## TRUSTEES' REPORT 

The trustees have pleasure in presenting their report together with the unaudited consolidated financial statements of the charity and its subsidiaries for the 52 weeks ended 15 May 2022.  These are also prepared to meet the requirements for a directors' report and financial statements for Companies Act purposes. 

The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice ("Charities SORP") (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland; FRS 102) issued in October 2019. 

## **Public benefit** 

The Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in section 4 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit 'Charities and Public Benefit'.  This Trustees' report clearly sets out our charitable objects, current activities and how they benefit the public. 

## **Objectives and activities** 

The charity was formed on 13 May 1996 with the primary object of ensuring that Bradford Ice Arena remained in operation for the benefit of young persons in the local community. 

The purposes of the charity continue to be: 

- to provide facilities for recreation and other leisure time occupation in the interests of social welfare and with the object of improving the conditions of life for the benefit of the public; and 

- the advancement of physical education amongst children and young persons up to the age of 25 years. 

In shaping our objectives the trustees have considered the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit, including the guidance on public benefit and fee charging.  The ice arena relies on income from fees and charges to cover its operating costs.  In setting the level of fees, charges and concessions, the trustees give careful consideration to the accessibility of the arena for families and those on low incomes. 

The strategies employed to achieve the charity's aims and objectives are: 

- Involvement in programs run by Bradford & Leeds Councils to provide discounted admission to families and children from under privileged backgrounds. 

- Groups are given discounted rates for admission. 

- A learn to skate program for children and families and family ticket discounts. 

- Provision of support and preferential rates to the local ice hockey, speed, synchro and figure skating clubs. 

Within these aims, the charity, through its subsidiary endeavours to generate profits, which can be ploughed back into improving the venue. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

On 17th May 2021 public sessions recommenced, albeit with limitations on numbers due to social distancing.  This was followed by the removal of almost all Covid related restrictions on 19th July 2021.   Despite the trustees' concerns that admissions would be affected by concerns about infection, admissions held up and the business has had a good year. 

## **Financial review** 

## **Financial position** 

The whole of the group’s income is derived from the trading activities of its subsidiary Ice Time Limited which, trades as Bradford Ice Arena. 

The group's results for the 52 week period showed a surplus with reserves at the year end increasing by £202,831.

NICE TIME 

## TRUSTEES' REPORT (continued) 

## **Investment powers and policies** 

The trustees, having regard to the liquidity requirements of operating the ice arena and to the reserves policy have operated a policy of keeping available funds in an interest bearing deposit account. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

During recent years funds have been accumulated on deposit by the trading subsidiary in order to provide adequate working capital to enable the company to survive during the summer months when losses in excess of £60,000 can accrue.  In normal circumstances the trustees aim to have a cushion in the region of £100,000 on deposit at the charity's year end.  Whilst this is still the case, it is likely that reserves will be required in the near future to replace the refrigeration plant as problems continue to arise which indicate that it may prove prudent to look at alternatives. 

## **Plans for future periods** 

When the charity’s subsidiary took over the running of the Ice Arena in 1996 it was in a poor state of repair. Admission numbers had declined due to the fact that other leisure venues provided a more exciting experience. 

The trustees operate a policy of gradually improving the arena’s facilities so as to compete with the other leisure venues and thus maintain the business's viability. 

## **Directors and trustees** 

The directors of the charitable company (the charity) are its Trustees for the purpose of charity law.  The trustees and officers who served during the period are as follows: 

## **Key management personnel** 

## **Trustees** 

B A Brown C Dacres N C Griffith D P A Hall J B Whitaker J P Whitaker 

## **Company secretary** 

J B Whitaker 

## **Operations director of Ice Time Limited** 

A R Brown 

## **Structure, governance and management** 

## **Governing Documents** 

Nice Time is a company, which is limited by guarantee and governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association dated 19 June 2015.  It is registered as a charity with the Charity Commission. 

## **Appointment of trustees** 

Trustees are appointed by the members in accordance with the provisions contained in the Articles of Association. 

## **Trustee training and induction** 

New trustees are briefed on their obligations under charity and company law, the memorandum and articles of association and on the Charity Commission Guidance on public benefit.  Trustees attend external training events to facilitate the undertaking of their role, where appropriate.

NICE TIME 

## TRUSTEES' REPORT (continued) 

## **Organisational structure** 

The board of trustees administers the charity and appoints directors to serve on the board of its trading subsidiary through which all its charitable activities are carried out. 

The board of the trading subsidiary works closely with the Operations Director to ensure smooth running of the Ice Arena.  Overall responsibility for operational matters rests with A R Brown. 

Day to day operational matters are dealt with by the Operational Director and a team of duty managers. 

## **Pay policy for senior staff** 

The directors consider the board of directors, who are the Trust’s trustees, and the senior management team comprise the key management personnel of the charity in charge of directing and controlling, running and operating the Trust on a day to day basis. All directors give of their time freely and no director received remuneration in the year. 

The pay of the senior staff is reviewed annually and normally increased in accordance with average earnings. 

## **Risk management** 

The trustees have a risk management strategy which comprises: 

- Periodic reviews of the risks the charity and its subsidiary Ice Time Limited may face. 

- The establishment of systems and procedures to mitigate the identified risks. 

