## **Chairman’s report June 2021** 

It’s been a difficult year with Covid restrictions and different levels of shut down and closure for the hall. A great deal of work has been put in to ensure Risk Assessments for Hall and Hirers have been completed and are appropriate according to Clubs and Village Hall governing bodies. 

Victory Hall has been made Covid Secure since 1[st] Sep 2020 when the hall first reopened. Little has changed since then regarding requirements of the Hall so we are still maintaining self-cleaning before and after use, hand sanitiser, extra cleaning, one way system, space, kitchen & bar is still closed and limited numbers in hall/toilets etc. Risk assessments are in place and have been completed by all users. 

Track and Trace is now a requirement and clubs/groups are responsible in maintaining a register and contact details. QR code is on wall for use if required. 

The Hall has had an episode of closure again over the winter, opening again to essential users (NHS) and Lait Dance Classes with limited numbers etc as in Sept 20. Most other clubs have decided to wait for all restrictions to be lifted and vaccination programme to be in full effect. Currently date for reopening according to Government is 21[st] June 2021, but currently I have my doubts and am expecting another delay of a few weeks. We await Gov advice and will follow it as we are informed. 

We have been financially supported generously by our local government due to closure and lack of income as reported by the Treasurer. 

JL Caretaker has been keeping the building clean and tidy and ensuring H&S checks are made, water is regularly flushed etc. There has been one call out due to heating problems and another for an electrical fault, both easily and affordably resolved. 

Moving forward clubs are getting ready to return, residents are keen to meet up again, bookings are in for a few weddings and parties, but all with the cancellation clause if Covid hits again at no cost to the hirer. 

I look forward to restrictions lifting and to see everyone out socialising safely very soon, and hopefully lots of bookings coming in!!
