Chalrman's Wclcome
rcad out b J Tettersell In Chalrman's absence
2025 has started as an excellent and also challenging year for us here at the Durrington
Community Centre Association. OUT first months operating as a Charitable Incorporated
Organization has seen a few subtle changes which have hopefully gone un-noticed by our
members but been lime consuming,, fNstrating and sometimes extremely stress￿1 to our
Committee and Staff.
Our success as a Centre both under the old and new umbrellas, is directly due to those
workin8 as part of a team lo enable th¢ suc¢¢ssfiJl day lo day running of the Cenlre, and I
would like lo personally thank all of them for their enthusiasrn. energy and hard work il
requires to keep our Centre up and running and open every day for the various activities we
have on offer for members of the Community.
W¢ ar¢ no loThg¢r charging to become a m¢mb¢r of th¢ Cenlre, but membership is Still
available and open to everyon¢ who takes an int¢r¢st and is k¢¢n to support our community.
We have also re-arranged our pricing structure to be fairer and easier for our users.
So far this year, wg have had the floors cleaned and polished, purchased some new chairs,
had the movable wall repaired and kept up with the mountain of maintenance, paperwork
and legal requirements, and also arranged training for those who have needed it or just
wanted to be more involved with the Centre.

We have also reconnected with the local special needs community and they are
volunteering within the Centre with jobs such as coffee bar cover once a week, painting jobs
and small maintenance jobs.
Our current Trustees arc David Jacobs, Roger Eastment, Linda Leaney. and Sylvia
Chapman. All of whom are happy lo reinain for the coming year. If you feel you would
like to join the trustee comlnittee - you will have the opportunity to join before the end of
this meeting.
Thank you for coming and continuing to support your Community Centre, now l ask Roger
Eastmenl lo rewrt on the finance5 of the Centre.
Treasurer to
resent the Accounts of the As$ocAation
These account5 for 2024 represent the last year of our status as an Unincorporated Charity,
From 2025 we are a Charitable Incorporated Organisation. I would draw your attenlion to
the notes on the third paLye under the heading 'depreciation" explaining that we have written
off th¢ remainingy value of our fixed assets so that in future our accounts will just show our
profit and loss aiid a summary of our current assets, of which the vast majority consists of our
bank balances.
After Ihc deprecialiory of £14,792 we made a small loss of £981. leavingj our total current
assets at £187.386 of which £186,118 is held in OUT bank accounts. Future accounts will of
course benefit considerably from not having depreciation deducted.
R D Easlment
Hon Treasurer
To elect the trustee officers of the Association
Th¢ current trustee5 are David Jacobs, Roger Eastment, Linda Leaney and Sylvia Chapman
who agreed to continue in the posts and the meetins agreed to re-elect the Trustees.

olnted b lh¢ Borou
h Council
The Council are Cu￿entlY looking into the system of outside bodi¢s and we are awaiting their
conclusion as to wh¢th¢r we will still have representation from the Council on our committee.
Toa

Anv Other Business
Geraldine asked whether we had reviewed our prices as mentioned previously. It has been
agreed we Lan keep our prices at the current rate for the tim¢ b¢ing.
The chairs ar¢ still proving a problem and more will need to be purchased.
The meeting di5CUSsed thc nuJnb¢r of groups and it was reported that whilst comrnunity
groups are declining possibly due lo a liick of volunteers, we are running groups as sections

which raises more Tnoney for the Centre.
Linda asked how the new Church were s¢ttling in and Jackie reported Kingdom Faith weTe a
happy enthusiastic group who were also starting to use the prayer room.
A recent meter reading meani 2 gas leaks were noticed and reported. SGN atlended within
Ihe hour and fixed them.
A question regarding the new community centre planned on the floral estate was discussed,
this still seems to be a long way otT. The church also planning to build there appear lo be no
closer to building.
Jackie felt th¢ flooring in the toilets needs to be the next repair and will look into getting
quotes.
