THE SELBY TRUST
TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTOR'S REPORT AND STRATEGIC REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
Vision
To sustain the Selby Centre as an asset of community benefit that enables people of many cultures to come forward as one community creating a place where they can move forward, fulfil their potential and make Tottenham a vibrant and diverse place to live and work.
Working with the London Borough of Haringey, local community and other stakeholders we will create an integrated, inclusive, healthy, sustainable, diverse, connected urban village.
Mission statement
Deliver a consolidated, new, sustainable, community flagship hub, underpinned by an asset transfer, that provides a base for local community organisers and 130+ diverse social action organisations and community businesses they lead at the Selby Centre with new partners, to create lasting exits from local inequalities with opportunities to achieve social value.
Objectives, activities, achievements and performance
The Selby Centre was established by Haringey Council in 1986 as a result of a community campaign for a sizeable community hub to house diverse services and communities with a dedicated centre that was affordable and local people could call ‘home’.
The Council ran the Selby Centre for its first 4-5 years until 1991, after which the community managed it directly.
In 1992, more than 30 years ago, the Selby Trust began in partnership with Haringey Council, as the freeholder, to make the Centre a genuinely community-led project, with a resident-led board.
The Selby Trust was supported by the late Bernie Grant MP and we continue to be strongly supported by our current MP for Tottenham, David Lammy, and Catherine West, the MP for neighbouring constituency in Hornsey and Wood Green. We are supported by the following corporate partners, BlackRock, Crown Workspace, Mako Global Group and Moorhouse Consulting.
The Trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the Trust should undertake.
The mission and objectives are achieved through the following areas of work:
-
Community Development
-
Community Economic Development
-
Community Environmental Development
-
Social Justice and Community Safety
-
Community Facilities Management
Broadly, the direction of travel has encompassed:
- (i) Community Development
Our community workers are experts at bringing together individuals and grassroots partnerships and consortia in a rich mix of cutting-edge services that challenge poverty, injustice and inequality. We are achieving sustainability through incubating social enterprises that promote growth in the local economy whilst serving social and environmental functions. We are identifying and maximising community assets by harnessing skills, enthusiasm and commitment of local residents.

THE SELBY TRUST
TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTOR'S REPORT AND STRATEGIC REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
-
We bring communities together by co-locating over 130+ social action organisations in active use of community premises, attracting co-produced services, job programmes, training and other opportunities.
-
Diverse staff and volunteers facilitate projects in an inclusive and collective manner whilst cherishing different languages, celebrating food and cultures and helping engagement with the people in the community.
-
Awareness raising and discussion events tend to be well attended, drawing people out of social isolation, into the heart of debates and increasing involvement in civic society, holding institutions and politicians to account, and raising awareness of services, consultations, and opportunities.
(ii) Community Economic Development
The Selby Trust aims to assist people from diverse backgrounds with different needs to acquire the skills, confidence, networks and knowledge necessary for them to develop solutions to life’s challenges. We aim to achieve sustainability through a social enterprise approach that provides revenue for the centre, allows us to incubate and develop other enterprises, foster their financial independence and supports the delivery of activities that promote growth in the local economy.
-
The Selby Trust is a multi-purpose community asset, in which the underlying economic inequalities are often addressed through a wide range of key actions and opportunities available through our work and onsite.
-
We organise networking and information workshops, drawing community businesses, social enterprises and community groups together to benefit from new knowledge.
-
The Selby Trust continues to maintain and develop The Selby Centre as a social and community enterprise hub that enables community resilience by supporting communities to positively respond to economic, social and environmental challenges.
-
Financial security is hard to achieve at the best of times and is certainly challenging in the worst of times. Much economic capital emerges out of the social and community capital for Tottenham, is generated here at our social action hub.
(iii) Community Environmental Development
At the Selby Centre, we have established space for many environmental enterprises. Together this helps achieve our triple bottom line – integrating green values with positive social and economic outcomes. In the future, we have plans to develop the Selby Centre as part of a wider Selby Centre and Bull Lane site development as an integral part of the Selby Urban Village, by ensuring the new facilities deliver low carbon usage as a model of good practice.
-
We aim to transform the environment at the Selby Centre by establishing space for environmental activities that make it a nicer place to be in. We attract and sell on office furniture affordably to community groups to avoid landfill and improve energy efficiency.
-
The Selby Trust now recycles bikes, grows fruit and vegetables with volunteer help, stimulates the creative use of textiles, and offers energy-saving advice.
-
Together this helps achieve our triple bottom line – integrating green values with social and economic outcomes.

