## **ANNUAL REPORT AND RETURN OCTOBER 2020 – FEBRUARY 2022** 

The year 2020/22 was an extremely challenging one and In order to comply with national and region al lockdown requirements has meant that the Association took the decision to cease all activities until the restriction were lifted and the safety of participants could be assured. 

This occurred in February 2022 when pandemic restrictions were finally eased and it is anticipated the Charity will restart its activities during 2022 

## **INCOME** 

During the period in question the charity received no income 

## **EXPENDITURE** 

The costs incurred by the charity  were fully met out of the cash balance held by the charity. 

## **CASH** 

The halting of expenditure has ensured that charity has kept sufficient funding in hand to cover the expected re start costs which it is hoping to re commence in 2021/2022 financial year, but this is subject to the prevailing requirements and Government requirements 

## **FUTURE** 

Whilst there is no clear direction or “crystal ball” out of the current pandemic, and no clear timeframe when activities can

commence with the vaccination programme in place, and a suggested road map in place, it is hoped that we can cautiously navigate our way out of the current circumstances and move carefully back to normal practice.
