CENTRE4 LIMITED (A Company Llmlted by Guaranleo) CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 The chairman presents her ststement for the year. This year seems to have flown by and once agaln l am pleased to welGorne you to our Trustees Annual Report and sel of accounts which. I hope, will positively reflect the changes we have gone through during this year and highlight the exciling developments that we have begun. The year started on a very positive note with Centre4 receiving notlfication that we had been successful in our application to the Youth Investment Fund. Receiving £2.8 m has enabled us to slart designing and planning for a purpose-built facility which, when completed, will bring a wide range of opportunities for OUT young people and will be a real "game-changer" for the area. We also received good news as, once again. Centre4 was awarded the contract to continue to deliver the social prescribing project "Thrive" Our thanks must go to our Partners, our CEO. our Health and Wellbeing Director and the Thrive staff team for thelr exceptional work in brlnging thls to a successful outcome. Thls Is a long-temi contract which brings continued assurance of supptyt to its beneficiaries and, ol course, security to our Thrive staff team for a number of years. Undoubt8dly, this year has brought numerous challenges not least of whlch was an arson attack in August which not only endangered the life of one member of staff working for one of our tenants, but also rendered a few rooms unusable for many months. Sadly, this resulted in one of ovr long-term tenants, Carelink. taking the decision to leave us. We have therefore reslruclured the area. and l am pleased to report that, when the work Is completed, it wlll create a space that Is both attractive and workable for a range of potential tenants. I must also thank our CEO, direclors and all the leadership team, the staff, volunteers, partners and our tenants for all their hard work. help and support during those exceptionally difficult weeks. The Board are truly grateful to everyone. Another positive change for Centre4 has been planning the redesign of the reception area. Once completed this will update the space and bring a more modem, accessible and welcoming 8nlrance for everyone. It will also ensure that an under-utilised walkway becomes much more functional as well as providing a much needed community meeting roorn. With long temi fundlng coming to an end. undoubtedly, this has been a challgnging year for ERA. our ethical recruitment agency, as it transitions towards becoming a sustainable service. That said, Ihe leam has extremely worked hard and. despite a number of setbacks, has made progress, especially in successfully delivering the Proud to Care Academy Training Pilot whlch has also helped to build good relatlonships with a number of employers in the area. l am also pleased to report that Butterflies Day Nursery has maintalned its'good. Ofsted rating, which is testimony to the hard work and commitment of the team. Whilst, as with all funded nurseries, there are some concerns, we have been assured by our partner colleagues that government changes to funded places will make a big difference next year. As Centre4 continues to grow and develop, unsuTprisingly. there has been a number of change8 in personnel and, whilst we are always sory to lose staff who have worked with us for a long time. we appreciate thal, sometimes, people need to move on and we wish them well in the future. As always, change brings opportunity and we have therefore taken time to review our leadership slructure, which has resulted in a more clearly defined leadership team and provided the opportunity to create a new post for a Facilities Director. Phil Drinkwater, who joined us in June. We are extremely fortunate to now have a leadership team that are all dedicated professionals who work èffectiV8ly together and who are all commfft8d to the future success of our organisation.

In drawing to a clos8, I would Ilke to Say a big thank you to Tracey Good, our now CEO, who has settl8d in vary quickly and has already proven to be an excellent leader for our organisation. We are Indebted to her for her hard work and especially for so quickly 'getting to grips" with our complex and diverse organisation.

I would like to highlight the dedication of the staff team and their approach and support ol our model- they have been supportive and creative and have taken every challenge head on.

FINANCIAL REVIEW Golng Concern After making appropriate enquiries, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources lo continue in operatlonal existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue lo adopt the going concem basis in preparing financlal statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accountlng policles. Flnanclal posltlon The Consolldated Slatement of Financial Activities shows a net loss for the year of £211.378 made up of a net loss of £125.073 on unrestricted funds and a net loss of £86.305 on restricted funds. The net loss on restricted funds is due to timing differences of income being received and spent. The unrestricted net loss is mostly made up of the £117,965 of designated funds that the Board agreed in the previous accounts to support ERA and to increase the staff of Cenlre4. The remaining £40,000 of the designated funds was used on repairs and refurbishment. Total funds at 31 March 2024 were £2,327,710 of which £1,599.736 were restricted. The principal funding sources for the charity are rent. room hire, nursery fees and contract and grant income that comes from delivering the Advice Service, Social Prescribing and associated projects and the Youth Investment Fund. There will always be an element of uncertainty wtth our fundedlcontracted provision, parttcularly as these are public funds that are subject to year-on-year review.
CENTRE4 LIMITED (A Company Llmlted by Guarantee) TRUSTEE'S AND STRATEGIC REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 Ro8ervos pollcy The board has established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets (the free reserves) held by the charity should be equivalent to three months of the running Costs, which equates lo approximately £199,385 in unrestricted funds. The balance held as unrestricted funds on 31 March 24 was £727,974, ofwhich £574.135 equates tofixed assets. We have approximately 2.5 months of unrestricted reserves. We intend to increase our reseNes by maximizing the extra staff resource we have since the usé of the d8slgnated funds by applying for more grants, contracts and increasing our room hire occupancy.

The Trustees are responsible for the other information contsined within the Annual Report.

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 finan¢lal 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 lo report in this regard. Oplnlon on othor matter• pre8crlbed by the Companle8 Act 2006 In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: the information given in the Trustees, Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial ststements. the Trustees.

Matt•r8 on whlch w• ar• r•qulr•d to r•port by •x¢•ptlon In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the charltable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees, Report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion- the parent charitable cornpany has not kept adequate and sufficient accounting records, or retums adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us., or Ihe parent charitable company financlal statements are not in agreement with the accountlng records and returns. or certain disclosures of Twstees, remuneration specrfied by law are not made; or we have not received all the infomiation and explanations we requir8 for our audlt.

Auditors. responsibilities lor 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 Auditors, Report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted In a¢¢ordanc8 with ISAS (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when il exists. Misstalements 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<ompliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to delect material misstatements in respecl ol irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of det&cting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below.. Based on our understanding of the charltable company. we Identrfied that the principal risks of non-compllance with laws and regulations and corporation tax legislation and we considered the extent to which non-compliance might have a material effect on the financial statements. As part of this assessment we considered both quantitative and qualitative factors. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the preparation on the financial statements, such as the Companies Act 2006 and FRS 102, We evaluated management's incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements which included the risk of management override ol controls. We determined that the principal risks were related to P05ting Inapproprlate joumal entries. omitting, advancing or delaying recognltlon of events and transaclions that have occurred during or after Ihe reporting period, and potential managem8nt blas in the determlnallon of accounting estimates or judgements to manipulate results. Audit procedures perfomied by the engagement team Include.. Enquiring of and obtaining written reSentatIOn from management in relation to known or suspected instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations and fraud- Evaluation of management's controls designed to prevent and detect irregularltl8S- Idenlifying and, where relevant, testing journal entries posted by senior management or with unusual combinations; Assessing and evaluating the business ratlonale of significant transactions oulside the normal course of business.. Reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance wilh applicable laws and regulations- Review of correspondence with regulators in so far as they are related to the financial stalements- Incorporating 818ments of unpredictability into the nature, timing andlor extent of audit procedures -performed. There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulallons is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, theless likely we would become aware of it. Also. the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by. for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentation, or through collusion. 15
