## Annual report from Preschool Chair 

The last year has been a difficult one for me on a personal level and I have had to be away for much of the time. Although I am usually available at the end of a telephone or email but I hope the next year I will be able to  concentrate on the Pre-school, although I know our wonderful staff have everything covered. 

Our main barrier to fundraising has been lack of volunteers to help but I hope this will change as we have some willing volunteers. 

The Pre-school lease has finally been signed and is for a further 10 years, I just have to negotiate the minefield of Stamp duty for which I believe we are exempt as a charity and Land registry as the lease is over 7 years. I am loath to employ  the services of a solicitor as this will incur charges and we do not have the money for this. 

The new building has been a delight to operate from and we have received money for Tesco and Gawcott Solar Farm to enhance the outside space and we are going to apply to Waitrose token scheme to buy further outside resources. 

Funraising ideas for the coming year include an Easter Egg trail already arranged for March 28[th] 



A Quiz 

Sip and paint event, 

Christmas Wreath making. 

Any other ideas are welcome. 

We are so lucky to receive continued support form our lovely community. So a big thank you to everyone. 

Thanks to all for your support.
