Achievements and Performance

	SORP reference
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	ROC Dawlish continues to play a key role in fostering community collaboration by encouraging partnership working between charities and other local agencies for the public benefit. The charity has continued to provide strategic input into the town-wide Covid-19 response initiative, Helping Dawlish, especially through liaison with local schools. Most centrally in this, the charity has formally taken on running the Dawlish Community Larder, a small- scale referral-only project that provides emergency food and basic groceries to local people in need. Through collaboration with local supermarkets and FareShare, the charity has also been able to reduce food waste and provide healthy fresh food to local schools and families in need. ROC Dawlish has also set up a pilot family mentoring scheme, through collaboration with Dawlish College, the local Secondary School. Whilst still in its early days, this scheme promises hope for transformation in local families struggling to access education, for whatever reason.
