KICK LONDON

TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT (continued)

Mission and Mission Statement

The purpose is summarised as “transforming young people’s lives, with God’s love, through sport and support”.

KICK LONDON seeks to provide opportunities for young people to develop their physical and life skills through coaching Sport, Street Dance, Solutions Focused Mentoring and Schoolsbased Chaplaincy. This is led by qualified coaches who coach these areas with social, moral, spiritual and cultural values; underpinned in a Christian ethos.

Our Mission – What we do?

To transform young people’s lives, with God’s love, through sport and support.

Our Vision - Where we want to be in 15 years?

To reach a generation of young people, within a generation of time.

Our Ethos – What is our motivation for how we operate?

To follow the example that Jesus set to love young people and be relevant in the way he communicated with them.

Our Values – How we do what we do?

We aim to transform young people’s lives by being:

Aspirational on behalf of our young people, being ambitious for their progress and in our desire to reach more young people.

Compassionate toward our young people, showing humbleness, being inclusive and making our approach flexible to suit their needs.

Excellent in our performance, innovating with continuous improvement for the best outcomes for our young people.

Intentional in our relationships with young people, schools, churches, partners, funders and each other to building a family together at KICK LONDON.

Integral in our decision making, in our relationships with each other and in our partnerships.

Strategies

The objects of the Charity are being achieved by firstly, engaging in schools delivering professional services across Physical Education, Street Dance, Solutions Focused Mentoring and Schools-based Chaplaincy. Secondly, by setting up and supporting Sport and Street Dance KICK Academies delivered by local volunteers. All professional and volunteer coaches are committed to KICK LONDON’s ethos and are trained coaches.

KICK Academies aim to encourage young people to engage in both physical fitness as well as explore matters of faith. We are disappointed that today, 95% of young people do not attend church (ref. Scripture Union) and that the country’s youth are seven times more likely to play sport on a Sunday than go to a church meeting (ref. Football Association, which states that 36% of young people play sport on a Sunday). We seek to enable young people to explore both sport and faith together through the KICK Academies. The Charity works with local churches to train volunteers to provide themed coaching sessions in Football or Street Dance.

Schools work includes delivering School assemblies, values-based PE lessons, Solutions Focused Mentoring, Street Dance provision and Sports Chaplaincy. The Charity has developed a curriculum for this purpose and is taking advantage of Government Sports Premium funding which is available to Infant, Primary, Secondary PRU and Special Schools to reach young people in need.

The Charity has, since its outset had links with Youth for Christ. Staff attend their Annual Conference and other Youth for Christ events.

TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT (continued)

Volunteers

Many of the necessary activities and tasks of the Charity are undertaken wholly or partially by the Trustees and Company Secretary, who are unpaid volunteers: these include management, strategy formulation, dealing with regulatory authorities, relationships with other organisations and accounts preparation. In addition, there are invaluable contributions from other volunteers.

Public Benefit

The Trustees have considered the advice of the Charity Commission on public benefit. The provision of public benefit is given at no charge or at market rates and is made available to all people, including those on low incomes. We aspire to develop not only the physical skills but life skills of all young people we encounter, enabling them to be trained with values and to grow as people who make informed decisions on life and faith.

Achievements and Performance for the Public Benefit

At the end of September 2020, the Charity was providing sessions in 70 schools and there were 22 active KICK Academies which means that over 12,000 young people were benefiting from KICK activities on a weekly basis. These activities take place in the 28 Boroughs across London and within the M25.

In the past year, the Charity has recruited new coaches and other staff, so the team now stands at over 60 employees. KICK LONDON has retained a focus on partnerships, quality and commitment to our strong ethos to ensure consistent implementation of provision.

Between 2015 and 2020, KICK LONDON quadrupled in size in terms of its reach. Building on this success and inspired by the trustees’ long term vision, KICK LONDON’s CEO led a consultative process across 12 months to arrive with trustee approval at a new 5 year strategy through to 2025. This 5-year strategy is aimed at reaching a generation of young people within a generation of time.

