Bournemouth Young Men's Christian Association Trustees report for the Year Ended 31 March 2025

The purpose of this report is for Bournemouth YMCA’s Board of Trustees to present its audited financial statements for the year ended March 2025, which have been prepared in accordance with the statement.

Objectives and Activities

The Charities area of activity, to further its purpose for the public benefit, continues to operate in Social Housing, Children and Family Work, Youth Work and Health and Fitness work with the aim being to make a positive impact in mind, body and spirit on each person and ultimately transform people’s lives for the better.

Bournemouth Young Men’s Christian Association is a charitable Housing Association incorporated as a company limited by guarantee and registered with the Homes and Communities Agency. It is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association.

YMCA’s vision in England and Wales is of an inclusive Christian movement transforming communities so that all people can belong, contribute and thrive.

Structure, Governance and Management

Bournemouth YMCA is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association. This includes the Paris Basis of the YMCA 1855 – “The YMCA seek to reunite those who, regarding Jesus Christ as their God and Saviour according to the Holy Scriptures, desire to be His disciples in their faith and in their life, and to associate their efforts to the extension of His Kingdom.” Trustees are elected Full Members of the Association at the Annual General Meeting. The Board of Trustees have power of co-option, up to one third of its numbers during the year and such person co-opted are eligible for election at the next AGM.

A review of the major risks to which the Charity is exposed is undertaken annually and systems established to mitigate those risks. The continual updating of Policies and Procedures remained a key priority together with the Risk Register. Key Performance Indicators are set for each Department and ultimately drilled down to the performance of each individual. Annual Appraisals/Support reviews are undertaken which allows for a continuing assessment of performance and corrective action if required.

The Board of Trustees delegate day to day responsibility to the Chief Executive Officer, Gareth Sherwood. The Trustees have had regard to Charity Commission guidance on public benefit.

Recruitment and appointment of new trustees

Board members are recruited with the assistance of a skills matrix for need and experience required on the Board at the time. All Board members must be Christians as per the articles below and are recruited from the full membership of the Association. Board members are voted on to the Board at the Annual AGM meeting and will consist of between 6-12 people.

Policies and procedures for induction and training of trustees

Trustee induction procedures include key documents, support from fellow trustees, introductions to management and front line staff, a meeting with other trustees, preliminary attendance of a board meeting, and invitations to meet beneficiaries, service users, and supporters. Training includes safeguarding, GDPR, health and safety and specific training for trustees in areas of governance and finance.

Arrangements for setting pay and remuneration of key management personnel and any benchmarks, parameters or criteria used

A benchmarking exercise takes place in Q3 in preparation for the budget setting process at the beginning of Q4. When setting pay a number of parameters are considered, including for example; the cost of living, living wage, job role and responsibilities, inflation and affordability.

Risks

The major risks during the period were the financial and operational performance due to the growing impact of inflation, the costof-living crisis, and the ongoing war in Ukraine; specifically causing increases to cost of materials, a more competitive fundraising environment, rising costs and utilities and reduction in customer confidence. There was also the impact of staff vacancies nationally and locally and supply chains affected by various national and international crisis, although this is now starting to show signs of improvement. The accounting period for this report covers twelve months from 1 April 2024 to 31 March 2025.

During 2024/25, we continued to be heavily impacted by the rise in utility costs and usage and the increase in demand for our support services specifically.

Budget projections were reviewed regularly and tight control remained on areas of expenditure to ensure a solid cash position, although housing voids and bad debt have impacted on the finances of the Association.

Following planning permission being granted for the development of Westover Road we continued to move forward the plans to commence the redevelopment and have had to rework plans to make this option financially viable, we will also know this coming year about the strategic need from the local authority.

Fund-raising

We continued to search for funding opportunities and availability of grants to help in various areas of our work, but it is becoming harder to attract funds due to increased competition and our need to accumulate reserves to develop our housing portfolio.

