In May we received the second tranche of our grant from the Stratford Town Trust.

Thanks to this and other generous donors we have been able to expand our activities, by adding a Holiday Club to our traditional Saturday sessions.

Outings in 2024 included visits to Cadbury World, Cotswold Wildlife Park and Twycross Zoo, and we are continuing the programme in 2025.

In February 2025 we have welcomed three new Trustees: Susie Drummond, Ian Roberts and Helen Leighton. All have been, and continue as, members of our management committee and so have good knowledge and understanding of how the Group works.

We also said a fond goodbye to Alison Gilbert, who has been a hugely valued Trustee and Secretary since we began as a Charity in 2012, and to Jane May and Jill Dyer who have served as management committee members. Thank you to all of them for their commitment and their valuable contributions to the Group.

As always, we remain hugely grateful to our many supporters who contribute regularly to our funding through standing orders. They are the backbone of our organisation and without them we could never have succeeded in what the Time Out Group has achieved over the past 12 years. Their support continues to give us and our wonderful staff the confidence that we can continue for many years to come.

Our thanks go to Tempo Events for their generous donation and sponsorship, when we once again provided marshals for the Compton Verney 10K and Stratford’s Big 10k and half marathon.

We are immensely grateful to the Rowe Will Trust and the Diana Startin Foundation, both of which have made generous donations to the Time Out Group in 2024.

In November we received a very generous grant from Stratford Town Trust, which we are most grateful for and which gives us greater financial security to continue providing the valuable Time Out service into the future

We are delighted to report that Charlie, our Group Leader up until September, was safely delivered of a little girl, Rosie Margaret on 26th October - a sister for Henry - and both mother and baby are doing fine. Congratulations to Charlie and family!

A big thank you to The Misses Barrie Charitable Trust who have once again made a substantial donation to Time Out this year. This is hugely appreciated and makes a very helpful contribution to our funds, and hence our sustainability for the next year and more

We once again provided marshals for the big 10k race around Stratford this year.

Once again, the weather was kind and as always the event was enormous fun.

Congratulations to all the runners who took part, and thank you to the organisers, Tempo Events, and the many participants who donated to Time Out and made the event such a great success.

In August we received a very generous donation of £2,500 from the WPH Charitable Trust, a health charity based in Leamington. This is the second time WPH have kindly supported us, and we are immensely grateful for their support
