## Report of the trustees for the year ending
## 31st March 2021
The Trustees are pleased to prepare their report for the above financial year.
This year was more of a challenge than the previous 12 months for the Graveney & Goodnestone Village Hall Charity. With Covid 19 restrictions being applied from March 2020 it was impossible to maintain the hall for hire with-in the guidelines set out by the Government and our Insurers. The hall was therefore closed for all hirings and therefore the loss of all associated income.
Only through Government funding and a grant from a local trust has the Graveney & Goodnestone Village Hall Charity been able to remain in operation. These monies have been put to good use with the modernization to play equipment plus the purchase of new.
The high level of the monies raised (the view of the charity) from Grants it was necessary to engage the paid services of Mr A.Dixon to carry out a financial review in accordance with HMRC guidelines of the Charities accounts and these are attached as separate files with in the annual return.
The trustees continue to manage the financial dealings of the Charity with the utmost care and diligence. In doing so and with careful management the Trustees are
able to keep the village hall as a safe and enjoyable place for all those wishing to use it.
## Financial Position
Though the bank account shows a healthy position these funds are all allocated for their intended purposes. And part of this is to hold some funds in reserve to provide security for the financial survival of the charity for at least the next two years with regards to paying energy bills and insurances.
## The next 12 months.
It is hoped to encourage more people to become trustees as at present there are only two plus one volunteer which makes the workload too great.
The trustees would like to revamp the 1950’s out-ofdate toilet facilities along with carrying out repairs to the building fabric. Early estimates of cost’s are in the region of £12K, and therefore further grant funding will need to be explored.
New ROSPA approved fencing is planned to enclose the children’s play area but costing in the region £15K needs to be planned very carefully.
## Conclusion
Though covid has had a devastating effect on the village hall with the continued support of the Government, Trustees, and one volunteer the hall has survived another difficult year, and hopefully looks forward to a brighter future?
Thank you
Colin RELF

## **Independent examiner's statement**
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
- the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or
- the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or
- the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
