Section D Achievements and performance
Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year
Unfortunately, due to the Covid 19 pandemic we suffered significant setbacks to building up the new charity during the financial year. Several planned charity events were postponed due to the lockdown restrictions and ultimately cancelled altogether.
The website has also enabled us to reach out to possible sponsors to boost income for the charity.
Work has also been undertaken in planning for future charity fundraising events to be held in 2022.
The goal of the charity during this period has been to maintain public awareness of the charity and our goals with a view to offering a greater public benefit in the coming years.

Brief statement of the charity’s policy on reserves
The charity’s policy is to build up reserves to enable the purchase of a holiday home to enable us to offer year-round breaks for bereaved families.
Following recent challenges as a result of the Covid 19 pandemic we are currently reviewing the policy to enable us to provide greater short term public benefit whilst also working towards the long term aims of the charity.
We have this year been able to provide our first break for a recently bereaved family.
