Hatfield Town Council| ||Sandy Jones|| ||Cllr Bernard Sarson|Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council| Barry extended a warm welcome to everyone – 2 years since the previous AGM because of the pandemic! He then handed over to our President, Lady Salisbury, who was full of praise for the Report provided, and then proceeded to take over the Meeting. ## 1. **Apologies for Absence** Apologies for absence had been received from Peter Hebden, Elizabeth Mendez, Cllr Linda Mendez, Davina Taunton. Barry said Cllr Caron Juggins was going to try to come to the Meeting. ## 2. **Minutes of Previous Annual General Meeting** The minutes from 12[th] August 2020 were given a quick reading by those present, agreed and signed by Lady Salisbury. ## 3. **Matters Arising** Lady Salisbury noted the list of Users differed from that of 2 years ago. ## 4. **Chairman’s Report 2020-2022** Barry reported that Morgan Sindall, who are constructing a science building for the University, have chosen Breaks Manor as their charity with the result that they have done an immense amount of landscaping work in the garden, with skips, dumper trucks, subcontractors as well, doing all sorts of things including tidying up, so we were very fortunate and it could not have come at a better time. Barry said the more successful we become – and thanks to our new Secretary Elaine – the more we have to ensure the building is fit for purpose. So, if we were to take on additional staff and things go down, we could not pay their salaries. One event over-ran late at night but we still had to prepare the premises for the next morning’s User; we even have to pay people to lock and unlock the premises. Keith wondered if it was time to review charges again; Barry added we are pretty busy at the moment. Barry then went through his detailed 2020-2022 Overview. Following the pandemic, in April there was an optimistic air and we had an increase in enquiries in contrast to the previous year; and we were fortunate to have accrued some financial reserve. With the Furlough Scheme we managed a degree of income. With staff on Furlough there were only a few left to provide the necessary backup, until early June when there were more enquiries from possible Users. By the middle of 2020-21 Services for Young People, Hertfordshire (formerly YC Herts) and Footsteps 123 had recommenced, though the former demanded a Covid 19 Risk Assessment and detailed room/route plans. In early 2021 we had several new Users, including U3A; in August we hosted an evening Celebratory Event, with Angela Rippon there, to thank all the volunteers, doctors, administrators etc. who helped with the successful vaccination programme at the University. By the end of the financial year 2021-22 virtually all our Community Groups had returned, with a number of new projects. So, with cautious optimism, Barry looks forward to the better times ahead. Services for Young People, still here, has changed and focuses on the most vulnerable, with a referral system, no universal youth work or open-door policy. However, we retain our Junior Youth on Wednesday evenings, keeping the open-door policy and with fun activities. Recently Services for Young People have increased their use of the Centre: beneficial to us. We are also very grateful to the County for continuing rental payments during the whole of the pandemic. Staffing – for most of the pandemic our staffing ratio was reduced from 5 to 2, which made difficulties, though the Furlough Scheme helped greatly as the Centre only paid 20% towards salaries. Jerry Murphy stayed, keeping the premises fit for purpose, and Julie Gill worked alongside Barry. Some staff returned in September 2021 through the volume of work began to intensify. But also, in September Julie resigned, with Bob McNab resigning soon after, followed by Jane Durbridge. However, we were extremely fortunate that Keith knew someone looking for a career change, so in that October we were pleased to welcome Elaine Jones as our new Centre Secretary. Conclusion – there has been much uncertainty for 2 years and the future looked bleak However, we have come through and Barry wished to thank all those who have contributed to our success: the Management Committee (without which the Centre would not exist); part-time ground staff Adrian Moody and George Youngman (since retired), part-time Handyman John Walker, resident electricians Chris Fitch and Gary Hopkins; erstwhile Centre Secretary Julie Gill, house staff Jerry Murphy, Keith our Treasurer; and finally our President Lady Salisbury for her ongoing support, loyalty and patronage. ## 5. **Treasurer’s Report/Approval of Accounts** Keith had provided detailed financial statements for the year ended 31[st] March 2022. 