VANBRUGH COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31st March 2023

The VCA trustees, who are the 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 2022. 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 102.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

The objectives of Vanbrugh Community Association are: to promote the benefit of the inhabitants of the London Borough of Greenwich and especially the Blackheath, Westcombe and adjoining wards by furthering their education, social welfare and leisure opportunities as a means of improving their quality of life, and specifically by managing a community venue to provide a base for activities which will help achieve those objectives.

Main activities for public benefit

There are currently 125 groups who use Mycenae House on a regular basis, of which 32 are Affiliated to the VCA and 31 are Private Member groups. The activities of the groups fit largely within the categories of Healthy & Wellbeing, Arts and Culture and Children and Education. The range of activities provided includes physical exercise, mental health, visual arts, music, singing, nature and conservation, dance, senior citizen activities, local history, science appreciation, judo, martial arts, weight control, acting and theatre skills, languages, and healing. The house also provides facilities for a children's pre-school nursery and creative education, hosts meetings, training sessions and conferences for professional organisations, provides classroom facilities for international schools and space for the RBG & NHS Social Services family contact sessions, counselling, and mental health support services, as well as being a Polling Station in National and Local Elections.

There are two community organisations which have offices in the house and there are two artists in residence. In addition, the VCA organises its own programme of cultural events which include live music, theatre and visual arts, fairs, and talks.

Our well-established Reach Out Project works to tackle and reduce social isolation, inequality, and supports diversity in our local community through offering social activities, support sessions and access to services.

The VCA is also a partner in the Friends of Mycenae Gardens, The Eyes EU Intereg project, the annual Parksfest event in Mycenae Gardens and the Westcombe Society's various fundraising events, including the MacMillan Coffee Morning. Mycenae House has a licensed café bar for the use of user groups and visitors, with free Wi-Fi.

How our activities deliver Social value

When accepting bookings and planning activities at the Centre, we strive to comply with the VCA's mission, it's social value commitments and requirements in accordance the Service Level Agreement with the Royal Borough of Greenwich, Section 4 of the Charities Act 2016 and the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on Social Value. The general principles that we adhere to are:

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Achievement & performance

The operational and financial year of 2022-2023 can be characterised largely as twitchy and unpredictable but with an underlying self-confidence in a stable base and an ability to bounce back.

The key factors affecting the year can be distilled down to: -

  1. Recovering from the effects of the Covid lockdown

  2. Rebuilding the customer base and community confidence

  3. Dealing with a smaller customer and income base

  4. Dealing with the effects of the Cost-of-Living crisis including the cost of utilities and increase in the cost of goods.

  5. We still have a viable business with strong demand from the community/public.

In October we re-applied for the four-year funding contract/grant from the Royal Borough of Greenwich. Our application was initially turned down but was agreed on appeal. A presentation was made to the Overview and Scrutiny Committee. Our four-year grant is fixed at £10,000 per year, a reduction from £15,000 per annum.

Our Reach Out Project is a targeted programme to tackle social isolation and the vulnerable and disadvantaged amongst our community. The demand for these services has grown dramatically since the Covid lockdown. Our programme relies on partnership working with external specialists which present a challenge as many partners are reducing their activity. We are actively seeking more financial support to meet the demand.

The Café bar has remained the most resilient part of the business, with income remaining strong despite major increases in costs from suppliers. We Increased our prices by as much as to 10% during this time.

Our own and partnership-based arts and cultural programme has continued at a reasonable level but with slightly smaller audiences over the last 3 year. We have operated with with an acute lower risk-taking approach. The number of partners has got smaller but over the last few months there is a trend for audiences returning to events in larger numbers.

The staff team have remained largely positive and committed during this time despite the many challenges. It is a source of pride that collectively we provide a very warm, welcoming, and supporting environment to all. The staff numbers have remained consistent ans we are pleased not to have had to make any staff redundant.

Operationally, administratively, and promotionally we have maintained to present a 'service as usual' atmosphere which has been warmly welcomed by others. All marketing and promotional activity has carried on as normal.

