We may find we are in a better financial state to take this forward, but currently we need to spend some money on maintaining the building itself to a high standard._ 3 ## **Trustees Report** ## 2023 was a busy and productive year. The trustees have continued to ensure the safe running of the centre and they would like to thank all of the staff and the volunteers who keep the centre running as successfully as it is, and to all members and centre attendees for making it a positive and thriving centre in the community. Sadly, we need to report that Martin Critchley has passed away after being diagnosed with an illness, soon after he retired. Martin was very positive and passionate about our grounds and was very keen to set up a community garden, which we would like to work towards in the future. We send our condolences to Martin’s family, he will be sadly missed. 4 ## **Manager’s report** We said a sad goodbye to Caroline this year as she moved on to pastures new at Eastleigh Community Centre. Caroline has worked really hard to ensure that the centre has been going from strength to strength. She has publicised the centre at every opportunity and has worked with the community to meet their needs at the centre. Regular groups continue to hire and the party bookings continue to take place, mainly on the weekends. Many of these weekend bookings request a bar and we have bar staff that cover these events. Table top sales, a MacMillan fundraiser, party nights, volunteer thank you’s and a quiz night have been organised and well attended. Thank you for everyone who comes in and supports the centre in some way, whether that’s becoming a member or coming along to our activities, events and groups. Without you all, we wouldn’t be as successful as we are! _Editor’s comment: much as we all miss Caroline I am happy to report that Hayley Gillians, her successor, is carrying on her great work and is driving the centre from strength to strength_ 5 ## **Volunteer Co-ordinator’s Report** This year has been a positive and very eventful year for our volunteers who continue to support the centre in many different ways. We have two groups of people who support our efforts here, at the centre. Our Friends of Bedhampton Community Centre are a group of people who work behind the scenes to help by kindly donating raffle prizes etc and our volunteers come along to support our events such as coffee mornings and social groups. Each gives people a sense of belonging at a level that they are happy with. The Wednesday Social Afternoon (which is run in the lounge every Wednesday between 1pm and 3pm) has continued to be very popular and Hayley supported the running of the group to help both Denise and Caroline every week. The attendees have become very supportive when donations are required for raffles etc. and they have been willing to help at events going forward. A Thank You Afternoon get together was held with games and a lucky tickets prize which was good fun for all volunteers. Rita Rymill has been very busy fundraising by holding regular foyer sales selling jigsaws, books, and crafts etc. throughout the year. We would like to say a big thank you to her for all of her efforts. 6 ## **2024 Price Information** Hire of the centre went up in 2023, and will be frozen at those prices in 2024. We are expecting a SMALL rise for 2025 if energy bill prices don’t start to fall soon, so that may be worth considering if you’re setting new entry prices for clubs and groups. Membership has gone up to £10 minimum donation, and still includes 10% off of private hires, 5 free photocopies, entry to the quarterly draws and access to members only groups and the Air and Share. This still makes us the cheapest community centre membership in the Havant Borough. 7 TOT *Jl 41•Prtp>y 167 14• 14 43P8¥ 471 J1¢E￿¢r• l) **If you would like a large print copy of the financial report, please contact the Office.** Profit and loss 10 41.740 accounts Sttt10Th A E¥arr￿￿- s R+ 1112013 1117531 | 0**. 1 28IK* OrtXi• 12 u£ 0tt201• 13 4NW WAcCryJ￿F1xl1023 v￿Ue0f5Il￿&￿ atOI.01.1023£0 ¥￿￿o[s￿￿•S￿t3tyI?.2ol1￿ Cath ￿￿&sat01.01￿023f￿j Takin Purthase5 £3.3¥&91 El.152.￿> SS22.04 £2,355.92 T4t Cash ba[￿e￿￿oI.01￿024ÉxI 14 Would you like to give back to your community by becoming a volunteer Trustee of Bedhampton Community Centre CIO?
