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 | We built up a positive community presence as people have been able to easily walk in and find out what we can offer. Our willingness to help people with repairs and restoration of memorial benches, and other community assets and helping the local community during Covid-19 has helped spread positive information about us locally among all age groups by word of mouth, and in newspaper articles and on social media. Working with wood has been our first and main activity. We’ve been given tools (small hand tools and large pieces of machinery) and bought more with grant funding. |
The main achievements during this period are: 1. Running weekly workshop sessions throughout the period which our membership has enjoyed 2. Continuing to build our fund reserves in order to iron out future fluctuations in charity income. Membership Membership numbers and activity are limited by workshop space; however, membership is stable, we lost 2 members, and gained 3. The age distribution of the membership at year end was: 40 – 50yrs 1 member 50 - 65yrs 2 members 65 - 80yrs 10 members Over 80 1 member Community Engagement Key objective was to raise the profile of the Shed in the local community. To this end, shed members have been helping to maintain and restore memorial benches in the local area. A Facebook, Twitter, Instagram & LinkedIn page was used to publicise our activities. Covid19 effects The Shed was shut during the initial lockdown, and then again in the January lockdown; nearly all the craft fairs & fetes & Car Boot Sales we would have attended up to December 2020 were cancelled. These lead to loss of income, and increased sense of isolation amongst members. We have engaged with the majority of members through our WhatsApp group and a weekly Zoom call which have usually reached 7members. When we were able to open, we had to purchase additional supplies of PPE and hand sanitiser.
