HARDINGSTONE VILLAGE HALL ASSOCIATION
Hardingstone Village Hall Association (HVHA) manages the village hall on behalf of the local community. This includes letting of the premises; maintenance and cleaning; organising the required insurance and licences; and generally ensuring that the resource is a safe, friendly and accessible facility for local use.
Financial health, per its FY2025 accounts
The accounts state that the charity generated a surplus of £7,960 for the year ending March 2025, driven by increased lettings income and reduced operating expenses. The trustees report that reserves need to be rebuilt to a level where the hall can fund future works independently, as they cannot rely on external grants. The organization remains committed to financial sustainability despite past challenges regarding viability.
