APPLEBY VI LAGE HALL TRUSTEES Trustees 2023124.- Addressforcorrespandence Chapel House Risby Road APPLEBY DN15 OAE (01724) 732230 Mr. D. Hall (Chair) Mrs. E. Stoddart Mr. A. Palmer Mrs. P. Owston On¢ vacancy Trustees re ort for 2023/24 This has been another busy and d¢manding year for th¢ Villag¢ Hall and the Trustees note the hard work and commitment shown by the Management Committee. They have diversified the organised events, which now take place at least monthly and have been well received. They have also promoted th¢ Hall, resulting in a slight increase in lettings. At thc samc time they have paid duc diligcncc to thc fabric of the building. It is pleasing the see the Community Café going from strength to strength and is now regularly attended by other agencies such as Police and Social Services. It is unfortunate that certain arranged events have not always been well supported but this is enlirely in kecping with the experience of similar organisations. There is so much competition now for people. s time and money, and the younger generation also want to run th¢ir liv¢s through a different rnedium. It is encouraging that the Managlement Committee continue to face up to these difficulties by organising events. Looking more closely at the accounts and reports. we consider that . a) Sccretary's position. If an elected Secretary isn't in place then the VH Constitution isn't being complied with and thc Charity CommissioncTS have to bccomc involvcd. The 3 main committee members who are essential to the lawful operation of the Hall are the Chainnan, Treasurer and Secretary, and without those roles being filled then, in theory, the Village Hall can't function. b) Consider electing a secretary paid out of funds on an ad-hoc basis if a suitsble voluntser doesn't com¢ forward. This person then p¢rfom]s th¢ tasks nonnally associat¢d with the secretary, such as applying for IiLenses, correspondenie and liaising with other bodies such as North Lincs Council. c) The lease on the field ¢xpired on the 4 April 2024. Discussions took place with a leam of local solicitors and the Estate through Saville's of Lincoln, to extend the present lease. We were granted this extension until 4 April 2053, a terni of 29 year8 Wlth an increasc of the yearly fec to £1 00. d) The accounts have been produced by a diffcrent organisation and in a different forniat this year, and our thanks are extended to the previous Treasurer Mr. John Clark for his diligence in compiling the financial accounts. The Trustees were slighlly concerned by the possible confiict of interests with the new accountants and Management Committee mernbers. There needs to be clear transparency in accounting al all times. e) We are of the opinion that joint fund-raising should be considered with the Village Hall and the Church. The Charity Commissioners do allow funds to bc split prior to them being entered in accounting systems - what they don't perniit is 'Charity to Charity, donations. The Trustees note the high standard of cleaning taking place within the Hall and thank Mr. Kendal for his hard Work and for taking on the role. Subject to the above, the Trustees have no further issues to raise except to once again thank the rnembers of the Management Committee for all their hard Work throughout the year. Without this, the residents of Appleby would not be able to enjoy such excellent events and facilities. We trust residents will show their apprlatIOn by joining oth¢rs who alr¢ady work tir¢l¢ssly to support your Village Hall.
