BROAD STREET MEETING HALL

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the year ended 31 March 2023

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2023. 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).

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

The past year has seen Broad Street Hall [BSH] strengthen its position as a local community hub that accommodates and supports the diverse communities of Coventry and particularly Foleshill.

BSH has increased its delivery of activities and services by working in partnership with other groups, organisations, and agencies. This has helped facilitate advocacy and advice services, youth provision, older people's services, and our peer support program as well as entertaining activities and community events.

Various grants throughout the year have supported BSH in creating new activities and projects -

National Lottery Reaching Community Grant continued to cover salaries and assorted core costs as well as enabling BSH to provide assorted educational and non-educational activities for free.

Go Foleshill Youth Grant helped with setting up the female youth group that provides somewhere safe for young Muslims to enjoy sports, creativity, and time with their peers.

Heart of England 'Lets Create' Grant funded the Kadence community drumming group to produce a piece of music especially for the Jubilee celebrations, which used styles and sounds from the different nationalities of Foleshill.

Healthwatch Grant was part of a citywide project that ensured the opinions of the underrepresented and marginalised were collected and fed back to NHS services.

A Community Resilience Grant from Coventry City Council helped with the continuation of the Wellness Junction sessions providing physical, emotional, and mental wellbeing activities, support, and guidance.

The team at Broad Street Hall; the trustees, staff, and volunteers, will continue to work with and on behalf of local people to help create a strong and caring neighbourhood. The board of trustees will also continue to strengthen the strategic and operational position of Broad Street Hall to ensure that there will continue to be a community hub for the future.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF BROAD STREET MEETING HALL

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Broad Street Meeting Hall

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Broad Street Meeting Hall (the Trust) for the year ended 31 March 2023.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent examiner's statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by Section 130 of the Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ended 31 March 2023

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

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.

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

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Freehold property - 2% on cost - Fixtures and fittings 20% on reducing balance Computer equipment - 20% on cost

Taxation

The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.

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.

Financial instruments

Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the transaction price including transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less impairment.

Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in the income statement.
