Annual trustee report 31 March 2022
Chairman’s Report
To begin, I would like to thank all the trustees and supporters who have volunteered their time to the running of the Hall this year. I would also like to thank all former trustees
who retired during the year, in particular, John Selway who spent many years as vice chair and dealt with many of the projects that means the Hall is so well equipped today. We have a great legacy upon which to build and move forward.
The year to 31 March 2022 saw a welcome return to some normality post Covid and it has been great to see clubs starting up again. We marked the reopening with a “showcase Chedworth” event so that all the Village clubs and associations could demonstrate their wares and attract new participants.
The advent of the pop up café has seen a new use of the facilities and is proving a popular addition to the village’s social scene.
This year (2022/23) will mark the end of a long association with the pre-school which has aligned itself with St Andrews primary school. We wish everyone at the pre-school and Sarah Smith (a hall trustee) every success in this important new alliance.
Of course, the loss of the pre-school income will need addressing and there are various activities being considered. We hope to launch a monthly produce market (on the third Saturday of each month) in conjunction with the pop up café. A small group is looking at the
Annual trustee report 31 March 2022
viability of a permanent café and village shop. We continue to promote the Hall as a venue for weddings, parties and conferences as this brings in essential revenue.
We are always open to any group that would like to use the Hall on a regular basis. The badminton and table tennis clubs disbanded but we still have equipment for the latter and court markings for the former. Please do approach the trustees if you want to discuss any ideas.
As chair, I have worked with other village representatives to try and find a satisfactory outcome for the planning application on the land adjacent to the Hall and the Tennis Club. We have amended the constitution and clarified the ownership of the Hall and its relationship with the Parish Council.
Treasurer’s Report
The year to 31 March 2022 saw income of £30,673.59 (2021: £21,609.88), expenditure of £18,303.26 (2021: £21,628.91) resulting in a surplus of £11,615.27 (2021: deficit of £19.03). We received Covid related, nonrepayable grants of £13,000 which significantly boosted our reserves and is the key reason for this year’s surplus. Key items of expenditure included the refurbishment of the disabled toilet to improve its functionality for the pre-school. The cost of circa £6,500 was mainly met from support (£4,800) from the Parish Council.
Annual trustee report 31 March 2022
The bank balance at 31 March 2022 was £28,271.61 (2021: £16,500.26). With costs increasing and the loss of income from the pre-school, we will need to work hard to ensure the financial security of the Hall. Our main source of heat is a wood pellet fired boiler so we are not too exposed to electricity and gas price inflation. However, the impact on the wider economy should not be underestimated and its potential impact on the Hall’s income and expenditure.
The accounts are available to anyone who wishes to see them and will be filed on the Charity Commission website once Ian Morgan has confirmed that he has satisfactorily reviewed them.
