iii.

The principal funding by this charity since it was established has been to acquire funding to enable the Saints Community Project to revert to its pre-Covid activities and to build on its success, thus offering its benefits to an increased number of people. The project offers a weekly Wednesday coffee morning with an optional lunch; there are occasional themed days and there are periodic outings (this year the “regulars” have requested a visit to the Oxford Christmas Market for example). The scheme is intended essentially to benefit the isolated, the lonely, the elderly, all able-bodied and disabled.
**Summary of the main** Since the charity is in its early stages, there is ongoing work to promote **activities undertaken for the** sport within the community to promote health and wellbeing. We wish to **public benefit in relation to** encourage walking football for men and women, children to play sport at **these objects (include within** all levels, football for adult women.

Section D Achievements and erformance p The charity has obtained substantial funding from the National League **Summary of the main** Trust to underwrite the Saints Community Project as detailed in an earlier **achievements of the charity** section. **during the year** Although support was offered during lockdown, many of the former attendees have been reticent to emerge from their self-imposed isolation and health problems have often developed during that period. Whilst communication was maintained during lockdown with periodic doorstep visits and the provision of some home-cooked meals, it has been gratifying to note the gradual build-up of the regular attendees returning as their confidence grows and to see the arrival of more and more new faces.
