APPENDIX 1

Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements of
the charity during the financial period
Although our annual show was unable to take place this year due to
adverse weather conditions, we were able to maintain a healthy bank
balance.
This year we managed to receive generous sponsorship from a local
business to help with running our 2025 show as well as other donations,
but due to no Show this year our main source of income to keep us afloat
has been due to additional fundraising. This involved holding a Quiz night
as well as annual Music Night, and we also held a very successful Auction
and a Calendar Sale which involved people entering photos and the best
12 being selected. This has all been successful and enabled us to stay
financially buoyant while in the process of building a new shed.

Financial review

Brief statement of the charity’s policy
on reserves
Details of any deficit
Donated facilities and services (if any)
Although we have had no Show this year, due to the successful
fundraising and our reserves from our previous year as well as no utility
bills to worry about we have managed to stay financially buoyant this year.
