Achievements and Performance
SORP reference
The village hall remained a well-used
community facility throughout the year,
hosting a variety of regular groups and
activities including mother and toddler
sessions, Women's Institute meetings, car
boot sales and ukulele groups.
A signrficant achievement during the year
was the completion and off icial opening of
the new inclusive play park. The project has
created a safe, accessible and welcoming
space where children of all abilities can play
together, providing enhanced opportunities
for recreation, inclusion and social
interaction for f amilies across the village.
Recognising the continued challenges faced
by some members of the community during
the cost-of-living crisis, the hall provided a
warm space where local residents could
meet, socialise and access support. We also
continued with the warm packs which were
distributed to people in need, and meals
were provided at community events. These
initiatives helped to reduce social isolation
and su
ort vulnerable residents.
Summary of the main
achievements of the charity,
identrfying the drfference 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 hall hosted a number of successful
community events during the year, including:
Brass on the Grass
Afternoon Tea
Summer Féte
Medium Night
Tea with Santa
Christmas Fayre
The trustees believe these activities have
made a positive contribution to communty
wellbeing. Feedback from residents
indicated that the hall's activities helped
reduce feelings of isolation and strengthened
community spirit, with many commenting
that the sense of village community had
been restored and enhanced.
