Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities

select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
-
make reasonable and prudent judgements and estimates;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departure disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

prepare financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue in business.
The trustees are also responsible for:
-
keeping proper accounting records
-
safeguarding the Charity’s assets
-
taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud.

Trustees Report
The recruitment and appointment of trustees is reviewed annually at the Public Hall AGM. New trustees are chosen from members who have sat on the Hall committee for a number of years and have shown great dedication and commitment to the Hall over this time. Each new trustee will be officially proposed by a member of the committee and then voted on by the remaining members. When more than one person is nominated for a single position then the person selected will be chosen by a simple majority vote.
The Hall committee comprises the Officials, which include a President, and a Vice President who may be appointed from within or outside of the community. If appointed from outside of the community he or she will not be entitled to vote at meetings of the committee, but if appointed from within the community he or she shall become an ex-officio member and vote, along with a Chair and a Vice Chair who normally stay in Office for a period of two years. The remaining officials include the Secretary, Treasurer and Financial Secretary who do not have a pre-determined period of office.
The Committee is made up of 6 life members who are chosen for their years of service on the committee along with thirty members chosen from the public and elected at the Annual General Meeting. All members of the Hall committee, other than the life members, retire annually at the date of the AGM and their places are filled by the newly appointed representatives. A retiring member may be re-elected.
Having been closed for nearly 15 months due to the Covid pandemic, the Hall finally reopened it’s doors to the public on 17[th] May. This followed quite a lot of preparation work by the Committee and Caretaker to make sure that all aspects of the risk assessment were adhered to and to make sure that all Hall users were as safe as possible. Initial lettings were quite severely limited to allow the caretaker adequate time to clean and disinfect the building and equipment between each activity, most groups understood this and whilst early bookings were quite substantially down on previous years, these have slowly increased and have now reached pre-pandemic levels.
The AGM for the financial year ending September 2020 was eventually held on the 16’[th] June during which the Chair thanked the committee for all their work in getting the Hall ready for use again. The Treasurer reported that funds were still healthy, although these had been helped tremendously by the fact that we received £11,000 in Government funding to help us survive through the pandemic. Much of this had been taken up by normal running costs, such as caretaker’s wages, electricity and phone rental, in addition the Hall was redecorated and the window blinds at the back of the Hall were repaired.
At the AGM it was also decided that as the Hall had been closed for so long, the Officials should stay in position for a further 12 months.
Having been closed it was impossible to hold any fundraising events during this period but some have been tentatively pencilled in for 2022 which include a coffee morning, Bingo and a concert by a choir.
Unfortunately, 2020/2021 saw the loss of further members both past and present who had been great supporter’s of the Hall over many years and their passing was recognised with a minute’s silence held at the AGM
Financial Review
It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds which have not be designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to between six and nine month’s expenditure. The trustees considers that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the charity’s current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. This level of reserves has been maintained throughout the year.
The results of the charity are shown in the Statement of Financial Activities on page 4.
The net expenditure for the charity for the year ended 2021 amounted to (£19,347) compared to net expenditure for the year ended 30 September 2020 of (£10,975)

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT ON THE ACCOUNTS
TO THE TRUSTEES OF LLANRHAEADR YM MOCHNANT PUBLIC HALL AND INSTITUTE
I report on the accounts of Llanrhaeadr Ym Mochnant Public Hall and Institute for the year ended 30 September 2021, which are set out on pages 5 to 11
Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner
The charity’s Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this period under section 144 (2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act ; and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention
Basis of Independent Examiner’s Report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioner. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as Trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent Examiner’s Statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to our attention:
-
1) Which gives us reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act have not been met; or
-
2) To which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
