## **NWVT Annual Meeting Report 2022** Firstly, thank you for coming. This is the first time we have tried to hold the Annual Meeting as an Open Evening followed by the formal election process for the AGM. I do not intend to detain you long but it is important that there is an opportunity for input from the area and people which we are here to serve. And we would like lots of questions and discussion So a quick review of the last year and then, later, the process of electing the Trustees. I took over as Chair from Malcolm last year in the absence of any other volunteers – It will be my fourth stint over a 35 year period! My objective has been to re-energise the Trust, to become more visible and engaged in the community, and to try to develop our facilities and events. Our new Trustees – Nicky, Dave and Sarah have helped us to do that. Obviously we started the year with continued Covid restrictions but that gave us a chance to review and plan and then to catch up on some much needed maintenance which we put on hold during the pandemic. Luckily, the financial support we have received through government grants distributed by Basingstoke and Deane Council have more than covered the lack of income we incurred through closure of the Pavilion and curtailment of events. We ended the calendar year with a total bank balance of £63,429 and a surplus of £10,535 part of which was due to delayed grant payments from 2020. That balance includes £1,184 of grants towards the Petanque Court. Copies of the detailed accounts are available here and will be on our website. As a result of the grants taking our income to £34,318 we need to have them independently inspected for the Charity Commission and that is in progress. The key highlights for the year are: - Improved communication through our new Facebook Page, for which we regularly get over 600 views, and which enables us to get information out much more quickly than the Parish Magazine and website. Nicky has done a great job and has also spruced up our Notice Boards and signs so that they look much more professional. If like me you are not an avid Facebook user, please just sign up and follow us to keep up to date with what’s happening. - For the pavilion we were able to have all the walls re-rendered and painted as well as the normal day to day maintenance. It looks really smart now and we have had some nice feedback. - On the Meadow we had to do a significant amount of work on the trees, including felling four which were deteriorating. We have also planted 25 new tiny trees and 30m of hedging as part of the Queens Green Canopy project to celebrate the Jubilee. Involving the children in planting at the beginning of January was great fun and all the saplings are marked with the names of those who planted them. - We worked with the Petanque group to get planning permission for their Court and also our Outdoor table tennis table - a rather tedious process. Getting contractors was then a problem but work on the hard area for the table should be done next week if the weather allows. - We started to host various food vans at the car park to provide takeaway burgers, pizzas and fish & chips. These seem to have been successful and we will continue them as the weather improves. The also provide us with a small income. - Finally we have started work on a Strategy for the Trust and, as part of that have developed a mission statement to modernize that set out in the original Trust Deed and to provide a simple view of what we do. It reads: ## _**Providing recreational facilities and opportunities to enhance the wellbeing of those who live in and around North Waltham.**_ - Alongside this we have a set of values which set a framework for how we act responsibly in the work we do. David will give a view of how the strategy work is progressing. Looking forward to this year we have an events calendar which we are now publishing and our main highlights will be the Big Lunch and Jubilee celebration in June and then in September a new initiative of Movies on the Meadow – an outdoor cinema evening which we hope will be a success and bring in quite a crowd. We will also pick up on the thoughts and ideas you might tell us about this evening and see how we can develop them. ## **The Trustee Elections:** We have Three Life Trustees who are permanently in place: William Rathbone - the son of our founder, Adrian McLoughlin and me, Mike Robinson. Then we have Trustees who formally represent Village Orgainsations. These are: Geoff Chapman – for the Parish Council Trish Wyatt – for the Church Judith Williams - For the School Sarah Prickett for Cuckoo Meadow Pre-School The Gardening Club have advised me they do not want a representative, and I have not yet heard back from The Art Appreciation Society, WI, and Puddleducks We can then have 8 publicly elected members, though we can add more if we wish, or we can co-opt people as needed. Those I am aware of who wish to serve as Trustees are: Peter Osmond, Malcolm Knight, Julia Preston, Emma Turner, Neal Turner, Nicky Carter, Dave Prickett and, as a new Trustee Dilan Ozdemir. Is there anyone else who wishes to join us? Can I have a formal proposal to appoint those I named as a block and a seconder. Those in favour? – any against? As a last thing I want to thank you for your support tonight and I hope we can engage you as volunteers for our events during the year. **----- Start of picture text -----**
