In total. we estlmate more than IIX) volunteers are involved in organi%in8 and deli¥erin8 SCA actNities. Ceddesfeld Hall is a Grade 2 bulding dating frorn 1793. Trustees are co8ni5ant of the challenges assoaated with responsibility for such a build1 in publK use and maintain resenrfe5 to meet worst case. In the year of report we have recevied a Survey of the attic space wfth various indicative ttStinÉs, and contrarted to replace the lrft to am floors. This latter will cost iro £40.Cth induding VAT. Assodated wFI improvements to meet current standards are expected to cost a further £4,(KX). The attic repairs costs are as yet unknown. None of the above could have happened wlthout the hard work of the Trustees and all the volunteer5 and I thankthem. Our priority going forward must still be to attrart younger members to contnue the good work that all of ourvolunteers have accomplished in the last 50 years. Dr Wendy R Gil. Chairman.
