Hjälpande Händer Catering Section D                      Achievements and performance 

## **Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** 

We had a busy and successful year following the previous COVID impacted year.  We attended 24 events from locations in Swindon, to Cinema events in Longleat, Bath and Westonbirt.  It was good to have repeat attendance at events that we had previously visited and also to take on board new events. 

Our main purchase was the Canopy for the rear bed of the Ford Ranger to allow us to transport equipment in a dry and secure manner.  This was funded by the Wiltshire Foundation grant. 

The biggest events (revenue wise) were Cirencester Advent Market, Shrivenham Fete and MantonFest in Marlborough. 

Across the 24 events, we employed 12 young adults with Learning Difficulties, for a total of 230 hours of employment at £10 (Real National Living Wage), rising to £11 towards the end of the year. 

We trialled working at Stanton Park Kiosk for 10 months of the year and in March, took over the running of the Kiosk, operating at weekends throughout March.  We have a one-year contract, so expect hours and revenue to increase in 2022/23.  We are grateful to Every Cloud for giving us the opportunity to work at the Kiosk. 

We have planned for a similar or slightly increased number of events in 2022/23.