(iv) Social Justice and Community Safety
We promote community safety and social justice to encourage safer neighbourhoods, and work to reduce violence and anti-social behaviour by creating opportunities for young people, older people, women and exoffenders. We build strong relationships between communities, police and youth offending services in the context of seeking justice and transparency. We are actively supporting ex-offenders in rehabilitation.
-
We reach in to communities and find ex-offenders to help become; peer supporters, mentors and with training, become advisors. They often provide the listening ear that others cannot, as they understand the conditions under which street violence and drug running takes place, and ways it can be prevented. With their experience they provide the provision of support and saving of lives.
-
We seek to establish a pathway model that can transform attitudes and accelerate the availability of options in employment, self-employment, co-operatives and social enterprise that are alternatives to reoffending and reduce entry into gangs and anti-social behaviour.
(v) Community Facilities Management
Maintaining the centre as a community facility which is well used by over 130 grassroots organisations that bring together a rich mix of cutting edge services and ideas. We attract up to 600 people a day on a regular basis. We rent office spaces to community businesses, social enterprises and charities. We also offer a variety of multipurpose rooms and halls for community activity that includes sports, health and well-being, fitness, dance, meetings, learning, job support and conferences. The Selby Trust is more than a landlord and facilities manager as we bring together tenants that can serve the needs of the local community, support them with training and capacity building and share knowledge about new sources of funding and partnerships.

Selby Food Hub
The aftereffects of Coronavirus and lockdowns have had a huge impact on the community, making local people very vulnerable, as has the cost-of-living crisis and financial challenges. The Selby Food Hub continues to provide food, sanitary items, cleaning products and baby items to as many people as possible. Over 20 local organisations were supported with donations for distribution to the local community and we also continued to supply food for up to 300 local people a week on site. We were supported by local communities that continue to provide local donations, in addition to donations from Food Bank Aid, Amazon, Felix Project, Beauty Box and Banquet. Our continuing partnership with the Haringey Food Network and Haringey Council, has helped to provide an overview of a range of partners in the borough with an interest in addressing the longer terms issues related to food poverty and sustainability. We continue to be part of the coordinated community response to Violence Against Women and Girls (VAWG) across the borough. VAWG sets out a 10-year Haringey Council ambition (2016-2026) for addressing and preventing violence against women and girls in the borough. Working in partnership with Peabody housing mental health support workers and sign posting and referral to Solace Women’s domestic violence services. The Selby Food Hub continues to offer a range of services especially on the days that the food hub operates. Such as employment support sessions, where people can get advice and support on employment, training, education writing and interview skills. The Citizens Advice Bureaux and Public Voice also offer services onsite, the effect of the economic crisis and rising fuel bills, we have seen an increase in people needing advice.
Selby Redevelopment
In partnership with the Local Community, London Borough of Haringey and supported by the Greater London Authority, we have designed bespoke area to suite the very specific needs of the Selby Trust and our communities. The partnership is now working towards submitting for planning approval in February 2024 and further fundraising for the overall Selby Urban Village. The partnership has been extremely successful in securing 20m to complete the first phase of the development, which will provide for community and sports facilities, this is an extremely exciting period for the local community and the Trust and has brought a freshness of optimism and hope for the local community.
There is a programme of transformation of services and restructuring in line with the vision over the next two years.
Selby Trust has a vision that the new Selby Urban Village will be:
A sustainable partnership that has the Selby Trust’s culturally rich communities involved at its heart. They will find high quality community services and inspirational spaces, which will provide connectivity, engagement and learning for all.
The Selby Redevelopment Group and Selby Active has played an extremely important role in supporting the Executive Team and Board in formulating its thoughts and design ideas for the wider Selby Urban Village and Community and Sports facilities moving forward.
HEY Network
The Selby Trust has been delivering the Haringey & Enfield Youth (HEY) Network project funded by the GLA since 2019. The programme is part of the Mayor of London's Young Londoners Fund aimed at reducing serious youth violence and ensuring better outcomes for young people. Our role has been to skill the youth sector in both boroughs, created collaboration opportunities and sustainability of funding. Funding has now come to an end, but we are considering which elements of the project could be sustained beyond the current funding stream.
School Holiday Programme with Sports Partnership Group
Young people have gone through a massive adjustment period during the Covid-19 lockdowns, whether it be working from home, missing out on education or not socialising with peers as normal. This has had an impact on their mental health and wellbeing. Through providing support to our Sports Active Group, over 200 participants, many of whom are young people, participated in different sporting, physical and enrichment activities as part of Selby Active, of which over 75% of participants in this period are from the BAME community. These activities were delivered in partnership with at least 10 local organisations at a time.

