# **BLISWORTH VILLAGE HALL AND PLAYING FIELD ASSOCIATION REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31st MARCH 2022 CHARITY REGISTRATION NUMBER 304161** 

**Objectives:** The primary aim of the association is to provide leisure facilities to the people living in the Blisworth village. The charity maintains the village hall and playing fields and collects revenue from the hire of the hall, rental of land for a telephone mast and running a raffle. 

**Organisation** : The board of trustees comprise:- 

Colin Gardener - Chairman 

Jane Percival - Vice Chair Person 

Alan Lewis - Treasurer 

Ann North - Secretary 

Margarete Field - Independent 

Anne Goss - BMC 

Gary Edwards - Football Club 

## **Representatives** : 

Pam Otten-Independent, Maureen Lucas -Caretaker,  Stan Tyrrell – Bowls, Ray Andrews -  Heritage, Estelle Rose – 250 Club, Fiona McKenzie - Women's Institute, Janet Steeper – Blisworth Friendship Group. 

**Review of activities:** During the year the charity had a total income of £27,017 and expended £8,344 which resulted in a surplus of £18,673. The charity has accumulated funds in the bank of £97,542 which is available to meet the maintenance requirements of the village hall. Unfortunately, due to the pandemic, one of  our rentals Blisworth Pre-school has folded and another Blisworth Bowls Club has reduced its sessions.  Also the mast income is expected to reduce.  We are trying to improve the facilities and make them more attractive.  Last year’s objectives were all achieved and we intend to upgrade the kitchen, install a drinks water heater and a better water heater to all the sinks and basins in the forthcoming year. 

Approved by the Board of Trustees on the 19th May 2022 

…………………………………. Alan Lewis, Treasurer
