Chairpersons report - April 2022 by Councillor Karen Dunleavey, Romsey Town Mayor. This is the annual report as submitted by the outgoing Chair following his or her year of Offi￿ as both Town Mayor of Romsey and Chairperson of Bartlett's Almshouses. one of Romsey's Municipal Charities. As we are all hopefully coming out of the corona virus pandemic, lrfe is trying to return to normal. There is a reluctance however among some people to abandon the restrictions that applied in dealing with this pandemic, and looking at the current high level of infection that still exists amongst the public at large. this is probably the correct and wisest course of action. This is especially true in the case ol our lady residents, some of whom are still experiencing the effects ol this virus. Health wise though. our residents do not seem to have b￿n too badly affected by the pandemic, and we are fortunate, perhaps, not to have lost any lo Covid and its variants, unlike many of the other Almshouse charities up and down the country. Tuming to the financial side, we are continuing with a program of necessary improvements to the properties, particularly with regard to water supply problems we have been experiencing over the past few years, and also wtth essential, but expensive, electrical works that are required lo bring our properties up to the standard expected in this modem age. Some of these electrical works are also required by modem legislation which we obviously have to abide by. Whether or not these improvements can continue at the present rate will probably be decided by the huge price rises that we are currently experiencing in the energy supply sector. As we have all been warned, wtth the huge rises we are having to manage now, and a further dramatic rise in prices expected in October 2022, we cannot remain immune to the financial pressures this will inevitably bring, and there may be some difficult decisions that have to be made during the ensuing year. Despite these extremely heavy ongoing expenses. the Charity remains in good hands and continues to have a strong financial base, and for this l am grateful to the elected officers and in particular to the enthusiasm of The Board of Trustees. At the next meeting of Romsey Town Council I shall be handing over the Chair of this important local charity to Councillor Neil Gwynne, the Town Mayor elect, and I would like to wish him every success in this role. which I have enjoyed so much over the past twelve months.
