Keighley Community Transport

Trustees' report for the year ended 31 March 2022

Objectives and activities

The charity's objects

To promote any charitable purpose for the benefit of the community and in particular the relief of poverty,

sickness, old age, infirmity or distress, through the provision of a transportation service.

The charity's main activities

We provide minibus service for community groups, educational facilities and community sports groups.

Public benefit statement

In setting our objectives and planning our activities our Trustees have given serious consideration to the Charity

Commission’s general guidance on public benefit.

Achievements and performance

We have had a difficult year yet again, as I expect the majority of community groups/charities/businesses will

have had the same struggles.

We began to look at re-opening in September 2021, hoping that the schools would be back and that the other

groups would slowly find the confidence to come back. Unfortunately, this was a lot slower than we had

anticipated, the schools were still within a “lockdown” whereby they stayed indoors within their own bubbles.

So, the predicted return to use our transport was a lot slower. Many schools didn’t start to return to some sort

of normality until January 2022.

Whilst in the pandemic The Friends of Airedale decided that they were no longer going to provide ad hoc one to

one transport – this is transport using a car to help elderly/vulnerable people, who for whatever reason, cannot

use public transport to access their medical appointments. This service is/was a lifeline to many people living

on the outskirts of towns/villages within the catchment area of Airedale NHS Trust.

We decided to extend our services into this area and have now purchased a Peugeot Partner from Airedale

General Hospital (Friends of Airedale Hospital) which would enable us to help those in need. The hospital would

also point people in our direction whom may need our support. We are hoping to blend this individual service

into our current group service.

We would like to thank the volunteers who have still continued to give their time, and to all our customers who

have trust in us to provide our service.

Financial review

The net expenditure for the year was £23,566, including net expenditure of £17,107 on unrestricted funds and

net expenditure of £6,459 on restricted funds after transfers.

Reserves policy

The charity's free reserves, excluding fixed assets, at the year end were £69,135.

The reserves policy of the charity is to retain general reserves equivalent to at least 6 months worth of

expenditure in order to allow for temporary funding shortages. Any significant funds above this level are utilised

for the periodic renewal and refurbishment of the mini bus fleet.

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Keighley Community Transport

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2022, which are set out on pages 5 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 as carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act. 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 Charities Act; 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.

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 accounts

for the year ended 31 March 2022

1 Accounting policies

Basis of accounting

These accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by 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) and with the Charities Act 2011.

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The charity has changed its depreciation policy from 15% reducing balance to depreciating its equipment on a four year life basis. As a result additonal depreciation of £576 has been charged in the year ending 31 March 2022. There have been no other changes to the accounting policies since last year. No changes have been made to the accounts for previous years.

Going concern

The trustees are satisfied that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue.

Incoming resources

All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when the charity becomes entitled to the resources, it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources and the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.

Grants and donations

Grants and donations are only included in the SOFA when the charity has unconditional entitlement to the resources.

Where grants are related to performance and specific deliverables, they are accounted for as the charity earns the right to consideration by its performance.

Expenditure and liabilities

Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out the resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty.

Taxation

As a charity the organisation benefits from rates relief and is generally exempt from income tax and capital gains tax but not from VAT. Irrecoverable VAT is included in the cost of those items to which it relates.

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets costing more than £500 are capitalised and included at cost including any incidental expenses of acquisition. Gifted assets are shown at the value to the charity on receipt. Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets at rates calculated to write off the cost on a straight line basis over their expected useful economic lives as follows: Improvements to property: over 10 years Equipment: over 4 years Motor vehicles: over 4 years

Pensions

The charity operates a defined contribution scheme for the benefit of its employees. The costs of contributions are recognised in the year they are payable.

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2022, which are set out on pages 5 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').

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 Charities Act; 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.
