## **Bishop’s Stortford Community Centres Trust CIO** 

## **Chairman’s Report** 

The past year was an interesting one for the Trust, since our last AGM we have taken over the running of Bishop’s Park Community Centre and we welcome all their regular and hirers to the family. 

We have also seen our regular hirers start to come back after Covid and we have welcomed some new hirers who have joined us throughout the year. 

The coming year will be a difficult one for us, with the cost of energy rising and the economic situation in general. The Trustees are committed to running the centres in an efficient and profitably manner. 

I would like to end this short report by thanking my fellow trustees and the team at Bishops Stortford Town Council for their help and support throughout the year
