## **Wacton Village Hall Annual Financial Report** 

## **Income** 

In the previous financial year, there was very little hall hire due to the pandemic. Finances were supported by a number of Government grants.  Moving to this financial year, in the Spring of 2021, our Village Hall and its activities, was still subject to some covid restrictions. However, we have been successful in welcoming back existing hirers and welcoming some new ones as well. This has brought in enough earned income to cover essential running costs only. We have also been successful in claiming some further grant funding which has left us in a good financial position going into 2022/23. We received the final settlement for the fraud suffered in 2020 including an element of compensation for HSBC’s poor performance in dealing with our claim. 

## **Expenditure** 

Major costs were incurred to fix the old heating system. Business rates were reduced by the Government to assist with covid but will revert to normal levels in 2022/23. We have contracted with a regular weekly cleaner and a regular sixweekly window cleaner. 

## **Investment** 

A new website was commissioned so that we had a better booking system and public presence on the internet. A hive thermostatic control was purchased to enable improved heating control. 

## **Banking** 

The Village Hall was operating four bank accounts – two current accounts and two deposit accounts. Our bankers, HSBC, started charging on a monthly and transactional basis in November 2021.The accounts with HSBC have been closed. The Village Hall now operates one current account and one deposit account with the National Westminster Bank, currently with no service charges. 

## **Conclusion** 

This has been a year of recovery. The Village Hall is in a good financial position and can move forward. It is an opportunity to ensure that the fabric of the building and fundamental services within the building are renewed or improved to safeguard the future operating of the Village Hall for the community.
