Trustee’s Report (Including Director’s Report)
For the Year ended 31[st] March 2023
The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the Year ended 31[st] March 2023.
These financial statements are prepared in with the accountancy policies set out in Note 1 of these financial statements and comply with the charity’s Memorandum and articles, Companies House 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 Effective 1[st] January 2019).”
Objectives and Activities
The charity’s primary objective is to continue the support of people with learning difficulties and autism, primarily in the Eastbourne and Hailsham area.
Public Benefit
The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Chrity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.
Achievement & Performance
Our training facility, Chalk Farm Learning Disabilities Centre operating from Chalk Farm Hotel continues to meet the needs of its students by providing high quality facilities and support in the training of Health and Safety, Hotel, Catering and Horticultural Services. Most importantly providing our students with life skills that enable them to live a more independent life.
The charity has experienced a drop in student numbers this fiscal year and this will have a significant impact on our financial outcome unless we reverse this trend.
The impact of Covid19 restrictions have continued to have an effect on our financial recovery.
Following the lifting of the restrictions a number of our students decided not to return to the charity. For some this was due to the loss of their funding, families moving to other areas and for others, retirement.
The cost of living increases during this year has resulted in a sudden reduction in functions towards the end of 2022/2023. As weddings make a significant contribution to our yearly income it is of note that it was reported by local Registrars that they had seen a significant reductions in weddings this year.
The charity has experienced a lot of staff sickness during this year and this put additional pressure on other staff. Some members of staff also left the charity to pursue different careers.
In order to reduce the financial impact on the charity due to the reduction in functions and because a specific full time staff role was not now required the charity carried out a restructure of a number of its staffs rolls.
It has been a very difficult year to raise funds and although applications for grants were made during the year almost all those available were subject to very specific requirements that we were unfortunately, unable to meet, so regrettably we were unsuccessful with the majority of applications, however the charity continued to organise various events within the hotel and gardens that raised additional funds.
The reduction in students will have a significant impact on our financial outcome if we cannot increase numbers.
Students continued to be given a variety of differing experiences during the year in addition to their regular training programmes and we find that new experiences provide a stimulating addition to their normal activities and it to be of significant benefit.

Trustee’s Report Continued
As at 31[st] March 2023
Our secret garden project continues to provide a wide range of experience and activities that are popular with our students. The results of the wild garden planting giving an early indication of the impact of their work on the whole garden area with an explosion of colour from the wild flowers sown in the prepared beds. Continuing removal of bamboo and general debris, garden edges and borders, tree plantings, meandering paths, a pond, a lawn and vegetables all achieved during the year by students, staff and volunteers.
Trustees continue to be actively engaged with the operations of the charity including meetings with staff, taking part in job interviews, providing guidance and support and volunteering and assisting with the work in the gardens. We thank all our staff for their tireless work, over a very difficult period and with special thanks to our management team for the additional workload that they have dealt with so successfully. Staff have worked hard to enable our students to benefit from and enjoy spending their time at Chalk Farm Learning Disabilities Centre.
The general cost of living rises has already impacted our financial Position and will continue to do so and it is very likely to be a difficult year ahead. Local authority spending is in consequence likely to be very tight but our students, no matter the circumstances still need our care, guidance and encouragement and we thank our local authority for their continuing support that enables us to provide this essential service.
Financial Review
Following lockdown this is the first fall year where COVID 19 has not had an impact on the charity, however as mentioned there is still a hangover as weddings have fallen this year and now with the added increase in living costs that have started to become more apparent the ability of the charity to generate funds has been affected.
Reserves Policy
It is the policy of the charity that free reserves which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to three months of operational expenditure. The trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the charity’s current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. A sum of £25,000 has been set aside in a designated fund to be reviewed in due course depending upon circumstances of the centre.
Risk Policy
The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to any major risks.
Structure, Governance and Management
The company is a charity limited by guarantee and does not have a share capital.
The trusteed who are also 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:

1.5 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, if it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs or each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Centre staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis. Management and administration costs are those incurred with administration of the charity and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements.
Where costs cannot be directly attributed to a particular heading, they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of the resources.
1.6 Depreciation

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of the assets less their residual value over their useful lives on the following basis:
Leasehold property – Over the term of the lease Fixtures and Fittings & Equipment – 15% Reducing Balance Basis
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 non-current assets
At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amount 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) .

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price and represents food and consumables unsold at the year end.
1.9 Cash and Cash equivalents

2. Critical Accounting Estimates and Judgements
In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not apparent from other sources.

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 effects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
