Annual Report for the Period 5th October 2020 to 30 June 2021
The Burradon and Camperdown Community Association(“BACCA”) was officially registered on 5 October 2020. BACCAhas suffered the loss of one of its founder members, Gladys Haskins who sadly passed on 13 December 2020. Councillor Ray Glindon also passed on 20 April 2020. Gladys and Ray were both important contributors to the campaign to revive the village and create new amenities and opportunities for the community. Gladys and Ray will be sadly missed.
June and Ken Roddam have also moved to Ireland and both were popular members of the community and will be greatly missed,however, they leave with the goodwill and best wishes Of BACCA members and the local residents. Fred Moxon also moved to live near his family.
In the period since the registration of BACCA, the community had to contend with the Governments’ Covid restrictions and most of the activities in the village have been suspended due to the precautionary closure of the venues.
There is a genuine possibility that the community activities may not resume which would have a devastating effect on the lives of many of the most vulnerable residents in the village. Furthermore, events both pre and post covid demonstrated the importance of a community organisation to represent and protect the interests of the residents. Although the present crisis within the community may not be as serious as 1997, both BACCA and the other groups in the village will have to confront and overcome the challenge. It will be necessary for the Trustees to consider the Trust’s future priorities and projects to revive community spirit and the quality of life of its residents.
