The Village Hall is maintained to provide facilities for the community including local organisations, charities and businesses. It can be used for classes, parties, fundraising events, meetings, leisure activities and entertainment as well as for any other purpose as permitted by the premises licence. 

The Trustees consider that they have complied with their duties to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission.

_**A summary of the main achievements of the charity over the 12 month period, identifying the difference which the work of the charity has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries, and any wider benefits to society as a whole.**_ 

The charity continues to provide facilities for individual and business hirers, childrens parties, dance classes, families and local organisations. Children’s birthday parties with an indoor bouncy castle are still a favourite event. Evening dances and concerts with a big band sound are popular. Two bands use the hall for rehearsals during the week. Toddler and pre school activities and classes are very busy during the day in the main hall. Bookings of the premises remain at a satisfactory level and have increased slightly on last year. Improvements include the finish of the repair work on the roof. We now have a completely new roof and thanks must go to everyone who helped in achieving this great step forward. Our programme of smaller repairs and maintenance continues. A new car park suface has been laid. Front elevation has been freshly repointed. New fire escape doors have been put in place. A Fire Alarm system has been fitted to the whole building.
