THE SALTO FOUNDATION LIMITED
CHAIRMAN'S REPORT
for the Year Ended 31 DECEMBER 2020
Firstly, it is a pleasure to be able to confirm that SALTO has come through the worst of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and subject to the HM Government Road Map, SALTO restarted activities on 19 April 2021, albeit under COVID-19 Safe restrictions. This is in no small part as the direct generous support from the majority of our members, that could afford to maintain their minimum £10 donations, during the various imposed lockdown periods and for this we extend our warmest gratitude.
SALTO Reorganisation
On 28 October 2020, the SALTO Gymnastics Club membership, overwhelmingly endorsed the Board of Trustees' recommendation, that the charity, known as SALTO Gymnastics Club, be dissolved and its assets, liabilities and activities be transferred to The SALTO Foundation Limited, in accordance with the provisions of SALTO Gymnastics Club's charity constitution. The main reasons for the change being, to simplify the organisation structure and realise long term cost efficiencies made more important as we responded to the financial impact of the COVID-19 virus global pandemic. Following further detailed legal and financial advice the Charity Commission, made an order on 22 December 2020, pursuant to Section 105 of the Charities Act 2011. On 24 December 2020 the SALTO Gymnastics Club Board executed the approved the Transfer Agreement, and SALTO Gymnastics Club, as a charity, was dissolved on 31 December 2020.
COVID-19 Timeline
The main sequence of events affecting SALTO in 2020 have been:

----- End of picture text -----
A special note of thanks must go to Amanda Dando, General Manager. For she and her team have worked tirelessly throughout ever changing and challenging times during the year to maintain contact and engagement with members, their families, and the coaching staff to create and deliver a range of new services and communications. We know from the kind feedback that these efforts have been appreciated.
I am proud to report that collective strength of our management team, staff, and club members has ensured that SALTO not only survived the ravages of COVID-19, but we are also positioned well to reopen. SALTO is a not-for-profit organisation that relies on subscription income, grants and sponsorship.
The function of The SALTO Foundation has been to:
-
Act as custodian of the SALTO Centre and during 2020, the Board has invested significant sums and made major changes to the SALTO Centre to make it COVID-19 Secure. As we started the year, we fully expected to continue our long-standing commercial mortgage debt reduction strategy. In response to the anticipated negative impact of COVID-19-on SALTO revenue, the Board requested two capital repayment holidays on its Commercial Mortgage. We also managed to secure reductions in some contract payment obligations or temporary suspension of services during lockdowns.
-
- Be the holding company for SALTO Leisure Limited, its trading company subsidiary. We planned to continue the reduction of the intra-company indebtedness between SALTO Leisure Limited and its parent. The Board decided to reduce the rental charged by SALTO Leisure Limited to SALTO Gymnastics Club and in tum reduce SALTO Leisure Limited's ability to reduce its indebtedness to its parent. Full details in the report that follows.

CHAIRMAN'S REPORT
for the Year Ended 31 DECEMBER 2020
The SALTO Gymnastics Club Board initially decided to borrow £100,000 under the HM Government backed Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme (CBILS). Later, in anticipation of the transfer of liabilities from SALTO Gymnastics Club to The SALTO Foundation Limited, it was decided to refinance the original CBILS facility with a new CBILS facility taken by The SALTO Foundation Limited. Following the merger, The SALTO Foundation Limited will continue to deliver all the activities ofSALTO Gymnastics Club. All the measures taken and detailed in this report have enabled the The SALTO Foundation Board to ensure 2021 activities will commence in a secure financial position. The financial reports look very different this year, as we must prepare this report in compliance with the provisions of the principles related to merged organisations. So even though the merger of the SALTO Gymnastics Club Charity with The SALTO Foundation Limited Charity was completed as at 31 December 2020, the reports must show the combined figures, as if they had been merged for all of 2020. This also involved restating the 2019 comparable figures and the detailed remarks in the Trustee Annual Report will also assist the reader assess the impact of COVID-19 on the Charity's financial position and its future plans. (Please see notes 27 and 28) : The report will show in detail the devastating impact that COVID-19 has had on our finances and our activities. It can be seen that we experienced a reduction of almost 50% fin income our Primary Purpose Trading income (which is predominantly member subscription income). This reduction was partly off-set by making sure SALTO received all the Government Business Support Grants it was entitled to, as well as securing a record level of other Grant funding that helped to cover not only some of our core costs essential to keep SALTO ticking over, but also to finance some major investments in the SALTO Centre to enhance lighting and ventilation to make the building even more COVID-19 secure than before the latest lockdown.
At Board level, Mrs Pauline Young has agreed to join the Board of Trustees. Pauline was a SALTO Gymnastics Club trustee prior to its dissolution. I am also pleased to report that Ms Louise Hanley and Ms Laura Baird will be joining our Board and bring considerable new expertise needed to face the new challenges. All three will be formally appointed and relevant documents submitted as soon as the practicalities of the transfer from SALTO Gymnastics Club to The SALTO Foundation Limited have been concluded. SALTO faces a second incredibly uncertain year and has done everything possible to mitigate the huge financial impact of the COVID-19 virus. The long-term impacts in respect of sustainability are somewhat more difficult to quantify, but I am confident that SALTO will continue to ASPIRE, to INSPIRE, to DELIVER and to SUCCEED.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the Year Ended 31 DECEMBER 2020
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 31 December 2020. 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).
