## **Higher Denham Community CIOI; Annual Report 2020.** The onset of Covid, with the resultant banning of all group gatherings from March, had a dramatic effect on the activities of Higher Denham Community. After the first two months of the year, neither the community hall nor the sports field owned by the community were used leading to a major reduction in income by 66%. Conversely, while some limited savings on the expenses of running the hall and field were made, most of the running costs could not be avoided so expenditure remained at 90% of that seen in a normal year. A government grant, administered by the County Council, of £10000, for which we are most grateful, prevented the organisation from making a significant loss on the year that would have had a considerable negative impact on the charity’s reserves. The range of community activities facilitated by Higher Denham Community CIO continued during the first two months of the year but thereafter essentially ceased and only now, late in 2021, are they beginning to return to former levels.

My examination included consideration of unusual items and disclosures in the records and profit and loss account and balance sheet, and seeking explanations from the Treasurer in respert of matters that required further detail. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required In an audit and, consequently, no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a.true and fair view.. and this report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. In connection with my examination, no material matter has come to my attention, or been left unresolved, which would lead me to believe that the requirements underthe Chartties Art to keep proper accounting record5 and prepare accounts from those record5. have not been met. nor in my opinlon are there matters to which attention should be drawn in order to provide a proper understsnding of the accounts. to be reached.
