INTRODUCTION BY THE CHAIR OF TRUSTEES AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2023

Introduction by the Chair of Trustees and Chief Executive.

This year has been a period of enormous change at YMCA Fairthorne Group with the retirement of the Chief Executive, Chris Hand, after 37 years of dedicated service at the charity including 33 years as Chief Executive. We wish to celebrate the enormous contribution Chris has made in shaping and growing the charity into what it is today and we do not underestimate our responsibilities in stewarding YMCA Fairthorne Group through its next phase.

At the start of the year we were still being impacted by Covid with the first quarter of 2022 having been our highest period for staff illness. The impact of Covid on attendance at nursery of funded children, compounded by a falling birth rate in the period 2020-2022 meant that occupancy, particularly at our pre-schools, was slow to recover. The situation was exacerbated by the impact of rapidly rising inflation and the government’s refusal to increase the rate of “free” funded childcare to match the cost of delivery despite national campaigning from early years providers including ourselves. This combination of factors and our refusal to compromise on any of our early years quality standards meant that the trustees were forced to seek alternative providers for the 11 smallest of our 18 early years settings to underpin our determination to sustain the charity into the future.

A process was launched in September 2022 resulting in 5 settings being transferred to other early years providers and 6 settings being closed. At year end, 2 of the transfers remained in progress with both completed in summer 2023. We wish to express our heartfelt gratitude and thanks to all the staff at Barn Owls, Dunsbury Way, Portsea, Millbrook, Newtown, Sharps Copse, St Vincent, Townhill, Weston, Warren Park and Winchester House, as well as our wider staff team, for their patience and ongoing commitment to the families we served during this period of uncertainty and change.

In November our new CEO Phillipa Spicer was appointed and, following an organisational review, the senior team was restructured around our core functions. New trustees were recruited and the board has agreed a new strategic direction which focuses on 3 core impact areas: early years, young people in accommodation and community programmes, underpinned by a solid financial plan. The first months of delivery in 2023-24 have produced financial results ahead of plan and the charity is on track to deliver an operational position which will lay the groundwork for a bright future. The board’s priorities for the next year include expressing clarity of purpose, ensuring our culture aligns with our strategic aims and the implementation of improved systems to evidence our impact.

Despite the challenges and major change, there were still many successes in the period. Significant achievements include:

INTRODUCTION BY THE CHAIR OF TRUSTEES AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2023

As we write this report, over 1,000 young carers and their group leaders from across the UK are at YMCA Fairthorne Manor experiencing the highlight of their year at the Young Carers Festival. We have a strategy and financial plan which enables our charity to achieve enormous positive impact for children, young people and families and so it is time to draw a line under the challenges of the previous year and look forward into an exciting, sustainable future.

REPORT OF TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2023

Purpose and Charitable Objectives

The Trustees, who are also directors of the charity, submit their annual report (including the strategic report) and audited financial statements for the 12 month period ending 30 April 2023. The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, 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) the provisions of the Statement of Recommend Practice Accounting by Registered Social Landlords (SORP) "Accounting and Reporting by Charities" issued in March 2005 and the “Accounting Direction for private registered providers of social housing” issued in January 2022.

YMCA Fairthorne Group is a community-based charity whose purpose is “We believe everybody should have the opportunity to lead happy, healthy lives”. Our strategy is to establish YMCA places in close partnership with local communities and ensure the delivery of programmes that meet the needs of children, young people, and families.

Our Charitable Objectives as defined by our Articles of Association are:

Public Benefit

The Trustees confirm that they have complied with section 4 of the Charities Act 2006, to have due regard to the Charity Commissioners' general guidance on public benefit, 'Charities and Public Benefit'. The direct benefits that flow from our objectives are:

REPORT OF TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2023

Strategic Plan

A full review of the strategic plan took place in the year and a new strategy was agreed in April 2023 which refocuses our work around our vision statement “we will partner with communities so that every child, young person and family can belong, contribute and thrive”. We will be investing into quality and financial sustainability in 3 core areas of impact:

A strategy engagement process was launched across the charity in May and June 2023. The trustees and senior team have engaged Trust Impact to review our shared purpose concept to enable us to develop better systems for identifying, achieving and celebrating the impact of our work.

