Financial review
The Trust began 2024 in deficit. a situation which continues to be representative of Canterbury's
hospitality sector. Monthly repayments for the Covid "bounce-back" loan will continue until a final
repayment on 7 May 2030. The Trustees have assessed that the charity is a going concern and
confirm the basis for this assessment is due to the on-going regular income and strong committed
pipeline of income generated by regular bookings and large-scale events. civic and community as well
as business bookings from a wide range of clients.
The Trust opened an additional savings account at Lloyds bank to ensure reseNes are being built up
for financial resilience. The Trust has a formal Reserves Policy and aims to build a level of reserves
equivalent to three months of core operating costs. The main sources of income are from Westgate
Hall's hire fees, income from bar and food sales with grants only for ring-fenced projects, such as
upgrading the Hall's infrastructure and public facilities (for example, the Trust secured funding and
loans to upgrade the Hall's WC. and accessible WC facilities. fire doors and storage areas).
While 2024 began slowly in terms of general bookings, regulars. including Canterbury Academy,
Bemix, Salsa Asi, NHS Blood donations and Brachers Breakfast Networking continued to provide
consistent income. In addition. The Trust's Annual International Women's Day networking breakfast
celebrated its 7th year with a theme of Joy. Event bookings started to increase in March with a
fundraising event for a Canterbury business. a live music gig, Kent Law Society's festival fundraising
event, Westgate Hall Market, wrestling. the University of Kent's LGBQT+ Prom, and a Vaisakhi
Festival celebrating the founding of the Sikh Community.
Customer confidence started to improve from spring. however customers. reduced budgets meant that
a number of bookings did not convert, for example, wedding receptions were reduced in size or
cancelled.
As stated in our previous reports, in line with its mission, The Trust's works to ensure Westgate Hall
remains financially resilient and relevant for the local community and wider Kent area. To achieve this
the Trust has remained focussed on strategic. govemance. operational and staff ing obligations and
requirements.
Dedicated support from the Board's Trustee volunteers united with staff expertise and reliability are key
to ensuring the Westgate Hall's viability-
Marketing and Promotion of Westgate Hall is the core vehicle for ensuring financial sustainability for
the Trust. We aim to deliver:
Quarterly refreshing of Westgate Hall's website {with market analysis, marketing, communication
reviews etc) aimed at maintaining and reaching new markets, customers, collaborators and driving
sales.
Annual review of Trust policies, the Hall's fees for hire and booking contracts.

flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. The following specific policies are
applied to particular categories of income:
income from donations or grants is recognised when there is evidence of entitlemenl to the
gift, receipt is probable and its amount can be measured reliably.
legacy income is recognised when receipt is probable and entitlement is established.
income from donated goods is measured at the fair value of the goods unless this is
impractical to measure reliably, in which case the value is derived from the cost to the donor
or the estimated resale value. Donated facilities and seNices are recognised in the accounts
when received if the value can be reliably measured. No amounts are included for the
contribution of general volunteers.
income from contracts for the supply of seNices is recognised with the delivery of the
contracted service. This is classified as unrestricted funds unless there is a contractual
requirement for it to be spent on a particular purpose and returned if unspent, in which case
it may be regarded as restricted.

Tangible assets (contiTnued)
An increase in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of a revaluation, is recognised in other
recognised gains and losses, unless it reverses a charge for impairment that has previously been
recognised as expenditure within the statement of financial activities. A decrease in the carrying
amount of an asset as a result of revaluation, is recognised in other recognised gains and losses,
except to which it offsets any previous revaluation gain, in which case the loss is shown within
other recognised gains and losses on the statement of financial activities.
Depreciation
Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual
value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows=
Land and buildings
Equipment
50/0 reducing balance
20 /0 Straight line
Impairment of fixed assets
A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable
amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the
recoverable amounl, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for
possible reversal at each reporting date.
Stocks
Stocks are measured at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and
sell. Cost includes all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing
the stock to its present location and condition.
Government grants
Government grants are recognised at the fair value of the asset received or receivable. Grants
are not recognised until there is reasonable assurance that the charity will comply with the
conditions attaching to them and the grants will be received.
Where the grant does not impose specified future performance-related conditions on the
recipient, it is recognised in income when the grant proceeds are received or receivable. Where
the grant does impose specified future performance-related conditions on the recipient, it is
recognised in income only when the performance-related conditions have been met. Where
grants received are prior to satisfying the revenue recognition criteria, they are recognised as a
liability.
