Achlevements and perfornlance
The period covered in these accounts has conlinued to be challengin& In the Federation, and in
many Wls. we note that It can be difficult to find volunteers and this has an impact on the Board
of Trustees. who have reduced to 8 members. and for individual Wts who cannot always find
committee mellbbers. As a result the numberof Wls in the Federation continues to decrease.
Our Annual Council meeting al Ilfracombe in 2024 proved to ￿ successful despite the fact that
we did not book a celebrity speaker and it made a 5rnall surplu5 forthe First time in many years.
The Annual Carol toncert at Exeter was also successtul and we were able to donate the
collertion to charity In memory of a forn)er Tft￿tEe.

who wish to buy IL It conbnues to be the ￿gUlar method of COmrnUEkication with our rnembers
