PRESTON (RUTLAND) VILLAGE HALL – CHARITY NUMBER 1117903 TRUSTEES’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023
Rental income of £3838 was below the previous year’s £4589, because the refurb activities reduced availability of the hall for rent.
We are operating the newly-formed Film Club’s account as separate line items of receipts and expenditure.
We received a grant of £35000 for defined refurbishment works and were required by HMRC to make a Contributing Third Party (CTP) payment of £3907 (about 11% of the grant) to the grant authority, Grantscape.
The main areas of overhead expenditure continued to be cleaning, electricity, insurance and water charges. We also spent £3448 on hall repairs, maintenance and purchases, similar to the previous year’s £3578. Most of the expenditure, £2987 is non-recurring for smoke alarm, additional light switches and lights, wall heaters, DVD player, kitchen glassware, pictures and picture-hanging kit. We paid £324 for hedge cutting.
The main areas of expenditure were refurbishment of the hall, £35000, matching exactly the grant received, and kitchen, £10525, funded from reserves built from government covid relief grants totalling £31700 over 3 years, 2020 to 2022.
Overall, the hall had a deficit of £17531 for the year, accounted for by the kitchen, £10525; repairs, maintenance and purchases, £3448; and CTP payment, £3907, totalling £17880.
At 31 December 2023, cash balances in the bank amounted to £22522 (2022 £40051).
