Trustee’s Annual Report
Objectives
To further or benefit the residents of Barley Mow and the surrounding areas of Tyne & Wear and County Durham (“The area of Benefit”), without distinction of sex, sexual orientation, race, political, religious or other opinions by associating together the said residents and the local authorities, voluntary and other organisations in a common effort dto advance education and to provide facilities in the interests of social welfare for recreation and leisure time occupation with the objective of improving the conditions of life for the residents.
In furtherance of the objects but not otherwise, the Trustees shall have power:
-
To establish or secure the establishment of a Community Centre, and
-
To maintain or manage or co-operate with any statutory authority in the maintenance and management of such a Centre for activities promoted by the Charity in furtherance of its objects.
Achievements
Barley Mow Village Hall C.I.O is in a strong position and has survived the many challenges it has faced during the Covid restrictions. Since the start of the pandemic we have been fortunate in keeping our financial situation healthy due to grants and support from room hire generated from users exempt from government restrictions. Our salaried staff of 2 were placed on furlough and our volunteers proved to be a huge asset in keeping the hall functioning. We were pleased to be able to accommodate NHS Blood Donors on many occasions allowing them to continue their valuable work. Additionally due to previous grant aid we also took advantage of the closure to undertake a number of maintenance and improvement projects including an overhaul of the heating system, a refurbishment of the hall floor and also the replacement of all lighting in the Hall and common areas with LED lighting, the latter proving a great saving in our general overheads. We are now welcoming back all of our groups as well as new clients and are in the process of planning new events which will be beneficial to the wider community. We are working to minimise our running costs where possible to safeguard against covid restrictions in the future or any other challenges we may face. The previous management committee was dissolved and the new management committee is now in place with a new chairperson. Mr Andrew Brown Searle.
Public Benefit Statement
The trustees have considered the guidance produced by the Charity Commission on the provision of public benefit and they confirm that public benefit has been provided by the range of activities as described above.
Financial Review
The financial position for the year shows net incoming funds of £86,171 and total outgoing resources of £63,253 with funds brought forward from last year of 29,178 the total funds carried forward are £52,096.
Risk Management:
The Trustees are examining the major risks, which the charity faces in relation to external factors, governance and management, internal operations and business. They are considering the likelihood and the impact of risks and are reviewing what systems should be in place to control and reduce those risks. The systems are being designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance against material loss or misstatement of loss.

Reserves Policy
It is the policy of the charity to try to build up unrestricted funds, which are free reserves of the charity, to a level that equates to approximately 6 months unrestricted expenditure. This will provide sufficient funds to cover management and administration support costs and any emergencies that may arise from time to time.
Trustees’ Responsibilities
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and financial statements in accordance with applicable Charity Law and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
Charity Law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which show a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and its financial activities for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
-
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
Comply with applicable accounting standards, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operational existence.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

Independent Examiners Report
Report to the trustees of Barley Mow Village Hall CIO on Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2021 set out on pages 7 to 11
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. The charity's gross income does not exceed £250,000.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a 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 you as trustees concerning any such matters. 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 the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities have not been met; or
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
