**THE BATH HOUSE CHILDREN'S COMMUNITY CENTRE**
## **COMMITTEE MEMBERS' REPORT for the year ended 31 March 2022**
The Management Committee members, who are also directors of the Charity for the purposes of Company law, and trustees for the purposes of charity law, submit their annual report and the financial statements of The Bath House Children's Community Centre (the Bath House) for the year ended 31 March 2022. The Management Committee has adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” (FRS 102) in preparing the annual report and financial statements of the charity.
## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT**
The Company's governing document is its Memorandum and Articles of Association.
The management of the Bath House is the responsibility of the Management Committee members. Committee members are appointed at Annual General Meetings or co-opted at any time between Annual General Meetings by the Management Committee.
## **Recruitment and appointment of new trustees**
Under the requirements of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the members of the Committee shall hold office until the conclusion of the next Annual General Meeting after their election or co-option, as the case may be, but shall be eligible for re-election or re-co-option.
## **Organisational structure**
From January 2016 Ofsted, as recommended by the Department of Education (DfE), have said that a charity's Nominated Person, who represents the charity in their dealings with Ofsted, must be a Board member of the governing body of the charity, therefore such a registered individual must be a company director/charity trustee.
The Management Committee considered the changes and duly appointed Maggie Norwood as a member of the Management Committee.
The Management Committee have and will continue to oversee the management, development and financial security of the Bath House. The Bath House normally finds new trustees as necessary amongst Bath House parents.
## **Induction and training of new trustees**
Most Committee members are familiar with the practical work of the Children's Community Centre and have undertaken training to support their role. New Management Committee members are invited and encouraged to attend training sessions and an introduction pack is given to all new members. Any new Committee members attend a governance training day. There were no new Committee member during the period.
## **Related parties**
Apart from the working relationship between the funders, sometimes referred to as supporters, there were no other related parties to the charity other than the Committee members and their close family. Following the appointment of Maggie Norwood as charity trustee, her salary in her role as Projects Director of the Bath House is reported as a related party transaction. In the year under review, no other related party transaction took place. To protect and maintain the integrity and independence of the Management Committee, it is charity policy that Maggie Norwood withdraws from any meeting where her terms or conditions of employment are discussed.

**THE BATH HOUSE CHILDREN'S COMMUNITY CENTRE**
## **COMMITTEE MEMBERS' REPORT for the year ended 31 March 2022**
## **Staff and training**
The Bath House staff team is reduced post pandemic. 24 people were employed, mostly on a part-time basis, equivalent to 16 full-time posts.
In 2019 the Bath House adopted the London Living Wage policy. The Bath House continues with this policy. No staff at the Bath House are paid lower than the London Living Wage.
Professional development and staff training remain a high priority, and all staff are encouraged to further their skills and understanding by taking courses. There is a rolling program of training in Paediatric First Aid, Food Hygiene, and Safeguarding, as these qualifications need renewing every 3 years.
The Bath House offered students placements again during this year.
We have continued to have very close contact with Hackney Education Special Needs Team and they have provided professional support to us for children with Special Needs. Some childcare staff at The Bath House have had training in Special Educational Needs provided by Hackney Education. Hackney Education holds the work at The Bath House with Special Needs children in high esteem.
## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES**
## **Charitable objects**
For children and young people in the London Boroughs of Hackney and Islington:
A) Benefit the community by providing facilities for the care, recreation, and education of children aged one to five years in a playgroup and nursery setting, and children aged three to fourteen years in out of school hours and holiday periods.
B) Advance the education and training of the workers and volunteers in the provision of the care, education and recreational facilities.
C) Provide family support and improve family welfare and conditions of life through childcare, education, and recreational provision.
## **Public benefit**
In developing the objectives for the year and in planning our activities, the Committee have considered the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit. The Bath House provides great benefit to local families as we provide a high quality, affordable and continuous childcare service for children aged 12 months to the end of primary school. This service enables parents to work, train, and manage their family life with very good childcare support. The Bath House assists its employees, students on placement, and volunteers, in their professional development, helping to create a skilled childcare workforce. The Bath House supports children in their learning, and in the development of social skills, and has been of great benefit to children with additional needs who require specialised care and input to assist their inclusion in childcare services. The Bath House is a highly regarded childcare centre (designated as Outstanding by Ofsted) with a strong reputation of operating with a community ethos, helping families in need wherever possible, with the aid of charitable and statutory funding.
## **Effect of the Covid 19 Pandemic on the Bath House**
The beginning of the financial year 2021/2 saw the Bath House still operating with reduced numbers of children and staff as many families were reluctant to return until Covid had shown signs of reduction in the general population. Most staff received vaccinations, and by September 2021 we felt able to operate at full capacity. All the staff who had remained on furlough or part-furlough returned to their previous work schedules by September 2021.

