## **Report of the trustees for the year ending 31.12.2025** 

The Trustees of The Warleggan Jubilee Hall Trust Charity present their annual report and accounts  for  the  year  ended  31  December  2025.   The  Warleggan  Jubilee  Hall  was registered as a charitable incorporated organisation on the 22.3.2016 during the financial year ending 31.12.2016.  All assets and liabilities of the Warleggan Jubilee Hall were handed over to the Warleggan Jubilee Hall Trust. 

## **Aims and Purpose** 

The Warleggan Jubilee Hall Trust charity serves to manage and run the Warleggan Jubilee Hall situated in the parish of Warleggan in Cornwall.  Its aim is to provide a community building that is fit for purpose for use by the local community both within the parish and surrounding areas.  Its purpose is to support activity that is of benefit to the Parish and local community supporting and enabling cohesion and inclusion. 

## **Objectives & Activities** 

The prime objective of the charity is to raise sufficient funds annually to maintain the fabric of the Hall building and its contents so that they remain fit for purpose for use by the local community. 

The charity raises funds through hiring the hall to local groups and private individuals.  The charity also fundraises by running events for the local community including three significant fundraisers this year, the Annual Produce and Craft show, Midsummer Madness a new joint event with the church taking place in the glebe field at Warleggan and the 100 Club. Further events such as Parish Lunches, quizzes, skittles nights and Carn to Cove evenings also occurred throughout the year. A monthly pop-up pub and monthly breakfast club that started during 2024 and have both continued into 2025. 

## **Review of Activities and Achievements** 

Our regular users, Village Greens with their weekly ‘ _Click & Collect’_ service, Sunday Table Tennis, weekly Pilates group have been joined by a weekly recorder group and multiple sessions of Yoga. These are held alongside monthly events such as the History Group, a monthly Breakfast and monthly  pop-up pub session  and Parish Lunches that continue through the year. St Neot Association Football Club has taken up use of the field opposite the hall for their home ground and are therefore making use of the hall throughout the football season for all home games, this means at least 12 Saturdays through the winter the shouts of GOAL! rings out around the village, sadly not always for the home team. There are various other ad hoc private bookings continuing to use the facilities. 

Overall event numbers for 2025 were 361 bookings, split between morning, afternoon and evening use, an increase on the previous year of 108 so the hall is managing to increase its levels. 

## **Financial Review** 

The Warleggan Jubilee Hall Trust held its AGM on the 31[st of] March 2026.  At the end of the financial period 31.12.2025 the charity had financial assets totalling £25,103.  The charity made a loss of £7,552 during the whole financial year, although an increase in hall income the loss is mainly due to the legal fees associated with being gifted an additional piece of land at the back of the hall, which has now been fenced and trees planted (a grant received helped with this cost) to allow a garden area to be available for hall users. A new dishwasher 



was also purchased through the year following a breakdown of the old one that was coming up to being nearly ten years old, most other expenditure fell in line with costs from 2024. The charity still retains comfortable reserves to cover any eventualities that might occur to the fabric of the building or contents in the future. 

## **Volunteers** 

The trustees of the Warleggan Jubilee Hall Trust wish to thank everyone who has helped with organising events and otherwise supporting the hall. Without the generosity of their time the charity could not function. 

## **Chairmans Report** 

There is much to talk about and we can reflect on a pretty good year all round not least the numerous opportunities that there are to keep fit. Pilates remains consistently popular and more recently we've had the very welcome addition of Tam's yoga classes. The St. Neot Football Club has brought joy to many and a considerable number of goals, some of which have been scored by St. Neot themselves. They are a friendly and enthusiastic bunch and we're very glad to have them. 

We've also been blessed by the arrival of the estimable Whistleblowers this year. For those of us who were forcibly restrained from yet again rehearsing in the living room with our fellow 7-year olds' recorder ensemble, this presents a late opportunity to once again explore our musical destiny. 

Village Greens last year (2025) were faced with a lot of administrative hurdles about to begin due to legal changes to the regulations regarding Community Interest Companies. The solution to this was to take in Village Greens under the constitutional umbrella of the Jubilee Hall. Thanks to the work of Richard and Simon and the continued loyalty of Tam, Mary, Helen and Lynda this has all worked seamlessly and as of January 2026 the move was complete and we look forward to VG carrying on happily into its 17th year, but under the hall trust. 

Actually it's worth glancing around the Hall Committee to celebrate the contribution of all those present. Tam has just joined us and will speak for Yoga and be a second representative for Village Greens along with Pam who has the unenviable task of taking the Committee Meeting Minutes. Alex PS and Jo bring us the happy banter and good food of Parish lunches , are part of the Thursday Cafe team and are the originators and current masterminds of Midsummer Madness Part 2. 

The arrival of Rob, Petra and Laurence on the committee has allowed us to share more freely in the activities of the Reading Room and has brought us the excellent monthly breakfasts, the pop-up pubs (and in so doing have revived the old but slightly moribund skittles evenings) and have breathed new life into the Big Do under the new branding of The Little Do (aka the Big Little Do !). 

Gill and John of course bring us this vital organ the Mount and Warleggan Newsletter and the ever-popular History Society. Gill is also part of the Thursday cafe team and continues to play a significant role in the parish lunches. Meanwhile John has tirelessly navigated us through the administrative and legal paperwork attached to taking on the most generous donation of land by Jill Beglan. All works on this green space are now complete so we hope 



soon to take full advantage of this outdoor opportunity once it stops raining. 

Particular mention should be made of those whose work so easily goes under the radar. I've already mentioned Pam who has to simultaneously talk, listen and write at the meetings, a task that would likely defeat many of us. Simon meanwhile looks after the accounts, paying the invoices and billing the users and it is Simon's initiative that there will be a shindig on Sunday June 7th to thank Jill for the gift of land, with stalls on our new grass paddock celebrating the work of the various hall activities. Bring your own food and refreshments. 

Chris meanwhile hosts the village website, represents the table tennis group, takes bookings and is an all-round source of guidance and information.(He is also the quiet life support system for so many in the village, buying and delivering groceries , checking on people and so often being the first port of call in a case of need). And John S gently keeps the show on the road by fixing broken things and keeping us straight on the need for good maintenance. 

Finally there is Alex B, who represents youth (something otherwise that we are rather lacking). He can't often come to meetings because of his punishingly early shifts with the council but in his presence, we are investing in the future!
