Report of the Chair

I am pleased to say that after a challenging time for all during the pandemic the Scrapstore is now returning to normal. We are definitely a different organisation now and perhaps the better for it as we have had time to really consider what is important to us, and now work towards building on that.

Our focus during Covid was on funded work which helped us support the local communities and this still continues. We are establishing an excellent reputation for knowledge and skill within the play area which has really helped us apply for targeted funding which allows us to fulfil our charitable goals of ‘providing or assisting in the provision of facilities for recreation, education and other leisure time activities for children, being facilities of which such children have need by reason of their age or social or economic circumstances, and which will improve the conditions of life for such children by promoting their educational, physical or mental wellbeing.’

This year we have been fortunate to take on two new trustees, Sally Jaeckle and Alban Forster, both who bring new skills to our existing trustee pool. We now have a strong trustee group who have all supported the charity through the pandemic, often with practical support as well as by making difficult decisions as we navigated the difficult time.

We have also been very lucky with our staff. Although we downsized during Covid we have maintained an enthusiastic and skilled team who always drive the organisation forward. I’d like to mention specifically our long serving cleaners Emma Campbell and Maryam Munir who did the difficult job of keeping our spaces clean and disinfected during a time when this became more essential than ever.

We look forward to the coming year as the charity continues to rebuild itself post pandemic and move forward with lots of exciting new ideas and initiatives.

Trustees' Report

The Trustees are pleased to present their annual Trustees’ report together with the consolidated financial statements of the charity and subsidiary for the year ended 31 March 2022 which are also prepared to meet the requirements for a Trustees’ report and accounts for Companies Act purposes.

The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standards 102.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing document, and constitution

The charity is a company limited by guarantee and therefore has no share capital. It is governed by a Memorandum and Articles of Association, dated 26 June 1991. It is registered as a charity with the Charity Commission.

The Trustees are responsible for strategy, policy and financial oversight of the company. Implementation of this is delegated to the Chief Executive Officer and Deputy Chief Executive Officer.

Pay policy for senior staff

Currently the Chief Executive Officer is a freelance consultant and the Deputy Chief Executive Officer is a salaried member of staff. The remuneration for both is governed by the remuneration policy.

The charity’s Trustees perform the strategic lead for the charity together with being responsible for the overview of all operational items which would potentially impact on the charity’s ability to meet its objects, maintain financial stability and affect the ethos of the charity. All Trustees give their time freely and no Trustee received remuneration for their duties as a Trustee in the year. Trustees claimed reasonable travel expenses during this year.

The policies and procedures adopted for the induction and training of Trustees

When selecting new Trustees the charity seeks people who can bring relevant expertise.

Children’s Scrapstore continues to update the Trustees' handbook, ensuring that it adheres to the Charity Commission guidelines. The handbook and induction process is used familiarise new Trustees with all aspects of the work done by the charity and briefs them on their legal obligations under charity and company law, the committee and decision-making process, and key staffs.

Trustees are made aware of the literature and websites of independent governance advisory agencies and can access these at any time.

Organisational structure and management of the charity by the board of Trustees

The board of Trustees administers the charity. The board meets bi-monthly, where financial reports are presented and discussed as well as operational and safeguarding reports. Other sub-groups are formed for specific activities as and when they occur. The Trustees delegate their responsibilities for the day-to-day administration of the charity to the senior management team.

The Trustees who served during the year are listed on page 1.

Trustees' Report

Major risk management

The Trustees have a major risk management strategy which comprises:

A key element in the management of financial risk is the setting of a reserves policy and its regular review by Trustees.

Following the Covid-19 pandemic in March 2020, the risks to the charity were identified and a formal emergency forecast was prepared and reviewed and agreed by the trustees.

During 2021-2022, Government legislation dictated various closures of elements of our trading during the year and we reached and planned for these closures to ensure the sustainability of the charity.

The trustees met more regularly, e.g. at least once a month in order to actively manage the risk to the charity.

Objectives and activities

Our main activities and who we aim to help are described below. All of our charitable activities focus on the encouragement of Reuse, Art and Play and are undertaken to further our charitable objects for the public benefit.

Objects, as set out in the governing document

The objects of the Scrapstore shall be: to provide, or assist in the provision of, facilities for recreation, education, and other leisure time activities for children, being facilities of which such children have need by reason of their age, or social or economic circumstances; and which will improve conditions of life for such children by promoting their educational, physical or mental well-being; to promote the use of waste materials as playthings.

How our activities deliver public benefit

Children’s Scrapstore’s overarching aim is to promote the wellbeing of children, young people and adults through the provision of materials and facilities for creative and imaginative play. We do this through:

  1. Waste collection and re-use

  2. Provision of materials and facilities for play and creativity

  3. Promotion of play and creativity

In shaping our objectives for the year and planning our activities, the Trustees have considered the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit.

