Section D Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year

BASE Chair Report 20th October 2022

BASE is gradually growing as more organisations are getting in touch and hiring equipment. The new premises are working well and income has returned over the last year. Increased demand and usage upon the equipment leads to increasing wear and tear and therefore this year BASE have purchased over a £1000 worth of new walking boots.

BASE continues to develop its website to provide information to existing and potential new service users.

The number of volunteers, that are the key to the success of the charity, remains stable.

BASE are particularly grateful to one of their trustees who raised over £1000 for the charity this year by taking on a LEJOG charity bike ride.

The BASE Chairman would like to thank all of the BASE Trustees and volunteers for their continued time and commitment. BASE will keep working together to ensure it provides a quality service whilst at the same time ensuring being involved with BASE is an enjoyable and rewarding activity.
