There are three trustee appointments to aid in the running of the Hall - the Chair, the Secretary and the Treasurer (all volunteers). In addition, local community groups using the Hall on a regular basis (e.g weekly or monthly) put forward one volunteer to the Hall Committee to assist with the running of the Hall and with fundraising efforts. The appointments and volunteer contribution are reviewed annually.
The Hall receives no local government funding. This year 20/21was an exception because 20K of COVID grant money was received.

Where the charity operates:
Llansteffan and immediate environ
The Hall is run and maintained for the good and benefit of the whole community. It is the focal point within the rural village of Llansteffan; providing a safe space for local people and groups to meet (e.g. WI, Yoga, History Society, Evergreen, HUB, Short Mat Bowls etc.).
In addition, many private and community events are held within the Hall (e.g. funeral teas, charity events, concerts, plays, film nights, children’s parties, Village Christmas Carol Service etc.).
Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)
Hire fees are kept as low as is reasonable to ensure the Hall is a sustainable resource for all into the future.

Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)
You may choose to include further statements, where relevant, about:
-
policy on grantmaking;
-
policy programme related investment;
-
contribution made by volunteers.
The contribution made by all the volunteers is huge. The Hall simply would not exist without the volunteers.
Without the huge fundraising effort conducted by volunteers the income from hire fees alone would not cover the annual costs of running the Hall. It would simply close without the work of the small band of dedicated volunteers.
The volunteers, with the support of the community, ensure it remains a positive vibrant space available to all.

Section D Achievements and performance
Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year
This period covered the turbulent period of the COVID pandemic. It was a difficult time for everyone. The Hall was closed and without the COVID grant money the Charity would have had an excess of expenditure over income.
However, during the closure the time was used constructively to complete some well overdue improvement/maintenance work. The Hall was painted internally and externally. Some internal insulation work was carried out. The floor was professionally sanded and revarnished. Other internal work was done to improve the aesthetics of the Hall.
The fundraising effort continued throughout this period.
