Operations:

What the charity is set up to do and how it does this:

THe Management Committee owns the village hall on behalf of the community of Cardross. We have 3 halls and an upstairs hall which are all available to let. The Hall is used every day except Sunday when it is used occasionally for childrens' parties. There are many users of the hall ranging from Mother and Toddler groups , Brownies and Rainbows, Dance Classes , Archery Classes, Yoga group, monthly meetings of Cardross Community Council and occasional lets for parties and private functions including occasional weddings. The hall is the polling place for the village and the committee organised an annual Burns Supper. We give a reduced rental to charities and childrens organisations. We struggle to maintain sufficient funds to provide heating in the winter and are currently hoping to raise grants to repair the roof which needs urgent attention as the hall was built in 1889.

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.
