Section C Objectives and activities
| Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit) |
The charity’s Objects are for the benefit of the inhabitants of Melbourn and the surrounding area by providing and assisting in the provision of facilities for the recreation and other leisure time occupation of the said inhabitants in the interests of social welfare and with the objective of improving their conditions of life. |
|---|---|
| The trustees manage and operate the All Saints Community Hall for the benefit of all residents living or working in or around Melbourn. This is achieved by providing and maintaining a Community Hall that is offered to the public to hire, using the space and facilities available for leisure time and community activities. The trustees are all volunteers and do not receive remuneration or benefit for the time that they apply to the running of the hall. There are no employees and any requirement for a specialist trade is met (so far as is reasonable) by using local contractors, suppliers or other competent volunteers. The use of the hall incurs costs for rent, rates, insurance, water, electricity and gas as well as cleaning, redecoration, repairs, replacements and other general maintenance operations. These costs are met in part by a hire charge made for all community led activities and partly by fund raising events organised by a trustee sub-committee. The fund raising income is primarily assigned to identified improvement projects with the hire charges covering the costs associated with the actual use of the hall by the community. Hire rates are structured to favour local and regular users and for those who make payment in advance of hire. Special consideration is given to youth groups and other charitable organisations to keep the costs as low as possible. |

Section D Achievements and performance
Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year
Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the Trustees took the decision to close the hall on 23.03.20. The hall remained closed whilst we followed the guidance from the Government and ACRE closely. We only re-opened when we felt it was safe and the correct amount of sanitiser stations and signage was in place.
We offered the hall to the NHS to be used as a vaccine centre, but the offer wasn’t taken up due to more suitable venue being available in a local town.
Whilst the hall was closed the trustees took it in turns to check the hall on a daily basis to ensure everything was still in working order. Hire Rates are determined from the likely future use and cost of provision based on the previous year results adjusted to account for likely price increases. The hire rates are approved by the committee in April of each year for application from the beginning of the following May. Although running costs are likely to rise in the coming year, it is anticipated that the CIO will be able to absorb the price increases.
Fund Raising • All fund raising ceased during lockdown Donations received • No donations were received during lockdown Improvement Projects completed in 2020/21: • Hand sanitiser stations were installed throughout the hall Future Projects under consideration or in progress: • Update the CCTV to enable remote viewing • Install low level buffers in the car park alongside the fence • Keyless entry to the hall
Section E Financial review Brief statement of the ASCH aims to maintain as a minimum the equivalent of 3 months of charity’s policy on reserves average revenue income as an emergency fund that will provide cash for unexpected costs and charges.
