ORTON LONGUEVILLE PLAYGROUP
TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022
The Orton Longueville Playgroup is constituted by Deed of Trust and is a registered charity, number 1015208. Its address is at Woodside Lodge, Oundle Road, Orton Longueville, Peterborough, PE2 7EA.
The Trustees during the year to 31 July 2022 were:
Mrs C Izod Chair Mrs E Atkins resigned 22 February 2022 Mrs J Barks resigned 1 February 2022 Mrs C Carter Mrs L Cook Mrs E Ferriggi Mrs H Frank Miss R Jones Mrs B Liguori Mr N Page Miss E Sawyer * resigning at AGM Mrs S Warby * resigning at AGM
The main objective of the charity remains to enhance the development and education of children under statutory school age. We keep in mind the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit whilst planning our activities at trustee meetings. We aim to provide a safe, secure, stimulating, caring, environment which is sensitive to the needs of the children and to include parents, families and carers in a community based group. This benefits the children attending our setting by extending their learning through a variety of experiences and developing their social skills with other children and adults.
Once again the vast majority of the playgroup’s funds continue to come from the Government Nursery Grant for 3 and 4 year olds. The figure for this year was £160,250 compared to £153,934 last year. This year started off with slightly higher numbers on the register than in the previous couple of years as the effects of COVID subsided and the threat of closure reduced. Numbers have continued to improve and our income is now back at pre covid levels. We appointed a new Manager in November 2021 and have recruited new staff to replace outgoing ones. We were inspected by Ofsted in May 2022 and were extremely pleased to be judged outstanding for the third time running.
The trustees have assessed the major risks which the charity faces and confirm that systems have been established to enable regular reviews to mitigate these risks.
The trustees policy is to aim to hold 3 months reserves. This is an ideal that we continue to aim for. We continue to actively promote the Playgroup in the community and we are looking like filling up quickly in the coming year so expect our income levels to be maintained. Our expenses have increased especially in terms of wages due minimum wage and National Insurance increases. We expect this to increase again next year as well as other running costs that are slowly increasing. We aren’t affected by the energy costs rising at this point as we are still waiting for the Lease to be agreed but this is something we are aware could be a factor in coming months. We feel the Playgroup is in a good financial position to continue to operate and to continue the improvement of the facilities

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF ORTON LONGUEVILLE PLAYGROUP
I report to the charity's trustees on my examination of the accounts of Orton Longueville Playgroup for the year ended 31 July 2022, which are set out on pages 4 to 11.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity trustees 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 charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
2 the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
3 the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022
ORTON LONGUEVILLE PLAYGROUP
1 Accounting policies
The accounts have been prepared on the historical cost basis of accounting. The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:
1.1 Basis of preparation
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland ("FRS 102"), Accounting and Reporting by Charities - the Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying FRS 102, the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice as it applies from 1 January 2015. The disclosure requirements of section 1A of FRS 102 have been applied other than where additional disclosures are required to show a true and fair view.
1.2 Public benefit
The charity 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 note.
1.3 Exemption from preparing cash flow statement
The charity has taken advantage of the exemption provided by FRS 102 and has not prepared a cash flow statement.
1.4 Income
All income is included in the Statement of Financial Activities in the year in which they are receivable, except for monies which are for specific periods crossing over the year end.
Income represents fees, SEN funding, fund-raising proceeds, uniform sales and other income receivable in the year.
1.5 Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT
Expenditure, including VAT, is recognised on the accruals basis.
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.
Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include the accountancy fees and costs linked to the strategic management of the charity.
1.6 Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the Bank.
