Achievements and performance
Kemnay Village Hall
Chairpersons report 2024-2025
Firstly may I welcome you all to the Kemnay Village Hall AGM. The past year has been one of change for Kemnay Village Hall. stood down as Chair and I have tried very hard to fill her shoes.
We have changed the management of the hall, moving to a two-tier system of trustees and members. I would like to express my thanks to those who agreed to take trustee positions, and to those who remain as committee members.
We are currently running on a tacit location lease as our lease expired at the beginning of June 2025 but I am currently working to get a new lease from Aberdeenshire council.
The feasibility study for the CAT was carried out by SKS Ltd and it has provided us with a starting point to consider the option of the transfer. It will be a lot of work if we decide to go down this route but I believe that the committee are up to the task.
We have applied for and have an offer in principle of a grant to upgrade the hall lighting systems to LEDs, replace all the external doors of the hall, and to replace the damaged solar thermal panels on the roof, as part of an energy efficiency project.
We have hosted a number of live theatre nights, with music acts, one man acts, and The Great Baldini returning for another show. All have been popular with the community.
Kemnay Panto returned this year with Cinderella, it was a packed house for each performance and very much enjoyed by the community. Thank you to all who participated and to Jean for all her work writing and directing the shows.
Movie nights continue to be a great success with a number of excellent movies shown.
The Newsletter increased their advertising costs and continues to provide a valuable service to the community.
The community larder continues to be busy. It is a sad sign of our times that this service is needed so much. Many thanks to and the rest of the team.

The fireworks went ahead as planned, the fog on the night couldn’t stop the spectacle. Thank you to and the rest of the team. |
The other hall groups seem to be flourishing, with the coffee morning and bingo being very popular.
I thank you all for your support over the past year.

Future plans
The lease from Aberdeenshire Council to Kemnay Village Hall expired in January 2025, but is being extended by 5 years on a non-repairing basis. The Council have asked the Hall to consider transfer of ownership via Community Asset Transfer. This is a large body of work. The feasibility study was carried out. The Hall trustees are better placed to consider this action or whether to continue to renew the lease on a non-repairing basis, but it is the Trustees opinion that pursuing the Asset Transfer will potentially be the better option.
Additional information
Room rates rose by £2 p hour this financial year. The fireworks ran at a surplus and additional fund raising is to be undertaken. The Newsletter is running at a deficit due to increase in printing costs and options are being looked at. It is apparent that our electricity smart meter has not worked properly and we have been overcharged. A National lottery grant of £11000 was received to replace the projector for Kemnay Movie Nights.