The Board of Trustees have assessed the Charity on a going concern basis, prior to the merger and subsequently. The impact of COVID 19 has seen a major disruption to our activities. In 2021, there will be continued additional costs associated with maintenance and hygiene arrangements associated with H&S COVID-19 Secure measures. Furthermore, our income will be significantly constrained in 2021 as the HM Government Road Map out of COVID-19 Social Distancing Restrictions is only expected to liberalise the country, no earlier than 21 June 2021. At the date of approval of the accounts, it is too early to state with certainty what the further impact of COVID 19 will have on the 2021 financial performance. Some of the measures taken in 2020 and 2021 are detailed in this report.
The Charity and its property are managed and administered in accordance with its Memorandum and Articles of Association, by its Board of Trustees/Directors.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and activities
The objects of the Charity, in common with SALTO Gymnastics Club, shall be:-
-

-

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
for the Year Ended 31 DECEMBER 2020
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Public benefit
The trustees confirm that they have referred to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit, including the guidance 'public benefit: running a charity’ (PB2), when reviewing The SALTO Foundation Limited's aims and objectives, as well as in planning future activities. We strive to improve the health, wellbeing and future prospects of the "Inhabitants", by becoming one of the leading providers and promotors of gymnastics and other activities, in our "Area of "Benefit", from the use of the SALTO Centre by SALTO Gymnastics Club and SALTO Leisure Limited. The difference made by The SALTO Foundation Limited arises from the use of the SALTO Centre by SALTO Gymnastics Club and SALTO Leisure Limited.
Following the merger of the SALTO Charities, The SALTO Foundation Limited shall receive the income directly from the continued activities of SALTO Gymnastics Club such as member subscriptions and fees. The affordability and access to SALTO Gymnastics Club programmes is important to us and is reflected in the pricing policy. This pricing policy reflects the strategy of enabling as many “Inhabitants” as possible within our "Area of Benefit", to take part in activities, to attend or participate in events, by making these as affordable as possible, having due regard to the general levels of deprivation in the "Area of Benefit" and pricing of similar sporting or leisure activities available locally. The pricing policy and other careful financial management by the Trustees ensures that it generates a modest surplus.
The strategies employed to achieve The SALTO Foundation Limited Charity's aims and objects are:
-
enable SALTO Gymnastics Club to present a broad range of activities and gymnastics classes for all age groups in as many disciplines as possible, subject to availability of qualified coaches.
-
- enable SALTO Gymnastics Club to develop innovative programmes, such as, classes for "Home Educated” children.
-
- enable SALTO Gymnastics Club to develop "Partner" programmes with local schools, groups working with children with specific educational needs.
-
provide facilities for community amateur sports groups to run classes at the SALTO Centre at discounted rates for hire of space.
-
create opportunities for volunteering, developing coaching skills and employment
-
- create an open, welcoming, safe environment to bring families together whilst they watch their children participate in their classes fostering a sense of community cohesion.
-
- create a state-of-the-art training facility, to inspire the gymnasts to reach their full potential and motivate others to become members too.
SALTO is aware that it must demonstrate the difference made through the achievement of our aims and objectives through the delivery of our inputs, activities, outputs, outcomes and impacts. Our first Impact Assessment Report was published in 2020. Our aspiration is that this will be produced on an annual basis in future. Although SALTO monitors ‘performance against Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), set within annual operating plans, these results have not been expressed in societal terms. This is still an area for improvement in our performance but there are challenges and measurement problems associated with some of our activities. Subject to GDPR compliance, we also aim to share data with "Partner" organisations to improve the quality of our reporting
SALTO operates in Sundon Park, one of the most deprived areas in Luton, as evidenced by ONS IMD statistics.
-
Luton is 70th of 317 ofEngland's most deprived areas.
-
- 4Local Super Output Areas (LSOA's) in the top 10% most deprived areas in England. - 29 LSOA's are in the top 10-20% most deprived areas, including, Sundon Park. - Only 4 LSOA's have improved their overall IMD raking 2015-2019

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities In the year under review, the SALTO centre was closed for 8 months of the year, first closure in March 2020 and barely reopening again in September before the November closure. The December closure only ended on 19 April 2021 as part of the Government Road Map.
Children and Young People:
SALTO'S membership is drawn from every ward in Luton and reflects Luton's superdiverse, plural, ethnic population. 95% live in Luton the remainder in nearby rural villages and towns. 40% white : 40% BAME : 20% Other, including mixed race origin,
SALTO started 2020 with great optimism and looking forward to delivering its core gymnastics training and other activities seven days a week to over 1000 children and young people aged 0 to 18 years, 95% girls. We provide structured Gymnastics Classes to 3 years upwards from Pre-School, Tumbling, General & Recreational Gymnastics, Men's & Women's Artistic Gymnastics, Acrobatic Gymnastics and Trampoline
Fewer children had the opportunity to participate in extra activities from their normal gym class after March. We were only able to deliver a fraction of the planned normal schedule of events during the few short weeks when we could open. These events included gym camps, 1-2-1 lessons, and a few badge clinics.
Our three, weekly PlayGym drop-in sessions that have grown in popularity and attended by almost 6000 in 2019 had to be suspended and then reopened in a very restricted, COVID-19 Secure, pre-booked basis until the latest closure.
