We set up a team of 60 volunteers that could provide services such as picking up shopping or prescriptions and dog walking or friendly phone calls. This scheme was really appreciated by Ribble Valley Borough Council and proved very successful in consolidating the sense of community spirit in our villages. Readstone Help and Assist has continued to be a vital resource for our community. We have 550 regular users and contributors, As hoped the Help and Assistance has morphed over time from pure covid related issues to all kinds of community support. It is a joy to see the members finding innovative uses for the community network we have created.

Section D Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year

During this period our charity worked hard at bringing all the elements together that would put us in the best position to renovate improve and breathe new life into the serviceable but neglected building on East View in Read. The trustees worked tirelessly fundraising and collecting donations, preparing and adapting plans as our circumstances developed, and communicating with our community, in person and via our Facebook page.

We worked together with Read Parish Council, Simonstone Parish Council, Ribble Valley Borough Council and many other organisations. We made extensive use of modern technology setting up a website a Facebook page and a donations page. We had some trustees attending meetings over video conferencing when they were unable to be physically present. Our Trustees communicate with each other using an instant messaging application on our phones for speed, as well as by email. From the April 2021 until the March 2022, the building was mostly closed to the public. We have encouraged our group leaders to continue with activities when it has been possible and safe to do so. We have seen a substantial benefit to our community over this period with the outreach arm of our Village Hall being well used and well supported for a variety of activities. We have had a very positive impact on our community and the scope of our contribution is still increasing despite the onset of a global pandemic. We would like to thank all our supporters, volunteers and donors for their fantastic support. Together we are stronger.

Note 15 Additional Disclosures

The following are significant matters which are not covered in other notes and need to be included to provide a proper understanding of the accounts. If there is insufficient room here, please add a separate sheet.

Our Charity was set up to Purchase the Former United Reformed Church Building in Read. As of the 31st March 2019 we had been informed that we had submitted a successful bid to purchase the property, however the transaction wasn't completed until 12th June 2019. Our generous supporters committed to donating a fixed amount each month to support the purchase of the building. This support has been maintained throughout the current pandemic. Our charities fixed costs continue to be covered by regular standing order donations. We have been able to pay our bills as they fall due despite the government imposed lockdowns. The pandemic has given us a unique opportunity to continue with our building renovations and this year we have improved our garden facilities with a £20,000 a donation from the Wham Foundation of £20,000 to improve our outdoor space. This project was started soon after our year end and we have been making great progress on creating a flexible, environmentally friendly, green,sustainable space for use as a community garden and for further fundraising events.