Sport England – Tackling Inequality Fund
The project forms part of the ongoing support from Sport England on providing sports and physical activities and services to the community from the age groups between 5 and 65 years old. Target audience - BAME, LESG, Women & Girls, CYP and Disabled. The legacy of this funding for us starting the ground up will enable us to understand the demand and potential organisations we can engage as many as may be interested in using the facilities during the day, especially older groups - the off-peak times. Just engaging and opening this up with new or current community partners would be a step forward.
School for Social Entrepreneurs - The Community Business Trade Up Programme
This course provided a different experience and allowed the student to feel free to raise any problems or difficulties they may have during the year. The programme builds on strong foundations using input from social entrepreneurs and social sector leaders over two decades and has been refined and developed through active engagement with students. We regard them to be contributors to the social enterprise and community business movement and, as such, there will be many opportunities for feedback during the course of the year.

THE SELBY TRUST
TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTOR'S REPORT AND STRATEGIC REPORT) (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
Financial review
The Selby Trust has maintained its healthy financial progress from the prior year despite generating an overall deficit notwithstanding the uncertain economy.
The Selby Trust has generated an overall deficit of £46,400, which is due to the reduction in Covid 19 emergency grants awarded in the prior year. This deficit has also arisen due to the increase in Charitable activities during the year, nonetheless total fund balances remain strong at £513,342.
The total restricted fund balance was £178,473 at the year-end. The restricted fund balance is comprised of either funders monies unexpended as at the year-end or monies expended by the Trust on projects which is still to be recovered from funders as at the year end. The trust has gained several new grants in the year. A breakdown of the relevant projects is provided in the notes to these financial statements.
At the year end, there was no balance remaining for the total unrestricted funds which are designated, as all amounts for designated purposes were fully expended in the year. A breakdown of the relevant projects for this fund is provided in the notes to these financial statements. The total general unrestricted fund balance is in a surplus of £334,869 at the year end.
The Trust's fundraising strategy is to develop a secure future by securing a longer lease and to work towards a future site redevelopment, by maximising social value and impact through relevant prevention and proactive action that reduces inequality, poverty and discrimination.
The Trust has increased its utilisation of grant programmes for community benefit by seeking to distribute grants at a grassroots level.
The Trust is seeking to further develop the concept of minimising competition for less charitable income for direct delivery, by opting for funds that pay for social infrastructure, addressing gap areas in which we can incubate solutions with communities and social entrepreneurs, and work with local people to identify their own solutions and help them grow.
Reserves policy
In line with the Board of Trustees policy established in 2017, the Trust is working towards implementing the policy of building up at least 12 months' worth of operating costs as reserves. The rationale for this is as follows:
-
Enable the Selby Trust to continue to deliver high-quality service and standard of work in a challenging context of deprivation, older buildings and multiple disadvantages facing local communities by working as a proactive and responsive community-led development trust.
-
The Selby Trust achieves this by generating income from the hire of facilities and reinvests a percentage of these back into community projects that meet community needs.
-
Earnings come from a number of community organisations who hire facilities, which may be vulnerable to a range of factors that can lead to their demise and inability to pay rent. Should the Centre fold for any reason, it will need to give notice to licensees and users.
-
Therefore, to be able to sustain opening hours, and a functioning site, and our own social change projects that connect not just to the voluntary sector (which can tend to focus on what funding requirements are to partly meet community and resident needs) but directly to communities and support responses to their broader and specific needs.
Risk management
The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Trust is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to actively monitor and mitigate exposure to the major risks.