The YMCA Way

The YMCA Way describes how we design and deliver programmes. It consists of four equally weighted elements which in combination generate quality activities, offering opportunities for individual and community growth.

Values

Welcoming, Active, Listening, Inspiring, Caring, Exciting.

Community led

Community-led means we undertake activities the community wishes us to do, and wishes to be involved in.

Evidence led

We implement evidence-based practice to achieve positive impact.

Our Behaviours

We model behaviours derived from our values through all interactions with children, families, the community, and each other.

REPORT OF TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2023

Achievements and Activities

The Very Best Start In Life

1,133,420 hours of childcare and early years education were provided across our 18 early years settings at Andover, Barncroft, Dunsbury Way, Eastleigh, Fairthorne Manor, Gosport, Millbrook, New Milton, Newport, Newtown, Portsea, Shanklin, Sharps Copse, Townhill, Warren Park, Weston, Whale Island and Woolston.

An Inclusive Classroom Profile (ICP) project was rolled out across 7 YMCA settings to assess and improve inclusion across the charity. ICP serves as a powerful tool to enhance the inclusivity of early years settings and this project aims to strengthen outcomes for children by focusing on their diverse needs and providing tailored support. The project was established on a “train the trainer” basis and we now have 4 fully trained auditors who can sustain momentum plus offer the service to other non-YMCA early years settings. We are particularly proud of Andover who achieved the maximum score for inclusion in their most recent assessment.

The Best School Holidays

Children benefitted from exciting and engaging school holiday activities at our Daycamps programmes at Fairthorne Manor, Shanklin, and Portsmouth, with over 13,000 Daycamps sessions delivered in the year. We were able to secure further grant funding from the Department for Education’s Holidays Activities And Food scheme which funded places for children from families in receipt of benefits related free school meals or who faced adversity. At Fairthorne Manor, 110 HAF sessions were delivered and 495 at Winchester House in Shanklin.

Exciting Group Activities and Residentials

9,188 people attended day and residential group activities at our sites at Fairthorne Manor in Hampshire and Winchester House in Isle of Wight.

Young People in Housing

244 young people received support while living in YMCA housing in Basingstoke, Southampton and Isle of Wight. A total of 55 young people successfully moved on to independent living.

The Lodge worked in partnership with Isle of Wight Council and other local housing providers to develop and then pilot an audit tool for Psychologically Informed Environments which fully engaged young people in quality improvements that contribute to wider wellbeing.

Staff completed training in Advantaged Thinking and a process was launched with the Foyer Federation for Southampton and Basingstoke housing to become Advantaged Thinking Accredited by 2024.

Young people were supported to receive energy support and other cost of living grants where eligible. In Basingstoke, 44 young people benefited from a total of £17,600 towards their personal utility costs and over £70,000 in grant funding from the local authority to help with the cost of living crisis.

Community Programmes

An enormous variety of community programmes and activities took place through the year at our branches including activities directly delivered by YMCA, and schemes delivered in partnership with other organisations. This includes food and clothing banks, speciality support meetings, family activities, fitness classes and healthy lifestyle meetings. Below are some examples:

A successful grant application was made to the Youth Investment Fund for YMCA Newtown Youth and Community Centre which had experienced vandalism over the Covid period and was in poor condition. The centre will be fully refurbished with a new design enabling facilities to be available to the local community at all times. A dedicated staff member has spent the year building relationships with community groups and the centre now offers a thriving set of programmes for children, young people, families and specialist groups with community organisations co-located in the building and co-delivering services with YMCA.

Support for the local community at Andover saw local families in need benefit from a range of services including regular food boxes and Christmas hampers.

YMCA FAIRTHORNE GROUP

REPORT OF TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2023

Winchester House in Shanklin hosted a range of community partners including Isle of Wight Foodbank and Men’s Sheds. In April 2023 a long-established local school holiday activity provider moved into the former nursery space with an average of 50 children per day attending exciting activities.

A mother and baby group funded by the Community Capacity Grant provided weekly activities including messy play and support for local families at Winchester House who otherwise would not be able to attend a nursery.

Isle of Wight Young carers offered much needed school holiday respite to 397 young carers.

At Fairthorne Manor, 16,245 people enjoyed a range of family programmes including Treetots, Family Park, river access and craft hire, and camping.

