Rogiet Community Junction
Chair’s Report – August 2021
Again this year has been hampered by Covid. In September 2020 we started a new initiative called Cakeaway. As we were unable to meet in the hall because of restrictions we opened up outside under gazebos to sell our cakes. It was very successful and when restrictions eased enough to let people in the hall we started doing bacon rolls as well. We reached a lot of new people through this initiative as they were working from home and would often walk by. We were very grateful to get a grant from GAVO to help us in this. We were able to get gazebos, tables, bollards, hand sanitisers among other things to make it possible.
There were times again when we had to close due to government lockdowns but we were delighted that in April we were able to start Cakeaway again. By the end of May we were able to open up in the hall again, admittedly with just four tables, but it was a real milestone to be able to do that.
There have been several small fundraising initiatives for the shop and café project. We have sold face masks, plants, jams and chutneys to raise money. Also one of our members takes the left over cakes into the local primary school to sell to the teachers. This helps reduce waste, bring in funds for the project and also strengthen our links with the community.
We supported the local Rogiet Wildlife Friendly group one Saturday as they did a litter pick. We opened up with cakes and drinks for the whole village and the litter pickers had a free cake and drink provided by us. Again, another way of bringing the village together.
The Shop and Café project continues to progress although slower than we would like due to the constraints that Covid has brought.
We look forward to a hopefully more normal year ahead and one where we break ground on the Shop and Café Project.
Again a big thank you to all our volunteers and all those who have supported us through these difficult times.