Other secured income

Achievements and performance

The surplus of income for the year was £148,000 for the group (£125,000 for Bournemouth YMCA alone). Like all charities that rely on funding and donations as an essential part of its income generation, YMCA Bournemouth has experienced reductions in contract values over recent years as well as some shortfalls in grant funding.

We have been very successful in achieving some additional grants in 2024/25, as follows:

Achievements and performance continued

Our events fundraising team also had a very positive year, especially running the Big Sleep Easy events for businesses and local schools which raised almost £100,000 from local supporters, for which we are very grateful. During 2024/25, the charity has received no complaints in respect of the charity’s fundraising activities.

Continuing rises in National Living Wage and Employers’ obligations of Employers’ National Insurance Contributions and Workplace Pensions have also impacted on expenditure for the year. The Association pays 7% employers’ pension contributions, which is generous compared to some employers. Benchmarking of salaries against local competitors continues to take place in what is becoming a very difficult recruiting environment.

With rising staff costs, expenditure for repairs, including two lifts having to be replaced, equipment, materials, utilities and servicing to all our sites continuing to increase; the pressure on charities to maintain operations and invest in development is challenging. Ongoing compliance with GDPR, safeguarding and health and safety remains a priority; data systems are regularly checked and staff are trained to ensure robust prevention measures against cyber security attacks. Reviewing efficiencies and best value for all our contracted supplies and purchasing have helped to minimise central costs for the Association and this, together with careful budgeting, maximising income generation and sound financial planning, have helped towards this year’s overall results. The Trustees would like to record their thanks and recognition to the management and staff, whose continued work effort, professionalism and commitment is commended.

In 2024/25, housing and support work continued to see high demand and a continued rise in the level of vulnerability and chaotic living and need of those coming into our support services. We supported 172 people over the year, and with a dedicated worker helping with resettlement, 29 positively moved on to their own accommodation. BCP Council continued to fund via Supporting People and Protect funds our full 73 hostel rooms. Our other 41 rooms of move-on accommodation were filled with other self-referrals. We had started to wind down the numbers living in our Delta Flats in preparation for the upcoming redevelopment but this had to be put on hold, and the flats refilled, which took some time to get adequate referrals. Bad debts have been an issue due to the chaotic nature of a number of our clients making it harder to get payments of the top up fee from them. This is something we are addressing going into 2025 with a dedicated worker supporting the clients to make payments.

With new regulations being put into place for Social Housing we have worked hard to ensure we are following all the changes and are providing the best service we can to our clients, meeting all building and consumer/quality standards to provide a safe and suitable home for them, as we help them move back into independence.

Staff turnover has been high over the year, but despite this client activities have continued to be provided with a variety of sporting activities, group outings, art and craft options and stays at our Sandyholme residential centre for the clients, supported by our housing and chaplaincy teams. These activities give clients opportunities to have meaningful occupation and to gain confidence and social skills whilst creating positive memories.

A new Family Hubs contract was agreed with BCP at the start of the 2024 financial year, which meant that our funding reduced by 50% and a number of staff had to be made redundant or chose to move on. We no longer are paid to manage the hubs but provide Early Help and Family programmes across the whole of BCP, working alongside their staff. Primarily our team have been working in Boscombe, Townsend and Queen’s Park with delivery and have worked with 265 children needing targeted family support. The Pokesdown and Southbourne Family Hub is now used as an outreach hub only, but we work with partners such as midwifery and health visitors and provide sessions specifically for families with younger children. We have also continued to support the work of the local food banks and gave out 321 food support bags to families.

The pre-school continues to thrive with good occupancy, we are grateful to our nursing staff and management for a very effective and needed service which was received by 83 children and 29,240 hours of quality early education provision was delivered.

Bournemouth Young Men's Christian Association Trustees report for the Year Ended 31 March 2025

Achievements and performance continued

The Child Contact Centre has continued to grow in demand with a much-increased number of referrals including from more Local Authorities (13 different ones now), who have recognised our highly qualified staff provision. We provided 1607 hours of family time to enable 79 families and their children to see their non-resident parents and/or grandparents. On top of this our facilities were used for a further 509 hours of hire for family time sessions.

