Independent Examiner's Report on the Accounts

Report to the trustees and members of Splash! For Schools and Communities (Charity number 1106290) on the accounts for the year ended 31st August 2022.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under Section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act), and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to

Basis of independent examiner's statement

My examination was carried out in accordance with General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the accounts.

Trustees Report

The trustees present their Annual Report together with the Statement of Accounts of the Charity for the 12 month period of 1[st] September 2021 – 31[st] August 2022. The financial statements comply with the Charity’s Trust Deed and with applicable law.

STATUS AND ORGANISATION

The Charity was established by Trust Deed dated 4th April, 2004 (The Principal Deed) and amended by Supplemental Deed dated 15[th] September, 2004 in the name of Splash for Schools and Communities.

The Charity was registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales on 13[th] October, 2004 and at the close of the financial year, has 6 trustees who continue to act on the Charity’s behalf - Dan Jenkins, Michelle Leach, Ben Sheldon, Dani Taylor, Sally Richardson and Sara-Jane Stevens.

Immediately following year end we moved the registered office of the Charity to c/o Findon Valley Free Church, 1-11 Lime Tree Avenue, Findon Valley, Worthing, West Sussex, BN14 0DJ.

OBJECTS

The Objects of the Splash Trust are:

ACTIVITIES REPORT: IMPLEMENTATION OF THE OBJECTS & ACHIEVEMENTS

Splash continued its involvement in a range of projects and activities in schools, churches of different denominations and within the local community in the rural area of central West Sussex, roughly bounded by Petworth, Billingshurst, Storrington and Steyning. We also visited a small number of schools in the Durrington and Findon Valley areas of Worthing, Lancing and Albourne.

COVID-19 impact

We have continued to produce electronic resources throughout the year as schools continue to be effected by Covid-19.

SCHOOLS

Our work in schools has focussed on providing Christian assemblies which offer opportunities for pupils to participate in regular acts of collective worship which are relevant and age appropriate. We have produced 5 assemblies over the course of the year for primary schools, which have been

gratefully received by our schools and shared online for other organisations to access. The feedback from schools is supportive and positive and we continue to deliver a high quality ‘product’ despite the temporary move to pre-recorded video assemblies. The assembly plus packs continue to be popular with schools. This year we have delivered workshops looking at secondary school transition to a number of primary schools, targeted at yr6 students. These workshops have been well received and feedback has been positive from both schools and participants.

COMMUNITIES

We returned to Pulborough to run a holiday club during the summer, based at the local school and supported by local churches, which was well received by the local community. We also supported Petworth Area Churches Together to host a holiday club in Petworth. In addition to this we have supported local churches with a number of local events including community outreach events and church activity days.

STAFF & ORGANISATIONAL CHANGES

This year we have had 5 part time workers (equivalent to 1.7 FTE employees) financed by our partnerships with local churches and donations from churches, individuals and trusts.

We continue to seek volunteers to help us deliver the activities we run, both in the schools programme and with community events.

PARTNERSHIPS

We have continued our partnerships with local churches, gaining additional volunteer helpers and practical and financial assistance for project work. We continue to seek new partnerships and new opportunities to work within our local community.

FINANCE

Our financial position has been significantly affected by reduced donations from both individuals, churches and trusts as the well documented challenges within the economy continue. Upon the closure of PCC in October 2021 we received a one of gift of £40,000, which is being released into general operational income at the same amount that we received from PCC each month when they were an active church. We appreciate that this gift is a finite resource and the Trustees are looking into how new alternative regular funding can be generated. Our income this year, with the exception of this one off gift, has been significantly below our expenditure. We continue to seek long term stability through increasing donations and fundraising.

12. RISK ASSESSMENT

The trustees actively review the major risks which the charity faces on a regular basis and believe that their annual review of the controls over key financial systems, provides sufficient cover for its operations. The trustees have also examined other operational and business risks which they face and confirm that they have established systems/processes to mitigate the significant risks.

13. RESERVES POLICY

The trustees have considered the level of reserves they wish to retain, appropriate to the charity's needs. Based on the Charity's size and the level of financial commitments the trustees believe that three months of essential operational costs is adequate. The trustees aim to ensure the charity will be able to continue to fulfil its charitable objectives even it there is a temporary shortfall in income or unexpected expenditure. A 2021 grant from Petworth Community Church following their closure of £40,000 has been Designated and is being drawn down at the rate of £600 pm (the same monthly amount received from them when the church was active). A further draw down was made at year end equal to the excess of expenditure over income on the General Fund for the year.

14. PUBLIC BENEFIT

The charity acknowledges its requirement to demonstrate clearly that it must have charitable purposes or 'aims' that are for the public benefit. Details of how the charity targets to achieve this are driven by its primary objectives. The outcomes are summarized within the trustees report for the year. The trustees confirm that they have paid due regard to the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit when deciding which activities the charity should and do undertake.
