Registered Charity No : 513249
Trustees Annual Report Financial Year 1st May 2022 - 30th April 2023
Greetham Community Centre was set up by a Trust Deed dated 31st December 1981. It is constituted as a Trust with trustees being elected at AGM tri-annually. The object of the charity is the provision of a village hall for the use of the inhabitants of Greetham; for meetings, leisure activities, classes and other forms of recreation, with the object of improving the conditions of life of such inhabitants. It does this by providing a venue and facilities for sports and social use and meetings, and is used by a variety of clubs and organisations of all ages and interests, e.g W.I., Bowls, Petanque, Badminton, Tennis , Training, Baby sensory, Keep fit, Childrens Vision group and the Rutland Supported Youth Group.
Our sports hall is also used by a local school for young adults with special needs. It is used as a meeting place by the Parish Council, and as well as social functions put on by the Management Committee e.g. Burns Night Supper, New Years Eve Party, Fireworks night, Childrens xmas party,, Halloween party, Murder mystery night, Comedy Night, and “The Gathering” - a meeting of classic and vintage cars and motorcycles and their owners. It is hired out by local residents/businesses as a meeting/ training facility or for private celebrations.
During the financial year we also held a village community Jubilee event that saw all of the village and surrounding village residents congregate for a day of fun.
The Centre receives no public funding and is run entirely by volunteers. This year has continued to be a difficult one with the community centre facilities slowly starting to get back to normal due to the Covid 19 Pandemic restrictions that had previously been in place. It was noticeable that the local community were still wary of attending large scale indoor events. This had an impact on the centres income and community interaction for the financial year.
During the year we continued to maintain the centre as required from both a buildings perspective and health and safety. Considerable work was put in by the Trustees to ensure that the centre continues to develop and grow in support of the residents. To this end the centre was able to have installed a half pipe
skateboard ramp at a cost of £14400 with a grant towards the costs from BIFFA of £10000 being secured.
Although the centre finances showed a loss in the year of around £5000 there were 2 unbudgeted costs totalling £4500 that accounted for this shortfall.
During the year and due to the steady growth in activity the trustees appointed a new employed role of Centre Manager.
At the end of the reporting period we had 8 Trustees Mrs P Evans - Chair, Mrs J Denyer – Secretary, MR R Easson, Mr R Tidd, MR E Finn, Mr K Edward, Mrs E Peachey, Mrs K Anderson. This team are ably assisted by a great team of volunteers from the community on an adhoc basis. The Watsapp group that we created for friends of the community where we can post requests for volunteers for events or teams to complete refurbishment within the centre has been a good source of co opting support. We have also increased our use of social media platforms to better educate and communicate with the local community. The updating of facilities continues and the more we do to improve our centre the more it is used.
All in all, a very difficult but another successful year and we are in a good place for the coming year.
