TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
The Trustees present their Annual Report together with the financial statements of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2021. The Annual Report serves the purpose of both a Trustees Report and a Directors Report under company law. The Trustees confirm that the Annual Report and the financial statements of the charitable company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charitable companies governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).
Since the Company qualifies as small under section 382 of the Companies Act 2006, the Strategic Report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report & Directors Report) Regulations 2013 has been omitted.
Objectives and activities
a. Policies and objectives
In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance ‘Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)’.
The object and principal activity of the company is the provision of adventure, education and leisure activities to the residents of Leicestershire. Our approach to fulfilling this object remains unchanged from the previous year, with a mission to ‘provide adventurous activity experiences designed to stimulate, educate and motivate young people and others at affordable prices, in a safe and challenging environment.’
With continuous development of the site, the facilities and staff, the aim is to find ways to improve the provision of activities and services offered to the visitors to the LOPC, supporting the community to undertake new, exciting and/or challenging activities, which are both educational and recreational, in a safe and supportive environment. It is the aim of the organisation that the experiential learning opportunity provided by quality instruction on activities will help create positive experiences, supporting physical and mental well-being and a positive impact on society.
Increasingly, the Charity is working to actively include people with disabilities, those from disadvantaged / deprived backgrounds and from the diverse ethnic population society is made up of.
The full range of activities offered by the LOPC can be seen on our website: www.lopc.co.uk and currently include: Abseiling Aerial Trek, Archery, Bell-boating, Bush-craft, Crate Stack Challenge, Canoeing, Climbing, Kata-Kanuing, Kayaking, Leap-of-faith, Powerfan, Team-building activities and Zip-line.
b. Public benefit statement
In planning our activities for the year we kept in mind the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit at our Trustees meetings.
Leicester Outdoor Pursuits Centre ("LOPC") has a mission to provide adventurous activity experiences designed to stimulate, educate & motivate young people & others at affordable prices, in a safe challenging environment.
LOPC is developing the facilities, activities and programs to meet the local need as identified through local strategies and feedback. This enables LOPC to offer opportunities for local people to engage in exciting and adventurous activities, thereby creating a sustainable local community facility for all people of all ages.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
Achievements and performance
a. Main achievements of the Company
In common with other providers globally, the Coronavirus Pandemic, also known as Covid-19, has significantly impacted the Leicester Outdoor Pursuits Centre over the past year. The forced closure by the UK government of all Outdoor Adventure and Leisure facilities for much of the year reduced the capacity to operate and thus generate funds required to sustain the Centre in the usual way. It was necessary for the Centre to access both government and private grant funding to support the continued operation of the Centre and prevent permanent closure.
Further funding has also been obtained in grants and public donations to the LOPC, for continued capital projects, replacement and maintenance work on site, which will contribute to the future success of the business.
During the period of forced closure, most staff were ‘furloughed’ using the government furlough scheme to protect the long-term future staffing of the Centre and prevent redundancies.
In between the periods of forced closure, the Centre managed to bring furloughed staff back into work, with support of the flexible furlough scheme, to operate a reduced program of activities, in line with the government ‘Safe and Secure’ instructions, conforming to ‘We are Good to Go’ guidance.
With a reduced program of activities, closure of schools and constraints on the movement of people (particularly in Leicester, who were subject to the strongest level of restriction throughout 2020), the main provision of activities over the past year became limited to providing sessions for Home Education groups, children with special educational needs and those with challenging behavior. The unique facilities offered by the LOPC to the community have proven to be a valuable asset to the physical and mental well-being of those participants who were able to access the Centre.
Investing in the future of the Centre, during the past year the LOPC have completed work on a newly reconstructed Kayak Launch which was wholly funded by donations. The kayak cage was extended, the roof of the changing rooms was re-felted and new shelters we built in the bushcraft area among some of the site improvements.
We continue to work with NGB’s to update courses and ensure they are relevant and current for the sector and were able to provide a small number of courses with reduced numbers throughout the year, where social distancing measures permitted.
Income from the Charitable Activities provided for the year 2020-21 reduced by 75% based on comparison from the year 2019-20. Working to support education and community groups, enabling provision of activities in an ‘Outdoor’ setting has enabled the LOPC to generate £473,248 in income, demonstrating the demand for services even when provision is restricted.
Expenditure has also decreased for the year, but this is largely as a result of the Centre being closed with reduced overheads and reduced staffing costs due to the furlough scheme. Although there were once again increases in the National Living Wage, these costs have not been realised, again due to the furlough scheme.
The LOPC did recruit one new apprentice on the Institute of Outdoor Learning (IOL) ‘Outdoor Instructor Apprenticeship in March 2020. As this person was unable to be furloughed, the LOPC continued to support them whilst the Centre was closed to protect the future staffing of the Centre.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
Financial review
a. Going concern
After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies. This consideration has taken into account the expected future impact of Covid-19 on the charity as far as it can be determined and the Trustees remain satisfied that the going concern principle remains appropriate.
b. Reserves policy
The Statement of Financial Activities shows a net surplus of £99,209 (2020: net surplus of £87,321) and reserves of £385,630 (2020: £286,421).
The forecast over the next year in terms of reserves funds is for a decline. The Trustees expect that the Coronavirus pandemic and the knock on impact of reduced group sizes, restricted operation and increased costs associated with maintaining social distancing will result in increased costs and a decrease in the potential to generate any surplus. As a result of this, the Trustees predict that there will be a need to access grant funding over the following year to improve the sustainability of the Centre, previously the Centre has been able to generate enough income from activities to cover outgoing costs. Cash reserves, that have been built up to allow for crisis and help future investment, may need to be drawn upon to support future expenditure at the Centre. The directors ultimately wish to generate an unrestricted reserves level of 3-6 months expenditure, but the current climate may impact the ability to achieve this in the short-term.
Free reserves represents unrestricted funds of £200,078 less intangible assets of £3,955. At the year end, the company had free reserves of £196,123 (2020: £103,834) which equates to approximately 3 months.
Given that the estimated life of the High Ropes Course is until 2028/2029, the Centre are attempting to build sufficient reserves to have funding to cover the majority of the cost of future replacement. With the main building built using large quantities of asbestos, the Centre is also attempting to build sufficient reserves to contribute to future maintenance of / redevelopment of the Centre facilities.
c. Investments policy
The directors have considered the way in which the company invests its funds and considers the most appropriate approach is for the funds to be held in bank accounts where the money is readily available.
d. Principal risks and uncertainties
The Directors have again discussed all the major risks to the Company during the year. They have developed systems and strategies to control these risks and mitigate any effect they may have on the Centre. The Directors will continue to review these on a regular basis.
At present time the greatest risk is from the ongoing global pandemic and its future consequences which at present are unknown. There are ongoing risks from flooding and although these are an annual concern, being based on a flood plain, to date we have been able to continue to operate with a reduced capacity in flood conditions.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Leicester Outdoor Pursuits Centre ('the Company')
I report to the charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2021.
Responsibilities and Basis of Report
As the Trustees of the Company (and 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 the Company's accounts 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 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 Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, 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.
This report is made solely to the Company's Trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the Company's Trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an Independent Examiner's Report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Company and the Company's Trustees as a body, for my work or for this report.

