Wanborough (Surrey) Village Hall
Chair's Annual Report to the Charities Commission
th
Financialyear 1" November 2024 to 30 October 2025
During the financial year. paid bookings from hirers amounted to a total of about 640
hours. Typically booking periods are for two to four hours for classes and groups and
between four and eight hours forfamily parties and funeral teas. In addition, three
wedding receptions in the historic Great Barn of Wanborough accounted forthe
equivalent of 75 paid hours under the Barn/hall agreement to make the hall available
during each three-day wedding hire period for a fixed fee of £250.00.
The hall was used for a total of 17 hours while the Heritage Café was again in operation
during local Heritage Days in September. This fundraising event was organised bythe
village hall committee while a rota of volunteers baked cakes and manned the café,
which earned contributions to the coffers of Wanborough Village Hall, the Great Barn of
Wanborough, and the Friends of St Batholomew's Church in Wanborough that totalled
£1,684.00.
During the year, the hall committee also ran a successful quiz night, supplying
homemade soup, bread and cheese and chocolate brownies to quiz participants,
thereby creating a winningformula the quiz was booked out as soon and it was
announced, earning a healthy financial contribution of £550.00 for the hall.
No major improvement projects were necessary during the period but maintenance and
repairs to the drains, the back door and external lightingwere arranged.
As always. our hall committee. comprising entirely of unpaid volunteers, took
responsibility for coordinating bookings, managing our finances, organising
maintenance and safety checks, providing secretarial and admin services and generally
making sure that the hall is always in a good condition as a resource for our local
community. As Chair I would like to thank each and every one of them for their
considerable efforts.
