## **AGM February 2023 Chairs report** 

## **October 2021 – September 2022** 

Hi everyone, sincere thanks to all of the committee and the volunteers who have supported our work during the past year.  It has been very busy. 

Not to single anyone out but I would like to thank Sarah for her diligence in her role as secretary and Sue Fisher for her efficient maintenance of our finances, Chris, Lucy and Nick for their work on the fun day, David and Joyce for being Face Book Admin,  Lucy for producing the newsletters and John for project managing maintenance work. 

There have been no appointments or resignations from the committee. 

We have developed and adopted a child protection policy, an activity calender, a task profile.  In the 9 months we have been using the calender we have recorded that we have welcomed 128 people to the village hall for events. 

I feel that I can speak for all of us in saying that we all remain motivated by wanting our village to be as good as it can be and that we take our responsibilities as Trustees and volunteers seriously and will continue to work hard on its behalf. 

Throughout this busy year the committee has continued to regularly meet and carry out our responsibilities by ensuring the sustainability of the Trust and responsibly managing our finances and systems that have enabled us to offer a safe and welcoming village resource and a wide variety of community activities.  All paperwork has been submitted to the Charity Commission on time 

Village Hall maintenance has been ongoing.  The exterior windows and doors have been painted. The decking has been treated. With support from Breedons we have begun the task of updating the electrics to LED enabling a more efficient and cost effective approach.  We have also re installed the flag pole and had lighting installed that will light up the decking. 

The hall has continued to be used for on going and one off community activities and Parish Council meetings.  We have had 



regular bookings from Yorkshire Adoption Society, who have given us very positive feedback about their use of the hall. We now have a volunteer who now opens and closes the hall after events. Volunteers have also supported: 

- Refreshments at events 

- Activities at the Fun Day 

- Maintenance work 

- Maintaining the garden and baskets around the hall 

Thanks to our partners Breedon's, the Parish Council, our Ward Councillors and to our community volunteers.
