The trustees appoint a chairperson. New trustees are appointed by asking for volunteers at the AGM. 

The purpose of the charity is to provide a community building for hire for private and public activities and events. A secondary purpose is to provide social activities for the residents of Wreningham, including Tow Row and Penny’s Green. All decisions are made with the benefit of the residents as the primary focus. The guidance from the Charity Commission is adhered to for this purpose. 

## **Annual statement year to 30[th] September 2024** 

The hall had a successful year, with increased bar takings and hall lettings, thus supporting the community as a social hub. A particular highlight was a weekend in June with the Village/School fete followed by a wonderful Open Gardens, the first in the village for many years, with over 350 people enjoying visiting fourteen gardens, raising £3,000 for the church. This was organised by a small group of volunteers who have agreed to continue arranging events for the villagers to enjoy. 

However, costs have risen and we recorded a deficit for the year. Staff wages and energy costs are increasing and whilst maintenance tasks are generally carried out by kind volunteers, equipment must be paid for. We were fortunate to be awarded a £15,000 Community Fund grant to allow us to completely refurbish the kitchen which is now ready to serve the community for many years. 

Our chair of trustees, John Knight, stood down at the AGM and was thanked for his service and later presented with a token of appreciation. 

Finally, we were deeply saddened that one of our regular hall hirers passed away very suddenly. We offered our condolences to his family and friends, and thanked them for their support over the years.
