## **Needingworth Village Hall Trust** 

## **Annual Report for the year ending 31[st] December 2022** 

**Charity Reg. No:  1047395** 

## **Trustees** 

**The Trustees who served during the year were:  Roy Fountain, Margaret Fountain, Neale Roberts, Noel Glass, Mark Hebert, Rose Killock, Michael Williamson, Adrian Dobbyne, David Clarke, Deke Jackson, Deborah Williams.** 

## **Organisation** 

Needingworth Village Hall Trust is a Registered Charity.  Reg no: 1047395. The Management Committee meet for business every month except in August and December unless there is urgent business. 

## **Objectives and Activities** 

The object of the Trust is to manage the Village Hall for the benefit of the residents of the village of Holywell-cum-Needingworth.  The Trustees lease the premises from Holywell-cum-Needingworth Parish Council, and are responsible for the maintenance and upkeep of the premises. 

## **Financial Review of the Year ended 31 December 2022** 

A surplus of £4465.78 is recorded for the year. 

The main source of income is from letting fees, which came to £17277.25 in 2022. This was up on the previous year by £5896.25. 

The annual music festival with the bar is our main fund-raising event.  We were able to hold this year’s Music Festival on 2 & 3 July 2022, which is the usual weekend for this event.  The net income from the festival was £8593.84. 

The annual quiz was held on 7 May 2022 and generated £439 towards our fundraising. 

We did not receive any Government funding in 2022. 

The non-regular expenditure was: 

£857 for a laptop, screen and printer for the office. £3420 for new flooring and refurbishment of the Pavilion, the smaller of the 2 rooms which we let to hirers. 

£2935 for the Electrical 5 Year Test Certification and modifications. 

We endeavour to employ local tradesmen and contractors for our requirements; painting, plumbing and electrical work being the major items. 



## **Debtors** 

Letting fees outstanding at 31[st] December 2022 were £2144.50. 

## **Creditors** 

## Electricity 

We changed our Electricity supplier to British Gas Lite in December this year.  We pay by direct debit each month on the actual electricity used.  The total cost this year was £5224, which is £407 less than last year’s costs.  We are expecting this to increase substantially in 2023.  Night storage radiators are used to heat the premises. 

On behalf of the Management Committee, we wish to thank Holywell-cumNeedingworth Parish Council for their continued support.
