A year like no other, we have had the centre closed for the best part of the year, with a brief opening after lockdown one and then into lockdown two and really not opening again until April/May of 2021. We have been lucky enough to secure some grants from the Government to help us survive the lockdowns and the hall not being hired, thus generating little revenue across the year.
Our Vendors in our car park have still been trading and this has generated some revenue for us to again help us survive. We took the decision to raise the pitch fees within this year with met very little opposition to the increase, this will help generate much needed funds to invest into the facilities ongoing.
We have plans to invest the money that we have gained from grants and revenue generated across the year into some specific projects. These are lighting for the MUGA, redecorate the hall internally, convert a meeting room into a professional room to hire for business meetings with screen, projector, power points for laptops and Wi-Fi, replace the fire doors as they are now becoming a security issue on a regular basis.
We have had most of our hirers return to us, when they were able to and the revenue being generated is now placing the trust in strong position month on month, covering our outgoings.
Across the year we have taken out of service the rain water harvester that serves the hall, a couple of reasons for this, the benefit to the hall is negligible as the little water is used, also the maintenance of the harvester is beyond the savings if any, it was designed to give to the facilities. All these decisions have been made with visits from the company that fitted the system originally. We have invested in the bandstand being repaired again due to suffering extensive vandalism, something that will be monitored to understand the benefit against the cost of repairs. We have also taken the opportunity to have local trades in to assess the boiler system in the hall to understand the life of it and whether to replace or repair as it gets older. We have had the alarm system serviced and fire alarm system serviced with recommendations received, to be followed up. All fire extinguishers have been serviced and replaced where required, having a fire extinguisher placed into the pavilion which didn’t have one originally.
Across the year we have had several vandalism incidents, which is a cost that as a trust is frustrating and something that we try and manage and repair to try and prevent the same issue happening in the future. We have invested in a third shipping container which can be found at the back of the hall, as we we have discovered that storage space is a constant challenge, with our main meeting room being used for storage, when we could be generating revenue through hiring it. Now one of our hirers is using the shipping container for their equipment and we are adapting this meeting room into the space mentioned above.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all the trustees for all their hard work across this very challenging year. I know it is personal for us and I know that we all do more than is expected, which is appreciated by us as a group and the wider community.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS / TRUSTEES OF THE FLITCH GREEN CHARITABLE INCORPORATED ORGANISATION for the year ending 31[st] May 2021
I report on the receipts and payments accounts for the year ending 31[st] May 2021.
Respective responsibilities of Trustees and Independent Examiner
The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 (2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
-
follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners section 145 (5) (b) of the 2011 Act; and
-
state whether particular matters have come to my attention;
Basis of Independent Examiner’s Statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes the review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the management committee concerning such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required by a full audit and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the accounts.
Independent Examiner’s Statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with s130 of the 2011 Act; or
-
to prepare accounts which accord with these accounting records to enable proper understanding of the account;
have not been met; or
- to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