Significant Events in the Year

Covid-19 posed an existential threat to our work in schools. As news of the national lockdown broke and schools were told they would be closing, we built on our good relationships with our schools and worked closely to ensure that in partnership we could continue to meet the needs of their pupils during this demanding time for all. The flexibility of our structures and the skills of our coaches allowed us to reposition our services and the way we worked quickly. As a result, during this entire crisis we have continued to work in 58 of our 70 schools throughout this period. We have delivered:

1.1. Key Worker School education - delivering sport, dance, mentoring and chaplaincy on site to Key Worker children to enable them to save lives. Now that Schools are starting phased reopening we are continuing to work in these environments.

1.2. Remote Mentoring - delivering sessions online to engage those most at risk looking at - Dealing with anxiety; Maintaining positive thinking; Contributing an active part in home life; Keeping good routine and structure; Provide purpose and stimulation throughout the day.

1.3. Face/Face and Remote Chaplaincy - Our Chaplains have continued to go into schools and support learners in person and work with those not in school via virtual platforms. In this time, we have also attended funerals, providing pastoral support for parents, pupils and staff during this bereavement.

In addition, as restrictions from the lockdown lifted, we scaled up our holiday based provision of KICK Camps and in the summer period we delivered a total of 140 days of KICK Camps, an increase from 30 days last summer.

KICK LONDON TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT (continued)

KICK LONDON has added a net 10 new schools and seen 6 existing schools extend provision this year. The continued growth of the Charity’s mentoring provision in which the Charity mentors over 600 young people each week gives an opportunity to have in-depth input into the lives of young people, as well as generating income at usual hourly/daily rates. Mentoring has been a significant growth area, which is now 40% of KICK LONDON’s work in schools.

We have been delighted to see our first ever cohort of 11 KICK coaches to complete a PGCE (Postgraduate Certificate in Education) equivalent qualification to become qualified teachers. This qualification will improve the quality of our education provision as our qualified coaches have become qualified teachers.

Financial Review

Income and Expenditure

The Charity’s income for the year was £1,296,155 (2019 - £977,666). An analysis of the income by category is shown on the Statement of Financial Activities. Expenditure for the year was £1,108,871 (2019 - £929,020). Unrestricted funds carried forward grew to £453,422.

Risk Assessment

The major risks to which the Charity is exposed, as identified by the Trustees are reviewed in a systematic manner and systems established to mitigate those risks. The Charity has adequate insurance cover and a Child Protection Policy. Our Risk Register is active in monitoring inherent and residual risks. We have identified up to 20 organisational risks, which are categorised by operational, strategic, reputational and financial risk.

These possible areas of risk are regularly monitored, of which the following are considered to be important:

Loss of Reputation . A range of safeguarding policies and practices are in place to avoid a safeguarding incident, including a new safeguarding policy, staff training, having a safeguarding lead on the Board, enhanced DBS (Disclosure and Barring Service) checks and rapid responses to issues at schools.

Loss of income. The Charity aims to maintain a high quality of service, keep close to its head teachers, increasing the range of sports offered and finding new ways to achieve objectives. Rapid Growth . The Charity recognises the risk of the substantial growth it is experiencing and accordingly it has restructured the staff team, increased staff capacity and is using techniques such as RACI Matrix (Responsible, Accountable, Consulted and Informed Matrix) SAR (SelfAssessment Report) and QIP (Quality Improvement Plan).

Going Concern

Taking into account reserves and anticipated recurring income, the Trustees are confident that the Charity remains a going concern for at least twelve months from the date of approval of these accounts.

COVID 19

The special measures introduced by the Government in response to COVID 19, has impacted Kick London but the Charity has continued to operate effectively, albeit at a reduced level for a period. The Board of Trustees appointed a Board sub-committee (which includes a Chartered Accountant, a Solicitor and an HR expert) to monitor the situation. Financial projections and Cash Flow Forecasts were produced and scrutinised on a regular basis and the situation and future prospects are encouraging.

