| Summary ofthe main achievements ofthe charity during the year |
Following the refurbishment ofthe Village Hall (funded by the National Lottery), which commenced in July 2018and was completed by August 2019, Laxton Village Hall has been available to be rented by residents ofthe village and surrounding area, subject to the restrictions |
|||||||
| that were put in place as a result ofthe Coronavirus pandemic. |
||||||||
| The financial results for the year to 31 December 2022 continued to |
||||||||
| some extent to be impacted by the Coronavirus pandemic restrictions, |
||||||||
| with the Village Hall unable to be opened for long periods oftime in |
||||||||
| previous years, along with other periods where residents and local |
||||||||
| groups were not keen to return to using the facilities with income levels | ||||||||
| therefore still reduced from pre-pandemic / expected levels. Costs have |
||||||||
| returned back to 'normal' levels, although increases in all cost categories |
||||||||
| have started to be seen as a result of inflation. | ||||||||
| Only minor refurbishment expenditure was incurred in the year to |
||||||||
| 31 December 2022 (screens/partitions for hall &some external |
||||||||
| brickwork) as this project has now been largely completed. | ||||||||
| The Charity does not have a formal reserves policy. Reserves at |
||||||||
| Brief statement | ofthe | 31 December 2022 total Et8,905 of which 810,544 are in restricted | funds | |||||
| charity's | policy on reserves | and are in relation to the National Lottery funding. These are therefore |
||||||
| restricted and to be spent on the refurbishment project. The balance |
of | |||||||
| reserves in unrestricted funds (E8,361)and are considered adequate |
to | |||||||
| cover overheads / running costs for a number ofyears. |
