Achievements and Performance during the Year This has been another busy year for the club and its various projects. Whilst we realise the club plays a vital role within the parish for its many young members, not all young people wish to access the facilities we hold on site. We have looked at the activities and projects we provide and have made some changes once again to the programmes. We continue detachedloutreach work with those young people who are harder to reach and encourage them to either take part in activitieslprojects at the club or with the help of other agencies, to cater for their needs. Over the last few years the club has undergone extensive refurbishment, both inside and out. and work is still ongoing to ensure the club is kept to a good standard to continue our vital service.
