Membership increased to 16 (inc 2 priv) during the period, however Derrick (Priv) has decided
not to renew his membership. We are most grateful to him for his many years of dedicated
service.
Fundraisingg events and awards
Over this period the Club has made considerable efforts to get our fundraising events back Into
action after the restrictions of the Covid pandemic. We have been able to hold our main annual
fvndraising events including The Golf Day, 10k Run (twice) and The Fun SwirrL. We held a quiz
night and also "Summerfesf on The Great Field which was designed to be a community event
centered on Children and offering a showcase for local charities - it went down well. The Easter
Egg Raffle was not held again this year, due to the risk of anoth8r loss rf COVID restrictions
should be imposed once more. The 100 dub made a £500 donation to the Charity Account once
more.

Primary Care Trust to help The Great Field Parkrun get estsblished. We introduced ROAR into

taken Message in a bottle to a k)cal care forum. We were able to resume our Christmas
Collections and collected £851 outside Tesco.
We have again provided a total of five annual awards to pupils at four local schools who have
given exceptional service to their communty, and this year we also managed to attend end of
year assemblies and present the awards ourselves at the 3 Middle Schools.
