## **Harkstead Village Hall Financial Year-end Report – 31[st] March 2022** 

## **(Reg. Charity 1157106)** 

Summary: 

Activity-related income to the hall was curtailed this year due to the continuing impact of Covid-19. The biannual auctions were not run but the Farmers’ Markets recommenced in May and continued monthly thereafter. No further Government Covid-19 grants were received. 

Electricity consumption continued to be the greatest cost. Usage returned almost to the “pre-pandemic” level. Cost has followed pro rata due to a fixed-price electricity contract covering this period. 

Maintenance expenses were approximately double last year’s, due to three significant expenditures: 

||£918|Plumbing repairs|
|---|---|---|
||£565|Plants for the front-of-hall planting|
||scheme|& irrigation hose|
||£540|Replacement water boiler (urn) for|
||kitchen||



Significant routine expenditures this year were:- 

 £744 Hall Insurance  £539 Hall cleaner’s wages. 

In summary, the village hall’s financial health has reduced, with expenditure exceeding income by £1,873 (39%). However, we have not had any Feed-in tariff (FIT) payments since May 2021 and I estimate that approximately £1,000 is owed, which would reduce the cash-flow shortfall to £873 (18% of income). The missing FIT payments has been followed up with SSE and the outstanding payment is expected soon. 

Annual Income & Expenditure Breakdown: 

We have three main sources of income:- 

- Hire of the hall 

- Events staged by the village hall 

- Solar panel feed-in-tariff 

During the 2021/22 financial year the income from hall hires increased greatly from last year (£857) to £3,175, which is more 



than the pre-pandemic income which averaged around £2,500. However, this was offset by not running the spring and autumn auctions, which previously earned around £1,000.

Financial position at 31[st] March: 

Current Account: £4,272 

Cash: £516 

Reserves: 

We hold approximately £55,000 in reserve. This is around 20% up on the previous year-end due to the addition of £5,000 of our COVID-19 grants into our Investment Fund and due to good investment returns. This reserve is split with approximately £7,000 on deposit and £48,000 invested in an ethical unit trust fund. The trustees consider these funds to be in line with the age and condition of the hall and adequate to meet unexpected costs.