Children’s Scrapstore’s objective therefore is to allow children, young people and adults to play, experiment, and stimulate their imaginations with a variety of familiar and unusual, inexpensive materials through the re-use of safe and appropriate scrap - a chance they might not otherwise have. Children’s Scrapstore collects waste and surplus materials from industry and commerce and makes them available, at very little cost, to our member groups. The focus of Children’s Scrapstore’s work is to provide art and craft resources for creative play and education, provide other resources to complement this work, and to raise awareness of play, creativity and re-use.

Trustees' Report

Fundraising

Children’s Scrapstore’s approach to fundraising is carried out with the objective of raising funds to support core work. All fundraising is carried out through recognised funds or trusts and the charity does not approach the public for any fundraising purposes, nor does it work with any commercial participators or professional fundraisers. As a result, no complaints from the public have been documented.

Membership

Membership is open to any groups or individuals working or volunteering with a group of children, young people or adults in a creative, play, care, educational, therapeutic or community setting.

Our membership includes playgroups, nurseries, crèches, parent and toddler groups, resources and activities centres, cubs, scouts, guides, brownies, beavers, woodcraft folk, city farms, adventure playgrounds, hospitals, arts, environmental, care homes, theatre groups, schools, universities and colleges.

Many of our members have limited budgets and rely heavily on the value for money resources that Children’s Scrapstore provide. The resources range from off-cuts of paper, card, wood, fabrics and hot air balloon material, to plastic trays, boxes and empty tins.

Future developments and sustainability

Primarily our charitable activities focus on the encouragement of play and creative activities and are undertaken to further our charitable objects for the public benefit. We play a strategic role in Reuse, Art and Play both locally and nationally. We have spent time this year building infrastructure support in these three sectors. We continue to build and develop partnerships and act as a focus for local and regional organisations and leaders in these sectors.

Our sustainability in terms of skills, resources and financial stability continues to be at the forefront of our developments. Successful rebuilding after the impact of the pandemic continues to be a focus. Services developed as our emergency pandemic response have given the charity new connections, and the viable elements of this will continue to be developed.

Main objectives for the year and strategies for achieving those objectives

Ensure that all of our pre covid services are back up and running and embedded sustainably with the existing staff team

Reintroduce services at pre-pandemic levels

All services are back running at a slightly reduced level compared to pre-pandemic. We will continue to increase capacity as we are able to and there is sufficient demand and need.

We are aiming to build a solid foundation through gradual growth of our tried and tested services before we develop anything new.

Improve our ability to demonstrate impact though collecting/collating and using data

We have plans in place for 2023-2024 and in 2022/2023 will design the systems to capture data in ways that suit our operations and capacity

Trustees' Report

Improve our presence with clear consistent joined up messaging with our three areas, ReUSE, ART and PLAY

Family Arts Network

We will support the Family Arts Campaign to adapt to the emerging landscape following the pandemic. Supporting the submission of a continuation funding bid to the Arts Council for the Ambassador program using what we have learnt from rebuilding the Family Arts Network.

To continuously improve our internal systems and process, making them clear and practical

improve organisational systems and processes

We are continuing to improve our systems and processes for all building maintenance and operational requirements throughout the organisation. We have continued to find specialists where we felt their knowledge would enhance our skills and understanding. One of our biggest areas for improvements this year is strategic planning and how that filters up and down through the organisation. Strategic plans have been put in place for the two years 2022/2023 and 2023/2024 and these are monitored by the senior leadership team on a monthly and quarterly basis.

Partnership and collaborations including supporting sector infrastructure

Sustainable Play

As a major delivery partner on the Lottery funded Sustainable Play Project, we have and will continue to develop play provision in Lawrence Weston and Frome Vale. We lead the training consultancy element of this project in partnership with Bristol Association for Neighbourhood Daycare, and we play a strategic lead role in the project with alongside Learning Partnership West.

Local Partnerships

We recognise the power of working in partnership in terms of delivering effective local services in cost effective ways, and have and will continue to develop new partnerships by attending new network meetings. Where we find synergy, we will take time to explore ways of working together, including offering generous leadership to cross-sector panels and steering groups.

Holiday Activity and Food Programme

We have been an integral part of the planning project team for this fund and we are going to continue to support this strategic role, as well as deliver play sessions including food and the production of activity packs for children who cannot attend play sessions.

To build a stable financial base from which we can grow in the following 5 years

Building maintenance and development

We will continue to maintain the building and begin plans for major improvements, which will involve building contractors and the possibility of additional funding needs.

