Trust 

Trustee selection methods (eg. appointed by, elected by) 

By election at the AGM, or in the case of a casual vacancy, co-option by the Management Committee; by nomination of representatives of village organisations listed in the constitution. 

## **Additional governance issues (Optional information)** 

You **may choose** to include additional information, where relevant, about: 

- policies and procedures adopted for the induction and training of trustees; 

- the charity’s organisational structure and any wider network with which the charity works; 

- relationship with any related parties; 

- trustees’ consideration of major risks and the system and procedures to manage them. 

New trustees participate in an induction session, focused particularly on the role and responsibilities of trustees, the constitution, conflicts of interest/loyalty and financial management. 

As a small charity Colton Village Hall guards against risks by the maintenance of a reserve fund (see section E) and the purchase of trustee liability insurance to the value of £100,000. 

## **Section C                    Objectives and activities** 

## **Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document** 

The provision and maintenance of a village hall for the use of the inhabitants of the Parish of Colton, including use for meetings, lectures, classes, and other forms of recreation and leisuretime occupation. 

## **Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)** 

During the year the main activity undertaken, apart from fully reopening the hall post COVID, was the complete relaying of the car park at a cost of £24,000. Knowing that no grants would be available to fund he work, the Trustees had accumulated a reserve over the previous years to meet the full cost. 

The Children’s Playground has remained open throughout the period with all issues raised by the annual inspection having been satisfactorily addressed. 

The nature reserve on Village Hall land continues to improve and develop and is greatly appreciated by residents and visitors alike. 

The trustees confirm that they have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit. 

## **Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)** 

You **may choose** to include further statements, where relevant, about: 

- policy on grantmaking; 

March **2012** 

**TAR** 

8 



- policy programme related investment; 

- contribution made by  volunteers. 

Our constitution is predicated on the assumption that all village organisations will provide a representative member to the Trustee body. Despite the fact that most village organisations are regular users of the hall at favourable rates, it remains increasingly difficult to persuade them to provide trustees. It is equally difficult to persuade residents to stand for election as a trustee. 

## Section D                      Achievements and performance 

March **2012** 

**TAR** 

9 



Section D                      Achievements and performance 

**Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** 

The Colton Village Hall remains in a sound financial and physical state post COVID despite the very significant cost of relaying the car park. 

## **Section E                    Financial review** 

March **2012** 

**TAR** 

10 



1. We have a contingency reserve of £4000. 

## **Brief statement of the charity’s policy on reserves** 

2. A significant balance remains in the current account which will fund the cost of replacing the floodlighting in the car park which has largely failed. 

3. We are making provision to cover replacement and repair of playground equipment, currently standing at around £6300 

**Details of any funds materially in deficit** 

None 

## **Further financial review details (Optional information)** 

You **may choose** to include additional information, where relevant about: 

- the charity’s principal sources of funds (including any fundraising); 

Funds are raised through: 

   1. Fund-raising events organised by the Management Committee; 

   2. Hire charges to village organisations 

   3. Hire charges to private individuals, whether living inside the Parish or outside, and to organisations based outside the Parish. 

   4. Grants for large items of capital expenditure, 

- how expenditure has supported the key objectives of the charity; 

- investment policy and objectives including any ethical investment policy adopted.

## **The trustees declare that they have approved the trustees’ report above.**
