Chairman’s Re ort 2021 22 p /

The purpose of Boddington Village Hall Committee is to manage Boddington Village Hall for the benefit of the Upper and Lower Boddington and the wider local community. We seek to ensure that Hall is maintained for the short and long term to support a healthy, vibrant and active community that is accessible for everyone.

Although 2021/22 began with COVID still significantly impacting all activities, the hall bounced back quickly to offer events and activities as soon as Government Guidelines allowed them to do so. It was a credit to the team and all the local groups that enabled the Hall to lead the community out of the lockdowns and to find a sense of normality.

During covid members of the committee started a covid support organisation, and this was formalised into a separate organisation – Boddington Good Neighbours. The Village Hall Committee maintains close links with the newly formed organisation and will continue to work closely to support our community into the future.

A variety of complex restrictions and guidelines remained in place throughout the first half of the year – and the hall was in receipt of some support in the form of grants.

Members of the committee continued to participate in the joint recreational task force with the Parish Council and this resulted in the building of a new cycle track – which was a major benefit to families and children through lockdown. The grand opening of the cycle track was one of the earliest events that was able to take place in August 21. This brought together all the local groups and was well attended by the cycling community.

Some previously cancelled weddings took place, often with lower numbers. Although there remained significant uncertainty over the winter period, our two main fundraising events, the fireworks and the dinner dance were able to take place, and the Senior’s Christmas Lunch was able to take place with enhanced precautions.

The Friday café was able to restart at the end of April, precautions were taken, and it was held throughout the summer. The café has become increasingly popular with considerable effort on the part of a small group of committed volunteers. Bacon and sausage baps became a regular addition to the vast array of home made cakes and beverages. The café has become a focal point for the community and encourages multi-generational interaction and offers a social lifeline to many in the community.

In February 2020 the Hall worked with a small group of parents to put on a regular children’s football competition providing the food and drink. The Hall also prepared for the Jubilee celebrations that took place in the following year.

During the year the committee considered its strategy and focus – reaffirming its commitment to promoting weddings and family events to raise funds to continue to offer a wide range of activities and community events at prices which enable inclusive access to everyone. The Hall is the centre of village activities and that will continue into the future.

The Hall continued to support the creation and circulation of a local newsletter (the Bugle), produced bi-monthly and circulated to all villagers. This was a critical part of the Village communication to ensure that everyone knew where to get help if needed.

Financially, after taking into account depreciation, the Hall made a positive contribution through the commitment and hard work of its volunteers. The experience of covid and the pandemic has highlighted the need to extend the hall to provide a consistent service for the community. Extending the hall to provide a more permanent function room and café overlooking and interacting with the playground and sports field will underpin our efforts to support the social wellbeing of our community.

Boddington Village Hall depends heavily on the time and commitment of its Trustees and Volunteers. More than ever the professionalism and enthusiasm of the individuals meant that the Hall could step up and support our community throughout the pandemic. For this the team has both my deepest thanks and those of the Community.

Caroline Sheers, Chairman Boddington Village Hall

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Boddington Village Hall

I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2022, which are set out on pages 1 to 11.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year 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 accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
to 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 accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts 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 accounts 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:

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 2011 Act; and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act, have not been met.