Trustees' Report

Survival of the Charity post pandemic

Strategic and Financial planning has enabled the charity to resume usual services and operations. Additional staff have been employed to ensure effective operations. We kept a careful eye on uptake of services and footfall to ensure our resources met the needs of the charity and demands from members and customers. Cash flow has remained positive throughout the year.

Online shop

We have continued to support an online shop which although not a major part of our income, provides a valuable service to some of our customers especially those requiring delivery of shop goods.

Support for our Membership

We have maintained the membership price at pre-pandemic level and been able to continue with the members 20% discount on shop goods.

The introduction of the Supporter Plus Card has been an excellent way of been able to engage new people who would not otherwise be eligible for our standard memberships and who require a reduced amount of scrap.

Funded projects

We have continued to build our relationships with new funders, supporters and partners. This has led to the continued development of some of the services which started as responses to the pandemic.

Local sector engagement

We developed the role of Playful Bristol Coordinator, which involves promoting the benefits of what the sector can bring to the city. As a result we have been successfully involved with: Transition to Family Hubs

Holiday Activity and Food Programme Children and Young People One City Board The Bristol Community Youth Action (BYCA) board Play England

Volunteers

We have maintained a brilliant group of regular volunteers who have become a valued resource for the organisation. We will continue to develop a small volunteers programme.

Investment performance

Surplus short-term funds are held in an interest-bearing deposit account, on which small levels of income were received.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Transactions and financial position

The Trustees consider the financial performance during the year.

The accounts are set out on pages 13 - 37. The accounts have been prepared implementing the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standards 102 issued by the Charity Commission for England and Wales (effective 1 January 2019).

The total at the foot of the Balance Sheet shows the total reserves at the year end.

Page 7

Children's Scrapstore

Trustees' Report

Policies on reserves

The policy is to maintain reserves at the level necessary to sustain the planned activities of the charity.

The accounting policies (Note l) sets out the funds being operated and their respective applications.

The Designated fund is maintained at a level equivalent to the investment in the freehold property less the mortgage. This is held within the building and forms the basis of Scrapstore’s stability and flexibility.

The General fund accumulated surplus is intended to be raised to a level equal to between 3 and 6 months of the resources expended. At this level the Trustees feel that they would be able to continue the current activities of the charity in the event of a significant drop in funding.

However, the General fund as at 31 March 2022 was 371,310 (2021 - £297,207 as restated), which represented more than the level of 3 months of core opening expenses it is the Trustees’ policy to retain. The Trustees’ long term plan is to remain at this level.

Restricted funds , if any, are spent in line with the donor’s wishes or funder’s agreements as soon as possible.

Principal funding sources

Funding is via membership fees, trading arm surplus, events, donations for scrap, sales of PlayPods, Play Services and grants. During this year there was a greater reliance on grant funding due to some of our funding sources being paused.

Investment policy and objectives

The Trustees have wide powers of investment. Surplus short-term funds are held in an interest bearing deposit account.

Availability and adequacy of assets of each of the funds

The board of Trustees is satisfied that the charity’s assets in each fund are available and adequate to fulfil its obligations in respect of each fund.

Changes in fixed assets

Changes in fixed assets are shown in detail in note 12 to the accounts. There has been capital expenditure of £15,745 this year, and the assets continue to be repaired and maintained as and when necessary.

Governance:

The board of Trustee provide strategic governance of the charity and adhere to all legal and statutory obligations as well as Charity Commission guidance.

Statement regarding disclosure to our Independent Examiners

In so far as the Trustees are aware at the time of approving our Trustees’ annual report: - there is no relevant information, being information needed by the independent examiner in connection with preparing their report, of which the group’s independent examiner is unaware; and - the Trustees have taken all steps they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant information and to establish that the independent examiner is aware of that information.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2022

1 Accounting policies

Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

Statement of compliance

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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)) (issued in October 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

Basis of preparation

Children's Scrapstore meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes.

Page 16

Children's Scrapstore

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2022

Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements consolidate the financial statements of the charity and its subsidiary undertakings drawn up to 31 March 2022.

No statement of financial activities is presented for the charity as permitted by section 408 of the Companies Act 2006. The charity made a surplus for the financial year of £101,321 (2021 - £238,583).

A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the charity. Control is achieved where the charity has the power to govern the financial and operating policies of an entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.

The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the statement of financial activities from the effective date of acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate. Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies into line with those used by the group.