Sadly, during the year under review, the inevitable consequences of the protracted lockdowns has resulted in a reduction in registered members of just over 1000 Pre-COVID-19 to about 650 for the end of 2020 and nowa little over 500. Approximately 50% reduction. This is of course reflected in the financials but most importantly in the lives of those children and young people. As conditions and capacity permits, we shall aim to try to attract these former members back to SALTO.
Gymnastics is a competitive sport and SALTO works to provide gymnasts with the opportunity to compete with their peers in many disciplines. Previously we would have reported on all the fantastic achievements and activities of those attending SALTO and its events, but these were all suspended under COVID-19 rules. Indeed, it is unclear when these will resume but the HM Government Roadmap may provide a little hope that the latter part of 2021 will see a gradual resumption of such activities.
We are a fully inclusive club. Members are attracted by SALTO's reputation, siblings of members, attendance at events as well as our online presence, which has been vital throughout lockdown. This is a summary of the engagement from March to December in and out of lockdown and changing tier systems.
-
March -July - closed we sent a variety of Fitness Plans weekly to our Pre-School / Recreation Gymnasts that were provided by British Gymnastics (BG) from the Gymfit Program, along with BG issued wordsearches and colouring sheets.
-
- We hada private Club Facebook Group -Approved videos were uploaded along with home workout pictures provided by parents. We had a fairly good engagement with this Group. Coaches also pre-recorded fitness for children to copy at home. In general, the Group was lively and participation was good.
-
- We made a phenomenal start to 2020, classes were full, our numbers were over 1000 Gymnasts in structured classes, Play Gym, drop-in was booming, and we had concerns over numbers attending, prompting us to think of scheduling extra sessions
-
- We sent out Fitness Plans via email weekly and posted session plans to Squads. Communication was maintained with Parents, providing regular updates on any guidance issued. When Flexible Furlough was introduced, this allowed us to offer an Outdoor Fitness Program from late July, for five weeks. We delivered to over 300 children per week, limited by BG guidance; 1 coach to five gymnasts, a maximum of 20 children in any session, delivering fitness for 45 minutes. It was a huge success.
-
- We re-opened indoors September 2020 and made it to the end of October before November a new lockdown closed us again. In November, we ventured into the world of "Zoom" and launched a program which ran Monday to Friday every week, delivering to an average of 985 children each week for the four weeks.

-
We re-opened (again) early December, but with infection rates rising, closed Saturday 19th December and shortly after we were once again closed by Government Guidance. This closure continued until 19 April 2021.
Facilities and Infrastructure: During 2020 the focus has been to ensure the SALTO Centre is as safe and ready to receive staff, gymnasts and visitors whenever permitted to do so. Actions taken include: - Deep Cleaning of the facility including "fogging" disinfectant" of all public areas. - Easy Clean covers fitted to all major apparatus. - New access and one way movement systems introduced for ingress and egress. - New social distancing directional signage. - Social distancing measures introduced to spectator areas - reducing capacity. - 6 new heat exchange ventilation units ordered in 2020 and installed in February 2021. - 4 new rooflight windows and remote controlled ventilation ordered in 2020 and installed in March 2021 - New energy efficient lighting system installed in December 2020 - New hot water system installed in November 2020. - New cleaning regime devised with each coach having their own personal cleaning caddy for use before, during and after sessions. - The migration of member records to our new Club Membership database has proven to be invaluable as this has simplified communications to members during lockdowns and simplified payment administration. - SALTO achieved another creditable compliance rating of 96% in 2020 in its independent Health and Safety Annual Audit (which included COVID-19 measures) and had no reportable accidents during the year and we received no serious complaints. These results reflect the Board's commitment to the robust Health and Safety Management System policies and procedures that are part of the daily fabric of how we deliver activities within the SALTO Centre. This never more important as had to adapt to Government social distancing guidelines to protect the health and wellbeing of all staff, members, and visitors.
Workforce
We have trained all staff on new and safe methods of delivering Gymnastics Outdoors and Indoors. We have a robust Health and Safety Management System and Hygiene regime to mitigate risk of transmission.
The pandemic hit swiftly and suddenly we were closed by the Government Friday 20th March 2020. We furloughed all our staff, apart from our General Manager, and did our best to provide a digital program for everyone. The coaching team have been amazing under very difficult circumstances throughout most of 2020. We have all been out of our comfort zone on many occasions but remain committed to delivering gymnastics for all ages and abilities as best we can under the circumstances.
All workforce development and coach education courses were suspended during 2020 and is now only showing the green shoots of a slow resumption, if the current progress on the HM Government Roadmap continues. Those staff that were undergoing formal training from BG will be called back first before new courses are opened-up. There has been a shift to on-line and distance learning as part of the new Coach Education program. The SALTO Centre is an accredited training facility and hosted 8 BG coach development courses and master classes. We continue to recruit from the local community and train the coaching and administrative staff to maintain the high standard of coaching expected from SALTO.
We provide a Workplace Pension scheme for qualifying Management and Staff but open to all, evidencing our commitment to invest in our staff. Average monthly headcount was 39 in 2020 ( 39 in 2019). This underlines our ability, with the support of the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme, to keeping all our staff even, if Furloughed for much of the year, in readiness for reopening. Coming out of lockdown may present some challenges to retain some staff who may now have advanced to further or higher education or other fulltime work, a year on.
