Public benefit statement

The trustees confirm that they have complied with the Charities Act 2011, referring to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit, “Charities and Public Benefit”.

Voluntary Action Rotherham’s activities benefits the public of Rotherham Metropolitan Borough and its surrounding area, in particular the advancements of education, the protection of health, the relief of poverty, distress and sickness. The trustees ensure that the charity’s objectives support the public of the third sector helping organisations make a greater impact for all their beneficiaries.

Achievements

The country was still dealing with the impact of Covid 19 at the start of the financial year. A year living through the pandemic forced us to adapt to enable us to continue to deliver our critical services to the organisations and individuals that we directly support. The pandemic has forced us to streamline our services and improve efficiencies, and we will continue to develop and improve on these in the future.

We continued working with stakeholders to join up our Social Prescribing Service and Primary Care Network, additional NHS funding enabled us to look closer at the need of patients suffering with “long Covid”, which will continue into 2022/23.

We were successful in several grant applications that will aim to benefit the sector over the next several years. This included projects such as the Smiles for Miles base project, that aims to increased youth provision and support for Children and Young People in Rotherham over a two-year period between October 2021 and September 2023. The priorities for the project include early intervention, improving space and places that matter to communities, and bringing people together through strong relationships.

We are lead organisation in the Rotherham VCS bid to the Community Renewal Fund. The project, Anything’s Possible Rotherham!, is a partnership project involving 12 VCS organisation’s across Rotherham with the aim of investment into skills, investment in local communities and place and supporting employment. This project has continued into 2022/23 and continues to meet its original aims and objectives.

We were fortunate to benefit from Digital Aspirant Funding from NHSX, this enabled us to invest within our digital strategy, through improving our IT infrastructure, as well as enhancing additional support to VCS organisations through our purchase of the Grant Finder license, and the additional resources to update and improve VCS organisation’s presence through the Gismo website.

2021/22 was our first full year of the Creative People and Places Project (Flux). Some of the key achievements of this project during the year include – obtaining a full staff team, website, brand and communication strategy developed and implemented, commissioning of artist residence across multiple communities within Rotherham. The team delivered a “Skate and Arts Festival” across the town centre, attracting over 2,000 people. The project runs until March 2025 and we are excited and optimistic of the benefit that it will bring to Rotherham.

Our relationship with our funders has enabled us to obtain various streams of income, all of which will be expended on in future years, to support the VCS, based on the sectors need, and our charitable objectives.

This year VAR was reassessed for Customer 1st and the ISO 9001 Quality Standards. Both were successfully achieved.

TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT (Including Directors Report)

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

We have continued to provide: high quality communications, ensuring the VCS is well informed and engaged. Our weekly VAR bulletin continues to be important to organisations and individuals, being sent to over 1,800 email addresses. The VAR website sustained being an important method of VAR members receiving news and event information, we created a new VAR website in the year to reflect the increased usage of the website as a method to communicate to members. We continue to work in collaboration through partnerships, networks and consortiums, promoting the work and the successes of the VCS and feeding back the sectors requirements to stakeholders. The in person Audience with Sessions were still not possible throughout the year, but this is something that we plan to bring back when appropriate. We were grateful to bring back face to face training to groups, and will continue to develop and promote these. After much anticipation the Community Achievement awards returned in March 2022, and this enabled appropriate recognition of the VCS and the volunteers involved.

We have continued to provide: quality services ensuring the VCS has access to information, advice and support it needs, when it needs it. VAR directly distributed £1,205,780 in grants to 93 organisations as well as being able to support the sector in securing new funding, enhancing their organisations existence and development. Grant distributions are awarded in line with clear guidelines which ensure they reflect the charity’s objects and thereby advancing public benefit. During the year we have been able to support organisations through grant giving for various objectives, including mental health provision, provision of food to support families in need, programmes of activities to aid with building back communities lost through Covid.

We have continued to: be responsive and accountable to our members, representing the VCS, supporting and encouraging close partnership working. We have continued to diversify our income by providing professional and affordable services including Community Accountancy, Payroll Bureau Services, HR Advice and Support and Financial Management. .

We maintain our vision for a strong, vibrant voluntary and community action.

