## **Mission Heritage Centre (Sunderland Point)** ## **Bookings and Events** Mission Heritage Centre Trust annual report 2023/24 ## **Development Planning** The first phase of development was progressed to incorporate new facilities within the existing building. Works comprise a Kitchen and Accessible Toilet coupled with an external sewage treatment plant and drainage discharge facility. Contractors were appointed and instructed. Grant funding was drawn down to enable procurement of materials. Land Transfer and easements were agreed to enable installation of sewage treatments plant. Formal documentation to complete transfer was imminent. ## **Maintenance and Repairs** The Mission Hall was cleared of materials cleaned down and prepared for installation of a Summer Exhibition. A new Tramper Garage was planned, approved and installed by erection of a Wooden shed on a concrete base adjacent to the Mission Hall. This has freed up the Mission entrance porch which had previously housed the mobility scooter. ## **Fund raising** Grant Aid funding was drawn down from Lancashire Environmental Fund with further monies allocated for contract work completion. Local community charity support was received from 3RC towards long term garaging of the Tramper. Local charity funding was accrued via the Coop local charities support scheme. Revenue income from sales of local community history books and calendars provided a steady modest income. Local funds were raised from a Band Concert and Jumble sale during the year. Donations were received from a TV Film Company for use of Mission during filming. ## **Engagements and events** Summer Exhibition; ‘Going To the Sand’ was mounted during May to September Future events depend on details of timings and possible interactions with building works. The Trust continue to engage with relevant local authorities and organisations, Lancaster city council, Overton Parish Council, Morecambe Bay partnership and local schools. We continue to operate a hire service for the “More-to Explore” Tramper all terrain mobility vehicles.
