**A**|Para 1.17 and

**eight talks on heritage, historical,**
**heritage and archaeology related**
**matters and along with Pendle**
**Archaeology Group (PAG), a sub group**
**of the Friends, provide educational and**
**informative walks. However many of**
**these activities were curtailed by the**
**lockdown requirements of the Covid**
**pandemic. We resumed activities as**
**and when we were able to. Cancellations**
**also included a tour to a local mediaeval**
**Hall, Himalayan Gardens and our own**
**money raising Garden Event.**
**We have maintained communication**
**with our membership and the general**
**public via monthly e mail or Mailchimp,**
**a bi annual hard copy newsletter – to**

**tables for the barn. For the café - tables,**
**chairs and new flooring.**| |||**All of which benefit our members, PHC**
**itself, customers at the café and**
**attendees to all our events. It is difficult**
**at this point, to quantify the difference**
**made to attendees and customers**
**especially in regard to the effect that the**
**pandemic had on hospitality and**
**heritage sectors.**
**We had a successful money raising**
**social event with entertainment provided**
**by one of our patrons Bobby Elliott.**
**STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES. Re Para 19.**

**benefit.**
**NB Items for the Museum have not been**

achievements of the charity,

charity’s work has made to
the circumstances of its
beneficiaries and any wider
benefits to society as a
whole.|Para 1.20|**We aimed to carry out a programme of**
**eight talks on heritage,**
**historical/archaeology related matters**

**events benefit people by stimulating**
**interest and curiosity in areas they may**
**not know about. Gathering together as a**
**group improves social health espe**
**cially in a demographic where some**
**members may live alone. It is difficult at**
**this point, to quantify the difference**
**made to attendees and customers**
**especially in regard to the additional**
**effect that the pandemic has had on**
**hospitality and heritage sectors.**
**Certainly PHC & the staff have benefited**
**from a more attractive café environment**
