## **Objectives of the Charity, Principle Activities and Organisation of our Work**
The charity is constituted as a company limited by guarantee and is therefore governed by a Memorandum and Articles of Association.
ACE was founded in 1990 in response to the identified gap in education and training opportunities for adults with learning disabilities and mental health issues. ACE continues to fill a gap within the local market of care providers by offering lifelong learning opportunities to a client group that have been marginalised and excluded from post 25 education and training.
ACE supports individuals to become more self-reliant by offering individually tailored learning programmes covering a range of independent living skills. Our learning programmes enable students to get the best out of their lives, learning about how to use community facilities and integrate with others where they live. ACE: Explain the main activities undertaken to further the charity's purposes for the public benefit and include confirmation that the trustees have given due consideration to the Charity Commission's guidance on the public benefit requirement...
• Provides a flexible, person centred curriculum facilitating optimum use of local community resources;
Page 2
**Ace Adult Community Education (Wigan) Limited Trustees Annual Report**
• Provides, selects and uses appropriate resources to support an individual learning programme including opportunities for progression;
• Recruits and trains experienced well qualified staff to deliver an effective service based on individuals’ needs;
• Offers Life Skills courses (including for example Citizenship, Self-Advocacy, Using Transport, Digital Technology, Meal Preparation, Healthy Living, Employability) which lead to local and/or national accreditation;
- Provides a range of facilities to enhance personal development and advocacy skills;
• Establishes links with local schools, colleges and training providers to ease the student’s transition into adulthood and promote lifelong learning. These links help students to transfer easily into provision at ACE or to leave to pursue greater independence;
• Maintains links in local and national networks to promote the interests of people with learning disabilities and maintain awareness of related issues; and
• Support students to greater independence.
## **Financial Review**
In the last year ACE faced acute financial risks: successive lockdowns and restrictions forced us to close and re-open our teaching sites, furlough all staff, ask volunteers to step down temporarily and cancel teaching sessions, apart from what could be reinvented online. Along with a grant, which was awarded to non-essential businesses, we were extremely grateful to receive Local Authority payments based on commissioned support hours, to preserve capacity in the service when we were allowed to resume in-person sessions.
Between 27th March 2020 and 1st September 2020 ACE was closed and all staff members were furloughed and most of their salary costs recovered through the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme. A total of £35,108 was claimed from the CJRS in respect of staff. In addition, we were able to apply for a £10,000 Discretionary Business Grant to mitigate the impact of COVID-19 on the charity’s free reserves.
The Trustees are monitoring closely the impact of the pandemic on both short and longer-term operations. The Trustees are satisfied that there are sufficient funds in current bank accounts to continue operating and meet liabilities as they fall due, for the foreseeable future..
## **Students**
Each student has a learning plan, which details their learning outcomes and includes statements of what the student is expected to know, understand and/or do as a result of learning at ACE. These vary considerably between individual students based on their aspirations and needs. Outcomes may include:
• The skills to live more independently and increased communication skills, confidence and autonomy, leading to improved resilience and reduced risk;
- The ability to understand and develop healthy relationships with peers;
- Qualifications which enable them to progress to further education;
• Increased independence and autonomy achieved through developing skills in using adaptive technology; and
• Gaining the employability skills, experience, and where appropriate, qualifications to obtain voluntary, supported or paid employment.
## **Staff**
Page 3
**Ace Adult Community Education (Wigan) Limited Trustees Annual Report**
The Trustees recognise the essential role that staff and volunteers play in providing a high quality service. Every teaching session is led by an experienced Tutor who holds a relevant Level 5 teaching qualification, such as the Postgraduate Certificate in Education (PGCE), the Certificate in Education, and the professional recognition of Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) or Qualified Teacher Learning and Skills (QTLS). A Learning Support Officer supports the Tutor to ensure all students engage in learning and stay on task during the session or activity. All our staff and volunteers have been through an enhanced DBS check.
We are committed to building and developing the knowledge, skills and experience of all staff members and volunteers. The organisation understands that professional development and training contribute to the effectiveness and the quality of the service the team provides. Therefore, ACE provides training and development opportunities for all its employees and volunteers so that they can perform their work effectively and in a safe working environment.
## **Volunteers and Work Based Experience**
As a charity ACE believes in fulfilling social aims such as creating jobs, providing volunteering opportunities and offering new skills and development to local people. We continue to offer placements for students from local and regional institutions, such as Wigan and Leigh College, St John Rigby College, Winstanley College, Salford University, Liverpool Hope University, Edge Hill University and Bolton University. The students are studying in the areas of teaching and health and social care at degree level or for qualifications such as BTEC.
## **Networks and Partnerships**
ACE continuously develops mature and collaborative relationships not only with the students it supports but also with other partners, who are working closely with our students to develop care and support solutions. These include informal carers and families, a range of allied health professionals, other education providers, landlords, care providers and wider community connections, such as the police and DWP.
ACE has established local links with local groups from the Vocational, Community and Social Enterprise sector, community leaders and the Police. We bring community services into ACE to support teaching sessions and use our classroom facilities to support community events.
Our team have established good collaborative relationships with the Council. We propose regular review meetings to review contract KPI achievement reports on a quarterly basis with formal annual review, and to discuss ideas for service development initiatives and improvement. We continue to attend and contribute to Provider Forums and events held by the Council.
## **Structure Governance and Management**
ACE is led by a voluntary management committee of Trustees and a Senior Tutor, who have a strong commitment to the staff and students. There is a strong vision, which is important in influencing a range of outcomes, including a low staff turnover that provides stability for our students. The Trustees and the Senior Tutor are highly visible role models with strong ethics, who focus on fairness, respect, diversity, equality and recognition. We ensure legal compliance and fair pricing, whilst treating students as equal partners in the management of the organisation.
The Trustees meet every 6 weeks and review significant events to drive continuous improvement. We take a proactive approach to performance management to prevent issues from occurring and to address emerging issues in the early stages through targeted action.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. The Trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

- Recognition of Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis. Expenditure includes any VAT which expenditure 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 and charitable activities 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.

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 12
**Ace Adult Community Education (Wigan) Limited 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.
