## **REPORT FROM CHAIRMAN OF TRUSTEES 2022/3** 

This year has seen most activities and events returning to “normal” and I think that the threat we all faced from Covid is now in the past, thank goodness. 

The Hall has seen bookings increasing and the refurbishment of the small meeting room is a success leading to a useful space for the hall to let out. I am pleased to say that the toilets have been decorated and some parts replaced to update them. The investigations into the problems in the lounge are still ongoing but we think we may have the problem sorted quite soon. 

We have engaged with the Parish Council in discussion about the land to the East of the hall and the future is looking quite exciting, we have many ideas about how the Hall can be improved in the future. 

The Jubilee event held at the Hall in June last year was a success despite the awful weather on that day and I think the village appreciated the work that was put into the day. 

Here I wish to thank Jeanette and Sharon for all their hard work to ensure that everything runs smoothly and the Hall is always clean and tidy. We all appreciate that this can be a thankless task at times so I wish it to be on record how grateful we the Trustees are for all you do. 

The Hall would not run without you so thanks very much. 

It has been a privilege to be the Chair of Trustees and I wish to record my thanks to all the Trustees for their work on the Committee 

Thanks very much Jan 

## **Brundall Memorial Hall Treasurer’s report for year ending 31st March 2023** 

I am very pleased to be able to report that the accounts show the Memorial Hall has been used more this year than in recent years – income from hire amounted to £30,683 compared to £23,064 for the year ending 2022. The total income for this year is £31,993 which is a reduction on last year’s figure of £35,261 (which was boosted by grants of £10,667 from Broadland District Council) so a promising sign for the times ahead, due to our many regular hirers complemented by the ad-hoc bookings as and when there is availability. As you will see from the accounts, the expenditure for this year has been £31,864 (an increase on last year’s figure of £22,760). However, the increased cost of living explains the majority of the additional costs - the hall has paid £3,748 more towards the cost of utilities compared to last year. The legal work involved in updating the constitution to bring it into line with modern practices continues, at little financial cost, due to the involvement and guidance offered by Community Action Norfolk. Users of the hall will have seen the new heating system and could not miss the recent painting in the toilets – the view being to keep the premises in good, clean and comfortable condition for all users. Where possible, local tradespeople or volunteers are approached to keep the community spirit alive. The main hall is in regular use, with the lounge and small room being used less often. So if anyone is looking for a smaller space to hire, please 



contact the hall administrator to discuss costs and availability. Overall, the Memorial Hall broke even this year, although once depreciation is taken into account there is a small loss. This was envisaged, so hiring prices have been reviewed and increased slightly. The reserves remain steady, so the trustees with the unwavering assistance of the staff, will do their best to keep the hall on an even keel for the future. Aileen Beck Treasurer 25th May 2023
