The Putson Community Association Ltd Trustees’ Report for the Year ended 30 September 2021
The primary focus of the Association’s Trustees is the provision and operation of the Community Centre known as Saxon Hall, a multi-purpose facility hosting activities offered by the Association, private providers and third-sector organisations. The hall is used by private hirers for parties, celebrations and other events. There is a mix of commercial and charitable users.
During the period 01 December 2020 to 30 September 2021, the whole Hall complex was on daily hire to the NHS as a vaccination centre, to address the COVID-19 pandemic. It was unavailable to either the Association or the public as a space for hire/community use.
The Trustees of the Association met several times during the year, all meetings via Zoom to
-
(initially) preserve the viability of the hall during lockdown in the ‘pre-vaccination’ period
-
Consider/determine level of commitment/liaison with the NHS vaccination programme
-
Monitor the arrangements for staff on furlough/part-furlough and making claims to HMG
-
Maintaining all statutory and employment responsibilities
-
Co-ordinate and undertake maintenance of external/garden areas
-
Address issues around insurance, building security, public access to grounds, safety etc
-
Co-ordinate planned opening of the grounds only to the community for recreation
-
To plan a restart of use as a community facility
-
Apply for funding support during and beyond the pandemic
-
Managing community and hirer expectations during and for planned restart, including redeploying users to nearby facilities during the extended hire period to NHS
The Chair of Trustees would like to thank the Trustees and Volunteers of Putson Community Association / Saxon Hall for going above and beyond during the pandemic, to help retain the premises and site for community use. Especial thanks to our long term hirers for their understanding, and for the communities in our area of benefit for their patience during the period covered by this report.
