The RT Big Survey This year we launched a survey to get feedback on the services we provide and to help us plan future activities. The survey was open to anyone aiid as part of the survey we asked what was important to people. 90 % of people who respond to the survey rated us at four stars or above (out of 5). And the top four things that were most important to people were, getting together and meeting with other people, taking part in physical activities, having access to opportunities for children to learn and play and having access to low-cost activities. l-he R T S,iJriieJ,' CEO Report This was a challenging year for the Trust, as it was for the whole of the VCS sector in Nottingham, primarily due to the Local Authority issuing a Section 114 Notice during this period. As part of this, Nottingham City Council undertook a process to advise the public of cuts being made across their budget, including a total withdrawal of all VCS support grants. This was poorly communicated and ultimately approved. The impact to The Renewal Trust and local communities was the loss of the Area Based Grant and all support for children and young people's activity and bespoke employment support in the area. Beyond the immediate impact of terminating the Area Based Grant, Nottingham City Council failed to deliver on their Management Agreement for St Ann's Allotments with Hungerhill Developments Ltd (HDL) and advised that all funding for this historic site would cease in March 2025. Despite protracted negotiations with Nottingham City Council, we were unable to reach a satisfactory conclusion. The consistent under funding of the Management Agreement by Nottingham City Council and the lack of future investment, led Directors for HDL to determine that the position was no longer financially viable and agreed to communicate this and our intention to issue notice to end the lease in 2025. INhilst this is a very disappointing position to be in, HDL have managed and delivered a successful restoration and conservation programme to protect of a key national heritage site. We will return the Grade Il. listed site to Nottingham City Council with over 650 tenants and community organisations using the space and the land and heritage features protected for the future and future generations to come. We continue to wait for a decision on a key community facility lease with Nottingham City Council which has now been in process for over five years, this has prevented us from accessing some grants and opportunities for local communities. Furthermore, we await another lease decision on a property in the Hungerhill Trading Ltd portfolio for future periods. The challenges of working with Nottingham City Council and the changing landscape for our communities in light of the budget pressures, post Covid era and the cost of living impacts moved our Re-lmagining the Trust work forward with Trustee's - reviewing and refreshing our priorities and redesigning our future work. This work platformed the success of the Feel Good programme that emerged through the Covid period and now includes Mini Movers, Feel Good Gold, Feel Good activities and events and support through Feel Good Families as our core community offers. The Renewal Trust
Throughout this period we continued to lead the sector in offering opportunities to connect and build relationships, through our Children and Young People, Health and Wellbeing, Haidship and More In Common networks. This has been a very challenging year 2nd the support and guidance of the Board of Trustee's has been invaluable. Trustees generously provide time and expertise not just to address the challenges of the Trust but also in building relationships and opportunities. We are very fortunate to have a very loyal and committed team of regular volunteers across our programmes who donate their time and energy and ensure our projects are accessible and successful. This year we had support through corporate volunteers from Experian and Copley Scientific, which really helped progress Cherry Lodge as a community facility. Thank you to all our volunteersl And throughout this tumultuous year, the staff team have been unwavering in their commitment to providing opportunity and support to our local communities. Thank you to all our staffl Plans for Future Periods Trustees have started work with the CEO and the Senior Management Team to undertake a re-imagining process, to actively review our charitable objects and ensure they still reflect and address community needs and any future delivery plans meet those needs. This work is essential in the current financial operating environment with Nottingham City Council and likely future cuts which will further impact our communities. Regular reviews of our iisk analysis will ensure the key strategic risks of the current operating environment are tracked and addressed appropriately. Financial Review The charity and its beneficiaries have benefitted from UK SPF funding and Holiday Activities (HAF) funding in this period. The UK SPF funding was secured to increase the income generation potential of the Brendon Lawrence Sports Centre and to try and secure its future sustainability. The HAF provided positive activities for young people in receipt of free school meals during the holiday periods. It is not expected that these programmes will continue to benefit the charity in the future. The future financial insecurity of the Local Authority, Nottingham City Council will impact the charity directly in the future with the loss of the Area Based Grant and the return of St Ann's Allotments in light of no further financial investment. However, the failing, under resourced and underperforming local authority position will also impact on future property negotiations and remains a key short and medium term risk. Action has been taken to mitigate the risk of the loss of Area Based Grant and St Ann's Allotments. Principle funding sources include income from the trading company Hungerhill Trading, UKSPF, HAF, hire income from the Brendon Lawrence Sports Centre and charitable funding from Independent Age, Children in Need and Nottingham City Council in this period. Staff Remuneration The Renewal Trust and subsidiaries are committed to recruiting high calibre people to represent our interests. We also believe in rewarding staff fairly for jobs they do and in fostering a positive working environment, we believe our salaries and our terms and conditions reflect this. As such we have a robust Remuneration Policy which is overseen by the HR Sub Committee and decisions ratified by the Renewal Trust Board. 12 The Renewal Trust
We are proud to be a Living Wage Employer. New posts are benchmarked against market comparables. Each year the HR Sub Committee will consider cost of living adjustments against affordability, performance and recent Cost of Living adjustments. The Renewal Trust HR Sub Committee assumes the responsibilities of a remuneration committee and comprises the Chair of the Board along with at least two other trustees. Formal consideration of remuneration matters will take place annually however. they may also be considered at other meetings if ad hoc issues arise during the year. The CEO attends Committee meetings. Decisions regarding the CEO'S salary are considered by the HR subgroup without the CEO being present and will include an external independent advisor. This year we commissioned an independent salary benchmarking review, reviewing all staff salaries and resulting in a new pay structure approved by the HR Sub Committee. Reserves The Renewal Trusts policy is to hold a minimum of three months of planned annual expenditure in short term reserves, cash or cash equivalents, to ensure continued financial security, accommodate monthly fluctuations in income and expenditure, provide a buffer in the event of a significant loss of funding, continue projects in the event of contracts being terminated, provide for any other contingencies and meet unanticipated cash flow needs. The Reserves Policy is being appropriately implemented and will continue to be reviewed by the Finance and Fundraising Subgroup. At 31 March 2024 The Renewal Trust held restricted funds £97,517 (2023: £nil). As of the 31 March 2024, The Renewal Trust held £948,888 of unrestricted reserves (2023.. £826,382), of which £506,250 relates to the revaluation reserve (2023: £472,500) and positive unrestricted reserves of £442,638 (2023: £353,882). The level of free reserves held by The Renewal Trust at the 31 March 2024 was £239,901 (2023. £149,420). 13 The Renewal Ttusl
