The Trustees present their report and the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021. The trustees have adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” (FRS 102) in preparing the annual report and financial statements of the charity.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in notes to the accounts and comply with the charity’s governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland published in October 2019.

Trustees of the charity

The trustees who have served during the year and since the year end were as follows:

John Lee (Chairman) Kim Day Susan Hodges (resigned 6 July 2020) Tracy Gorrod Mary Bendall Vanessa James Alan Wild Marie Tucker (appointed 22 February 2021) Pauline Lee Nick Latchem (resigned 21 January 2021)

Structure, governance and management

Constitution

The Charity is governed by a scheme dated 18 April 2002 and amended January 2003 and November 2013 by order of the Charity Commissioners for England and Wales. The scheme replaces the trust deed of 29 April 1976.

Organisational Structure and How Decisions are Made

The Charity is managed by a committee of management who are subject to re-election or reappointment at the annual general meeting. The committee meet on a regular basis and all matters must be decided by majority decision of the members present and voting at a duly convened meeting of the committee.

Appointment of Trustees

The Charity is administered by the existing Trustees as listed until the annual general meeting when they offer themselves for re-election. New Trustees are appointed at the annual general meeting as required.

The Trustees, at the year end, are a well-balanced group of local people who are able to draw upon a variety of skills and experience and who manage the affairs of the hall with interest and enthusiasm. All Trustees give their time voluntarily and receive no remuneration or other benefits.

Objectives and activities

Object of the Charity for Public Benefit

The object of the charity is the provision and maintenance of the Village Hall for use by the inhabitants of the area of benefit without distinction of political, religious or other opinions including use for:-

The Village Hall is in the name of Shrawley Parish Council as custodian trustee.

Shrawley Parish Hall Trustees’ Annual Report Year Ended 31 March 2021

When planning our activities for the year the Trustees have considered the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit and, in particular, the guidance on charities for the advancement of community development.

Treasurer’s review

With the country in lockdown because of the Covid pandemic throughout most of this accounting year income has been restricted to three main sources. The trustees have received rent and lunchtime usage payments throughout most of the year from our tenant Little Squirrels nursery, some hire fees from our loyal Jujitsu customer, the Kajuen Ryu, and lockdown grants from the Government via Malvern Hills District Council which have been our life blood.

Upkeep and maintenance payments have continued for essential items only including the installation of a new fire protection system which became necessary due to the old system becoming unreliable. The trustees are grateful to the National Lottery Community Fund for providing a grant of £5,000 towards the cost of this essential work `

In the early days of the pandemic great efforts were made to make the hall a Covid secure environment and this and the requisite risk analysis were updated as regulations changed.

The trustees give grateful thanks to our Booking Administrator and our Cleaner for their help and support during the year.

Reserves and investment policy

During the year the committee continued to bank surplus funds with COIF charity funds in conjunction with current account facilities with Santander UK Plc. As such the committee does not, at present time, have an investment policy. Its current policy with regard to the use of its reserves is that, with the exception of restricted funds, other funds are held to maintain and run the Parish Hall.

The committee will review both its investment and reserve policy when the Charity’s reserves increase. The unrestricted funds as at the year-end amounted to £122,057 (2020: £108,586). Total funds amounted to £584,398 (2020: £592,046)

Risk review

A risk review has been carried out during the year. No extraordinary risks were identified and further risk reviews will be completed annually. A fire safety review was conducted and associated work completed. In addition, a Covid risk analysis was carried out and updated throughout the year as regulations were revised.

Plans for future periods

The perimeter fencing is in need of replacement due to age and safety issues and this will be completed during 2021/22 at a cost of around £2,500 to £3,000.

Further expenditure is proposed to continue the ongoing programme of maintenance externally and internally of the Parish Hall.

Provision remains for the replacement of the central heating boiler.

Fund raising will continue during 2021/22 and the Trustees will continue to try to find hirers for the Parish Hall rooms for the spare capacity we have at the moment.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Shrawley Parish Hall

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021 which are set out on pages 6 to 15.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity’s trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).

I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent examiner's statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view’ which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Shrawley Parish Hall Notes to the Financial Statements Year Ended 31 March 2021

1 Summary of significant accounting policies

(a) General information and basis of preparation

Shrawley Parish Hall is an unincorporated charity in England. The address of the charity is given on page 1 of these financial statements. The nature of the charity’s operations and principal activities are set out in the Trustees’ Report.

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011, and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.

The financial statements have been prepared to give a ‘true and fair’ view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a ‘true and fair view’. This departure has involved following the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.

The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain items at fair value. The financial statements are prepared in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £.

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.

(b) Funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.

Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees for particular purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the charity for particular purposes. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.

(c) Income recognition

All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when the charity is legally entitled to the income after any performance conditions have been met, the amount can be measured reliably and it is probable that the income will be received.

For donations to be recognised the charity will have been notified of the amounts and the settlement date in writing. If there are conditions attached to the donation and this requires a level of performance before entitlement can be obtained then income is

8

Shrawley Parish Hall Notes to the Financial Statements Year Ended 31 March 2021

deferred until those conditions are fully met or the fulfilment of those conditions is within the control of the charity and it is probable that they will be fulfilled.

For legacies, entitlement is the earlier of the charity being notified of an impending distribution or the legacy being received. At this point income is recognised. On occasion legacies will be notified to the charity however it is not possible to measure the amount expected to be distributed. On these occasions, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset and disclosed.

(c) Income recognition (continued)

Income from trading activities includes income earned from fundraising events and trading activities to raise funds for the charity. Income is received in exchange for supplying goods and services in order to raise funds and is recognised when entitlement has occurred.

Investment income is earned on cash held on deposit with COIF Charity funds. Interest is accounted for when received, as is any tax recoverable on such income.

(d) Expenditure recognition

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Expenditure is recognised where there is a legal or constructive obligation to make payments to third parties, it is probable that the settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as an expense against the activity for which expenditure arose.

Costs of raising funds comprise those costs directly attributable to fund raising events.

Indirect support costs which include office and administration costs are allocated on the basis of a proportion of direct costs.

(e) Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost (or deemed cost) or valuation less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as intended.

Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset on a systematic basis over its expected useful life as follows:

Leasehold land and buildings 5% straight line Plant and machinery 5% straight line Fixtures and fittings 15%/20%/33% straight line

(f) Going concern

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is

9

Shrawley Parish Hall Notes to the Financial Statements Year Ended 31 March 2021

sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.

Purpose of funds

14

Shrawley Parish Hall Notes to the Financial Statements Year Ended 31 March 2021

The Building Fund exists to refurbish the property. The first phase of the fund included grants from Community Fund, Welcome to Our Future, Countryside Agency, Awards For All, Eveson Charitable Trust and donations, including an amount of £10,657 from the Parish Council, which have been used for the building work and refitting of the Village Hall.

The second phase has involved grants from the Rural Enterprise Scheme and Awards For All which have been used for the refurbishment of the part of the building let out as the nursery school. The cost of depreciation will be set against this fund in future years.

The revaluation reserve represents the uplift in the value for insurance purposes.

A grant was received from Malvern Hills District Council for the Film Club, which we hope to start up again when Covid-19 restrictions have been lifted.

A grant of £5,000 was received from National Lottery Awards for All in 2020 towards the cost of updating and extending the fire alarm system in the hall. Due to the Covid-19 restrictions, the work was not completed until this year.
