## **SHEDQUARTERS - ANNUAL REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES** 

## **FOR THE PERIOD 23 MARCH 2024-22 MARCH 2025** 

The year was an eventful year, in that the site was levelled and foundations were laid for two portacabins, which were purchased, delivered and installed. The cabins were fitted out, and connected to all necessary services, electricity, water and drains. We thank all our volunteers for all the hard physical work they did to get the cabins ready for opening. 

In the year, we received a large quantity of tools and equipment, all of which were tested for safety and compliance, those surplus to our needs being either sold or donated to other causes. 

All operating procedures were written and implemented. 

Towards the end of the calendar year, Shedquarters opened its doors for four mornings a week, each run by a Day Leader. 

By the end of March 2025 we had 43 paid up Members, paying £90 per annum or £25 per quarter.  This followed various marketing events to get additional members and to increase the local profile of Shedquarters. 

In addition, there were a number of changes to the Trustees, with 4 resignations, being Kathy Tarrant, Neville Varnham, Richard Martin and John Turner, and one new appointment, being Tim Smith. We thank the retiring Trustees for their work to help get Shedquarters up and running. 

As at the year end, we have 4 Trustees, in alphabetical order: 

- Sue Abbott 

- Malcolm Cooper-Smith 

- Sheila Maughan 

- Tim Smith 

We are in a good position financially, at the year end having £14,383.79 in a current account and a savings account.  However, we will continue our fundraising in the coming year, as we don’t have a clear idea of our ongoing costs.  We also wish to record our thanks to Clive Mills and Viv Binder for all their efforts on the fundraising front, without which we would not be in the position we now in. 

On the marketing front, we had a presence at the Sonning Common Village Day, which helped raise our profile, as well as regular articles in local newsletters. In addition, we were featured in an article in the Henley Standard. We also launched a website, www.shedquarters.org.uk. 

Finally, I thank all the volunteers who got us to this position, and the Trustees of Peppard War Memorial Hall for their support for this venture.
