The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019). 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Objectives and aims** 

The objectives for which the charity is registered is to provide day care and education for children in Canterbury and the local area. 

We provide full day care and out of school care for children aged 3 months to 11 years old. This is done in a secure, safe and stimulating environment. This enhances the education and development of he children. We work within a framework, which ensures an equality of opportunity and support for all children and their families who attend our setting. The trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and in planning future activities. 

## **Public benefit** 

The Trustees have had due regard to governance published by the Charity Commission on Public Benefit, and believe all of the Charity's activities benefit the public. 

## **Equal opportunities** 

The committee advocate and promote Equal Opportunities in all aspects of the charity's work. 

## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Charitable activities** 

Another busy year for us, yet again staff recruitment is tough on our industry. 

We have been concentrating on our provision this year and have not done any major developments. We have had a  few staff changes so have been concentrating on building the team. 

Staff have attended many courses, some online and some face to face. 

We accept the Government funding for 2, 3 & 4 year olds and for working parents of 9 month olds since September 2025. 

## **Internal and external factors** 

The trustees have considered the impact of the events in Ukraine with particular reference to how this may disrupt the charity's business model. strategy and operations. It is noted that the charity has no dealings with either Ukraine or any nation or individual currently experiencing sanctions as a a result of the events in Ukraine. The trustees have liaised with suppliers and customers and similarly they have no dealings that will impact the charity's supply chain, recoverability of debt and credit. It is clear that there is worldwide impact on the cost of particular goods, to include fuel, which in turn has increased the base costs of consumables in the charity. The trustees have calculated the effect and believe that this will not significantly impact going concern. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial position** 

The Charity raised £824,594 in the year ended 31 March 2026 to further its objectives against £707,785 in the previous year. A surplus of £41,536 was recorded against a deficit of £16,755 in 2025/26. 

There was no capital expenditure on enhancing the nursery building this year, furniture and equipment expenditure for the year totalled £3,436 (2025: £4,627). We currently employ 25 (2025: 27) staff and are indebted to their professionalism and enthusiasm. The staff costs for 2025/26 was £612,090 against £587,356 for the previous year. 

The nursery is fully operational and is expected to achieve similar results to that achieved in the years prior to Coronavirus restrictions being introduced. Our fees are reviewed on a semi-annual basis with projections being made for income in the coming period. Any capital expenditure we would expect to spend and any projects that we have planned for the coming year are taken into account. We have a fundraising Committee, which is made up of parents, staff and friends.

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act'). 

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement**

**THE CANTERBURY DAY NURSERY, HOLIDAY PLAYSCHEME & AFTER SCHOOL CLUB NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2026** 

## **1. GENERAL INFORMATION** 

The charity is a public benefit entity and a registered charity in England Wales and is unincorporated. The address of the principal office is Havelock Street, Canterbury, Kent, CT1 1NP. 

## **2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **Basis of preparing the financial statements** 

The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. 

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through income and expenditure. 

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity. 

## **Going concern** 

Taking into account a period exceeding 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that is has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. and for this reason will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, and for this reason will continue to adopt the going concern basis in the preparation of its financial statements. 

## **Income** 

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

Income from the Nursery, Holiday Playsheme and After School Club fees are recognised in full upon attendance by the children to the nursery or clubs. 

Donations received for the general purpose of the charity are treated as unrestricted funds. 

## **Expenditure** 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Resources expended are recognised on an accrual basis to match the expenses connected with running the nursery. All resources expended are in connection with unrestricted income and are allocated as such. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. 

A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each accounting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date. 

Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows: 

|Freehold property|-|50 years straightline|
|---|---|---|
|Garden equipment|-|10 years straightline|
|Furniture & Equipment|-|4 years straightline|



## **Taxation** 

The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.
