Achievements and Performance

| Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole. |
Para 1.20 | The Club remains involved with various local foodbanks and other groups assisting needy families in the area. Whilst responding to individual charity requests, the Club has also continued to monitor the situation in the local community and identify specific needs as they become apparent. Whilst much of the assistance given is financial, other forms of help are sometimes given and an example of this can be found in our Christmas fundraising activities. Manning a local Christmas grotto not only raised funds but also gave local families a brief much needed period of enjoyment. “Zoom” sessions with Father Christmas were also provided (not as part of the fundraising) for young cancer sufferers. |
