Report of the Trustees

The trustees, who are also Directors for the purposes of company law, have pleasure in presenting their report and the financial statements for the 12 month Period Ended 31st December 2022

Structure, Governance and Management

Kadampa Meditation Centre Southampton is a registered charity (1050611) and a company limited by guarantee registered in England (3048918) and is governed by its memorandum and articles of association. The directors are the charity trustees for the purposes of the Charities Act 2011. The company's structure, governance and management are set out in detail in the KMC Southampton's constitution. Directors of KMC Southampton are appointed in accordance with the charity’s constitution and guidance provided by the Charities Commission. A potential new Director must fully understand and support the objects of the charity and be nominated by two members of the charity. Directors are required to declare their eligibility in accordance with charities commission guidance. Nominations must be made in writing and signed by the members making the nomination. Members can only nominate one candidate each. Election of a Director is determined at the AGM by a poll conducted by the chairperson.

Principal activity The principal activity of the charity is to promote Kadampa Buddhism according to the teachings of Je Tsongkhapa as taught by Venerable Geshe Kelsang Gyatso. To accomplish this aim the company has four principal activities: 1 Providing an education programme of drop-in classes, study programmes, retreats, day/weekend courses, public talks and special events. 2 Providing the facilities to house a small community of people who wish to study on the education programme and to follow the moral discipline of Kadampa Buddhism. 3 Running a shop, which principally sells teaching and ritual materials to facilitate the practice of Kadampa Buddhism. The shop also sells gift items for fundraising. 4 Running a simple coffee shop, selling teas, coffees and various pre-packaged food items.

These aims are supported financially through fees from the education programmes, proceeds from the shop/cafe, income from rented accomodation at the Centre and donations. The classes and Centre are open to every member of the public and as such are made available and accessible to everyone. The Centre seeks to make a positive impact on the local community.

How Southampton KMC activities deliver public benefit

Southampton KMC offers the following services to directly deliver public benefit:
1 An education programme consisting of meditation classes, courses and retreats. We teach people how to meditate
and how to use practical methods to find happiness from within and to reduce stress in their daily lives.

3 A small coffee shop where people can enjoy teas, coffees, cakes and biscuits in peaceful surroundings.
4 Free chanted prayers (daily, weekly and monthly) open to all.
5 Hosting school and group visits.

supporting local events hosted by other groups in the community.

Trustees have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing Southampton KMC's aims and objectives. In particular, trustees have considered how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives which have been set.

Report of the Trustees continued

Review of achievements and performance

Over this financial period,the Centre has maintained good numbers of people attending classes. Following the discontinuation of online classes in September, the number of people attending in - person has grown steadily, bringing a stronger Community and increased revenue from the gift shop and coffee shop.Branch classes and memberships continued to provide a steady income.

Financial Review

Over the period 1st January to 31st December 2022, the Centre made a surplus of £4890 . This was in comparison to the previous 8 month period 1st May to 31st December 2021 which saw the Centre making a loss of £8,455. Income from our charitable activities was £115,924 (2021: £56,769) and we received generous donations from supporters of £ 23,847 (2021: £18,793).

Reserves Policy

The policy throughout the period with regard to reserves has been to ensure that there are sufficient free reserves held in bank accounts to cover any unforseen costs necessary to maintain the Centre building and cover the monthly mortgage costs.

Reserves

At the end of the period, the total funds held by the charity were £540,315 (2021: £535,427, of this £481,070 (2021: £447,982) represents the net value of the fixed assets, £3450 (2021: £nil) is restricted and the remaining £55,795 (2021: £57,445) are free reserves. The Trustees consider that this is sufficient to comply with the reserves policy.

Plans for Future Periods

During the financial year ending 31st December 2023 , the Centre will continue to offer classes and courses both at the Centre and in our regional locations within Hampshire, Dorset and West Sussex.The Centre continues to explore ways to further develop its offer to the local and regional communities and is working on its marketing and development strategies to facilitate this.

Notes to the Financial Statements

1. Statement of accounting policies

Basis of accounting

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts.

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with:

the recommendations in Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102), Charities SORP (FRS102), the Charities Act 2011 and the Companies Act 2006.

Kadampa Meditation Centre Southampton meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS102.

Cash flow statement

The trustees have taken advantage of the exemption in Financial Reporting Standard No 1 (revised) from including a cash flow statement in the financial statements on the grounds that the charity is small.

Going concern

At the time of signing the accounts, the Trustees considered the going concern position.

Having reviewed performance during this period and subsequent to the balance sheet date, they consider that this indicates that the charity will continue to operate for a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing these accounts. At the balance sheet date the charity held significant cash balances. The charity has significant unrestricted reserves, which are sufficient to absorb short-term in-period deficits if required.

On that basis the Trustees have prepared these financial statements on a going concern basis.

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Donations received represent voluntary donations and gifts received by the charity and they are included in the period when it becomes receivable.

Expenditure is recognised in the period in which it is incurred.

Expenditure is allocated to the particular activity where the cost relates directly to that activity. Support costs include central functions and have been allocated proportionally to activity cost categories on an estimation of the time spent by support staff on each area of activity as a proxy.

All fixed assets are initially recorded at cost.

Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an asset, less its estimated residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows: The fit out costs (Leashold Improvements) of the property at Hanover Buildings have been capitalised and will be depreciated over a 20 year period (the shorter of the lease (999 years) and the useful economic life of the improvements).

Fixtures & Fittings at the rate of 10% per annum, straight line

Motor Vehicles at the rate of 25% per annum, straight line Office Equipment at the rate of 25% per annum, straight line Website (Intangibles) at the rate of 20% per annum, straight line Leasehold Improvements at the rate of 5% per annum, straight line

Stock represents items for resale in the shop and is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete items, in accordance with FRS102.

Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity. Subsequently, they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received.

The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts. A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date.
