## Activities

**Objects:** TO PROMOTE SOCIAL INCLUSION AND RELIEVE THE NEEDS OF THOSE AFFECTED BY SOCIAL ISOLATION OR LONELINESS FOR THE PUBLIC BENEFIT BY ASSISTING PEOPLE OVER THE AGE OF 18 YEARS OLD (PARTICULARLY BUT NOT EXCLUSIVELY MEN), WITHIN CLEVEDON AND THE SURROUNDING AREA, FROM BECOMING EXCLUDED, ISOLATED OR LONELY AND ASSISTING THEM TO INTEGRATE INTO THE COMMUNITY AND SOCIETY THROUGH THE PROVISION OF FACILITIES IN WHICH THEY CAN MEET SOCIALLY TO UNDERTAKE, JOINTLY OR INDIVIDUALLY, WOODWORK, METALWORK, CRAFT, CREATIVE, OR RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES, LEARN OR PASS ON SKILLS AND KNOWLEDGE AND SUPPORT EACH OTHER. FOR THE PURPOSE OF THIS CLAUSE: &#x27;SOCIAL ISOLATION&#x27; IS AN OBJECTIVE MEASURE OF THE NUMBER OF CONTACTS THAT PEOPLE HAVE. ITS ABOUT THE QUANTITY AND NOT THE QUALITY OF RELATIONSHIPS. &#x27;LONELINESS&#x27; IS A SUBJECTIVE FEELING ABOUT THE GAP BETWEEN A PERSON’S DESIRED LEVEL OF SOCIAL CONTACT. IT REFERS TO THE PERCEIVED QUALITY OF THE PERSON’S RELATIONSHIPS. &#x27;SOCIALLY EXCLUDED&#x27; MEANS BEING EXCLUDED FROM SOCIETY, OR PARTS OF SOCIETY, AS A RESULT OF ONE OF MORE OF THE FOLLOWING FACTORS: RETIREMENT, UNEMPLOYMENT; FINANCIAL HARDSHIP; BEREAVEMENT OR OLD AGE; DISABILITY OR ILL HEALTH (PHYSICAL OR MENTAL).

**Activities:** We meet weekly to pursue individual or group projects, mostly enjoyable and useful wood, metalwork or craft. We make small wooden items to raise funds and do outreach projects for other charities. We enjoy our coffee breaks with biscuits and sometimes cakes when we discuss matters of common interest. We say: It&#x27;s not about the destination but more about the journey. If it&#x27;s not fun we don&#x27;t do it!