2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.3 Income
All income is recognised once the Company has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
For donations to be recognised the charity will have been notified of the amounts and the settlement date. If there are conditions attached to the donation and this requires a level of performance before entitlement can be obtained then income is deferred until those conditions are fully met or the fulfillment of those conditions is within the control of the charity and it is probable that they will be fulfulled.
Donated facilities and donated professional services are recognised in income at their fair value when their economic benefit is probable, it can be measured reliably and the charity has control over the item. Fair value is determined on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity. For example the amount the charity would be willing to pay in the open market for such facilities and services. A corresponding amount is recognised in expenditure.
No amount is included in the financial statements for volunteer time in line with the SORP (FRS 102). Further detail is given in the Trustees' Annual Report.
Where practicable, gifts in kind donated for distribution to the beneficiaries of the charity are included in donations in the financial statements upon receipt. If it is impracticable to assess the fair value at receipt of if the costs to undertake such a valuation outweigh any benefits, then the fair value is recognised as a component of donations when it is distributed and an equivalent amount recognised as charitable expenditure.
Fixed asset gifts in kind are recognised when receivable and are included at fair value. They are not deferred over the life of the asset.
Income from trading activities includes income earned from fundraising events and trading activities to raise funds for the charity. Income is received in exchange for supplying goods and services in order to raise funds and is recognised when entitlement has occured.
Income from government and other grants are recognised at fair value when the charity has entitlement after any performance conditions have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. If entitlement is not met then these amounts are deferred.
Investment income is earned through holding assets for investment purposes such as shares and property. It includes dividends, interest and rent. It is included when the amount can be measured reliably. Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method and dividend and rent income is recognised as the charity's right to receive payment is establised.

2.3 Income (continued)
2.4 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, 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 of 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 which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Company's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.
All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.
2.5 Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the Company; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the institution with whom the funds are deposited.
2.6 Taxation
The Company is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the Company is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.
2.7 Intangible assets and amortisation
Intangible assets are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.
Intangible assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.
Amortisation is provided on intangible assets at rates calculated to write off the cost of each asset on a straight-line basis over its expected useful life.
Amortisation is provided on the following basis:

2.7 Intangible assets and amortisation (continued)
Provisions are made for impairment as required.
2.8 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Tangible fixed assets costing more than £500, are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives.
Depreciation is provided on the following bases:
- Property improvements 5% straight line - Fixtures and fittings 33% straight line - Activities equipment 20% or 33% straight line
2.9 Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
2.10 Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
2.11 Liabilities and provisions
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.
Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Company anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.
Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities as a finance cost.

2.12 Financial instruments
The Company only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments.

2.13 Operating leases
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities on a straight line basis over the lease term.
2.14 Pensions
The Company operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the Company to the fund in respect of the year.
