HARDWICKE VILLAGE HALL COMMITTEE

Registered Charity No. 279925

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST AUGUST 2022

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT

To the Trustees and members of Hardwicke Village Hall Committee

I report on the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 August 2022, which are set out on pages 2 to 6 .

Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner

As the charity's trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts: you consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.It is my responsibility to examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act; to follow the procedures laid down in the general directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act), and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of Independent Examiner's Report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting 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 seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a true and fair view and the report is limited to those matters set out below.

Independent Examiner's Statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention

1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements

2. to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act

3. to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act

4. have not been met; or

5. To which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Accounting Policies

Basis of accounting

The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note to these accounts. The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice : Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued on 16 July 2014 and with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and with the Charities Act 2011.

Grants

Grants are recognised in full in the Statement of Financial Activities in the year in which the charity has unconditional entitlement to the resources.

Depreciation

Depreciation of fixed assets is calculated to write off their cost or valuation less any residual value over their estimated useful lives as follows:

Leasehold buildings Nil Office equipment 10% straight line

No depreciation is provided on leasehold buildings as, in the opinion of the committee, the current market value is not less than the valuation and the buildings are fully maintained thus ensuring that any depreciation would be immaterial.

Stock

Stock is stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Net realisable value is based on the estimated selling price less the estimated cost of disposal.

Taxation

No provision is made for taxation as the organisation is a registered charity and is not liable to taxation on its income.
