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|Our centre was back into normal operation
from 2021. All our daily activities were
running again such as Tai Chi class,
Dancing Class, Mahjong game, Singing
Karaoke and Table Tennis. We also have
different kinds of parties and celebrations in
place, however, the numbers of participants
were not as many as used to be in the early
2021. It has been getting better each month.
Our centre coordinator continued supporting
members’ needs in acquiring public services
such as applying for driving licence for age
over 70’s, making GP appointment,
attending dentist appointment for translation,
getting vaccine certifications for travelling
purpose, applying for universal credits,
online processing of travelling
documentation, paying council tax bill,
applying for free bus pass, translation of
documents and etc. Since many public
services turnedinto online, ourelderly| |---|---|---| members replied a lot on our centre to support them. Our dancing teams were invited to perform for 2 care homes in Derbyshire in February. They were very successful and brought fun and enjoyment to the residents very much. The team has been seeking for more opportunities to perform to the public in the near future. Our 2[nd] hand shop was in operation this year. We received lots of donations from members such as calligraphies, used electrical appliances, bric-a-brac, books and etc. It does help our centre to generate some extra incomes. We still did not have a large scale Chinese New Year celebration this year due to Covid. We believe the big celebration will be resumed next year. Before Chinese New Year, we had received a donation of hundreds of New Year Banners ( 揮春 ) from the Hong Kong Calligraphy Society. We distributed them to all our members and used them to decorate our centre as well during Chinese New Year. We supported a community event during the summer of 2021. An acclaimed theatre company, Told by An Idiot, had had 2 days of performance in our centre. It was a fun show for families in Derby. There were 6 free shows being held altogether. Over 100 families were entertained during the 2 days. All in all, the centre was returning to normal operation in mid-2022 and we expected more new members joining our centre from the nearby areas. **Additional information (optional)** You may choose to include further statements where relevant about: Para 1.41 Achievements against objectives set Para 1.41 Performance of fundraising activities against objectives set Para 1.41 Investment performance against objectives Other ## **Financial review** |Review of the charity’s
