Trustees' Report

The trustees, who are directors for the purposes of company law, present the annual report together with the financial statements of the charitable company for the year ended 31 March 2021.

Objectives and activities

Objects and aims

The charity's principal objectives are:

To promote the benefit of the inhabitants of Willen, Willen Park and Bolbeck Park and the neighbourhood by associating together with the said inhabitants, the local authorities, voluntary and other organisations in a common effort to advance and to provide facilities in the interest of social welfare for recreation and leaisure-time occupation with the object of improving the conditions of life for the said inhabitants.

To establish, or secure the establishment of, a community centre and to maintain and manage the same (whether done or in co-operation with any local authority or other person or body) in furtherance of these objects.

Public benefit

The trustees confirm that they have complied with the requirements of section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission for England and Wales.

Achievements and performance

Due to restrictions imposed by government to deal with the Covid-19 pandemic, use of the hall and sports facilities was severely limited during the financial year. Hire of the hall to casual users ceased completely and only a small number of regular user groups contiued to use the facilities in accordance with government guidelines.

Financial review

Willen Pavilion generated a surplus for the year of £4,655 (2020: £3,592) which when added to accumulated funds brought forward, gives a total of £41,927 to be carried forward as general funds.

The results have been augmented by the receipt of a small business grant of £10,000 from Milton Keynes Council, which was made available as part of the government's financial suport for businesses impacted by the restrictions, as well as Job Retention Scheme grants of £3,645. The trustees consider that this support has been of great benefit in securing the financial position of the charity.

Policy on reserves

It is policy to maintain unrestricted reserves at a minimum level of approxmately 12 months of operating costs.

Plans for future periods

Aims and key objectives for future periods

In general terms the charity will look to continue to meet its objectives as stated.

For the future we hope to encourage more users and by using the feedback we receive to enhance the building to make it more appealing and user friendly to a variety of users.

Trustees' Report

Structure, governance and management

Nature of governing document

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.

Recruitment and appointment of trustees

New trustees are usually recruited from within the local community or from stakeholder groups such as regular users.

Induction and training of trustees

New trustees are inducted and trained in accordance with the Charity Commission's guidelines.

Arrangements for setting key management personnel remuneration

The remuneration of key management personnel is reviewed regularly by the committee of trustees and is determined by benchmarking against local living wage standards and the pay rates of similar employer's situated within the local area.

Organisational structure

The day to day running of Willen Pavilion is delegated to the management team which comprises two paid employees. The trustees meet regularly to review operations and to act as a forum for decision making. Any large or non-routine items of expenditure are always authorised by the trustees.

Important non-adjusting events after the financial period

Milton Keynes Council have informed the charity's trustees that they are taking steps to facilitate the disposal of the Pavilion building and grounds. Preliminary discussions have been held about how this will be carried out, and at this stage it appears the most likely outcome is for the asset to be transferred to the local parish council.

The timing and nature of any asset transfer is still uncertain, as is the charity's continuing involvement in managing the facilities should the transfer take place. The trustees remain hopeful that the management committee will be able to continue running the faciilties via the charity, and were given encouragement in this regard during initial discussions with representatives from both councils. However, it is also a possibility that the parish council may choose to use their own internal facilities team to run the Pavilion, which would then cast doubt over the charity's going concern status.

The annual report was approved by the trustees of the charity on .................... and signed on its behalf by:

......................................... Mr S Brunning Trustee

Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities

The trustees (who are also the directors of Willen Pavilion for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with the United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and applicable law and regulations.

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under company law the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charitable company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of Willen Pavilion

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021 which are set out on pages 6 to 14.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

As the charity’s trustees of Willen Pavilion (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (‘the 2006 Act’).

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of Willen Pavilion are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner’s statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of Willen Pavilion as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view' which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or

  4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities [applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)].

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2021

1 Charity status

The charity is limited by guarantee, incorporated in England and Wales (company registration number: 02651923), and consequently does not have share capital. Each of the trustees is liable to contribute an amount not exceeding £Nil towards the assets of the charity in the event of liquidation.

The address of its registered office is: 28 Portland Drive Willen Milton Keynes Buckinghamshire MK15 9JP

2 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) (effective 1 January 2015) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). They also comply with the Companies Act 2006 and Charities Act 2011.

Basis of preparation

Willen Pavilion 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.

Going concern

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern nor any significant areas of uncertainty that affect the carrying value of assets held by the charity.

Exemption from preparing a cash flow statement

The charity opted to early adopt Bulletin 1 published on 2 February 2016 and have therefore not included a cash flow statement in these financial statements.

Page 8

Willen Pavilion

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2021

Income and endowments

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.

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, for example, allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.

Governance costs

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

Government grants

Grants income is recognised in accordance with the performance model prescribed by FRS 102.

A grant that does not impose specified future performance-related conditions is recognised in income when the grant proceeds are receivable.

A grant that imposes specified future performance conditions is recognised in income only when the performance-related conditions are met.

Grants received before the revenue recognition criteria are satisfied are recognised as a liability.

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.

Willen Pavilion

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2021

Tangible fixed assets

Individual fixed assets 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

Equipment

Depreciation method and rate 20% on cost

Trade debtors

Trade debtors are amounts due from user groups for hire of the community centre and sports ground.

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.

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.

Fund structure

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

15 Non-adjusting events after the financial period

Milton Keynes Council have informed the charity's trustees that they are taking steps to facilitate the disposal of the Pavilion building and grounds. Preliminary discussions have been held about how this will be carried out, and at this stage it appears the most likely outcome is for the asset to be transferred to the local parish council.

The timing and nature of any asset transfer is still uncertain, as is the charity's continuing involvement in managing the facilities should the transfer take place. The trustees remain hopeful that the management committee will be able to continue running the faciilties via the charity, and were given encouragement in this regard during initial discussions with representatives from both councils. However, it is also a possibility that the parish council may choose to use their own internal facilities team to run the Pavilion, which would then cast doubt over the charity's going concern status.
