The main reasons for leaving were pursuing other sporting interests/ hobbies or challenges due to the cost of living crisis. - Income has increased given the greater level of activity and participation in external events / regattas. This has enabled greater numbers of members to participate in events of all levels of skillset. - Over 400 adults enquired about learning to row with the club, we were able to run the course in line with the appropriate charitable requirements. This is an important source of income not only as a one-off but also as future membership fees. - All previous restrictions due to COVID-19 on racing ceased ahead of this season, with a return to a more normal competitive calendar of events. - The juniors were looking to a strong national schools' entry. The senior men got the strong results at the national level, with 2 individuals being selected for the junior Great British national team. Our master's men also had a strong season coming 1[st] and 2[nd] at the British masters regatta. The women had a strong season and qualified a 8+ and 2- for Henley Women's regatta. Training has continued through a robust programme and hope for further progress in 2023. - The senior squads have benefited from a lead and an assistant coach who have now been in post for a number of years. Junior coaching has a good structure, training and retention programme which is proving to be successful. The recreational and master's squads have been combined to better align the available resource and provide more opportunities to a wider range of members. - The safety and welfare of members remain a top priority, the officers responsible for this did a great job and always have full trustee and committee support. - We continue to monitor the governments covid updates and will follow any new guidelines. - This year we invested in 2 new boats which has helped us continue to develop the overall quality of our fleet. Reserves this year have been split between capital expenditure on new boats and refurbishment and rebuild of our clubhouse 29/06/2023 Glve here brlef detsils of any Items that the oxaminor wishes to dlsclose.
