I would once again thank all the trustees, treasurer and committee members. Our monthly meetings ‘in person’ were much reduced with meetings on screen with Zoom when we were ‘locked down’. - The prospect of amalgamating the Village Hall Management Committee and the Playing Field Trust has not progressed. - The Chichester Free School have not used the playing field during this year and as it seems unlikely that they will, we were able to respond positively to a request from the Chichester City Girls and Ladies teams to use the field for training and matches. Their use was briefly curtailed when there was an incursion by a group of travellers. However they were ‘moved on’ because we were able to give the police details of the disruption their presence would cause. This prompted a review of the security measures. - The Sunbeams playgroup was allowed to continue operating, albeit with decreased numbers, as it provided facilities for ‘essential workers’. - Some ideas for greater ‘Community use and improvements’ were sought and these will be considered in due course. Among these was making more use of the area on the Eastern boundary and an outdoor table tennis table. The issue of dog fouling was highlighted by the footballers and signage was introduced. Pupils from the North Mundham School also contributed through a competition to produce a poster to remind owners to clear up! - Improvements to the toilet facility in the ‘Home’ changing room were carried out also the high level windows were replaced. - In December some adult outdoor gym equipment was installed on the northern boundary. This was organised from money from the Parish Council.
