Feedback re: display boards
WS reports we can borrow boards from Newton – suggests we go and look at them. WS/LC
Response to appeal for items for exhibition:
Although there have been expressions of interest, there has been no definite offer. We need a ‘booking system’ in place. This needs to be set up as soon as possible - 9th May 2.30pm at the Church/ Events joint meeting?
Need to ask the public at May coffee morning and have a list to sign up/prom- ise.
Penny to create list.
Seeds:
WS referred to a number of cheaper sources of seed. Also parish council can obtain seed for £38 per kg.

It was decided that Sue P would buy seed and 2x Grow-Bags
Planting on 24
th April 4pm and 26th April 2pm Need to bring forks, rakes, gloves etc
Film Night:
Pete reported that the licences are still not available for the coming year. (May to May)
A booking system was discussed to avoid overcrowding. It was proposed to create a flyer asking for expressions of interest. Members suggested ‘dona- tion to help with room hire’ rather than a request for specific donation.

Constitution
The format circulated was discussed agreed and signed by the officers. A fi- nancial year from 1st Oct to 30th Sept was proposed and agreed. AGM set for January to include election of officers.

A copy of the constitution will be put on the website (LC) and on the Notice Board in the bus shelter (WS)
Insurance
An example of a policy was circulated in advance and the importance dis- cussed. We are all personally responsible if the group has no Public Liability Insurance.
Wendy will look further into the cover offered by a local company and inform the next meeting.
The possibility of cover for individual events was discussed as a potentially cheaper option and Wendy will look into this too.

Treasure’s Report
£183 was raised at the March coffee morning so after expenses and church share removed the total came to £84.25 for the committee. Noted that raffle takings down slightly. Was that because raffle table was less visible?
£542 received from Parish Council being remainder of AD money after Arbour Hill expenses paid.
Penny will make a flyer asking for suggestions for use of the amount for the good of the village- for next coffee morning.
Coffee Morning Feedback
Members were updated about coffee morning box and stock of necessary items. All is in place. Thanks to Judi for keeping an eye on this so efficiently! New arrangement of chairs was agreed to be much better.
JJ will send photos to remind members of the arrangement.
Rosa has given 12 mugs to the group for use at the Craft Club / Coffee Morn- ing.
The use of mugs rather than cups was discussed and a proposal made to ask the Atkinson Trust to purchase IKEA mugs. 50 mugs can be bought for i.r.o. £17.

LC to write to Atkinson Trust.
LDVHN
Monthly meetings allow shared ideas and information. There is now a link on the PB website to the LDVHN site which allows users to see what events are taking place in other halls locally. Events/articles can be sent to Chris McGee via this link for addition.
Spending Plans

Lighting Church –
response to request for funding will be sent by LC – in the light of the new initiative to get sponsorship for lighting the committee will offer practical support with distribution of flyers and posters and will wait to assess response to church appeal before donating.
