Review of 2023/24 Activities
This year we have explored the possibility of renewing our existing oil boiler, to a more ecofriendly forms of heating, and we are hoping to begin works late 2024. Changing our lighting to LED we are now seeing the benefits in our electricity bills.
Bookings have increased due we think to keeping the hire rates down, for parties and regular classes.
