MOIRA VILLAGE HALL
ANNUAL REPORT (continued)
Objectives and Activities
The Charity was established to facilitate the building of a new village hall and enhance the community life of the inhabitants of Moira by providing communal facilities.
The Hall is available for hire by any individual or organisation in accordance with the standard hiring agreement and scale of charges adopted for the year. It is intended that the scale of charges be sufficient to meet all expenditure incurred in running and maintaining the Hall. Ashby Woulds Town Council is responsible for insuring the Hall
Review of Progress and Achievements
Hall letting income for the year amounted to £7,851 showing a 81% decrease on the previous year. This large decrease was due to the impact of Covid 19 as the hall had to be shut down for long periods of time. After deducting expenses there was a surplus for the year of £2,794.
The Committee have continued their policy of maintaining the Hall to a high standard
Finances
The attached financial statements show the current state of the finances, which the Committee consider to be sound. At 31 March 2021 free reserves amounted to £29,139. This falls within the range agreed by the trustees.
Risk Review
The trustees have examined the major internal and external risks which the Charity faces and confirm that systems are being established to minimise these risks.

ANNUAL REPORT (continued)
Public Benefit
The trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity’s aims and objectives
Trustees’ Responsibilities in Relation to the Financial Statements
Law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the charity’s financial activities during the year and of its financial position at the end of the year. In preparing those financial statements, the Trustees are required to :
-
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
State whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue in business.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 1993. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF MOIRA VILLAGE HALL
I report on the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 March 2021 which are set out on pages 5 to 8
Respective Responsiblities of Trustees and Examiner
The Charity Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Charity Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 [the 1993 Act]) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
Examine the accounts (under section 43(3)(a) of the 1993 Act;
-
To follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners (under section 43(7)(b) of the 1993 Act; and
-
To state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of Independent Examiners Report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as Trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently, I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
Independent Examiner’s Statement
In connection with my examination no matter has come to my attention:
-
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material aspect the requirements to keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the 1993 Act and to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 1993 Act, have not been met, or
-
to which in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached
