**Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document:** The charity works for the public benefit having as its objects: 

- (1) Reduced isolation of rural community . 

- (2) To improve the parish of Toft Newton to encourage the goodwill and evolvement of the wider community to foster community spirit and encourage civic pride 

- (3) To provide a village hall for use by all residents of the parish

## **Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects:** 

The activities of the Charity were still affected by the Covid pandemic and the restrictions placed on it. 

We have received generous grants and the Trustees decided to help financially to users of the Hall by offering a rent freeze from restrictions being lifted in July through to December. This was to encourage users to get back out and socialise again after having been restricted for the previous 2 years. 



## **Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year:** 

We managed to offer the Village Hall to bookings in a Covid safe way following Government guidelines. 

Continued to keep the Charity functioning financially during a very difficult year when income was cut to less than 25% of annual returns. 

## **Brief statement of the charities policy on reserves:** 

We did receive very generous grant funding via the Governments Covid funding while we were locked down. 

This has allowed the Charity to have a large reserve of funding now. We implemented a rent holiday to hirers in 2021 to help them recover from the pandemic and get people to start going out again.
