## **Witchford Playing Fields Association Trustees** 

## **Report** 

## **Year Ended 31 October 2022** 

The Trustees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 31 October 2022 

## **Constitution** 

The charity created by a trust deed on the 31[st] December 1961 by the conveyance of land previously owned by the Church Commissioners. This land comprised 4.878 acres situated in the parish of Witchford, and known as the playing fields. 

## **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. 

The village hall was originally built in 1990 with help from residents and community. It has remained the centre of an ever-growing village and within the time of its build, the village, like so many others in the area, has doubled in size. 

With the ever-increasing population, it was felt by many we needed to increase the uses of the Hall and adjoining social club to increase its appeal to all and accessibility for everyone. 

This year we undertook vast work to improve the interior appearance and give it a more modern look. We have rennovated the bar area, installed a new floor and kitted out a new kitchen in order to serve exterior sports and supporters, linking it in with the activities of WPFA Trading Ltd. 

To date, we have also reduced our environmental impact by adding 30 solar panels plus batteries, changed from fluorescent tube lighting to LED throughout and increased insulation. 

Further works on the facility and adjoining land will be conducted in the next financial year. 

Changes to come include exterior changing rooms, to free up space for larger rooms 



within the hall. 

## **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.
