TRUSTEE'S REPORT 2026
The Trustees are very satisfied with the day to day running of the
LAYCA Community Centre.
th
We are now in our 28 year and are well established in the
community and get good support from the public.
There are activities taking place on each day of the week, Dancing,
Yoga, Pilates, Slimming World, Stay and Plays and our weekend
bookings are very good. We also have a lovely Pre-school in the
building who we work very closely with.
Our Bingo sessions on Wednesday afternoon and Friday evening are
well supported and people do enjoy it. Thanks go to Joan and her
team for running it so successfully.
Our finances are in good order thanks to the work that our
Treasurers Callum and Carol do. The building is in good order and
thanks go to the team Callum, Carol, Bill and myself for taking care of
it.
I would like to thank my fellow Trustee's Ann Hunter, who is also our
secretary and Gary Allport who is our President and our Committee
and Volunteers. We rely on them very much and their help is much
appreciated.
