5. Chalmian's Report- May 2024
l am pleased to say thatthls 15 a muth more upbeat report than I have been able to g￿e in
Tecent years. Th15 Ls. kn large part. due to the sUPPOrt that we have been gr4en by the Parish
Coundl.
As last year I can rewrt that the vllla8e hall remains in a 8ood state of repairand is very much
open for business. However rsing running Costs are having an impact on us as, wf(h everyone
else, and we have been forcedto increase the hiring thar8e 5gnrficantty, and thls wlll have to be
Constant￿ monitored.
A'walk Round Checy wa5 done in January of this yearand several probtems were hvghlighted.
Some remain outstandln8 but the vast mèjorlty have been addressed wth the help a8aln of
some verygoodfriends of the village hall- Graham Cornell. AIEX Romang and Marion Gunn- to
name but th￿e. who carry out small maintenance jobs for us and the￿b¥ save us a fortune.
We stlll onty have onty 5 members. indudingthe offkers on the commlttee. but. because of the
Parish Council support, seem to be managin8 Qk.
We have notyet had ourAGM. but ant￿pate that the current members wlll be willingto carry
onfor anotheryear- butthatdoes notmeanthatnew members wouldn'tbe very warm
wekomedl
If anyone wants tovolunteeror have any suggestions. we would h)ve to hearfrom you.
Thank you to the Parish Council for gNen us the muth needed boosL
