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 | Despite a loss of just over £2000, we have enjoyed a successful year. We have improved our membership and appointed a new Co-ordinator who has injected stability and a range of new ideas and initiatives. We have enrolled new members who have all benefitted from the wide range of activities on offer. Our elderly members have seen improvements in their mental and physical health whilst enjoying their weekly contact with others in similar circumstances as themselves. Our service helps mitigate serious issues facing the elderly thus relieving local services and giving some respite to families and carers. Our Monday Club has been an integral part of our community for over fifty years now and we are proud of the service we provide thanks to the hard work of a very loyal group of volunteers. |
