Objectives of the charity
To advance public education in the classical teaching of yoga science and to maintain and improve the standards of teaching yoga.
To promote and advance for the public benefit, the study and practice of and the research into, the therapeutic effects of yoga as a means of improving the mental and spiritual health of the community, and to publish the useful results of any research.
In setting our objectives and planning for future activities the Trustees have had regard to the commissioner's general guidance on public benefit.
The Trust has endeavoured to achieve its objectives by the following means:
Policies
The Trust continues to manage itself within the framework of its policies, all of which are reviewed annually. Additions are created when required. The Trust employs three people: Centre Education Manager, Centre Operations Manager and an Administration Assistant.
Staff appraisals have been carried out. Salaries are reviewed annually. The CEM and COM are enrolled in NEST.
Trustees and Volunteers
There were three trustees at the start of the period.
The Trust continues to enjoy the support of volunteers – this has been minimal since the Yoga Centre has continued with semi closures over the year due to Covid. Trustees have been contributing to meetings, developing policies and emotionally supporting staff members.
COVID
As with the 2020 – 21 financial year, the working business has been challenged throughout the year due to the Covid epidemic which effectively minimised class attendance for a large part of the year. Government national and local restrictions continued to apply to all yoga businesses. However, a Government Grant brought about helpful contribution to funds to help the business stay solvent during this time.
All three members of staff were put on full or flexible furlough for part of the year. Businesses were legally bound to pay all salaries up to 80%. Jasmine Trust have paid all salaries at 100%.
All staff were given a 4% pay rise and bonus in appreciation for their service over this difficult time.
The Centre Operations Manager (COM) reinstated the use of Babworth Court which initiated increases in general costs such as heating and lighting. The Centre Education Manager (CEM) opened up face to face classes to encourage in house participation. Zoom classes were minimised to enable the building to come back into use.
Business activity
CEM and Administrative Assistant (AA) have enabled students to access the booking system and kept classes running smoothly throughout the year.
When Covid restrictions were lifted, CEM and one other teacher offered well managed and tightly risk assessed classes to small groups. CEM continued for a short while with ‘hybrid’ classes where Zoom teaching took place within face-to-face classes. This allowed some students to attend Babworth Court whilst others practised in their own home. This was phased out as more students returned to the studio.
Other International tutors made choices as to whether to come back to the Studio (Peter Blackaby) whilst others continued to stay with electronic delivery (John Stirk, Monica Voss). Studio attendances were good, whilst Zoom began to take a back seat and had less attendees.
Specific training courses include:
BWYQ Teacher Training 2019 - 2021 commenced January 2019 and completed January 2022.
CEM continues as Lead IQA for the UK governing body BWY. This has been useful in quality assuring our own courses and class delivery.
The Facilities (including the Court and grounds and the Cottage and small studio.)
The hiring out of the small studio at The Cottage has continued throughout the financial year – the revenue from this has been helpful and more constant than last financial year.
Marketing
This is always an ongoing programme within the Trust. The web site and email contacts continue to bring in custom. Social media coverage is maintained by AA and continues to improve, providing a good advertising portal. There has been no external paper advertising or visits to any other organisation due to the ongoing impact of the pandemic.
Funding
The Period saw contributions of £17,000 from Whitaker Charitable Trust for general use within the Trust.
As this financial year ends, Jasmine Trust is working to maintain classes and events – the view is that Covid is still a threat to health locally and nationally and future plans may well be impacted by the length of time this continues.
Future Plans –
-
Return to a full programme of events and classes steadily to encourage and enable more students from a wider spectrum of attendees to come to the Centre.
-
The following were in place last year, but we were unable to implement them due to Covid restrictions:
-
At an appropriate time, create a paper-based advertising campaign to tie into an Open day we will offer at Babworth Court. We want to expand our classes, when possible, plus take the opportunity to look at broadening our provision.
-
We will also look to offer a ‘Long Covid’ class for those who are impacted and continue to suffer ill health.
-
Create a BWY Foundation Course – this will lead to future teacher training as well as expansion of yoga skills for those who attend.
-
Create a new BWY Teacher Training course from September 2022
-
Develop a programme of seminars, workshops and specialist classes using JT staff's expertise, finding niche teacher training markets that will benefit from such courses.
-
Reconnect to past providers with a view to enticing them back to Jasmine Trust.
Reserves Policy
Reserves are held in the Current, Project Savings and Buy a Brick accounts.
Risk Review
Major risks to which JT may be exposed are reviewed on a regular basis by the Management Committee and systems are in place to mitigate those risks.
The most significant risk will continue to be Covid pandemic. This is risk managed constantly by COM & CEM and in line with government guidelines for Yoga Centres published by Sport England.
The second most significant risk could be related to the safe practice of yoga (a physical activity) and JT's policy of ensuring that all members of staff and visiting tutors are either fully qualified or on a recognised training programme is an added safeguard. The safeguard is that once qualified or on a recognised training programme, they are fully and adequately insured.
Results
The net loss generated by the ongoing, ordinary activities of the Trust for this financial year totaled £373.
Income generated from general activities make up around 70% of the income generated in 2021 – 22. Our earning capacity is reduced due to larger events not yet being offered by JT during this current time and the ending of a teacher training programme without the commencement of another at this time. The Trust net resources are expanded by donations from Whitaker Charitable Trust of £17000 and one final government Corona grant and use of the furlough scheme.
Expenditure includes a major rise in Salary costs for the year – attributed to the first pay rise in 3 years, a bonus for all staff and bringing all staff salaries up to 100%, completed in March 21, the last month of the national financial year. The Furlough payment scheme closed in November 2021 returning all salary costs to the company.
The total funds generated for the year were attributed to general reserves which now stand at £37558
Company Law requires the Management Committee to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of the affairs of the charitable company as at the balance sheet date and of its incoming resources for the financial year. In preparing those statements, the Directors should follow best practice and:
-
Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently.
-
Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent.
-
Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to assume that the company will continue on this basis.
The Directors are responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time, the final position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Company's Act 2006. The Directors 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.
Members of the charitable company
The Directors of the company for the purpose of company law are Trustees for the purpose of charity law, and those who served during the year and up to the date of this report set out on page one.
Members of the charitable company guarantee to contribute an amount not exceeding £10 to the assets of the charitable company in the event of winding The total number of such guarantees at February 2022 was 3.
The Trustees wish to acknowledge the hard work and great effort put in by the CEM, the COM and the AA over another period in the exceptional circumstances prevailing due to Covid. This has enabled the centre to be as viable as possible under extremely challenging times, continuing to meet its objectives wherever possible.
This report has been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice Accounting and Reporting by Charities, and in accordance with the small companies exemptions provided in section 415A of the Company's Act 2006.
