– St James Community Partnership January to December 2022
St James Community Partnership (The Partnership), made up of volunteer trustees, were pleased to finally have a 15 year lease from St James Church on April 1st 2022 to run, maintain and repair St James Community Hall as a hub for the community. The lease now means that The Partnership can look for larger grants to tackle major repair works.
It has been another busy year with the hall being used daily by regular hall users and at the weekends for parties and social events with enquiries from new users continuing.
A lottery grant was received towards refurbishing the front toilets and another grant was used to replace the windows of the front toilets and main hall.
This work also included the creation of a store room for all the tables and chairs and a lockable cleaning cupboard. This was made possible with the extensive practical support and hard work of a long standing volunteer who has given his time to the community hall for a number of years.
A grant from the council for Cleaners Streets was finally spent with a bench and planters placed by the mobile phone mast on Bolton Road and more daffodil bulbs were planted in front of the hairdresser and along the grass verges. Waiting for permission from the council to place the bench caused the delay in spending the grant.
The Partnership were pleased to be able to put a heart defibrillator on the outside of St James Community Hall. This was made possible with a substantial donation from, Susan Brook trustee/hall user, and her line dancers.
St James Players made a donation again in 2022 from their Take a Seat variety show. More new folding linkable chairs were purchased to match those bought in 2021. In addition large folding round tables were donated by a member of St James Players giving a different option to setting up the hall for events.
The security system with each key holder having their own code to enter the building, which can be monitored remotely, is working very well. This also means that groups can acquire insurance for any property kept at the hall. It is hoped to have internet in the building but unfortunately attempts so far to get this has been unsuccessful. More investigation is needed into mobile phone options.
The Partnership will continue to maintain the building with further decorating required and looking at the major works required to keep the hall a safe and welcoming place. The building is now 56 years old and is showing its age. Replacing the main roof is priority as water leaks are occurring
resulting in damp. (This has now been completed in 2023). The following are on the list for attention: New heating system to be more economical and up to date. Treat the main hall floor Revamp the rear hall so it can be hired out as a separate entity. Car Park Grants will be required before some of this work can take place.
The Partnership were pleased to support community events throughout the year. These included plays, pantomime, various dance shows, musical evenings and fund raising coffee mornings/fetes. The special event for the year took place in June to celebrate the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.
Volunteers are always welcome to join those already running St James Community Hall and keep it open for all the community in to the future.
