## **Objectives and Activities** 

||SORP reference||
|---|---|---|
|Summary of the purposes of<br>the charity as set out in its<br>governing document|Para 1.17|**It is the main responsibility of the appointed**<br>**trustees to continually make sure that there is**<br>**efficient running of the Village Hall and all its**<br>**facilities.**|
|Summary of the main<br>activities in relation to those<br>purposes for the public<br>benefit, in particular, the<br>activities, projects or<br>services identified in the<br>accounts.|Para 1.17 and<br>1.19|**As we are a non-profit making organisation, the**<br>**hourly rates are set as low as possible each year by**<br>**the trustees. This not only benefits local**<br>**businesses but also numerous local groups and**<br>**private hires along with the local village sports**<br>**teams that use our facilities. It is the responsibility**<br>**of the duly elected officers to make sure that the**<br>**set levels will generate enough funds each year to**<br>**enable the facilities and all associated equipment**<br>**to be kept in a safe and useable condition.**|
|Statement confirming<br>whether the trustees have<br>had regard to the guidance<br>issued by the Charity<br>Commission on public<br>benefit|Para 1.18|**To meet the requirements of the constitution the**<br>**trustees have regular structured meetings.**|

||SORP reference||
|---|---|---|
|Policy on grant making|Para 1.38|**All fund raising is controlled totally by the group of**<br>**elected trustees. It is their responsibility to make**<br>**sure that funds are available for them to use when**<br>**required. For major projects they will apply for**<br>**grants if available and add their own funds if**<br>**required to complete the project. It is the trustees**<br>**who are responsible for making sure that the**<br>**regular maintenance is completed along with**<br>**repairs, improvements and long-term major**<br>**projects. These will often be dictated by**<br>**amendments in legislation, repair of equipment**<br>**and general wear and tear whilst groups such as**<br>**RoSPA are employed to independently check our**<br>**equipment on an annual basis. Other service**<br>**contracts are in place where applicable to make**<br>**sure the equipment is serviced.**|





|Contribution made by<br>volunteers|Para 1.38|**The trustees are all volunteers who give numerous**<br>**hours of their own time each year so that the**<br>**premises can remain open. This greatly helps the**<br>**manysmall businesses who regularly hire our**<br>**facilities. This also assists local sports teams who**<br>**are regular users of our facilities, whilst any**<br>**additional time remaining can be taken by private**<br>**hirers. Events in respect of fund raising are also**<br>**run by the trustees. It is also the trustee’s duty to**<br>**make sure any works carried out are done so at**<br>**the best value for money. This is completed by**<br>**continually monitoring all outgoings.**|

## **Financial Review** 

|**Financial Review**|||
|---|---|---|
|Review of the charity’s<br>financial position at the end<br>of the period|Para 1.21|**The charity has finished the year again in a strong**<br>**position. The regular hirers are again bringing in**<br>**monthly revenue and ad-hoc private hires have**<br>**now increased back towardspre Covid levels.**|
|Statement explaining the<br>policy for holding reserves<br>stating why they are held|Para 1.22|**Due to being a public building and having**<br>**numerous outdoor facilities we continually must**<br>**make sure repairs and ongoing maintenance are**<br>**addressed to keep the everything in line with**<br>**legislation and carry out works safely as and when**|





|||**required. As this is an always changing remit, we**<br>**need to make sure reserves are there for both**<br>**emergency repairs and long term planned**<br>**works/projects. Any unused funds each year are**<br>**spent on improvements or added to our reserves.**|
|---|---|---|
|Amount of reserves held|Para 1.22|**£40,000. We aim to keep between £30-£40,000 to**<br>**cover for any type of emergency. **|
|Reasons for holding zero<br>reserves|Para 1.22|**N/A**|
|Details of fund materially in<br>deficit|Para 1.24|**N/A**|
|Explanation of any<br>uncertainties about the<br>charity continuing as a going<br>concern|Para 1.23|**There are no uncertainties about our charity not**<br>**continuing as a going concern. There are three**<br>**major factors that mean our Village Hall will**<br>**continue to remain open for the foreseeable**<br>**future. Firstly, there is the existing committee of**<br>**trustees who have made sure over many years**<br>**that we have built up a high level of reserves for**<br>**any major problem/issue that occurs. This has**<br>**certainly been useful and needed over the last few**<br>**years with enforced shutdowns due to Covid.**<br>**Secondly, the trustees have made sure that when**<br>**they can, they have applied for any grants which**<br>**have been made available by independent**<br>**organisations and Government/ Local authorities**<br>**which have been most welcome, appreciated and**<br>**a financial assist. Thirdly, the trustees work**<br>**tirelessly to organise additional fund raising**<br>**events.**|
