## Trustees’ Report 

The directors are pleased to present their report for the year ended 31 May 2023 together with the financial statements of the charity, which are prepared in order to meet the requirements for a directors’ report and accounts for Companies Act purposes. 

The charity’s object continues to be the introduction and development of the French language and francophone cultures in Cambridge and the surrounding areas and East Anglia. The principal activity of the charity continues to be the establishment of non-profit making language courses in both a formal and an informal basis as well as the promotion of French and francophone cultures. 

## Achievement, Performance and Financial Review 

Despite the challenges experienced by the UK economic, notably the cost of living crisis, and other linked prevailing uncertainty, |’ Alliance Francaise de Cambridge has had a good year. Under the steady, and pragmatic leadership of director Patricia Dalby, the AF team has continued to offer a successful blend of in-person and online teaching borne out of necessity due to by the pandemic and successfully multiplied free taster sessions in order to continue to meet new audiences while working hard to insure aficionados of the AFC remain loyal and continually interested by the work of the organisation, Thanks to regular polling of our members, dynamic advertising online the AF team continues to delivering an attractive language and cultural offer for each type of audience from members aged 7 to 77 years old! 

In 2023, the second year of the cost of living crisis in the UK has made the recruitment and re-enrolment of financially hard-pressed members noticeably harder although the Alliance team has managed to maintain its roll at a viable level and has been able to continue to develop the Norwich branch opened in September 2022. This result is a testimony to the remarkable energy, consistent dedication and creativity of the leadership team and teachers of the AF which is important to recognise in this report. 

The location of the Alliance at Bell School on the Red Cross Lane site near Addenbrookes Hospital continues to be a successful story, one that generates rich pedagogical and cultural exchanges, and more generally a mutually supportive, fruitful and stimulating partnership. 

L’Alliance continues to be the focal point for the French community and all francophiles in the Cambridge area thereby re-affirming their attachment to its educational and cultural mission in Cambridge and East Anglia more widely. A number of Trustees from the Out-Reach Committee from have been working very hard with the AF staff this year to set up and finance the delivery of free French lessons on-line for pupils in schools located in less advantaged areas or where language offer is either lacking or modest. The programme involves a number of Schools in East Anglia who will themselves nominate the pupils who will, in their view, benefit most in the future from the AFC’s offer. The programme of lessons is set to start in early October. This is an exciting project delivering on our commitment as a charity to give back to the community. 

In the face of continued acute disruption of the economy, thankfully cash reserves in the bank at year end remains at a comfortable level, offering long term security to the organisation. 

Our cultural activities continue to meet an increased demand. Online events included screenings, talks on Art, Culture and Literature continue to be extremely popular as is our book club which continues to attract its usual aficionados, while more informal “Meet Ups” for coffee are also very successful and attracting good numbers. 

Our relationship with the Cambridge Chamber of Commerce continues to prosper. We are a regular participant in chamber events and have been able to contribute and benefit from this collaboration. We maintain our strong links with Cambridge Council for Voluntary Service (CCVS) and City Live. Likewise, with the University of Cambridge, which sees us co-organise events to support the

## Trustees' Report 

University’s Festival of Ideas and the Science Festival. One of our Trustees working at the University has opened new paths with our Out-Reach project. We are fortunate to continue to have a wonderful team of dedicated administrative and teaching staff, to whom the directors would like to express their gratitude. Their calibre which had been amply demonstrated in their nimble response to the Covid challenges, continue to prove an extraordinary asset to the AFC during the cost of living crisis through their creative approach to ensure continued attractiveness and success of the AFC offer to its current as well as new members, 

## Reserves Policy 

The Trustees have established a policy whereby the free reserves held by the charity, should be 3 months of the charity's expenditure, which equates to £51,000 at 16 May 2023 (overhead costs £5,000, salaries £46,000). At this level the trustees believe they would be able to continue the operation of the charity for the foreseeable future. The trustees review the policy annually. 

The composition of the Board of Trustees is as follows at the close of this reporting period, September 2023: Pierre Pillet, Chair; Stefan Marciniak, Deputy Chair; James Winters, Secretary; Nick Santcross, Treasurer; Trustees: Cindy Forde, Janet Morris, Neil Carter, Franklin Nelson, Christine Hilcenko.

## Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities 

The trustees (who are also the directors of Alliance Francaise de Cambridge for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the trustees’ report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland". 

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under company law the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they 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 its income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable accounting standards, comprising FRS 102 have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and 

- 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 that can 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. 

The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company's website. Legislation governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. 

Approved by the trustees of the charity on 23 September 2023 and signed on its behalf by: 

Mr Pierre-Xavier Pillet

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 3] May 2023. 

## Responsibilities and basis of report 

As the charity’s trustees of Alliance Francaise de Cambridge (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 Alliance Francaise de Cambridge 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. 

My firm does provide bookkeeping and payroll services to the charity and therefore the Financial Reporting Council's Revised Ethical Standard have been applied to ensure independence. 

## Independent examiner’s statement 

IT have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe: 

- 1, accounting records were not kept in respect of Alliance Francaise de Cambridge as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. 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 

4. 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 Treland (FRS 102)]. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

## Alliance Francaise de Cambridge 

## Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 May 2023 

## Charitable activities 

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them. 

## Support costs 

Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, for example, allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage. 

## Governance costs 

These include the costs attributable to the charity’s compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements, including audit, strategic management and trustees meetings and reimbursed expenses. 

## Irrecoverable VAT 

Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the category of resources expended for which it was incurred. 

## Taxation 

The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the 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 of the 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. 

## Intangible assets 

Intangible assets are stated in the Balance Sheet at cost less accumulated amortisation and impairment. They are amortised on a straight line basis over their estimated useful lives. 

## Tangible fixed assets 

Individual fixed assets costing £125.00 or more are initially recorded at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. 

## Amortisation 

Amortisation is provided on intangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows: 

## Asset class 

Development costs 

Amortisation method and rate 10 yr straight line basis 

## Depreciation and amortisation 

Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows:

## Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 May 2023 

## Research and development 

Development expenditure incurred on an individual project is carried forward when its future recoverability can reasonably be regarded as assured. Any expenditure carried forward is amortised in line with the expected future income from the related project. 

## Trade debtors 

Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business. 

Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the charity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. 

## Cash and cash equivalents 

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. 

## Trade creditors 

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the charity does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities. 

Trade creditors are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

## Fund structure 

Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity. 

## Hire purchase and finance leases 

Leases in which substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership are retained by the lessor are classified as operating leases. Rentals payable under operating leases are charged in the Statement of Financial Activities on a straight line basis over the lease term. 

## Pensions and other post retirement obligations 

The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme which is a pension plan under which fixed contributions are paid into a pension fund and the charity has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions even if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods. 

Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities when they are due. If contribution payments exceed the contribution due for service, the excess is recognised as a prepayment.
