## **Trustees’ Annual Report for Year April 2024 to March 2025**
## **The Hall’s Governance**
## Legal status

## Honorarium Positions
Booking Manager – Sian Smith Hall Caretaker– Mark Harrison
Other hall users could nominate representatives, but none of the local clubs has opted to do so; and we currently have no co-opted members from the businesses that use the hall. We would welcome new committee members, and have been trying to recruit a new Chair and Vice-chair; we are also seeking to appoint a new booking secretary, as the current post-holder wishes to step down.
## **The Hall’s Finances**
The Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements, and for keeping proper accounting records that disclose the financial position of the charity. The Trustees have elected to prepare the financial statement on a Receipts and Payments basis. The hall’s finances are currently in a healthy position; full details for the year are given in the Treasurer’s report.
## **Lettings for the year 2024-2025**
The hall has been well-used by local clubs, and for private and community events, as well as commercial lettings to local businesses. The sports field has once again been used by football clubs from Bletchingdon and Chesterton. A pizza van has been trading in the car park on Saturday evenings.
## **The Hall’s fabric and services**
A major project has been carried out during the year: the kitchen has been completely refurbished, with new floor, and new units and appliances. This improvement has been welcomed by our users.
Safety procedures: the schedule of regular checks has been maintained by the Caretaker. The training of Fire Wardens continues to be outstanding.
Maintenance: regular checks are carried out by the Caretaker, and essential maintenance tasks have been carried out.
## **The Hall’s future**
Looking to the year ahead, we are hoping to undertake a program of external and internal redecoration. The Management Committee members remain committed to ensuring the future of the Hall as a community asset for the benefit of all in the village and in the surrounding area.
