Micklefield Community Association
Trustees Report for year ended 31 March 2022
Two preceding difficult years due to Covid restrictions have passed and slowly the
Centre started to return to pre-covid times albeit with reduced bookings at first.
Talkback during the week provided hall hire income but they did not renew their
yearly contract in August 2022 but moved elsewhere.
Local elections were held in May 2021 and voters retumed as the Centre opened as
a Polling Station. As restrictions were lifted in the latter half of 2021, hirers started
to return and the Association held monthly bingo sessions again but no New Yearfs
Eve event.
The Committee were Conrned that the Centre needed an overhaul as it had been
open since 1989 and over 30 years some parts of the Centre, primarily the kitchen
and toilets would need complete refurbishment which would need careful
consideration. Some of the furniture in the Main Hall was very much showing signs
of wear and would also need replacement. Marsh & Micklefield Big Local were to be
approached for funding.
Fortunately, government Covid grants had very much helped the financial stability
of the Centre and fears of closure were dissipated.
The Committee were able to hold monthly meetings again and plan for the future
which, hopefully. will bring better times.
Thanks are due to the Committee for their perseverance in difficult times and to
Vanessa Woods for her sterling work. However, recent years have highlighted the
need for more volunteers to come forward and help with the work of the
Association.
