Worthing Community Partnership
Company Limited by Guarantee
Trustees’ Annual Report (Incorporating the Director’s Report)
Year Ended 30 June 2023
Structure, Governance and Management
The charity is constituted as a company limited by guarantee and is therefore governed by a memorandum and articles of association dated 29 June 2001.
The trustees are appointed at the Annual General Meeting and one third retires in rotation and can be re-appointed. The trustees may further appoint trustees to fill vacancies arising between Annual General Meetings. The trustees are recruited dependent on skills required and contribute at Board meetings and at least one other committee or role within the organisation. Trustees are given an induction by the Chair, Treasurer and other trustees and receive on-going formal and informal training at board meetings, away days and through links with other local agencies. Worthing Community Partnership is a small organisation and as such, trustees and all volunteers within the organisation, are more active than would usually be required of a governance role within a larger organisation that has a greater number of paid staff.
Public Benefit
The trustees have referred to the Charity Commissions guidance on public benefit when reviewing the company’s aims and objectives and in planning future activities. As a grant making charity, Worthing Community Chest exists to make partnerships and offer financial grants to enable local groups, projects and events for the public benefit.
Objectives and Activities
The Worthing Community Partnership is known locally as the Worthing Community Chest and is an independent organisation enabling and supporting local community regeneration, projects and events. We operate as far as possible by building partnerships with local voluntary organisations and clubs, businesses, statutory bodies and individuals.
Our Purpose
To tackle social isolation and economic deprivation by:
-
1) Bringing people and organisations together to find solutions to address local issues and opportunities.
-
2) Acting as a conduit for funding to enable running of programmes and specific events and projects.
-
3) Working together with organisations to assist and lead in the delivery of projects and initiatives.
-
4) Supporting small local groups with financial assistance through Worthing Community Chest grants.
Achievements and Future Plans
The main income for the charity is derived from the continuing occupancy of the freehold property, Renaissance House in Rowlands Road, Worthing. This enables the organisation to carry out its charitable functions. Textile recycling income received via Worthing Borough Council is restricted to awarding Worthing Community Chest small grants. We received £1,350 unrestricted funds from Broadwater Carnival, the Textile recycling received via Worthing Borough Council income is incrementally diminishing by the year. The charity will continue to promote recycling locally to help to meet council recycling targets, reduce landfill waste and raise funds for distribution to local groups and events in Worthing. At the tail end of the financial year the directors started exploring other income sources such as Facebook donation, Lottery and endowments. These will hopefully raise additional income in the next financial year (ending June 2024).
A list of organisations who have benefitted from grants awarded in the year is included in note 8 to the financial statements. The charity awarded grants, grass roots funding and seed funding to help organisations cope with the difficult times of approximately £26,174 during the year, helping to enable a wide range of events to take place in Worthing. More detailed achievements and activities of the charity are detailed in the Charity’s Annual Report available from the town hall and upon request.

Trustees’ Annual Report (Incorporating the Director’s Report) (continued)
Year Ended 30 June 2023
Financial Review
The results for the year are set out in the statement of financial activities on Page 8.
There was a total net Shortfall for the year of £7,030 (2022: £11,117 Shortfall). The surplus generated on the unrestricted general fund was £6,364 (2022: £9,455).The slight drop on support costs of £983 compared to the previous year is due to fall in Staff Cost 2023: £25,432 (2022: 26,415). This surplus and net assets enabled the trustees to allocate an additional £13,394 of unrestricted funds to restricted income to award £23,594 in community chest grants, Grass roots and Seed funding of £2,580 and £7,221 shortfall covered by the designated Renaissance House Repair funds, leaving £190 Surplus in the year to be added to unrestricted, undesignated funds as at 30[th] June 2023.
Reserves
In the context of these financial statements, reserves are the funds available to the charity that can be made available to spend for any or all of its purposes, once it has met its commitments and covered its planned expenditure. These comprise restricted reserves to be spent solely on Community Chest Grants and unrestricted funds that may be designated by the trustees for specific purposes to enable the work of the charity to continue and grow and meet its anticipated requirements.
The level of reserves is monitored and reviewed on a bi-monthly basis. The directors consider it prudent that unrestricted reserves should cover 3 months running costs for the charity and major repairs at Renaissance House. Unrestricted funds comprise £313,379 representing the net book value of Renaissance House, designated funds of £15,337 for major repairs (This is now held by letting agent), £7,299 representing three months’ running costs leaving total undesignated funds of £45,036 at 30[th] June 2023. This meets the trustees’ desired level of reserves. It is expected that the unrestricted reserves will be used to award further grants in the coming years as the recycling income reduces.
Restricted Community Chest Grants Fund
Funds received from Worthing Borough Council from textile recycling are held for the sole purpose of awarding community chest small grants to fund local projects and events. Recycling income of £12,780 was received in the year and grants of £26,174 were awarded.
Designated Major Repairs Fund
Funds received from tenants in excess of service charge recharged costs are held for the sole purpose of major repairs and property works rechargeable to tenants under the terms of their leases. The purpose of this fund is to reduce fluctuations in annual service charge costs that would be caused by recharging all major works on Renaissance House in the period they are incurred and to ensure funds are available for planned major works such as lift repairs and external property redecoration. The Major Repairs Fund is now held by the letting agent managing Renaissance House on behalf of the Charity.
Risk Assessment
The directors review financial and other risks when appropriate and have established procedures to ensure that transactions and projects are properly authorised. Ongoing occupancy of Renaissance House is necessary for the ongoing sustainability of the charitable company in its current form. Trustees are looking forward to maintain the lease with our current tenants Western Sussex Health Trust as they were awarded the continuing contract to offer the sexual health services from our property and will continue in tenancy for the next three to five years.

Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities

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 the year.
In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

-
make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charitable company’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and 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.
Small Company Provisions
This report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions applicable to companies entitled to the small companies’ exemption.
The charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible under charity commission requirements for independent examination.

2. Statement of Compliance
These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP: Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland (FRS102)
3. Accounting Policies
Basis of Preparation
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through income or expenditure.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.
Going Concern
There are no material uncertainties about the charity’s ability to continue.
Disclosure Exemptions
The entity satisfies the criteria of being a qualified entity as defined in FRS102. As such, advantage has been taken of the following disclosure exemptions available under paragraph 1.12 of FRS 102:
- a) No cashflow statement has been presented for the company
Judgements and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Fund Accounting
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees to further any of the charity’s purposes.
Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for a particular future project or commitment.
Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure declared by the donor or through the terms of an appeal and fall into one of two subclasses: restricted income funds or endowment funds

3 Accounting Policies (continued)
Incoming Resources
All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when the entitlement has passed to the charity; it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:
-
Income from donations or grants is recognised when there is evidence of entitlement to the gift, receipt is probable and its amount can be measured reliably
-
Legacy income is recognised when receipt is probable and entitlement is established
-
Income from donated goods is measured at the fair value of the goods unless this is impractical to measure reliably, in which case the value is derived from the cost to the donor or the estimated resale value. Donated facilities and services are recognised in the accounts when received if the value can be reliably measured. No amounts are included for the contribution of general volunteers.
-
Income from contracts for the supply of services is recognised with the delivery of the contracted service. This is classified as unrestricted funds unless there is a contractual requirement for it to be spent on a particular purpose and returned if unspent in which case it may be regarded as restricted.
Resources Expended
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability in incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered and is classified under headings in the statement of financial activities to which it relates.
-
Expenditure on raising funds includes the costs of all fundraising activities, events, non-charitable trading activities and the sale of donated goods.
-
Expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs incurred by a charity in undertaking activities that further its charitable aims for the benefit of is beneficiaries, including those support costs and costs relating to the governance of the charity apportioned to charitable activities.
-
Other expenditure includes all expenditure that is neither related to raising funds for the charity nor part of its expenditure on charitable activities.
All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned between the activities they contribute to on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis.
Tangible Assets
Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Any tangible assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.
An increase in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of a revaluation is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, unless it reverses a charge for impairment that has previously been recognised as expenditure within the statement of financial activities. A decrease in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of revaluation is recognised in other recognised gains and losses, except to which it offsets any previous revaluation gain, in which case the loss is shown within other recognised gains and losses on the statement of financial activities.

Depreciation
The charity does not depreciate freehold property as it is expected to retain its value over the period of ownership. Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:
Equipment - 50% straight line Improvements to property - 20% straight line
Impairment of Fixed Assets
A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date.
For the purposes of impairment testing, when it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.
Financial Instruments
A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the charity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the amount receivable or payable including any related transaction costs.
Current assets and current liabilities are subsequently measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received and not discounted.
Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost.
Other financial instruments, including derivatives, are initially recognised at fair value unless payment for an asset is deferred beyond normal business terms or financed at a rate of interest that is not market rate, in which case the asset is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.
Other financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, with any changes recognised in the statement of financial activities, with the exception of hedging instruments in a designated hedging relationship.
Financial assets that are measured at cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective evidence of impairment at the end of each reporting date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an impairment loss is recognised under the appropriate heading in the statement of financial activities in which the initial gains was recognised.

3 Accounting Policies (continued)
For all equity instruments regardless of significance and other financial assets that are individually significant, these are assessed individually for impairment. Other financial assets are either assessed individually or grouped on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics.
Any reversals of impairment are recognised immediately, to the extent that the reversal does not result in a carrying amount of the financial asset that exceeds what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment not previously been recognised.
4. Limited by Guarantee
The company is limited by guarantee and every member of the company undertakes to contribute an amount of £10 to the company’s assets if it should be wound up while they are a member or within one year after they cease to be a member, for the payment of the company’s debts and liabilities contracted before they cease to be a member and of the costs charges and expenses of winding up and for the adjustment of the rights and contributories among themselves.
If the company is wound up, after all its debts and liabilities have been satisfied there remains any property, it shall not be paid to or distributed amongst the members of the company but it shall be given or transferred to some other charity or association having objects similar to the objects of the charitable company.
