## **Treasurers Report 2020 - 21** 

Unfortunately All Saints pre-school were devastated by an arson attack August bank holiday 2019 just a few days before we were due to open for the new term, our rented premises at Olicanian Cricket Club on Denton Road were completely raised to the ground, leaving All Saints Pre-school and OCC homeless! we suffered catastrophic loses of just about everything we owned, thankfully a shed at the rear was saved by the firefighters attending the scene, which held much of our day to day equipment including some basic furniture. 

The committee called an extraordinary meeting the following day we were inundated with offers of help and resources from the local community and within hours were viewing new premises. Little Lane Children's Centre being one of those offers, therefore being purposely built for childcare and having some furniture and resources we gladly accepted and with the dedication and resourcefulness of our manager, staff, and committee we were registered and ready to open our doors just two weeks later. Parents and members of the public rallied together with numerous donations of toys to enable us to provide a welcoming space to our returning children. 

Thankfully, we were well insured with PLA and Sun Alliance were quick to pay out an interim payment early September 2019 of £10,000 to help us get back on our feet and start replacing our much-needed equipment and resources, followed by an additional £6314 by October. The rest of our insurance took us longer to negotiate and with the help of our Manager and a parent we received an additional and final settlement of £9300 in December 2020. £3000 of this being for the lost shed at OCC and earmarked to replace our outdoor storage with a safe and secure container to be purchased shortly, having received permission from the Manager of Little Lane Children Centre. The additional £6300 was for business interruption we suffered during the two weeks delay it took us to reopen and the loss of a few children moving to alternative childcare during this time. 

March 2020 brought Pre-school further hardship with the onset of Covid 19 and complete lockdown for 3 months until we could reopen to keyworkers children June 2020 during this time some staff were furloughed, and we were able to help pay staff wages with the HMRC Job retention scheme and continued financial support from Bradford council NEF funding. We were also unable to run our successful Summer and Adventure camps during August 2020 due to lockdown, which was a huge loss to current and past parents and children during the long summer holidays. 

We were fortunately awarded Government Covid grants September 2020 initially of £6000 with a top up £4000 along with a further £15,000 discretional grant totalling £25,000 which has been a lifeline to secure the future of pre-school going forward and taking us out of this pandemic. 

During this year All Saints Pre School have continued to run throughout the Covid pandemic, shouldering the impact of staff shortages due to Covid isolations with only one closure post year end impacting the 21-22 financial year (closure Tuesday 23[rd] November to Monday 29[th] November 2021 all fees reimbursed to fee paying parents as per our ‘Covid 19 Fees policy’). 

Preschool have been able to replenish much needed resources thankfully after the fire at OCC due

to our insurance payouts and still have carefully managed allocated ‘pockets’ of insurance funds available to sustain us through the next financial year ie. £5,000 balance for resources £3,000 for outdoor improvements/storage plus £6,300 business interruption which has been allocated to our ‘Covid pot’ to help sustain pre school to the end of the pandemic. 

## **Financial Review:** 

The accounts for 2020/21 show our income for this period being £100,874 this figure includes £25,000 Covid grants.  Our expenditure for the year £88,154 giving us an overall surplus of £12,720.  This clearly shows how crucial the Covid grant has been in sustaining pre school during this difficult time.  With a balance in unrestricted reserves of £84,499 that should see the pre school through the next financial year. 

The charities finances continue to be sound with more than adequate reserves to meet current and foreseeable expenditure during the ongoing pandemic .

## **Accountants Report** 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

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 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act, 

- to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and 

- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of Independent Examiner’s Statement** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with 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 the 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. 

## **Independent Examiner's Statement** 

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

1.   which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements: 

- to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and 

- to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act have not been met; or 

2.   to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
