## **TRUSTEES' ANNUAL REPORT**
## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021**
## **CHARITY REGISTRATION NUMBER 1003707**
**The charity’s principal address is: Glastonbury Town Council, Town Hall, Madgalene Street, Glastonbury, BA6 9EL**
## **Names of the charity trustees:**
Lokabandhu Serena Roney-Dougal Jonathan Francis Cousins Nicholas James Cottle
## **Structure, governance and management**
The charity is constituted as a Registered Charity in the UK.
The governing document, memorandum, and articles of association were incorporated in 1991. The trustees are the four Town Councillors who represent St. Edmund’s Ward in Glastonbury.
## **Objectives and activities**
Charitable objects – for the purposes of a Community Hall for the use of the inhabitants of St. Edmund’s Ward, Glastonbury, in the County of Somerset – without distinction of political, religious, or other opinions – including use for meetings, lectures, and classes, and for other forms of recreation and leisure-time occupation, with the object of improving the conditions of life for the said inhabitants.
The activities of the charity continue to be the governance and management of St. Edmund’s Ward Community Hall in Glastonbury for the benefit of the community. This continued throughout 2021, although at a reduced level due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic and associated social restrictions.
Administration and maintenance of the Hall is carried out by Glastonbury Town Council’s staff, for which Glastonbury Town Council is reimbursed.
## **Achievement and performance**
During the 2020-21 financial year the charity was fortunate to receive a one-off grant of £50,000 – part of the Glastonbury Town Deal Accelerator Fund, enabling the successful renovation of the Hall, including the fitting of a catering kitchen, improvements to the garden, and installation of a much-needed barrier at the entrance to the car park to prevent access by high sided vehicles. This expenditure is reflected in these accounts.
The charity also received a one-off £10,000 Covid-19 Small Business Grant Fund grant, which helped to compensate for loss of rental income during this period. In addition, the charity also received a grant from Glastonbury Town Council.
Expenditure was made up of bills, maintenance, and administration costs, plus expenditure on the renovation of the Hall.
The charity’s banking is carried out with Santander and records are kept at the Glastonbury Town Hall.

## **Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of St Edmunds Ward Community Hall**
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of St Edmunds Ward Community Hall for the year ended 31 March 2021.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity trustees of the charity you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
## **Independent examiner’s statement**
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
