Kibworth Grammar School Hall (Kibworth Community Hub)
Annual General Meeting
13 March 2024
Chairman’s Report
The last year has seen us furthering our ambition to become a community hub and, although the name of the charity remains Kibworth Grammar School Hall, we are now becoming known as Kibworth Community Hub. As we further our ambitions to merge with the library, we will be seeking to change the name of the charity.
We are pleased to announce that over the past year, we have received £260,000 from Section 106 monies and, a further £30,000 from the Weston Family Trust. Further applications are on-going and we hope that work on the first phase, the new library building will be able to commence shortly. Although this has taken longer than we would have liked, this is partly due to the delay in the allocation of the 106 monies.
Financial conditions remain challenging for us, mostly due to the high cost of gas and electricity, the hall is well used and we have had some new groups joining us over the last year, however, there are still some empty time slots, mostly during the day, that we are seeking to fill. We are also seeking to do some extra fund-raising activities over the coming year.
The hall has a number of regular activities, these include Qi Gong, yoga, Pilates, dance classes, W.I. and U3A, amongst others. We also host Last Minute Theatre Company and Kibworth Theatre Company/Main Street Theatre Company and they continue to produce a number of very successful productions.
We regularly host children’s parties and, there are very few weekends that go by without such an event taking place. We also provide office facilities for the Beauchamp and Harcourt Parish Councils and the Local Co-ordination Team.
Over the coming year we aim to increase the use of the hall and provide more facilities for the community, as well as finally move the library in.
Over the past year, we were sad to lose Pat Malpass from the trustees, Pat had been a trustee for many years and has provided sterling service. However, we were pleased to be able to co-opt Shone Atkin as a trustee.
I would like to thank the work of my fellow trustees, who continue to work hard to make the hall a success. I would also like to thank our employees, Kelly Knibbs, Alison Gibbins and Eric Wilde, who often work above and beyond the call of duty.
Finally, I would like to thank Dave Birch, who has acted as our minute secretary over the past few years. Dave has decided to step down from this role and we wish him well for the future.