Fundraising

A total of £257k was received in the form of grants:

The Trustees would like to thank the following organisations which have supported the work of YMCA Fairthorne Group during the course of the financial period:

Co-operative Group Daisy Rich Trust Hampshire County Council HMRC Isle of Wight Council Pilgrim Trust Saints Foundation Sir Jeremiah Trust Southampton City Council The Misselbrook Trust The White Aid Foundation YMCA England and Wales

No external professional fundraiser or commercial participator was used during this period. Fundraising activities were monitored by the fundraising team, including ensuring that there were no unreasonable intrusions or approaches made in raising funds, either directly or on behalf of the organisation. No complaints were received in relation to fundraising.

Plans for Future Periods

New Strategy and Vision

At the start of the new financial year in May 2023 the board and senior team agreed a new strategic direction for the charity with a focus on housing, early years and community programmes. The strategy sets out how we will achieve impact for each beneficiary and how the charity will achieve the long-term financial sustainability needed to reinvest in services and infrastructure. The strategy launched in summer 2023 and is complemented by operational plans and a new KPI system. The board and team will be working further on purpose alignment and developing a new theory of change in the year to refine outcome and impact reporting.

Young People

Housing support and management is being restructured around the needs of young people and the team will be spending the year observing the approaches and successes achieved at other YMCAs and applying the learning in Basingstoke, Southampton and Isle of Wight. A new concept of a young person’s “campus” is being developed with the aim that the relationships we have with young people, the support and activities available to them, and the physical environment are all transformed to address the 3 core challenges they face: good mental health; a safe, affordable home; and access to meaningful employment. A rent bursary fund will be established to help young people sustain their home in a supported environment when in employment.

REPORT OF TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2023

Early Years

A Director of Early Years was appointed in January 2023 to oversee quality and financial sustainability of the 7 retained early years settings. Early years funding remains a critical issue and the charity will be developing its early years on a commercial basis to ensure each setting thrives.

Community

Fairthorne Manor is recognised as the heart of our charity and an underutilised resource. A process of transformation will launch in the new year with a focus on community activities and access so that Fairthorne Manor becomes the destination of choice for schools and families, and a refresh of long-standing programmes to ensure they are fit for the future.

Our People

Retaining a highly-motivated and happy workforce is critical for delivering the new strategy. An employee assistance programme has launched and a project reviewing reward and recognition will complete in December 2023. An employee engagement survey was carried out early in the new financial year and this valuable feedback is being fed into central and site-specific plans.

Financial Review

The income within the year was £12.3m which is £1.3m higher than the previous year. This is much better trading performance than the prior year showing a pick up in Fairthorne Manor post COVID and in line with 2019 income levels. The decision was taken in the year to rationalise the Early Years portfolio and focus on the larger settings that have the potential for growth and to be cash generating, resulting in the transfer or closure of 11 smaller settings, many of which were loss making. The deficit in the accounts relating to these settings and the exceptional costs relating to the exit/transfer were £612k driving much of the overall deficit of £1.4m. Cost reductions and tight cost management remains in place.

Risk Management

Our Risk Policy is a regular focus of the Board. Risk is the threat or possibility that an action or event (or sometimes inaction) will adversely affect an organisation's ability to achieve its objectives. The aim of our risk policy is to enable YMCA Fairthorne Group to achieve our mission. Therefore, we accept those risks to which we must subject ourselves to deliver our mission. We strive to:

We aim to understand, document and review all significant risks which arise from our ongoing activities. We do this by making and regularly updating a business risk analysis and following up all matters which require attention. Where controls can be created or improved in a practical and cost-effective manner, these are implemented. Senior members of staff are contractually obliged to report any major risk to the Board.

Our operations are subject to regular review by a number of external agencies, including Ofsted, Environmental Health agencies, auditors and others.

Reserves Policy

The Trustees note that an appropriate level of free reserves should be maintained to safeguard the obligations under all contracts and the needs of all the beneficiaries or users of the Fairthorne Group. In any circumstances, the charity must also have sufficient funds available to act as a responsible employer to all staff members. It has been agreed that the following factors need to be taken into consideration in fixing the levels of reserves:

Page 10

YMCA FAIRTHORNE GROUP

REPORT OF TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2023

Bearing in mind the considerations given above, it has been resolved that there should be a target of unallocated free reserves in the range of £200,000 - £800,000.

