Charity no: 1195635 ## **CHAIR’S REPORT TO THE 2023 AGM** The Greig Hall Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) was registered with the Charity Commission in August 2021. Since then, a dedicated group of first Trustees has met on a roughly monthly cycle to set up the charity with an operational framework of roles and policies drawn from current best practice. I am most grateful to all the Trustees and everyone that has engaged with the CIO to get it established so quickly. A key document has of course been the CIOs Business Plan, setting a course to assure the viability of the Hall both in the short and longer terms. With no firm knowledge of the current costs of running a sizeable hall such as the Greig, in what is now a challenging economic climate, a number of bestestimates have been required. We will need to review the Plan regularly as our experience expands and feedback is garnered. Through representation on the Alcester Town Council Working Group, we have been kept abreast of and influenced the progressing of the Hall’s refurbishment, the target date for which was agreed as February 2023. Whilst there are still tasks to complete and some desirable work has proved to be beyond what has turned out to be a quite generous budget, the Hall is now looking magnificent. It is encouraging to see social media comments saying how impressed people are with the transformation. As a result of good progress, discussions have progressed with Alcester Town Council over the terms of a lease that will allow the CIO to start running the Hall independently from 17[th] February 2023. In conjunction with the Friends of the Greig Hall, tester events have been put on at the Hall, as a means of raising further vital funds but also of finding out how the Hall can function to deliver a wide range of events and activities. The Hall has 3 attractive spaces as well as a stage and a well-equipped kitchen and a well-stocked bar, so the potential is huge. The Hall’s versatility in use is gradually being increased – we had a well-equipped kitchen from day one; the stage has been reinstated as a performance space to which we are adding sound and lighting options; screen and projection equipment will allow for cinema and conference uses; new curtaining and chairs could help attract wedding reception bookings. To establish the Hall back at the heart of the community, we envisage that the Hall will be hired regularly by others but also the CIO itself will organise events that, across the year, will prove attractive to the whole community. Events thus far, from the Murder Mystery first event to New Year’s Eve and the Pantomime in January have all been sell-out popular. Experience and feedback from these events are allowing us to build an ambitious and varied programme for the remainder of 2023 and into 2024. Some bookings are regular, such as the Contradance Group – others intermittent, such as the Top Box theatre company – and yet others that may build into a regular feature, such as a serious interest from a Philharmonic Orchestra. Please spread the word that the Greig Hall is going to be the place to be in ‘23.
