Trustees’ Responsibilities in relation to the Financial Statements

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Report and the financial statements

in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards. The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year, which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the Charity for that period.

They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence to take reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

KICK LONDON

TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT (continued)

Our Mission Statement – 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.

Our Strategy

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’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 good partnership links with British 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 Treasurer, 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 either 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 2022, the Charity was providing sessions in 109 schools and there were 28 active KICK Academies which means that over 22,500 young people were benefiting from KICK activities on a weekly basis. These activities take place in the 28 Boroughs across London, in the West Midlands, East Midlands, the East of England, North West and North East of England.

In the past year, the Charity has recruited new coaches and other staff, so the team now stands at over 75 employees. KICK has retained a focus on partnerships, quality and commitment to our strong ethos to ensure consistent implementation of provision.

Between 2015 and 2022, KICK quadrupled in size in terms of its reach. In 2020, building on this success and inspired by the trustees’ long-term vision, KICK’s CEO led a consultative process across 12 months to arrive with Trustee approval at a new 5 year strategy through to 2025. A 5-year strategy has begun a process to realise a 15 year vision, to reach a generation of young people within a generation of time.

Significant Events in the Year

During the year we made good progress in increasing the areas across the country where we operate. We moved from being a London focused organisation to now operating in 6 regions across the UK. We have built on our good relationships with our schools and repositioned our services to offer learners a genuine physical, mental and spiritual response to what they have encountered in the Lockdowns.

We have added over 135 new days of delivery to our work across the country and are delighted to have been welcomed into these areas of the country. We have added and trained over 30 new coaches in the last year to enable our growth to continue.

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 300 days of KICK Camps, a considerable increase from 30 days in summer 2019.

We launched new schools work in each of the 5 new regions and now have KICK Academies in Cambridge and as far as Sunderland.

The continued growth of the Charity’s mentoring provision, in which the Charity mentors 1,049 young people each week, gives an opportunity to have in-depth input into the lives of young people. Mentoring has been a significant growth area, which now forms 42% of KICK’s work in schools.

KICK LONDON

TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT (continued)

We have been delighted to see our second ever cohort of 12 KICK coaches to complete the first year of a PGCE (Postgraduate Certificate in Education), an equivalent qualification to becoming qualified teachers. This qualification will improve the quality of our education provision.

Financial Review

Income and Expenditure

The Charity’s income for the year was £1,527,068 (2021 - £1,525,427). An analysis of the income by category is shown on the Statement of Financial Activities. Expenditure for the year was £1,514,143 (2021 - £1,217,566). Unrestricted funds carried forward grew to £627,433.

Risk Assessment

The major risks to which the Charity is exposed, as identified by the Trustees, are reviewed in a systematic manner and systems have been 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 about 25 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 the most important:

Recruitment and retention : Like many organisations, KICK faces staff recruitment and retention challenges due to general economic conditions. Staff shortages are a risk to KICK’s growth strategy. Recruitment is therefore a top priority and significant effort is put into identifying new recruitment channels and strategies for maximising staff retention.

Key person risk: The size of the senior management team is currently small but is being expanded to minimise the impact of any staff turnover at a senior level.

Government and local authority funding: The Charity is heavily focused on schools provision which in turn is dependant on schools being adequately funded. The Charity is engaged in reminding funders of the importance of coaching and mentoring for young people. The Charity also receives grant funding from a number of charities and other organisations to help support its activities and growth strategy for which it is extremely grateful.

Inflation: As for many organisations, inflation, including wage and general cost inflation, presents a challenge. This risk is being mitigated by adopting appropriate pricing strategies and other measures.

Growth: The Charity recognises the risk of the substantial growth it is undergoing particularly in maintaining high standards of service delivery, safeguarding and sound financial management and accordingly it has restructured the staff team, increased staff capacity and is using techniques such as Responsible, Accountable, Consulted and Informed (RACI) Matrix, Self-Assessment Report (SAR) and Quality Improvement Plan (QIP). The Charity has a Finance Committee that closely monitors financial plans, performance and reserves. The Charity also has safeguarding policies and protocols in place and a safeguarding lead among its Trustees.

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.

KICK LONDON

TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT (continued)

COVID 19

Over the past financial year, the impact of COVID19 on our operations has greatly reduced. We have largely been able to return to the way we were working before the pandemic hit. We monitor on-going developments and continue to have a Board sub-committee (which includes a Chartered Accountant, a Solicitor and an HR expert) on stand-by and ready to act should the situation change again.

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.

Reserves

At the year-end, the charity had total reserves of £810,458, of which £183,025 was restricted. The Charity has accumulated unrestricted reserves of £627,433, which is 41.1% (2021 – 34.7%) 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 2022-2023 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.

Auditors

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

Plans for the Future

KICK 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.

Independent auditor’s report to the members of Kick London

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Kick London (the ‘charity’) for the year ended 30 September 2022 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Cash Flows 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

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Charity’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least 12 months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, including the Trustees’ report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The Trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. 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.

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 course of 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 this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. 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.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of our audit:

Independent auditor’s report to the members of Kick London (continued)

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.

The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

Based on our understanding of the company, we identified that the principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations related to company and employment legislation and we considered the extent to which non-compliance might have a material effect on the financial statements. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements such as the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities Act 2011.

We assessed the susceptibility of the company's financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by making enquiries of management, considering the internal controls in place and discussion amongst the engagement team. We determined that the principal risks were related to the recognition of grant income and treatment of restricted funds.

In response to the risks identified we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to:

----- End of picture text -----

Independent auditor’s report to the members of Kick London (continued)

There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of noncompliance. Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.

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.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and regulations made under that Act. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors' report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and its members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

KICK LONDON NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2022

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 financial statements are presented in sterling, rounded to the nearest £.

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, incorporated in England & Wales. The registered address is Holy Trinity Church, Sheen Park, Richmond, Surrey TW9 1UP. 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 ongoing impact 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. For CJRS grant income, the income is recognised in the period to which the underlying furloughed staff costs relate.

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 2022 (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.

The above Trustees are excluded from all appointment, disciplinary and pay decisions in respect of their relatives. T. Rutter and A. Dutton were already employees of the Charity when C. Underhay and J. Dutton become Trustees. T. Rutter ceased to be an employee on 31 March 2022 and J. Dutton ceased to be a trustee on 30 September 2022. There were no other related party transactions.

During the year, key management received employment salary, pension, employer NI and benefits totalling £96,250 (2021: £88,634). During the year the Charity received donations totalling £2,040 (2021: £2,180) from related parties (which includes trustees, any other members of key management and anyone closed connected to them). One employee (2021: 1) received employment salary and benefits that fall within the band £80,000 to £90,000 (2021: £70,000 to £80,000).

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