## **Trustees Report** 

## **Year Ended 31 October 2021** 

The Trustees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 31 October 2021

## **Charity Objects** 

The property shall be held upon trust for the purpose of a village hall and playing fields for the use of inhabitants of Witchford and the neighbourhood without the distinction of sex, or of political religious or other opinions, and in particular for the use of meetings, and for other forms of recreation and leisure time occupation, with the hope of improving the conditions of life for the said inhabitants. 

After the payment of any expenses of administration the net income shall be applied by the management committee in one or other of the following ways: 

-In the maintenance, upkeep and insurance of the trust property and the payment rates, taxes and other expenses in connection here with and its use for the purpose specified in the trust deed; 

-In otherwise furthering the purpose of the trust deed. 

## Review of the Year’s Activities 

With the hall now on a stable footing the trustees are looking to the future and the hall development. A bank reserve account has been set up to save funds towards the modernisation, extension, and development of the hall. The hall has also advanced its plans to open a trading subsidiary to allow it to operate new ventures arising from the development of the hall and its facilities with the goal of generating profit to re-invest into the charity. The trustees are satisfied that the objects of the charity have been met and the operation and financial review are satisfactory. 

## **Public benefit from the objects** 

The trustees feel that full benefit is given to the people of Witchford with the use of the playing fields and the increased hiring of the hall. 



## **Charities and risk management** 

The trustees have considered the risk to the charity and believe they have all relevant matters under control and have followed the normal guidance given by the Charity Commissioners.
