## Glenridding Public Hall Reg. Charity No: 1165670 Trustees Annual Report 2021/22 At the beginning of our financial year 01/04/2021 we began the year with £19,439.92 in our Barclays Community Account. Because of the Coronavirus, COVID-19 Pandemic we have not been able to open our doors as often as we would normally have been able to do in this financial year, however our income from local & visitor events has much improved from the previous year. Also we have had no Government grants this year but we have been able to pay our annual expenses and do some repairs and improvements to the Hall. We end the year with £15,242.53p in our Bank Account. Two of our main priorities in the financial year 2021/22 was to replace the five windows still remaining to do, and the possibility of building a small extension to be used for storage which we are so desperately in need of. The windows have been replaced costing £3,970 and we also purchased some new full length curtains primally to section off a small area for meetings and to help create a barrier for the acoustic sound. We have had our plans passed by the Lake District National Park Authority Planning Board for our Extension for a Storage Room and with Building Regulations from Eden District Council and a Bat Survey, the total cost being £639, we are now in the process of obtaining quotes for the work. Sadly, we have lost two of our regular bookings, namely the Ullswater Social Club, a social event active for many years for the older generation and The Jubilee Singers Choir started in 1977 and now folded for various reasons. The two years of Covid has brought about many changes, but we are very lucky to be able to welcome back the Patterdale Women's Institute, the Ullswater Art Club, the Glendale Health Walks and the Women's British Legion. We are also welcoming the Wanderlust Women. a group of inderrepresented communities and ethnic minorities for their Eid celebrations, hopefully this will be one of many visits. We are very lucky that ten out of the eleven of our current Trustees are willing to stand again. Regretfully Sarah Martin who joined us last year has resigned due to the pressures of work. We thank her for all her help and I know that she will be more than willing to help as a volunteer at some of our events. For this forthcoming financial year 2022/2023 we, the Trustees, will endeavour to run the Public Hall for the benefit of the residents of Patterdale Parish and for the general public at large, hopefully improving the conditions of life and offering a warm and welcoming venue for the benefit of people from all walks of life.
