REPORTS AND ACCOUNTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
BOXLEY CHURCH HALL CHARITY
TREASURER’S REVIEW OF THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
Financial Review
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the Church Accounting Regulations 2006, using the Receipts and Payments basis.
Bank balances, including CBF Deposit Funds totalled £20,702 at 31 December 2024 (31 December 2023 - £75,986) (page 2). The decrease arises from using £58,000 from the CBF Deposit Fund towards £70,000 paid for the freehold of land to the north of the church, which is registered to the Custodian Trustee, Canterbury Diocesan Board of Finance, and held by it on behalf of the charity. The remaining £12,000 was funded from the current account.
Receipts of investment income and interest remained similar (2024 - £28,982, 2023 - £28,599). There were professional fees of £7,198, primarily in relation to the purchase of the land (2023 £6,216) and costs of £7,068 for fencing the boundary in part and road works. The land has been purchased to provide some security for parking cars, subject to planning permission, in the future, there being very limited availability within the village leaving the church reliant on the goodwill of the owners of Boxley House to allow the use of its drive for services and events.
The Missioner (2024 - £0, 2023 - £9,138), who was employed by the Diocese and funded in part by the charity, retired in September 2023 after a planned fixed term of six years and there is no plan to replace him.
The increase in the Investments valuation is due to the revaluation of the shares which have done well in 2024 (31 December 2024 - £996,266 & 31 December 2023 - £973,973) (page 3).
This review should be read in conjunction with the Financial Review and Reserves Policy contained within the Annual Report.
