Financial Review

Financial Review
Review of the charity’s
financial position at the end
of the period		 Para 1.21 At the end of the 15 month financial year,
the Trust made an operating surplus of
£43,285. However, if you recognise the
capitalised expenditure of £50,596, this
created a deficit of £7,312.
However, there were some one-off
exceptional expenses, such as £5,000
match-funding towards the £50,000 grant
received to replace our heating oil
system with “air source heat pumps”.
Despite the above, the free reserves at
year-end were £22,050 and considered to
be healthy.
Statement explaining the
policy for holding reserves
stating why they are held		 Para 1.22 The aims of the Reserves Policy are as
follows:

To provide adequate financial stability
and the means for the Trust to meet its
charitable objectives

To demonstrate that the Trustees
responsibly manage its resources

To demonstrate the Trustees’ capacity
to manage unforeseen financial
difficulties.

To provide accountability and give
confidence to sponsors, donors, and
beneficiaries of the Village Hall

To give grant-makers an
understanding of why funding is
needed to undertake a particular
project

To explain unspent funds at the end of
a financial year
Amount of reserves held Para 1.22 The Trustees have a policy to hold
enough funds to meet four months’
operating costs of the Village Hall, plus
necessary maintenance. The reserves at
year-end were:
Restricted Income - £680
Designated Fixed Assets - £50,596
General Reserve - £22,050
Total- £73,326
Reasons for holding zero
reserves		 Para 1.22 N/A
Details of fund materially in
deficit		 Para 1.24 N/A
Explanation of any
uncertainties about the
charity continuing as a going
concern		 Para 1.23 The major concern is that the existing
Hall is deteriorating from a leaking roof.
To completely replace the roof is beyond
the resources of the Trust and
considered not cost effective. Thus the
importance of repairing the roof is
dependent on obtaining grants and
fundraising activities.

A description of the principal
risks facing the charity		 Para 1.46 1. Existing roof is leaking and in urgent
need of repair. We lack the necessary
funds to completely replace the roof.
2. Whilst the hall is no longer exposed to
adverse market movements in spot
price of heating oil, the village hall is
now completely reliant on electricity,
and still exposed to adverse
movements in the variable tariff. The
Trust has a policy of signing up to one
year fixed price tariffs. The Trust is
now seeking grants to install solar
panels to reduce this exposure, whilst
also helping to reduce its carbon
footprint even further.

3. Inability to find new Committee members to share the workload and help with succession planning. Other N/A

doing the Trustees seek the views and

residents of the local community. The
Trustees believe this approach ensures
that new Trustees are respected
members and ensures that good relations
are fostered between the Village Hall and
the people of the local community that it
serves.

Based on the Land Registry records relating to Title No. GR486505, the freehold land and building of the Trust are held by “Ruspidge and Soudley Parish Council” in its capacity as ‘Custodial Trustee’. Accordingly, the Trust considered it inappropriate to recognise these fixed assets within the Balance Sheet of the signed accounts. However, a fixed asset register has been provided by way of additional disclosure note.

During the period, the Trust received a single capital grant of £50,000 towards the supply and installation of an ‘air source heat pump system’. Under the terms of the grant, the Charity was required to provide match funding of 10%, amounting to £5,000. The total cost of the project was £50,596, resulting in a restricted fund deficit of £596, which was settled through a transfer from unrestricted funds.

Following a review of the grant conditions, the Trustees concluded that the grant income related specifically to the acquisition of the ‘air source heat pump system,’ and to then be held for the Trust’s general charitable purposes rather than for an ongoing restricted purpose. Accordingly, the capitalised asset was transferred from restricted funds to an unrestricted designated fixed asset fund, representing its carrying value.

The accounts for the extended period ended 31[st] March 2025 were originally prepared on a receipts and payments basis and submitted to the Charity Commission on 25[th] January 2026. However, the Trust subsequently resolved to prepare its accounts on an accrual basis, and to improve consistency and comparison, these accounts have now been restated and undergone a second independent examination.

A significant consequence of this change in accounting policy relates to the treatment of the ‘air source heat pump system.’ Under the original receipts and payments basis, the full cost was immediately expensed in the Statement of Financial Activities, resulting in an overall deficit of £7,312.

