## **ETRRT ANNUAL REPORT 2021/22** 

1 This is the annual report of the Trust for the year 2020/21. The Trust was established in 1999 in order to provide and manage a new sports and community pavilion associated with the use of the Thursley Road Recreation Ground in Elstead, with the objective of providing  recreational  and  leisure  facilities  for  the  inhabitants  of  Elstead  and  the surrounding area. 

. 

2 The following were appointed as members of the Trust’s Management Committee at the 23[nd] annual meeting of the Trust held on 16 September 2021: 

- Mr Patrick Murphy    (elected by members of the Trust) 

- Mr Richard Rees       (appointed by Elstead Parish Council) 

- Mr Paul Williams      (                            ) 

- Mr Marc Bird           (appointed by Elstead FC) 

- Mr Rupert Keith      (appointed by Elstead CC) 

- Mr Barry Young      (appointed by Elstead Sharks FC) 

- Mrs Rachel Young  (appointed by Elstead Sports Bar) 

3 Mrs Bridget Lincoln was co-opted to the Management Committee and elected Secretary. The Management Committee members elected Mr Murphy to continue as Chairman and Mr Keith as Treasurer. Two meetings of the Management Committee were held during the year. 

4 The main activities of the Trust during the year were those of managing the use of the pavilion by the user groups, the nursery and casual hirers. The end of the Covid lockdown meant that the building could now be made fully available for use by the sports clubs, the nursery and the other regular users. As a result the Trust’s own income has increased significantly during the year. Excluding donations and income arising from the borehole project and the Queen’s jubilee celebrations (see below), income increased from £8,140 in 2020/21(net of the WBC Covid compensation grant) to £21,480. As a result, the Trust ended the year with a profit of £3,878, which has increased the Trust’s cash balance to £17,955. 

5 Rainbows Nursery gave notice in early 2021 that it planned to close its business owing to problems at its other site in the village. The business was then sold to another provider, Tenderlinks Nurseries, which took over early in the 2022/3 financial year.  Arrangements for the transfer were satisfactory to the Trust and the rental income from the nursery will increase. 

6 In association with Elstead Parish Council, the Trust launched in early 2021 a campaign to raise funds to install a borehole at the Thursley Rd Recreation Ground to provide much needed irrigation water for the site. The campaign proved to be a great success and the borehole has been commissioned and fully used in 2022. The accounts for 2021/22 show the additional amounts raised and held by the Trust for the borehole installation in the FY. The total cost of the borehole was more than covered by the funds raised, the bulk of which were transferred as a donation to the Parish Council as the owner of the facility. The excess was retained by the Trust to cover the cost of irrigation equipment.

7 The Trust also played a major role in preparing to host the Queen’s golden jubilee celebrations in June 2022. It agreed to donate £1,000 towards the cost of the celebrations, and to provide accommodation and services for the events scheduled to take place on the adjacent recreation ground. It also acted as the repository of other donations received to help fund the celebrations, which will be fully accounted for in the next FY. 

8 All of the work of the Trust is carried out by volunteers. No payments, even of expenses, were paid to members of the Trust during the year.
