Section D Achievements and performance
Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year
Unfortunately the events in 2020 had to be cancelled as a result of the lockdowns and other restrictions in place during the pandemic.
The charity received a small amount of donations from various sources that had rolled over from the previous year and took advantage of the lack of outgoing expenses to make donations to other local charities that help the organisers run some of the events.
It is hoped that the easing of restriction in 2021 will allow the event to run again next year.
