Section D Achievements and performance Summary of the main achievements of the ¢harity during the year Memberships remained high al Ihe slart of 2020, however, as the end of our financial year 2019120 approached, we were all shocked to find ourselves encountering a major health crisis and serious disruption lo our activities because oflhe pandemic. To maximise member and community safety, the trustees decided lo slop group training sessions weeks prior to the official government lockdown. Our events are popular with members and our bcal community. They have also provided some funding. mainly through the support of local sponsors, and they have enabled us lo purchase some resources and maintain our very low membership fees. This supports our aim of making our activit￿5 as accessible as possible. After months of planning for the 2020 events, il was all brought lo a shuddering halt. The trustees and core volunteers within the club spent many hours trying to evaluate what was possible before we had to accept that we would have lo cancel all events for 2020. Oespite taking out event insurance. the terms did not cover the pandemic. This hil our finances badty but. fortunately. the vast majority of entrants to the TATA Sleelman wished lo be transferred lo the 2021 event. Their decision lo transfer places lessened the immediale financial impact but focu55ed the trustees. attention on restoring our finances Ihroughout Ihe year. We used our social media channels to stay in regular contact with members to molivale them lo slay active and support their well being. We worked wrth other running clubs lo create a number of virtual inter-club relays that encouraged members lo participate with solo, safe runs. Despite the hardship endured by many. we were enormously grateful for the response from members lo our appeals to participate in our lockdown challenges and raise funds for the NHS. In lolal. a sum of £1000 was passed to support local NHS services. Throughout the year, we supported and promoled the government advice and only returned lo dub sessions when we were certain we could compty with all guidance. As reslriclions were lrfted, the trustees worked with national goveming l)odies lo enable members to return to activity safely. A range of protocols were put in place and a number of new training spaces were found and evaluated. Recognition In October. the club recognised a number of members.
