## **The Past Year's Activities** 

Dear committee members, 

After being given the chance to be your chairman for a third year, after the unprecedented circumstances that covid raised, I had high hopes for the 2022 show. 

Planning started later than we would normally like to, but we soon had a steady stream of caterers, traders and exhibitors lining up ready for the Show. Main ring attractions were booked along with the marquees and all the other bits that go into putting on a show and very quickly July was upon us. 

For the 2022 Show the decision was made to sell tickets online with Ticketsrv. Advanced ticket sales were initially relatively slow, but as July progressed and the weather looked to be favourable, then there was a last minute rush for advance tickets.

**Yealmpton Agricultural Association Registered number: 03296410 Directors' Report** 

Show day saw what could only be described as record numbers of visitors. Unfortunately we had problems out on the roads trying to get the visitors in, but once in the field the carparking team had them parked up in short order and the benefits of the e-ticketing soon became obvious 

Once on the field all the visitors seemed to have a very enjoyable day as did the members of the committee that I spoke to. It became apparent that people were very keen to support their local show and I for one was glad we made an effort to put on a very good show for them to enjoy. 

I’d like to extend my thanks to all the visitors, volunteers and members of the committee that make the show possible. We managed to put on an amazing show in short order this year and hopefully we can build off the good feeling into 2023. 

## **Risk Management** 

The Charity actively reviews the major risks on a regular basis and maintains a reasonable level of reserves to ensure continuance, where feasible, of the annual show. Systems are in place to annually review these risks. 

## **Financial Review** 

The intention of the Directors is to accumulate sufficient funds to assure the continuing financial viability of the Association. 

## **Small company provisions** 

This report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions in Part 15 of the Companies Act 

This report was approved by the board on        /       /    and signed by its order.
