HAXEY MEMORIAL HALL COMMITTEE

Chair’s report 2020/2021

With the village hall closed for well over a year, due to the Covid pandemic there is little to report and unfortunately we were not able to hold our AGM in either 2020 or 2021. We have recently restarted face to face meetings and hope that these will continue.

We suffered a disastrous and very costly underground water leak under the hall carpark in the summer of 2020 but we were also lucky enough at about the same time to be granted a £10,000 grant from the local council (as were many other organisations) to compensate the hall for loss of earnings and this went a long way towards financing the repairs required. We were also fortunate to be able to utilise the government furlough scheme for our employees and this substantially reduced our wages bill. Although we were neither able to hold our normal fund raising supper quizzes nor hire out the hall for functions, the local council continued to pay room rental for the library and our biggest hirer, Haxey Preschool, was able to open again when regulations permitted with strict Covid precautions in place. Currently our expenditure still exceeds income but we are confident this will be rectified as bookings gradually increase.

We were not inactive, however, and have embarked on a project to make our hall “greener” and at the same time reduce our electricity bills. We installed solar panels, again partially grant aided, and have since converted to Octopus energy who will buy back our surplus electricity. We hope to see some savings soon. We also purchased and erected a new advertising board to enable us to promote hall events and upgraded some of our electrical fittings, replacing old light fittings with more economical LED lighting.

As always, everyone has pulled together despite not being able to meet as usual and the hall remains a popular community asset.