THE SELBY TRUST
TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTOR'S REPORT AND STRATEGIC REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
The Trustees regularly review and assess risks to which the charity is exposed, they review a risk register and have put in place systems or procedures to mitigate the risks the charity faces. Internal control risks are minimised by the implementation of procedures for authorisation of all transactions and expenditure, reflected in a financial controls policy. The Trust has established a sub-committee with specific responsibility for Finance and Audit, to provide additional scrutiny and support, the committee is chaired by the Treasurer for the Selby Trust and is also supported by external finance and audit professionals. The Trust has seen a 3-fold increase in its utility costs, this is being monitored closely by the board and senior team and additional funds are being sort from existing funders to offset part of the additional utility costs.
Stakeholder engagement and dialogue with Haringey Council, VCS network, Local Further Education Colleges, NHS Clinical Commissioning Group, Public Health, Probation Service and Metropolitan Police continue to support the holistic model. This can enable celebrating what works at The Selby Centre, how it can further contribute to local service models, take part in co-production, social prescription as an intergenerational hub. This process is a useful contribution towards measuring the social value the Charity brings to the area and addressing what can be improved and how to achieve it. Trustees annually agree a budget and business plan, a realistic fundraising strategy to maintain existing income, develop new income sources and seek key targets that are realistic and appropriate. The charity has co-operated with a council to develop a social value framework which has now been implemented within the Trust and which provides supporting evidence for community impact and redevelopment.
The Trust has secured a 5-year lease with Haringey Council, we are continuing our negotiations with the council to determine lease terms and rental charges once the redevelopment of the new centre is completed. Trustees and the senior management team are continuing to develop a longer-term plan to achieve site redesign and redevelopment that brings about a modern, energy efficient multi-purpose community hub ready for a new era in Tottenham. Procedures are in place to ensure compliance with health and safety of staff, volunteers, clients and visitors to an ever-increasing number of visitors to the centre. Appropriate and systematic controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error, with a clear anti-fraud policy and adequate financial procedures. These procedures have been reviewed by the Treasurer in conjunction with senior staff and updated as necessary to ensure that they continue to meet the needs of the charity.
The economic climate and cost of living increases, has led to a need for increasing services and additional costs for the Trust. Contraction in public sector funds continue to restrain growth, and charitable fundraising remains exceedingly competitive. Utility saving investment would achieve minor savings and reduce carbon emissions. Utility costs remain burdensome, but the Trust will benefit from Government subsidies. The Trust has a stable relationship with its bank, which acknowledges the Charity's prudence and sustained financial improvement.

