The object of the Charity is to apply the funds of the Charity towards the maintenance and management of the Hall as a recreational, educational and community facility for the use and benefit of the residents of the Parish of Blackmore, Hook End and Wyatts Green and the Parish of Stondon Massey and such other persons as the Trustees shall think fit.
The Trustees manage the hall through a Management Committee that meets quarterly. The hall is hired out to local clubs and groups. The Management Committee ensures that the building is maintained to a high standard and that it is kept in a clean and serviceable state.
**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)**
It encourages the creation of recreational and sporting activities. The premises are in almost continual use throughout the week, with an OFSTED approved Pre-School meeting every morning in term time. Other activities include Carpet bowls, Keep Fit, Senior Citizens Club, Slimming organisations, Karate, a choir, a youth dance group, Table Tennis, Yoga, Croquet and several badminton groups. The weekends are available for Anniversary parties, weddings, children’s parties, quizzes and similar activities and the Committee Room is hired on an occasional basis for meetings by art and other groups.
A caretaker is employed to ensure the building is properly maintained and supervised.
The Trustees have studied the guidance issued by the Charity Commission with regard to public benefit and understand that these apply at any time when exercising powers or duties to which the guidance would be relevant.

## Section D Achievements and performance
**Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year**
2021 started with the hall closed due to Covid restrictions, other than for the regular Pre-School booking. This situation continued until April when ~~some r~~ estrictions were gradually lifted and regular groups slowly ~~gradually started to return.~~ returned.
The 2021 budgets had been set on the assumption that restrictions would remain in place for the first six months of the year. However, although hirers were slow to return, hall hire income finished the year at £22,656, some £8,000 more than in 2020 but still down on the 2019 figure.
Bookings are now back to pre-pandemic levels.
The hall again received grants from Government under the Retail, Hospitality and Leisure scheme ~~category~~ and the caretaker remained furloughed whilst the hall was closed.
Costs continued to be closely monitored and controlled.
