TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT

YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

The Trustees, who are also Directors for the purposes of the Companies Act, have pleasure in presenting their report and the unaudited financial statements of the charity for the year ending 31 December 2022.

STRUCTURE , GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing document

Bakewell Town and Community Trust is a company limited by guarantee governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association dated 5 December 2005. It was registered at Companies House on 25 January 2006 and was registered as a charity with the Charity Commission on 7 April 2006. Membership of the Trust is open to anyone over 18 years of age and local organisations within Bakewell and surrounding area. Members agree to contribute £10 in the event of the charity being wound up.

Trustees

The Trustees are charged with taking forward the management and maintenance of Bakewell Town Hall as a public asset managed and refurbished through a charitable organisation.

Under the Memorandum and Articles of Association one-third of the Directors are required to retire at each annual general meeting.

Trustee Induction and Training

All trustees have been provided with information packs on their roles and responsibilities and are encouraged to attend appropriate external training events.

Organisation

The Board of Trustees administers the Charity. It meets regularly and is supported by staff and volunteers.

Risk Management

The Trustees have recognised risks that the Charity may face in relation to the implementation of the business plan.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

The objects of the charity are:

TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT

YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

individuals and community groups who have need of such facilities by reason of their youth, age, infirmity, or disability, financial hardship or social circumstances with the object of improving their conditions of life.

The Main Objectives for 2022 were:

SUMMARY OF THE MAIN ACTIVITIES UNDERTAKEN FOR THE PUBLIC BENEFIT IN RELATION TO THESE OBJECTS

In planning our activities for the year we kept in mind the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit at our trustees meetings ensuring that an acceptable proportion of use is by community groups.

The membership of the Charity is open to all individuals irrespective of race, gender or any other personal circumstances.

ACTIVITIES AND ACHIEVEMENTS

Following the lifting of Government restrictions following ‘lockdown’ and its impact particularly on community groups it is pleasing to report a gradual return of our regular users over the year and the rebuilding of our own events programme which has been well supported. Looking to the future a number of possible activities are being explored. We can now offer catering for events as we have our own catering suppliers.

With regard to premises management, repairs and renewals have been undertaken as required and work in respect of statutory requirements such as upgrading to meet fire safety and electrical regulations has been undertaken. Further works are being planned subject to funding being available.

Staff changes have included the retirement of the Premises Supervisor after over 20 years’ service. His replacement joined us in July. We have also welcomed a new bookkeeper.

RISK MANAGEMENT

The Trustees recognise the risks in relation to implementation of the business plan as the Charity seeks to establish a firm financial base to meet its responsibility for the day-to-day management of the Town Hall and internal refurbishment:

FINANCIAL REVIEW.

In addition to membership fees, financial support has been received during this period from: Bakewell Town Council, the Derbyshire Foundation, and private donations. We continue to tightly control operating costs. Whilst considerable progress has been made in working towards a break-even position with grant-funding support, this was not achieved.

Major improvements currently being considered for implementation within the next two years will be dependent on external funding being obtained. Much emphasis is now being placed on marketing our rapidly improving facilities and developing new business opportunities.

PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS

The prime objective is to efficiently manage and develop facilities within the Town Hall for the benefit of the community as a whole. We are looking to develop stronger ties with local organisations and to ensure that the development meets their needs, and to establish best business practice in the management of the Trust’s activities and the employment and welfare responsibilities of our staff. Further external funding is being sought, and marketing and promotion activities are ongoing.

TRUSTEES RESPONSIBILITIES IN RELATION TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.4 Incoming resources

All incoming resources are included in the SOFA when the charity is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. Gifts in kind have been included at market value of gifts received and in assets acquired. No amounts are included in the financial statements for services donated by volunteers.

1.5 Resources expended

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings which aggregate all costs relating to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with use of the resources. Fund-raising costs are those incurred in seeking voluntary contributions and do not include the costs of disseminating information in the support of the charitable activities.

Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

1.9 Financial instruments

The charity has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.
