Section D
Achievements and performance
Summary of the main
achievements of the charity
during the year
Defjbrillator for Welland House, Barnstaple
A grant of £250 was made towards the cost of a defibrillator located outside
Welland House Children's Home on Chaddifortl Lane, Pilton. Welland House
is provided by Devon County Council to support families with children who
have complex health. physical, behavioural or additional needs.
The defibrillator is attached lo the OLrtside wall of the adjacent Pilton
Community College and is therefore of benefit to Welland House, the
Community College and the wider Pilton community.
Javelins for Pilton Community College
A grant of £SOO was made to Pilton Community College for the purchase of
new javelins as the current ones were no longer fit for purpose. These allow
students to learn how to throw a javelin of the correct length and weight. The
students enjoy athletics and can attend the college athletics club and lake part
in the highlight of the summer PE calendar, Sports Day. Students can also
further their interest in athletics by representing the school at North Devon,
Devon and English Schools, competitions.
There is a good community benefit to athletics, wlth lols of students
participating as part of a tutor group team on Sports Day or as part of the
school team in inter-school competitions. Cultural Capital is discussed at
school, allowing all students to experience key skills and knowledge,
regardless of their background. Javelin is an example of such an activity. If not
taught in schools, many students would miss out on the experience.
The Teachers Rock Choir and 8ritain's Got Talent
A grant of £300 was made to the Teacher's Rock Choir which was invited to an
audition with Britain's Got Talent. The choir consisted of 72 members, about
half from primary and secondary schools in North Devon and half from
teachers and educators in North Devon 8nd Somerset. One teacher and 3
pupils were from Pilton Bluecoat Academy.
This was a promotion of the arts within the Pilton and wider North Devon
community. The concert enabled Pilton Bluecoat school children to participate
in a once-in-a-lifetime performance and gave them the opportunity to sing in
the iconic London Palladium, perfonning with state-of-the-art sound systems
and lighting. The concert helped foster a love of singing and raised the profile
of music and the arts in school to promote self-confidence and a love of
learning.