This work has identified that financial sustainability is the major financial risk for the subsidiary.  Attention has also been focused on non-financial risks arising from child protection issues, fire, health and safety of employees and patrons and food hygiene.  A key element of the management of financial risk is the retention of adequate working capital by the subsidiary company. 

In reviewing risks management have taken account of the guidance prepared by the Government and the Ice Rink Management Association on social distancing, and health and hygiene to protect staff and customers during the current Covid 19 pandemic. 

The trustees have reviewed the groups financial position and believe that the charity can continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least twelve months from the approval of the financial statements. This is based on group bank balances of £641,458 as at 28 February 2023 and the assumption that no significant further Covid related lockdowns will occur in the next twelve months.  The financial statements have, therefore, been prepared on a going concern basis. 

The trustees are satisfied that systems and procedures are in use to adequately manage the risks to which the charity and its subsidiary are exposed.

## TRUSTEES' REPORT (continued) 

## **Trustees responsibilities in relation to the financial statements** 

The trustees (who are also directors of Nice Time for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

The report and accounts have been prepared in accordance with the provisions in the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies. 

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 charitable company and the group and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable group for that period. 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 charitable company will continue in business. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company 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 charitable company and the group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other i l iti 

The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. 

The charitable company has taken out qualifying third party indemnity insurance for the benefit of its trustees. 

In preparing this report advantage has been taken of the small companies exemption within Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006. 

Approved by the Board of Directors and signed on behalf of the Board.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES 

OF 

## NICE TIME 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Nice Time (‘the company’) for the period ended 15 May 2022, which are set out on pages 6 to 17. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the trustees of the company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (‘the 2006 Act’). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination I report in respect of my examination of your charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145 (5)(b) of the 2011 Act. 

An independent examination does not involve gathering all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently does not cover all the matters that an auditor considers in giving their opinion on the accounts. The planning and conduct of an audit goes beyond the limited assurance that an independent examination can provide. Consequently, I express no opinion as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and my report is limited to those specific matters set out in the independent examiner’s statement. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

Since the company’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, which is one of the listed bodies. 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect: 

- 1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

- 2 the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

- 3 the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view’ which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or Act; or 

- 4 the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Ireland (FRS 102). 

I have no other concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

NICE TIME 

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 

## Fifty two week period ended 15 May 2022 

## 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES 

## Accounting convention 

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis.  The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity. The report and accounts have been prepared in accordance with the provisions in the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies. 

## Basis of preparing the financial statements 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the 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)) (issued in October 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006. 

## Going concern 

The trustees have reviewed the groups financial position and believe that the charity can continue to meet its liabilities as they fall due for at least twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements. This is based on group cash balances of £641,458 as at 28 February 2023. The financial statements have, therefore, been prepared on a going concern basis.' 

## Group financial statements 

The financial statements consolidate the results of the charity and its wholly owned subsidiaries on a line-by-line basis.  A separate Statement of Financial Activities, and income and expenditure account, for the charity itself are not presented because the charity has taken advantage of the exemptions afforded by section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 and paragraph 397 of the SORP. 

## Incoming resources 

All incoming resources are accounted for when the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount is measurable with sufficient reliability. Where income is received in advance it is deferred until the charity is entitled to that income. 

## Donations 

Donations are recognised on receipt. 

Tax reclaims on donations and gifts 

Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor.  Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the terms of the appeal have specified otherwise. 

## Resources expended 

Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty. 

- Costs of generating funds comprise the costs associated with attracting voluntary income and the costs of trading for fundraising purposes including the charity’s shop and cafe. 

- Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them. 

- Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include the fees and costs linked to the strategic management of the charity. 

- All costs are allocated between the expenditure categories of the SoFA on a basis designed to reflect the use of the resource. Costs relating to a particular activity are allocated directly, others are apportioned on an appropriate basis. 

These unaudited financial statements have been subject to an independent examination. See report on page 5.

The charity accounts for basic financial instruments on initial recognition at the amount receivable or payable including any related transaction costs.  Subsequent measurement is as per paragraphs 11.17 to 11.19, FRS102 SORP. 

## Tangible fixed assets 

Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost.  Depreciation is provided on cost in equal annual instalments over the estimated lives of the assets.  The rates of depreciation are as follows:- 

Equipment, fixtures and tools 

8.33% to 25% per annum 

## Investments 

Investments are included at net asset value as disclosed in the subsidiary company's accounts. 

## Deferred taxation 

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date where transactions or events that result in an obligation to pay more tax in the future or a right to pay less tax in the future have occurred at the balance sheet date.  Timing differences are differences between the company’s taxable profits and its results as stated in the financial statements. 

Deferred tax is measured at the average tax rates that are expected to apply in the periods in which timing differences are expected to reverse, based on tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.  Deferred tax is measured on a non-discounted basis. 

## Leases 

Operating lease commitments are provided for in the balance sheet at the time the rental payments fall due. Such rental costs are charged to the profit and loss account as incurred. 

Fund accounting 

Unrestricted funds are available to use to further any of the purposes of the charity. 

## 2. LEGAL STATUS OF THE CHARITY 

The company is limited by guarantee and has no share capital.  In the event of the company being wound up or dissolved the members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £10.00.
