Chairman’s report

In February new members were welcomed to the Committee.

People have continued to return to the Hall, with regular bookings, private parties and the hosting of charity events. The Witch & Wren has continued to open on Thursdays and Fridays although not to previous levels of attendance. The “Menus Around the World” Italian and Thai themed nights were a successful addition, thanks to Janet for the hours of slaving over stoves and the volunteers for making this happen.

The Platinum Jubilee events were a key event during the summer. Thanks to David for organising and all the committee and volunteers who made it a successful community event.

An update on other progress since February includes: The weekly events listing and signage at the reading room, organised by David, has improved communication to the Village. We are still looking at improvements to the Car Park and Website, although the patio development is on hold for the time being. Consideration is

being given to Solar Panels however attention needs to be given to the roof first. An improved sound system has been installed, thanks to David K and Bil B for helping with this.

Jill left the booking secretary role and thanks go to her for all the hard work over the years proactively making sure that users of the hall have a trouble-free event that they can look back on with enjoyment. We welcome Cathy and Mason as the new booking secretaries and wish them well in the role going forward.

Governance has been improved with key Policies having been reviewed, thanks to Karen and Nicky for poring over many documents. We also now have tighter finances with greater transparency, thanks to Sue.

As always, thanks to Chrissie for ensuring that the Hall is spotlessly clean for all our users and to Paul for responding to calls for maintenance work at short notice. Thanks go to John and the wonderful bar staff. Thanks also to Michael and the Parish Council for their advice and support.

The Village Hall Committee Wreningham Village Hall Mill Lane Wreningham

Dear Sirs

I have examined the accounts and supporting documents presented to me and can confirm that these are in accordance therewith. I have no concerns about the statements of the finances.

The accounts are prepared on a cash basis which is acceptable. I believe a simple note regarding the value of the bar stock would be helpful as this is a significant amount.

Whilst I am not an expert in this area, the insurance policy appears to be reasonable.

The finances have to date involved large amounts of cash transactions. I am aware that this is being actively reduced and hall users are encouraged to pay the fees by bank transfer. I fully support this move and would hope to see the amount of cash transactions fall substantially.

Following the move to Barclays, I would anticipate that the HSBC account be closed, particularly as there is a monthly fee. The small outstanding cheque can be written back.

My only area of concern is that the glass grant from NCC is not being claimed currently. This would give a small but useful income. There is a charge from the recycling company which is higher than it need be, as villagers are being encouraged to use the bottle bank, in the belief that there is an income. I understand that the committee is aware of this and are hoping to find a volunteer to administer this. It does not appear to be an onerous task, and I hope a volunteer is found.
