Yapton and Ford Village Hall Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2022
The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2022.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document
The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes an unincorporated charity. Risk management
The trustees have a duty to identify and review risks to which the charity is exposed, and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.
CONSTITUTION, OBJECTS AND PRINCIPAL ACTIVITIES
The Charitable Trust is constituted by a Trust Deed conveyance dated 20 September 1988. The Charity was registered on 4 May 1993.
The charity's objects and principal activities, having due regard to the Trustees duty in Section 17(5) of the 2011 Charities Act concerning public benefit, during the year were as follows:-
-
To ensure the continued availability of the village hall for the members of the Yapton and Ford Community.
-
Letting the Village Hall to local users for community activities.
REVIEW OF ACTIVITIES
Much has changed over the last year of Covid-19 pandemic restrictions, but it appears we are over the worst of it.
Bookings are picking up, and thanks to the continued support of both Ford and Yapton Parish Councils, together with some unrestricted financial grants, we are financially stable without recourse to the reserve fund which has been built up over past years.
Income has not yet returned to pre-pandemic levels but we are pleased that nearly all of our regular clubs and hirers have returned.
Some of the regular clubs which cater to the older members of our local community have suffered a loss of members, but we are working with them to attract new members and maintain their viability.
I must thank my fellow Management Committee members for their unfailing support throughout the last year. Our aim is not only to preserve the hall but to improve it, for the benefit of the local community.

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2022
TRUSTEES RESPONSIBILITIES
The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards.
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales, the Charities Act 2011, Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed, requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity, and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
Select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
-
Observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP;
-
Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent
-
State whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and;
-
Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy the financial position of the charity and enable them to ascertain to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008, and the provisions of the Trust Deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity, and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
RESERVES POLICY
The trustees seek to retain sufficient general reserves that are deemed necessary to fund the on-going day-to-day operations of the charity. All monies received for designated or restricted purposes are shown in separate funds in the accounts.

Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees of Yapton and Ford Village Hall For the Year Ended 31 March 2022
I report on the accounts of the charity for the Year Ended 31 March 2022, which are set out on pages 4 to 10.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustee is responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustee considers that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to an audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act,
-
• to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145 (5)(b) of the 2011 Act, and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner’s statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention
-
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements:
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the
-
2011 Act
have not been met ; or
reached.
