DERRY HILL AND STUDLEY VILLAGE HALL TRUST
TRUSTEES, REPORT F
R THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
The Trus*es present their report and accounts for the year ended 31 December 2024.
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accountin8 policies set out in note I to the accounts and
comply with the Deed of Trus¢ the Charities Att 201 l and the Statement of Recommended Practice"Accounting
and Reporting by Charities". effective January 2015.
Objective5 and activities
The objective of the Trux is to provide a village hall and recreation area for the use of the inhabitants of Derry
Hill. Studley and Sandy Lane. The trustees confimi that they have referred to the Charity Cornmis5ion's general
guidance on public benefit when reviewing aims and objectives, and in planning future aciiviiies.
Achievements and Performance
2024 has been. financially. a go¢￿ year for the Hall resulting in our highest income tn dats for income from
lettings. This mainly achieved from the doubling of casual lettings and with Rub A Dub extending their
opening hours to include the welcomed addition of after school artiviue& Having spent heavily on kntchen
improvements last year. together with excessive maintenance and repair cosL it was essential this year that these
costs were kept to a minimum.
This was achieved with muth reduced repair and maintenance costs to the e￿n¢ that the Hall's cash surplus for
the year was in the region of £ I 1.000. Such a surplus puts the Hall in a good position going into next year as we
starc to feel the full brunt of gas and electricity increase5 and the need to updats our hea¢ing systsm together
with other mairtenance tasks assoaated with the Hall's ageing condition. 2025 starts in a sound POSiEion and will
be a challenging year but lettings levels are likely to remain consistent so hopthlly the Hall can rise to any
challenge that might occur.
Finandal Rèview
The accompanying accounts reveal the income and expenditure relating to the running of the hall. The trustees
believe that the major risks to which the charity is exposed have been identified and that systems have been
established to miogaee those risks.