**THE BATH HOUSE CHILDREN'S COMMUNITY CENTRE**
## **COMMITTEE MEMBERS' REPORT for the year ended 31 March 2022**
However, due to many families having left the area, and many more parents still working from home, our oldest age-group of pre-school children continued with reduced numbers for the coming academic year. We had a reduced staff team due to the redundancies that had taken place, and we redeployed staff into other rooms, building up our number of two year olds significantly. Our two youngest groups achieved our planned capacity and exceeded that number in the case of one group, while the pre-school group numbers remained low throughout the year.
## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE Charitable activities**
The Bath House is situated in the London Borough of Hackney. School results in Hackney had been very poor for a number of years, however recent results show the primary and secondary schools are now achieving some of the best results in the whole country. We feel that the Bath House has played a role in helping to attain these results as high quality early years support and education is considered to be paramount in raising the educational attainment of Hackney children. The Bath House nursery children feed into the local schools and it is committed to giving children a very positive start to their education by building their self-esteem and providing stimulating and creative play.
Uniquely in Hackney, the Bath House had, pre-pandemic, offered continuity of care for children from 12 months to 11 years, as we offered nursery care, after school care, and holiday care. These services enabled us to give long-term support to children and families. Sadly since the pandemic we no longer have after school and holiday care. This is partly due to wanting to reduce the density of staff and children in our building to prevent the spread of Covid and also the fact that the 2020 restructuring in the hall has reduced the space available for the older children. More nursery children stay for a long day now and require the hall as their main nursery room.
The Bath House offers very high quality and affordable childcare to all local families, in line with our stated aims, and to the benefit of the local community. The waiting list is open to all and places are allocated on a first come first served basis. We include all children and have many children from low-income families, and children with special needs that require special attention and often a one to one support worker. Our Special Needs co-coordinator works with specialist agencies to ensure that children and families receive all the additional support they require.
Our childcare services are usually fully subscribed, with waiting lists for the Nursery. The pandemic lowered demand for places and there were less children than usual in the nursery. The numbers built up over the year but did not reach our normal capacity.
The Bath House website www.bathhouse.org.uk received over 1000 unique visitors per month.
## **OFSTED Inspection**
The Bath House received an OFSTED inspection on the 1st March 2022 and we achieved a GOOD rating. We were slightly disappointed as in our previous inspections, in 2010 and 2015, we were rated OUTSTANDING. We were pleased that our work with children with Special Needs was given a special mention as being Outstanding.
## **Fundraising activities**
We have a programme of fundraising throughout the year for the grants administered by Hackney Education that subsidise nursery education. We offer places to children who receive the means tested 2 year old grant, and we receive either the 15 or 30 hours Nursery Education grants for all 3 and 4 year olds. We also applied for and received a Covid restriction business grant of £10350 administered via Hackney Council.

**THE BATH HOUSE CHILDREN'S COMMUNITY CENTRE**
## **COMMITTEE MEMBERS' REPORT for the year ended 31 March 2022**
## **FINANCIAL REVIEW**
## **Principal funding sources**
Furlough (via the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme) provided £65,840, Nursery Education grants provided £136,652 and Parents’ fees £399,620.
## **Reserves policy**
The Committee has agreed that the Charity should build up its reserves to enable it to cover at least three months' wages for the staff and associated overheads. This is currently estimated at £170,000. At the yearend the free reserves stood at £171,357. In calculating free reserves the Trustees have excluded the designated reserve that represents fixed assets.
## **FUTURE PLANS**
The Bath House will continue to provide our staff with many training opportunities, and to maximise their potential, with a view to raising the standard of the childcare sector workforce. We will also continue to provide placements for students from local schools and colleges, benefitting these students in gaining valuable experience, and in some cases leading on to employment either at The Bath House or in another setting.
The Bath House will continue to support children with special needs and will seek funding for special needs and families in hardship and hard to reach families. This intention is in line with our aim of providing opportunity and the highest quality care and education to young children, and also providing long-term benefit for the families involved by including their children in our provision, and offering support and guidance to parents in need of assistance.
## **PREPARATION OF THE REPORT**
This report has been prepared taking advantage of the small companies exemption of section 415A of the Companies Act 2006.
## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER**
The independent examiner, Simon Erskine FCA FCIE DChA, has indicated his willingness to accept reappointment.

**INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE OF THE BATH HOUSE CHILDREN'S COMMUNITY CENTRE**
I report to the charity trustees (Committee members) on my examination of the accounts of The Bath House 1 Children's Community Centre for the year ended 31 March 2022 which are set out on pages 7 to 18.
This report is made solely to the Management Committee, as a body, in accordance with regulations made under section 154 of the Charities Act 2011. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the Management Committee matters I am required to state to them in an Independent Examiner’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Management Committee for my independent examination work, for this report, or for the statement I have given below.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity 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 company’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 the company’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I 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 that in any material respect:
- **•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).

It is not considered that a significant amount of time has been spent on fundraising and hence no costs have been allocated to this heading.
## **(e) Support costs allocation**
Support costs are those that assist the work of the charity but do not directly represent charitable activities and include office costs, governance costs, administrative payroll costs. They are incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the charity. Staff costs have been allocated between governance costs, other support costs and charitable activities on an estimated time basis by member of staff. Other overheads, including premises costs, have been allocated pro rata to staff costs.
## _**(f) Tangible fixed assets**_
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost (or deemed cost) or valuation less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as intended.
Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, 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:
|Freehold land|-|not depreciated|
|---|---|---|
|Freehold buildings and improvements|-|50 years|
|Office equipment and fittings|-|5 years|
|Centre fixtures and fittings|-|5 years|
## _**(g) 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 expenditure.
## _**(h) Loans and borrowings**_
Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the transaction price including transaction costs.
## _**(i) Employee benefits**_
When employees have rendered service to the charity, 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 BATH HOUSE CHILDREN'S COMMUNITY CENTRE**
**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ended 31 March 2022**
The charity operates a defined contribution plan for the benefit of its employees. Contributions are expensed as they become payable.
## _**(j) Tax**_
The charity is an exempt charity within the meaning of schedule 3 of the Charities Act 2011 and is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes.
## _**(k) Going concern**_
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.
## _**(l) Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty**_
No judgements (apart from those involving estimates) have been made in the process of applying the above accounting policies and there are no key sources of estimation uncertainty.
