||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.||