Under the accruals basis, the ‘air source heat pump system’ must be capitalised as a fixed asset, and the cost recognised gradually through depreciation over its estimated useful economic life. The Trustees considered this to be 20 years on a straight-line basis after consulting with the manufacturer. The capital expenditure has therefore been reversed and now appears on the Balance Sheet.

As a result of these accrual adjustments, the reported position has changed from a deficit of £7,312 to a surplus of £43,285. Whilst the Trustees acknowledge that this treatment is in accordance with ‘generally accepted accounting practice’, they consider that this surplus may give a misleading impression of the Trust’s underlying financial position, particularly in the context of future applications for capital grant funding.

Section C Notes to the accounts (cont)

Note 2 Accounting policies 2.2 INCOME

This standard list of accounting policies has been applied by the charity except for those ticked "No" or "N/a". Where a different or additional policy has been adopted then this is detailed in the box below.

Recognition of income
Income from interest,
royalties and dividends
This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can
be measured reliably.
Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as
income with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate
heading in the SOFA.
The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be
the fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on
receipt. In the reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised
as an expense at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution.
Donated services and
facilities
Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of
the gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably.
Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be
exchanged) unless impractical to do so.
In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent
that the charity has provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant
only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP).
Legacies
Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has
been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in
the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the
charity or have been met.
Government grants
The charity has received government grants in the reporting period
Tax reclaims on
donations and gifts
Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the
donor. Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift
and is treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or
the terms of the appeal have specified otherwise.
These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when:
 the charity becomes entitled to the resources;
· it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources; and
 the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.
Donated goods
Contractual income and
performance related
grants
Offsetting
There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required
or permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102.
Grants and donations
Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income
recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP).
This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or
services or met the performance related conditions.
Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations
when receivable.
Support costs
The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs.
Volunteer help
Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the
expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income
from other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance
sheet. On its sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading
activities' and the proceeds from sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading
activities'.
Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets
and included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable.
The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described
in the trustees’ annual report.

2.4 ASSETS
Intangible fixed assets
Heritage assets
Grants with performance
conditions
Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of
service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the
recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output.
Grants payable without
performance conditions
Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity to
realistically avoid the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must be
recognised.
Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support.
Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its
compliance with regulation and good practice.
Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost
categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating property costs
by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.
They are valued at cost.
Investments
Fixed asset investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are
valued at initially at cost and subsequently at fair value (their market value) at the year
end. The same treatment is applied to unlisted investments unless fair value cannot be
measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment.
The charity has intangible fixed assets, that is, non-monetary assets that do not have
physical substance but are identifiable and are controlled by the charity through custody
or legal rights. The amortisation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 9.5
They are valued at cost.
The charity has heritage assets, that is, non-monetary assets with historic, artistic,
scientific, technological, geophysical or environmental qualities that are held and
maintained principally for their contribution to knowledge and culture. The depreciation
rates and methods used as disclosed in note 9.6.1.4.
Tangible fixed assets for
use by charity
The depreciation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 9.2.

subscriptions

and Legacies.
Membership subscriptions which gives a member the right to buy services or other
benefits are recognised as income earned from the provision of goods and services as
income from charitable activities.
2.3 EXPENDITURE AND LIABILITIES
Liability recognition
Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or
constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of
the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty.
Investment gains and
losses
The charity accounts for basic financial instruments on initial recognition as per
paragraph 11.7 FRS102 SORP. Subsequent measurement is as per paragraphs 11.17
to 11.19, FRS102 SORP.
Provisions for liabilities
A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently
measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the
reporting date
Basic financial
instruments
Redundancy cost
The charity made no redundancy payments during the reporting period.
Deferred income
No material item of deferred income has been included in the accounts.
Creditors
The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade
discounts
This includes any realised or unrealised gains or losses on the sale of investments and
any gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the
year.
Governance and support
costs
Settlement of insurance
claims
Insurance claims are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition
criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP) and are included as an item of other
income in the SoFA.
They are valued at cost.
These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least		 1,000