THE SELBY TRUST
TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTOR'S REPORT AND STRATEGIC REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
Transition
We cherish and recognise that in parallel to this physical transformation, it is a necessity to conserve our community-led approach, whereby, our partners play an important role. These include people and organisations from the environmental sector, education institution, statutory services, the third and private sectors. This wide range of partners ensures every part of civil society is involved.
Above all else, we will maintain and redevelop the Selby Centre so it can remain as a central place that develops, organises and strengthens Tottenham and surrounding areas while empowering the people who live here. Specifically, this will include actions to:
-
Maintain the building throughout the process, ensuring health and safety, business continuity and a positive approach to customer care, maximizing the offer to those people using our food bank, health services and disability support
-
Design the future – the site’s future redevelopment will include community, leisure and housing
-
Raise resources to contribute towards the site redevelopment
-
Bring on board new and existing partners into the Selby partnership to reflect local needs and interests
-
Staff, volunteers and board development and training required during the development of The Selby Trust and Centre.
-
Implement our community engagement and social impact frameworks
-
Increase and further diversify income sources to cover future costs redevelopment and some services.
-
Develop the skills of our staff, licensees and neighbourhood to increase the role everyone can play as the new ‘urban village’ emerges.
Plans for future periods
We are working collaboratively with Haringey Council to deliver a shared vision for the site which is defined within our memorandum of agreement as “an integrated, inclusive, healthy, sustainable, diverse, connected ‘urban village’ on the site”.
The 'urban village' development is based on a mixed-use scheme, which involves - building 200+ housing units, leisure facilities and the new Selby Centre. The Urban Village will enable excellent place making, green futures and vibrant communities together. This 'urban village' development will be carried out in phases so that we are visible and can continue to provide our services to the community.
The team has worked closely with excellent working relationships formed at all levels across the partnership. In particular the Selby Trust has been a conduit to the surrounding communities and has brought many voices to the table via the meetings and events we have hosted on site. The London Borough of Haringey working in partnership with the Selby Trust has received £20m from the Levelling Up Fund. This will support Phase 1 of the redevelopment. Our vision is that the New Selby Urban Village will be a sustainable partnership having culturally rich communities involved at his heart. They will find high quality community services and inspirational spaces which will provide connectivity engagement and learning for all.
The scheme is well supported, and there is no doubt that much of that support comes from the trust local people have in the Selby Trust.
Structure, governance and management
The Selby Trust is a company limited by guarantee and is governed by its Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association adopted 4 May 1993 amended by Special Resolution dated 28 September 1994 as amended on 28 January 2019 and registered at Charities Commission on 16 November 1994. The Charity was established under its Articles of Association, which established the objects and powers of the Charity. The Charity's reference and administrative details are as set out within these financial statements.
The board has committed to the implementation of the Voluntary and Community Sector’s Code of Good Governance as part of our governance framework. The Trust has established a sub-committee for Human Resources and Wellbeing and a sub-committee with responsibility for Finance and Audit.

THE SELBY TRUST
TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTOR'S REPORT AND STRATEGIC REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
The Trustees, who are also the directors for the purpose of company law, and who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were:
Mr J J S Clarke (Resigned 1 July 2022) Ms S C Nwimo Mr E N Ihejirika Ms A Stennett Dr V P Olisa Mr R Danso Mrs L Das Neves Mrs S Fitzsimmons Ms K Butt
Recruitment, appointment and terms of office of Trustees
The Selby Trust benefits from a strong, diverse and experienced board of Trustees, drawn from Haringey and neighbouring areas. Trustees bring together skills and knowledge from running charities, businesses, hospitals, sports clubs, and service providers. The board brings those who run and utilise The Selby Centre's facilities alongside local people with professional or business experience who comprehend local needs. We are also grateful to the Haringey councillors who generously share their local knowledge and expertise from local government and their respective fields, in policy, grant making, legalities, and education.
New trustees are recruited from within the Centre, the community of participants, trustee networks, professional contacts, the local council and those who respond to external advertising of the vacancies on The Selby Trust website, twitter feed and online promotions. New trustees complete an application form providing references and indicate their experiences and area of interest and contribution.
Trustee induction and training
Interested candidates are invited to meetings to engage with existing Trustees and, if successful in their application to become a trustee, are inducted into the work of the Trust. This involves visits to the Centre, meeting licensees, reviewing documents, plans and then attending board meetings. Trustees are encouraged to meet with the chief executive, staff, consultants, volunteers as well as other trustees in order to familiarise themselves with the charity and the context of its operations.
All existing Trustees are now already familiar with the practical work of the charity, but often take up the opportunity to refresh their knowledge about the Centre by visiting informally as well as attending meetings taking place at the Trust to keep themselves up-to-date. The charity has a strong and experienced board, supplemented now by new trustees that can continue to help raise the profile and bring in additional expertise in certain areas.
Induction procedures are in place for new trustees as are mechanisms to keep all Trustees abreast of developments in the sector e.g., by attending meetings, training and conferences.
None of the Trustees has any beneficial interest in the charitable company. All of the Trustees are members of the charitable company and guarantee to contribute £1 in the event of a winding up.
Operations and staffing
The Trustees delegate day to day management of the charity to the Chief Executive, Paul Butler, who is supported by his Senior Management Team to deliver the aims and objectives of the charity. The team has complete its first round of changes as it continues to develop a workforce and structure for the new centre and services which will emerge over the next two years. There is a significant program of transformation of both the physical infrastructure and services over the next 5 years.

