Strategy (how we want to do it) |
Outline Action Plan |
|
Hire charges to be at a concessionary rate for parishioners and for community based organisations. |
Village Hall Committee to review hall rates annually in November and usage in January by receiving reports from a reviewing sub-committee. |
|
Maintain the differing rooms available for hire to a high standard of decoration and with adequate furniture and facilities. |
Formal annual review in April, after full committee walkabout assessment plus ad hoc inspection to identify maintenance needs. The exterior and grounds to be inspected in the summer and internal in the winter. |
|
Hire charges to be set at a level to cover all the running costs of the hall and to build up reserves for future upgrades of facilities. |
Establish and annually review universal running costs. Treasurer to identify universal running costs and ‘one off’ costs. A publicity officer to be appointed to co-ordinate an advertising strategy. |
|
Invite parishioners and village hall hirers to comment on existing facilities and their requirements. |
Annual submissions in newsletters, by questionnaires and public meetings. A liaison officer to be appointed to co-ordinate actions. |
An interpretation of these principles is that a block booking by a non profit making group from the village that is open to all and socially beneficial will attract the lowest rental charge that the hall committee can afford. A single booking by a commercial/professional group from outside the village that is only available to persons within that organisation will attract the highest fee determined by market standards.
