| Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole. |
Para 1.20 | The main achievement of the Trust during 2022 was operating through very difficult economic circumstances as a result of the ongoing Covid pandemic. Careful budgeting of expenditure has allowed us to maintain, heat and keep the Hall open as usual despite huge unforeseen increases in utility charges. We have attracted new groups and organisations offering communal, social activities and have become a hub for local businesses to hold their meetings and events. We have hosted various community events including the Queen’s Platinum celebrations in June whereby we held a Jubilee Village Afternoon Tea Party and a Jubilee Sunday Lunch for the community- both were well attended. This year, as the world gets back to normal, members of the community have held christenings, weddings and wakes at the Hall. For the third year running we have staged a production of Somerset Opera and hosted Bridgwater Carnival events. Our sports facilities are used by local sports clubs including tennis, football, boules. We continue to provide facilities for the Youth Club and Social Club - a venue that is particularly appreciated by many of the older members of our community.. |