2021-2, an excellent result, had a surplus of £24,124.44. The previous year had a higher surplus at £30,705.88 but that included a fair amount of Covid-related support. Premises/grounds maintenance was £23,393.69 compared with £34,524.23 for the previous year; still high but moving in the right direction. Utilities expenditure has increased dramatically, though we have had problems getting accurate providers’ bills. We are now up to date, but Keith believes we will spend a similar amount as last year’s £17,230, but with more in future. Balance sheet remains healthy, with net assets at the end of the year of £105,819.37, all unrestricted reserves. Cash and equivalent balances have increased from £80,475.30 to £106,667.85. Total income for the year fell slightly but was still very good at £121,465.41 as against £131,753.41 for 2020-21, very encouraging as there was more government support. Overall expenditure is slightly lower at £97,340.97 as compared to £101,047 53. Keith continues to believe that the financial outlook for the Centre remains positive, notwithstanding unknown factors. The events of the last 2 years show how things can change without warning. Footsteps 123 were lost as a User; they brought a significant income but were also the cause, directly and indirectly, of significant expenditure for the Centre. Overall, Keith believes we are well placed for the immediate future, with a sound financial base. Lady Salisbury duly signed the accounts as approved by the Management Committee. ## 7. **Nominations for Committee Members** Since he was no longer a Councillor but wishes to remain on the Committee, we have to ratify Peter Hebden as a Committee Member. It was therefore formally proposed by Eric, seconded Keith and agreed by all. Barry said Caron Juggins will be joining the Committee as a representative of the Borough Council, which brings us up to the required number. ## 8. **Any Other Business** Richard then presented an enormous cheque to Breaks Manor for £600, as Breaks was his chosen charity while he was Mayor of Hatfield Town Council, for which he was warmly thanked by all present. Fund-raising – Richard knows some of the local artists groups and they have kindly donated several abstract paintings to Breaks, to be auctioned/sold by Breaks. Lady Salisbury commented that the meeting had been wonderfully informative. She praised Barry, who knows all about youth work, and thanked everyone for all that they do: the Management Committee and all the people mentioned by Barry. ## BREAKS MANOR ## LIST OF USERS ## 2024 - Bangladeshi Prayer Group - H’arts in Mind - Art Group - Carers In Herts - Meetings - DS Achieve - Brightside Preschool - Inclusion Group - Line Dancing - Men In Sheds - One YMCA Baby Drop in Group - Rephael House Counselling - Services for Young People - Stage Call - University of the Third Age - Football Group - The Craft Room - Kirsty Lemare – Counselling - Potters Heath Church _On top of our regular bookings, we had from the community 24 Saturdays & 17 Sunday events, plus The Happy Camps Program here through the School Summer Holidays and half terms_ _Ramadan was held here again this year which was in March for 30 Nights 11pm – 12.30am_ 11 1lilFIi'.. LOFT BEFORE iK 11 LOFT AFTER ## **Opening statement** On the 31st of March this year our Financial Year 2023/24 came to an end and as such the content of my report will concentrate largely on events related to that period. At our previous AGM I was able to inform everyone that despite a huge capital expenditure on internal refurbishments we had managed to maintain a comfortable bank balance due to the increased client usage of the Community Centre. Therefore, being aware of further works imminent we felt able to proceed in a similar fashion. The detail of which I will focus on when I refer to Premises. At this point I need to say that much of the Centre's success has largely been due to improvements in our marketing strategy. Our website constantly highlights new opportunities, ongoing day to day community events and weekend provision. Telephone and email enquiries come in at a regular pace. PORTA CABIN REMOVAL ## **Fundraising** Whilst fundraising is not quite as important as it once was, we do still like the ideal of accessing funds where we can. As I said under premises, we were fortunate to receive the £4002.29 from the section 106 and the £240.00 from the real tennis club, we were also fortunate to participate in a scheme called the Local Community Fund run by the cooperative Society, which enabled us to receive £745.50. We also participated in the government scheme Warm Spaces, which enabled people to keep warm in the lounges, we received a grant of £2000, which we were able to invest various amounts of money towards a newly refurbished kitchen and furnishings for the games room. Equally not all funding is of a financial nature, we also receive various pieces equipment in kind but totally free of charge, as we did from AGMS Foundation, despite having not made specific efforts to rase funds we did do particularly well. However, sadly this year and purely because the dates we didn't have a Lady Salisbury's Coffee Morning. Similarly, we put on a Christmas Fayre which didn't do at all well for a variety of reasons, however we did not loose any money. We will try again this year, taking on board the experiences learnt from the last. We would like to make greater use of our lovely garden's but sadly our climate can never be relied upon. Our large sports field remains under used every year purely because the council will not allow us a gate to egress the field and my biggest fear is that they will eventually take it for building. And then you can bet your life access in and out will be granted!!!!!

