## Section D
## Achievements and performance
Following on from the lifting of Covid restrictions, we experienced a very slow **Summary of the main** take up of our activities and facilities; many people seemed to be reluctant to **achievements of the charity** start mixing again. **during the year** However, the second half of the year saw a steady increase. A significant refurbishment of the building was completed, funded by a grant from FCC. This included internal and external redecoration; new areas of flooring; upgrades to the electrics and new lighting; new white goods in the kitchen and new thermal-lined curtains. We also opened our ManShed, which will be somewhere for men to mix with each other and hopefully be able to open up about problems. Again , we experienced a slow take-up. The end of the year saw us being hit by a threefold increase in our heating costs and this will continue into the next year. This is unavoidable, but some of the improvements we carried out will help to mitigate the financial situation. During the year, we developed a valuable relationship with Cultura Trust, which we hope will be mutually beneficial in the future.
We also continued our involvement with the Maryport Cultural Consortium.