The activities under Health and Fitness through the Junction Leisure Centre and Bayside have remained very popular with over 6,500+ members. On top of this there were over 62,000 attendances at fitness classes, 1,250 children taught to swim and 12,000 Fusion fitness sessions booked for 11-15 year olds. Parties remained popular (830+) as were adult functions (80+) using the bar area for events and celebrations. The holiday club provision also continues to be popular with 3,600 children attending holiday club sessions. Ongoing investment has taken place in both of our leisure buildings and new equipment purchased for the use of the members.

The effectiveness of our leisure model, built on the body, mind, spirit approach continues to flourish and our community wholeness focus creates a ‘whole lives for the whole of life in whole communities’ vision for the future of coordinated operations in the communities we serve.

The counselling service continues to see growing demand, providing free services to our staff and through our support services whilst offering affordable counselling to outside referrals as its reputation and delivery quality grows. In addition to our internal clients being supported we also supported clients from the local community and we offered 2,216 sessions in the year to 212 clients.

We also continue to partner with local charities and businesses to offer clinical supervision to their teams and the service offers an excellent support to many people in the local area and for them to support their front-line staff with clinical supervision. Our fundraising team are working very hard to support the costs of running this incredibly valuable service and had a very successful year with this.

The Chaplaincy team have also been meeting the spiritual needs of our staff, clients and members of the local community, providing 408 pastoral support meetings, 120 group meetings and 20 bible study groups.

Pokesdown Community Youth Centre continues to operate as a youth centre in the Southbourne area of Bournemouth. Pokesdown is one of the oldest youth clubs in the country and thousands of young people have benefited over 100+ years. Room hire and increased use of the facilities has been seen in the past year, with regular hire of office space and the upstairs area by Aspire.

The Townsend Youth Partnership also continues to impact on the lives of young people living on the Townsend estate providing positive activities and outcomes for them. Townsend Youth work provides a safe place for young people to go, providing positive opportunities for them to develop personal and social/interpersonal skills. We continue to give young people a safe place, once a week, to play and grow; providing support by trained youth workers who can advise, encourage and work with young people at a critical time in their lives to maximise their potential. There was also a Home Education group using the facility throughout the year and this supported 55 children and their families.

Townsend Children’s Project continues to run weekly sessions for younger children from 5-11 years old with an average of 30 attending across both sessions. Chatterboxes also runs two face to face sessions a week and two zoom sessions with approximately 25-30 young people per session and providing 513 hours of 5 direct support. Both projects have continued to thrive and grow throughout the year. Chatterboxes also providing training, support and advice to local organisations on supporting people with disabilities.

The Charity’s strategy continues to be one of intentional development in our primary operational areas, striving for excellence, Christian compassion, and wholeness of life in our staff and those we serve. We continue to look for opportunities to develop, particularly within our leisure, family hub and housing programmes; we are striving to create affordable, effective and sustainable services to our local communities.

Financial Review

Restricted reserves as at 31 March 2025 are £113k (2024: £106K). Designated reserves are £694k (2024: £718K). Revaluation reserves are £1,537K (2024: £1,537K). The Trustees consider that the financial performance reflects the activity undergone in the period and continue to be satisfied that future benefits will be derived from them.

There was ongoing investment in CAPEX throughout the financial year to ensure facilities have been kept up to a good standard, large items such as air conditioning at Bayside, new fitness equipment at the Junction, refurbishment of rooms within our housing areas and upgrading of Sandyholme. Reserves have been strengthened to a total £7,195K (£7,046K in 2024). Reserves are held for the furtherance of the development of the activities of YMCA Bournemouth and its premises, and to allow continued capital investment in the buildings and infrastructure.

