Note: no external market valuation has been carried out **WEST BRADFORD VILLAGE HALL TREASURERS REPORT Year Ending 31st January 2025** ## **Cash / Bank** Bank and Cash balances at the end of the year equals £69,445 versus a bank balance at February 2024 of £69,081. The spend within year, more or less breaks even, on cash inflows and outflows. ## **Overview** ## The change since last year is mainly due to the following; 1. a drop in the amount of Grants we have received (decrease of £250). These are adhoc and we were fortunate to receive the majority of the grants via the Coronavirus scheme in previous years, which has now ended. Further grants are being pursued in the next financial year for projects such as the renovation outdoor extension works. As a committee, we are determined to utilise any grants on offer, to attract funding for the benefits of the community 2. an Increase in Hall Rental bookings (circa £4.5k). We currently have a wide range of regular booking hires such as community activities (Garden, Bridge, Luncheon, Pilates, Gym, Dementia, U3A groups etc) which have generated on average an income of £1,600 per month. Last year this was averaging £1,300 per month. Adhoc private hires take place (such as wedding events, christenings, birthday parties) and these have generated throughout the year a total of £10.5k (average of £875 per month). A new booking system is currently being pursued to ensure we can offer a quick and efficient booking experience and to understand better where our demand sits with booking requests. 3. Fund raising events is slightly lower than last year (from the accounts, it is also split over "Bar" and "Fundraising activities"). The committee have a volunteering bar team who have arranged extra events for the community such as the family pop up bar on a monthly basis. This has proven very successful from feedback received. The only additonal fundraiser that took place last year was the one off Coronation celebration. Other than that, the same events more or less took place this financial year 4. Bar takings on Private Party venues have dropped since previous years by circa £15k. We haven't had as many external hires particularly on weddings. Due to the new renovations and booking system coming into place, we aim to maximise and increase this rate for next years performance 5. A decrease in Hall costs of circa £6k due to savings made on Gas / electric / one off purchases. As per the summary table you can see the detailed commentary on this (mainly metre corrections) 6. A decrease of £12.6k on Repairs and Maintenance. The main ticket items for this is that last year, we did the tarmacking to the external areas, joinery to the first floor, replacement of carpets internally and improvements to plumbing & electrical appliances. This year we have started to renovate the internal and patio works, of which some of the remaining costs will fall into next financial year 7. A decrease of £20k on plant and equipment. This report shows a full breakdown for your information. Main items that we acquired last year, were the new zip wire equipment for the child's park area and a set of new hall dining chairs. This year we have acquired mainly sound installation equipment only (and other small value items) ## **Independent Examiner's report to the trustees of** ## **West Bradford Village Hall** ## **Year ended 31 January 2025** I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the above charity (“the Trust”) for the year ended 31 January 2025. ## **Responsibilities and Basis of report** As the charity trustees of the Trust, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”).