Performance Management Framework / Risk Action Plan

The trustees, in line with the agreed PMF, which sets out and assesses all major risks to the organisation, reviewed the analysis at regular intervals Five key performance areas with agreed KPI’s and RAG ratings were set, and those areas are

Financial review (including reserves policy)

As of 31 March 2022 the Consolidated Statement of Financial Activities shows income for the year of £4,660,860 (2021: £2,483,730). Expenditure for the year was £2,598,055 (2021: £1,945,374). At year end, the SOFA is showing a surplus of £37,380 (2021 deficit: £125,547), against our core activity (unrestricted funds). There were no transfers between funds (2021: £24,594). Due to us successfully exiting the South Yorkshire Pension fund in 2021, there have been no remeasurements on this benefit pension plan as there are no future potential liabilities relating to this. There is a net movement of £2,025,425 (2021: £523,781) on restricted funds, this is driven by projects being funded in advance.

The SOFA includes income of £20,631 (2021: £15,934) and expenditure of £20,631 (2021: £15,934) relating to our trading subsidiary, Spectrum Futures C.I.C.

At the year end, unrestricted fund balances are £966,453 (2021: £929,073) with restricted funds of £4,207,638 (2021: £2,182,213) giving the total year end fund position for 2022 of £5,174,091 (2021: £3,111,286).

The balance sheet as at 31 March 2022 also shows tangible assets of £764,372 (2021: £737,020). Debtors falling due within one year stand at £323,820 (2021: £48,272). Creditors falling due within one year stand at £756,856 (2021: £667,252).

For the year ending 31 March 2022, VAR Board have designated funds of £581,000 This reflects the provision for post March 2022 activity of £405,739, the provision towards the pension trust deficit of £115,261, and £60,000 towards repairs of the flat roof at the Spectrum.

It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds, which have not been designated for a specific use, should be maintained at a value of three to six months expenditure, of which the minimum three months expenditure equates to approximately £650,000. This level of general reserves would finance operations in the event of short term funding gaps, and finance immediate obligations should VAR lose its funding, or alternatively in the event that the organisation should need to close. At 31 March 2022, our general free reserves stood at £369,142, substantially below our minimum target level. The Trustees are aware of this and aim to build on general reserves in the future years by continuing the development of further income generating activities to support our grant dependency, and to ensure we maintain a high level of astute financial management. Our subsidiary organisation, Spectrum Futures CIC, has allowed VAR to expand its target area and client base further afield and this in turn assists in our support to the sector.

Treasurer’s Statement

The finance function within Voluntary Action Rotherham is responsible for:-

Total income for the year has increased by £2,177k, driven mainly through restricted grants being received in advanced, for projects and programmes starting in 2022/23. These have been disclosed on pages 22 & 23, and the breakdown of these restricted funds are on pages 30, 31, 32 and 33. Grants distributed out to the sector in 2021/22 equated to £1,206k, which amounted to 26% of our total income received during the year. We continue to actively seek out additional funding to support our main aims and objectives, and anticipate substantial grant distribution in 2022/23.

VAR’s trading subsidiary Spectrum Futures CIC again supported the charity with further income generated activities engaged by the community. The income for the trading subsidiary increased from the prior year due to the increased supporting activities through our community accountancy, payroll bureau and HR service. The trading accounts for Spectrum Futures CIC showed a break-even position for 21/22, in line with previous years.

Having previously designated funding for future periods, the trustees of the charity will maintain this fund to support its core activity where there is a shortfall of direct funding. This designation of £406k will allow for further provision to assist the core activity for future periods post March 2022. This year the trustees agreed to designate an additional £60k (from unrestricted funds) to plan for future repairs to the flat roof. The trustees will also safeguard the designated pension fund in support of the pension deficits impending on the Pension Trust pension scheme.

Plans for future periods

We know that place based NHS Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) are being replaced by sub regional bodies: Integrated Care Boards (ICB), as part of the Integrated Care Systems (ICS). The Rotherham CCG has been a significant funder / commissioners of services with VAR. Our understanding is that one of the options for ICBs is likely to be to delegation to place based partnership arrangements. VAR will seek to influence and input both into place based arrangements and what happens at a South Yorkshire level.