We will invest in management skills training courses and seminars to continue our Management team's continued professional development, as opportunities arise.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
for the Year Ended 31 DECEMBER 2020
Volunteers
SALTO relies on voluntary help to support its Management Team, Coaching and Administrative Staff. Volunteers assist with stewarding events and performances, banking arrangements, stock control. SALTO does not attribute a financial equivalent to the value of our volunteers’ contribution to the Charity however it is nevertheless of greater worth than the mere saving in paid staff costs. Most volunteers have long standing associations with SALTO or are members of the cohort of Young Leaders at the start of their coaching. Whilst the opportunities were fewer during 2020, we are looking forward to welcoming them back in 2021 and recruiting more.
Community Engagement
SALTO faced a major challenge to maintain contact and therefore interest from its members and their families. On the few occasions we could reopen during 2020, even under the strictest COVID-19 Secure measures, , we were encouraged that those we could accommodate, did return and this gives us the confidence that this will be repeated in 2021, as Social Distancing rules are relaxed.
During the year, we embraced new technologies.
Initially, as mentioned we had a private Club Facebook Group "closed" pilot sessions. Then later, investing in more professional "Zoom" software, to develop a range of fitness sessions for all ages from Pre-school to Squad Gymnasts. Initially a few sessions a week and increasing to daily, including a Saturday morning.
In 2021, we became increasingly aware that gymnast and staff wellbeing was an issue to try to address. We therefore held several simply fun sessions. From "Storytime with Viv" to healthy nutrition master classes to make Smoothies. There were Coffee and Cake and Pizza creation sessions too. Hot Chocolate, Ballet, Quiz's, Dance, Mindfulness Week, Meditation and Teddy Bear’s Picnic to name but a few.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial review 2 The Board of Trustees / Directors are pleased to present a satisfactory financial performance during the year to 31 December 2020, notwithstanding all financial challenges presented by COVID-19. As mentioned at the outset, we must present the financial reports by employing Merger Accounting rules to reflect the merger of the SALTO Gymnastics Club with The SALTO Foundation Limited, as if they had been one organisation, since the beginning of 2020. Furthermore, we have restated the 2019 data, so there are comparable figures, to aid interpretation and understanding. The Statement of Financial Activities, Balance Sheet and where applicable the Notes will show the Financial Data for Salto Gymnastics Club and The SALTO Foundation Limited separately and then the combined figures for the merged organisation. (Please see notes 27 and 28)
It must be noted COVID-19 it has had a massive negative impact upon these two charities in 2020 both in terms of delivery and upon its finances. The remarks below will mainly reference the merged entity totals but will, for clarity, reference the separate Charity, in detail to the matter being reported upon.
Financial Highlights
Overall,
-
1) We must acknowledge that despite our best efforts and for the reasons set out below, merged financial position will show a net Deficit for the year of (£39k). This was funded in part by a £100k, CBILS facility arranged by the Trustees to ensure liquidity throughout 2020.
-
2) As pledged in 2019, The SALTO Board had the SALTO Centre revalued and the resulting increase to the current fair value. The revaluation reserve has been increased by £250k. Although this substantially increases the Unrestricted Reserves in the Balance Sheet, this is not included in the definition and calculation of "free reserves", as set out in Charity’s Reserves Policy, approved March 2021. The balance sheet reflects a very positive impact of the valuation of the SALTO Centre, our main asset, further strengthening the overall financial position for the future.
-
3) The Total Funds of the merged organisation stands at £1,303,978 in 2020 (£1,093,246) demonstrating our ability to weather the short term financial shock brought about by COVID-19.
Income
-
1) After the initial lockdown, Member donations were maintained throughout 2020, despite little prospect of SALTO being able to deliver any normal services and activities. We adapted and delivered virtual sessions and later outdoor activities, to maintain a level of engagement with the children and young people. In 2020 members subscription income fell to £214k in 2020. (£406k in 2019). This represents an almost 50% reduction in normal income compared to what was, arguably a record year in 2019.
-
2) We were able to claim £11.7k of GiftAid on eligible member payments on 2020 payments (£10k in 2019). The SALTO Foundation Limited has been recognised by HMRC Charities for Gift Aid purposes for 2021.
-
3) At the outset of the lockdown, we had no idea of the nature, scope or likely future financial contribution of various HM Government Schemes. SALTO received all the grants and support it was eligible to, SALTO borrowed £100,000 under the CBILS arrangements. This loan is repayable over 60 months with interest for the first 12 months covered by HM Government. The loan taken to secure liquidity without knowing the extent of the other government support that followed during 2020 and continues into 2021 nor how fantastic the support has been from the membership. It is important to note that contributions from Government Schemes, excluding the CBILS facility, mounted to £83K in 2020 (N/A 2019), without which SALTO's financial position would be in a perilous state today.

