The Village Hall Committee

Keinton Mandeville Village Hall, in common with most village halls is held in a trust, administered by the trustees; usually known as the "Village Hall Committee.  The Trust Deed is the controlling document and registers us as a charity.

The Village Hall Committee meets most months and comprises elected members and representative members.  The elected members are elected at the Annual General Meeting, and the representative members are put forward by the groups who regularly meet in the hall.  At the first  meeting following the AGM the Committee then appoint the Committee's officers for the next year.

As a registered charity the Committee have to provide a set of accounts each year which forms part of the Annual Report.  The accounts are approved by an "Independent Examiner".

The Keinton Mandeville Parish Council are the "Custodian Trustees", which means that they have the duty to appoint a new village hall committee were the AGM unable to appoint a new committee.  On a practical basis the Parish Council have always been very supportive of the village hall, and have always provided a grant to assist with the running costs of the hall.
