## **Melville Club Chairman & Trustees Report: 2020/2021:** Due to the successive Lockdowns last year {2020} & early this year {2021}, again the Melville Club could not hold its AGM. The current Committee {Trustees} continued in office. It has been very tough on the Melville Club with a total of 3 lockdowns. We did reopen for Lunches on Wednesday 2[nd] September 2020, but due to the increase in infection rate the Committee voluntarily closed for a few weeks & reverted to delivering 2 course hot meals every Wednesday up to a maximum of some 72 Meals. Sincere thanks to all kitchen staff & to all those who rallied around through snow, rain, wind, hail & sunshine to deliver the meals, every week for 15 months. Through the Lockdowns the Melville Club Committee in conjunction with St. Mary’s Church have been delivering weekly Food Bank parcels for the needy & poor. Sadly, we have lost approximately 18% of membership, mainly due to old age, health, lost interest, due to closures etc. On a more positive note, we placed our Membership Form in the Parish Magazine twice & as a result of this we have attracted more Members to compensate the loss. The regular Melville Club articles in the Parish Magazine certainly receive positive comments. ## **Improvements:** a}. Painting all of the outside of the club. This has now been completed in time for our restricted reopening in May 2021. ’ ~ b}. Ladies Toilets tiling & plumbing etc. Now fully completed & looking great. c}. Gardens & Log Cabin: Proposed Opening Summer 2021 . Under construction & electric’s to be fitted to spec. Thank-you to those who have given time preparing & cleaning the garden, time & money spent, it looks great. ## **Refurbishment Programme: Lighting with Strip LED’s.** The dining area of the Melville Club has now been fitted with LED strip lighting & now completely finished & ready for use. When Members arrive back, they will be really impressed & of course the consumption of electricity is very small {95%}. ## **Melville Club Treasurer & Melville Club Accounts 2020/2021.** With the sad loss of well-respected Melville Club Treasurer & due to the pandemic we really struggled to find a replacement & the Chairman supported by the Committee held the ship together. Good news is we may have found a possible replacement. Current Account reflect: Income: £31517.35 & Expenditure: £30,895.53 with a surplus over Expenditure £621.82. Thank-you to all those who assisted in compiling the Melville Club Accounts 2020/2021. ## **Forward Planning & Overview.** Most of the large improvements have been completed & the Melville Club is looking very good financially. All staff & volunteers will continue to wear face masks. ## **Thank-you.** Thank-you everyone for the dedicated support, the life blood of the Melville Club & its precepts is well placed for the future. Let’s hope the next 12 months {May 2021 onwards} will be more enjoyable. RHRW: 2021.
