Achievements and Performance

	SORP reference
Summary of the main 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	The local groups identified in the summary of the main activities all benefited from the use of the village hall, recreation centre and tea rooms. The impact of Covid-19 meant that the village hall had to be closed from 23rdMarch 2020. No groups were charged for hire during this time, as such, rental income was down. £10,000.00 worth of grants from ELDC were received. We successfully applied for a grant to update the lighting in the village hall and recreation centre of £11270.94 from Triton Knoll. Sunshine Children’s centre who rent the recreation centre building were required to stay open for Key Workers. They were not able to access the Furlough scheme in the same was as most businesses as they receive government education funding. Their income was extensively restricted. To avoid their charity being further negatively impacted, we decided that they would not have to pay their rent for the period April – August. The village hall was due to have a new roof this year but due to Covid it has been delayed, as such there are funds still in the account to pay for this next year
