What the accounts disclose
“The Charity offers for hire a Community Hall for recreation, education and social wellbeing to other local charities, local organisations, private individuals and businesses.” — page 5
“The policy will restrict reserves of two years expenditure, currently about £6,000 per annum.” — page 5
“It is clear that without the grants the Trustees have managed to secure the maintenance of the hall would be difficult to achieve. Once the Reserves have been taken into account, this does not leave a lot to continue to operate if any other major issues are identified.”