THE SALTO FOUNDATION LIMITED
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the Year Ended 31 DECEMBER 2020
-
4) SALTO was very successful in its fundraising efforts during 2020. Initially we secured a pledge of £10k from the Garfield Weston Foundation, provided we could secure a further £10k in funding from third party organisations. This was initially to support ambitious plans to mark SALTO Gymnastics Club's 25th Anniversary Year as a Charity. We successfully secured two grants of £5k each, before the advent of COVID-19. Then fundraising efforts initially focussed on securing support for key core costs. We secured Emergency COVID-19 response grants amounting to £15k. Later in the year, we secured grants and pledges amounting to £55k (£5k drawn in 2020. £50k Sport England grant was partially claimed in 2020 but most has been claimed in 2021). This funding was restricted to fund investment in a new Air, Heat and Light designed to improve ventilation in response to COVID-19 by reducing airborne transmission risks (the ahead of the current government “Hands, Face, Space and Fresh Air" Mantra. and to improve long term sustainability by introducing low energy LED lighting to the main hall. We also launched our first Crowd Funder appeal but the proceeds of this were not received until February 2021 and this included 2 new Corporate Sponsorship contributions.
-
5) Non-core activities and other trading was suspended from March 2020 and so it is evident that the total contribution from these activities was 25% of that achieved in 2019.
Whilst all the above measures managed to stem the lost revenue resulting in an overall 25% reduction to £438k (£580k in 2019) the real reduction would have been 40% had we not received the HM Government support available.
The Board also focused its attention upon SALTO's expenditure. The strategy being to eliminate or reduce all costs where possible and working with suppliers and creditors to achieve this in a mutually satisfactory fashion. An overall saving of £96k was achieved reducing costs to £477k in 2020 (£573k in 2019). This represents savings achieved of approximately 16%-17% during the year which goes some way to offset the 25% fall in income but still resulted in the small overall deficit.
Expenditure
-
1) The major reduction in SALTO expenditure was the two Capital Repayment Holidays (CRH) negotiated and agreed with Barclays Bank plc. As a result, SALTO did not reduce the outstanding balance of its commercial mortgage as much as would have been the case. However, the effect made a significant positive contribution to Cashflow throughout 2020 and into 2021. The current CRH is due to end in May 2021 and repayments will restart at £6k per month (£5.2k at before the CRH).
-
2) SALTO secured Rental Payment holidays of different durations and amounts on each of its Asset Finance Agreements. Again, extending the term of these agreements or adjusting future payments had a positive contribution to cashflow during 2020. These savings are mainly reflected in The SALTO Foundation Limited's subsidiary, SALTO Leisure Limited.
-
3) Non-essential supplier contracts were cancelled, suspended of scope of supply was reduced. These arrangements all contributed to savings in costs. This is reflected in most expenditure line-item costs compared with 2019.
-
4) SALTO did however see unplanned additional costs associated with Health & Safety measures to make the SALTO Centre COVID-19 Secure and facilitate the few short lived reponing of the SALTO Centre as well as being prepared for the relaxation of control measures under the current HM Government Road Map. Some will remain as ongoing costs associated with Hygiene rated consumables, some will be non-recurring costs associated with signage, fixtures and fittings, crowd-control queueing systems. Some of these costs were covered by one-off emergency restricted grants mentioned. This is reflected in an increase in Repair and Renewal costs to £17.4k (12k in 2019)
-
5) The Air, heat and Light Project was initiated in December 2020, and certain costs incurred were covered by restricted grants.

6) It is also noteworthy that although SALTO received a welcome £74k in Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme Grants the was an additional £4k of payroll processing costs, excluding internal management time administering this scheme. That said, we are proud to have not made any member of staff redundant during 2020.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the Year Ended 31 DECEMBER 2020
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Sources of income SALTO's income is generated from the following sources
Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme Membership Subscriptions (minimum nominal £10 Trading Activity (Suspended pending reopening) donation during lockdown) Membership Fees (Suspended pending reopening) External Hire (Suspended pending reopening) GiftAid (Claims made for 2020) Sponsorship (Suspended pending reopening) Non Gymnastics Core Activities(Suspended pending Donations/Grants/Bursaries/Crowdfunding reopening)
Fund Raising Events (emergency grants and new appeals to be launched before reopening)
Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme Facility (Not strictly income but a source of liquidity) A £100,000 HM Government backed facility has been approved and drawdown. This is the main source of liquidity to cover SALTO's short-term needs during the COVID-19 disruption to normal operations.
Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme Grant(s) This is a HM Government scheme has been invaluable during 2020 and has ensured SALTO has not made any member of staff redundant and using the furloughed scheme to retain valued members of SALTO staff. The benefit of scheme is tapering off and will cease on 30 September 2021.
Prior to COVID-19, generally predictable within a reasonable tolerance. Variable based upon the subscription fee rate and the number of participants/members. Previously this represented the largest contribution to the charity's Primary Trading Income. This income is regular, paid monthly and the majority is via pre-authorised card payments collected via our membership system and designated payment service provider. The cost of subscription fees were last changed in April 2019. During the 3 lockdowns, the vast majority of members, able to do so, have donated a minimum of £10 per member per month which has been invaluable financial support.
Membership Fees
Generally predicable within a reasonable tolerance. Variable based upon the actual membership fee rate and the number of participants/members. This is an annual fee. It is collected when members start their membership and annually thereafter in October.
GiftAid HMRC has granted a concession to SALTO to enable GiftAid claims on eligible member payments for which we hold valid gift aid declaration received in the previous financial year. We have a budget for a minimum £10,000 contribution for 2021. Following the merger of SALTO Gymnastics Club and The SALTO Foundation Limited, the latter has been recognised for by HMRC Gift Aid purposes.
