THE ROTHSAY EDUCATION CENTRE (BEDFORD) LIMITED
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 August 2023
The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 August 2023. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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 January 2019).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
Founded in 1977, the Centre was funded and managed by the then Bedford College of Further Education. It was subsequently transferred to Bedfordshire County Council who supported it until 1997. On 1st September 1997 it became an independent private company limited by guarantee, with charitable status and is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association.
The principal object of the Rothsay Education Centre is:
- to advance the education mainly of persons over 50, and provide facilities for recreation and leisure with the object of improving the quality of their lives.
To achieve this the Centre provides a wide range of educational and recreational courses. In addition, the Centre also offers a number of opportunities for education visits and holidays and free advisory sessions. With an on-site café the Centre provides activities and companionship morning and afternoon five days a week during term time, some weekends and during the summer holiday.
Public benefit
The Trustees have paid due regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit and accordingly report on the benefits brought to the public by its activities; namely educational courses, recreational and social opportunities and advisory talks. Feedback from students highlights the benefit and value of membership: "We are very lucky to have somewhere like the REC in Bedford. I love the atmosphere, the friends I have made over the years and the mental stimulation I get from continuing to study a language that isn't my own", "Wonderfully friendly place. Tutors are extremely knowledgeable. Good cakes and food."
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Educational Courses
Over the past year courses have been provided to our 1,056 members (808 in 2021-22), with 2.564 enrolments (2,049 in 2021-22) including those on the 9 courses over 2 weekends. Our 208 daytime and summer courses covered a wide range of subjects, the majority being academic non-vocational as befitting the student population. The range of educational backgrounds was wide with some students returning to learning for the first time since leaving formal education and others continuing a tradition of life-long learning. The Centre offered a wide range of course lengths and costs to suit all incomes and a diverse spectrum of subjects from art to science, languages and music, and physical activity. A limited number of evening courses have been running through the year. The purpose is to extend the REC's offer by appealing to a different demographic thereby increasing the number of members benefitting from courses at the Centre.
Recreational and Social Opportunities
A full programme of 8 educational trips to museums, exhibitions and theatres was organised and proved popular. Successful quiz nights were very well received by members as well as assisting fundraising.
The Rothsay Ramblers Group continued its walks through the past year, much appreciated by its 112 members
General
The year saw a full return to normality for the REC following the pandemic. Membership numbers increased, in part due to increased communication and marketing activity, and there was a greater take-up of classes. The year saw an increase in members contributing their time and skill as volunteers enabling the development of the reading room further enhancing the range of facilities available to members. Volunteers have also made a significant contribution to the market stall as well as the garden. The latter provides a good foundation for the coming years. Despite some staff turnover the existing and new members of staff have ensured the continued smooth running of classes and trips.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial position
The financial results for the year ended 31st August 2023 are set out on pages 6 to 15.
The Company, being limited by guarantee and registered as a Charity, is prohibited by its Memorandum from paying dividends to its members.
The surplus for the year of £26,259 (2022 - £144) has been added to reserves.
At the year end there was £36,274 on the General Fund (2022 - £10,015).
The Building Development Reserve, formerly the Appeal Fund and the Furniture and Equipment Fund was £nil at the year end (2022 - £nil).
The Centre's Website fund at the end of the year was £1,500 (2022 - £1,500).
A grant of £5,000 was received from Wixamtree to support marketing and diversification activities.
Reserves policy
In 2018 the Trustees reviewed the various reserves held and decided that the following arrangement better reflects the strategic and operational needs of the Centre. This has been done to bring more clarity to the financial position. The following reserves have been identified:
-
A General Fund comprising of an Operational Reserve and a Winding-up Reserve
-
A Building Development Reserve
Operational Reserve
The operational reserve includes money for running the Centre including the courses. Courses for the following academic year are advertised in June and bookings open at that time. Thus there is a slight phasing mismatch between income received before the start of the academic year and expenditure but this is balanced by the operational reserve. All other running expenses call on this reserve.
Winding-up reserve
This reserve is currently depleted following the building works and the Trustees will review and establish a reserve over the next few years.
Building Development reserve
The need for, and focus of this will be reviewed by the Trustees as future projects are identified.
FUTURE PLANS
The REC continues to be an important facility in the local community. The provision of educational courses plus the benefits of attending the Centre are very much appreciated by members.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 August 2023
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Recruitment and appointment of Trustees
As set out in the Articles of Association, all Trustees are appointed by the Charity's members at the Annual General Meeting held every November. Through newsletters, emails and class representative meetings the board actively encourages volunteers from the student body to serve as Trustees - Student Representatives. This helps to ensure that the interests of the membership is always a priority and provides additional communication channels. The Board also includes a local Borough Councillor nominated by Bedford Borough Council.
Trustees serve no more than 3 terms of office (a maximum of 12 years) unless asked by the Board if the majority of Trustees believe it is in the best interests of the Charity. Student Representatives serve a 3-year term (a maximum of 2 terms or 6 years) unless asked by the Board, if the majority of Trustees believe it is in the best interests of the Charity.
In the event a Trustee retires, a temporary appointment can be made by the Trustees until an election can be made at the next Annual General Meeting. No person may be appointed a Trustee under the age of 18, or have been declared bankrupt at any time. Trustees are required to declare that there are no reasons why they may not serve as a Trustee. No Trustee receives any remuneration for their role.
Organisational structure
The Board of Trustees administers the Charity. The Board is responsible for all strategic decisions regarding the running of the organisation, with the authority to delegate decisions to sub-committees where appropriate. The Board normally meets 5-6 times per annum and there are two sub-committees (Human Resources and Resources Management).
In addition, Trustees each take the lead on specific priorities e.g. marketing.
The Chief Officer is appointed by the Trustees to manage the Charity. The Chief Officer has delegated authority, within terms of delegation approved by the Trustees, for operational matters, including finance, employment and curriculum.
Induction and training of new trustees
All new Trustees undergo an induction with the Chair of the Board of Trustees and the Chief Officer, and receive an Induction Pack. Trustees are encouraged to attend regular training and briefing sessions, which is monitored by the Chief Officer.
Staff pay policy
All staff are paid as per Local and National pay agreements. All Tutor Staff are paid at a rate commensurate for adult education tutors locally. All staff pay is reviewed annually and is normally increased in accordance with the local authority pay increases.
Risk management
The Trustees have a Risk Management Policy and Framework and a Risk Register, which identifies the principal risks and uncertainties the Charity faces, the likely level of risk and its impact, a list of procedures and actions to mitigate the risks.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE ROTHSAY EDUCATION CENTRE (BEDFORD) LIMITED
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The Rothsay Education Centre (Bedford) Limited ('the Company')
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 August 2023.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity's 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.
Independent examiner's statement
Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the ERROR - relevant professional body must be completed, which is one of the listed bodies.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
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
-
the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).
I have no 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.
