A vAde vadety of local dub5 and ¢ommunty Olg￿lsa110nS have used the hall during
the whole of this year arKI all of the previous year.
Flnan¢lal r•vl•w
Income from the hall remains strong as il continues lo be almost fvlty booked
throughout the year. Core expenditure remains at a sleaty level and no
major improvements to the hall have i*en required in rec£nt years.
Resep4es have ￿ntInued to buibj from recent surpluses and the trustees telieve
that the next improvement requi￿ ts some constr1era￿e work on the hall roof.
This has been estimated lo cost in the reg￿ of £130,000 and trustees have appr￿d
for a grant towards this totsl cost
With this in mlnd. the trustses believe the charitys finances are In a Sour￿ wsiti'on.