THE SELBY TRUST
STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
The Trustees, who are also the directors of The Selby Trust for the purpose of company law, are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company Law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Trust and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that year.
In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Trust will continue in operation.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Trust and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Trust and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The trustees confirm that so far as they are aware, there is no relevant audit information (as defined by section 418(3) of the Companies Act 2006) of which the charitable company’s auditors are unaware. They have taken all the steps that they ought to have taken as trustees in order to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the charitable company's auditors are aware of that information.

THE SELBY TRUST
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE SELBY TRUST
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of The Selby Trust (the ‘Trust’) for the year ended 31 March 2023 which comprise the statement of financial activities, the balance sheet, the statement of cash flows and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion, the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31 March 2023 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Trust in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Trust’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the Trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other information
The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The Trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of our audit:
-
the information given in the trustees' report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared, which includes the directors' report and the strategic report prepared for the purposes of company law, is consistent with the financial statements; and
-
the strategic report and the directors' report included within the trustees' report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
-

THE SELBY TRUST
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED) TO THE MEMBERS OF THE SELBY TRUST
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Trust and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the strategic report or the directors' report included within the trustees' report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
certain disclosures of trustees' remuneration specified by law are not made; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of Trustees
As explained more fully in the statement of trustees' responsibilities, the Trustees, who are also the directors of the Trust for the purpose of company law, are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the Trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are responsible for assessing the Trust’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below.
The extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities including fraud
Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, was as follows:
-
the engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations;
-
we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the company through discussions with the Trustees, who are also the directors and other management, and from our commercial knowledge and experience of the sector;
-
we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the charitable company, including the Companies Act 2006, Charity Commission Regulations, Charities Act 2011, Statement of recommended practice (SORP FRS102), taxation legislation and data protection, anti-bribery and health and safety legislation;
-
we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management and inspecting legal correspondence; and
-
identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit.
-
17 -
THE SELBY TRUST
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED) TO THE MEMBERS OF THE SELBY TRUST
We assessed the susceptibility of the charitable company’s financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by:
-
making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud; and
-
considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations.
To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we:
-
performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships;
-
reviewed and tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions and other adjustments for appropriateness, and evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business;
-
assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates set out in note 3 were indicative of potential bias; and
-
investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions.
In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to:
-
reviewing and agreeing financial statement disclosures and testing to underlying supporting documentation;
-
enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims; and
-
reviewing correspondence with HMRC and bankers.
-
reviewing minutes of board meetings.
No instances of material non-compliance were identified. However, the likelihood of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is limited by the inherent difficulty in detecting irregularities, the effectiveness of the entity’s controls, and the nature, timing and extent of the audit procedures performed. There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the trustees, directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any.
Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.
A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: https:// www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and the charitable company’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

