The main activities of the Ludgershall Memorial Hall are to provide a meeting place and facilities for the people of Ludgershall this involves offering a safe, dry, clean, welcoming hall which sustains its operation by charging for letting the Hall to various local organisations which currently include: Drop in centre/coffee mornings Mother and toddler group Keep fit Dancing Friends of Ludgershall which provides a sit down meal and entertainment for 60 elderly people and mutual support every Thursday and currently has a waiting list Yoga Kick boxing Also a local religious group, although during the year they relocated to their own premises. The hall also provides space for public meetings, including for the local Town Council, the Wilts County Council Tidworth Area Board, as well as space for local election activities. After a shaky couple of years, the new hard-working management committee members/Trustees continues to return a healthy excess of income over expenditure. At the time of writing, the whole Hall is being redecorated and refurnished internally to a very high standard. Sadly over the last few months we have discovered that the three front roof areas of the hall are leaking and need repair/replacing, and the surround parapet will also have to be removed and rebuilt at a cost of just over £28,000. The Trustees are investigating sources of Grants to offset this cost. However, as seen from the accounts we are able to cover this cost from reserves, although it will leave our reserves in the short term uncomfortably low. The Trustees remain confident of replenishing those reserves in the near future. Deirdre Lillywhite - Chairperson