Neate ‘cet ae
We look to develop innovative ways to offer activities that promote health and wellbeing to members and non-members taking advantage of time when the SALTO Centre is not fully occupied by our core-activities. Normally, this not only contributes to our charitable objects but also provides a strong and reliable source of revenue. (suspended pending reopening)
Trading Activity A long track record has enabled the Club to make reasonable projections, but this is variable. Although this makes a valuable contribution this represents approximately 10% of annual income. This income is ongoing and contributes on a weekly basis. SALTO has been introducing a range of its own merchandise on a trial basis and this is making a positive modest additional contribution.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
External Hire
A long track record has enabled the Club to make reasonable projections, but this is variable. There are different forms of external hire from Parties, Competitions and Events, Community Club hire and Coach Education Courses. This source of income makes an increasing valuable contribution and now represents approximately 10 % of annual income. (suspended pending reopening). External hire, with the exception of Parties is now charged through SALTO Leisure Limited. SALTO now also pays SALTO Leisure Limited to hire the SALTO Centre. The hall hire cost is broadly similar and referenced to commercial business rental costs in the area for similar commercial premises. These payments continue to cover the liquidity needs of SALTO Leisure Limited
Donations/Grants/Bursaries/Fund Raising Events/Crowdfunding Appeal
This is entirely linked to the volume and success of such activities. These are generally linked to a project or planned expense and the funds raised are either Restricted Reserves or Designated Reserves. There are long lead times between applications and any funding received with the exception of specific events. This is not predicable. Increasingly applications are being made for support for core costs.
SALTO secured several COVID-19 emergency grants and two COVID-19 restricted grants for a lighting and ventilation project in 2020.
SALTO launched a project related Crowdfunding campaign at the end of 2020 but closed in February 2021. This raised £7581, which will feature in the 2021 financial report. We will launch another campaign later in 2021 to try to build on the success of the initial campaign.
Sponsorship
Sponsorship is new to SALTO and not yet a predicable or making a meaningful contribution to the income mix. This said, two new sponsors came forward, as part of our crowdfunding campaign.
Intra Company Loan Repayments
SALTO Leisure Limited acts on behalf of The SALTO Foundation Limited has resulted in hall hire revenue being generated by charging SALTO Gymnastics Club for the use of the SALTO Centre and all its facilities and support services. This revenue is used to make ad-hoc repayments of the intra~company loans made by The SALTO Foundation Limited to SALTO Leisure Limited providing The SALTO Foundation Limited can also meet its obligations as the fall due. These arrangements are subject to review as a result of the merger of SALTO Gymnastics Club with The SALTO Foundation Limited. (See Note 22 to the Financial Statements.)

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Investment powers and policy The combined value of Charity's restricted and/or unrestricted reserves does not warrant establishing a detailed investment policy. The Trustees, having regard to the liquidity requirements of operating SALTO, have kept available funds in an interest-bearing deposit account and seek to achieve the best available rate of interest, commensurate with the amount invested and ease of access required.
Reserves policy and going concern
The Charities Commission guidelines state that it expects trustees to decide, publish, implement, and monitor their charity's reserves policy (the Policy) so that they can comply with their legal duties to:
- act in the interests of their charity and its beneficiaries. - protect and safeguard the assets of their charity. - act with reasonable care and skill. - ensure their charity is accountable.
The occurrence of a global pandemic in the form of COVID-19 or similar long lasting catastrophic event was not considered in any risk assessment or planning. At the end of February 2020, unrestricted reserves were approximately £20,000. This Policy has been revised in light of this experience. In March 2020, SALTO was forced to close. This policy document sets out:
- a medium term plan for the restoration of reserves, - the basis for the establishment of the level of reserves, - the purpose and approved use of such reserves.
The Trustees are responsible for establishing this policy and to regularly monitor and review its effectiveness in the light of the changing funding and financial climate and other risks. Reserves are essential to ensure all spending commitments and potential liabilities can be fulfilled and assists with the mitigation of the impact of unplanned events on the Charity, its members, staff and volunteers.
This policy is reviewed, at least annually in line with the financial accounts review. The most recent review and approval was at the Trustees’ meeting on 23 March 2021. It has been at the heart of most fiscal decision making during 2020 and will remain in sharp focus throughout 2021. Our aim is to maintain our reserves to ensure our financial resilience and sustainability, including protecting ourselves against new, unexpected, shocks to SALTO activities that are not insurable risks.
The Policy sets out new aspirational target reserves levels and the key principles by which we manage surpluses or deficits compared with the targets. Our aim is to strike the appropriate balance between ensuring a sustainable financial position and using our funds to fulfil our charitable objects.
Types of Reserve
Restricted funds fall outside the definition of unrestricted reserves. In SALTO's case, it may during the normal course of its fund-raising activities, receive the proceeds of donations or grants, which may be received with conditions attached regarding their use. Such funds will be held in a separate designated account and such funds shall be employed in strict accordance with the conditions attached and/or the purpose stated in the application for such funds. As such, these funds are not included in the calculation of the Unrestricted Reserves considered prudent for the day-to-day operation of the club.
