CHAIRMAN AND TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT FOR PERIOD 1[st] JANUARY 2022 to 31[st] DECEMBER 2022
This was the period of time that the hall will never forget - the early part of 2022 was still disrupted by Covid restrictions. The JH was lucky to survive with functions, events and regular bookings being cancelled. From mid-February and for the rest of 2022, the JH was on an ‘action plan’ for recovery.
We could not implement any of the costly upgrades and improvements to the hall as there were financial constraints - we could only prioritise what needed to be done, in order of necessity and affordability.
It was during this period that the main hall was decorated internally, and we must thank Wayne Sisson for doing such a great job - it looks a lot better than it did. Thank you, Wayne.
1. Building and Maintenance:
a. Car Park - Improvements have been made to the car park. A few potholes had been gouged up by the Blakemore’s vehicles continual use of the car park to access the rear of the Spar shop and another “trough” had developed. Outside Lighting has been improved also. All this has been rectified by Wayne Sisson
b. Hall: All other improvement projects and general maintenance issues which were due to be carried out in the hall for 2022 were carefully assessed and given the appropriate priority. The Boiler has been serviced and repaired. Energy efficient LED lights were fitted upstairs. Movement Sensitive lighting has been installed enabling better control of the electricity used within the JH. Upstairs windows need urgent repair.
3. Bookings and Entertainment: This was badly disrupted by the Covid 19 pandemic of 2021 - a large number of bookings were rescheduled for 2022 and these proved an essential part of keeping the JH afloat.
4. Bar: There must be a big ‘Thank You’ to Kim Sisson, our bar manager/licensee, and husband Wayne for running the bar and supervision of the events. Together, they continue to improve the bar and its facilities which have been transformed visually and practically. The Bar Servers area has been and upgraded with the introduction of new beer pumps, air conditioning and a new range of goods to offer - again well done Kim and Wayne and your staff - excellent service given to the users throughout 2022.
5. Staffing:
There were no staffing issues of note during this period.
6. Finance: The Treasurer, Cynthia Heath, will outline in more detail in her report, last year’s expenditure, and any known additional costs we are facing in the next 12 months.
7. Rates for Hire of the Jubilee Hall: A small increase in the rates to the hire of the hall for the main room and the ‘Angel Room’, has been implemented in line with the requests of the users at the last AGM. These will be outlined in more detail by the Treasurer in her report.
8. Future Plans & Going Forward: Our future plans remain the same as last year along with a number of projects and improvements to the hall that have been discussed by the Executive Committee and which are currently being considered for future implementation. These include fitting new windows to the Angel room, stairs and landing areas at either end, new toilet cubicles and new flooring in the toilets. These will, however, depend on funds available and any other grants that we may apply for.
We must give ‘special thanks’ to Cynthia Heath, our Treasurer, for her persistence and perseverance whilst dealing with and renegotiating our terms with the energy companies - without the time Cynthia spent on the telephone and online, we would be paying a lot more for our Gas and Electricity. We are thankful, also, with the way she keeps a keeps a tight hold on the purse strings. Without any of this, the Jubilee Hall would not have survived this very difficult time. The Treasurer’s job is time consuming and very often a thankless task. Thank you once again Cynthia for doing a great job.
Finally, I would like to formally thank all the Officers, the Executive Committee, the affiliated and regular users and our Jubilee Hall staff, for all the hard work and continued support that has been given over this period during these extremely difficult times.
We the BVCC - thank you all.
