DORSETSCRAPSTORE Trustees Annual Report
OBJECTIVESAND ACTIVITIES
The charity seeks to distribute donated materials to provide or assist in the provision of facilities for recreation, education and other leisure time activities for children and adults in Dorset including Bournemouth and Poole so that their education and social welfare is advanced. The charity further seeks to advance education particularly in connection with the reuse of scrap and waste materials so as to protect the environment.
ACHIEVEMENTSAND PERFORMANCE
FINANCIALREVIEW
A Key Performance Indicator for Dorset Scrapstore is the size of our membership base. Members are the beneficiaries of our charity; getting access to cheap recycled material for arts, crafting and creative projects that would otherwise have gone to landfill, and access to education and skills workshops and events.
Membership
The membership of Dorset Scrapstore has remained stable at around 1500. However, the number of people benefitting from Dorset Scrapstore is much greater. We estimate that 4,000 people benefit from our service each year.
Some extracts from Google reviews:
Utterly incredible and a gorgeous resource we are so lucky to have
They have a lot of things there, some things are to go in baskets and others you must pay little amounts in comparison to retail prices. However, you can only buy goods from them if you pay a yearly subscription fee of £5, which I didn’t mind because the items I was going to buy would have cost me 5 times more from the retail shop.
The people working there are friendly and chatty and you can spend a good two hours looking around. Definitely a place to go and visit if you want to buy arts and crafts, bulk buy on carpets, wrapping paper and cellophane, boxes and electrical cable.
See you soon ladies and thank you for your assistance.
The go to place if you are a crafter or have kids that like to make stuff, wonderful to see things going to good use rather than be dumped in landfill. Prices are fantastic and staff so helpful, grateful to the person who told me about this place - check the opening hours before heading off but well worth a visit.
Oh wow, what a fantastic idea! A brilliant concept. Loads of stuff for every project. Unbelievable prices and membership. Fab.

Volunteers
Dorset Scrapstore has a firm base of long standing volunteers. We pride ourselves in having volunteers from a very diverse section of society with varied backgrounds, skills and experience.
For many years we have offered work experience placements to students with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities from Poole and Bournemouth College. They visit once per week for two hours throughout term time with a tutor. Throughout the year, we have provided over 100 work experience hours. The students enjoy coming to the store, we love having them here and they do some excellent work for us helping to sort things.
We have a reliable team of four volunteers who provide fortnightly workshops for home educated children.
At the start of the year we were half way through a trial year of having a volunteer co-ordinator, funded by a National Lottery Awards for All Grant. The funding ended in August 2024 and we have not continued the role, the volunteers have continued to be co-ordinated by staff in the store.
Throughout the year we have continually had 11-12 individual volunteers in the store each month, contributing over 2000 shop volunteer hours throughout the year.
Workshops
Our volunteer run workshops for home educated children go from strength to strength. We run fortnightly sessions with two groups each with 12 children. The sessions are always fully booked and we have a waiting list.
Giving children and young people the opportunity to gain Arts Awards qualifications has been very popular within the home educated community. It gives them the opportunity to work towards a nationally recognised qualification.
Feedback received from the home education sessions:
It’s a brilliant course that my children have thoroughly enjoyed and learnt a great deal.
Materials are all ideal, covers not only the art elements of the course but teaches thinking differently about everyday items, and with a little imagination the ability to re-use and recycle in such an amazing way.
Content is only limited by the time available! Never a dull moment and so much is covered. If I had to offer a suggestion for improvement to content then perhaps more classes so more children, and adults, could attend.
Arts Awards Qualifications
In August 2022, Dorset Scrapstore became an Arts Award Centre. At that time we had one volunteer who set up the centre and could help children with the two basic levels of the award Discover and Explore. By the end of this financial year, we had two assessors at the basic level, one of which could also deliver and assess the Bronze and Silver level, 16 children had completed the Discover, 9 had completed Explore and 8 were working towards the Bronze level.
In future we would like to expand our provision of the Arts Awards to include children not attending our workshops either home educated or in school. However, this requires grant funding as we currently rely solely on volunteers to provide these services.
Dorset Scrapstore Van
Thanks to the Valentine Trust for donating £5000 and our community for raising over £500 we were able to buy a newer and more reliable van in March 2025.

PLANSFORFUTUREPERIODS
Looking towards the 2025-26 financial year, we have a few things planned. We know that attending external events helps increase the profile and bring people into Dorset Scrapstore. We are planning to apply for a grant for an event coordinator as this would take the pressure off our relatively small team of volunteers who organise and attend our external events. As mentioned above, we will be looking to secure funding to extend the provision of our children’s workshops and Arts Awards.

DORSETSCRAPSTORE Notes to the Accounts
Expenditure
Recognition of Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis. Expenditure includes any VAT expenditure which cannot be fully recovered, and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates. Expenditure on These comprise the costs associated with attracting voluntary income, fundraising raising funds trading costs and investment management costs. Expenditure on These comprise the costs incurred by the Charity in the delivery of its activities charitable activities and services in the furtherance of its objects, including the making of grants and governance costs. Grants payable All grant expenditure is accounted for on an actual paid basis plus an accrual for grants that have been approved by the trustees at the end of the year but not yet paid. Governance costs These include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the Charity, including any audit/independent examination fees, costs linked to the strategic management of the Charity, together with a share of other administration costs. Other expenditure These are support costs not allocated to a particular activity.
Taxation
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.
Freehold investment property
Investment properties are measured initially at cost and subsequently at fair value at each balance sheet date and are not depreciated. All gains or losses are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities as they arise.
Stocks
Stock is included at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Donated items of stock are recognised at fair value which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay for the items on the open market.
Trade and other debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and bank overdrafts. In the statement of financial position, bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings or current liabilities. In the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents are shown net of bank overdrafts that are repayable on demand and form an integral part of the company's cash management.
Trade and other creditors
Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
Page 11
DORSETSCRAPSTORE Notes to the Accounts
Research and development
Expenditure on research and development is written off in the year in which it is incurred.
Foreign currencies
Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency of the charity are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing at the end of the reporting period.
Transactions in currencies other than the functional currency of the charity are recorded at the rate of exchange on the date that the transaction occurred.
All exchange differences are are taken into account in arriving at net income/expenditure.
Leased assets
Where the charity enters into a lease which entails taking substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of an asset, the lease is treated as a finance lease.
Leases which do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to charity are classified as operating leases.
Assets held under finance leases are initially recognised as assets of the charity at their fair value at the inception of the lease or, if lower, at the present value of the minimum lease payments. The corresponding liability to the lessor is included in the balance sheet date as a finance lease obligation. Lease payments are apportioned between finance expenses and reduction of the lease obligation so as to achieve a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Finance expenses are recognised immediately, unless they are directly attributable to qualifying assets, in which case they are capitalised in accordance with the charity's policy on borrowing costs.
Assets held under finance leases are depreciated in the same way as owned assets.
Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term. In the event that lease incentives are received to enter into operating leases, such incentives are recognised as a liability. The aggregate benefit of incentives is recognised as a reduction of rental expense on a straight-line basis.
Pension costs
The charity operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the company has no further payments obligations. The contributions are recognised as expenses when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals in the balance sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the company in independently administered funds.
Receipt of donated goods, facilities and services
All donated goods, facilities and services received are recognised within incoming resources and expenditure at an estimate of the value to the charity.
- 2 Company status
The company is a private company limited by guarantee and consequently does not have share capital.
