|||
| activities, | projects or | services | purpose —with an objective "To bring model | |||

| wellbeing and fun**. This expands the |
||||||
| learning dimension to include the additional |
||||||
| physical and emotional benefits ofactive |
||||||
| participation in a wide-ranging creative |
||||||
| activity and pro-active engagement with local |
||||||
| people, societies and organisations in |
||||||
| pursuit of the charitable objective. |
||||||
| Activities are managed from a 1400sq ft |
||||||
| studio and workshop in Bethersden, near |
||||||
| Ashford in Kent, where a permanent display |
||||||
| ofmodel railways and railway artefacts are |
||||||
| well established. In the period covered by |
||||||
| the report we welcomed a total of650 | ||||||
| visitors during 42 days when the studio was | ||||||
| open. | ||||||
| The displays and artefacts continue to be |
||||||
| maintained and operated by a team of |
||||||
| around 30active volunteers who attend on |
||||||
| Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. The |
||||||
| volunteer group now includes five young |
||||||
| adults with autism in an age range from 18 |
||||||
| to 29,who are benefitting from personal |
||||||
| development gained by full integration within |
||||||
| our volunteer team to learn new skills and |
| particularly confidence with new people and |

| The Saturday group of 8-14 year olds that |
|||
| started in 2022 with post-COVID Reconnect |
|||
| Funding from Kent County Council have fully |
|||
| integrated into the volunteer team. |
|||
| In November 2022 we planned and |
|||
| organised a major event in Ashford Town |
|||
| Centre to celebrate 180years of railways in |
|||
| Ashford. Working with Ashford Museum, |
|||
| Ashford Library, Ashford Model Railway Club |
|||
| and others we created photographic and |
|||
| artefact displays telling the story of Ashford*s |
|||
| railway heritage alongside an exhibition of |
|||
| model railways, the first in Ashford for 22 |
|||
| years. The weekend exhibition attracted 750 |
|||
| visitors across seven venues and gained | |||
| very positive feedback from Ashford | |||
| Borough Council, a key stakeholder in any |
|||
| future plans to secure a permanent home. |
|||
| In February 2023 we attended Ashford |
|||
| Model Railway Club's annual show in |
|||
| Tenterden. | |||
| In March 2023we attended the London |
|||
| Festival of Railway Modelling at Alexandra |
|||
| Palace to exhibit and operate a major new | |||
| donation to the AIMREC collection. Melton | |||
| Mowbray North is a scale (1:148)model of |
|||
| the Leicestershire town set in the early |
|||
| 1950s, built to a very high quality and a goof | |||
| promotional tool for the project. |
|||
| Over the summer of2023we attended three |
|||
| local events in Ashford with a promotional |
|||
| stand and portable model railway, supporting |
|||
| other local organisations in the process. |
|||
| These were RBLI Armed Forces Day in | |||
| June, Newtown Summer fair in July and the |
|||
| Weald of Kent steam rally in August. |
|||
| Over the August bank holiday we attended | |||
| the Vintage Transport Trust's Rally at |
|||
| Fawley Hill for all four days with the Melton |
|||
| Mowbray North Exhibition Layout. |
