Trustee’s Report (Including Director’s Report)

For the Year ended 31[st] March 2024

The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the Year ended 31[st] March 2024.

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 Charity 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 continued to experience a drop in its student numbers this fiscal year and we are making every possible effort to reverse this trend by ensuring that we extend our reach to all possible potential students. We are having some success in our efforts and expect to see our numbers rise significantly during 2024. Increasing the student numbers is essential and critical to our financial outcome.

The impact of Covid19 restrictions and the cost of living increases 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. Some functions booked this year have been put back to 2024/25. 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 reduction in weddings this year.

The charity has experienced a lot of staff sickness during this year, putting additional pressure on other staff.

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 has had a significant impact on our financial outcome, but we are succeeding in our efforts to increase numbers.

The charity was able to provide 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 2024

Our secret garden project continues to provide a wide range of experience and activities that are popular with our students. The raised vegetable gardens have provided a variety of fresh produce and the wild garden planting continues to impress. A group of Silver Birch and various other species of trees planted in close proximity by our students, staff and volunteers is providing an interesting competition project and the general area is benefiting from time to mature.

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 successfully coping over this difficult and extended period and with special thanks to our management team for the additional workload that they have had to cope with. Staff continued to ensure our students benefit from and enjoy spending their time at Chalk Farm Learning Disabilities Centre.

The continuing cost of living rises that have influenced our financial position will continue to do and we expect 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 should be 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:

In carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145 (5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

As at 31[st] March 2024

1. Accounting Policies

Company Information

Eastbourne Area Parent Group (Learning Disabilities) is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Chalk Farm Learning Disability Centre, Coopers Hill, Willingdon, East Sussex, BN2 9JD.

1.1 Accounting Convention

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the charity’s Memorandum of Association and Articles, the Companies Act 2006 and “Accounting and Reporting by Charities Statement of Recommended Practice applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)” (as amended for the accounting periods commencing January 2019). The charity is a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.

The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a statement of Cash Flows.

The financial statements are prepared in Sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements 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 charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing financial statements.

1.3 Charitable Funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.

1.4 Income

Income is recognised when the charity 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, Grants and other donations are recognised once the charity 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 covenants are recognised at the time of the donation.

Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known and receipt is expected. If the amount is unknown the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

The charity provides training and education facilities for marginalized adults via its operation as an Event Centre.

NOTES ON FINANCIAL STATEMENT

As at 31[st] March 2024

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 accrual 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

Property, plant and equipment are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

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).

1.8 Inventories

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

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short term liquid investments with original maturities three months or less, and bank overdrafts are shown with borrowings in current liabilities.

NOTES ON FINANCIAL STATEMENT

As at 31[st] March 2024

1.10 Financial Instruments

The charity has elected to apply the provision 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 charity’s balance sheet when the charity 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 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 trade and other receivables 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 financial transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value or 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 trade and other payables and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financial transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payment discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Trade payables 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 derecognized when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

1.11 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 charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

1.12 Retirement benefits

Payment of defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charges as an expense as they fall due.

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