| Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the diference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its benefciaries and any wider benefts to society as a whole. |
Para 1.20 | Our principal achievement this year was the completion of project to rebuild the main body of the Hall. A further £70,750 was received in grants and donations, the construction was started in February 2021 and was signed of by CWAC in November 2021. The end result is a Hall which is proving to be much more attractive to the Community as whole. Whilst several of the groups that were hiring our premises prior to the pandemic have returned, we have also taken - and continue to take - bookings from a number of new community groups as well as individuals. Following the relaxation of COVID restrictions, face-to-face meetings recommenced in May 2021 although we did have to hire alternative premises until September, when we were able to return to our own Hall. Section meetings combined a mixture of games and activities towards scouting awards as described on the scouting website scouts.org.uk. For the younger section these included craft work, communication skills, internet safety, team work and road safety. We were able to recommence outdoor boating activities with additional safeguards to limit the dangers of Covid infection. Members were able to Sail and Kayak throughout the summer months. COVID-based reluctance meant that once again we decided not to hold any of our traditional fund-raising events during the course of the year but even so, after completion of the reconstruction project our total fnancial assets stood at £17,525 on 28 February 2022. |
