## **- Board of Trustees Report to Members 2021 Chairman's Remarks** 

This report relates to the year ended December 31[st] . 2021. 

At the start of 2021, it was difficult to know what the future held in store. The covid virus was at its second peak and it was not possible to offer our normal range of activities and opportunities. 

The situation improved rapidly in the spring and it became possible to cautiously reintroduce some of our programme. 

Room hire and rental occupation began to resume but in a different way to the past. The demand for longer term room lets began to increase, whilst the take up of sessional hire was slow to resume. These factors shifted the balance of centre use. The income from room hire and grants meant that we remained solvent at a time when some organisations and businesses were struggling. It was not however one of our more profitable years. 

It is most fortunate that during 2021 we continued to have the services of Alan and Debra Barnett. They remained constantly optimistic that if we ever found the tunnel there would be a light at the end of it! A huge debt of gratitude is owed to them both. 

I am also grateful once again for the work of our volunteers during the limited opportunities available. 

I am pleased to have had the opportunity to support Alington House for another year. I take pride in the fact that (unlike some concerns) we were not defeated and stand ready for the future. 

David Thurlwell Chair to the Trustees.

## **Report to the trustees of Alington House Community Association (Limited by guarantee) On the accounts for the year ended 31 December 2021 Charity Number: 1113430 Company Number: 05621637** 

|**Respective**|The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes|
|---|---|
|**responsibilities of**|of company law)are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in|
|**trustees and examiner**|accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (“the 2006|
||Act”).|
||Having satisfed myself that an audit is not required for this year under|
||Part 16 of the 2006 Act and that an independent examination is needed,|
||It is my responsibility to:|
||<br>examine the accounts under section 145 of the Act,|
||<br>to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by|
||the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act,|
||and|
||<br>to state whether particular matters have come to my attention|



|**Basis of independent**|My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions|
|---|---|
|**examiner’s statement**|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 no opinion is given as to whether|
||the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to|
||those matters set out in the statement below.|
|**Independent**|In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to|
|**examiner's statement**|my attention which gives me cause to believe that in, any material|
||respect:|
||• accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 386 of the|
||Companies Act 2006; or|
||• the accounts do not accord with such records; or|
||• the accounts do not comply with relevant accounting requirements|
||under section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 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; or|
||•the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the Charities|
||SORP (FRS102).|
||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.|
