## **Trustee Selection** 

Trustees are appointed or reappointed at our Annual General Meeting held in November. 

## **Volunteers** 

We are extremely grateful to all our volunteers and trustees who give up so much of their own time without any renumeration to ensure the upkeep of the hall is to a high standard and compliant with all regulations related to public buildings. 

## **Aims and Objectives** 

Our continuing aim is to provide a wonderful facility offering a wide range of amenities to not only the residents of our village but also the surrounding area.

## **Financial Review** 

We strive to keep a reserve fund of £10k to cover costs such as utility bills, insurance, and routine repairs. 

Our main source of income is through the hire of our facilities. In the past 12 months we have increased the number of exercise classes hiring the hall. We have also had a couple of charity events held at the hall which have proved highly successful in increasing the takings in our bar. Our Annual Bonfire and Fireworks display is the biggest event in our calendar and continues to bring the highest financial reward. 

## **Future Objectives** 

The coming year will see us plan more entertainment evenings including live music, comedy, food tasting and increase awareness of our hall hire and venue facilities. We would also like to trial various meetings of the young people in the village during school holidays with activities such as pool, boardgames and outdoor games. We would like to recruit at least one more Trustee and some more committee members ideally from groups that use the hall.
