The Directors present the annual report together with the financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2021. Directors of the Company are directors for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006 and also Charity Trustees for the purposes of section 177 of the Charities Act 2011. 

## **Structure, governance, management** 

**Type of governing document** Articles of Association 

**How the charity is constituted** Company limited by guarantee 

**Trustee selection method** Elected by members and co-option 

## **Objectives and activities** 

The charitable purposes of the Company are the provision and maintenance of a village hall for the use of the inhabitants of Woodbury, Devon and the surrounding area (“the area of benefit”) without distinction of political, religious or other opinions. 

## **Main activities under taken for public benefit** 

The hall is available for (a) Meetings, lectures and classes, and (b) Other forms of recreation and leisuretime occupation, with the object of improving the conditions of life for the inhabitants in the area of benefit. The above purposes are the Company’s charitable purposes for the purposes of the Charities 



Act 2011. For as long as the company is a registered charity, its purposes may only be altered with the prior consent of the Charity Commission and in accordance with any conditions attached to such consent. 

## **Structure, Governance and Management** 

The Charity was established under a Declaration of Trust dated 28 November 2013 as an unincorporated association and was registered with the Charities Commission on 8 January 2014. The Charity is managed by the Board of Directors. There must be at least 3 Directors. One third or, if not a multiple of 3, the nearest to one third must retire from office annually in rotation. In selecting individuals for appointment as directors/Trustees, the Directors must have regard to the skills, knowledge and experience needed for the effective administration of the Charity. All Directors give their time freely and no remuneration or expenses were paid in the year. The day to day running and administration of the charity is undertaken jointly by the Directors. 

## **Public Benefit Statement** 

The Directors confirm that they have complied with their duty to have due regard to the guidance on public benefit published by the Charities Commission. The Directors are confident that the aims and objectives of the Charity as set out in the Mission Statement above deliver a clear public benefit to the community. 

## **Main achievements in 2021** 

After a year of enforced closure due to Covid 19 in 2020, it was hoped that the hall would be back to full operation but this did not occur until May 2021. There was a good response from hall users and bookings for the main hall reached 70% occupancy in the autumn. During the closure period there was an opportunity to decorate the main hall, upgrade our fire security systems, replace a defective fire door and improve the lighting both internally and externally. A leaking roof was repaired and all notice boards were refurbished. 

## **Financial review** 

There was an increase in rental income to £15000, back to 50% of pre Covid l income, however government grants of £16097 and a Parish Council grant of £1500 ensured we could balance expenditure.  General expenditure of £16562 and planned extra expenditure of £17775 ensured an overall excess of £26 

The Directors wish to use the annual income to improve the hall for the benefit of the whole community, thus reserves are limited to sufficient to cover foreseeable problems estimated at £12000

Mr. Pat Browne  (Treasurer Woodbury Village Hall) 10/01/2022