Reserves policy

It is worthy to note that reserves are held for the furtherance of the development of the activities of YMCA Bournemouth and its premises, and to allow continued capital investment in the buildings and infrastructure. Our reserves policy is to keep 3 months of salary at all times and we need at least £650,000 to progress to the next stage of the re-development of Westover Road. This means to progress to the start of development stage of Westover Road and keep to our reserves policy, we will need £1.4 million of cash reserves. We then intend to use more reserves to fill the gap between the expenditure on redevelopment and that raised.

It is also worth noting, with regard our current increased reserves; YMCA Bournemouth is a registered social landlord and follows the Housing SORP and not the Charities SORP in respect of financial statement disclosures. A social landlord cannot designate funds for specific purpose in the primary financial statements, however, the unrestricted cash within the organisation has been increased over the past few years in order to have sufficient reserves to comply with changes in legislation in respect of Decent Homes Standards and fire regulations. The Trustees consider the expenditure requirement to be significant over the next two years and have therefore increased reserves for this purpose.

Value For Money Metrics

The Board of Trustees is committed to achieving value for money (VFM) in YMCA Bournemouth’s service planning and delivery in accordance with its five-year strategy and The Regulator of Social Housing’s (RSH) value for money standard.

YMCA Bournemouth aims to:

VFM is to achieve the right balance between economy, efficiency and effectiveness. Essentially YMCA Bournemouth is required to assess the impacts of all its costs to best meet its stakeholders’ needs. This means spending efficiently to ensure there is optimum balance between relatively low costs, high productivity and successful outcomes.

In 2024/25, we have ensured VFM in a number of ways

Value For Money Metrics Continued

Alongside compliance with the Value for Money Standard and Code of Practice, we are expected to report on certain VFM Metrics to enable effective comparison across the sector. The metrics are included below.

Future Plans

The group’s results in 2024/25, although not as high as budgeted has still been positive and positioned YMCA Bournemouth for expenditure in investment in our leisure facilities and housing redevelopment. These are the primary focus into the next year, but we will continue to review other opportunities to assess affordability, ethos and how they fit specifically into our strategic plan and current operational commitments.

The risk of economic uncertainty, a challenging recruitment environment, rising costs and political uncertainty continue to create a challenging operating environment. This means YMCA must remain agile and adaptive to the future development, taking opportunities where possible but remaining robust in its planning and risk management.

Bournemouth Young Men's Christian Association Independent Auditor's Report for the Year Ended 31 March 2025

Independent Auditor's Report to the Members of Bournemouth Young Men's Christian Association

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Bournemouth Young Men's Christian Association (the parent company and its trading subsidiaries, together ‘the group’)) for the period ended 31 March 2025 which comprise the Group and Association Statement of Comprehensive Income, Group and Association Balance Sheet, Group and Association Statement of Changes and Reserves, Group Cash Flow statement 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 association 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

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the ISAs (UK) require us to report to you where:

· the board’s use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is not appropriate; or

· the board has not disclosed in the financial statements any identified material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the group’s ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting for a period of at least twelve months from the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Page 14

Bournemouth Young Men's Christian Association Independent Auditor's Report for the Year Ended 31 March 2025

Other information

The board is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Board Report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. 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.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, 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 there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. 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 board report (incorporating the strategic report) for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and

· the board report (incorporating the strategic 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 its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the board report (incorporating the strategic 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 or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or

In addition, we have nothing to report in respect of the following matter where the Housing and Regeneration Act 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

· a satisfactory system of control over transactions has not been maintained.

Responsibilities of the board

As explained more fully in the board’s responsibilities statement set out on page 13, the board members (who are also the directors of the association 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 board 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 board is responsible for assessing the association’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 board either intends to liquidate the association or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.

Page 15

Bournemouth Young Men's Christian Association Independent Auditor's Report for the Year Ended 31 March 2025

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 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.

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.

