CHAIRMAN’S REPORT This report covers the calendar year 2020. It was eventful in the sense we had to cope with lockdown and the closure of the hall business. We started the year with a refurbishment of the Club Room and renewal of the kitchen having reached agreement with the Parish Council to create a Parish Meeting Room. The PC took up occupation in November 2020, pending formal consent from GBC. Another exercise was renewing the Terms and Conditions which required updating. Once the pandemic hit us and lockdown was imposed we furloughed our staff and put in place the various measures laid down by the government. Notice boards were removed as these were considered an attraction for people to congregate around. Electronic sanitisers were installed and warning notices erected in the halls. We decided against permitting the opening of the Nursery in June as we could not guarantee the safety of our staff. However, the children came back in September and the halls gradually reopened in line with government advice and relaxation of the legal provisions. Financially we were supported by furlough payments and also a Local Authority grant. Nevertheless, we had to return significant amounts of hire fees and give credit for others so as the hall returns to normal, we will still be under pressure.
