To provide Public rooms for the benefit, without religioud, racial, or political distinction, for the residents of Penruddock and neigbourhood. The rooms to be used for sociable, educational, and recreational purporses. Fitness activities and instruction. Indoor sport, Table tennis, Badminton. Craft workshops, Dramatical, and musical entertainment. Community breakfasts, Coffee mornings, and library. Children's clubs, Beaver scouts, and School PE.

Penruddock village hall trustees provide and manage the venue for use by community groups for most of the above activities, apart from the community breakfast and Coffee mornings.

Although the Trustees have required policies in place that are reviewed annually, Hirerers of the hall are obliged to ensure that thet have required policies in place for the events organisers, and attendees who are present during their hire of the venue.

During the period of 1/1/24 and 31/12/24 the village hall made great progress to reduce the ammount of imported electricity used to heat and light the hall by installing roof mounted PV solar generation, and Air to Air heating in the main room of the hall. The anticipated reduction in power costs has been predicted to be approximately 60% for the 2025 period taken from the useage up to sept 2025.

Financial savings from reduced power costs will enable the hire charges to be maintained at an affordable level for community members wishing to hire the venue. The 2024 period also saw the introduction of travelling entertainment provided by 'Highlights' at reduced costs, enabling small venues such as village halls to put on shows feturing professional artists at affordable prices, to local communities. These events proved very popular and brought the community together for nights of fun and entertainment.

Funds are managed and held to a level ensuring that any unforseen emergency repairs can be carried out without the need to go into defecit financially. The hall is fully insured to cover the event of claim or damage to the building.

The hall funds have never been in defecit since it was opened in 1905.

Any proposed capital projects or major repairs are 'where possible' financed by grant funding and accrued hall funds. Previous funding has been aquired from the national lottery, ACRE assisted aquisition of funding grants from various sources, Hadfield Trust, Cumbria Waste management trust, Eden district council Cummunity funding.
