Summary of the main
achievements of the charity
during the year
I'm pleased to report this as a fairly 'quief' year, one of consolidation
rather than huge Ghange.
The Village Hall continued to provide venues for an increased number of
local groups and societies., in spite of inflation we have so far been able
to hold hire prices at last year's rates, and will continue lo do so as long
as we can continue to cover ongoing costs. A review of prices and
facilities at similar venues shows that we are providing good value -
which may explain our increased use.
Maintenance and inspection programmes have continued for the fabric of
the building, and for electrical, heatinglplumbing and fire safety systems.,
in particular we are reviewing fire safety in view of recent changes in
regulations lo ensure compliance.
We Continue to try to reduce our carbon footprint- wè have recently
moved to LED lighting in the main Hall. and are moving {slowly) towards
what we hope will be a grant-aided new roofwith much improved
insulation.
