## ELLESBOROUGH PARISH HALL ## ANNUAL TRUSTEES’ REPORT Ellesborough Parish Hall Trustees' Annual Report for the year ending 30[th] September 2023. Ellesborough Parish Hall Registered Charity 279679 Ellesborough Parish Hall Ellesborough Road Aylesbury HP17 0XA The Trustees present their report for the year ended 30[th] September 2023. Chairman's Review The Trustees of the Ellesborough Parish Hall Charity are delighted to report another successful year for the Village Hall, which continues to provide a wide range of opportunities for members of the local community. The Trustees, which comprise the Ellesborough Parish Hall Committee (EPHMC), all work hard in their individual roles in managing the day-to-day running of the Hall and I am very grateful for their ongoing support. Our ever-efficient Treasurer, Paul Oldroyd , has produced a Finance Report describing the income, from both private hire and events, and expenditure during the year. Our aim is for all hirers of the hall to have a positive experience when using the facilities and we do our best to act on feedback and requests in the best interests of all. Elizabeth Hine , our bookings secretary, has worked hard to promote and organise both existing and future bookings. Sally Withey has continued to play an important part in the success of the Committee by administering and promoting the 200 Club – a main revenue stream and a chance for the local community to support this lottery which is drawn each month. This also advertises the activity at the hall and keeps our local hall at the forefront of the surrounding area. This year has been one of mainly routine repairs and general maintenance. We are enjoying the improvements made in recent years, such as the redecoration of the hall and the new heating system which has made a big difference to our users and the general comfort of the hall. We plan to refurbish the toilet facilities in 2024 which will also make a significant difference to the comfort of the hirers. As a community, we are very lucky to have the support of many individuals who give their time and services on a voluntary basis, all these acts are much appreciated. We also continue to be fortunate to have other dedicated village organisations who we work alongside to collectively benefit the community in many ways.