Designated Reserves:
SALTO may decide to accumulate reserves in anticipation of a future project or material expense. These are detailed in the table below. As such it may set aside funds from its normal income and/or general fund-raising activities with a view to utilizing such reserves at the appropriate time to facilitate the project or meet the liability of the planned expense. The Trustees may, at their discretion, re-designate the application of such funds to meet a new priority, provided such is in furtherance of its charitable objects.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Unrestricted Reserves Sometimes referred to as "free reserves":
The Charity may decide to accumulate general reserves to ensure that the Charity may fulfil its normal day to day activities, contractual commitments, and operating expenses to mitigate the risk, however small, of an adverse change to anticipated future revenues or adverse impact of an unplanned or significantly larger expense than that which was included in the budget. As such, it may set aside funds from its normal income and/or general fund-raising activities with a view to utilising such reserves at the appropriate time to avoid the need to cease delivery of scheduled activities in furtherance of its charitable objects. Unrestricted reserves are funds that are not specifically defined as Restricted Reserves but may include Designated Reserves.
These unrestricted reserves must be freely available to spend on any of the Charity's purposes. The starting point for calculating the amount of unrestricted funds held by a charity. However, just as in SALTO's case, some, or all, of the unrestricted funds may not be immediately available for spending. This is because spending those funds may adversely impact on the Charity's ability to deliver its aims, or they are not easily convertible to cash or illiquid.
Such items must be excluded from the calculation of unrestricted reserves, include:
-
Tangible Fixed Assets used to carry on the Charities activities, such as land and buildings. In The SALTO Foundation Limited's balance sheet, its reports the current Valuation of the SALTO Centre as £1,500,000 with a Commercial Mortgage outstanding of £446,901. The net fixed asset value, £1,053,098 is excluded from the calculation of free reserves as this equity is not easily realized into cash.
-
Programme- related investments those held solely to further the Charity's purposes.
-
- Designated Funds set aside to meet essential future spending, such as funding a project that could not be met from future income
-
Commitments that have not been provided for as a liability in the accounts.
Level of Unrestricted Reserves The Board has set targets for unrestricted reserves in this Policy, in accordance with Charity Commission guidelines (currently set out in CC-19), noting that reserves are needed to bridge the gap between the spending and receiving of income and to cover unplanned emergency repairs and other expenditure. The board has designated and established targets for Contingency, Financial Management and Strategic Reserves.
The Board shall always act with reasonable care and skill, using information and advice, as it deems appropriate, to set an annual budget, with a view to funding the delivery of scheduled activities and future development goals, in furtherance of its charitable objects. Such budget is set with due regard to prevailing operating income and expenditure, as well as prudent forecasting, based upon known intemal and external factors. The budget also aims to create a modest surplus to contribute to an increase to the balance of unrestricted reserves towards the stated targets.
The Trustees considers the ideal medium target level of reserves is £50,000 by 2022. Although it will take some time for activities to reach pre-COVID-19 levels, the prudent financial management in 2020 has resulted in a stronger than anticipated financial position so we have revised our target for reserves to be £50,000 by the end of 2021.
However, in the short term, the focus must be maintaining liquidity to meet obligations as they fall due. The Board approved a plan to borrow £100,000 Coronavirus Business Interruption Loans Scheme facility to ensure immediate liquidity needs were met. The proceeds of this loan were received on 15 May 2020.
In addition, subsequent to the enforced temporary closure of the SALTO Centre, the Board and Management have adopted a process of controlled cost reduction measures to ensure critical services are maintained during temporary closure. This is evident from the figures reported in the Statement of Financial Activities.

FUTURE PLANS
In 2019, SALTO developed a medium-term plan but this is now subject to review in light of the impact of COVID-19. The focus is now upon an effective reopening, initially complying with the prevailing Government and National Governing Body guidelines that will limit operations for a short period of time. Then a controlled yet sustained effort to rebuild membership numbers as well as new and existing services.
We will ensure we have the necessary financial and physical resources available to meet the demand from former and potential beneficiaries.
Our plans have 6 priority areas:
Health and Safety Management
SALTO is committed to maintaining a robust Health & Safety Management System, that ultimately ensures that all users of the SALTO Centre remain safe.
Community & Membership Define policies and COVID-19 Secure adapted procedures, that set out best practice, for the delivery of our charitable objects. To further the role that SALTO plays in its area of benefit and enhance its relationships with all stakeholders. EducationBy focussing& uponEmploymentthe needs of club, establish a framework for the investment in people, as soon as British Gymnastics Coach Education resumes, to fulfil their personal development goals whilst using these skills in the furtherance of our charitable objects.
Services & Events

We must strive to ensure the resources available are fit for purpose and compliant with GDPR.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
The SALTO Foundation Limited is organised as a Company Limited by Guarantee (CLG) Company Registration Number 04794043. The CLG structure is widely used by charities because they not-for-profit companies - that is, they do not distribute their profits to their members but either retain them within the company or use them for some other charitable purpose. The SALTO Foundation Limited was also registered as a UK Registered Charity Number 1099407 in 1995. The SALTO Foundation Limited was originally established to facilitate the purchase of the SALTO Centre with the assistance of a commercial mortgage and to protect the Trustees and Directors running the company from personal liability for the company's debts. The liability of the Trustees and Directors is £1 (One pound sterling). As mentioned, SALTO Gymnastics Club's Charitable Activities were transferred to The SALTO Foundation Limited with effect from 31 December 2020.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the Year Ended 31 DECEMBER 2020
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Trustees The Board of Trustees are responsible for directing, controlling and running and operating the Charity on a day-to-day basis.