Small Company Provisions

This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions for small companies under Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006.

TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT (continued)

Reserves

At the year end, the charity had total reserves of £489,672, of which £36,250 was restricted. The Charity has accumulated unrestricted reserves of £453,422, which is 35.0% (2019 – 30.9%) of total annual income. The Trustees consider that the fund reserves at the year-end were adequate but not excessive. The Charity has a budget surplus for the 2020-2021 financial year. The Trustees’ reserve policy is to target a level of operating reserves of 3 times average monthly operating expenses using the annual plan as a base. The operating expense figures used are before any capital items.

2020 2019 £ £ Total Unrestricted Reserves £453,422 £302,388 _ _ Free Reserves Requirement: 3 months’ budgeted routine expenditure £277,000 £230,000 _ _

Auditors

The Trustees intend to ask JCS Accountants to continue to act as the Charity’s Auditors next year.

Plans for the Future

KICK LONDON is committed to its mission to transform young people’s lives with God’s love, through sport and support. The trustees are determined to deliver a high-quality service with a curriculum, clear policy and procedures, thereby developing a consistent brand in both school provision and in the community. This will be achieved with a structure of Board, CEO, Managers, Coaches and Administrative Officers. Marketing will be through literature, the website, social media, public relations, schools work and the development of the KICK brand. A recruitment strategy aims to employ the requisite numbers of qualified staff and volunteers.

The Charity’s services have extended from PE National Curriculum, Street Dance provision and Solutions-Focused mentoring and schools-based Chaplaincy in schools. A strong SelfAssessment and Quality Improvement Process has been initiated, to review the status of the organisation and assess how quality improvements can be established in the areas of outcomes for young people, coaching, leadership and management, and personal development for the Charity’s service users. The Charity remains committed to its Christian ethos to follow the example of Jesus, who loved young people and was relevant in the way He communicated with them. KICK services are open to anybody and everybody of any faith or none.

Fee income from schools will continue to be a key element in financing the growth of the Charity, along with church, individual and grant-making trust income. The organisation is seeking grant funding in order to finance the development of the work. The Trustees believe that prayer is vital and wish to encourage prayer at every step.

The Report was approved by the Trustees on 6[th] March 2021.

Independent auditor’s report to the members of Kick London For the year ended 30 September 2020

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Kick London for the year ended 30 September 2020 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet and the notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the ISAs (UK) require us to report to you where:

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

Independent auditor’s report to the members of Kick London (continued) For the year ended 30 September 2020

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of our audit:

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the directors’ report included with the trustees' report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the trustees' responsibilities statement, the trustees' (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: http://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

These financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis, under the historical cost convention. They have been prepared in accordance with the "Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) ("the Charities SORP"), with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland ("FRS 102"), with the Companies Act 2006 and with the Charities Act 2011. The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity as set out in FRS 102.

The principles adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are set out below.

(a) Company Status

The Charity is a company limited by guarantee. The Members of the Charity are the Trustees named on Page 2. In the event of the Charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the Charity.

(b) Going Concern

The trustees have assessed whether the use of the going concern basis is appropriate and have considered possible events or conditions (including the recent outbreak of COVID-19) that might cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The trustees have made this assessment for a period of at least one year from the date of approval of the financial statements. In particular, the trustees have considered the charity's forecasts and projections and the possible implications should projected income and / or expenditure vary unexpectedly. The trustees have concluded that there is a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue to operate for the foreseeable future. The charity therefore continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.

(c) Fund Accounting

Unrestricted funds are funds which are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity. Restricted funds are donations which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors; they include donations received from appeals for specific activities or projects.

(d) Income

Income is recognised in the period in which the charity becomes entitled to receipt, the amount receivable can be measured with reasonable certainty, and receipt is probable. Income is deferred when it relates to services that have not been provided by the balance sheet date, or when the charity has to fulfil conditions before becoming entitled to it, or where the donor has specified that the income is to be expended in a future period.

