Achievements and Performance

| Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole. |
Para 1.20 | The Recreation Ground is a focal point within the village and is very well used by adults and children all year round. The Recreation Ground Committee has over the years been successful in securing grant funding to build the all-weather court, a sports pavilion, a Children’s Play area and a skateboard park. During the first lockdown the Recreation Ground was only open for the community to exercise or walk around the field but as the restrictions were reduced the skateboard park was open and then from July 2020 the Children’s Play area was opened subject to certain conditions. The play equipment was sanitised once a week with users sanitising it when they used it. The Recreation Ground provided a large open space which was accessible during those difficult days. |
