Fundraising contributed to £1534.05. 

Further outstanding fees and payments not deposited before July 31[st] 2022 will appear in next year’s accounts. 

**Total expenditure for this year** : £78,783.58  compared to last year of £73,413.52. The major expenditure components were £64,585.28 on employee costs , £480on 6 sessions from sporty stars, £300 on chick hatching, £470 on 2 x animal encounters sessions, £154 on Jubilee medals, £2000 on rent to the parish council, £731 staff coats and uniform & £2,335.30 repairs and renewal. 

## **Equipment: Total expenditure on major assets was:** £150 soft play equipment 

**Operating profit/loss:** For this financial year we have an operating profit of £218.40 compared to last years £10,334.48 operating profit . was due to a reduction in child numbers at the setting as well as staff pay increases and paying rent to the parish council again. 

**Overview:** Despite numerous challenges due to lower intake numbers, Kennford Playbox has remained in a stable position this year. Our overheads were £5376.36 more than the previous year. Staff costs increased in the new tax year in line with the minimum wage and was £2304.65 more than the previous year. 

***Fees:** Devon County Council Funding for 2 year olds increased by 20p per hour to £5.24 in April 2022 . 3 & 4 year olds funding increased from £4.16 to £4.30 in April 2022.  The total income for this year was down by £4739.72 due to lower child numbers, however playbox did receive a student placement grant of £1000 and a SSP grant of £269.78 which helped balance the books. 

**Fundraising and Donations:** A total of £1534.05 was raised by fundraising events throughout the year such as the Christmas 2021 party, Christmas raffle, Halloween party, photos, end of term party and sponsored jump.   The money raised has helped to pay for our nonessential activities such as our egg hatching program and animal encounters and sporty stars sessions. 



Public 

**Redundancy:** The staff redundancy provision in the event of playbox closing is recalculated at the end of each financial year to calculate redundancy as well as sufficient notice period for each member of staff. The end of year balance for this account was £20,877.31 

**Comments :** We are pleased that our forecasting of a large loss for this year has not been the case. Although numbers are currently down on that of last year, it is anticipated that the forecast increase in birth rates for subsequent years and the new housing local to the village that is being built will enable future years accounts to break even. Fundraising will need to be increased to provide further income to support future wage increases and purchasing of new IT equipment.

The Trustees of Kennford Playbox

## Dear Trustees 

I report on the accounts of the Trust for the accounting period 1[st] August 2021 to 31[st] July 2022, which are attached with this report. 

The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts.  The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination in needed. 

It is my responsibility to: 

- Examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; 

- To follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and 

- To state whether matters have come to my attention. 

Basis of independent examiner’s report 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the general directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records.  It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters.  The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. 

1 



## **Independent examiner’s statement** 

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention which gives me cause for concern that in any material respect the requirements have not been met in the following areas: 

- to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act: and 

- to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act. 

There were no material errors identified in the accounts that need to be brought to the attention of the Trustees.  The year-end Treasurer’s report was a good addition to the accounting records and provides transparency. 

Kennford Playbox have appointed a bookkeeper since the previous independent examiner’s review, which has provided stability and continuity in the bookkeeping process using “Sage One”.  In meeting with the bookkeeper as part of this review, she highlighted an issue with historic PAYE reconciliation which has resulted in the Playbox overpaying PAYE.  This has been addressed during the year by making reduced payments to the HMRC.  The bookkeeper has had to make a series of journal entries in the accounts to correct the PAYE control account.  This too has been resolved, with all nominals now being correct and fully reconciled at year end. 

If you have any questions on the above, or on the accounts, please do not hesitate to contact me. 

Yours sincerely 

Alexis Saffin