Income from donations and legacies includes recoverable gift aid, which is recognised when the related donation is received. Gift aid that has not been recovered by the balance sheet date is included as a debtor.

The charity relies on volunteers to carry out many of its activities. However, in accordance with the SORP, the value of these services has not been included in these financial statements as they cannot be reliably measured.

KICK LONDON NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2020 (continued)

Income from charitable activities represents income receivable from services supplied in furtherance of the charity's charitable objects.

The charity has taken the view that it has only one charitable activity, namely the advancement of the Christian faith among young people using sport, and all income from donations, legacies and charitable activities is in respect of this one activity.

(e) Expenditure

Expenditure, including irrecoverable VAT, is recognised when it is incurred or, if earlier, when a legal or constructive obligation for a payment arises provided that it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

The Charities SORP requires charities with income over £500,000 to allocate costs to the various activities undertaken by the charity. The nature of the work of the charity is considered to be so integrated that it is not possible to separately identify the costs incurred in respect of any one activity.

(f) Tangible Fixed Assets

Items purchased or donated for the charity's own use are capitalised when the cost of purchased items, or the fair value of donated items, is more than £1,000 per item and the item is expected to benefit the charity over more than one accounting period. Depreciation is charged on a straight line basis so as to write down the value of each asset to its estimated residual value (if any) over its expected useful economic life. To date the charity has not incurred any expenditure that needed to be capitalised.

(g) Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of opening of the deposit.

(h) Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation arising from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are recognised at their settlement amount.

Income relating to grants that has been received but not yet earned is treated as deferred income.

(i) Taxation

The company is a registered charity; it has taken advantage of the various reliefs from taxation available to charities and no tax is payable on the charity's income.

(j) Operating Leases

Leases which do not transfer substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to the charity are classified as operating leases. Operating lease payments are recognised as an expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

(k) Pension contributions

The charity operates defined contribution pension schemes for its employees. Obligations for contributions to these schemes are recognised as an expense when the liability arises. The assets of these schemes are held separately from those of the charity in independently administered funds. The employer contribution is 6% of gross pay for most employees and 3% for sessional staff.

(l) Financial instruments

The charity only has financial assets and liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.

(m) Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgement

The trustees do not consider that there are any material sources of estimation or uncertainty at the balance sheet date that could result in a material adjustment to the carrying values of assets and liabilities in the next reporting period.

Many of the necessary activities and tasks of the Charity are undertaken wholly or partially by the Trustees and Company Secretary, who are unpaid volunteers: these include management, strategy formulation, dealing with regulatory authorities, relationships with other organisations, book-keeping and accounts preparation. In addition, there are invaluable contributions from other volunteers in the area of coaching, fundraising, guidance and management of local Kick Academies.

11. COVID 19

The special lock-down measures introduced by the Government in response to COVID 19 impacted Kick London but the Charity has continued to operate effectively, albeit at a reduced level for a short period. The Board of Trustees appointed a Board sub-committee to monitor the situation including the Chair and four trustees with finance, business, legal and human resources expertise. Financial projections, cash flow, school contracts, demand for services, risk log and government updates were monitored by the team on a daily and weekly basis, escalating issues and decisions to the Sub-committee regularly, and who met each month to review progress and determine what decisions needed to be made.

Appropriate action was taken by the team to protect charitable activities, including significant front line work undertaken by our coaches, supporting children of front line workers. However, some work was lost and therefore some staff were placed on furlough, particularly at the start of lockdown when there was considerable uncertainty.

As reported in Note 3, £56,033 of grants were claimed under the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme. With grassroots KICK Academies closed due to lockdown, staff were redeployed towards delivery in schools. 58 of our 71 schools continued to work with us throughout lockdown but over 100 after school clubs with schools were closed. In addition, for the 13 schools who declined this opportunity we utilised the furlough scheme so as to avoid redundancies. This was well understood by the staff team and accounted for a staff FTE of 4.1. Staff were transitioned back into the organisation as lockdown eased and schools returned to face-face provision.
