## **Financial Statements for the year ended 31 March 2026**
The Charity Commission form cc16a is attached to this document
## **Governing document**
Victory Hall Trust is constituted as a charitable trust registered with the Charity Commission in July 1963 under charity number 220940. It is governed by an indenture from December 1919, updated by resolution in March 2011.
## **Organisational structure**
The charity trustees are responsible for the general control and management of the charity. The trustees give their time freely and receive no remuneration or other financial benefits.
The trustees meet as a body at least quarterly and are responsible for all decisions taken in relation to running the Victory Hall.
Individual trustees are given responsibility for finance, maintenance and bookings.
Recruitment and appointment of trustees
The existing trustees are responsible for the recruitment of new trustees; elections take place at the charity’s AGM. Trustees are appointed for a 3-year term.
## **Training of trustees**
Following appointment, new trustees are introduced to their new role and given access to the trust document library and introduced to the policies and procedures adopted by the charity.
## **Objectives**
As a trust our aim is to carry out the object defined in our indenture which is to enable the “village hall, recreation room and ground to be used and enjoyed in perpetuity by the inhabitants for the time being of the said hamlet of Farley Hill”. As a consequence of our actions a sense of community that did not exist before continues to flourish within the village, with all that use the hall, proud of a revitalised building.
## **Activities and achievements**
## **How our activities deliver public benefit**
More than half of the residents of Farley Hill have attended an event at the Victory Hall with regular users including Farley Hill Village Society continuing to thrive in the updated facilities we as Trustees have provided and manage.
## **Community activities**

The hall and meeting rooms are available for use by local groups and organisations. A wide variety of activities are organised and take place including Sewing Club, various U3A groups, toddler play groups and community social evenings.
When facilities are not required for community use, they are available for hire on commercial terms. This year our facilities were used on over 200 days with many groups organisations and individual benefiting from the improved facilities we now offer the local community.
## **Maintenance activities**
Regular maintenance has been carried out this year to ensure the facilities are in good order including a new septic tank for our new toilets installed last year.
## **Financial review**
## **Reserves policy**
The trustees have reviewed the reserves of the charity. The policy, regularly reviewed, is to hold enough funds to meet our annual obligatory costs including fuel and insurances.
## **Principal funding sources**
The charity’s main source of income during this financial year has been through hiring the hall to regular users such as Farley Hill Village Society and Artists Harvest alongside casual one-off users.
## **Plans for future periods**
The Trustees will be upgrading the bar area including new counter tops, shelving and new bar fridges.
## **Statement of Trustees’ responsibilities**
The charity trustees are responsible for preparing an annual report and financial statements in accordance with applicable law
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the charity trustees to prepare financial statements for each 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 of the charity for that period. In preparing the 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 judgements 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; prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.

They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
