What the accounts disclose
“Donations, Legacies & Grants Fundraising Other Activities Shop Maintenance Film Night Sub total (Gross income for AR)” — page 6
“The trustees have agreed that there should be a minimum of £10000 held in reserve as contingency for unforeseen building repairs. Reserves should also be built up to fund building alterations or improvements.” — page 5
“During the review of the finances in preparation for our 2024-25 submission to the Charity Commission, we discovered that an expenditure of £10000 in the FY 2023-24 submission had been incorrectly identified as an asset in that return instead of a donation to East Hanney Parish Council for our contribution to the new extension to a car park adjacent to the Hall. This was reported to the Charity Commission in January 2026 and it was agreed to amend last year’s entries in the CC16a report for FY2024-25 to correct the error” — page 5
