Achievements and performance
The charity was formed and registered with OSCR in De￿mber 2024 and took on the day-
to-day running of Pillochry Town Hall on the 1 st July 2025 under a Management Agreement
from Perth and Kinross Council.
Pitlochry Community Action Trust provided early assistance including Sourcing of grant
funding of approx £30,000 to enable the building to be professionally SUFveyed. The
outcome of the survey was satisfactory and indicated that the building was in reasonable

condition. The suNey work also identified how th8 building could be repurposed in the future
to make it frt for the 21st cenlury.
In the six months to the end of the financial year, the early èfforts of the trustees were to
improve the quality of the space provision at the town hall for the benefrt of all users and the
community generally. This included an amount of redecoration supported by grant funding
and donated labour from volunteers. The charity has worked with Perth and Kinross Council
during this period to oversee and complete several essential repairs which were a condition
of the management agreement.
The organisation has continued to recruit members and the membership now stands at
approximately 300 members, representing in excess of 1 Oyo of the population of the town.
Approximately 70 events have been held during the last six months of 2025, representing a
significant Inc￿aSe on use by the community of the Town Hall prior to thè charity taking on
its management. The events include a number of long-temi contracts.
Grant funding to date has been secured from a number offunding bodies and the detail is
set out in the Notes to the Accounts below.
In addition to grant funding, donations totalling approx. £6,000 have been re￿iVed from
individuals and local businesses.
Future pLans for 2026
The key objeotives for 2026 are..
1. The ensure the charity achieves at least a break even on its adivities including
building the number and value of income generating events and hall lets.
2. Complete and submit the Community Asset Transfer application to Perth and Kinross
Council

grant funding for major capital projects can be lined up and inilialed promptly once
the charity owns the building.

Independent Examiner's Report to the members of PitLochryTown Hall
I report on the acwunts of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2025 which are set
out on pages 6, 7, 8 and 9.
Respectlve responsibilities of trustees and examlner
The Charity's truslees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with
the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities
Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 20ChS. The charily trustees consider that the audit
requirement of Regulation 10{1) (dl of the 2006 Accounts Regulations d￿S not apply. It is
my responsibility to examine the a¢¢ounts as required under section 44{1 } (c) of the Act and
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examlner's statement
My examination is carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the 2006 Charrties
Accounts {S¢otland) Regulations 2006. 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 seeks
explanations from the trustees conceming any such matters. The procedures undertaken do
not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audil. and consequently, I do not
express an audit opinion on the accounts.
Independent examiner's stat&m8nt
1. In the course of my examination no matter has come to my attenlion which gives me
reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements..
to keep acGounting records in accordan￿ with section 44{1) (a) of the 2005 Act
and Regulation 4 of th6 2006 Accounts R8gulations, and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with
Regulation 9 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations have not been met. or
2. to which in my opinion, attention should be drawn in orderto enable a proper
understanding of the accounts to be reached.
