## **Trustees' Report**

The land shall be held upon trust for the purpose of a Village Hall as aforementioned. 

## _**Public benefit**_ 

The trustees confirm that they have complied with the requirements of section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission for England and Wales. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

The Village Hall contined to be a focal point of the community and the community user engagement has been targeted by the Trustees and continues to increase with the introduction of new activites. 

The social sub-committee developed a full programme of events and activites for the year. The monthly Coffee Mornings where local residents can meet, has been very successful with informative speakers on a wide range of topics (from The Dog's Trust to Oystermouth Castle). Other events organised included Harvest Supper, Quiz, St Davids Day Twpath, D Day celebrations (a whole day of activities organised with Rhossili Community Council) and Christmas Carols featuring local choir, Lleisiau Gwyr. There were two well attended performances by visting theatre groups partly sponsored by The Arts Council of Wales 'Night Out' Scheme, 

The Trustees contine to oversee the maintenance of the fabric and contents of the building and during the year the refurbishment of the hall continued. We have spent time and funds on the building exterior as there have been replacement glass doors fitted and the building has been painted. We have also improved the kitchen equipment ansd installed a new commercial dishwasher. Lighting within the building has been upgraded to more 'ecologically friendly' LEDs. In 2025, the Hall heating is due to be replaced and Carpark and drive entrance are scheduled to be improved.

## **Rhossili Parish Hall** 

## **known as Rhossili Village Hall** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2025** 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **Statement of compliance** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the second edition of the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011. 

## **Basis of preparation** 

Rhossili Parish Hall meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts. 

The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity, and rounded to the nearest £. 

## **Going concern** 

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. 

## **Income and endowments** 

Voluntary income including donations, gifts, legacies and grants that provide core funding or are of a general nature is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability. 

## _**Donations and legacies**_ 

Donations and legacies are recognised on a receivable basis when receipt is probable and the amount can be reliably measured. 

## **Expenditure** 

All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs. 

## _**Charitable activities**_ 

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.

## **known as Rhossili Village Hall** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2025 (continued)** 

## **Taxation** 

The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes. 

## **Depreciation and amortisation** 

Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows: 

**Asset class Depreciation method and rate** Freehold property 2% straight line Plant and machinery 20% straight line Improvements to property 10% straight line 

## **Trade debtors** 

Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business. 

Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the charity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. 

## **Cash and cash equivalents** 

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. 

## **Fund structure** 

Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity.
