MEK Meeting 2024-08-29

Henry S. +Thompson
Tuesday 29 August 2024
7 Victoria Terrace
Copyright © 2024 Henry S. Thompson CC-BY-SA

1. Attendance

Eliza Giles (EG), Ken Latham (KL), Majk Stokes (MS), Henry S. Thompson +(HST)

2. Report on MHMC meeting 2024-08-27

HST shared aspects of the Committee's meeting:

C'ttee very pleased with staff's stepping up in challenging +circumstances.

MS to be given the title of Acting Manager

Salary uplift to continue until new Manager in place, at least through +October.

Interviews and appointment of new casual staff can be done for October if +it's clear that help is needed due to bookings received.

MS to move forward with carpet

3. Staff feedback on the last seven weeks

3.1. Problems

A number of missing or broken items. Consumables were often missing; loo roll +didn’t arrive until 15/8, soap often missing. E.g. one Sunday when no loo roll in any of the +loos.

We had to do some emptying of bin bags.

WiFi - This impacted our own ability to do our own work, because of +low bandwidth and/or ‘no internet’

Kitchen - Not our cleaners job, did CV expect it? MEK cleaned it +from time to time: sweeping and wiping surfaces. Performers in there? Gap(s) in +the licence. Food out, so mice flourished. Fridge available? “You have to name +and date your food, or we’ll through it away”. Buckets left with dirty water +in.

Use of kitchen by them as an office +made cleaning difficult.

Weekend cleaning is necessary, doesn't appear to have been happening, +we did some cleaning on Sunday and/or Monday morning (kitchen, loos, loo seats +in particular).

Some emergency lights were completely blacked out, H&S violation

Staffing level seemed low in general, and several venue managers +resigned in the early weeks.

A fair amount of wall scarring from use of blue-tack

3.2. For next time, if there is one

Paper hand towels? We didn’t this time, worked OK? Probably some +use of loo roll for drying

Should we require use of our own consumables suppliers next time: fits +with ethos, fits our containers.

Start and end of day procedures – define/clarify, who’s responsible +for what. E.g. turning on the emergency lighting is our job.

Clarify who repairs things. We do a daily inspection and fix things/bill +for getting them fixed

In general if there are things we agree are are responsibility that we +are going to do for their benefit, we will have to charge +for that, not clear how e.g. lump sum vs. timesheet.

Leave less cutlery/plates etc. out for them

Ask for kitchen counters to be cleared away each night?

Clarify who is going to empty bin bags, get agreement on how does/polices triage (recyclable/food +waste/rubbish). Do we have to be responsible for all this so it can be done as +we would like?

We need to spend more time up front preparing the +building and flats. Should we do a complete set of photos? What is 'complete'?

Emergency lights can’t be completely covered, dimmed, e.g. with gel overlay, is +OK

We need a designated contact person, who is on site most of most days, for niggles (E.g. +shoes in the kitchen :-). If this changes, or is a shared task, continuity +needs to be ensured.

Better policing of companies wrt care of the building in general, e.g. blue-tack

3.3. General comments

One negative comment on the first Sunday about the meeting space, but +most feedback on that was positive.

In general Sundays went well. Mid-week Meeting also worked well, bar steps for Tony +Peach, Margaret Anderson and someone else with limited mobility.

As an ethical workplace, how do we feel about the way C Venues treats +their staff, both volunteer and paid?

4. Was it OK? Do this again (with C Venues or someone else)?

KL
More ‘unexpected work’ than +‘unpleasant’
EG
The annoying things could be sorted in the agreement, +including a process for things that are still unclear (e.g. the toilet leak)
MS
Niggles rather than disasters. Worth looking for alternatives, +e.g. Greenside, before committing to C Arts, bearing in mind that they would +have their teething problems

5. Miscellaneous

HST to get C Venue's (local) +network guy’s contact details from Hartley

KL to scan and +distribute missing/broken items list

HST to figure out how to +address the need for a regular MEK - MCMember meeting with a schedule that has +no full MEK overlap time in it.

Clarification wrt staff cover going forward: Ellie +is not happy about evening or Saturday working, and MEK are covering a +lot of evening/Saturday shifts in September.

Keith Gunn to go ahead with new cable +trays.

MS has renewed Giffgaff contract

Ian Wilson will be visiting about café +some time soon

HST to check the state of the T&C redo by +Trustees.

HST, with respect to the matter of listing 7 VT on meeting agency sites that charge a +premium, take this to MHMC for review/decision.

Table of Contents

1. Attendance

  • Present +  J. P. Ascher (via Zoom) (JP), Rachel Fitzgerald (RF), Katrina McCrea (KM), Jacqueline Noltingk (JN), Henry S. Thompson (HST)
  • Prevented +  Laragh +Quinney (LQ)

2. +Convenor’s report

Property matters

HST has asked JP to take on the property portfolio, primarily 3F2 in the first +instance. Changes in Trustee membership need to be updated to Clan Gordon, and +then HST will ask Trustees to nominate JP as contact point.

New Manager(s) appointment status

For the benefit of those not on the appointments panel (RF, KM, HST), HST gave a short recap of the events from the interviews onwards.

We discussed how we should respond to the email HST recently received +from Majk Stokes (MS): We need to apologise as a committee for the lack of +support from his line management, including ourselves.

We considered both the timing and the appropriate structure for a +response, and concluded that:

  • Attempting to provide detailed written responses was neither +possible nor appropriate
  • That a meeting, perhaps best thought of as a threshing meeting, with the appointments panel to address the questions +as best we could was the right first step, but would need time to prepare +carefully for
  • Only after such a meeting would a Meeting for Clearness to help MS +look forward be appropriate
  • The role of the Friends asked to help someone in a Meeting for +Clearness is to listen, and to ask questions, not to answer them
  • Esther Shreve was mentioned as a possible person from outside the +appointments process to invite to a Clearness meeting

3. Staffing

We AGREED to continue the salary and hours uplift for the +Meeting House contract staff (MS, +Ellie Giles and Ken Latham) through November, as the new Managers will not be in +post before the middle of the month, and thereafter the responsibility for helping them learn +their new roles will fall primarily on the contract staff. +
