Strategic Highlights

We’ve moved forward at a frustratingly slow pace of the last year but it’s important to stress we have moved forward! The pace of progress is unfortunately not dictated by us and deal with organizations who meet infrequently is a slow laborious process at best. That said we have reached our goal and as we are all aware we have completed these negotiations and agreed to sign a new two year lease with the Church in Wales. While still not signed yet I’m sure this will be completed very shortly and we can move on.

THIS PUTS OUR FUTURE IN OUR HANDS

We’ve worked with and been supported by a number of other organisations including,

 Arnold Clarke

 The Friends of Rhondda Rotary Club

 RCTCBC

 Interlink

 Penydus Choir

 Ynyshir Band

 NHLF

 And many more

Financial Highlights

Our treasurer will provide us with more in depth detail but from a strategic perspective we are now aware of the final purchase price of the site,

£105,000 (minus our £10,000 goodwill payment on signing of the lease) which is £95,000 In simple terms we need to raise this figure through donations, fundraising and grants, in the two years from lease agreement (signing).

We are committed to spending to improve the site and our operational effectiveness over the next few months including the below,

• Notice board and signage for the site

• New boiler for the hall

• Site survey and remedial preventative maintenance (where

necessary)

• Electrical survey and remedial preventative maintenance (where

necessary)

• Cosmetic improvement to the main building internally and

externally (where necessary)

The Hall as a centre of the community

Our year has been one marked by progression, from relatively standing start post-pandemic and through the work of all of our volunteers, we now run numerous events including the below,

 Gardening Club

 Cuppa and Chat

 Walking group

 Knitting Circle

 Bingo

 Guitar Group

 Film club

 Table top sales

We need to engage more with the public in Ynyshir and Wattstown, together we can do this but only together.

Looking ahead

There are financial pressures but we will continue to raise funds for our central capital project, the purchase and redevelopment of the site. We will seek to therefore begun fundraising once again upon signing of the lease to support these actions. We continue to appeal for lottery payments, both from existing contributors and new, and gratefully accept donations. Our primary aim is to make sure we can start our popular programme of social events and continue to foster community spirit in any way we can.

As a group we need to continue to improve and think about each of the below,

• (Redefining purpose - How can we be relevant, gain public trust, and help meet the growing need for the services in our community?

• Building confidence - How can we build the confidence to deliver the bold leadership that’s needed in our community?

• Securing the right people - How can we culture, leadership, skills and investment be optimised to make the most of the positive opportunities presented by new technologies?

• Measuring meaningfully - How do we collect the data that can help to inform our decision making, and make the experience and behaviours of all audiences as important as income?

• Collaborating actively - How do we work with other groups and funders to better meet the challenges that lie ahead?

• Looking beyond the village - How can we engage with the specialist skills, capabilities and access of commercial organisations and utilize them to help inject new energy into the project?

Thank you

It has been an interesting year as Chair and not without its challenges! I have been blessed with a wonderful, strong and supportive team. A massive thank you to them and to everyone who has worked so hard.

Last but not least, thank you to the people of Ynyshir and Wattstown who have also given so much BUT WE NEED YOU EVEN MORE DURING THE NEXT TWO YEARS and we look forward to seeing you all over the next year.
