## **HAXEY MEMORIAL HALL** ## **Chairman’s Report 2024** Another year draws to a close and once again I would like to thank **all** members of the committee for their continued and valued support. Each member contributes to the smooth running and/or financial stability of the hall in a variety of ways for which we are extremely grateful. **Repairs and maintenance are,** inevitably, ongoing in an aging building but as always we try to be proactive to ensure that the hall looks as good as it can. This year we have invested in more decorating to improve the fabric of the hall and library and we continue to monitor potential issues with the flat roof and structural issues in the Jubilee room… and hope we do not have to get to grips with costly repairs! We had one problem with damage following a party, but a face-to-face meeting with the hirer fortunately resulted in an amicable outcome. The highlight of the year I think we would again all agree was the planning, script writing, production and staging of a second panto in December, which was another resounding success. It was a great community event, and raised valuable funds for the hall. A massive thank you to all involved for their continued hard work and we look forward to this being an annual event! Our popular supper quizzes also bring in much needed funds and grateful thanks must go to Joan for being prepared to take on planning, shopping and cooking meals for, usually, in excess of 60 quizzers – no mean feat! Gwen, although no longer a committee member, is happy to run each quiz for us and the evenings are always well supported and very enjoyable. Bingo sessions also provide entertainment for some members of the community and contribute modestly to hall funds. In September Joanne resigned as caretaker/cleaner but we have been extremely fortunate to welcome Jonathan and Helen Ball as our new dynamic caretaker/booking clerk and invoicing duo! Having Jonathan at the helm has meant that minor problems are spotted and dealt with quickly and he is always on hand to offer advice. Bookings, both regular and occasional, have increased slightly this year and hopefully this will continue so that the hall remains a well-used community asset. So all in all a good year and if I have forgotten anything, please forgive me! We look forward then to the team – our committee – working together to make next year equally positive. I really appreciate everyone giving freely of their time to ensure that our hall is well looked after and can continue to provide a focal point for our community – thank you!
