As of mid-March 2020 the Covid pandemic has stopped us rehearsing and performing as a band. We managed to do 3 outdoor socially distanced rehearsal in July & August 2020 and 6 socially distanced indoor rehearsals in September & October at Burslem Cricket Club before we were locked down again. **Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)** The only Gigs that we were able to carry out were outside the Cenotaph in Hanley and Penkhull Church busking Christmas Carols. We continued the Kids Band via Zoom, giving one to one individual weekly lessons and a Zoom get together for them once a week. We kept in contacts with the main band via Zoom and Facebook. We have held weekly quizzes and meetings via Zoom and kept in contact and supported our players throughout this difficult time. We are hoping that restrictions are lifted mid next year so that we can continue rehearsals & concerts. I can confirm that the trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit. ## **Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)** You **may choose** to include further statements, where relevant, about: - policy on grantmaking; - policy programme related investment; - contribution made by volunteers. **TAR** March **2012** 3 Section D Achievements and performance **Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** Due to Covid and the restrictions imposed we have carried out only minimal activity this year.
