			Alton Community Share was launched in June to provide a library

charity's policy on reserves				to get out and about and spend the funds.
				Our eco hub was eventually abandoned after several deferrals as	it
				became dear that social distancing was going to continue much longer
				than initially thought. Some ofthe grants we had received to support		the
				hub have been transferred to other projects, mainly our anticipated		AGAN
				Local project which will need a part time employee to co-ordinate	work at
				a much smaller scale within individual wards ofthe town.
				Our EcoFair had to be deferred to July 2021 due to the lockdown.	We
				were able to get donor permission to defer the grants already received.
				Alton Repair Cafa came under our umbrella during this financial year. It
				had been operating separately until the organiser moved on and a new
				volunteer within AGAN took it over. They brought with them F1905.
				At the end ofthe financial year we still had F.1745in our account waiting
				to be aid out to the Gumbi Education Fund followin our fund raiser.