We developed a VCS and VAR Recovery Plan during 21/22 and for the year ahead, we want to build on this, taking account of the findings from the VAR Annual Survey and the planned ‘State of the Sector’ analysis.

As a sector we do also want to input into opportunities, such as the UK Shared Prosperity Fund and in the ‘Levelling Up’ agenda.

Structure, governance and management

VAR’s governance

Voluntary Action Rotherham is a registered charity and a company limited by guarantee. The charity is operated under the rules of its Memorandum and Articles of Association, first issued on its incorporation on 17 February 1988, amended in December 2005, November 2010, November 2013 and again amended by a special resolution in November 2017. This has ensured we are resilient, our Board composition is fit for purpose, and we continue to be driven by the values which underpin our work.

VAR’s Board of Trustees

VAR‘s Board is made up of nine trustees, three partner advisors and various representatives from partner agencies who act in a non-voting capacity. All trustees and co-optees also act as directors of the company and are notified to Companies House. The number of Trustees should not be less than five (5) and no more than thirteen (13), and the chief executive acts as company secretary.

VAR’s Board provides the strategic direction and decisions regarding the organisation. It meets bi-monthly and is underpinned by the executive group which also meet bi-monthly and has decision making responsibilities delegated from the board. The senior management team meet with the chief executive on a bi- weekly basis to agree operational decisions in line with overall strategic directions. The chief executive and the chair also meet regularly. VAR’s full organisational structure is available on our website at www.varotherham.org.uk.

In 2021/22, VAR set up a finance sub-committee, consisting of the treasurer, another trustee, the CEO and finance manager. This enables management accounts, forecasts and balance sheets to be scrutinised and analysed in detail, providing additional assurance to the board of the overall finance management of the charity.

VAR is underpinned by a range of HR policies and procedures as well as financial procedures which are approved by VAR board. All of these are reviewed annually, and amended as appropriate, and reported to VAR board for their approval.

The trustees have conducted an assessment of the major risks to the organisation during September 2021. Each funding proposal underpinning VAR’s activities is accompanied by a delivery plan and reports against agreed separate risk assessments. We have combined all of the individual risk assessments into an overall risk management framework for the organisation and this is reviewed by The Board on a six monthly basis. This underpins the performance management framework and shows the impact on systems, procedures, staffing, communications and funding.

Recruitment and appointment of the trustees and key management personnel remuneration policy

Trustees are recruited and appointed from VAR’s membership base, or as Independent Trustees and in line with VAR's Memorandum and Articles of Association. Recruitment for potential new trustees is conducted via VAR’s mailings, newsletters and website. Role descriptions exist for trustee and officer posts. Elections to the trustee board takes place via a postal ballot of VAR members prior to the Annual General Meeting (AGM) and are ratified at the AGM. If there are the same number of applicants and vacancies, an uncontested election is held which is approved by members at the AGM. Trustees are appointed for a term of three years and at each AGM, one third of the board of trustees, taken from those trustees who have served the longest, are expected to stand down. Trustees may stand for re-election if they wish and in exceptional circumstances a retiring trustee may serve a further consecutive term; but will be subject to annual appointment agreed by existing Trustees and also agreed by members at the Annual General Meeting.

TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT (Including Directors Report)

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

Appointment of the executive places of chair, vice chair(s) and treasurer take place at the first board meeting after the AGM and is ratified by members of the board. All new trustees are invited to an induction meeting and must sign a memorandum of agreement. VAR is a company limited by guarantee and all trustees are notified as directors to Companies House.

The key management structure of VAR consists of the Chief Executive, the Director of Services (Projects), the Director of Services (Infrastructure), the HR Advisor and the Finance Manager. Remuneration of key staff is maintained in line with cost of living awards, where appropriate and across the organisation, in line with any pay grades and approved by VAR board.

Research and development

The last time VAR commissioned research into the state of the voluntary and community sector in Rotherham, was during 2016, via the State of the Sector Research. Funding was secured via the Rotherham Together Partnership during 19/20 to carry out an up to date State of the Sector Research. As a result of the Covid 19 Pandemic, the significant national lockdowns and the resultant changes and or cessation of some VCS services / activities; it has been agreed to undertake the ‘state of the sector’ in 2022/23, when there is a degree of stability for VCS organisations to be in a position to respond with a degree of clarity. This does not mean we are not aware of the issues and challenges facing the VCS.

