## **Scarth Memorial Hall Chairman’s report 27[th] May 2022**
**Welcome to the Annual General Meeting of The Scarth Memorial Hall for 2022.**
**After the disruption caused by the Covid pandemic the hall has now returned to normal operations. We reopened in July 2021 and our regular user groups slowly but surely returned, we thank them for their continued support. We did however have a couple of groups whose numbers had dwindled so they decided not to restart after lockdown and I also thanked them for their support over the years they were with us. All our regular weekly and monthly events, run by the hall committee, have restarted, Vinyl Countdown, Film Club, Quiz and the Open Mic. The Monday morning community café reopened and has gone from strength to strength. I must say a special thankyou to all those involved in running the hall events. Your help and support is very much appreciated both by the trustees and the wider community.**
**We staged several one off events throughout the year. In August we had the welcome return of the ever popular Hot Club Du Nord and in September we had a sell-out performance from The Fabs. In January w The Castle Players were on stage with a performance of Pygmalion. We also hosted four Highlights North performances, two were specifically chosen to entertain young children. The dining night was a success and more are planned.**
**This summer we are having the front doors replaced. The existing doors are in a bad state of repair and after consulting several companies the only way forward is to have them replaced. As they need to be in keeping with the rest of the building and are not a standard size, they need to be custom made. This has placed a considerable strain on our finances but there was no alternative. During the installation of the new doors the front entrance will be out of action for a few days with access to the hall only available via the rear door. Repairs are also necessary to the side doors. We will collaborate with the carpenters to keep any disruption to a minimum and will appreciate your patience during this time.**
**Finally I would like to take this opportunity to thank all our volunteers for their hard work and commitment throughout the year. Without their help the hall could not function. However, we always welcome new volunteers so if you or anyone you know would like to help with maintenance, existing events or run new events in the hall please speak to any trustee, they will be available to chat with after the close of the meeting.**

**Several of the trustees have served on the board for decades and are not getting any younger, the constitution allows for up to 11 trustees we have 7 at the moment if anyone wishes to join the trustees to ensure the future running of the hall, for the village, please speak to any of the existing trustees after this meeting, or at any other time! We will be happy to explain the job to you and hopefully welcome you onboard.**
**As chair of the board of trustees I would like to thank my fellow board members for all their hard work and enthusiasm over the past year.**

Accounts Revlew
The accounts have been prepared on an accruals prepayment
basis. for the year ending 2021.
From the books and records my examlnation Included a
review of the accounting records, and comparison of the
accounts wlth the records.
The procedure undertaken does not provlde all evldence that
would be required In an audit; and consequently I do not
express an audlt oplnion on the view given by the accounts.
In connection with the examination. no matters have come to
my attention;
l) Which would give me reasonable cause to believe that any
material in respect to the accounts were not properly
maintained, OR
2) To which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in
order to enable a proper understanding of the records to be
reached.
