## Section D                      Achievements and performance 

Park Pharmacy Trust is run almost entirely by volunteers but seeks grants in which to carry out specific projects in which it is able to employ people who can manage and train volunteers and support them in their activities. Volunteers work in the garden, help out at Children’s Industry Workshops and recall reminiscence sessions, are involved in fund raising activities such as garden parties and visits to residential homes, participate in exhibitions and participate in different workshops in which the historical collections of the trust are integrated in education of science, technology, industry, mathematics and literacy. 

During the 2021-2022 year, Park Pharmacy Trust had four young adults working on Kickstart projects. These placements were managed by the Devon and Plymouth Chamber of Commerce and the individuals were employed by Knight Scientific Limited who provided facilities for these young people. The minimum wage for their individual ages was provided by the DWP for six months. The Trust benefitted from having two gardeners employed in the medicinal garden and one designer and another museum assistant. These young people were encouraged to talk to visitors to the garden and the lodge and produced an illustrated guide the medicinal plants. The pond was relined in time for spawning of frogs and toads in February and March. A few special events days were held in the garden and flyers were designed to attract new visitors. 

Park Pharmacy Trust is now working very closely with the Plymouth Social Isolation Forum, which uses Thorn Park Lodge as its headquarters. The kickstart employees took an active role in admin support activities for a conference that was to be held in April 2022 and will be reported on in the next years report. 

The Trust attracts a very wide range of people from the community to its pharmaceutical museum and medicinal garden. It held a Pumpkin carving party in October 2021 which attracted over 40 people, many of whom were international

students from University of Plymouth as well as others who are seeking asylum in Plymouth and were told of this (and other events) by the Devon & Cornwall Refugee Support organisation. 

Other events included supporting Dementia week and the Plymouth History festival. We had many group visits including the U3A Social History Group and Saltash Heritage. The lodge is also used as a venue for Poetry reading. 

An unusual activity was the use of the museum as a place to dramatize a famous law case known as the Carbolic Smoke Ball case of 1892. This dramatic production was produced as a video for use by the Law Department of the University of Plymouth. The trust was successful in obtaining a grant from the National Lottery Awards for All for a project called _A novel approach to tacking Covid-19 loneliness_ .  Because of Covid-19, we were prevented from having face to face sessions but ran a number of Zoom sessions with different subjects such as: _Explore Mr Park’s chemist shop, What do Pharmacists have to do with teeth and hair, 10 Forgotten items form an oldfashioned chemist shop._ An evaluation video can be seen on the website. The trust also signed up to the National Lottery celebration week of projects. The Trust needs more space to work with children and adults and also needs to find ways to obtain an income to enable its sustainability. To this end it is working towards a Heritage Lottery Grant which has at its core the building of a Victorian style conservatory as a space of education were we can run workshops for adults and children as well as have space for a café. The senior designer from Salisbury Buildings, which specialises in buildings suitable for conservation areas, such as the Mannamead Conservation Area where Thorn Park Lodge is situated,  has produced wonderful designs of the two interconnected conservatories  Our discussions with the HLF have been very positive and we are hoping that the Council will support the Trust in this application. The project will teach people about the value of natural green spaces, understanding the need to provide different kinds of habitats for plants and animal, the importance of conservation, recycling and understanding how we all have a role to play in trying to undo (if possible) aspects of climate change.   We have had the promise of a donation of 130 sq metres of natural stone paving from Marshalls plc valued at £15,000 which can used towards match funding of any grants we might win.

## **Section E                    Financial review** 

The charity tries to ensure it has sufficient reserves to cover its **Brief statement of the** overheads, but this can be difficult at times. Thorn Park Lodge is owned **charity’s policy on reserves** by the Council but provided as a resource for the Community. The trust pays full commercial rent and rates (less statutory 80% relief) and when it is prevented from having visitors and groups who give donations of money attending then the trustees from time to time help out with loans. It is hoping the Council will be prepared to collaborate with the trust and reduce the rent to be in keeping with other council owned properties used by charities and community groups.
