with the object of improving  the conditions of life for the inhabitants." 

## **Main Activities, Achievements and Performance** 

The Charity became active on 1st December 2020 when it assumed responsibility for the maintenance of the Hall from its predecessor charity of the same name (number 300631); such Charity also transferred all its assets and undertaking to the Charity.

## **Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities** 

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with the United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and applicable law and regulations. 

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources for that year. 

In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

- make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures 

- disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the 

- Charity will continue in operation. 

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the applicable Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations, and the provisions of the Charity’s constitution. The Trustees 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.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of St Tudy Village Hall** 

I report on the financial statements of the Charity for the year ended 31st March 2026 which are set out on pages 5 to 8. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements, and they consider that an audit is not required for this period under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to: 

·         examine the financial statements under section 145 of the 2011 Act; 

- follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 the 2011 Act; and 

·         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 financial statements presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements, 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 financial statements 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 130 of the Charities Act 2011; and to prepare financial statements which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Act have not been met; or 

(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be the accounts to be reached.

**St Tudy Village Hall** 

**Notes to the Financial Statements for the year ended 31st March 2026** 

## **Note 1 Accounting Policies** 

## **Statement of compliance** 

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective April 2008). The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2015) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011. 

## **Basis of preparation** 

St Tudy Village Hall meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes. 

## **Exemption from preparing a cash flow statement** 

The Charity opted  to adopt Bulletin 1 published on 2 February 2016 and has therefore not included a cash flow statement in these financial statements. 

## **Going concern** 

The Trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern. 

## **Income** 

All incoming resources are recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the resources, certainty of receipt and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability. Income derived from charitable activities are recognised as earned. Investment income is recognised on a receivable basis. 

## **Resources Expended** 

Liabilities are recognised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the Charity to pay out resources. 

## **Taxation** 

The Charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes.  Accordingly, the Charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act of 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.

## **Note 1 Accounting policies cont'd** 

## **Financial Instruments** 

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the Charity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. 

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Charity after deducting all of its liabilities. 

## **Recognition and measurement** 

All financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at transaction price. Financial assets are derecognised when and only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or are settled. 

Financial liabilities are derecognised only when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires. 

## **Restricted funds** 

All income and assets of the Charity are unrestricted unless otherwise stated.
