WBCA/WBTP AGM 2024
Chalrmans Report
Another year has passed, but thls one has been more positive. We have secured £178k of $106
funding, which has allowed us to replace all the door5 and windows, upgrade some of the electrics,
replace all the carpets in the building and I'm happy to say the funding for the kitchen upgrade has
now been released. We hope to have the kitchen5 completed during the Christmas period. With
toilets, stage, reception and path works to follow in early 2025.
Our events continue to bring in revenue for the organisation, some have been more popular than
others but over the year they are generating a good income. Plans for more, unique and family
friendly events are being planned for 2025. Our Forest Players go from strength to strength, the first
Easter Panto was great fun and over 600 people watched the performances and I'm happy to say
they will be putting our first ever in-house Christmas Panto next December, with tickets going on
Sale shortly. Not only do the Players perform shows during the year, but the members and familie5
attend our other events, all supporting the running of the Centre.
Progress With the Whitehill club slte is now staiting to happen, talks with local funders and planners
are progressing and the airn is to bring the site into community use asap. Long-term plans for the
site are staiting to take shape and it's hoped it will eventually become a sports and leisure facility.
Filling in where the developers have failed and generating long-term income for the organisation.
Securing its future for years to come and allowing us to become self-funding.
Along with these plans, we have also put è bid in to take over the Old Fire Station and run it as a
community venue, this would help us generate more income and would give us more rooms/space
to use and rent out.
Continuing with the Centre, due to the work of our staff the Centre is becoming more and more
busy, a number of new user5 have joined us, we also now have more birthday parties, book which is
all helping to cover the running of the building. Our in-house groups continue to go well. We have
the Forest Monkeys, Monkey Movers, TJ Dance, Crazy Teapot and tea dance. All helping to support
the community and bring in footfall for the building. At this stage I feel I should thank our staff and
volunteer5 who are key to the running of the Centre, I would especially like to thank Lindsay who
puts in a lot of free hours to help run the Centre, bar and supporting me, even when I throw thin85
at her very last minute.
Going forward with the Club site, possibly the Eco station and other venues we look to run, we need
to be in a stable position to operate and generate income to become fully self-sufficient. To do this
we will overhaul the organisation over the next few months, this will Include a trustee's skills audit
to allow us to make most use of everyone's abilities. We have already or will set up the following
committees, finance, events, policies, maintenance, club site, eco station and senior management.
This will spread the workload, bring in new ideas and secure the future operating of the
organisation. The overhaul and committees will be completed by chair and vice chair, before being
signed off at the next available trustees meeting.
To end my report, I would like to say a personal thank you to those who have supported me over the
last year, I'm not the easiest person to deal with and I know it can be challenging.
