Annual Report by Alan Taylor – Chair of Trustees

1[st] April 2023-31[st] March 2024

The Ladybarn Community Hub continued to develop new groups, building improvements and new staff during the year. It’s been a very good year of trying new activities, community groups and expanding the diversity of those using the Hub.

The following gives a flavour of what we’re up to.

Building - We have grant money to use in the forthcoming year to redecorate the hub including the hall, replace the kitchen window and improve the lighting in the hall.

Community groups - There were a great mix of groups and events the Hub hosted over the year including Sourth Asian community lunches, Bollyfit, churches, birthday parties, singing groups, Eid celebrations, older age groups, climate activists, Surestart, LGBTQ+ group and a Carers group among many others.

Ladybarn community garden - The gardening group developed to the next stage with a community garden in the planning with over 12 in the core group.

Community links - We had a community forum drawing voices from the community to plan how to improve the area. There are networks developing with BAM, the university, council and other local community and neighbourhood groups.

Communication - We started a new instagram channel, proposed changes to the website and started a new newsletter.

Staffing and Governance - We had new staff during the year including Meena Shah as our new manager, Cal Lavelle overseeing our older age groups, Hannah Jewel came on as our Volunteer Manager overseeing and developing our volunteer base and a new caretaker. We had three trustees move on during the year with plans for new trustees in the months ahead.

Finances - Our finances showed a shift in income from very small groups using the hub long-term to more one off hires resulting in many more in the community using the Hub. There were grants received to start the community garden and fund the volunteer community manager role as well fund building improvements and new community groups.
