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.		 Following an extremely successful inaugural year, the Band had
the substance, focus and iden2ty to develop opera2ons and
capabili2es.
The disrup2ons of the Covi-19 pandemic did not fully disappear
2ll the second half of the year but, by then, experience and
enthusiasm had enabled a number of playing and earning
opportunies, including a return to tradi2onal band contes2ng.
Performances gave beneft both to players and event
supporters, fulflling personal enjoyment and recrea2on needs,
besides large numbers comprising the audiences who obtained
cultural enjoyment and enhanced well-being.
Prepara2on for resumed event par2cipa2on exercised the
Band's abili2es and infrastructure once again providing
agreeable diversion from work and life pressures.
Later in the year we were able to take our full part in the
restored Whit Friday celebra2ons fundamental to our local
heritage. It was a stage for the band and its new iden2ty,
besides an opening for new and developing players to
experience belonging.
All this substan2ally contributed to the a<rac2on and
development of new and improving learners. By the end of the
year a sizeable group was in place and making admirable
playing progress besides enjoying the atmosphere of the group.
A<emp2ng to preserve and expand the engagement of this
group and further recruits will be one of the Band's pleasant
challenges.
