Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)
This year has been a full year “like no other” in the history of our village hall. We started the year with a Covid-19 Lockdown and the hall was closed completely until the 15[th] June. Then with some restrictions still in place and with various rules and procedures including complex risk assessments being carried out we were able to hold some “Wednesday coffee mornings” (4 in total), these were well attended and very much appreciated by all, we funded these by donations only, and this seems to work very well. From 14[th] September further restrictions ended these. Then came the second lockdown on the 5 November, this put an end to any Christmas plans, again the hall was closed until further notice, as it turned out, the hall remained closed well past the end of this financial year. Despite these closures we managed to meet the governments covid-19 requirements including.
1. Being “Covid compliant”, with materials and posters as required.
2. Meeting “Covid regulations”, producing risk assessments, plans and procedures.
- Carrying out “Covid clean” the entire building was cleaned several times .
All of this required constant updating.
Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)
The Committee considers that it has a duty not only to maintain the Village Hall in good condition and to meet all legal requirements but also to improve the facility, better to meet contemporary needs, including due attention to current environmental issues.
You may choose to include further statements, where relevant, about:
-
policy on grantmaking;
-

-
contribution made by volunteers.
