MORISON DUNCAN HALL MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE SCIO
COMMITTEE MEMBERS’ ANNUAL REPORT
FORTHE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2025
Reference and Administrative Information
Scottish Charity Number: SC 051141
;
Charitable Purposes
The purpose of the charity, per its constitution, is to operate as a non-profit making distributing organisation whose principal objective is associating with voluntary organisations, the local authority and inhabitants of the local area in a common effort to provide access to recreational facilities and activities with the objective of improving conditions for life for the persons for whom the facilities and activities are primarily intended, and to advance education and in (a) the advancement of citizenship and community development by providing opportunities for all members of the community to participate in recreational activity in the interests of social welfare and (b) the provision of recreational facilities and the organisation of recreational activities. The purposes also include the maintenance of the hall and its grounds, and all administration relating to hall use and bookings.
Governing Document
The charity isa Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation, formed on 22 July 2021 and governed by its Constitution. It became active with opening of its bank account on 12 April 2022 and all activities are carried on through this organisation.
Structure and Management and the Recruitment and Appointment of Trustees
The charity is administered by its management committee, which should consist of nine members elected at the Annual General Meeting plus group representatives. The committee meets almost every month.
New committee members are provided with appropriate induction.
Risk Management
The committee members have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, in particular those relating to its operations and finance, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate the charity’s exposure to the major risks.
Review of Activities and Achievements
The AGM saw a major change in the composition of the committee and the first half of the year saw activity to address the fabric of the hall. Significant grant assistance from Fife Council allowed us to deal with electrical, fire alarm and plumbing issues. The hall continues to be well used by the local community with rental income showing an upward trend. Fundraising activities include a very successful Gala day. Ongoing cost increases across all expenditure areas necessitated an increase in rental rates from July 2025 but the resultant outcome sees us well placed to maintain and improve our facilities.
Donations from several sources have been hugely beneficial during the year and allowed us to replace carry our essential work on the Fire alarm and electrical installation and renew all our tables fora more modern and lighter version.
Future Developments
The charity aims to continue fulfilling its charitable purpose by renting out the hall and fundraising activities in the future.
Reserves Policy
The statement of balances shows total bank and cash funds of £6818 (2024 - £8125) at year end. There are no restricted funds (2024 - £2671) as the amounts previously held have been applied to support major expenditure incurred this year. The committee members are satisfied, however, that the funds remain sufficient for the ongoing work of the charity.
Statement of Committee Members’ Responsibilities
4
The committee members are responsible for keeping proper accounting records, which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements, which they are responsible for preparing, comply with the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended) and the terms of the charity’s Declaration of Trust.
