During the Covid pandemic for the last 18 months the committee:

  • Closed the hall due to Covid 19 restrictions in March 2020.
  • Briefly opened for a few occasions with Covid-secure measures in place in Summer 2020 and closed again in November 2020.
  • Opened the hall in May 2021 for Local and PCC elections.
  • Reopened, as restrictions gradually lifted – Life Art restarted in May and Yoga restarted in July.
  • Applied for and received a government grant to cover on-going running costs during the Covid crisis when we had no income.
  • Arranged for works to be undertaken on the stage and flooring to the right hand side of the stage.  These improvements will improve the stage area for drama performances

As set out in our constitution, this meeting would be open to the public and interested parties can attend. Therefore, we are pleased to publish the Treasurer’s Report and Bookings Secretary’s Report below and would like to invite comments. Please also see our our Health and Safety Report.
