BROADCLYST VICTORY HALL ANNUAL REPORT & ACCOUNTS YEAR ENDED 31st DECEMBER 2024 

The Trustees present their report together with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31st December 2024. 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 2024) : 

Chairman - Mr David Snell Vice Chair / Secretary  - Mrs Lynsey Gillanders Treasurer - Mr Simon Glendenning Mrs Shelley Bennett 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. This café is becoming increasingly popular, particularly by members of the community who have retired. 

The hall also supports local charities, with a particular emphasis on Clyst Caring, who run a day centre in the village. As well as fundraising for Clyst Caring, we also make room available to them every Thursday for use as a sales area for clothing. 

We saw our income increase, year on year, by 8%, this is entirely due to greater hall use – as we have not increased rents in the period. We remain focused on ensuring that the hall is maintained to the highest of standard to maintain an excellent user experience. To this end we £11,000 spent on roof repairs, decorating, carpet replacements and new handrailing. 

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 15th October 2025 On behalf of the Management Committee.
