TRUSTEES’ REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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 financial statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).
OUR PURPOSE AND ACTIVITIES
Leaside is an outdoor activities centre on the River Lea in Hackney.
Our mission is to serve our local community, especially its young people, by providing opportunities for education, personal development, recreation and excellence in outdoor activities. We give young people choices, freedom and inspiration so that they can become active, responsible adults, whether as citizens in the community or as participants, instructors or champions at Leaside.
Our Aims are:
-
to contribute to the physical education of inner city youth, especially the economically and socially deprived;
-
to provide the framework for young people’s personal and social development;
-
to offer opportunities for outdoor and indoor pursuits to the whole local community; and
-
to provide a sports development continuum catering to all abilities.
Leaside is a young person driven centre. Our ethos and all our ideas and projects are firmly rooted in the realities, dreams and aspirations of young people. We harness the enthusiasm, commitment, spirit and energy of young people and reflect this back by providing a variety of programmes using an outdoor education framework. A main focus is the development of life skills and other transferable skills that enhance the life chances of the young person and community beyond sport. These include self esteem, self awareness, self-confidence and leadership skills.
Canoeing, Kayaking and Mountain Biking are the main activities we deliver within our local environment. We use these activities as a tool to engage with young people to enhance personal and social development within formal and informal educational settings. Our programme of work sees us engage with Schools, Youth and Community Groups, and through individual and group work with the young people who have joined Leaside as part of our youth provision.
Public benefit statement
In shaping our objectives for the year and planning our activities, the trustees have considered the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit, including the guidance ‘public benefit: running a charity (PD2). The achievements and activities above demonstrate the public benefit arising through the Charity’s activities.
Our volunteers
Our activities can only happen with the support of a range of able volunteers, committed to the ethos of Leaside. We offer these volunteers training to enhance the provision that Leaside delivers to its young people. This volunteering consists of support for general activities, special needs groups, off-site trips, mentoring of young people and general upkeep and maintenance of the centre. These volunteers have contributed hundreds of hours of support for which we are extremely grateful.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
- As of April 2020, the Trust lost 90% of its potential income due to the COVID-19 pandemic and enforced lockdown by the Government. It was agreed by the Chief Executive and Board of Trustees to implement monthly strategy meetings focusing on the survival of the Trust. The Finance Officer & Chief Executive were asked by the Trustees to formulate contingency plans ensuring that the Trust remained operational for its users.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE (Cont/d)
-
During this period, it was necessary to Furlough part of the staff team to ease the financial burden on the Trust.
-
During June, the Chief Executive and Trustee Sharon Freeman redeveloped Leaside’s online presence for its clients enabling them to book online safely ensuring that government COVID guidance was adhered to.
-
At this time, we had to decommission the changing room building due to them not being COVID safe. Users were asked to change in the car park.
-
Leaside adapted its activities to fit in with Government and British Canoeing guidance ensuring that our users young & old could participate.
-
It was agreed by the board that we would have a relaxation of Membership fees for those that we impacted by the economic crisis. This resulted in a 50% reduction in membership fees.
-
Due to grant funding from LBH Non-Domestic Rates (£25k) and Sports England (£9.6k) we were able to partially open during the summer months.
-
Under the National Youth Agency guidelines of working with young people during the pandemic, we were able to extend our programme into the weekdays. This work proved to be vital in the health and wellbeing of our young members and provided respite for their parents/guardians at a very stressful time.
-
During the summer holidays, the restrictions were relaxed by the government which enabled us to run a Summer programme. All sessions were fully booked, and we engaged with 1500 young people throughout the holidays.
-
The addition of a new Family club was implemented at request of the local community. These were run on Sunday afternoons and every session was fully attended and we engaged with 600 family members.
-
We facilitated Urswick School to build and install an Art Shack enabling a local artist, Alex McKenzie, to create a sculpture which would be installed in the school grounds.
-
From the autumn term, and due to the government restrictions on leisure centres, Leaside was able to provide a COVID safe sports arena for pupils at a local school. This was 5 days, and up to 10 sessions a week booking, staffed by their teachers.
-
Due to the inability to use the changing rooms, the Trust could not maintain it’s regular winter outdoor programme because of health & safety issues. With our previous success combining outdoor sports and the arts, the Chief Executive took the opportunity to create an alternative project culminating in the Leaside Lights Festival. From November 20 to March 21, Leaside embarked on a creative programme working with a local artist, technicians form the performing arts industry working alongside our young people to create a performance on the water using lights, music & dance. The performance was live streamed on our social media platforms and a short film documentary was created to evidence the work undertaken.
-
During this period, our members and volunteers installed 40 tonnes of topsoil and 250 square meters of turf forming and maximising the new space by the boat store and outdoor classroom area. This was back breaking work, but the results are amazing.

