Abington Village Institute
Chairman’s report April 2023
The year to March 2023 was one of gradually returning to the new normal post the pandemic. The film nights began again with John Rivers as the new lead person and have gone well. The café sessions have also been well supported.
One major building issue dealt with during the year was the replacement of the walls of the Terrace. This was an expensive project mainly funded by Great Abington Parish Council from Section 106 funding arising from housing developments within the Parish. The condition of the Terrace walls had been an issue for a few years and the deterioration of the structure was becoming a concern. The work was carried out over a short period with minimal disruption to user groups. Another piece of improvement work was the paving of the untidy area under the cycle parking bars.
We have now taken ownership of theabingtons.org.uk website as a result of the Parish Councils setting up their own websites.
As ever, volunteers are what makes the Institute the great success that it is. It is very encouraging that we are seeing some new, younger volunteers coming forward to share the load. We do know that a few of our key volunteers are planning to step down over the next few months so the search for new, younger volunteers continues.