THE SELBY TRUST
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
1 Accounting policies
Charity information
The Selby Trust is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is The Selby Centre, Selby Road, Tottenham, London, Haringey, N17 8JL. The trust is registered at the Charities Commission with a registration number 1042095.
1.1 Accounting convention
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the Trust's governing document, the Companies Act 2006 and “Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)” (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2019). The Trust is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the Trust. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
1.2 Going concern
At the time of approving the financial statements, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Trust has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
1.3 Charitable funds
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives unless the funds have been designated for other purposes. Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees for particular purposes.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.
1.4 Income
Income is recognised when the Trust is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the Trust has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Donated services and gifts in kind are included at the value to The Selby Trust where this can be quantified.
Grants received are accounted for as receivable as and when the charity is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. Income from charitable activities includes income received under contract or where entitlement to grant funding is subject to performance conditions is recognised (as the related goods or services are provided). Grant income included in this category provides funding to support activities and is recognised where there is entitlement, certainty of receipt and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability.
Advance payments received during the year for activities to be carried out in later financial years are not reflected in the statement of financial activities. The amounts have been deferred to the financial year in which the activities will be carried out and are reported as deferred income. Deferred income is included within creditors.

THE SELBY TRUST
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
1 Accounting policies
(Continued)
Other trading activities income includes rental income which is recognised when receivable.
Investment income is recognised on a receivable basis.
1.5 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised when a liability is incurred. Contractual arrangements and performance related grants are recognised as goods or services are supplied. Other grant payments are recognised when a constructive obligation arises that result in the payment being unavoidable.
Costs of generating funds are those costs incurred in attracting voluntary income, and those incurred in trading activities that raise funds.
Charitable activities include both the direct and support costs relating to these activities.
Governance costs include the cost of any legal advice to trustees on governance or constitutional matters, external accountancy and audit costs.
Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to the different categories of activities based on the time spent on each activity.
The trust is not registered for VAT so all expenses shown in the statement of financial activities and notes to the accounts are shown gross (i.e. inclusive of VAT).
1.6 Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Leasehold improvements 20% Reducing balance Plant and machinery 20% Reducing balance Computer equipment 20% Reducing balance
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.
1.7 Impairment of fixed assets
At each reporting end date, the Trust reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).
1.8 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

1.9 Financial instruments
The Trust has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the Trust's balance sheet when the Trust becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Trust’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
1.10 Employee benefits
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.
Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the Trust is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
1.11 Government grants
Government grants are recognised at the fair value of the asset received or receivable when there is reasonable assurance that the grant conditions will be met and the grants will be received.
Government grants relating to turnover are recognised as income over the periods when the related costs are incurred.
1.12 Volunteers
A substantial contribution to the activities of The Selby Trust is supplied in the form of voluntary services for supporting the charity and providing administrative services. The financial benefit of these non-cash donations have not been recognised in these accounts as by their nature it would be impractical to quantify in monetary terms.

2 Change in accounting policy
The Trust had previously recognised governance costs as "Other" costs on the face of the Statement of Financial Activities. However, in accordance with the guidance, the Trust has made a decision to allocate these costs between the charitable activities. This does not change the net movement in funds or the total expenditure. However, the corresponding amounts on the Statement of Financial Activities have been adjusted and as a result, the Unrestricted Expenditure on Charitable Activities in 2022 has increased now from £258,918 to £313,256.
3 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the Trust’s accounting policies, the Trustees are required to make judgements, 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 underlying 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.
Specifically, the Trustees have made judgements on the apportionment of support and governance costs across the various charitable activities (see notes 10 and 11 for further details) - the basis of this apportionment has remained consistent to prior years.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
Depreciation rates and estimated economic useful life of tangible fixed assets
The Trustees review the useful economic lives of depreciable assets at each reporting date so as to allocate the costs of assets, less their residual value, over their estimated useful lives. Uncertainties in these estimates relate to the actual life of the tangible fixed assets.
Bad debt provision
The Trustees makes allowance for doubtful debts based on an assessment of the recoverability of trade debtors. Allowances are applied to trade debtors where events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The Trustees specifically analysed historical bad debts, current economic trends and changes in customer payment terms when making a judgement to evaluate the adequacy of the allowance of doubtful debts. Where the expectation is different from the original estimate, such difference will impact the carrying value of trade debtors.
