Section D Achievements and performance
Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year
Like most similar facilities throughout the country, the Hall has remained closed this year as a consequence of government Coronavirus restrictions, the requirements of our insurers and the absence of any requests to use it.
The Trustees have used this interregnum for two purposes:
-
To assess the physical fabric of the building and commission improvement work. This has included the required five-yearly inspection of electrical safety which was satisfactory. This was used as an opportunity to replace the emergency lighting and upgrade RCD to all circuits. Plans were also agreed for redecoration of the building and to rectify a leak from roof guttering. A weekly inspection of the building was carried out during the closure in order to protect the building and comply with insurer’s requirements.
-
To prepare for the re-opening of the hall by carrying out a comprehensive risk assessment of Covid-19 risks in accordance with government and HSE guidelines. This has entailed revised cleaning arrangements, re-writing the conditions of hire to specify obligations on hirers’; installation of signage, hand saniters at entry and exit points and additional cleaning materials.
