Section D Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year

The existing central heating system failed & was beyond repair due to its age & poor condition. Grants totalling £25k were obtained to fund most of the costs associated with replacing the central heating system & insulating the roof space. The total cost for this project was circa £33k which reduced the reserve funds.

£10k from the national Lottery Fund

£15k from Lancashire Environmental Fund

Cubs & Scouts, Dancing Tuition, Dog Club, Toddler Group & Karate continue to use the Hall on a regular basis. However, the individual running the Dancing Tuition retired at the end of 2022 which will significantly reduce the hire income in 2023.

Sue Yates (Chairman) resigned from the committee in October due to a disagreement over the future direction the Hall should take. Paul Entwistle took over as Chairman as well as continuing with his Secretarial duties.

Hayley Mahon joined the committee & took on the role of Booking Secretary.

A local person continues to maintain the grounds & conduct general cleaning / maintenance activities & this is proving to be very successful.

Three major community events were held, all of which were very successful & raised additional funds:

• Easter Fun Day

• Queens Jubilee  Christmas Fair

Due to the age of the building such costs can be significant & therefore appropriate funds are required to be held in reserve.
