## **’ – Chair s Report 2022/23: Charity reg no. 305266 Icklesham Trusts Committee** 

**Annual Review:** 2022/23 was a successful year both financially and activity wise. We performed well against the objectives set for the year. I record my thanks to a wonderful committee who got a lot done, in good spirit. 

**Finances –** Despite our having to cancel the Summer Fete (a major income source for us) because of extreme weather, we ended the year with a healthy surplus and significant funds in the bank. Although the surplus was well down on prior year, we received a large grant last year to upgrade the hall with much of the expenditure coming this year. Hall bookings were very strong.  We received a grant to help us with the support costs for various Trusts’ activities; expenditure will largely be in the coming year. The Parish council continue to provide grant support, which is well appreciated. 

**Activities:** The monthly local produce market is now well established. Besides being popular with villagers it makes a profit. I am grateful for the volunteers who put it together every month. The newly formed Tuesday club was a success. During the winter months villagers, come together at the hall for a good chat, play various games and have some good food. Icklesham Panto and Drama Society put on a very successful pantomime; very much enjoyed by the local community. 

**Affiliated Clubs:** Football, having been promoted, the team had a challenging season. However, they finished strongly and were at good strength going into the new season. In stoolball Icklesham fields one of the strongest teams in the area and their tournament is very well supported by teams spread across Susses and Kent.  Rye-Icklesham cricket eleven continue using the recreation ground and pavilion. The team includes several youngsters which is encouraging for the future. We again had the Ickesham vs Rye charity cricket match which raised a good amount for the local hospice. The art group had to say farewell to its long-term chairman who moved area, but a new one has stepped up and the club continues to flourish. The horticultural society had an excellent spring show. Although the fete had to be cancelled the flower show could go ahead in the hall. The 



society is increasing its membership and there are several new activities planned. The youth club which was restarted last year secured a grant which assures its future for at least a couple of years. The leader took the young people on a muchappreciated weekend summer camp. 

**Pavilion:** A plan covering the upgrading and funding of the existing pavilion was outlined to the village via the village web site, the parish magazine and at two ‘open mornings’. Feedback was incorporated into the final plans which were presented at a well-attended village meeting in September 2023. Attendees voted by a very large majority to both accept the plans and to allow the monies collected for a new pavilion to go towards the cost of the upgrading. I am most grateful for the the generosity of the many villagers and club members who raised money over the years for the pavilion fund. I also recognise the support of the football club and a local family for their financial contributions.   With all combined, we have sufficient funds to go ahead. The Parish Council supports the project, and we have now received planning approval, with work beginning April 2024.
