Report of the Trustees

for the Year Ended 31 March 2022

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

To promote the benefit of the inhabitants of the parish of Chobham in the county of Surrey and the neighbourhood in the boroughs of Runnymede, Surrey Heath and Woking (the area of benefit) without distinction of age, sex, sexual orientation, race or of political, religious or other opinions, by associating together with the inhabitants and the local authorities, voluntary and other organisations in a common effort to advance education and to provide facilities in the interests of social welfare for recreation and leisure time occupation with the objective of improving the conditions of life for the said inhabitants by securing the establishment of a community centre and the maintenance and management of the same.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

The charity manages the day to day running of the Chobham Community Centre on a commercial basis as shown by the attached accounts.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Reserves policy

The trustees have a policy of providing annually from profits earned separate reserves for dilapidations/improvements at the Community Centre and for the care and maintenance of the roadway leading to the Centre. However, during this year, the trustees have taken the opportunity to rebuild their general reserves following the deficit in the previous year. At the end of the current year, the trustees will consider further transfers to reserves after taking into account the result for the year and their view of the adequacy of the reserves held.

Following the acquisition of the height barrier at the entrance to the Centre in April 2021, the donations received for that purpose have been transferred into the General Reserve from Restricted Funds.

Principal funding sources

The principal funding sources are the hire of the building for use as a Community Centre to local inhabitants, enterprises and businesses to carry out functions that benefit the community.

Covid 19

The income for the year shows some recovery from the effects of the pandemic and has been further boosted by a successful business interruption insurance claim and government grants.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of CHOBHAM COMMUNITY CENTRE ASSOCIATION

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Chobham Community Centre Association (‘the Association’) for the year ended 31 March 2022.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity trustees of the Association 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 Association’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the 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 Association 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 2022

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard FRS102 and the requirements of the Statement of Recommended Practice, Accounting and Reporting by Charities, effective 1[st] January 2015.

Incoming resources

All incoming resources are included on the Statement of Financial Activities when the charity is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy.

Resources expended

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.

Furniture & Fittings - 33% on cost
Plant & Equipment - 10% 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. The trustees have reviewed the make up of those funds previously described as restricted funds and have concluded that, as these amounts represented amounts set aside by the trustees against possible future expenditure, they should properly be described as designated funds rather than restricted funds. These amounts have therefore been redesignated as such.

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.