Statement of Trustees. Responsibilities The trustees (who are also directors of The Renewal Trust for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Directors 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. Under company law the trustees must not approve the financial statements Ljnless they are satisfied that they 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.. select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP 2019 (FRS 102)., 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. prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation. The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate 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 hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. In so far as the trustees are aware.. there is no relevant audil information of which the charitable company's auditor is unaware., and the trustees have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the auditor is aware of that information. The Directors Report was approved by the Board of Trustees on behalf by. and signed on its Iversidge Trustee 14 The Renewal Trust
Independent Auditors, Report to the Trustees to The Renewal Trust for the period ended 31 March 2024 Opinion We have audited the financial statements of The Renewal Trust (the 'parent charitable company,) and its subsidiaries (the 'group') for the year ended 31 March 2024 which comprise the group and parent statements of financial activities, the group and parent balance sheets, the consolidated cash flow statement and notes to the fiiiancial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standai-ds, 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: give a true and fair view of the state of the group's and parent charitable company's affairs as at 31 March 2024, and of the group's incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended; have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. and have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. 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 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 Directors report , other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information. 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. 15 The Renewal Trust
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 course of the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we ideiitify 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.. the information given in the Directors, report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements. and the Directors, report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. 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 misstalements in the Directors, report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion.. adequate accounting records have not been kept by the parent charitable company, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or the parent charitable company's financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns. or certain disclosures of trustees, remuneration specified by law are not made., or we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.. or the trustees were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies, regime and take advantage of the small companies, exemption from the requirement to prepare a strategic report. Responsibilities of trustees As explained more fully in the trustees, responsibilities statement, set out within the Directors Report, the trustees (who are also the directors of the parent 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. In preparing the financial statements. the trustees are responsible for assessing the group 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. 16 The Renewal Trust
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements 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 assuran 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 extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below. The extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities including fraud Our approach to identifying and assessing the risk of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, was as follows: The engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations., We identified the laws and regulations applicable to the group through discussions with trustees and other management, and from our knowledge and experience of the charity sector and grant providers; We focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the group, including the Companies Act 2006, Charities Act 2011, taxation legislation and data protection, anti- bribery, employment, environmental and health and safety legislation- We assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management and inspecting legal correspondence., and Identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit. We assessed the susceptibility of the group's financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by.. Making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud. Considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations. and Understanding the design of the group's remuneration policies. To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we: Performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships; Tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions,. 17 The Renewal Trust
Assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates set out in note 2 were indicative of potential bias. and Investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions. In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to" Agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documeiitation; Reading the minutes of meetings of those charged with governan. Enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims., and Reviewing correspondence with HMRC, relevant regulators and the company's legal advisors. There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the trustees and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any. Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion. A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: https'.lkn.frc.org.uklauditorslaudit- assurancelauditor-s-responsibilities-for-the-audit-of-the-fildescription-of-the- auditor % E20/080 /099s-responsibilities-for. This description forms part of our auditor's report. 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. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members 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, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed. /////2b Melvin Bailey FCCA DChA (Senior Statutory Auditor) For and on behalfof Rogers Spenr Chartered Certified Accountants statutory Auditor Newstead House Pelham Road Nottingham NG5 1AP Rogers Spenceris eligible lo acl as an auditorin temis of sectn 1212 of the Companies Acl 2006. 18 The Renewal Trust
