Structure, governance and management
The charity is an unincorporated charity governed by a charitable deed. Trustees are individually voted at the AGM. The trustees are responsible for the running and the maintenance of the facilities. This currently consists of 4 trustees who were elected at the AGM. At the AGM in March 2024 we unanimously voted to make the amendment to our Deed of Declaration to reduce the required amount of elected trustees to be quorate from 8 Trustees to 3 Trustees. They are supported admirably by 2 paid employees. Loddon and Chedgrave Parish Councils are also permitted to have a representative on the Management Committee as are all user groups.
Objectives
The charity provides and maintains a community hall to be used for meetings, lectures and classes and for other forms of recreation, with the objective of improving the condition of life for the inhabitants of the parishes of Loddon and Chedgrave.
Review of activities
The main focus for the hall this year was to ensure the continuance of the hall by reducing overheads whilst maintaining the services we provide for our hirers. The hall continues to be well utilised in the community with limited spaces available for regular hire.
Future plans
Our primary objective is to ensure the hall can financially support itself for many years to come and to use technology to make the hall more efficient and lighten the work required by trustees. We have been discussing with Loddon Town Council how they can better support the hall as well as discussing any potential opportunities with South Norfolk Council. We continue to search and apply for any grants that might help us maintain and improve the hall as well as explore fundraising opportunities.
Financial review
The financial statements show the current state of affairs, which the trustees consider to be in need of more revenue and are seeking to create more funds via various avenues.
Reserves policy
It is the trustee’s policy to retain funds to cover at least 3 months of operational expenses and save for significant future repairs. Free reserves at the year-end stood at £8,884 which equates to approximately 3 months of running costs based on these results.
Public benefit
The trustees make decisions with due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission.
Principal risks
The trustees monitor risks and uncertainties facing the charity and plan accordingly.
Future plans
The trustees intend to continue the work of the hall to provide a sustainable financial future for this multi-use facility for the local community.
The trustees and I would like to express our gratitude to all our hirers and anyone who has supported the Loddon & Chedgrave Jubilee Hall (Jubilee Hall – Loddon).

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Jubilee Hall - Loddon
I report on the accounts for the year ended 30[th] September 2025.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 and that an independent examination is required.
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act 2011); and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention
Basis of the independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. 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 provide a 'true and fair view' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statements below.
Independent Examiner's statement
During the course of my examination, I was provided with the charity's accounting records, including the bookkeeping records and bank statements. However, not all of the supporting documentation requested was available. As a result, the scope of my examination was limited and I was unable to obtain all the evidence that I considered necessary for the purposes of my examination.
Subject to the limitation described above , in connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 130 of the Charities Act 2011; and
-
• to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act 2011
have not been met; or
- to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