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 are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

Audit procedures performed by the engagement team included:

1) Identifying and assessing the design effectiveness of controls management has in place to prevent and detect fraud;

2) Understanding how those charged with governance considered and addressed the potential for override of controls or other inappropriate influence over the financial reporting process;

3) Challenging assumptions and judgments made by management in its significant accounting estimates;

4) Identifying and testing journal entries, in particular any journal entries posted with unusual account combinations; and

5) Assessing the extent of compliance with the relevant law and regulations.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

1 Summary of significant accounting policies

Legal form

Parent entity

Bournemouth Young Men's Christian Association is a private registered provider of social housing in the United Kingdom and a registered company limited by guarantee. The address of the registered office is given in the registered provider information of these financial statements.

Subsidiary entities

Townsend Youth Partnership is a registered charity, registration number 1093213, and a private company (number 04236016) limited by guarantee, registered in the United Kingdom. The registered office of the charity is Delta House, 56 Westover Road, Bournemouth, Dorset, BH1 2BS. The nature of the charity's operations and principal activities are described in the Trustees annual report

Pokesdown Community Youth Centre is a registered charity, registration number 301918, registered in the United Kingdom. The registered address of the charity is Delta House, 56 Westover Road, Bournemouth, Dorset, BH1 2BS. The nature of the charity's operations and principal activities are described in the Trustees annual report.

(a) General information and basis of preparation

The nature of the registered provider's operations and principal activities are, providing residential accommodation in the form of flats and hostel rooms to those in conditions of need, hardship or distress due to their social, physical or economic circumstances. The Association is committed to helping people, particularly young people, at times of need regardless of their gender, race, ability or faith. In order to fulfil these objectives the Association operates a comprehensive range of programmes of a sporting, social and cultural nature. This involves the management and operation of three youth centres, a children's centre, child contact centre and pre school, a retreat centre and the management of a leisure centre.

The registered provider constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with applicable accounting standards including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard Applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Statement of Recommended Practice for Social Housing Providers 2018, and with the Accounting Direction for private registered providers of social housing in England 2019. The financial statements are also prepared under the requirements of the Housing and Regeneration Act 2008 and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been 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 registered provider, and rounded to the nearest £000.

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) Group accounts

The registered provider is required by the Companies Act 2006 to prepare group accounts. The consolidated accounts comprise the financial statements of Bournemouth YMCA, and of its subsidiaries Pokesdown Youth Club (unincorporated charity no 301918) and the Townsend Youth Partnership (registered company no 04236016, charity number 1093213).

These charities are consolidated into this set of accounts under the basis that Bournemouth Young Men's Christian Association is the sole trustee of the charities.

(c) Stocks

Stock is stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost includes all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing stock to its present location and condition. Cost is calculated using the first-in, first-out formula.

Page 22

Bournemouth Young Men's Christian Association Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2025

(d) Investments

Investments are recognised initially at fair value which is normally the transaction price excluding transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at fair value through the statement of comprehensive income if the shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise be measured reliably. Other investments are measured at cost less impairment.

(e) Intangible assets - goodwill

Goodwill arising on business combinations is capitalised, classified as an asset on the balance sheet and amortised on a straight line basis over its useful life. The period chosen for writing off goodwill is 10 years. The reason for choosing this period is that it is the directors' assessment of the period to be benefited.

(f) Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets (excluding freehold properties) are stated at cost (or deemed cost) less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as intended such as the cost of acquiring land and buildings, developments costs, interest charges on loans during the development period and expenditure on improvements. Expenditure on improvements will only be capitalised when it results in incremental future benefits such as increasing rental income, reducing maintenance costs or resulting in a significant extension of the useful economic life of the property.

Freehold properties are recognised on a revaluation basis and recognised at fair value at the reporting date. These are depreciated over the useful life of the property between revaluation. Following revaluation at the end of 2024, this has been considered to be 50 years.

Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets (including those held at revaluation), 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. Where revalued assets are depreciated a transfer is made between the revaluation reserve and the income and expenditure account.

Following the most recent review of the depreciation policies by the Trustees, it was decided that all new capital expenditure from the 1st January 2019 would be depreciated on different rates. These new rates are detailed below, older assets will continue to be depreciated at the previous rates. Additions are depreciated for an entire year during the year of purchase.

