## **Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31st March 2024**
The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31st March 2024. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).
## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES**
## **Objectives and aims**
The principle activities of the company in the year under review were:
- to promote any charitable purposes for the benefit of the community in the Droitwich area and, in particular, the advancement of education, the protection of health and the relief of poverty, distress and sickness: and
- to promote and organise co-operation in achievement of the above purposes and to that end to bring together in council representatives of statutory bodies and voluntary organisations engaged in the furtherance of the above purposes within the Droitwich area.
## **Public benefit**
The Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in Section 17(5) of the 2011 Charities Act to have due regard to guidance on public benefit published by the Charity Commission when reviewing the charity's objectives and in planning future activities.
## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE**
The Trustees have prioritised financial stability this Financial Year to ensure the charity's sustainability. This will enable us to continue providing outstanding services to the community whilst securing the future of the charity. The development programme for staff continued to help focus on the charity's Aims and Objectives and to set priorities.
|**Our Values**|Community, Connection, Collaboration.|
|---|---|
|**Our Vision**|A connected community where every person feels valued,supported and safe.|

|**Our Objectives**|**1)**Increase our profile in Droitwich Spa.|
||**2)**Continue to develop our services to reflect the needs of our community.|
||**3)**Become financially self-sufficient.|
## **Buildings**
Rental income continued to be generated from long term office lettings. There was a short period of crossover between exit and new tenant which had an impact. New hirers for lettings of the hall and small meeting room have been lower this year, which we have attributed to groups now accessing free spaces.
Rotary House bookings have remained steady. Most of the internal improvements to provide a modern meeting venue have now been completed.
Essential maintenance has continued at both venues with the help of a volunteer handyman and gardener.
## Community Transport
Community transport has been in demand throughout the year with vehicles and volunteer drivers being booked for a variety of purposes, including hospital and medical appointments, visits to clubs and social events.
The minibus trips have proved to be extremely popular and visit a range of places including shops, restaurants and other tourist venues. These trips provide a much-needed service to alleviate social isolation and reduce loneliness. We are grateful for donations this year from Droitwich Lions Club and John Lewis Partnership enabling us to subsidise the cost of some trips.
Worcestershire County Council continued to fund the bus pass subsidy grant at pre-pandemic level for this year and advised of a sliding scale of payments for next year.
With the help of our fantastic team of volunteer drivers 4776 passenger journeys were completed through the community transport scheme and minibus trips during this financial year.

## **Moving Forward Project**
The Moving Forward project has continued this year with grant funding from:
- National Lottery Community Fund (Moving Forward Phase 1)
- UK Shared Prosperity Fund (through Wychavon District Council)
- National Lottery Community Fund (Moving Forward Next Steps)
During this year the staff team and volunteers have supported Droitwich West residents by running:
- Community Fridge and setting up a new café.
- Stay & Play toddler group
- Christmas Lunch
- Cookery Classes
- Family Events - discos, fun day, pantomime etc.
- Westlands Youth Group
- Job Fairs
## **Community Builder**
The year has been a busy one with many new initiatives in both Droitwich Spa and the surrounding villages including:
- Ruby Monday's letter writing group expanding to a second group.
- Partnering with Platform Housing Group to hold outreach events.
- Supporting residents to set up new groups in their village halls.
- Continued support for the bereavement groups in association with St Vincent de Paul Society.
- Liaising with local organisations, groups and individuals to strengthen community connections, with the aim of reducing isolation and improving health and wellbeing.
## **Other Community Initiatives**
Our networking meetings have continued throughout the year and have been very well attended. These enable groups and organisations to exchange ideas, share information and generally support each other. It is an opportunity for the Statutory sector to find out information and talk to grassroots organisations that are supporting residents.
We continued to manage grants through the Government's Household Support Fund on behalf of Wychavon District Council. Grant referrals have been received from local residents which included the purchase of white goods, food, beds, winter bedding, shower adaptions, boiler repairs and school uniform vouchers.
We received positive feedback and high demand for our Cost-of-Living booklets, which details various initiatives to support residents through the Cost-of-Living Crisis. Droitwich United Charities offered to fund a second reprint and update later in the year.
Coffee Mates is a social group held monthly enabling people to meet in a relaxed atmosphere, make new friends and have fun over refreshments and cake. This group is very popular, and numbers have increased to around 30 each month.
We were granted funding from the National Grid again which meant we could offer residents a Winter Warmer bag. This included a fleece blanket, a hot water bottle, a thermos mug, hat, scarf, gloves etc.
## **FINANCIAL REVIEW**

