Barham Village Hall Charitable Incorporated Organisation
Trustees, Annual Report- 4 November 2024
We are pleased to report that the hall is popular with hirers (regular classes and parties)
and is in a good financial position.
The hall trustees agreed last November to install noise absorption panels in the main
hall to reduce the reverberation and echoing. These panels were installed in March
2024 and have successfully improved the sound quality in the room. The panels were
partly funded by a very welcome grant from the Atherton Grassroots Trust.
The warm spaces initiative, sponsored by the Kent Community Foundation, continued
through the winter and held a very successful 'air fryer, workshop.
In April 2024 the land previously licensed to Mr & Mrs Smallwood reverted to the hall
and an initial Clearan￿ of the site has taken place.
The village hall was converted to a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) on the
19th November 2021. Following this the assets of the old unincorporated charity were
transferred to the new CIO on 21st March 2022. The shop and bowls club leases have
been amended to reflect this transfer. The formal notification of the land transfer to the
CIO was finally confirmed by the Land Registry on 24th April 2024.
The hall car park's white lines have been refreshed. A new bookcase for children's
books and toys is to be added to the Grabham Room.
The shop has installed a new array of solar energy panels which are helping to reduce
their electricity bills.
In July 2025 the shop and the lottery funded hall refurbishment will reach their ten-year
anniversary. The hall trustees have earmarked the 19th July for a celebratory event -
more details to follow.
Lastly some thank you's:
all the regular hirers for returning to the hall.
to the Coffee Stop and 100 club for their contributions (financial and social).
to Geoff, Pauline, Steve, Roger and Andy for their help looking after the hall and
grounds
to Linda, Kim, Liam and Alison for doing a great job cleaning the hall
to Deb for sorting out the warm spaces initiative
to Alison for looking after the bookings, and
to the trustees for their help and advice, in particular to Alison for taking over the
treasurer role and Delia for being secretary.
