Achievements and Performance

SORP reference
Summary of the main
achievements of the charity,
identifying the difference the
charity’s work has made to
the circumstances of its
beneficiaries and any wider
benefits to society as a
whole.		 Para 1.20 From February 2021 the Old School has
been used as a Covid Vaccination Centre
and this has continued through to date
(Nov 2022).
With the easing and subsequent removal
of government covid restrictions it was
possible to re-start use of the Old School
by local groups. All our previous regular
groups have re-started and a couple of
new ones have been added. Our rooms
are now pretty much fully booked.
Following covid, some groups now have
reduced numbers and use a smaller
room, for which we charge a lower price.
Overall, all our income is still sufficient
for the Trust to maintain and improve the
building. We are fortunate to have signed
fairly long fixed price contracts for gas &
electric on terms that predated the war in
Ukraine.

Financial Review

Financial Review
Review of the charity’s
financial position at the end
of the period		 Para 1.21 The charity is in a good financial position
at the end of the period. This is due to a
combination of government covid related
grants, and to the re-start of room hire to
our regular community groups.
Statement explaining the
policy for holding reserves
stating why they are held		 Para 1.22 The charity does not hold formal reserves
for specific purposes. However, we do
aim to keep sufficient funds available to
continue maintaining the building and
garden for up to 18 months without
income. We also keep the state of the
building under review and plan ahead for
items like boiler replacement and roof
repairs / maintenance.
Amount of reservesheld Para 1.22 £0
Reasons for holding zero
reserves		 Para 1.22 See above
Details of fund materially in
deficit		 Para 1.24 None
Explanation of any
uncertainties about the
charity continuing as a going
concern		 Para 1.23 At each Trustee Meeting we review a
“Going Concern” projection for one year
ahead. This shows in broad terms we are
breaking even on day-to-day operations
and our fund-raising activities provide for
building maintenance and improvements
to facilities.