Investments Policy

The Trustees have kept reserves as liquid as possible during the last year. This has been to ensure that the charity has been able to meet its obligations to creditors and staff by careful management of cash flow. The Trustees will continue to monitor the situation throughout the year. Specialist advice will be sought when required and will be reviewed by the Trustees.

Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities

The trustees (who are also the directors of YMCA Fairthorne Group for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

In so far as the trustees are aware:

Report of the trustees, incorporating a strategic report, approved by order of the board of trustees, as the company directors, on 13 October 2023 and signed on the board's behalf by:

YMCA FAIRTHORNE GROUP

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF YMCA FAIRTHORNE GROUP, YMCA FAIRTHORNE HOUSING AND PARK FAMILIES LIMITED FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2023

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of YMCA Fairthorne Group (the 'parent charity') and its subsidiaries (the 'group') for the year ended 30 April 2023 which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Financial Activities (incorporating an income and expenditure account), the Consolidated and Charity Balance Sheets, the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, and Notes to the Financial Statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion, the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Emphasis of matter related to going concern

We draw your attention to note 2 of the financial statements, which notes that the subsidiary organisation, Park Families Limited is gradually discontinuing its activities. At the year end date the assets have been impaired to their recoverable amount.

Other information

The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

YMCA FAIRTHORNE GROUP

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF YMCA FAIRTHORNE GROUP, YMCA FAIRTHORNE HOUSING AND PARK FAMILIES LIMITED FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2023

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees’ Annual Report (including the group strategic report).

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of the trustees

As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the group’s and the parent charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the group or the parent charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Extent to which the audit was capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud

"Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. Due to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities even though the audit has been properly planned and performed in accordance with the ISAs (UK). The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:"

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charity’s members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity’s members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2023

1. GENERAL INFORMATION

YMCA Fairthorne Group is a charitable company, limited by guarantee, incorporated in England and Wales under the Companies Act 2006. The address of the registered office is Fairthorne Manor, Botley Road, Curbridge, Southampton, Hampshire, SO30 2GH.

The consolidated accounts include YMCA Fairthorne Group, YMCA Fairthorne Housing and Park Families for the full accounting period in the current year and YMCA Fairthorne Group and YMCA Fairthorne Housing for the full accounting period in the prior year and Park Families Limited from 20 September 2021.

2. 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.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investments which are included at market value.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest thousand.

Preparation of consolidated financial statements

These financial statements consolidate the results of the charity and its two wholly owned subsidiaries, YMCA Fairthorne Housing and Park Families Limited, on a line by line basis, using the acquisition method of accounting. The results of the subsidiary undertakings are included from the date of acquisition in the prior year. Park Families Limited was acquired by the YMCA Fairthorne Group on 1 October 2021 and trades as YMCA Park Families.

Going concern

The net current liabilities stand at £6,913k (2022 net current liabilities: £6,310k) at the balance sheet date. The net current liabilities include the loan with Barclays as it falls due at the end of March 24 which is £6.4m. Discussions are in place with Barclays who have given the commitment to refinance the loan and property valuations are in progress to achieve this. A cash generating budget has been signed off for FY24 and the results YTD are on track.

The charity known as Park Families under the control of YMCA Fairthorne Group is gradually discontinuing its activities and is in the process of disposing of its remaining trade and property assets. At the date of this report, a date for the disposal of ‘The Hub’ is not known. YMCA Fairthorne Group have confirmed their continued support, the results of Park Families are material to the group results.

The Trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about YMCA Fairthorne Group's ability to continue as a going concern.

Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In preparing these financial statements, the key judgements have been made in respect of the following:

Whether there are indicators of impairment of the group's housing properties and other tangible assets. Factors taken into consideration in reaching such a decision include the economic viability and expected future financial performance of the asset and where it is a component of a larger cash-generating unit, the viability and expected future performance of that unit. The trustees have considered the measurement basis to determine the recoverable amount of assets where there are indicators of impairment based on Existing Value in Use for Social Housing (EUV-SH) or depreciated replacement cost. The trustees have also considered impairment based on their assumptions to define cash or asset generating units.

Other key sources of estimation uncertainty:

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2023

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Income

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to items of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. All income arose in the UK.

Income from charitable activities includes programme fees and youth work. Income is recognised in accordance with service provision.

