Winterborne Kingston Village Hall
There is very little to report, The Hall continues to be let on a regular basis with several new hirers. The hiring charges cover the majority of day to day expenses ,but the cost of electricity, as reported last year has continued to rise. The hiring charges have been raised slightly from April and the slot meter installed last year has been adjusted which helps a little. The Outreach Post Office continues to use the hall twice weekly, but now for only one hour, for which the Hall makes no charge.
The Hall committee have not done much fund raising, but with costs growing slightly faster than income it was decided to do a Table Top Sale which was successful, and the Hall continues to benefit from any profits made at the Village Lunches held 3 times a year.
The Hall is very well maintained. There are a few minor problems with mould, damp etc which are being addressed
The Village Show operates under the umbrella of the Hall Management Committee . The schedules will be available shortly, for the Show on 9th August and the Annual Plant Sale is on 24th May
