At year end our bank balances had improved by approximately £1,000. We had an overall deficit of over
£6,7CK). This allows for depreciation of assets and increases in value of some fixed assets Our income is
increased compared to last year but is still not at pre-COVID levels. Our expenses have increased slightly,
largely due to increased Spending on Repairs & Maintenance. Our bank balances are reflecting some of
these features, but as the balances were not all reconciled on the 31" March, and the value of property is
not realised until the property is sold, the bank balances do not necessarity reflect the accounts at this
stage.
Overview of the year in ternis of income:
Hall Hire and cla55es provided an income of nearly £12.000. The increased use of the hall facilitie5
for camping has also increased the income.
Sport income continues to be slow to recover.
The Bar income continues to show an upward trend.
Expenditure:
Expenditure for the year stands at over £42,500, which is an increase of about £5,5￿) compared to the last
2 years. About £1,000 is increased bar expenditure. which is more than offset by their increased profits.
£3,000 increase in grounds maintenance costs and £2,0￿ increase in repairs and Maintenan￿ costs and
$1,500 increases in Rates and water account a substantial part of the increase. Reductions in the
expenditure on the playground offset some of the increases elsewhere.
Therefore, the total income for the year was £36,721 and total expenditure £42.520 leaving deficit of just
under £6,OCKI forthe year, excluding depreciation.
From the balance sheet, we have fixed assets of £510,410 current assets of £22,032. Our current assets
have fallen by nearly £20,000 over the past few years due to the investment in the hall infrastructure and
falling income from lettings

Dear Mr. New,
As requested I have carried out an independent audit of the books of the account for
the Year Ending March 31, 2024.
l am happy that the profrt and loss account for the year end represents and accurate
picture of transactions during that time.
I would make the following comments regarding the balance sheet:
The value of the fixed assets have been amended to take into account the work done
to improve the assets over the past few years. The Boules Piste is still not included so
check that this is not now an asset for the Village Hall.
Yours sincerely
Mike Cryst
