REVIEW OF FINANCIAL ACTIVITIES

Overview:

The drive to generate and accumulate funds to further renovate and improve our facilities has continued. This year some 50% of those funds were used to renew the floor covering in the main hall, and to entirely refurbish the kitchen. The Charity's bank accounts continue to be held with Barclays Bank.

Income and Expenditure:

Income:

The majority of our reliable income is from long term hirers. The prime long term hirer is the nursery, known as Kiddies Korner, which occupies the hall on weekdays from 7.30am to 3.30pm. Voluntary and National groups generate the second source of income, and the exercise groups (involving professional guidance) the third. There are then the short term hirers, e.g., family parties at weekends. The Charity itself engages in fund raising activities such as craft fairs, concerts etc. Following the end of the pandemic, activities have continued to pick up.

Expenditure:

The maintenance of the hall is the essential ongoing expense. This includes insurance, rates, gas, electricity, water, cleaning, and repairs, e.g., plumbing. The new hall floor and refurished kitchen dominates the overall expenditure this year.

Balance Sheet:

The balance sheet remains healthy.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS STATEMENT Financial year 1[st] October 2023 to 30[th] September 2024

My examination of the accounts for the year ended 30[th] September 2-24 has been carried out in accordance with section 41 of the Charities Act 1993. The examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Charity’s officials and a comparison of the accounts with these records. It also includes considering any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from the Charity concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements to keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the Act, and to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the requirements of the Act, have not been met or to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Signed and Dated: R H Bradley 17/11/24 Examiner’s name Richard H Bradley, 24 Beaumont Road, Oxford, OX3 8JN and his/her address
