ANNUAL REPORT 2021 29[th] March 2022
Trustees
Ms Judy Fowler – Chairman Mr Stephen Morley
Mrs Jane Bricknell Mr Allen Skinner
Mr Glyn Upjohn Mr David Duncan
Mrs Doon Muir Mr Alain Mardle
There were no further amendments to the Governing Document in 2021 and the Almshouse remains as is, divided into eight dwellings comprising of six single bedsits and two, one bedroom Flats.
After the sad passing of the Warden, Mrs Jan Price, who previously occupied Flat 4, it was decided by the Trustees to offer this accommodation to Richard Page, currently residing in Flat 1. Richard had agreed to act as caretaker, given that it had become apparent that a Warden was no longer required due to the change in circumstances of the residents. Mr Page would occupy Flat 4, a one bedroom accommodation, at a reduced rent contribution in exchange for his services as caretaker. To this end, the Flat was completely renovated.
A new Tenant was accommodated in Flat 3 bedsit, after some renovations were carried out.
An electrical upgrade to all Flats was started this year and is expected to be completed in 2022.
A program of on-going maintenance is undertaken, as and when required, including the upkeep of the gardens.
The property remained Covid free throughout the pandemic and all guidelines were adhered to in order to protect all residents, who were very good in following the Government regulations.
Given the great age of the building, it is necessary to ensure that all services are maintained, including drains, heating boiler, water taps and cisterns etc. To this end, the services of a local plumber/building maintenance man is used and the boiler is serviced annually.
There were no further points to report for 2021.