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW**
## **Reserves policy**
The trustees' policy is to ensure that there are sufficient reserves to finance expenditure for the next 6 months. The unrestricted general fund balance (excluding fixed assets) is £160,781 and this represents 7 months of charity expenditure so the policy is currently being achieved. There is also a designated operational reserve of £104,330 in place to cover any deficit if required.
The total unrestricted general fund balance (including fixed assets) at 31st March 2024 was £165,444 (2023: £135,644), of which £160,781 was free current reserves (2023: £128,667) . This is held for the future funding of the charity.
The unrestricted Rotary House reserve, excluding fixed assets, was £32,722 at 31 March 2024 (2023: £34,193). This fund has been presented separately from general unrestricted funds in order to identify easily the surplus/deficit and net assets attributable to this activity.
The charity also has a designated operational reserve fund with free reserves of £104,330 (2023: £110,000) which will be used to cover the charity's future overheads should there be a decrease in funding. There is also a designated winding up fund with balance of £52,787 (2023: £52,787) and this will be used to cover the cost of redundancies should the charity cease operating.
The restricted fund balance as at 31st March 2024 was £279,243 (2023: £310,312) and of this balance £204,989 (2023: £211,054) relates to the value of the leasehold property.
The current reserves of the charity as at 31 March 2024 were £242,193 (2023: £422,052) and with the inclusion of tangible fixed assets of £313,673 (please refer to note 14) (2023: £327,565) this brings total reserves of the charity to £737,866 (2023: £749,617).
## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT**
## **Governing document**
The charity is controlled by its governing document, the Memorandum & Articles of Association adopted on 21st December 1999, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.
In accordance with Section 60(1)(a) of the Companies Act 2006, the company is exempt from the requirements of that Act to include 'Limited' as part of its name. The charity is registered with the Charity Commissioners. The company registration number is 03897969 and the charity registration number is 1080042.
As the charitable company is limited by guarantee, no trustee has any interest in the share capital of the company.
## **Recruitment and appointment of new trustees**
Trustees are appointed at the Annual General Meeting to ensure that the Board represents a cross section of the community and individuals with relevant professional backgrounds.
Trustees are recruited from wider Droitwich Spa based on their skills and experience.
New Board members are provided with copies of the most recent annual report and accounts, a role description of the responsibilities of a trustee, a copy of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, copies of recent minutes of meetings and a copy of the Charity Commission publication, "Responsibilities of Charity Trustees". New trustees also have an induction session with the Chief Officer.
New trustees are asked to consider any potential conflict of interest and these are recorded as appropriate.
The trustees are responsible for financial controls and accounts; for developing and overseeing a reserves policy; for ensuring that all procedures and policies adhere to their legal requirements as employers; for reviewing risk management of the organisation; to ensure all aspects of charity and company law are fully and properly adhered to and to generally protect the charity's property. The trustees have complied with their duty in Section 17(5) of the 2011 Charities Act to have due regard to guidance published by the Charity Commission on public benefit.
The directors are responsible for agreeing the annual report and accounts, as well as reviewing the activity during the year against the annual year plan. The Chief Officer has delegated authority, under terms approved by the Board, for all day to day activity including financial, employment and staff supervision, but has to present a report at each meeting of the Board.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Droitwich Spa and Rural Council for Voluntary Service**
## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Droitwich Spa and Rural Council for Voluntary Service ('the Company')**
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31st March 2024.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.
## **Independent examiner's statement**
Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:
1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
We refer you to the accounting policy for grant recognition and critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty notes to the accounts, where the charity details departure form Charities SORP in order to achieve a true and fair view. Our opinion is unmodified in regard to this.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31st March 2024**
## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES**
## **BASIS OF PREPARING THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS**
The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006, except in regard to the recognition of grant income where the charity departs from Charities SORP in order to achieve a true and fair view. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investments which are included at market value, as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.
The accounts are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
## **COMPANY STATUS**
The charity is a company limited by guarantee. The members of the company are the trustees named in the Report of the Trustees. In the event of the company being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the charity.