The Board should reflect the diversity of SALTO membership and the communities it serves in Luton and the surrounding towns and villages. The Board intends to comply with the new Charity Commission Governance Code and has noted the latest requirements regarding Equality, Diversity and Inclusion. These principles have been incorporated into a new Environmental, Social & Corporate Governance policy.
The Trustee's role requires lay people, parents and professionals who have a wide range of skills and experience to assist with the diverse strategic needs. Any individual, not disqualified from becoming a Trustee, may be invited to become a Trustee by an existing Trustee, on behalf on the existing Board. Such individuals shall be nominated and elected to the Board, at the earliest possible meeting of the Board after acceptance of such invitation and the appointment shall be confirmed at a General Meeting, following the appointment, or at an Extra General Meeting.
The schedule of meetings is now available on the club website. The Board is required to hold a minimum of 2 meetings per annum. Meetings have been held monthly through the COVID-19 crisis, but this frequency should reduce as external conditions permit. Trustee meetings usually have a session during which the General Manager and Coach Manager present commentary on progress against plan, covering the day-to-day administration of the Charity activities, review policies and seek decisions, before Board business is considered. Trustees' meetings agree the broad strategy and areas of activity for the Charity, including consideration of any bursary making, capital investment projects, reserves and risk management policies and performance. The Board actively seeks to improve its performance and actively encourages applications to joining the board by following the process described on the website and promoted via social media and annual member survey questions. New trustees ideally serve for five years after which they may put themselves forward for re-appointment. The Constitution provides for a minimum of three trustees, with no maximum number.
On appointment, new trustees sign a model trustee declaration statement committing them to giving of their time and expertise. The induction process for any newly appointed trustee, includes an initial meeting with the Chair and the Trustees, followed by a series of short meetings with the Chief Operating Officer, General Manager and Coach Manager. These meetings will include a brief history of the Charity, copy Board and Management Meeting minutes, a copy of the last three years of annual reports and accounts, a copy of the Articles of Association and a copy of the Charity Commission's guidance 'Charity Trustee: what's involved (CC3a)’ and ‘Public Benefit: running a charity’.
Trustees are required to disclose all relevant interests and register them with the Chief Operating Officer in accordance with the Charity's policy withdraw from decisions where a conflict of interest arises.

The directors have considered the financial health of the company along with the various government measures in place to support businesses through this pandemic and with this in mind the directors believe that the company, at the date of signing, will continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future. The impact of COVID-19 has seen a major disruption to our activities in 2020. In 2021, there will continue to be additional costs associated with maintenance and hygiene arrangements associated with H&S Covid Secure measures. Furthermore, our income will be significantly reduced in 2021. At the date of approval of the accounts, it is too early to state with certainty what the impact of COVID-19 will have on the 2021 financial performance. Some details of the measures taken to date are detailed in this report.
The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).
Preparation of consolidated financial statements
The financial statements contain information about The Salto Foundation Limited as an individual company and do not contain consolidated financial information as the parent of a group. The charity is exempt under Section 399(2A) of the Companies Act 2006 from the requirements to prepare consolidated financial statements.
Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
In order to properly apply the charity’s accounting policies, as described above, the Trustees are required to make judgements and estimates in respect of carrying values of assets and liabilities which may not be apparent from other sources of information. The Trustees base these critical accounting judgements and estimations on previous historical experience and other factors which the Trustees judge to be relevant. Judgements and estimates will invariably differ from actual results and hence such judgements and estimates are reviewed by the Trustees on an ongoing basis.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
The key sources of estimation uncertainty which have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements are described below:
Property valuation
The fair value of the property has been determined by an external valuer and is derived from the sale of similar buildings within a local radius.
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.
Charitable Activities are divided between Primary Trading Income, Other Trading Income, Fundraising and Investment Income.

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
Included within fixed assets is a freehold property which is used to further the charity's objectives.
Freehold property is stated at market value. Any aggregate surplus or deficit arising from changes in the fair value is recognised through the statement of financial activities and included in the designated revaluation reserve.
Improvements to property are recognised initially at cost and then subsequently measured at cost less depreciation over its estimated economic useful life and any adjustment for permanent impairment. The useful life for improvements to property are estimated at 10 years (straight line).
Stocks Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.
Taxation
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the accounts.
Hire purchase and leasing commitments Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.
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.
Donated services
In accordance with Charities SORP (FRS 102), the general volunteer time of our affiliates is not recognised. This is further discussed in the trustees annual report.

ANALYSIS OF NET ASSETS AT THE DATE OF MERGER
-
DEPARTURE FROM THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE COMPANIES ACT 2006
The Salto Foundation Limited have opted to report the combination of Salto Gymnastics Club and The Salto Foundation Limited using merger accounting principles. This is in accordance with section 27 of The Charities Statement ofRecommended Practice (SORP) but represents a departure from Companies Act 2006. The board of trustees have concluded that the financial statements present fairly the financial position and financial performance. The Salto Foundation Limited have complied with applicable legislation, aside from this departure (paragraph 10 of Schedule 6 of the Regulations as defined by FRS 102), in order to achieve a true and fair presentation.
The financial statements have been prepared on a merger accounting basis and the results for Salto Gymnastics Club for the 2020 and 2019 periods have been included within the financial statements.
The treatment that the applicable legislation required is the adoption of the acquisition method of a business combination. This treatment is deemed to be misleading as the boards of Trustees, for both charities, agreed to merge activities and have obtained confirmation from the Charity Commission of this arrangement.
