2021 ANNUAL REPORT
Highfields The property, bequeathed to The Trust by the late John Batchelor, was advertised for rent on the 12[th] February 2021 applications to be received by the 15[th] March. 43 enquires were received and 28 application forms completed. The Trustees met on the 16[th] March to produce a short list. A joint application was chosen and, after satisfactory references received, were offered the tenancy which they accepted. They took possession of the property on the 26[th] March.
The Trust’s dispute with East Suffolk Council over the payment of Council Tax was resolved with a total refund of £2,826.38 received on the 22[nd] March.
Chapel Row Cottages
No: 1 In March the community occupational therapist asked for permission, which was immediate given, for grab rails to be fitted either side of the main and conservatory doors and an additional rail fitted in the kitchen on the left side wall.. Unfortunately, the tenant’s mobility had decreased and he was struggling to access both the main and conservatory doors. Sadly the tenant died in September and the tenancy passed by succession to his son on the 12[th] September.
No: 2 Windeman installed a new sealed window unit and a leaking kitchen tap was repaired in June. The Chairman and Mr.David Ruse investigated a damp patch on the wall underneath the front window and found that this was caused by an inadequate soakaway system which needed to be replaced by a more robust installation. Mr.Ruse submitted a quotation of £3,079.57 which Trustees accepted. The cost will be set against the maintenance budgets for all three cottages.
Emergency Alarms 54 Grundisburgh residents now enjoy the security of emergency alarms. This service, provided by the Trust, brings enormous peace of mind to the resident and their carers and is very much appreciated.
Finance Despite spending a further £22,983 on renovating Highfields during the year, total assets increased by £30,079 by the end of the year due to an increase in the value of the Trust’s investments.
Christmas Grants 37 Grundisburgh residents received a grant of £40 which was accompanied by a card designed by pupils of Grundisburgh Primary School.
Other Grants
Lunch Club £50 donated to The Trust in memory of the late Edna Warren was forwarded to the Lunch Club
Playing Field A grant of £250 was awarded to Grundisburgh Playingfield Management Committee towards the cost of installing new children’s play equipment on the playing field.
Grundisburgh Primary School – Trip to Surrey Hills May 2022 An application to pay half fees (£170) for six pupils who are unable to fully finance the visit was received. Bearing in mind that the Trust paid £510 to support three pupils for the cancelled 2020 trip Trustees agreed to award a further grant of £510.