## **INCOME**
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Income from grants and donations (including government grant income) is recognised in the period in which the charity is entitled to receipt and the amount can be measured with reasonable certainty. Income from grants is only deferred when the charity has to fulfil conditions not yet met before becoming entitled to it or where the donor has specified that the income is to be expended in a future period.
Multi-year grant awards considered to in substance, if not in legal form, restrict when the charity is able to spend the grant funds are recognised only to the extent that they are deemed to relate to the current financial year. This is a departure from Charities SORP that requires that grants that are not subject to time constraints specifically mentioned in the grant documentation to be recognised in full immediately upon notification from the grant provider of the award.
Rental and management fee income is recognised in line with the periods to which such income relates, up to the extent that it is probable that such income is recoverable.
## **EXPENDITURE**
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.
## **RAISING FUNDS**
Raising funds includes all expenditure incurred by the charity to raise funds for its charitable purposes and includes costs of all fundraising activities, events and non-charitable trading.
## **CHARITABLE ACTIVITIES**
Charitable activities costs include all costs of fulfilling the objectives of the charity.
## **TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS**
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Freehold property - not provided Leasehold property - 2% on cost Plant and machinery - 25% on cost Motor vehicles - 20% on cost Assets costing less than £500 are not capitalised.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements - continued for the Year Ended 31st March 2024**
## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued**
## **TAXATION**
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.
## **FUND ACCOUNTING**
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
## **PENSION COSTS**
The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.
## **FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS**
The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments' and Section 12 'Other Financial Instruments Issues' of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised when the charity becomes party to contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets are offset, with the net amounts presented in the accounts where there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
## **Basic Financial Assets**
Basic financial assets, which include trade and other receivables and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest.
## **Basic Financial Liabilities**
Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other payables, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of future receipts, discounted at a market rate of interest. Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of the operations from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade payables are recognised initially at transaction cost.
## **2. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY**
Accounting estimates and judgement are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
## **Critical accounting judgements**
The charity is in receipt of a multi-year National Lottery grant award to fund an ongoing service provided by the charity to the beneficiaries of the charity. Whilst not stated in the grant agreement, there is considered to be an implied understanding that this is to be treated as multiple annual grants and not recognised as a single grant covering a 3 year project and the charity is considered in substance, if not in legal form, to be able to offset current year expenditure against grant income receivable under this grant agreement receivable in future years. This interpretation has been confirmed with the National Lottery. The National Lottery have issued the restricted fund grant to finance an ongoing project to provide a service and have set project aims to be delivered over the course of the project. The National Lottery monitor the charity's progress with the project on an ongoing basis and if they consider that the charity has failed to make good progress with the project or is unlikely to complete the project or achieve the impacts agreed, then the National Lottery has the power to suspend or cease making future payments under the grant award due for payment in future years. The National Lottery is paying the charity the grant award in equal instalments over the life of the project and have confirmed in writing their intention for the grant to be recognised on an annual basis. At the year end the National Lottery is due to pay the charity £268,315 (2023 - £nil) over the next 2 (2023 - 0) years under the current grant award.

## **2. CRITICAL ACCOUNTING JUDGEMENTS AND KEY SOURCES OF ESTIMATION UNCERTAINTY - continued**
A critical accounting judgement is in setting the depreciation rates for tangible fixed assets. Details for these rates can be found in the accounting policies in note 1. The carrying value of tangible fixed assets can be found in note 14.
Judgement is also used in determining the allocation of salary costs between the different activities and projects. Time sheets will be reviewed each month and an apportionment will be established across the activities and individual unrestricted and restricted funds depending on the hours spent on each.

## **13. PRIOR YEAR ADJUSTMENT**
The comparative figures have been restated as follows:
- Grant income of £1,534 has been excluded. This had previously been included as grant income for the miscellaneous project fund, however it was identified that this was funding for the Westlands Groups and is redistributed by Droitwich CVS.
- Grant income of £1,000 has been reclassified from restricted funds to unrestricted funds.
The impact of these adjustments is as follows:
- Total incoming resources for 2023 has fallen from £270,143 to £268,608
- Total funds brought forward at 1 April 2023 has fallen from £751,152 to £749,617