Based here in the centre of Hatfield, and situated in its own palatial gardens it offers an excellent venue for the Community. Equally, being close to the railway station, bus routes and road networks makes access really easy. New and regular users often comment on how Lovely the Centre looks and the opportunities it provides. Therefore, once again it is incumbent on us to continue to maintain it to as high a standard as is humanly possible. Understandably this does not come cheap as goods and services increase on a daily basis. Also, whilst we can plan to undertake certain projects, these can be easily overtaken by a more pressing need. For example, a complete shutdown of the heating system, aimed at stemming a number of leaks and faults in the radiator system. Issues around flooding and the need to fell damaged trees. However, we were nonetheless able to undertake a vast number of projects which I can now document. This included, a complete repaint of all walls and ceilings on both the ground and first floor, which also took in the adjoining stair well. This was followed in similar fashion to both the games room and main hall. Later in the year we were also able to completely recarpet the ground and first floor, stair well and admin offices. In June 2023 we were fortunate in receiving £4002.29 from section 106 funding which enabled us to repair the crumbling brick work on the floodlit play area which was causing concern under health and safety. Work was also underway to the exterior of Enterprise Hall. Whilst the work continued on the first floor, we emptied a room which for years had merely housed old music equipment. This was given to a local school and the room is now a modern usable kitchen which can be used in conjunction with the upstairs lounge. Whilst all of this work was funded by ourselves work on the exterior of building, around the forecourt was carried out by the district council, making improvements to exterior wood cladding. So, as you can see a lot of improvements have been made to the premises once again. However, as previously mentioned we have had to deal with a number of issues along the way. Our porta cabin which we had used for some years, finally had to be demolished due to rotting timbers and wood lice. Lighting and alarm issues often occur and of course the inevitable Episodes of vandalism!! None the less overall a relatively successful year. sr OLD MUSIC STORAGE CUPBOARD rp CONVERTED INTO A KITCHEN ## **Services for Young People Hertfordshire.** As previously mentioned in earlier reports the Youth Service of the past has changed beyond all recognition. Gone is universal youth work where all young people between the age of 13 and 19 could attend has been replaced by issue-based provision, where young people are referred by other agencies However, despite this the service is still provided by the Hertfordshire County Council so we are never the less pleased that they continue to use our premises for service delivery. ## **Breaks Manor Junior Youth Club** Every Wednesday Evening between 18.00 to 20.00 hours the Centre provides its own Junior provision for young people aged 8 to 11 years. The centre attracts up to 30 young people and is open to all. The club has run for over 50 years but sadly becomes increasingly more difficult to manage each year. Just recently, Amanda Pedley who had been with us for a long period time had to leave us, due to other commitments, but fortunately, with luck Sarah Jackson one of our house staff stepped in to help. However, it proved how vulnerable we are, because without a female member of staff we cannot operate. Whilst ever effort is being made to recruit more staff there is not the willingness there once was! BEFORE ## **The Estate** We are fortunate to occupy the amount of land we have surrounding the house. We have a number of grassed areas and attractive flower beds, we also have flower tubs and hanging baskets which now adorn the premises. Users often comment on the attractiveness of our grounds, as I have said previously, we would love to make greater use of them but our climate is too unpredictable. Obviously having such a large expanse of ground, brings with it a number of problems for example, in the summer time there is the issue of watering, lawns have to be mown, hedges have been trimmed, weeding on a regular basis and concrete areas power washed. In the winter our main focus is on leaf clearance and unfortunately flooding in specific areas. Equally, with the large number of trees on site we have some in need of attention either to be felled or pollarded. As you can see this requires a great deal of attention. Fortunately, we have Sandy Jones who is on our management committee who regularly attends to the gardens assisted by Community Payback. At this point I'd like to say how saddened we all were at the loss of Adrian Moody who died early in the New year. Adrian was a professional nurseryman with an abundance of horticultural skills. He will be greatly missed. We are grateful that we can achieve all of this with such a small number of willing individuals. OFFrcE I i//. BEFORE I,/// AFTER ## **Conclusion** Once again, I think it is safe to say that we have come through the year with reasonable success. A great deal of work has taken place to both the premises and grounds. Our improved marking has brought about a greater awareness of the Centre's potential and as a result bookings have increased enormously. Our Junior Youth provision remains popular and our day-to-day users remain loyal to the Centre. All this is achieved by a very small number of people, who remain passionate about Breaks Manor.

(remember to include the page numbers of additional sheets)||| **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Charities Act”) and that an independent examination is needed ## It is my responsibility to: - examine the accounts under section 145 of the - Charities Act, • to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and - to state whether particular matters have come to my - attention My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual **Basis of independent** items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking **examiner’s statement** explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention (other than that disclosed below *) which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect: - the accounting records were not kept in accordance - with section 130 of the Charities Act; or - the accounts did not accord with the accounting - records; or ## **Independent examiner's statement** - the accounts did not comply with the applicable - requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination. I have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached. - _Please delete the words in the brackets if they do not apply._ **----- Start of picture text -----**
