relieving the needs of| |||||||those people and assisting
them to| |||||||integrate
into society through

against our objectives:|| |||||1.|As previously
stated we provide a premises/| ||||||workshop space where older people meet up| ||||||to five times a week and engage
in| ||||||woodworking
and other activities.
We| ||||||undertake
small personal
projects or other| ||||||larger projects for local groups and charities.| ||||||Some ofthe items are sold to raise funds for| ||||||the charity.
The group has up to43| ||||||members
at present who can meet up to| ||||||meet five times a week. Anecdotal evidence| ||||||we have gathered
from within the group| ||||||shows our members
benefit from the social| ||||||activity and interactions
with others. Some| ||||||members
ofthe group have formed
firm| ||||||friendships
and meet outside the times ofthe| ||||||formal group and some regularly
meet on a| ||||||weekly on-line ZOOM meeting.| |||||2.|Some ofour membership
have been| ||||||professional
trades people, some are| ||||||experienced
in DIY and they share their| ||||||knowledge
and experience
with others
in the| |||||3.|group.
We have been particularly
successful| ||||||developing
relationships
with other charities| ||||||and groups. We are now established
in our| ||||||workshop
within a community
hub operated| ||||||by the Strafford Town Trust. We have,
in| ||||||return for rent free accommodation| ||||||undertaken
small projects, such as providing| ||||||shelving,
notice boards etc. within the| ||||||building
for the Trust and other charities| ||||||based
in the building.
However,
From June| ||||||2021 we have had to contribute
to the| ||||||running
costs ofthe accommodation.
We| ||||||have in the past, in co-operation
with the| ||||||Shakespeare
Lions, constructed
a Santa's| ||||||sleigh for their Christmas
charity collections.| ||||||and undertaken
maintenance
projects on this| ||||||Santa's sleigh. We also this year have formed| ||||||a mutually
beneficial
relationship
with| ||||||Compton
Verney Art Gallery.| |||||4.|The Mens Shed's, home in a Charity
Hub| ||||||created by the Strafford Town Trust provides| ||||||the security which we need for the future,| ||||||although
we will now have to make a financial| ||||||contribution
to the running
costs.| |||||5.|There was no shed activity between
January| ||||||2021 and June 2021due to Covid-19| ||||||restrictions.
This resulted
in reduced income| ||||||from sale ofgoods.
Membership
fees were| ||||||waived
until the beginning
of2022 when| ||||||there would be more information
on the| ||||||returning
numbers
to the shed, following| ||||||Covid19 lockdowns
and fees could be better| ||||||determined
to help meet the contributions| ||||||now required
by our landlords.
Current funds| ||||||allow for this but the subject offuture| ||||||fundraising
will be addressed
during the new| ||||||year.| ## |Financial
