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.
Analysis by Giving is Great

Positives:

  • Spending has increased over the last 3 years relative to the previous period
  • There have been no material income shortfalls in recent years
  • A significant proportion of recent income was derived from major grant makers including the Government
  • The Board appears to be well diversified in terms of gender

Regulatory & Governance issues to consider:

  • One or more trustees receive payments or benefits from the charity for providing services to the charity

Financial issues to consider:

  • A PartB annual return has not been required and so detailed financial information is not available from the online data
  • Income was lower than spending in the latest year
