Chairman’s Report – 7th September 2022 

It is very pleasing to report that this year we have been able to return to a more normal footing than in previous years. Obviously the various lockdowns eventually ended and we were able to get back to our major function of providing a safe, clean and welcoming venue for both our many regular hirers and individuals who simply want to use our facilities for one off events. 

Due to the Government support and our own cash reserves, which we have always maintained to cover us in the event of unexpected costs or a sudden drop in our income, we have been able to come out of the last couple of years which have, to put it mildly, been challenging. 

We still, of course, have unexpected situations, such as the serious leak found under the Player’s Hall floor, fortunately this has now been repaired but this is another example of the need to keep our reserves at a healthy level. 

I will leave it to Derek to give a more detailed breakdown of our current financial situation and David I am sure will go in to more detail about the repairs and maintenance that have been necessary over the last 12 months. 

I am certain that we will face further challenges over the next 12 months, not least the rising cost of energy which has the potential to increase our running costs substantially. This will obviously mean that we will need to review our hirer charges to ensure that we do not run in to cash flow problems. 

As ever it would be remiss of me if I did not mention the work that Derek carries out, with the assistance of Alison, to ensure that our income is maintained and costs kept under control. I 



would also like to thank Ron for his continued work as Secretary and David, together with Sharon, for ensuring that the Halls are constantly maintained to such a high standard. Robin again is owed our thanks for ensuring that our booking system continues to function so smoothly. 

Finally I would like to thank all the trustees for their support and ability to oversee and challenge the management team on our decisions and plans for the future.
