Treasurers Report 2020

Knowle Village Hall has had an unusual year facing closure due to Covid-19 restrictions and the implementation of some significant projects that were approved but not commenced in the previous year. It has also faced the loss of the existing cleaning company, additional Covid-19 costs, change in insurers and the re-negotiation of its energy supplier.

It is not a financial year to be compared with our previous history as income and expenditure have been markedly affected by lock downs and commitments made in 2019 on capital projects.

Our trading balance shows a year end loss of £16,813 but this is because of:

Projects:

Play Area

The main project was the replacement of the play area. Grants funding this were received over two financial years, the last being paid in April 2020. The overall budget for the play area was set at £61,818 and we actually spent £61,489. The play area opened on 23[rd] March 2020.

Floor

Having never been refurbished we spent £1,644 on restoring the floor to its original state.

Website

We spent £782 in this financial year to redevelop our website. Further expenditure to complete this project took place in 2021.

Investments

Our investments continue to perform well. Our initial purchase value of £12,000 was valued at £19,981 in December 2020 (£18,738 Dec 2019). During the year dividends of £577 (2019 - £564) were received.

Covid-19

Covid-19 has directly cost £537 for sanitiser and other equipment. This provision enabled us to implement our risk management plan and keep the hall open to the maximum extent allowed under law for the benefit of the community.

Final Comments

Against a background of enforced closure, limited opportunities for social gathering and uncertainty the Committee has sought wherever possible to maintain a community resource, achieve value for money and to continually improve the hall. The success of this can be seen in the improving financial reserves, improved facilities and the return of many regular and some new hall users.

There are many people who have contributed to the continuing success of the hall most notably Terry Harris for his painting and Simon Hooper for his landscaping efforts. I also want to thank Carole Hooper for her expertise in helping me to produce these accounts.

Finally I would like to thank committee members for their support and largely unsung hard work; but particularly Jan Manfield for her work at the Covid-19 interface with hall users and Mandy Dickinson for her energy and grant application form filling.
