April 2023 - Our Extension/Storeroom is complete

We are grateful to the following funders who have supported the project:

2022 AGM
The 2022 AGM was held on Monday May 30th. Chair, Elaine Stead, reflected on a successful year to 31st March 2022 in which the refurbishment of the upper hall was completed and the Hall re-opened in August. Bookings since then have excellent and a programme of events has been well attended. Elaine continued to explain that the Trustees are now moving on to raise funds for the much needed storage extension in the yard at the back of the Hall. Plans and computer images of the extension were shown. Full minutes and text of the Chair's report can be seen here.

Coffee Morning for Ukraine
The Trustees threw the Hall open on March 12th for a 'free' coffee morning. Donations were invited for Ukraine and a massive £1,582 was raised with more donations promised. A wonderful effort from Jill and her team.

2021 AGM
The 2021 AGM took place on September 7th. Chairman Bill Bourne reported on a very successful 12 months spent raising funds for and completing the renovation of the Upper Hall. The Covid pandemic gave an opportunity for the work to be done while the Hall was closed. Jill Bourne and Shian Hartshorne stood down as Trustees. Bill was thanked by residents and trustees for his unstinting work and vision through the renovation process.
At the subsequent Trustees' meeting Hilda Blythe replaced Bill as Chair. Lucy Frost was welcomed as a co-opted member of the Trustees.