Donations are recognised when the charity has been notified in writing of both the amount and settlement date. In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of performance before the charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the charity and it is probable that those conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period.

Rental income and service charge income is recognised in the period for which the service was provided to the resident.

Grants

Grants received from non-government sources are recognised using the performance model. A grant which does not impose specified future performance conditions is recognised as revenue when the grant proceeds are received or receivable. Where a social landlord acquires land/or other assets at below market value from another entity, this is in substance considered to be a grant. Where grants are given by a non-government source without restriction or conditions, the whole amount can be recognised upon receipt.

A grant that imposes specified future performance-related conditions on the association is recognised only when these conditions are met. A grant received before the revenue recognition criteria are satisfied is recognised as a liability.

Government grants will be recognised in full provided they meet the recognition criteria, grants relating to revenue are recognised in income and expenditure over the same period as the expenditure to which they relate, once reasonable assurance has been gained that the entity will comply with the conditions and that the funds will be received. Government grants received during the period includes:

If restrictions are attached and the grant is used to purchase fixed assets, the expenditure of the grant will be recognised over the same period as the useful live of the asset.

Expenditure and basis of allocation of costs

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.

Support costs

Support costs represent the costs incurred directly in support of the objectives of the charity.

Finance costs

Finance costs are charged to income and expenditure over the term of the debt using the effective interest rate method so that the amount charged is at a constant rate on the carrying amount. Issue costs are initially recognised as a reduction in the proceeds of the associated capital instrument.

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets costing more than £1k (2022: £1k) are capitalised and included at cost, including non-recoverable VAT. Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets at rates calculated to write off the cost on a straight-line basis over their expected useful economic lives as follows:

Plant and machinery over 3 to 20 years
Fixtures and fittings - Park Families 25 % reducing balance
Office equipment, computer equipment and motor vehicles over 3 to 5 years

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2023

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Freehold and long leasehold

Depreciation is provided on buildings on a straight line basis over 5-50 years. The long leasehold premium is amortised over the length of 50 years. No depreciation is charged on freehold land.

Depreciation of housing properties

Housing land and property acquired before 2019 is split between land and property. Housing land and property acquired since 2019 will be split between land, structure and other major components that are expected to require replacement over time with substantially different economic lives.

Depreciation charged on Housing property acquired prior to 2019 is depreciated based on the cost of the property as a whole. Housing property acquired after 2019 will be split between the structure and the major components which will require periodic replacement. The cost of any replacements or restorations to the major components are capitalised and depreciated over the determined average useful economic life on a straight line basis as follows:

Description Useful economic life (years)
Structure 100
Roofs 70
Kitchens 20
Bathrooms 30
Boilers 10-15
Electrical work 5
Central heating 30
Windows 30
Lifts 20
Land is not depreciated on account of its indefinite useful economic life.

Depreciation methods, useful lives and residual values are reviewed if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date in the pattern by which the group expects to consume an asset's future economic benefit.

Donated assets and services

When assets are donated to the charity, the value of the donation forms the deemed cost of the asset to the group. Similarly any assets acquired from another charity are valued in the group accounts at fair value which forms the deemed cost to the group.

Impairment

Assets that no longer provide a service value to the group are written down to residual value or otherwise impaired.

Stocks

Stocks consists of catering items. Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

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. Designated funds are unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees for particular purposes. 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.

Where funds are provided for the purchase of fixed assets or fixed assets are donated and there is a restriction on the charity's entitlement to the full sale proceeds, those assets are held in restricted funds to the extent of the restriction and amortised over the economic life of those assets.

Financial instruments

Debtors and creditors

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 the income statement in other operating expenses.

Operating leases

Rentals applicable to operating leases are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities over the period in which the cost is incurred.

Defined benefit pension scheme

YMCA Fairthorne Group participated in a multi-employer defined benefit pension plan for employees of YMCAs in England, Scotland and Wales, which was closed to new members and accruals on 30 April 2007. Due to insufficient information, the plan's actuary has advised that it is not possible to separately identify the assets and liabilities relating to YMCA Fairthorne Group.