Management and administration

We have maintained an effective operation with regular board meetings, quorate with the help of Zoom online services to help everyone attend. The support for staff and organisation by the board has been very welcome. The administrative and financial operations have remained fully functional with close attention being paid by staff to the future bookings, cashflow and financial management. It has to be said however that it is difficult to plan with any confidence for long term operations, due to external circumstances.

Maintenance, repairs and improvements

We continued to maintain the infrastructure and fabric of the inside of the centre as required by our Tenancy at Will contract with RBG. The outside of the building is the responsibility of RBG who have very limited resources to maintain it. We from time to time to undertake maintenance on the outside of the building, for example repair to sash windows and external fire escape which present major health and safety threats to users and visitors.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Reserves policy

The policy of the VCA is to hold financial reserves that, at minimum, are equivalent to the total operating costs of Mycenae House for a period of six months. For the year to March 2022 the Trustees considered that the appropriate level for the reserve was £150,000; this figure is reviewed on an annual basis.

The risks covered by the reserve have been identified as:

In addition, we continue to hold a Capital Works Reserve Fund to cover the anticipated cost of future major improvements we will seek to undertake to Mycenae House once we have been granted a long lease by the Royal Borough of Greenwich. The main component of this programme will be the installation of a passenger lift to provide easy access to all floors of the building for all our users, visitors and staff.

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31st March 2023

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Investment policy and objectives

The Trustees continue to take the view that bank deposits, savings bonds and building society savings accounts best meet the need for securing some return on our financial reserves for a minimum of risk. In these uncertain times the income from investments and interest has reduced to being largely negligible and this strategy is under review.

Overall position

The organisation experienced a further non-typical year which was affected by the major challenges of Covid, the cost of living crisis and associated financial effects. However, the turnover increased from £325.889 in 2021/22 to £379.037 in 2022/23. The costs of delivering services increased from £388.054 in the previous financial year to £465.702. This resulted in bottom line losses increasing from -£5131 to -£26,665.

Whilst this is a disappointing outcome for any normal year's operation, we feel it is a result of extraordinary external circumstances which could have been much worse.

Room and Hall hire increased from £180,262 to £269,681 The income from Café/Bar sales increased from £78,455 to £124,136

Our reserves remained largely constant sitting at £382,923.

Principal sources of income

The VCA receives core funding from the Royal Borough of Greenwich and occupies Mycenae House Community Centre, rent free under a Tenancy at Will lease from them.

Further income is produced from room rental to user groups, commercial hirers and from private functions such as weddings and birthday parties. Income is also produced from sales in the café bar facilities. In-kind funding is welcomed and is received from various sources.

The organisation applies for project funding from various sources on a project-by-project basis from Trusts, Foundations, Government sources and through general fundraising.

We have, in the first half of this year, benefitted considerably from the Furlough Job Retention Scheme and other government support funds.

FUTURE PLANS

For the future our plans include: -

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Recruitment and appointment of Management Committee

Our Board of Trustees consists of not more than 12 members who are elected at the Annual General Meeting from nominations submitted by the Members of the VCA. If there are vacancies on the Board, members can be co-opted at any time during the year but must retire at the next Annual General Meeting. In accordance with the requirements of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, one-third of the elected members of the Board retire at every Annual General Meeting. The members who retire are those who have been longest in office since their last election. In addition, at every Annual General Meeting, all co-opted members of the Board must retire. All Committee members who retire are eligible (subject to nomination) to re-election.

All members of the Board give their time voluntarily and receive no benefits.

Governance and management

The Board meets every two months on the third Tuesday of the month and is responsible for deciding the strategic direction and policy of the VCA. The HR and Finance Sub-Committees meet on an as-needed basis. This is usually every month, in the case of the Finance Sub-Committee. The Executive Director is responsible for the day to day running of Mycenae House and the implementation of Board decisions.

Trustee induction and training

All new Trustees are introduced after having had an interview and informal meeting with the Chair. They are invited to observe a trustee meeting before being co-opted and/or formally voted on to the committee. They are then given an induction pack of information containing key policies, advice and roles and responsibilities.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Vanbrugh Community Association

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Vanbrugh Community Association ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31st March 2023.

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 ERROR - relevant professional body must be completed, 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.

Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