THE LEASIDE TRUST
I report on the financial statements of the charitable company for the year ended 31 March 2021.
This report is made solely to the charity's trustees, as a body, in accordance with the Charities Act 2011. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the charity's trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an independent examiner’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity's trustees as a body, for my Independent Examination, for this report, or for the opinions I have formed.
Respective responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity’s trustees of the Company (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law), you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (“the 2006 Act”).
Having satisfied myself that the financial statements of the charitable company are not required to be audited for this year under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity’s financial statements 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 material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that:
-
accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; or
-
the financial statements do not accord with such records; or
-
the financial statements do not comply with relevant accounting requirements under section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 other than any requirement that the financial statements give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
-
the financial statements have not been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS102).
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 financial statements to be reached.

THE LEASIDE TRUST
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) ‘Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their financial statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)’, Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland’ and the Companies Act 2006.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the Charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s).
1.2 Preparation of financial statements on a going concern basis
The Charity’s Financial Statements show a net surplus of £51,589 (2020 - £42,323) for the year and free reserves of £113,721 (2020 - £34,171) as at the year end. The trustees are of the view that these results have secured the immediate future of the Charity for the next 12 to 18 months and on this basis the Charity is a going concern.
1.3 Income recognition
All income is included in the statement of financial activities when the charity is legally entitled to it, receipt is probable and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability.
Grant income
Grants are credited to the statement of financial activities when the charity is entitled to the funds. Income is only deferred where there are time constraints imposed by the donor or if the funding is performance related.
Where entitlement to grants receivable is dependent upon fulfilment of conditions within the charity’s control, the income is recognised when there is sufficient evidence that conditions will be met.
Grants supporting the core activities of the charity and with no specific restrictions placed upon their use are included within donations and legacies. Grants that have specific restrictions placed upon their use are included within income from charitable activities.
Capital grants for the purchase of fixed assets are credited to restricted incoming resources on the earlier date of when they are received or receivable. Deprecation on the related fixed assets is charged against the restricted fund.
Donations and legacies
Donations are recognised in the period in which they are received. Legacy income is recognised when the charity’s entitlement is judged to be probable and where the amount can be reliably measured.
Contract income
Income from charitable activities include income recognised as earned (as the related goods and services are provided) under contract.
Room hire and service change income
Room hire and service charge income are credited to income in the year in which they are receivable.

THE LEASIDE TRUST
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Cont/d)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
1.4 Volunteers and donated services and facilities
Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), the general volunteer time is not recognised and refers to the trustees’ annual report for more information about their contribution.
On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.
1.5 Expenditure recognition and irrecoverable VAT
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:
-
(a) Cost of raising funds comprises costs of seeking new funding, and costs relating to premises hire and their associated support costs.
-
(b) Expenditure on charitable activities include expenditure associated with the main objectives of the Charity and include both directs costs and their associated support costs.
Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.
1.6 Allocation of support costs
Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include back office costs, finance, personnel, payroll and governance costs which support the charity’s programmes and activities. These costs have been allocated between cost of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities. The basis on which support costs have been allocated are set out in note 6.
1.7 Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of charity.
Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the charity’s work or for specific projects being undertaken by the charity.
1.8 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Individual fixed assets costing £500 or more are capitalised at cost. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost or valuation of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful life on the following basis:
| Leasehold property | - | Over 40 years |
|---|---|---|
| Boat storage | - | Over 18 years |
| Furniture and equipment | - | 20% per annum on cost |
| Motor vehicles | - | 20% per annum on cost |
1.9 Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
12
THE LEASIDE TRUST
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Cont/d)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
1.10 Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term cash deposits.
1.11 Creditors and provisions
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
1.12 Financial instruments
The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
1.13 Taxation
The charity is a registered charity and, therefore, is not liable for Income Tax or Corporation Tax on income derived from its charitable activities, as it falls within the various exemptions available to registered charities.
1.14 Judgement and key sources of estimation uncertainty
In the application of the company’s accounting policies, the charity is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underling assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
1.15 Pension
The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the company in an independently administered fund. The pension cost charge represents contributions payable by the charity to the fund. The charity has no liability under the scheme other than for the payment of those contributions.
1.16 Cash flow statement
The charitable company qualifies as a small company and advantage has been taken of the exemption provided by SORP (FRS 102), not to prepare a cash flow statement.