As described in note 23 YMCA Fairthorne Group has a contractual obligation to make pension deficit payments of £56,209 pa over the period to April 2029 (2022: £43,030 pa), accordingly this is shown as a liability in these accounts. In addition, YMCA Fairthorne Group is required to contribute £13k pa (2022: £12k pa) to the operating expenses of the Pension Plan and these costs are charged to the Statement of Comprehensive Income as made.

18. BANK LOAN

The bank loans and overdraft facilities are secured over the group's freehold property.

The loans of the charity and fellow group companies are secured on the assets of YMCA Fairthorne Group and its subsidiaries via a bank cross guarantee.

The charity has a £4,500k loan facility, from which £4,350k was drawn down in 2017 and £150k was drawn down in January 2018.

This loan is due to be repaid 5 years after the date of its first draw down. Repayments are being made based on a 19 year repayment profile. Interest accrues on the loan at a rate of 1.99% above the Bank of England base rate.

During 2018, YMCA Fairthorne Housing took out a long term loan for £2,870k; the full amount being drawn down.

This loan is due to be repaid 5 years after the date of draw down. Repayments are being made based on a 20 year repayment profile. Interest accrues on the loan at a rate of 1.99% above the Bank of England base rate.

During both the current and prior period, the bank allowed for capital repayment holidays. No capital repayments were made between October 2021 and March 2022 as a result. Repayments recommenced April 2022 in line with the original loan agreement's agreed repayment plan. Interest was calculated on outstanding balances and paid via the respective bank accounts.

The Trustees acknowledge the continued level of creditors falling due within one year. The balance relates to the Barclays loan, an extension of the loan terms has been agreed with Barclays, the terms of the loan are due for renewal in April 2024. Conversations regarding the renewal continue to take place and the trustees fully intend to renew the terms of the loan and believe the going concern of the organisation is not impacted by the renewal.

An analysis of the maturity of the bank loans is given below:

23. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT OBLIGATIONS

YMCA Fairthorne Group participated in a multi-employer defined benefit pension plan for employees of YMCAs in England, Scotland and Wales, which was closed to new members and accruals on 30 April 2007. Due to insufficient information, the plan's actuary has advised that it is not possible to separately identify the assets and liabilities relating to YMCA Fairthorne Group.

The most recent completed three year valuation was as at 1 May 2020. The assumptions used which have the most significant effect on the results of the valuation are those relating to the assumed rates of return on assets held before and after retirement of 2.59% and 1.09% respectively, the increase in pensions in payment of 2.99% (for RPI capped at 5% p.a.), and the average life expectancy from normal retirement age (of 65) for a current male pensioner of 22.0 years, female 24.4 years, and 23.7 years for a male pensioner, female 26.1 years, retiring in 20 years’ time. The result of the valuation showed that the actuarial value of the assets was £146.1m, which represented 79% of the benefits that had accrued to members.

The Pension Plan was closed to new members and future service accrual with effect from 30 April 2007. With the removal of the salary linkage for benefits all employed deferred members became deferred members as from 1 May 2011.

The valuation prepared as at 1 May 2020 showed that the YMCA Pension Plan had a deficit of £39 million.YMCA Fairthorne Group has been advised that it will need to make monthly contributions of £5k from 1 May 2023. This amount is based on the current actuarial assumptions (as outlined above) and may vary in the future as a result of actual performance of the Pension Plan. Agreed future deficit contributions have been discounted using a rate of 3% (2022: 3%). The current recovery period is 6 years commencing 1st May 2023.

Within 1 year 1 to 2 years 2 to 5 years After 5 years Total
£'000 £'000 £'000 £'000 £'000
30 April 2023 57 58 184 65 364
30 April 2022 44 46 145 104 339

In addition, YMCA Fairthone Group may have over time liabilities in the event of the non-payment by other participating YMCAs of their share of the YMCA Pension Plan’s deficit. It is not possible currently to quantify the potential amount that YMCA Fairthorne Group may be called upon to pay in the future.

24. CONTINGENT LIABILITIES

Note 13 to the financial statements includes a property which is subject to a contingent payment on sale. In the unlikely event that the property was sold, at its most recent obtained valuation of £870k, an amount of £348k (representing 40%) of the sale proceeds would be payable to the Girls' Friendly Society. No liability has been recognised in the financial statements as YMCA Fairthorne Group has no immediate plans to sell the property. This liability remains at 40% up until 2024; thereafter there would be no amount to pay.
