## **Bramcote Memorial Hall  AGM Tuesday 14[th] June 2022** 

**Present:** Val Smith Treasurer, David Jones Trustee, Gwen Scott (Art),  Sheila Chambers Trustee , David Lancaster Hall Manager, Mark Bignall Caretaker, Steve Austin Probus, Carol Jacques and Karen Morely PlayGroup 

**Apologies:** Ron Glen, Claire Morell, Alex Taverner, 

## **2021  Minutes and Matters Arising:** 

The 2021 minutes were distributed and it was agreed there were no outstanding matters from this meeting 

**Correspondence:** None received other than those associated with the day to day running of the Hall. 

## **Chairman’s Report:** 

In the Chairmans absence his report was delivered by D Lancaster. The Trustees and Committee were thanked for their efforts over the preceding year. He also thanked the Caretaking and Cleaning Staff for keeping the Hall in good order. It was recognised there had been significant work to ensure compliance with COVID regulations. Despite the lifting of these restrictions the hall was maintaining the standards previously set although this was not mandatory. 

Given the increase in utility costs there was a need to review pricing and this would be dealt with at the end of the meeting. 

## **Treasurers Report –** 

The audited accounts for 2020/2021 were made available to those present. Anyone wanting a copy of the report should contact Dave Lancaster on dave.d.lancaster@btopenworld.com  The Hall is currently in a sound financial position. 

## **Administrators Report** 



Claire was unable to attend the meeting however she reported there were no issues. Everyone who intended to return following the COVID lockdown had done so and she had reorganised the schedules to accommodate everyone. 

Non-regular events were very buoyant and the hall was very much in demand. 

## **Operations Report** 

Everything is currently functioning well and th e only outstanding issue is the replacement of the Community Room floor. The flooring has now been ordered and the work will commence on the 15[th] August when the room will be closed for 5 days 

The ongoing programme of maintenance and decorating will resume in July/August. 

## **Election of Officers –** 

**No change and there were no further nominations. However, it was stated the existing Committee and Trustees had been around a long time and it was becoming obvious there was a need for additions to ensure the ongoing stability of the hall management.** 

**Health and Safety Report –** 

**Ron Glen reported the Caretaker had now assumed responsibility for carrying out all H&S checks and everything was in good order. The documentation was also in place.** 

## **Our Chairman retains responsibility for overall H&S issues** 

## **Allotment Report –** There are no current issues. 

All allotments are taken and there is a waiting list. 



## **AOB** 

Pricing 2022/23 DL opened the discussion by informing the meeting the estimated hall cost were expected to rise by approximately 20% during the next 12 months largely due to utility costs increasing by approx 8K pa. Additionally we have not given our staff a pay increase since 2019 whilst costs to our regular customers have been frozen for the last three years. It was generally understood Bramcote Memorial Hall has benefitted from its charitable status which has allowed us to charge lower rental prices over a long period of time, resulting in our prices being kept as low as possible. 

However, there is a reluctance on behalf of the Management Committee to make life more difficult and a lively discussion took place about what was realistic and affordable. 

The meeting agreed to review this issue separately via a sub-committee to meet in early July. This forum will include some Committee members and some hall users. 

## **Charities’ Commission** 

For the purposes of the Annual Return to the Charities Commission, it was noted that there were NO SERIOUS INCIDENTS during the year in question (or to the date of this AGM 14.06.22) 

## **The Next Management Committee Meeting will be on Tuesday 13[th] September at 4.30pm**
