Hurstpierpoint Village Centre

The Parish Council is sole Trustee of the Village Centre Charity and must act in a Trustee capacity when required. This involves having a separate bank account, separate Trustee meetings and filing an annual return to the Charity Commission. The building is owned by the County Council and leased to the Parish Council, so the only function of the Charity is the management of the building and taking bookings. This work is undertaken by the Parish Council staff team and a management fee is charged to the Charity for their time. The Parish Council, acting as Trustees of the Village Centre, are considering dissolving the Charity so that the building is managed by the Parish Council directly. If anyone wishes to comment on this proposal, please do let us know.
