Chalrnian'8 Report- 2022-2023
As we draw the year to a close, I would like to take this opportunity to refiect on the
past 12 months at our Village Hall. It has been a year of modest actNty, but one
where community spirit and resilience continued to shine through.
Due to ongoing tight finances. we have had to carefully manage our resour￿.
Rising utility costs and general maintenance expenses have left little room ft)r larger
improvements or major projects. However. thanks to prudent budgeting and the hard
work of our volunteers, we've been able to keep the Hall open and functioning for the
groups and individuals who rety on it.
Event-wise, it has been a quieter year. There were not many events hosted
compared to previous years, largely due to lower bookings and limbted capacty to
organise activities ourselves. Nevertheless, we were pleased to support a handful of
small communty gatherings and privats functions that made good use of the spa￿.
One bright spot continues to be our Food Panty, which has become a vital
resource for local families. Run by a dedicated team of volunteers, it has seen
increased use this year and we're proud to be able to support those in need during
difficutt times.
We also relaunched our small Tuck Shop, which is open during key times and
community events. Though modest in scale, it has been well received and
contributes a small but welcome income to help support the Hall's operations.
In addition, our kltchen has been used more frequently this year by hirers and
groups, and we hope to continue improving its facilities when fvnding allows. It
remains a valuable asset for events and community use.
Looking ahead, our focus remains on sustainabilty both financial and operational.
We are actively seeking grant opportuntties and partnerships that can help us
expand usage and bring new lrfe into the Hall. Volunteers are always welcome, and I
encourage anyone who can spare some time to get involved.
On behalf of the committee, I'd like to thank everyone who has supported the Village
Hall this year
vthether by volunteering, attending, donating, or simply spreading
the word. Your support ensures that the Hall conts'nues to be a Spa￿ for everyone in
our community.
