Chair's Foreword l am pleased to introduce Addoldai Cymru's Annual Report for 2021-22. As in so many spheres of lrfe, the Covid-19 pandemi¢ has given us a challenging legacy. Activities across the chapels remained restricted throughout the year. More worrying is the effect the pandemic has had on congregations across Wales: some chapels have simply nol re-opened and an avalanche of Closures has effectively been accelerated. The energy crisis is also having an impact on small congregations with large buildings. Despite all this. our slaff have:b.eeD-. ts"usy.-AnsJ_p_MmunIcatIOn via email, telephone and Zoom has been gradually supplemerited'by 'live' meetings at our Salem offices. We have also made substantial progress towards ensuring that most of our Chapels are in a good state of repair. The rolling programme of capital works agreed with Cadw together with three tranches of Cultural Re¢overy Funding.from the Welsh Government, has enabled us lo complete repairs at most of our chapels, enabling them to be used safely. One of the largest schemes was at Peniel, Tremadog. the interior redecorated and heated by a new boiler. The chapel is already back in community use. Libanus and Beili Du have both had their rotten floors replaced and both Carmel and Caebach are in exlIent repair. We have been del_Ehted:with:tbe.-workman5lJip_.o!_alL:of_our contractors, who have all gone the extra mile foc us.-.We' a-In-debIed to.th"èm.. As indicated above, we face massive challenges next year. As significant Chapels continue to Close, the recession has put many funding SoUrS under threat. Negotiations are underway for the acquisition of at least three chapels and without doubt, the Trust will be looking at more candjdates over the coming years. Over the last year, most of our staff time has been given over to overseeing projects and seeking funding. Next year. we will be focusing more on raising the profile of Ihe Trust, ensuring that we stsnd out as the body charged by the Welsh Govemment to take into care a selection of redundant non-church in Wales religious buildings of exceptional qualty. The Trust has continued to receive donations from charttable bodies and individuals. Whether large or small, such donations are valuable in supplementirjg funding from grant-giving b¢)dies, and are aayS received with gratitude. We are noting the ret1ment of...D"av.IdLlèyd-.fFom:8ur-boafd.of trustees and thank him for his expertise as a trustee over. many""years" and.for his good-humoured role as chair. We were meanwhile pleased to welcome Jonathan Jones who was co-opted as a new trustee in October 2021, and looked forward to welcoming Sue Cole in April 2022. On behalf of fellow trustees, I would like to express our gratitude to our hard-working staff for their support, as well as to our contractors, architects and volunteers for their ontribution to protecting a small but signrficant part of Wales, Nonconfomiist heritage.
