CHARITY TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT 2025 

Registration No. 523419 

Stockton on the Forest Village Hall Management Committee 

Sandy Lane

York 

YO32 9UR 

## **Trustee Members** 

Chair: Carol Danby Booking secretary: Carol Danby Treasurer: Trish Lewis Minutes Secretary: Karen Nash Clerk of Works: John Danby General officers: 

Julie Lightburn, Arnie Tweddle, Dorothy Hardisty, Vicky Gilbert 

## **Trustees structure and management details** 

Structure – We have a Management Committee of 8 local trustees consisting of elected members as above. We hold Monthly committee meetings which run to an agenda to discuss day to day running of the hall, such as Chairmans, Treasurer’s, Booking secretary and clerk or works reports. Matters arising are discussed such as any problems, maintenance issues etc. 

An AGM is held usually in May each year this is chaired by an outside responsible person eg . Parish Councillor, at this meeting the officers are up for election or re-election. These consist of local people who are able to offer a particular skill or time to the hall. All trustees give their time voluntarily and received no remuneration or other benefits. 



The committee is aware of the importance of the public’s confidence and trust in charities, and trustees undertake their duties accordingly. 

## **Activities and objectives in the year** 

The committee is committed to running of the village hall for the benefit of the community eg. Local playgroup, WI, Gardening Club, children’s parties etc. 

The objective in the coming year is to upgrade the stage area and stage lighting which will benefit our local drama group and other users of the hall. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

With dedication from our Trustees, and with the help from Government grants enabling us to maintain and improve the village hall we feel that we have managed to continue to provide a thriving community asset 

## **Financial review** 

With the help of government grants we are pleased that the village hall is in a healthy financial position with minimal debts of under £100. 

We aim to retain a minimum of £5000.00 in the current account and this year due to government grants we have been able to maintain a reserve of £22,000 in the savings account.
