## **Section C                    Objectives and activities** 

A public use building for the use of the residents and visitors to the Town. 

**Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document** 

The early part of 2021 was still affected by Covid lockdown and Covid measures were kept in place and the Hall submitted applications for all the grants available from central government. In the latter part of 2021 bookings picked up and the number of therapists assisting the local community increased. 

The public benefit of the Hall was increased when the decision was taken to offer community lunches, through a local organisation, the Community Cupboard. These have proved extremely popular. However, the limited cooking conditions in the Hall meant that meals had to be cooked elsewhere and brought to the Hall to serve. 

**Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to** The problem highlighted by the community lunches led the Committee to **these objects (include within** review the kitchen facilities and a comprehensive plan was developed in **this section the statutory** 2021 (to be implemented in late 2022/2023) to provide a semi **declaration that trustees have** commercial kitchen. Significant grant aid was sought and the outcome of **had regard to the guidance** this will be reported in next year’s submission. **issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)**

**Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** 

During the pandemic the Management Committee continued to make improvements to the Hall and these have been welcomed by users, resulting in an uptake in bookings. 

Income was maximised by applying for and receiving Government grants available during the pandemic. This helped keep the Hall on a sound financial footing.
