KINGSWOOD VILLAGE COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION TRUSTEES REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023 Financial performance The Trustees are pleased to report an overall surplus of £23,461, almost unchanged from the surplus of £23,551 in 2022. In a period in whid) costs have risen significantly, this is a very good outcome. The Hall Operating a￿OUnt produced a surplus of £9,649, up 120k on the figuie of £8,627 in 2022. Hall income was £29,060, up by 9Q/o from £26,807 last year, due lo modest increases in some Hall charging rates Ibul no incrèases for charities and village organisalionsl. The 2023 result was due lo the efforts of the very effieienl Hall Management Tearn who have continued lo retain regular hall users, welcomed new users and party hosts and paid Careful attention to holding down operating costs. Despite those efforts, regular Hall operating costs rose by 80h, from £17,981 in 2022 lo £19,411 in 2023, driven mainly by rises in energy prices. cleaning charges 2nd insurance. During 2023 we received the last tran¢he, £2,248, of a grant from Reigale & Banslead Borough Council for our 2022 insulation project. We are grateful lo the Council for ils continuing support. No major improvements have been made to the Village Hall during 2023, however we have undertaken important suNeys of the Hall necessary prior to major development work planned for 2024 and 2025. Our drarna aTm, KADDS, put on two plays in 2023, 'Blilhe Spirit, in June and 'Alphabetical Order, in October. These generated a financial sutplus of £3,619, up by almost £1,000 frr)m 2022, and back to pre-covid levels. The KVCA put on a community concert by the Ioc81 band 'Allanlis' which raiseé £412. The Village Voice has continued to bring interesting articles and news to all Kingswood residents and to support and promote village ¢ommunily activities. In a difficult environment, advertising revenue fell by 70/0 from £17,802 in 2022 10 £16,633 in 2023, although it is still well above pre-covid levels. Printing and production costs have risen by about 4Qh, so the surplus generated by The Village Voice has dropped by allnost £1,500 to a still very respectable contribution of £8,519. The KVCA has also facilitated a village improvement project, the aequisilion of 4 de¢oratNe planters, which are due lo be installeé in February 2024. A CIL grant of £4,817 has been received from Reigate & Banstead Borough Council lo cover the costs of purchasing and planting the planters, whieh will be maintained by the Village Garden Volunteers. The combination of all the abDve factors has resulted in sn overall surplus of £23,461, only marginally less than the £23,551 achieved in 2022. This surplus will be pul largely towards the iaicA'$ major plans for the improvement of the Village Hall, the nexi stage of which will be the re-modelling and rnodernising of the Hall's toilets, lo include a disabled-access cubicle and baby-changing facilities. This stsge is planned to be completed in 2024. The Trustees report was approved by the Board of Trustees. MrRIGunn Trustee Dated.. 22 February 2024
