Chairman's Report Ashreigney Village Hall AGM 2025 Since our last AGM, your Village Hall TTusiees have attended formal meetings on 9 occasions. along with other emeigency meetings concerning the rerbIshrnent. The last 12 months have been rather difficult and disappointing regarding the refurbishmeni. Denise Oanon, our forffler Treasurer, stood down in September and we welcome Karen Smith. who agreed to take on the role. although she has not become a trustee. Mick Mitchell has decided to Stand down after this evening, as he is planning to move away. We thank for all his woik in overseeing the estate of the village hall and school house. This leaves us with only 5 trusiees plus myself, so we need to recruit in order to share the workload. I would like to thank the 6 tnJstee5 we currently have. for all their hard work and the support they have given me over the past year. especially Mary, our very efficient secretary. who I rely on gready. We have spent a loi of time discussing and agreeing proposals conveyed by the steering group. in anucipation of successful grant application5. Chris, Richard, Kasia and myself have pui in many hours of hard work, and despite achieving son]e smaller tinancing, it was very disappointing when the General Election was called and our rnain source of funding disappeared before our very eyes. My thank% go to Mick & Rob, along with their wives, Tanya and Gemn)a, for running the Hare on the 2 Saturday of each month. Although it is not quite so well-attended as when it first started, it is still a very imponant part of our community and very much enjoyed by those who attend. Thank you to Gerrit Lemtnens for kIng on the nmning of the Garden Show, ably assisted by his wife Jill. I must also thank them both for organising the very successful plant sale, soon to be repeated in April. Friday tnorning coffee sessions have pmved ro be very popular and. once again I would Like to thank those who step up and do their turn at hostÈng it...and all who regularly attend.
People have also enjoyed and appreciated the OnthlY markets and Communiry lunches, ably organised by Katherine Cole and her helpers. All these events piovide a ieal centtal focus to Ashreigney lrfe. Our thanks also go to Kim Melhuish for selling up our library, although l am not sure if the DCC'S hopes of running a request delivery and collection service have ever got off the ground. Thank you to Kim and lan CoIes for administrring our website. Thanks also to Cher Madison for running the 200 dub. She has increased the numbers participaung and kept renewals up 10 daEe. Last but not leasL a big thanks to Steve and Val Dart foi cleaning the hall each week and keeping it looking as smart as possible. We also have a new editor for the Ashcombe, so our thanks go to Ilelen Thorne for taking on that role and keeping it fresh and interesting. Thank you. too. to all those who give their time (and fuel!) io distribuiing it around the Parish.
