The year 2020 has been one that was totally different from any other previous year. With the Coronavirus pandemic the village hall had to close for many months. With the village hall being closed there was very little income from the lettings and leases. The village hall has received grants of £10000 and £1300 from the government via Buckinghamshire Council. Fortunately the village hall has received generous donations from members of the public and local businesses.

During the last year the Women’s Institute has closed. It is very sad to see one of the founder member organisations close mainly as there are less members that can make it function, this along with the Horticultural Society from a couple of years ago means that fewer people are being involved in the running of the village hall. The village hall needs new younger people to become involved.

Treasurer's Annual Report for AGM Although 2020 Is probably a year many would wish to forget. fortunately the Village Hall ended the year as financially secure as it started it. Lockdown stopped all but three fund raising events and closed the hall to hirers for most of the year. This was offset by reduced expenditure and two government grants resulting in a year end cash balance that was £54 more than last year. Review of 2020 Income Total receipts banked were £32,896. Fund raising activities raised £7,972. The breakdown is as follow5.. 2020 Recorded in donations Summer Fete £0 £7,120.(Xl Wine Evening El,336 £0 Scarecrow £631 £0 Christmas Fayre £1,005 £1.312.01 Fireworks £5,000 £17, 795.00 Total £7,972 £27.120.00 The recorded fireworks receipt of £5,0 was banking money from the 2019 event. 2019 £892.99 Christmas Tree The lettings receipts were £7,789, a good proportion of that was 2019 debtors settling their accounts. The actual letting billings were just over £5,000 which is down 75% from 2019. Donations totalled £3,097 the largest individual donations were from Sure Build. the Wl and Naphill Neighbours. Two grants from Bucks totslling £11,334 and £4cKJ from Hughenden PC helped support the Hall. Expenditure Total expenditure was £32,842. Nearly a third of this was paying off year end creditors meaning in-year expenditure was about £23,500. The biggest expenses were: Utilities- £5,256 Ground5-maintenance contract- £3,642 InSUran- £4,356 Financial reserves and cash burn Where prattical, the village hall has minimised its cash burn. Last year I calculated that the hall could survive 3 year5 Wlthout meaningful income. That is still the case which hopefully will be more than enough to see out this crisis.
