TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT Period start date From: Period end date 1st April 2024 31" March 2025 Charity name: The Joseph Stone Educational and Village Hall Charity Charity registration number: 1104060 Objectives and Activities The objects of the Charity are to promote the benefit of the inhabitants of Mosborough in the City of Sheffield by bringing together statutory, voluntary and other organisations and inhabitants in a common effort to advance the education of those inhabitants who are beyond compulsory school age and to provide facilities in the interests of social welfare and for recreation and leisure time. ultimately to improve the conditions of the life of the inhabitant5. The Charity seeks to meet its objectives through the provision of a suitable village hall, which encompasses the necessary facilities to meet the broadest needs of the inhabitants of the community which it serves. Although the main focus of the charity is the provision of the village hall it does provide other facilities, for example, four defibrillators around the village, benches in key spots and it also provides financial assistance to other organisations that can demonstrate a need for support. Furthermore, the Charity aims to provide bursaries to support individuals & groups operating within the local area. Achievements and Performance The Charity has achieved the objectives in so far as its facilities are being used by a broad variety of user groups that return to the hall on a frequent basis. The hall provides its user groups with a well-maintained facility where groups can commit with certainty to the long-term provision of such a facility. To enhance the provision for disabled persons, we have installed a 2m wide escape ramp from the main hall into the car park. Additionally, we have installed handrails around the pathways leading from the entrance gate to the main door.
Security has also been improved by the provision of CCTV cameras covering most sides of the building. Provision of auto door closure devices linked to the fire alarm system has enhanced our fire security. In respect of the award of bursaries, the Charity continues to build link5 with both local schools, sports clubs and other appropriate institutions and has donated £800. We were very pleased to be able to support our local food bank not only by acting as a donation hub but also by a cash donation at Christmas. Financial Review It is noted that this charity, the Joseph Stone Educational and Village Hall Charity, is intimately associated with the Joseph Stone Educational Foundation Charity, and funds are freely exchanged between the two for the good of the whole. The rental income for the hall has increased from £35,259 for 2024 to £43,032 for the year to March 2025. Planned continued upgrading of the centre saw the charity make a moderate loss of £2,360. The Charity and Trustees seek to minimise financial risk to the reserves of the Charity and all reserves are maintained as cash or investments with a reputable bank or investment fund. Our operational costs in relation to the village hall this year, were slightly higher due to some one-off planned expenditures: indoor bowlin8 mats & electric storage machines, repairs to the main entrance door & repairs to the roof. The Charity considers that it has adequate reserves to meet both normal on-going costs and any further exceptional costs of a capital nature that might arise. Structure, Governance and Management The Charity is a registered charity with a registered Company of the same name, which ha5 a registered number of 05119395. The Charity is governed by a Trust Deed. Trustees are appointed as vacancies arise and they receive no remuneration for the services they provide to the Charity.
