## The Hindmarsh Hall 

Chair’s Annual Report for the Financial Year 1[st] April 2023 – 31[st] March 2024 

At every AGM, for many years now, the Hindmarsh Hall Chair has reported on major fundraising initiatives and building projects either in the planning stage or finally completed. This year my report is by contrast, very pedestrian. 2023/24 has been a year of consolidation, and I am pleased to say that the Hall has been doing what village halls should do, providing a popular community venue for activities, entertainment, meetings and private parties. There are very few days when the Hall is unused and often there are 2 or 3 events on in a day. Bookings show that, on average, the Hall is used 6 times a week. In the last 12 months our footfall has been well over 10,000 – that’s the equivalent of almost 30 people a day, every single day of the year. 

The mix of activities continues with exercise classes, concerts, talks, wine and cheese events, WI, three different Scout groups, bridge sessions, Barn Dancing etc, etc. As always we welcome new ideas for classes or activities. 

Having said that the year has been one of consolidation, there has been one major event with a number of aftershocks. That was Storm Babet in October. The heavy rain accompanied by strong easterly winds caused water ingress both in the new store and through the east windows here upstairs, running down behind the wainscoting and pooling on the new oak floor. Downstairs, the sealant between the store roof and the existing wall was found to be faulty and has been replaced. It is also planned to install some flashing along the joint. 

As we all know this was not an isolated weather incident and we’ve all witnessed many periods of torrential rain and wind through the winter. Trustees have regularly been on full alert whenever weather warnings for wind and rain from the east have been issued, having to come to the Hall last thing at night and first thing in the morning to mop up. So our big plan for 2024/5 is to protect and possibly repair the east windows at the very least. We are in the process of getting quotes for this work and will then go to funders to help us achieve it. Some take a view that the Hindmarsh Hall is a money pit. And so it is. But it is also a big success story and for the last five years the Trustees have run the building and its activities and finished the refurbishments and upgrades without any direct appeal to the village for funds. Money pit or no, it is surely all worth it. In a sense the village really has got something for nothing.

Looking at other developments during 2023/4, we trialled and then adopted an online booking system called Hallmaster. This streamlines both bookings and the invoicing process – vital if anything were to happen to Sally – but it is also statisticians’ delight. Already, in just 8 months almost 70 hirers have registered on the system, 222 bookings have been made and over £8,500 has been invoiced. It is working for us and we hope, if you are a hirer, it is working for you too. 

Last spring we applied for and obtained a permanent alcohol license which allows both the Trustees and hirers to sell alcohol without needing to apply for a license each time. Hirers are charged for this at a discount over a temporary license and the income generated has covered the costs of the application. Everyone wins. 

We have kitted out the store with lockable cupboards which are used by the Scout groups and Christmas Lights. This has freed up further storage space in the lower hall for the WI and Brushstrokes. We are very grateful to the Burgage Holders for funding towards both these and new tables and trolleys, and to the Scouts who funded one of their storage cupboards. Our own fundraising efforts of Secret Gardens, the Produce Stall and Art at the Hindmarsh have been very successful and brought in much needed funds to help cover unexpected bills, particularly the sharp rise in fuel costs, and extras like the smart new noticeboard at the top of Northumberland Street. Speaking about publicity for a moment, in total I think we use at least 5 different locations for posters, we have our website, and use Facebook, Instagram, the village newsletter and our own email newsletter to keep everyone informed. We may not be Heineken but we certainly make every effort to refresh the parts . . . . . sorry , to reach all villagers and interested visitors. 

Throughout last year our Heritage group of Bill Bourne, Sean Hammill and former trustee Hilda Blythe worked on the history of this building as a village hall. This was part of Community Action Northumberland’s Village Hall Project. The group received some funding and training in archiving and oral history and all this culminated with a wonderful display at an open day in March. The information panels created are available for other events and our intention is to purchase display boards for the walls in the lower wall on which these panels or other media can be displayed easily for other events. 

Our being able to report such a successful and solvent year is largely due to the wonderful events team led by Maureen Bickerdike and involving many volunteers. They have put together a regular, varied and popular calendar of events that has both helped to pay for all the things we have done and entertained us through the year. We can’t thank them enough. 

Earlier this year we launched the ‘Be a Friend of the Hindmarsh Hall’. Running and maintaining the building takes a lot of man power and we’re trying to share the load. We do need more trustees and please do think about that role, but if you only have limited time any help you can give is a bonus. Volunteering should be enjoyable so tell us what you like doing – whether that’s baking, serving refreshments, building maintenance or pouring over spreadsheets, or perhaps digital media is your thing. 

2 



Whatever they are, your talents are valuable. Even better, volunteer with a friend – that way you’ll combine companionship and helping out. If you’re interested, please fill in one of the little forms on the tables or speak to a Trustee. 

Our current Trustees deserve a big vote of thanks. Sally Wilson is vice-chair and deals with the bookings and hirers generally, Maureen Bickerdike plans and manages events with a small team of volunteers, including another Trustee Nikki Brierley. Bill Bourne and David Denton look after the building assisted by Graeme Popay. Jonathan Letchfield helps with financial planning and Sean Hammill works on publicity among many other things. Judy Woodford is our wonderful Treasurer, and having concluded my own report I will now hand over to her for the Treasurer’s report.

## **THE HINDMARSH VILLAGE HALL** 

## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024** 

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) including Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland". 

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales, the Charities Act 2011, Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charity for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the charity and financial information included on the charity's website.

**INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE HINDMARSH VILLAGE HALL** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The Hindmarsh Village Hall** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of The Hindmarsh Village Hall (the Trust) for the year ended 31 March 2024. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity trustees of the Trust 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 Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all 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 Trust 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.

**THE HINDMARSH VILLAGE HALL** 

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **Basis of preparing the financial statements** 

The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. 

## **Income** 

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

## **Expenditure** 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

## **Taxation** 

The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities. 

## **Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees. 

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. 

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.

## **THE HINDMARSH VILLAGE HALL** 

## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024** 

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) including Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland". 

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales, the Charities Act 2011, Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charity for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the charity and financial information included on the charity's website.

**INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE HINDMARSH VILLAGE HALL** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The Hindmarsh Village Hall** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of The Hindmarsh Village Hall (the Trust) for the year ended 31 March 2024. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity trustees of the Trust 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 Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all 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 Trust 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.

**THE HINDMARSH VILLAGE HALL** 

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **Basis of preparing the financial statements** 

The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. 

## **Income** 

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

## **Expenditure** 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

## **Taxation** 

The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities. 

## **Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees. 

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. 

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
