2. **Minutes of last meeting:** The previously circulated minutes were taken as read, agreed and signed.
3. **Matters Arising:** The new curtains for the stage, exit doors and window have now been fitted at a cost of over £5000. There was enough material left over to make 12 cushion covers replacing the old ones that were not fire retardant.
4. **Secretary’s Report:** This meeting was postponed from the original date of April 23[rd] and that of the AGM until further notice, due to the serious medical situation of Brenda Hutchinson, with Derek spending much of his time visiting her in hospital. Sadly, Brenda passed away on 25[th] April. Brenda first came to the centre in 2005 and joined the committee a couple of years later. She was instrumental in forming the Art, Card Making and Patchwork group activities. She also had three spells of cooking the lunchtime meals. The resignation has been received from Jan Page for the post of chairperson, but she wishes to remain a committee member. The meeting gave thanks for her work over several years. Linda Sandford has volunteered to take over. The activities at the centre have continued with good use of the hall. Two successful events have been organised of which we will hear more of later in the meeting. Although spending a lot of money, the financial situation remains healthy which will be explained following this report.
5. **Treasurer’s Report:** Martin gave a verbal report indicating balances of circa £23,000 in the deposit account and £1421.73 in the current
account and £250 cash floats. The annual accounts for 2024-25 have not been completed yet but will be done soon and audited in time for the next committee meeting.
6. **Building & Maintenance:** A lot of work has been carried out and purchases made. Listed here:- New dining chairs have been purchased bringing numbers up to the level of the old chairs, a few of which have been retained for the pottery painting group. 12 new tablecloths have been purchased for the lunchtime meals. Peter Fisher is looking at our printer re repair or replacement and the disposal of the old computers including destroying the hard drives at a cost of about £250.All external extractor fans have been cleaned, tested at a cost of £288. The fan in the kitchen needs replacing at a cost of about £900. All interior glass has been cleaned and all skylights in the hall and kitchen done, this will be done twice a year at a cost of £50 per clean. The hall ceiling has been repaired and re-painted whilst new lights were being changed and assisting the electrician at a cost of £645. Various maintenance jobs have been done including the removal of the 2[nd] Dartboard surround and the current handyman has made good and refitted the dartboard. The external guttering by the porch entrance plus other small jobs. Total cost £812.
7. **Fundraising & Events** : No written report but successful events like the Table Sale, VE Day Celebration Tea were completed. The Christmas Bazaar and Christmas Party organisation is in hand.
8. **Any Other business:** Linda Sandford mentioned the testing of the alarms which should be done regularly. It was decided that Martin/Eileen will do this on the last day of the month when they collect the cash. Martin advised that the form for renewing the lease has been sent back to Rochford District Council on 11[th] May. The drinking water fountain is not working properly and is due a visit to service it soon. It was mentioned that now we have got our defibrillator, perhaps we should pursue some First aid Training, this will be looked into. Finally,
the edging to the dining tables is breaking away and may cause some injury, purchasing some replacement material will be sought.
9. **Date of next meeting:** October 22[nd]
There being no other business the meeting closed at 1717 hrs
