| Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole. |
Para 1.20 | The team continue to work hard to provide a sustainable and nurturing environment for all children who attend despite significant changes mid-year linked to government funding and free child care entitlement for working families and a change in leadership structure within the year. 2024/25 has been another successful year with all spaces filled which has helped continue to maintain and drive financial sustainability for the preschool, despite pressures of rising costs and changes mentioned above. Woodley preschool has been the receiver of individual additional grants from HCC and has had a positive year for fundraising via various activities such as: Christmas Fair (with raffle and stalls) Spring Wheelathon and teatowels (fundraiser). The money from fundraising and the additional grants has helped maintain general supplies and resources that the children use on a daily basis as well as providing many opportunities throughout the year such as: Activities through the year, like: a farm visit, a magician, sports workshops and jiggly wrigglers session. |

Financial Review
| Review of the charity’s financial position at the end of the period |
Para 1.21 | This financial year the pre-school has been successful in making a profit largely linked to the ongoing policies / actions taken in the previous year to drive higher attendance including: Allowing children to join the pre- school in the final term (not typical under previous management) Reducing the number of settling in sessions from 3 to 1 to reduce number of free hours and increase number of paid/funded hours Increasing the number of key children per staff member from 6 to 9, reducing number of staff required per session (still within legal requirements) |
|---|---|---|
| Statement explaining the policy for holding reserves stating why they are held |
Para 1.22 | The aim of trustees is to build up enough reserves for 6 months of costs as well as to set aside enough funds to cover staff redundancies if the preschool were forced to close. |
| Amount of reserves held | Para 1.22 | £63,888 |
| Reasons for holding zero reserves |
Para 1.22 | None |
| Details of fund materially in deficit |
Para 1.24 | None |
| Explanation of any uncertainties about the charity continuing as a going concern |
Para 1.23 | The primary concern going forwards is the change to government funding and increases to free child care entitlement. Paired with this, continued cost increases including NLW and employers NI will have an impact on the preschools ability to maintain a profit going forwards. There has also been additional significance surrounding early year settings only charging for specific items/consumables. So the fees payable has been reviewed inline with policy. |

Para 1.51 | The majority of our trustees come from the parents of the children attending the preschool. These are voted in each year at the AGM and have to be re-elected for any additional years. In addition to the parents the committee may vote on other individuals with relevant skills. These are also elected at the AGM. All trustees are DBS checked before they can work on the committee. The charity is also a member of the Pre- School Learning Alliance who help advise on governance issues. The main risk to the charity is going concern. This is impacted by not attracting enough children to attend or changes in legislation restricting or removing the grants for 3 to 5 year olds. We feel this risk is covered through our strong reputation in the local area and links with the infant school we share a site with. The second risk is not meeting the laws and regulations associated with running a pre-school. We have experienced staff who keep up to date with all the latest changes in laws and regulations and ensure we adhere to these. |

Note 2 Accounting policies 2.2 INCOME
This standard list of accounting policies has been applied by the charity except for those ticked "No" or "N/a". Where a different or additional policy has been adopted then this is detailed in the box below.
| Recognition of income Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as income with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate heading in the SOFA. The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be the fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on receipt. In the reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised as an expense at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution. Donated services and facilities Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of the gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably. Income from interest, royalties and dividends This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can be measured reliably. Income from membership subscriptions Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in Donations and Legacies. Membership subscriptions which gives a member the right to buy services or other benefits are recognised as income earned from the provision of goods and services as income from charitable activities. These 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. Donated goods Contractual income and performance related grants Offsetting There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required or permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102. Grants and donations Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP). This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or services or met the performance related conditions. Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be exchanged) unless impractical to do so. In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent that the charity has provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP). Legacies Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the charity or have been met. Government grants The charity has received government grants in the reporting period Tax reclaims on donations and gifts Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor. Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the terms of the appeal have specified otherwise. Settlement of insurance claims Insurance claims are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP) and are included as an item of other income in the SoFA. Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations when receivable. Support costs The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs. Volunteer help Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income from other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance sheet. On its sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading activities' and the proceeds from sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading activities'. Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets and included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable. The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustees’ annual report. |

| 2.4 ASSETS £25 Intangible fixed assets Heritage assets Current asset investments The charity has has investments which it holds for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a maturity date less than one year. These include cash on deposit and cash equivalents with a maturity date of less than one year held for investment purposes rather than to meet short term cash commitments as they fall due. Debtors Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity. Subsequently, they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received. Stocks and work in progress Stocks held for sale as part of non-charitable trade are measured at the lower or cost or net realisable value. Goods or services provided as part of a charitable activity are measured at net realisable value based on the service potential provided by items of stock. Work in progress is valued at cost less any foreseeable loss that is likely to occur on the contract. Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage. They are valued at cost. Investments Fixed asset investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are valued at initially at cost and subsequently at fair value (their market value) at the year end. The same treatment is applied to unlisted investments unless fair value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investments held for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a maturity date of less than 1 year are treated as current asset investments Grants with performance conditions Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output. Grants payable without performance conditions Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity to realistically avoid the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must be recognised. The charity has intangible fixed assets, that is, non-monetary assets that do not have physical substance but are identifiable and are controlled by the charity through custody or legal rights. The amortisation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 9.5 They are valued at cost. The charity has heritage assets, that is, non-monetary assets with historic, artistic, scientific, technological, geophysical or environmental qualities that are held and maintained principally for their contribution to knowledge and culture. The depreciation rates and methods used as disclosed in note 9.6.1.4. This includes any realised or unrealised gains or losses on the sale of investments and any gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the year. 2.3 EXPENDITURE AND LIABILITIES Liability recognition Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty. Investment gains and losses The charity accounts for basic financial instruments on initial recognition as per paragraph 10.7 FRS102 SORP. Subsequent measurement is as per paragraphs 11.17 to 11.19, FRS102 SORP. Tangible fixed assets for use by charity The depreciation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 9.2. Governance and support costs Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support. Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice. They are valued at cost. These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least Redundancy cost The charity made no redundancy payments during the reporting period. Deferred income No material item of deferred income has been included in the accounts. Creditors The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts Provisions for liabilities A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date Basic financial instruments |

Please give details of why remuneration or other employment benefits were paid.
After a review of the pre-schools governing document it was determined 5 trustees were required. As such Vicky and Stacey (both managers of the pre-school), volunteered to be additional trustees to make up the required number as there was no further interest from other parents or the local community to join as trustees. Neither Vicky or Stacey hold key roles within the trustees (they are not chair, secretary or treasurer). Payment made to Vicky and Stacey is in relation to their management ativities of the pre-school and not linked to their roles as trustees. All remuneration and pensions paid this year would have been paid regardless of their trustee status. Vicky left in April 2025
Where an ex gratia payment has been made to a trustee, provide an explanation of the nature of the payment.
