Report of Chair: l am pleased to present this yearfs Chair's Report for the Senghenydd Communitv Centre. It has been another busy and productive year, and I would like to begin by expressing my sincere thanks to all committee members for your continued support, commitment, and hard work. Our centre is only as strong as the people who stand behind it, and l am grateful for everything you do. A special thank-you must go to Pat, our Treasurer, for the tremendous amount of work she carries out behind the scenes, ensuring everything runs smoothly and efficiently. Pat is ably supported by Heulwen, and together they keep the administrative heart of this centre beating. Your efforts are truly appreciated. l am pleased to report that the community continues to make good use of the centre. Our Luncheon Club has once again been one of the standout activities of the year. I would like to offer heartfelt thanks to Sara, who prepares and cooks the food each week, as well as to Sue, who helps prepare and organise the sessions. Thanks again to Pat, who takes on the responsibility of doing the shopping and to Leanne and Sharon who supports when work commitments allow. Your combined efforts are vital to the success of the Luncheon Club and are deeply appreciated by all who attend. We have also been successful in applying for and receiving several grants this year, which have helped us meet ongoing costs and maintain our services. These funding successes have been essential in supporting our Luncheon Club. Our quiz nights continue to be very well attended and remain a key part of our social calendar. We were also delighted with the success of our medium night, which brought in excellent attendance and positive feedback. Thank you to Sharon and Hayley for organising the raffle and for their support on the night and also a special thanks to Allie for her support also. Given its popularity, we plan to hold another event early next year. I'd also like to extend my thanks to Tony, our caretaker for his ongoing caretaking work, and to Sadie for her invaluable cleaning at the centre. Thanks also to Chris for his handyman work throughout the year and a big thank you to Garry for preparing the quizzes. Looking forward, we will continue to explore further grant opportunities to support the running of the centre. In particular, we will revisit potential grants for solar panels and
heat pumps to help address our rising utility costs, which remain one of our biggest challenges. Additionally, we will need to consider new fundraising events in the new year to strengthen our financial position. Finally, with the committee's permission and continued support, l am happy and willing to carry on in the role of Chair. It is a privilege to serve this community, and I look forward to working with you all as we build on this year's achievements. Thank you once again for your dedication and support.
