BROADCLYST VICTORY HALL ANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS YEAR ENDED 31st DECEMBER 2023. 

The Trustees present their report together with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31st December 2023. The financial statements comply with current statutory requirements. 

Broadclyst Victory Hall, Broadclyst, Exeter, EX5 3EE is a registered charity, No 300784. 

The  charity is administered by a management committee comprising (as at Dec 31st 2023) : 

Chairman - Mr David Snell Vice Chairman - Mrs Clare Ratcliffe Secretary - Ms Mel Schwarzin Treasurer - Mr Simon Glendenning Mrs Jenny Cobbledick Mr Colin Jackson 

Income and Expenditure is as shown in the attached accounts. 

The hall continues to subsidise hire rates for local clubs and organisations and every Thursday, runs a community cafe. The hall also supports local charities, with a particular emphasis on Clyst Caring, who run a day centre in the village. 

This year saw a major investment in the halls infrastructure. Following a decision made in the last financial year, we installed a Photovoltaic Array, battery storage and air conditioning. This investment will reduce the halls energy consumption and reduce our carbon footprint. 

It continues to be the policy of the charity to maintain unrestricted funds which are the free reserves of the charity, at a level to cover future anticipated costs for 1 year. The reserves met this policy at the year end. 

The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to these risks. 

David Snell Chairman 27th October 2024 On behalf of the Management Committee.
