Achievements and Performance SORP reference Summary of the main achievements of the charity, idenlifying the difference the charity's work has made to Ihe circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits lo society as a whole. The hall was able to reopen in the latter part of Ihe year and. following all appropriate guidance, was able to offer a space for groups and classes to be offered to the community again. albeit with reduced numbers. Para 1.20 An agreement was reached for the annex to the hall to be reopened as a café, having previously been occupied by a CIC. This was an important hub for members of the village lo gather and the reopening has been very positive news. Generally the Trust is in a positive position financially. Despite the loss of bookings for much of 2020121 our financ8s are quite healthy thanks lo Govemment and Local Authority grants. This is due largely to a trustee Gompleling these grant applicats'ons which ware made available to us. The Trust has worked closely with the Parish Council for benefit of the community and has been very grateful to the Parish Council for continued practical and financial 5UPPOrt.

Other The Victory Hall accounts were examined by Mrs Jane Warner in late April 2021. The accounts were prepared under the receipts and payment method so only transactions that had cleared the bank were accounted for. The èxamination at year end confirmed the cash balances agreed to those declared. and that income and expenditure added up to the amount of profiuloss verified back to source documents. One overpaid hall hire charge was noted on the accounts. (Note 4) The Victory Hall upgraded its QuickBooks Soare after the year end. Concern was raised in Ihe autumn of 2021 that YE2021 expenditure looked to be overstated by £947.20, as eight items appeared to have been entered iwice, first as an invoic8 With payment through the bank, and then again as an expense from the bank. In the light of these cOnrnS (potentially due to the QuickBooks upgrade) the accounts have been annotated to reflect the potenlial overstatement of expenses and the Trustees undertake to resolve this issue within the current financial year ending 31. March 2022 and to report the outcome at the next AGM.
