LOPHAM VILLAGE HALL & PLAYING FIELD – charity number 304003 

I have examined the accounts for the above charity for 2023/24 and clearly it has been a busy year for the Village Hall with a lot of activity to improve and upgrade the facilities. Based on the receipt and payment analysis, I certify that this is a true reflection of the charity for the year ending February 2024. 

Simon Blyth.
