Regal Trust Report June 2014

Regal Trust Report June 2014

June was a month marked by smaller than usual audiences.  This appears to be a trend at many cinemas across the UK.  Cinema’s are very much content driven, and the content recently has been particularly poor.

The volunteers fair with stalls from over 25 local volunteer organisations was a great success.  The fair was organised by Malvern Hills Volunteering, sponsored by the Blakemore Trust (Spar) and hosted by the Regal.  True partnership working.

The Regal volunteers had their summer update meeting and social event, to acknowledge and celebrate our continuing success.

We also hosted part of the Worcestershire Film Festival, and two showcase performance for Fusion Cheer & Dance.

In the last week we have hosted another evening with the Severn Valley Railway reenactors who visited in full costume and arrived in their 1940’s coach.  We screened “Millions Like Us” starring Patricia Roc & Gordon Jackson.

We have now held two auditions for our Christmas pantomime.  The most recent for younger people.  About 30 youngsters ranging from 5 to 16 had a great time, and demonstrated what a talented lot they are.  There should be plenty of choice for the Director to choose from, and hopefully nearly everyone will get a part to play as pantomimes lend themselves to accommodating additional players.

Looking forward; this week we host the Tenbury High School Creative Arts evening, a performance by the Teme Valley Band with Tenbury CofE Primary School Choir and the Ludlow & Hereford Got2Sing Choir.  The local Here to There amateur theatre company stage a modern version of Chekhov’s Seagull,

So as usual we are keeping busy, with the premises being used by a large cross section of the community.

It was held as part of National Volunteers’ Week, to encourage people to find out more about local volunteering opportunities and showcase some of the many local organisations looking for new volunteers.
The event was organised by Malvern Hills Volunteering - a non-profit organisation, supported by the South Worcestershire Citizens Advice Bureau and Malvern Hills District Council, which promotes volunteering, provides volunteer brokerage to non-profit organisations and help individuals looking to volunteer find the right opportunity.
“The Volunteers’ Fair in Tenbury is a fantastic opportunity for people who live or work locally to come and find out more about the many varied, fun, challenging and rewarding opportunities available with local organisations,” said Jacqueline Smith, a volunteer development worker for Malvern Hills Volunteering.
“Volunteering has changed dramatically in recent years to adapt to our busy lifestyles and plenty of organisations offer flexible and short-term roles during the day, in the evenings and at weekends too, welcoming just a few hours of people’s time a month.”

Tenbury Volunteer Recruitment Fair a Success

A big thank you to all who helped with the Tenbury Volunteer Recruitment Fair.

Despite, very changeable weather I think the day was a success.  Although we only collected 6 new names, if just one of those could turn out to be as good as the volunteers helping on the day then we have taken a further step forward.


 I think the day also helped to raise our profile amongst the many other local voluntary organisations and demonstrated yet another way the room can be used.

So once again, thank you to everyone that came.