The purchase method of accounting is used to account for business combinations that result in the acquisition of subsidiaries by the group. The cost of a business combination is measured as the fair value of the assets given, equity instruments issued and liabilities incurred or assumed at the date of exchange, plus costs directly attributable to the business combination. Identifiable assets acquired and liabilities and contingent liabilities assumed in a business combination are measured initially at their fair values at the acquisition date. Any excess of the cost of the business combination over the acquirer’s interest in the net fair value of the identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities recognised is recorded as goodwill.

Inter-company transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between the company and its subsidiaries, which are related parties, are eliminated in full.

Intra-group losses are also eliminated but may indicate an impairment that requires recognition in the consolidated financial statements.

Accounting policies of subsidiaries have been changed where necessary to ensure consistency with the policies adopted by the group. Non-controlling interests in the net assets of consolidated subsidiaries are identified separately from the group’s equity therein. Non-controlling interests consist of the amount of those interests at the date of the original business combination and the non-controlling shareholder’s share of changes in equity since the date of the combination. Total comprehensive income is attributed to non-controlling interests even if this results in the non-controlling interests having a deficit balance.

Going Concern

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future despite the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic, energy and cost of living increases. Thus the trustees have continued to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

Income and endowments

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

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2022

Donations and legacies

Donations are recognised when the charity has been notified in writing of both the amount and settlement date. In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of performance by the charity before the charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the charity and it is probable that these conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period.

Deferred income

Deferred income represents amounts received for future periods and is released to incoming resources in the period for which it relates. Such income is only deferred when:

Expenditure

All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs.

All resources expended are inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.

Raising funds

These are costs incurred in attracting voluntary income, the management of investments and those incurred in trading activities that raise funds.

Charitable activities

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.

Support costs

Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Governance costs

These include the costs attributable to the charity’s compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements, including the independent examination, strategic management and trustees meetings and reimbursed expenses.

Irrecoverable VAT

Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the category of resources expended for which it was incurred.

Taxation

The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.

Tangible fixed assets

Individual fixed assets costing £250 or more are initially recorded at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation and amortisation

Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows:

Asset class Depreciation method and rate
Land and buildings 2% straight line on buildings. No
depreciation on land.
Furniture and equipment 25% straight line
Motor vehicles 25% straight line
Website development 25% straight line
Improvements to property 2% straight line

Impairment of fixed assets

Property, plant and equipment and investments in subsidiaries are tested for impairment whenever there is an indication that the assets may be impaired. The difference between the carrying amount and their recoverable amount is recognised as an impairment loss and charged as an expense.

Stock

Stock is valued at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell, after due regard for obsolete and slow moving stocks. Cost is determined using the Average Cost method (AVCO). Net realisable value is based on selling price less anticipated costs to completion and selling costs.

There is a volume of low value items held as stock that have been donated for resale or distribution that are not included in the financial statements as they are not individually priced, but acquired as a donation to the charity which is not establised until the time of the transaction.

Trade debtors

Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business.

Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the charity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2022

Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

Trade creditors

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the charity does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities.

Trade creditors are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Borrowings

Interest-bearing borrowings are initially recorded at fair value, net of transaction costs. Interest-bearing borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost, with the difference between the proceeds, net of transaction costs, and the amount due on redemption being recognised as a charge to the Statement of Financial Activities over the period of the relevant borrowing. Interest expense is recognised on the basis of the effective interest method and is included in interest payable and similar charges.

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the charity has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date.

Fund structure

Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the group.

Restricted income funds are those donated for use in a particular area or for specific purposes, the use of which is restricted to that area or purpose.

Pensions and other post retirement obligations

The charity operates a defined contribution scheme for employees and the costs charged in the financial statements represent the contributions payable by the charity during the year.

Financial instruments

Classification

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the charity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the Group after deducting all of its liabilities.

Page 20

Children's Scrapstore

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2022

Recognition and measurement

All financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at transaction price (including transaction costs), except for those financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss, which are initially measured at fair value (which is normally the transaction price excluding transaction costs), unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction. If an arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, the financial asset or financial liability is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are only offset in the statement of financial position when, and only when there exists a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and the group intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Financial assets are derecognised when and only when a) the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or are settled, b) the group transfers to another party substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, or c) the group, despite having retained some, but not all, significant risks and rewards of ownership, has transferred control of the asset to another party.

Financial liabilities are derecognised only when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires.

Investments

Investments in non-convertible preference shares and non-puttable ordinary or preference shares (where shares are publicly traded or their fair value is reliably measurable) are measured at fair value through profit or loss. Where fair value cannot be measured reliably, investments are measured at cost less impairment.

Investments in subsidiaries and associates are measured at cost less impairment. For investments in subsidiaries acquired for consideration including the issue of shares qualifying for merger relief, cost is measured by reference to the nominal value of the shares issued plus fair value of other consideration. Any premium is ignored.
