2025 AGM CHAIRMAN’S REPORT.
THIS REPORT IS FOR THE YEAR ENDING OCTOBER 2024
THIS YEAR AS EVERY YEAR FOR THE TRUST HAS BEEN A HARD SLOG, KEEPING FINANCES COMING IN TO COVER THE NORMAL ANNUAL WORK THAT THE TRUST DOES IN MAINTAINING FOOTPATHS ETC, BUT STILL TRYING TO ACCESS FUNDS TO PROGRESS ALL OF OUR WORK. AGAIN WE MUST THANK THE PARISH COUNCIL FOR THEIR SUPPORT IN GIVING US OUR ANNUAL GRANT. THIS ALWAYS HELPS TOWARDS OUR COSTS.
WE HAVE HAD MEETINGS WITH MEMBERS OF IMERY’S AGAIN TO ASCERTAIN OUR POSITION REGARDING THE LEASE WHICH IS RUNNING LOW IN YEARS AS WE HAVE MENTIONED BEFORE. ALTHOUGH VOICES WERE POSITIVE NOTHING CONCRETE HAS COME FROM THESE MEETINGS. HOWEVER IMERYS DO SEEM AMIABLE REGARDING THE EXTENSION TO THE CAR PARK AREA. THIS IS STILL BEING WORKED ON. AS ALWAYS WE DO MANAGE TO KEEP THE DAY TO DAY WORKS DONE AND COVER THOSE COSTS. BUT AGAIN UNTIL WE HAVE ANY OTHER NEWS WE WOULD JUST MAINTAIN THE VALLEY THE BEST WE COULD. I WOULD POINT OUT TOO AT THIS STAGE, WE ARE VERY GRATEFUL TO ALL THOSE OF THE COMMUNITY WHO ALSO TAKE TIME TO COLLECT RUBBISH AND INFORM US OF ANYTHING OF CONCERNE. THIS IS A GREAT HELP TO THE TRUST AND IS GREATLY APPRECIATED.
THE REDIRECTION OF THE PATH TO TAKE IT AWAY FROM THE SLIPPAGE AREA IN THE VALLEY IS STILL ON HOLD FOR THE TIME BEING. THE SLIPPAGE AREA IS BEING MONITORED.
THE FUNDING ISSUE WILL BE DEALT WITH BY OUR TREASURER BUT JUST TO SAY THAT THE BINGO SESSIONS HAVE CONTRIBUTED WELL TO THE FUNDS, AS OUR USUAL HARVEST FESTIVAL ETC.ETC. THESE OCCASIONS NOT ONLY RAISES MONEY BUT A CHANCE FOR THE COMMUNITY TO MEET UP. THERE HAS BEEN SEVERAL GUIDED WALKS IN THE VALLEY ORGANISED BY OUR MEMBERS WHICH IS VERY ENCOURAGING IT BRINGS IN EXTRA FUNDS BUT ALSO CREATES AWARENESS ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU FIND THERE ARE STILL PEOPLE WHO ARE SURPRISED THAT WE HAVE SUCH A WONDERFUL ASSET.
WE HAVE SOME GREAT NEWS.THE HAWKINS FAMILY WHO AGREED IN PRINCAPLE TO GIFT CHAPEL MILL TO THE TRUST, WE CAN NOW SAY WE ARE ON THE EDGE OF THE FINAL PAPERWORK TO OWN THE MILL AFTER SOME CONSIDERABLE YEARS. THIS IS EXCITING NEWS AND HAS BROUGHT THE TRUST TO CONTACTING RELIVANT HERITAGE PEOPLE TO START HEADING TOWARDS THE WORKS NEEDED THERE.
I NOW FEEL THAT I MUST THANK ALL THE COMMITTEE FOR THEIR CONTINUED SUPPORT TO ME IN MY POSITION OF CHAIRMAN. I FEEL BLESSED TO HAVE MEMBERS OF THE TRUST WHO ARE COMMITTED TO OUR PRINCEPLES OF KEEPING OUR HERITAGE ALIVE.
TO THIS END I MUST SAY THAT EVERYONE DOES THEIR LEVEL BEST IN DOING WHATEVER THEY CAN TO SUPPORT THE TRUST’S WORK AND I DON’T NORMALLY MENTION NAMES HOWEVER ON THIS OCCASION I FEEL, AS I’M SURE YOU ALL DO, THAT OUR TREASURER, MARIE ALLEN, HAS BEEN A HUGE ASSET. HER PROVISION OF ACCOUNTS ON A MONTHLY BASIS HAS BEEN EXCELLENT WHICH WE HAVE COME TO EXPECT AS THE STANDARDS OF OUR OFFICERS, BUT THE AMOUNT OF WORK SHE HAS DONE 2023 AND 2024 ON OUR GRANT APPLICATIONS, MEETING OFFICERS SOME AT SITE MEETINGS REGARDING SURIOUS FUNDING ETC. ETC. HAS BEEN OUTSTANDING. WE THANK YOU MARIE AND HOPE THAT IT WON’T BE TOO LONG BEFORE THE FRIUTS OF YOUR CONSIDERABLE TIME AND EFFORTS THAT YOU HAVE GIVEN TO THE TRUST WILL BE REWARDED.