Each year, VAR conducts an Annual Survey of voluntary and community organisations who have received support services during the year and this is measured and compared against the previous Annual Survey results.

In addition, specific pieces of research are commissioned as required, e.g. evaluation work to measure the success of any pilot projects.

Trustees’ responsibilities

The trustees (who are also directors of Voluntary Action Rotherham 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).

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 of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS AND TRUSTEES OF VOLUNTARY ACTION ROTHERHAM

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Voluntary Action Rotherham (the ‘parent charitable company’) and its subsidiary (the ‘group’) for the year ended 31 March 2022 which comprise Statement of Financial Activities, Balance sheets, Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the group and parent charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the group and parent charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the trustees’ annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information included in the trustees’ annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

Page 10

BHP LLP

VOLUNTARY ACTION ROTHERHAM LIMITED

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS AND TRUSTEES OF VOLUNTARY ACTION ROTHERHAM

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

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 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 financial 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 to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the group and parent charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the directors’ report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities Act 2011 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement (page 8) , the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

Page 11

BHP LLP

VOLUNTARY ACTION ROTHERHAM LIMITED

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS AND TRUSTEES OF VOLUNTARY ACTION ROTHERHAM

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the group’s and parent charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the group or the parent charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed auditor under the Companies Act 2006 and section 151 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with those acts.

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 auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements 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-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The specific procedures for this engagement and the extent to which these are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

We assessed the susceptibility of the company’s financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by;

To address the risks of fraud through management bias and override controls, we:

Page 12

BHP LLP

VOLUNTARY ACTION ROTHERHAM LIMITED

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS AND TRUSTEES OF VOLUNTARY ACTION ROTHERHAM

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to:

Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charitable company’s members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and to the charitable company’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company’s members and its trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and the charitable company’s members as a body and the charitable company’s trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

A further description of our responsibilities is available on the FRC's website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/auditors/audit-assurance/auditor-s-responsibilitiesfor-the-audit-of-the-fi/description-of-theauditor%E2%80%99s-responsibilities-for. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

1 Summary of significant accounting policies

(a) General information and basis of preparation

Voluntary Action Rotherham is a charitable company established by constitution on 13 January 1981 in the United Kingdom. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the charity. The address of the registered office is given in the charity information on page 1 of these financial statements. The nature of the charity’s operations and principal activities are on page 2.

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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) issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted Practice.

The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain items at fair value. The financial statements are prepared in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £.

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.

(b) Basis of consolidation

The consolidated financial statements incorporate those of Voluntary Action Rotherham and its only subsidiary. An undertaking is a subsidiary if the group has control over its financial and operating policies.

All intra-group transactions, balances and unrealised gains on transactions between group companies are eliminated on consolidation. Unrealised losses are eliminated unless the transactions provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred.

(c) Funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity.

Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the Trustees for particular purposes or projects which they have decided to undertake, the trustees have the option to undesignated these funds should they require to do so.

Restricted funds are subject to specific trusts which may have been declared by the funders or with their authority (e.g. in a public appeal), but still within the objects of VAR. They may be restricted income funds which are expendable at the discretion of the trustees/directors in furtherance of a particular project or objective of VAR. Alternatively, they may be capital funds where the funds are required to be invested in fixed assets for charity use or in investment assets.

(d) Income recognition

All income is included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when the charity is legally entitled to the income after any performance conditions have been met, the amount can be measured reliably and it is probable that the income will be received.

The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:

Voluntary income is received by way of grants, donations and gifts and is included in full in the SOFA when receivable.

(e) Expenditure recognition

Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis when a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is included as part of the expenditure to which it relates.

(f) Support costs allocation

Support costs are those that assist the work of the charity but do not directly represent charitable activities and include office costs, governance costs, administrative payroll costs. They are incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the charity. Where support costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to cost of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities on a basis consistent with use of the resources.

The analysis of these costs is included in note 8.

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

(g) Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost (or deemed cost) or valuation less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as intended. Only fixed assets costing more than £1,000 are capitalised and depreciated.

Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset on a systematic basis over its expected useful life as follows:

Freehold buildings Straight line over 50 years Fixtures, fittings & equipment 33% straight line

The company has opted to charge no depreciation on assets in the year of addition.

The property is included at the trustees’ best estimate of market value. It is the Charity’s policy to carry out a formal valuation of the properties every 5 years and to take advice annually as to any material movements in value.

(h) Employee benefits

The charity operates a defined contribution plan for the benefit of its employees. Contributions are expensed as they become payable. The assets of this scheme are entirely separable to those of the charity. The pension cost shown represents contributions payable by the charity on behalf of the employees.

The charity also contributes to the Pensions Trust Growth Plan for its employees. This is in most respects a money purchase arrangement, but does include certain guaranteed benefit elements. The Plan is a multiemployer scheme.

Since the charity has entered into an agreement (the Recovery Plan that determines how each employer within the scheme will fund the overall deficit), the contributions paid are shown in the income and expenditure account.

(i) Tax

The charity is an exempt charity within the meaning of schedule 3 of the Charities Act 2011 and is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes.

(j) Going concern

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient, with the level of reserves, for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.

c) Multi employer pension plan

The charity participates in the scheme, a multi-employer scheme which provides benefits to some 950 nonassociated participating employers. The scheme is a defined benefit scheme in the UK. It is not possible for the company to obtain sufficient information to enable it to account for the scheme as a defined benefit scheme. Therefore it accounts for the scheme as a defined contribution scheme.

The scheme is subject to the funding legislation outlined in the Pensions Act 2004 which came into force on 30 December 2005. This, together with documents issued by the Pensions Regulator and Technical Actuarial Standards issued by the Financial Reporting Council, set out the framework for funding defined benefit occupational pension schemes in the UK.

The scheme is classified as a 'last-man standing arrangement'. Therefore the company is potentially liable for other participating employers' obligations if those employers are unable to meet their share of the scheme deficit following withdrawal from the scheme. Participating employers are legally required to meet their share of the scheme deficit on an annuity purchase basis on withdrawal from the scheme.

A full actuarial valuation for the scheme was carried out at 30 September 2017. This valuation showed assets of £794.9m, liabilities of £926.4m and a deficit of £131.5m. To eliminate this funding shortfall, the Trustee has asked the participating employers to pay additional contributions to the scheme as follows:

Deficit contributions

From 1 April 2016 to 30 September 2025:

From 1 April 2016 to 30 September 2028:

£12,945,440, per annum (payable monthly and increasing by 3% each on 1st £54,560 per annum (payable monthly and increasing by 3% each on 1st

23 Pensions and other post-retirement benefits (continued)

The recovery plan contributions are allocated to each participating employer in line with their estimated share of the Series 1 and Series 2 scheme liabilities. VAR’s share of these revised contributions was £590 during the year to March 2022, previously £572 to March 2021.

Where the scheme is in deficit and where the charity has agreed to a deficit funding arrangement the charity recognises a liability for this obligation. The amount recognised is the net present value of the deficit reduction contributions payable under the agreement that relates to the deficit. The present value is calculated using the discount rate detailed in these disclosures. The unwinding of the discount rate is recognised as a finance cost.

The present value of the deficit repayment obligation, as noted above, has not been provided for in the Balance Sheet because it is immaterial.

VAR paid contributions at the rate of 6% during the accounting period. Members paid contributions at the rates between 0% and 28% during the accounting period.

When an employer withdraws from a multi-employer defined benefit pension scheme which is in deficit, the employer is required by law to pay its share of the deficit, calculated on a statutory basis (known as the buy-out basis). The calculation basis that applies to the Growth Plan was amended due to a change in the definition of money purchase contained in the Pensions Act 2011 and therefore Series 3 liabilities have to be included in the calculation of an employer’s debt on withdrawal.

VAR has been notified by the Pensions Trust of the estimated employer debt on withdrawal from the Plan based on the financial position of the Plan as at 30 September 2019. As of this date, the estimated employer debt for VAR was £105,261 (2021: £105,261). The decrease in the estimated debt liability is due to greater than expected investment returns, at a time of reduced government bonds yields, which increase liabilities in the scheme. A designated fund has been created by the trustees to reflect this potential future liability.
