CHELFORD VILLAGE HALL – ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
PLEASE NOTE CHANGED DATE
The Village Hall AGM will now take place on THURSDAY 15th SEPTEMBER at 7.45 PM
The Village Hall was given to 'the people of Chelford and surrounding areas' by Sir George Dixon in 1908 and is a registered Charity.The Hall has four Trustees and a Management Committee of volunteers; it is self-supporting, non-profit making and in good decorative order.
The AGM is an opportunity for more local people to become involved in helping to maintain the Hall by joining the Management Committee as additional help is required.
In addition every Group and Society in the village are entitled and encouraged to propose a member for Committee. This will be ratified at the A.G.M
In particular we are looking for someone to take on the role of Bookings Secretary which is an online activity. This individual could also meet and greet potential hires of the Hall and also, for our regular hirers, resolve any problems which may occur.
The Management Committee is also responsible for compliance with Fire Regulations, Health and Safety issues and ensuring there is adequate Insurance protection for the Hall.
Looking to the future, the Management Committee has initiated a project to refurbish the kitchen using funds held by the Village Hall together with a grant from Cheshire East Council.
The Hall is self-supporting through income from individuals and organisations hiring the Hall and another source of additional income is generated from our '200 Club Scheme'.
Members in the scheme pay a minimum of £1 per month throughout the year and at year end half of the amount raised is paid out in prizes whilst the other half is retained in the Village Hall account. More members are needed for this scheme and forms will be available at the AGM.
