## **East Hendred Community Centre** 

Year Ended 31 December 2023 

## **Chairman's Report** 

Total revenue for the Hall was broadly flat in 2023 compared to 2022 (£28,266 vs £28,055 in 2022).  This revenue comprises both hall bookings and the income from Snells House, both of which are discussed below.  The profit for all of these areas in total for 2023 was £9,327 (2022: £7,000 profit).  This was primarily driven by less high cost repairs and maintence being needed in the year and also by increased interest income. 

## **Operating account:  Hall Hire** 

Bookings in 2023 totalled 570 over the course of the year (2022: 507 bookings), a 12% increase in volume of bookings taken.  Despite the increase in number of bookings, the total hall hire turnover decreased slightly from £13,992 in 2022 to £12,707 in 2023 (a decrease of 9%), due to the nature of bookings taken. 

There are more than 8 groups / organisations that use the hall on a regular basis, (plus the Pre-school in a separate room) including organisations providing dancing and exercise classes, classes for children of all ages and also regular events such as the Scouts, WI and the Golden Age club.  In addition, we also continue to cater for a number of "oneoff" users e.g.  childrens' and adults' birthday parties. 

**Operating account** :  Other Interest received in the year increased from £574 in 2022 to £2,755 in 2023.  This was driven by increased interest rates (rather than increased cash balances). 

## **Operating account:  Expenses** 

Expenditure of £15,449 was lower than in the previous year (2022: £17,763) due to lower repairs and maintenance costs incurred in the year.  The prior year repairs and maintenance included significant costs including new lighting for the hall and kerbstones and tarmac for the car park and driveway.    The largest expenditure items in the year were the repairs and maintenance spend (including replacement of kitchen water heater), the warden’s fees for Hall Management, electricity costs and Hall insurance, making up 83% of the total (prior year 85% of total expenses). 

Due to the increased interest income and lower costs incurred in the year, the operating account showed a profit of £3,589, compared to a profit of £618 in 2022. 

## **Grants** 



In 2023, EHCC received one grant of £250 for use on "warm spaces" from Oxfordshire Community Foundation warm Spaces.  In 2022, EHCC did not receive any grants during the year. 

## **Capital Account (including Snells House)** 

The Capital account showed a total income of £9,228, which was broadly flat on the prior year (2022: £9,674).  The largest item included is the rental income for the Snells House flat, which has been occupied all year (as in the previous year).   After deduction of Hall Fund Raising costs (dealt with separately below), 2023 capital account expenditure of £2,010 is higher than 2022 spend of £1,297 due to more significant repairs being completed on Snells House in 2023 than in 2022.   The capital account produced a profit of £5,738 in 2023 (2022: £6,382). 

Bars for events continue to be run by third party contractors, with the Hall receiving 10 percent of the takings.  The bar income for 2023 was £266 (2022: £60). 

## **Hall Fund Raising Events** 

An Easter Bazaar was held as the main fundraising event in 2023.  This was a great success and produced a profit, which was shared between three organisations (East Hendred Community Centre, 1st Cuckhamsley Scouts and St Augustine’s Church);  the Community Centre’s share was £548 (2022: £479). 

## **Related organisations** 

The Hendreds Pre-school leases space from Snells hall on a long term basis to operate the Pre-school, which continues to function well, operating daily during term time.  The annual payment to the Community Centre in 2023 was £2,040 (2022: £2,040). 

East Hendred Heritage Trust leases storage space off the Gallery from the Community Centre, on a long lease. There is also a building to house the village fire engine in the hall grounds, with a separate lease. The total payment including hire of the hall for a photo viewing event in the Community Centre in 2023 was £443 (2022: £356).
