.
It has been an unusual year. Quiet in some respects, but with some challenges along the way for the Chairman and Trustees to resolve.
Security remains the main priority for the hall since the Southport incident. More procedures to safeguard the users of the hall, especially the nursery school, have been introduced. We have specified that doors are to be locked where possible. We have fitted a new thumb lock to the front door, which enables people to leave the building without needing a key in case of an emergency. It takes some time for users to get used to anything new, and it can be a bit of a challenge.
We have also introduced food waste bins throughout the hall asking all users to separate their food waste into separate bins provided. General waste and packaging go into other separate bins, which are all clearly marked.
We need to update our website as the existing one has failed on several occasions over the last couple of years. We are very grateful for Facebook as we are able to use that to give information and contact details of the hall for bookings etc.
We have installed new flooring to the back room which has enabled us to hire out the room on a permanent basis giving us extra income.
The food hub seems busier than ever and it contributes greatly to the community, distributing essential items to the vulnerable and elderly. We service over 280 families in the area each week.
The introduction of the coffee morning twice a week is still proving popular and enables local residents to meet up with their friends and meet new people. It does a valuable job of helping to combat loneliness for local residents particularly the elderly.
We're hoping to refurbish the main kitchen in the hall and we are saving hard towards this. New security cameras have been purchased and will be installed in the near future.
