REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2023
The trustees who are also 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 2023. 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 applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
The Charity's objectives and principal activity, as defined by the Memorandum and Articles of Association, are:
-
To provide and promote education and care for children in the area of benefit through play and recreational activities. - To help educate children and young people in the area of benefit without distinction of sex, sexual orientation, race or political, religious or other opinion, through their leisure time activities so to develop their physical, mental and spiritual capacities that they might grow to full maturity as individuals and members of society and so that their conditions of live may be improved.
-
To provide and promote education and support of children and young people in the area of benefit who have special educational needs or who are socially excluded for other reasons through integration and inclusion into mainstream service provision.
-
To provide such support to parents and carers of children and young people referred to in the above objects as will assist in the pursuit of those objects.
Honeycroft provides services to meet its objects through a range of activities based at the centre in Hove. This includes a nursery and crèche facilities. An after school club provides for children from 5 years up until 11 years for both after school and holiday times, and a Volunteering Project provides opportunities for parents, carers and others to become involved in all aspects of the services. The Centre provides a a range of partnership projects based on current funding and need including male carers stay and play sessions, intergenerational yoga project and multiple births coffee mornings.
Public benefit
In shaping our objectives and planning our activities for the year, the Trustees have given consideration to the duties set out in section 17(5) of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to public benefit. In particular, the Trustees have considered how the planned activities will contribute to the overall aims and objectives that they have set
The Trustees believe that the paragraphs, specifically on the "Objectives and Activities" and "Achievements and Performance" for the year, relate in detail the benefit that the charity provides to the public.
Volunteers
The work of the charity is greatly assisted in the fulfilling of its objects through the work of volunteers. Volunteers are active in all levels of the running of Honeycroft and without their labour and regular input the charity would have been able to make the achievements it has. Honeycroft continues to attract volunteers mainly through word of mouth or access through childcare courses.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Charitable activities
We have had a settled year although recruitment has remained our biggest challenge.
We have suffered loss of business in particular letting/hiring which has still not returned to the level before the pandemic.
Keith Bonner has oversight re the finances and liaises with appointed accountant Dan Payne and the Centre Manager.
We have successfully changed our new invoicing system to complement the accounting system in place.
We are looking to create a new staff role to an existing member of staff by increasing responsibilities and wage.
We approved a new contract for energy price plan as our contract came to end this year.
We are currently looking to bring in a new replacement for Keith's accountant trustee role. Keith will do a handover.
We are now just looking at the new living wage structure.
We have had a successful Christmas event to raise funds
FINANCIAL REVIEW Financial position
The figures from our draft Accounts are;
£165,929 total unrestricted funds and £nil total restricted funds as at 31/03/2023.
This represents a decrease of £14,960 which shows the start of our recovery from the impact of Covid over this financial year. Things began to normalise quite quickly, and we saw increases in our rental income due to one main user renting the space on a weekly basis. Childcare strands continued to increase and return to almost pre pandemic levels, however rapid increases to the National Minimum Wage and the added increase to quarterly rent had an impact on the year and led to our expenditure exceeding income by £14,960. Thankfully the nursery and out of school continue to be popular and working to staffing capacity. Once again, we had sufficient reserves in place to allow us to weather another year, however we are aware of pending increases again to NMW and a steady reduction in our reserves, which will require us to continue to look for ways to increase our revenue and to review the fee scales to ensure that we remain competitive and in line with our objectives as a charity, but also to be more commercial in areas that we can reasonably do so, such as renting out space to third parties.
Reserves policy
It is the policy of the Charity to maintain unrestricted funds, which are the free reserves of the Charity, at a level which provides sufficient funds to cover management, administration and support costs. Our aim is to achieve a level which will enable the charity to achieve its long term objectives.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2023
STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES
The trustees (who are also the directors of Honeycroft 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
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business.
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.
Approved by order of the board of trustees on 29[th] January 2024 and signed on its behalf by:

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:
-
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
-
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)).

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2023
1. 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.
At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, and on that basis the charity is considered to be a going concern.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling which is the functional currency of the entity, and are rounded to the nearest £1.
The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity as defined by FRS102.
Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Donations and Grants
Income from donations, and grants, is included in incoming resources when these are receivable, except as follows:
-
When donors specify that donations and grants given to the Charity are to be treated as funding for future accounting periods, the income is deferred until those periods.
-
When donors impose conditions which have to be fulfilled before the Charity becomes entitled to use such income, the income is deferred and not included in incoming resources until the pre-conditions for use have been met.
When donors specify that donations and grants are for particular restricted purposes, which do not amount to pre-conditions regarding entitlement, this income is included in incoming resources of restricted funds when receivable.
Nursery Fees
Fee income for provision of nursery services is included in incoming resources when the service has been provided, or, if amounts invoiced relate to services both before and after the period end, then in proportion to services provided, with the balance being deferred.
Other Income
Other income is recognised in the period in which the Charity is entitled to the receipt and the amount can be measured with reasonable certainty. Income is deferred only when the Charity has to fulfil conditions before becoming entitled to it, or where the donor has specified that the income is to be treated as the funding of a future period.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Expenditure
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.
Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Improvements to property - 10% on cost - Plant and machinery 25% on reducing balance
The Charity does not capitalise assets costing under £500.
Recognition and measurement
Fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses.
Taxation
The Charity 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. Accordingly the Charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 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.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
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.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.
Operating leases
All leases are treated as operating leases. Their annual rentals are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities on a straight-line basis over the term of the lease.
Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
In the application of the charity's accounting policies, the charity is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying value of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Page 11
HONEYCROFT
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2023
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued
Operating leases
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised, if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both the current and future periods.
There are no estimates and assumptions that are considered to have a significant risk of causing a material adjustments to the financial statements in a future period.
Financial instruments
The charity has only financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and are subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Financial Assets
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 discounts due.
Financial Liabilities
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 discounts due.
