Section D                      Achievements and performance 

## **Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** 

**Background** 

The Charity was established in 2017 to take over the operation of Brandon Community Hall (otherwise known as Brandon Colliery Miners’ Welfare Hall) from the existing operating charity: Brandon Community Association Hall (Reg No 1075364)(“BCAH”). 

The plan to effect this handover has been developed in agreement with Durham County Council who are the Custodian and Management Trustee of Brandon Community Hall. The purpose of the transition is to use a more modern form of charitable legal entity, a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO). 

During the handover there continues to be a period of parallel running of the hall between the two charities. However, the charity BCAH is now dormant and will be retained until the lease arrangements for the new charity BCAD have been completed. This matter is in the hands of Durham County Council 

## **Activities** 

This third year of operation has seen the practical completion of the hand-over of the day to day operation of the community hall from BCAH to BCAD. 

The community hall has been successfully operated over the year, with improvements to the facilities through increased repairs, maintenance and renewals. However, the lockdown for COVID which started in March 2020 effectively closed the hall to all activities except for the Food Bank which ran an appointment only service.
