*********
We were very sorry to lose one of our longstanding trustees, Diane Batchelor, who died in hospital after a short illness. She was always willing to be involved and do anything she could to help the Hall.
During the year, Mr Doug Richardson took over the task of sending invoices out to hirers and Mrs Wilcox and he trialled a new Hallmaster booking system, which appears to be working well. I would like to thank them both for their hard work in getting the system up and running.
We have not undertaken any major refurbishment, just general repairs, including a leak in the roof and replacement of some double glazing units, which had blown. We will be looking at upgrading the gents’ toilets this year, repainting the guard rails in the car park and repairing the wall bordering Gables Road.
Thank you to our caretaking and cleaning staff, who have done a wonderful job in keeping the hall clean and thanks also to the trustees for their support.
