Income
Income levels are considerably higher than last year, and this is attributable to much higher bar and events income during the year. The monthly village socials continue to be successful as well as a couple of well attended village events (Bonfire Night, Quiz Night & VE Day celebrations). Hall hire income is down, but much of this relates the two elections elevating income in the previous year. Overall gross profit is up by around £2000 from last year and margins remain similar.
Expenses
There has been some change in expenses for the year - overall an increase of around £2,000 despite a reduction in energy costs during the year. The committee has been working actively to make improvements to the hall and its operation and this has come with some associated costs. Updating the policies especially relating to health and safety and fire safety has increased costs eg external fire risk assessment and food hygene rating has necessitated works to the hall. We have also had to replace the glasswasher and bar fridge, hence the increase in repairs and renewals.
Despite a small deficit for the year the hall remains liquid with a relatively strong cash position.
