## Crawshawbooth Community Association 

## **Trustees Annual Report** 

## **April 2022-March 2023** 

The Association had a  successful year, although we were still recovering from the disruption of Covid 19 and various lockdowns.     Our Out of School Club numbers plateaued during this year as many carers continued to work from home.    However, Holiday Club was much in demand from families across the whole of Rossendale. 

The Association again signed up to the Holiday Activities and Food Scheme, introduced by the Government and administered by Rossendale Leisure Trust, providing an extra 10 places per day during main holidays for children on free school meals. 

Our activities supporting people in need continued to grow during the year.   The Food Box which we providing first in the 2020 lockdown was increasingly used but also increasingly supported by both individuals and groups.     In particular, Rossendale Borough Council supported both the Box and our provision of emergency food parcels with grants. 

We were still trying to restart the Lunch Club.      We did provide an amazing Christmas Lunch, courtesy of Louise and her team.    This was also delivered to former members and people who had been supported with food parcels during lockdown as well as others living alone. 

The Community Library was still slow to attract users, despite increased numbers of willing volunteers coming forward to provide staffing for much increased opening hours. 

The Trustees would like to thank Louise and all our staff, and the amazing volunteers for all they did during what was not an easy year.
