WEST WINCH VILLAGE HALL
Trustees Report for the Year to 31 March 2024
The Hall is Tegistered with the Charity Commissioners (No 265106) and constituted by Deed of Trust.
The Custodian Trustee is the West Winch Parish Council.
Duringy the year the Parish Council took over the rnanagJement of the hall followingT the reSlgTnation of
the chairman of the trustees. The administration and trust deed which the charity operates under is
currently being reviewed and is hoped that a more up to date system of represenlation can be
introduced shortly to meet the needs of the users of the premises.
The object of the Charity is to maintain the Village Hall for the communal benefit of the inhabitants
of West Winch and its surrounding area. The Management Committee aims to provide first class
facilities at an aftordable cost to voluntary organisations.
It was found following a fire risk assessment in 2023 that an additional fire exit door was needed to
be installed to accomodate the numbers attending events together with other issues relating to the
alam] system itself. The cost of new doors amounted to £3.181. A replacement alam] system was
installed at a cost of £1 0,440. A leak on the rook also necessitated repair works costing £4.740.
{Ongoing issues with regards to the roof may necessitate further costs in this respect.)
The income from lettings during 2023-24 decreased by £2.242 as compared with the previous year to
£28,251- there were also increases wages, cleaning cosls, gas supplies, water. insurance and general
repairs. These are in addition to the major works reported above. The overall effect is that there was
a deficit for the year of £24,655. This has obviously reduced the reserves of the chariti, althoug,h
there is still a net surplus as shown by the Balance Sheet of £18.5i5.
For and on behalf of the Management Committee.

An examination includes a review of the accounling 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 seekingJ explanations from the trustees concerningF any such matters. The procedures
undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no
opinion is g7iven as to whether the accounts present a "true and fair, view and the report is limited to
those matters set out in the statement beloNv.
