Para 1.20 | We provide a warm, welcoming and well- equipped village hall which is available at reasonable rates to anyone who wishes to hire it. The hall is well used and is a vital part of our village community. Usage has more than doubled following a major refurbishment in 2012. But things changed suddenly with Covid-19. Our income from hall hire dropped dramatically as all our regular bookings stopped apart from one. They picked up a bit in the summer then we locked down again. The hall was used as a food distribution centre during lockdown. Covid grants have helped us considerably |

Financial Review

Para 1.21 | Our financial position is sound |
| Statement explaining the policy for holding reserves stating why they are held |
Para 1.22 | Reserves Policy We have adopted the following policies which will be reviewed at our AGM which is held in April each year. Interim reviews will be made if we consider that to be necessary. Day to day expenditure In normal circumstances we consider it prudent that our reserves for day to day expenditure should not fall below £5,000 which is around six months expenditure. But 2021/22 is exceptional because of COVID- 19 so we have increased the reserve to £10,000 which is about a year's expenditure. Improvements We plan to install CCTV in the grass car park opposite the hall. We have therefore reserved £5,000 towards the cost and other improvements. Long term Repairs and Maintenance Our lease (dated September 2013) requires the hall to be decorated outside every five years and inside every ten years. We are also required to keep the hall in good repair and are aware that the flat roofs will require significant maintenance in the medium to long term future. Apart from the sums referred to above, all our reserves (£38,240.12) are available towards this project. |
