The Millennium Third Age Centre
Trustees' Report
The trustees, who are directors for the purposes of company law, present the annual report together with the financial statements of the charitable company for the year ended 31 December 2020.
Objectives and activities
Achievements and performance
The charity’s principal asset, source of income and base of charitable operations was the community centre located at 11 Cranberry Terrace in Southampton.
Whilst the first quarter of the year saw continued positive development, the activities of the charity thereafter were significantly and negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.
The necessary closure of the community centre, and the consequent loss of rental income, significantly impeded the charity’s ability to maintain operations and deliver social value in the year.
Having regard to the sustained operating restrictions and uncertainties arising from the COVID-19 pandemic, the trustees determined in the year that it was not economically viable to maintain the community centre and instructed agents to sell. The property was sold on 3 September 2021.
Financial review
The lockdown requirements and subsequent decision to dispose of the community centre significantly reduced ad hoc rental income in the year and resulted in losses from tenants. The charity was however able to maintain operations and generate a small operating surplus through receipt of relief grants and prompt action to reduce operating costs.
As the sales proceeds from the community centre were materially lower than the net book value an impairment charge of £505,455 was included in the Statement of Financial Activities to reduce the value of the property to its fair value less costs to sell of £594,731.
Plans for future periods
Aims and key objectives for future periods
Following the completion of the sale on 3 September 2021 the charity has at the date of signing of these accounts cash funds exceeding £600,000 and minimal committed expenditure.
The trustees are determining how to best apply these funds in accordance with the charity’s objects. Consideration is being given to investing most of these funds into income generating ethical and environmentally responsible investments to facilitate the periodic award of grants.
Structure, governance and management
Nature of governing document
The charity is controlled by it's governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.

Trustees' Report
Major risks and management of those risks
Risk Management
The Trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.
Objectives & aims
The charity owns and managed a community centre in one of the 10% most deprived wards in the country. It also provides support for several VCSE (Voluntary, Community and Social Enterprise) organisations and groups in Southampton and the wider area. It provides spaces and rooms, and other support to help maintain and grow their social value. Using value for money techniques, it makes use of volunteers (whilst developing their skills, knowledge and employability etc) and collaborations with partners across all sectors to deliver its aims and objectives.
Following the sale of community centre on 3 September 2021, the trustees are determining how to best apply the proceeds in accordance with the charity’s objects. Consideration is being given to investing most of the proceeds into income generating ethical and environmentally responsible investments to facilitate the periodic award of grants.
The annual report was approved by the trustees of the charity on 29 September 2021 and signed on its behalf by:

Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of The Millennium Third Age Centre
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2020 which are set out on pages 5 to 12.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
As the charity’s trustees of The Millennium Third Age Centre (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 Millennium Third Age Centre 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
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:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of The Millennium Third Age Centre as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
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
-
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.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2020
1 Charity status
The charity is limited by share capital, incorporated in England.
The address of its registered office is: 21 Highfield Crescent Portswood Southampton Hampshire SO17 1SG
These financial statements were authorised for issue by the trustees on 29 September 2021.
2 Accounting policies
Statement of compliance
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2015) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). They also comply with the Companies Act 2006 and Charities Act 2011.
Basis of preparation
The Millennium Third Age Centre meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes.
Going concern
The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern nor any significant areas of uncertainty that affect the carrying value of assets held by the charity.
Income and endowments
Expenditure
All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs.
Raising funds
These are costs incurred in attracting voluntary income, the management of investments and those incurred in trading activities that raise funds.
Page 7
The Millennium Third Age Centre
Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2020
Support costs
Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, for example, allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.
Governance costs
These include the costs attributable to the charity’s compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements, including audit, strategic management and trustees’s meetings and reimbursed expenses.
Taxation
The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.
Tangible fixed assets
Individual fixed assets costing £100.00 or more are initially recorded at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.
Land and buildings are not depreciated but subject to annual impairment testing.
Depreciation and amortisation
Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows:
Asset class Depreciation method and rate Office Equipment 15% reducing balance
Fund structure
Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees's discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objectives of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
The Financial Statements for the year ended 31 December 2019 presented certain restricted funds. Post filing the charity has determined that all funds were unrestricted. The comparative numbers for the year ended 31 December 2019 presented within these Financial Statements have therefore been restated as wholly unrestricted funds.
