**Page 2** 

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the period 1 August 2020 to 31 July 2021. 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 (FR$ 102) (effective 1 January 2015). 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Objectives and aims** 

The charity's principal object is the provision of a preschool for children under the age of five. **Significant activities** The charity has continued to develop and educate children primarily under the statutory school age. It has encouraged parents to understand and provide for the needs of their children and has offered play facilities and training courses. It has continued to further the aims of the Pre School Learning Alliance in its activities, **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Charitable activities** 

The trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit. This guidance is considered when reviewing the aims and objectives and in planning future activities for the year. The focus of our activities continues to be the provision of childcare for children under the age of five. 

The charity is open for 38 weeks per year, term time only and has achieved some online fundraising during the pandemic to help keep the pre-school open and be sustainable for the foreseeable future.  The Pre-school was able to use some of the fundraising to update tired equipment within the setting.  There was a highly successful fundraiser during the winter which allowed the Pre-School to update its garden area with a large play bench so the children were able to utilise more of the outside space.  The charity also helps the community by staying sustainable and serving over 100 families in any one year, giving parents continuity by keeping staff and not having a high turnover. This keeps the charity parent and child friendly for all who use the services. 

The charity run playgroup currently has 49 children aged three to five years old on roll. This is set to increase to 51 in June 2021. The current waiting list is to autumn term 2023. The results for the year are set out on pages 4 and 5. 

The trustees have revie _w_ ed the transactions of the charity during the year and its financial position at the year end and consider them to be satisfactory, due to the current pandemic climate. The results are shown in detail in the attached statement of financial activities. **FINANCIAL REVIEW Reserves policy** The Charity holds three bank accounts and a 32 day account with Lloyds bank. The current account is used weekly and for all payments. The two savings accounts are used to hold excess funds received from fee income to be put into and used for major payments. Currently the Charity Together the 32 day account and savings account hold approx £45,000  which is estimated to cover the full cost of any redundancy payments if the Charity has to close its doors through lack of children or if the church was to close. **Going concern** The charity depends on the church being available to continue using the hall, therefore the charity supports the church by staying open as much as they support the charity. Due to the Pandemic the charity have had some concerns regarding our ability to open and serve the community, however this was based solely on government guidance. The charity noticed a drop in children attending for a short time, but  are already seeing a demand for spaces once more, so believe that this will be short lived and they will again see a steady increase in attendance once more.  The charity also depends on the waiting list which is always long and currently goes to autumn term 2023.  The charity **serves th** e community and is well thought of. Therefore, at present, the trustees have no concerns about closure. **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document** The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes an unincorporated charity. **Recruitment and appointment of new trustees** 

The current trustees and staff prepare new parents for the roles by talking about how we need them to be able to stay open, explaining their roles and responsibilities before our AGM takes place. All parents are invited to the meeting, with prior notice for those intended to step up to the committee to nominate themselves and make this known to the chair and manager.
