The People’s Picnic raises nearly £650.00.
There is simply not enough room here to acknowledge all those that set out chairs, manned stalls and, last though no means least, provided superb entertainment.
However we do have to thank the people of Cheddar who turned up and supported the trust. The weather held and a good time was had by all!
Assist young people in their educational, professional or vocational training.
Encourage young people to engage in service to the local community.
Support young people to engage in worthwhile activities in other parts of the United
Kingdom and overseas.
Support the development or formation of any club or organisation catering for young
people's needs.
Help young people where real need can be demonstrated.
Why is the trust needed?
Unlike some towns and villages, Cheddar does not have any substantial inherited
trust funds available for distribution to such causes. It is therefore the Cheddar Youth Trust's aim to raise a sum of money large enough so as to be able to make meaningful annual awards to the young people of Cheddar for perpetuity.
The initial target is a fund of £100,000, which would provide a level of annual income allowing grants to be made without eroding the value of the capital, the longer term aim is a fund of £500,000.
The trust has raised over £60,000 as of May 2010 and has provided grants comprising nearly £7000.
