A.  Three COPD based exercise classes per week, with numbers at each class increased over the year. 

B.  We started Group coach trips out, for the benefit of all members, but mainly those that no longer drive, or if they do, they don’t drive far these days.  The coach trips have been a great success and we have visited local gardens and places of interest in our area. 

C.  We took part in a Health and Well Being Fayre, which was held at the Leisure Centre where we exercise, and we took part in a demonstration of the exercises we do and had a table promoting our group at the Fayre.   We also had a stand at the Alverstoke Village Michaelmas Fayre on 30[th] September 2023, where we promote our group. 



D.   We had a ‘Free September’ at class, where members didn’t have to pay to exercise.  This was to try and encourage numbers again after they didn’t recover well after Covid.  It has worked very well.
