KELTON NURSERY
TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2023.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Companies Act 2006 and "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)".
Objectives and activities
The charity's objectives and principle activity is the provision of quality education to infants and children through the provision of day-care, after school, and holiday club services.
The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.
Our significant activities include:
-
Nursery day-care services.
-
Afterschool services
-
Holiday club services
In setting our objectives and planning our activities the trustees have also considered the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit.
As a not for profit organisation, all profits is invested back into the provision to ensure that it is fully resourced and fit for purpose.
Kelton Nursery and After School is open to everyone within the community and beyond. It provides government funded places, and offers bursarial assistance to ensure equality of access to the provision. The provision of bursary assisted places ensures the needs of families with low income or other additional needs are catered for.
The nursery fees are determined by running costs, not profit. We are committed to keeping our fees competitive, and fee increases are only considered to ensure the continuation of the service.
Being a Charity with a Board of Trustees that is made up from parents, means that families not only benefit from excellent childcare, but can develop their own skills and knowledge by becoming part of the governance of the provision. Parents and families involved in Kelton can feel they are contributing to the wider community by becoming involved in supporting a charitable cause.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
Achievements and performance
We have had a very challenging year at Kelton. Key achievements are as follows:
Recruitment
We have faced significant challenges (as have the rest of the country in a variety of sectors) around recruitment of staff which has put additional pressure on the leadership team to cover rooms to maintain ration. Covid has had a detrimental impact on the recruitment of childcare staff since lockdown ended in 2020 which remains a sector wide issue. As a result of this the setting has struggled to recruit and retain staff this year. The committee have been supporting the management team with recruitment initiatives to attract new employees.
New Intakes
The difficulties with recruitment have also resulted in the setting having to reduce the intake of children in the nursery. As we continue to have a challenge around attracting ne w staff the management team have reduced the intake of new children to ensure we have sufficient rations of staff to children.
Roof Repairs
We had invested significantly in roof repairs and concluded rook and other repairs this year that were planned in our asset strategy.
Inflation
The impact of inflation effected the operating margins within the setting which resulted in us raising the childcare fees in April 2023 to ensure we could cover the overheads of the business. We will be reviewing fees again in April 2024 to ensure that they are both fair and competitive.
Financial review
The charity has reported a deficit of £40,087 for the year to 31 March 2023 (2022: Surplus £6,357).
The impact of this deficit has resulted in a net current asset position of £(2,007) at the year end (2022: £47,596). Overall the charity has net assets of £726,097 (2022: £766,184). Free reserves (total reserves less fixed assets) amounted to a negative of £23,673 (2022 £4,703)
The trustees acknowledge the need for continued strong working capital management, together with regular review and monitoring of the number of children registered for its services on a month by month basis.
Reserves policy
It is the policy of the charity to try to build up modest unrestricted reserves, which are the free reserves of the charity, to a level which will provide assistance for the future operating costs. The trustees continue to work towards building reserves to an optimum range of between £65,000 and £195,000. At this level there would be sufficient free reserves to cover overhead costs for 1-3 months running costs.
Principal funding sources
The charity's primary source of income is generated from nursery fees. Fees are received in return for the provision of daycare, afterschool and holiday club services.
Investment policy and objectives
The charity’s funds are currently fully utilised for working capital with no surplus at this time for investment.
At such a time this position changes the trustees will develop a suitable policy and set of objectives for investment.

Risk Management
All existing policies and procedures are periodically reviewed by the senior management team to ensure that they continue to meet the changing needs of the charity and childcare business.
To support the management team, we have engaged a firm of Health and Safety consultants, who work with the staff to ensure all matters are dealt with appropriately.
The board have also engaged an HR consultant who is supporting develop a robust performance framework going forward.
All existing policies and procedures are periodically reviewed by the senior management team to ensure that they continue to meet the changing needs of the charity and childcare business.
The Board of Trustees continue to work with the management team to review the risk register.
All existing policies and procedures are periodically reviewed by the senior management team to ensure that they continue to meet the changing needs of the charity and childcare business.
The Board of Trustees began the process of creating a risk register last year, this continues in its development, and will be reviewed during the year.
Plans for future periods
Our key priorities for the coming year are as follows:
-
Continue to act on the recommendations from the Ofsted inspection
-
Ongoing staff support and development
-
Review our financial controls within the nursery, reviewing ways to increase the nursery reserve
-
Continue to increase the number of parent trustees, and explore the potential for more external trustees to develop the skills pool within the board
-
Stabilise the board of trustees and recruit new trustees as these are vital to the continued running of the nursery
-
Continue to strengthen the parents as partner relationship
-
Consider funding options for fundamental changes required to the building

KELTON NURSERY
TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
The directors of the company are also charity trustees for the purposes of charity law. Under the requirements of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, one third of directors must retire at annual general meeting. The trustees of the charity are appointed by the members at each Annual General Meeting.
We are in the process of recruiting new trustees and see this as a valuable development to ensure the structure of an effective committee.
Organisational structure
The trustees meet on a regular basis and are responsible for the strategic direction and policy of the charity. Fee increases, wage awards and an annual budget are set by the trustees and performance against an agreed budget is reviewed monthly. The day to day operational management of the charity is carried out by the senior management team, supported by external financial and HR support.
Related Parties
None of our trustees receive remuneration or other benefit from their work with the charity. Any relationship between a trustee or manager of the charity with a related party must be disclosed to the full board of trustees on appointment, a declaration of conflict of interest is also a standing agenda item at the bi-monthly trustee meetings. In the current year no such related party transactions were reported.
The trustees' report was approved by the Board of Trustees.

KELTON NURSERY
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
1 Accounting policies
Charity information
Kelton Nursery is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Kelton House, Park Avenue Mossley Hill, Liverpool, Merseyside, L18 8BT.
1.1 Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's [governing document], the Companies Act 2006, FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the Charities SORP "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 charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
1.2 Going concern
At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
1.3 Charitable funds
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the charity.
1.4 Income
Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Grants are included as income from activities in furtherance of the charity's objectives where these amount to a contract for services but as voluntary income where the money is given in response to an appeal or with greater freedom for use.

1 Accounting policies
(Continued)
1.5 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates.
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.
Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include the audit fees and costs linked to the strategic management of the charity.
All costs are allocated between the expenditure categories of the SOFA on a basis designed to reflect the use of the resource. Costs relating to a particular activity are allocated directly; others are apportioned on an appropriate basis.
Support costs are those costs that assist the work of the charity but do not directly represent charitable activities and include office costs, governance costs, administration costs. Where support costs cannot be directly attributable to particular headings they have been allocated on a percentage of time spent on these activities.
1.6 Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Freehold land and buildings 1% on cost Fixtures and fittings 25% reducing balance Equipment 25% on cost Motor vehicles 25% on cost
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.
1.7 Impairment of fixed assets
At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).
1.8 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

1.9 Financial instruments
The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
1.10 Employee benefits
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.
Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
1.11 Retirement benefits
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.

2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
