## **CODDINGTON VILLAGE HALL (Charity Number:1188363) Trustees Annual Report for the 2024 Financial year.** 

2024 has seen the Village Hall go from strength to strength.  As well as the long-awaited upgrade to the toilet facilities which were completed last year, the entrance hallway had also been totally revamped. With a fresh new colour scheme making the area lighter and brighter, the addition of new carpeting has completed the upgrade. 

To further enhance the experience of a visit to the Village Hall, new PIR lighting has been installed to the outside porch, meaning Hirers are able to access the Hall safely, especially during dark Winter evenings. 

It goes without saying that with a historic venue of this age, there is a continual need to maintain the fabric of the building, and a dedicated band of volunteers are kept busy year-round. From seasonal cleaning of guttering, to painting external surfaces, through to keeping the flower beds colourful and welcoming, there is always much to be done. 

Meanwhile, the Trustees work hard to encourage footfall into the Hall by way of fund-raising quiz nights, seasonal fairs and of course the ever-popular “Live and Local” events. 

Sometimes it all seems like an uphill battle.  However, following a visit to Coddington a few months ago of the Best Kept Village judges, it seemed our efforts had not gone unnoticed, for at the AGM of the Nottinghamshire Association of Local Councils, our retiring Chairman, Maggie George, was proud to accept the presentation of a Certificate of Merit Award, in recognition of the community effort shown in the refurbishment of Coddington Village Hall. 

This would not have happened without the combined efforts and hard work put in by many people over the years who wish to ensure that the Village Hall continues to be a valuable hub for local groups such as Brownies and the W.I.  In addition, the new, fully equipped kitchen means it is perfect for ad hoc events of all kinds.  From Christening celebrations, Wakes and birthday parties through to supper evenings or fund-raising events, it is suitable for all occasions.
