What the charity is set up to do and how it does this:
The charity is setup to ensure that there is a committee of trustees to maintain and run the village hall. They do this by raising funds through events for the community held within the public hall and hiring out of rooms to the community via groups and clubs and also private hire. All funds received are then used to keep up with the maintenance required, update and replace items within the hall as and when needed and to provide facilities appropriate to individuals needs that use the hall. The hall is a vital part of the community and allows a safe space for the use of the community to hold events, some of which are annual events and others planned events. It also allows a safe space for community groups and clubs to hold sessions to meet the needs of the community and across all ages.

From 09 March 2026, OSCR is required by law to publish the names of a charity’s trustees as part of its Scottish Charity Register entry. We are also required to publish each charity’s annual report and accounts as received from this date, which may include the names of certain individuals. The only exceptions to publication are where a charity or one of its charity trustees applies for this information to be excluded, and OSCR is satisfied that publishing it would jeopardise the safety or security of a person or premises.

If the charity trustee information on a Register entry appears blank, this may mean that an exemption applies or that the charity has not yet provided the required details to OSCR. Supplying this information will become mandatory as part of future annual submissions.
Copyright

From 30 June 2025, OSCR began collecting charity trustee information through OSCR Online. Providing this information is a legal requirement for all charities. The names of trustees will be published on the Scottish Charity Register from early 2026 to promote transparency and strengthen public trust in the sector.
