Sanday Community Association President’s Report 2024
We ran cards nights throughout the winter, and are very grateful to for organising these. He was pleased with the attendance numbers.
We run Bingo nights every second Saturday night throughout the year and these are very popular. We are very grateful to or continuing to organise these and encouraging new people to attend.
We ran our annual keyholders’ training in February and updated the Keyholders Booklet. We also trained several new keyholders during the year. Our buildings continue to be used every night of the week, during the day and at the weekends.
We ran a very successful Folk Festival Ceilidh in May with several visiting acts. Members of the committee and others provided accommodation for the artists and provided their dinner and tea. We staffed the bar and committee members helped serve the dinner and tea, made sandwiches for the supper and worked on the door. We were again unable to sell tickets in the shops this year as all tickets had to be bought online (with a £2.50 handling fee). Most islanders ended up buying tickets at the door to avoid the £2.50 extra fee.
The Swimming Pool has been open for most of the year. We have changed some of the sessions and added new ones to encourage more people to attend – we reinstated an after school swimming session on a Monday so pupils can come through straight after school. We added a wellness session on Monday evenings and an Aquafit session – both of these have been very popular.
We are very grateful to our Lifeguard Trainer Assessor and Pool Attendant who has had a lot of hassle reporting and chasing up problems with the pool. The latest problems being with the water heating machine which keeps tripping the fuse. She has trained a new group of lifeguards, which has meant that we can run the extra wellness and public sessions. has also trained an extra Pool Attendant who can cover when they are on holiday.
We would also like to record our thanks to our voluntary Lifeguards and keyholders for continuing to keep our pool running smoothly and providing as many sessions as we can for locals and visitors alike., and to our Pool Attendants,
We would like to thank our caretaker, for keeping the buildings lovely and clean, and also for stepping up to be another relief Pool Attendant. Thanks also to for continuing in his job as our relief caretaker.
We are very grateful to for continuing to do the payroll for our employees, as well as keeping all our accounts in order.
During July and August we ran the Village Hall Scheme again, employing 3 workers who shared out the 206 hours between them. The numbers were slightly down on last year, but 325 people attended, 53 of these were visitors to Sanday. We are grateful to the Sanday Community Council’s Spurness Fund for giving us a grant to cover the costs of the wages for the workers and equipment. One of the issues that arose from this was that our Child Protection policy was out of date. Head Teacher, is reviewing the policy for us.
We ran the bar for the Agricultural Association for the Cattle Show dance and the Harvest Home, employing 2 bar staff and raising some extra money for our funds.
The Bouncy Castle, after its repairs last year, passed its inspection this year.
We were advised by the Community Learning and Development department of the Council to apply to the CLLD fund to replace our community kitchen. Orkney Islands Council gave us a letter to say that we are leasing the Community Buildings from them. This allows us to apply for external funding to upgrade our kitchen. We applied to the CLLD fund, which is money the Council get from the Scottish Government. However, the deadline was too tight for us to obtain all the necessary building quotes, so we had to withdraw from that round of funding. We did manage to get a building warrant in place, and we applied and received a grant from the SSE Spurness Fund for £10,000 for the equipment for our new kitchen. The Council architects drew up a plan for our new kitchen, so we have everything in place to apply for the next round of CLLD funding which opens in April 2025.
Joint meetings have continued throughout the year between the Development Trust, Community Council and the Community Association. Meetings can be attended either in person or via Teams. The Council attendees usually attend via Teams. These meetings have been sharing information about what each group is doing and how we can support each other to do the best for the Sanday community.
We purchased a new laptop for the Community Association and it has been given to the Treasurer for doing the accounts and wages. The other laptop we had which we used to connect to the digital projector has now become redundant as people now connect to the Smart TV with a pen drive. This laptop is now in the possession of the Secretary. She has copied all the Community Association’s documents onto it from the Community Association’s external hard drive. The hard drive is in the possession of the Chair.
We supported Rod Thorne in his project “75 years of the North Isles Sports” by providing a community group from which he could access funding in collaboration with the North Isles Landscape Partnership Scheme and supporting his series of talks about the North Isles Sports in each participating island and on the mainland of Orkney. We helped him to develop his project to Stage 2 which required more funding to put all his research into a book. This book is now nearly ready to be published and will be on sale in time for the 75[th] anniversary of the North Isles Sports which will be celebrated in Sanday on 21[st] June 2025.
Our defibrillator is now obsolete and we received £1000 towards the purchase of a new one from Scottish Sea Farms. We applied for the rest of the money from the SSE Spurness Fund and received it. The new defibrillator will be installed, by an electrician from Scottish Sea Farms, on the wall outside the community buildings at the end of February 2025. The doctor who will be on duty from April till July 2025 is willing to run classes for people in the community who would like to learn how to use the new defibrillator.
