Notes to accounts for the year ended 31 March 2021
These annual accounts are prepared on a ‘Receipts and Payments’ basis rather than an ‘Accruals’ basis, in accordance with guidelines set down by the Charity Commission for England and Wales. This simplified presentation of the accounts appropriately illustrates the ongoing financial situation of a small, single-purpose operation such as Barrow Village Hall in a clear and concise way.
Receipts and Payments Account
This financial term was completely overshadowed by the Covid pandemic. Activities came to an abrupt halt on 19 March 2020 when we had to close the Hall. Periods of full or partial lockdown from March onwards resulted in a drastic reduction of the number of events. Fortunately, however, we were able to access Government grants that more than compensated for the loss of income from hall lettings. This allowed us to complete a number of refurbishment projects, i.e. the long overdue replacement of the flat roof, replacing all lights by installing energy-saving LED lights, redecoration throughout, installing new security locks, as well as taking over and restoring the neglected garden which had previously been let with cottage no.1.
Grants and Donations
We received three Government grants totalling £19,669 from the NDR Support Grant Scheme. This scheme provides financial support for rateable businesses including community centres mandated to close down for most activities due to legally binding Covid tier restrictions.
Hall lettings
Income from hall lettings dropped from £9,969 to £2,850, of which £1,525 were late payments for hires prior to the March lockdown. £1325 were raised for legally permitted childcare-related activities (Brownies, Babes & Tots, S Galley Childminders, Popcats) as well as table tennis and music practice by persons belonging to the same "covid bubble".
Rental of cottages
The lease for the Hall Cottage No.1 and No.2 remained unchanged. Cottage No.2 could be let at a favourable market rent after it had been completely refurbished in 2018/19 at the cost of 24.3K.
Maintenance of the Main Hall
At £23.1K, Main Hall repairs and maintenance were by far the largest category of expenditure:
| Roofing | £11,508.00 |
|---|---|
| (restoration of flat roof, slates replacement) | |
| Painting | £3,543.13 |
| (redecoration throughout) | |
| Electrics / Lighting | £3,258.60 |
| (LED replacement of strip lights, fitting motion | |
| detector sensors in the entrance area) |

Financial Overview
Thanks to Government grants bolstering our income, we have been able to offset the adverse financial effects of the Covid lockdowns and carry out some major refurbishment projects, even increasing our cash reserves by £1,728 year-over-year. At the time of writing, it is assumed that the Hall may be open for limited regular hirings from the end of May onwards and that further restrictions will be lifted in June. If all our regular hirers are able to restart, we can expect our cash reserves of £13,091 to be more than enough to see us through 2021 without the need to seek further financial support.
However, there are still many pandemic-related uncertainties about what will happen in the year ahead, and any financial budgeting is more of a speculation. So we need to be prudent and curb expenditure to all but essential maintenance costs.
Examination
The Trustees of Barrow Village Hall are responsible for the preparation of these annual accounts. In their opinion an audit is not required this year (under section CC31 of the Charities Act 2017) but an independent examination is needed. Such an independent examination has been carried out by Mr M J Jebson CA in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 and Charity Commission Form IER has been signed by him confirming his satisfaction with these accounts.
