Section D Achievements and performance
| Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year |
During 2021, the charity has only been able to provide an increased number of respite retreats in comparison to 2020 due to the global Covid 19 Pandemic. The Weymouth Bay Holiday park remained shut in March 2021, but we have had a busy Summer and Autumn. The pandemic also effected our fundraising ability as well but this has improved recently with some small but regular fundraising events, including raffles and bucket shakes at local sporting events. |