Housing properties under construction are not depreciated until they are in use. The useful economic lives of all tangible fixed assets are reviewed annually.

The entity operates a capitalisation policy of a minimum of £1,000.

Page 23

Bournemouth Young Men's Christian Association Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2025

(g) Housing properties

Housing properties are revalued to their market value at the reporting date. Bournemouth Young Men's Christian Association accounts for its expenditure on housing using component accounting. Under component accounting, the housing property is divided into those major components which are considered to have substantially different useful economic lives. These components are then depreciated over their individual useful economic lives on a straight line basis. The particular components identified by Bournemouth Young Men's Christian Association and their respective useful economic lives are as follows:

follows:
Land n/a Bathrooms 25 years
Core building 100 years Boiler/heating 15 years
Roof 60 years Electrics 20 years
Windows 25 years Lift 25 years
Kitchens 25 years

(h) Impairment

All fixed assets are considered for impairment annually and detailed reviews of assets for impairment are carried out if there is an indication that impairment has occurred or if they are not being depreciated.

(i) Social housing grant (SHG)

SHG is recognised when receivable.

Housing association grants are included under SHG headings. The performance model has been adopted for the recognition of Social Housing Grants.

(j) Government and other grants

Grants towards capital expenditure (other than housing property) are included within accruals and deferred income, and then released to the income and expenditure account over the expected useful life of the related assets. Grants towards revenue expenditure are released to the income and expenditure account as the related expenditure is incurred.

(k) Debtors and creditors receivable / payable within one year

Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income in other administrative expenses.

Rights of social landlords to have improvement works carried out to properties by a third party (such as a local authority) are recognised as prepayments where payment has occurred in advance of the works being carried out and receipts in advance from the same third party recognised as liabilities.

Assets and liabilities or income and expenditure are not offset.

(l) Loans and borrowings

Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the transaction price including transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less impairment. If an arrangement constitutes a financing transaction it is measured at present value.

(m) Leases

Rentals payable and receivable under operating leases are charged to the statement of comprehensive income on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

Page 24

Bournemouth Young Men's Christian Association Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2025

(n) Tax

The activities of the registered provider are partially exempt from VAT.

The Association is registered for VAT and is able to recover VAT on a proportion of its purchases. VAT incurred on purchases which is not recoverable is included along with the expense to which it relates, or the item acquired, in the income and expenditure account or balance sheet respectively.

(o) Turnover and other income

Turnover represents income from the various activities undertaken by the group. Rental income from the housing properties, along with fees are recognised in the period in which services are provided. Revenue grants from the local authority and the HCA are recognised in the period in which the related expenditure is incurred. All other trading income is recorded when the service has been provided.

Donations and legacies are accounted for when the group has been notified of the amount receivable. Supporting people income is recognised over the period in which services are provided when receivable and included in turnover under Supporting People contract income.

(p) Employee benefits

When employees have rendered service to the registered provider, short-term employee benefits to which the employees are entitled are recognised at the undiscounted amount expected to be paid in exchange for that service.

The registered provider operates a defined contribution plan for the benefit of its employees. Contributions are expensed as they become payable.

(q) Reserves

Restricted reserves are those reserves which are only expendable in accordance with the wishes of the funder or regulatory body. Restricted reserves include funds raised in response to a specific appeal. Revenue and expenditure cannot be directly set against restricted reserves but is taken through the statement of comprehensive income and then a transfer to / from restricted reserves is made as appropriate.

Unrestricted general reserve —these funds can be used in accordance with the objectives of the Association at the discretion of the board.

Designated reserves are part of unrestricted reserves which have been earmarked by the Board for a particular purpose. Such designations may be reversed by future Board decisions.

(r) Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

There are no areas of significant judgement.

The key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial year include:

The valuation of properties owned by the group. Housing property and Freehold Property are now held at market value at the reporting date. Management assess the valuation annually and consider whether formal valuation is required. A formal third party valuation is obtained by the trustees on a regular basis.
