HAWKSHEAD MARKET HALL TRUST:
CHAIRMAN’S REPORT FOR THE YEAR 01/03/2021 to 28/02/2022
At the start of the year, the Hall remained closed due to Covid 19 restrictions and we were not able to open until mid-May. Community organisations and activities returned only slowly: the Stage Society were unable to put on a panto, and the popular Monday evening bingo sessions were not revived. But by year-end, most other activities had resumed.
Our commercial users were keen to return: Lakeland Arts and Crafts were regular hirers; the Himalayan Bazaar were with us for the summer months; and the Christmas Fair was fully booked. All these have been very important for our revenue stream.
The accounts show that, in spite of Covid restrictions, our rental income at £15,084 was only £1,000 below that of the previous year with rental from the cottage adding a further £7,700. Covid support added a further £10,346 and dividend income £4,241. After expenditure of £28,078, we still achieved a surplus of £10,157.
We took advantage of the Hall’s being closed to get the floor of the Assembly Room (and the stage) refinished and the walls of the stage repainted in black. We also had Bownass & Harrison strip the failed render on the W façade and apply a fresh coat of render and pebbledash. This means that only a portion of the south wall is still clad in lime render.
During the summer, the north and west facades were scaffolded and Feeney & Ives completely redecorated the building (masonry and woodwork). We took the opportunity to clean the moss off the roof and make minor repairs to the gutters. We are grateful to our summer hirers for putting up with this disturbance.
Last year’s report noted that the Government’s various Covid-support grants had put the Trust in a healthy financial position and that Trustees had endorsed the proposal for a major uplift to the Lower Room. The works themselves took place in February/March 2022 and thus fall outside the scope of this report. But during the preceding months, considerable effort was expended in getting Planning Consent, agreeing specifications for the works and obtaining estimates from contractors. All the contracts were let to local companies so a considerable sum has been “returned” to the local economy.
At the AGM in September 2021, the Trust was pleased to appoint Ali and Dave Atherton as Secretary and Treasurer respectively and to note the appointment of Eileen Johnston and Tim Brown as nominated Trustees representing the Parish Council and the Freemasons.
The cottage continued to be tenanted throughout the year; the tenants made one (entirely justified) complaint about excessive noise by a Hall user which was quickly dealt with. They have earlier this year moved to Coniston and new tenants are being sought.
The Trustees are grateful to Vita Medveda for her spell as Treasurer, from which she has had to stand down for personal reasons. They are also grateful to Lesley Hadfield who continued to keep the Hall clean and tidy and accepted her resignation on health grounds with considerable regret.
Tom Macan, July 2022
