||||||Despite the above it was great to see many people throughout
the|
||||||community
get together after a tough few years to support
this|
||||||anniversary
event
in many different ways.|
||||||The contribution
of the young members
ofthe congregation
in planning|
||||||the above events and taking part in building
activities makes
it easy to|
||||||maintain
the temple
building
and keep it clean and tidy. Progress on|
||||||lower community
halI and fire alarm systems
continued
during
the year,|
||||||which required
significant
investment.|
||||||The Youth Committee
and Management
Committee
continue to organise|
||||||events,
religious
and morals classes for the young
children
and|
||||||congregation
to take part in on Fridays and weekends
These classes|
||||||continue
to see changes
in numbers
and rely on parents
dedication
and|
||||||time also. The teachers and presenters
who organise and take part in|
||||||these activities are dedicated
volunteers
who also ensure that the|
||||||children
and adults enjoy coming to and being part oftheir classes.|
||||||The Temple had an important
part to play in ensuring
a safe environment|
||||||for which to attend,
had regular reviews of its covid risk assessment,|
||||||encouraged
the congregation
via announcements
and on-line to adhere|
||||||to government
guidance etc. We were pleased
with the support we had|
||||||from all in complying
with the requirements
we set out.|
||||||The members
ofthe congregation
who attend the temple are the main|
||||||contributors
offinancial donations
by which the temple
is managed
and|
||||||maintained.
We would
like to thank them but also to the members
ofthe|
||||||congregation
and management
committee
who continue
to provide their|
||||||attendance,
service and dedication
in all our activities. Volunteers,
young|
||||||and old are essential
in building
the future
skills, relationships,
knowledge|
||||||which are essential
in advancing
the objects of the trust.|
||||||The operating
costs of the temple continue
to increase.
Costs of utilities|
|Brief|statement||of|the|and ingredients
have risen significantly
and show little sign ofabating|
|charity's||policy|on|reserves|with such costs at least four times greater than previous
years due to|
||||||market and international
factors. Most essential
upgrades
to community|
||||||hall and Are detection were completed
during
the year to ensure that the|
||||||building
remains
suitable
to support the objects of the trust. This includes|
||||||lifecycle costs as components
come to the end oftheir useful
life, such as|
||||||CCTV.|
||||||Funds are invested
in cash deposits. Whilst returns
have been minimal|
||||||due to low interest rates, opportunities
for longer term deposits are|
||||||undertaken
where cash balances are not deemed
required
in the near|
||||||term.|
||||||Reserves are maintained
to ensure the operation
ofthe Trust
in the short|
||||||to medium
term and more importantly
also to ensure
sustainability
and|
||||||affordability
in the long term for future generations
as current
levels of|
||||||inflation
erodes such reserves
and increases costs. The Covid pandemic|
||||||and unforeseen
works to the lower hall highlighted
the importance
of|
||||||having
usable reserves
to manage
uncertainty.|
