## **PETERSTON CHURCH AND COMMUNITY HALL** 

## **Trustees’ Annual Report for 2024** 

## **Introduction:** 

Peterston Church and Community Hall was gifted to the people of the then Parish of Peterston-super-Ely by Mrs. Ada Brockett Grover in 1925.  Its facilities have been well used and improved since by grateful villagers and organisations, such that it is now a hub for many thriving clubs and societies, a centre for the promotion and maintenance of well-being and health and is financially well run and maintained. The Trustee body remains as follows: 

Canon Martyn Davies, (East Vale Ministry Area Leader and Chair of Trustees), Mrs. Jan Parry, (Church Committee), Mrs Delyth Hurley, (Church Committee), Mr. Michael Morgan, Mrs. Kathy Smart, Ms Beatrix Bown, Mrs. Tonia Morgan and Mrs. Amy Moreno-Gray. 

_(After the Centenary Celebrations in 2025, Mrs Tonia Morgan and Mrs Amy Moreno-Gray ceased to be trustees)_ 

## **Objectives and Governance** 

To provide and maintain the Church and Community Hall for the use, benefit and well-being of all the residents of Peterston-super-Ely. We are governed by our constitution. 

## **Management Committee** 

The Hall Management Committee (HMC) consists of Mrs. Paula Pridham (secretary), Ms Amanda Harris (treasurer), Mr. Dai Potter (hall manager), Mrs. Tonia Morgan (booking secretary), Mrs. Linda Attwell, Mrs. Anne Haile, Mrs. Pat Cadwalladr, Mr. David Jaques, Mr. Nigel Jones and Mrs Jackie Jones (kitchen manager). 

The Trustees are very grateful for the dedication and hard work of the HMC as well as Section Heads who represent the sections (individual clubs or organisations set up to meet local needs and interests and which donate their profits to the Hall). Section heads now join the HMC every month while Trustees are welcome to all the meetings, which are chaired by one of the Trustees, Mrs. Jan Parry. 

We are also grateful to Amanda Harris, our treasurer, whose accounts are attached. 

Many other village volunteers make very valued contributions in the way of informal help and support, all of which are greatly appreciated. 

## **Employment:** 

The booking secretary and caretaker are employees and we are grateful for their contribution to the smooth running of the Hall. 



## **Public Benefit:** 

The Trustees confirm that they have referred to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit when considering the objectives and follow and monitor all activities. 

## **Achievements and Performance:** 

This year (2024) activities in the Hall have continued unabated and include table tennis, the annual Flower Show, drama and panto, the monthly village market and annual Christmas Fayre, the Flower and Gardening Club, WI, badminton, fitness and Pilates classes, film night, indoor bowls, church meetings and charity events along with outside hire for wedding receptions, children’s parties etc. The hall also boasts an “art gallery” populated with art works by local artists which are for sale as well as bookshelves for donated books available for a small donation. 

Weddings and funerals can be live-streamed from the church to the hall. This is particularly important and welcome when there is an “overflow”. Anyone unable to attend can also access the live-stream from anywhere in the world. 

Progress, including detailed plans and costings, has been made to upgrade the kitchen to more modern and efficient standards, which will include a new dish-washer, a new fridge etc., all planned to be completed by our Centenary Celebrations in 2025 

The charity has continued its objects via the various Sections and by letting its facilities to the community. The Sections’ monetary contributions to the Hall are detailed in the accounts along with other income from letting. 

## **Financial review and reserves:** 

These are detailed in the Financial Report which accompanies the Trustees Report. The Hall Subscription Draw provides welcome income.  The church makes a contribution to hall funds annually and this includes a contribution to the wi-fi fees so that the weekly church services can be live-streamed. The Hall is self-financing and continues to implement plans for maintenance and improvements with assistance from relevant grant-giving bodies. 

## **Conclusion:** 

The year 2025 will be the centenary of the hall and plans for a period theatre production, a gala dinner with a 1920’s theme, a thanksgiving service for the life and generosity of our benefactor Mrs Ada Brockett Grover followed by afternoon tea, as well as a party with traditional games for primary school children are already being considered for the celebration. The Trustees are grateful for the enthusiasm of the whole community and especially the HMC for their continued support, ideas and practical help.
