Section D Achievements and performance Summary of the main achievements of the chaiity during the year This year has been one of finally getting past the Covid period, which took its toll on both mernbership and wellbeing. We welcomed three new member& one of whom is recovering from a stroke and finds the comradeship a welcome change. The Shed continues to support our local organizations, such as the village panty and hamper scheme, while helping with community members, requests to make items for them. Sadly. this year w¢ did not get a day at the Winchester Cathedral MarkeL so our income stream was down a little. However, we did support the Easter and Christmas fayres within our village. The range of items we offer always has something new as we strive to provide good quality wocthn items for sale. Both local churches (Twyford and Colden Common) receive help and donations throughout the year. The junior school and play groups also benefit as we strive to be proactive in helping them. All of the equipment purchased last year has been used to good effecL and we are exploring increasing our range with the purchase of a laser cutter printer, which we hope can help offer more services to the community. General maintenance continues with additional reproofing of the structure. On the social side, trips to the Didcot Railway Museum proved to be very popular, as was the trip to the Air Museum at Tangmere. There is also a very active gin rummy card school. Other activities have included BBQ& and quiet days. All of our trips are offered to anyone from the village to join us. TAR Juty 2024
