ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE |
Charitable activities |
Review of progress and achievements: |
The Old Chapel income from lettings more than doubled in 2024, but is still not sufficient to cover overheads, however Hartpury Church continues to make good use of it and covers the shortfall. During the year we fitted wall heaters with the intention of replacing the oil-fired boiler if they prove sufficient. They will be far more suitable for shorter lettings. |
Work on the restoration of the Old Forge is at last well underway, with completion expected in late spring 2025. This will include a new septic tank which will also serve the Old Chapel, avoiding the need for twice yearly pump-outs. |
The carpark shared with the church is working well and is very unobtrusive. Most of the paddock is mown so that it can be used for various activities, such as the church plant sale, but a section is being planted as a small heritage orchard, with significant local and other historic fruit varieties. The grass is allowed to grow in the remainder encouraging a wider rage of biodiversity. The church organised an ecology morning to highlight the issue. |
Trustees Steve French and Jim Chapman walked around the orchards and wetlands at the Orchard Centre with Laurence Richards the GWT Agroforestry adviser and Andy Ellis, a trustee of Gloucestershire Orchard Trust. GOT is interested in taking over responsibility for the orchards, provided they can sort out the stewardship grant, which is due for renewal in 2026. Laurence will be advising us on the options available for stewardship funding and ways in which we can improve the conservation value of both orchards and wetland. |
We had intended to hold our usual Wassail at the start of the year, but this had to be cancelled due to the extremely wet ground conditions making parking difficult. We might need to consider a similar carpark to that at the church. The date we chose for our Blossom Day celebrations was rather after most blossom was over, nonetheless many came and walked around the orchards enjoying a cup of tea afterwards. Gordon Kirk kindly led our Dawn Chorus walk as Keith again had family commitments. In June we set up our usual display at the Royal Three Counties show. |
We held our Plum Day in August, displaying a wider range of plum varieties thanks in part to Gloucestershire Orchard Trust's Longney orchards. The display was again well received, and we will try to make it an annual fixture. In September, our own perry display was again on a Saturday, due to the car rally on the Sunday. We were awarded a gold medal for our perry pear display at the Malvern Show. We supplied the pears for the Perry Day at the Hereford Courtyard theatre event and finally the Big Apple weekend brought to an end an exhausting season. Interspersed with these activities were the usual number of groups visiting the Orchard Centre. |
Peter Mitchell held his last training week at the Centre during the year. Following his retirement and Chris Atkins' decision to give up cider and perry production it seemed a good opportunity to review perry production at the Centre |
