However, there is a recurring dependence on bid-writing and fundraising that is a constant demand on resources in a climate of increasing competition on diminishing funds.

Close House Projects
The report of the trustees for the year ended 31 March 2021
An explanation of the charity's main objectives for the year.
We continue to provide drop-in social support and Youth Work from Close House, the former vicarage of St Peters. We use the building, and occasionally church space, as a base for activities and Youth Volunteering projects across the city.
An explanation of the charity's strategies for achieving its stated objectives.
Close House will continue to offer safe, social meeting spaces for young people, together with a range of activities decided upon by the young people. Our work will be carried out in the city centre and at in a number of different community spaces. We will continue to develop the range of projects as the need arises.
The Charity's grant making policies
The charity does not make grants to other charities or organisations.
The contribution of volunteers
The Charity has a governing board of 7 trustees who are also directors of the company, all of whom are volunteers, and utilises the services of several volunteers at any one time on a regular basis, some of whom are involved on training schemes.
Investment performance achieved against investment objectives set
We have been able to successfully build reserves to give ourselves a healthy start for the coming year, and the local community and local Charitable Trusts are to be thanked for this, alongside the hard work of the youth workers who achieve the targets set by their respective funders.
Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year
The year of lockdowns was a difficult time for all drop-in centres, Close House included. The volunteer team rose to the occasion with pioneering social media content, outreach projects, community volunteering and care package deliveries. The wider Close House team, The EPICs and the Youth Council carried on as best they could to preserve the spirit of Close House Projects through a challenging, once-in-a-lifetime season. Our years of careful financial management provided the necessary reserves to weather the lockdown storm, and enabled the team to reach hundreds of young people in new ways, and support scores of community events and groups through 20/21. We look forward to a return of our Drop-in Service in 21/22 through the Talk Communities and Holidays, Activities and Food programmes. We extend thanks to Dan Robertson, alongside all of our Directors and Trustees past-and-present, who have helped to keep the ship afloat for so many years.

Structure, Governance and Management
Nature of the Governing Document and constitution of the charity
Close House Projects is established as a Company limited by guarantee and is registered as a Charity within the Charity Commission. The affairs of the Company are governed by its’ Memorandum and Articles of Association. The liability of the members in the event of the Company being wound up is limited to a sum not exceeding £10.00.
The methods adopted for the recruitment and appointment of new trustees
The existing directors recommend new directors for appointment by the board at the company’s general meetings. The board appoint directors who can provide specific skills and knowledge to the company to enable the furtherance of its charitable objectives. No director receives any remuneration or reimbursement of any expenses. Prospective directors are provided with details of the company’s objectives, their legal obligations under company law and charitable law and what their role as director will entail prior to any appointment being made.
The organisational structure of the charity and how decisions are made.
The Directors of the charitable company have appointed a Chairman to control and review the company’s management structure. The management structure controls and manages the activities of each of the charity's current projects.
The systems of internal control operated by the company are designed to provide reasonable,but not absolute, assurance against material misstatement or loss. These include:
1) Annual budgets approved by the Board
-
2) Regular consideration by both the Board and senior management of financial results, variances from budgets and other financial and non-financial indicators
-
3) Delegation of authority and segregation of duties
-
4) Identification and management of risks
The major risks to which the charity is exposed and reviews and systems to mitigate risks
The major risks to which the charity is exposed, as identified by the trustees, have been reviewed and systems have been established to manage those risks.
Financial Review
Policies on reserves
The directors have reviewed the reserves of the company. The review encompassed the nature of the income and expenditure streams, the existing contractual arrangements and the work undertaken, together with the need to match variable income with fixed commitments. The review concluded that to allow the company to be managed effectively and to provide a buffer for uninterrupted services, a general Unrestricted Funds reserve equivalent to six months of normal expenditure costs should be maintained, this is around £54,000 (2020 £54,000). The general Unrestricted Funds reserve at 31st March 2021 amounted to £84,919 (2020: £51,778) which is a significant improvement on previous years, and with expected income for 21/22 is an ample level of reserves.
Availability and adequacy of assets of each of the funds
The board of trustees is satisfied that the charity's assets in each fund are available and adequate to fulfil its obligations in respect of each fund.

Statement of Directors' and Trustees' Responsibilities
The Charities Acts and the Companies Acts require the Board of Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity as at the end of the financial year and of the surplus or deficit of the charity. In preparing those financial statements the Board is required to :-
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe methods and principles in the Charities SORP
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
-
state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed , subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
The Trustees are also responsible for maintaining adequate accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which are sufficient to show and explain the charity's transactions and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2011 and comply with regulations made under the Charity (Accounts and Reports Regulations) 2008. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The trustees are also responsible for the contents of the trustees' report.
Method of preparation of accounts
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with FRS 102, The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (as applied to small entities by section 1A of the standard).
This report was approved by the board of trustees on 10 December 2021.

Close House Projects Independent Accountant's Report
Independent Examiners Report to the trustees
on the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 March 2021
I report on the financial statements of the charity on pages 8 to 21 which have been prepared in accordance with the FRS 102, The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (as applied to small entities by section 1A of the standard)., as modified by the 2011 Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting issued by the Charity Commissioners for England & Wales, under the historical cost convention and the accounting policies set out on 13.
Respective responsibilities of directors and accountant
The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity - Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention
Basis of independent examiner’s report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions 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 you as 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 next statement.
Independent examiner’s statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
• to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006 and
• to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the
Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities have not been met or
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached

1 Accounting policies
Basis of preparation of the accounts
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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 2015) (as applied to small entities by section 1A of the standard) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s).
Advantage has been taken of Section 396(5) of The Companies Act 2006 to allow the format of the financial statements to be adapted to reflect the special nature of the charity's operation and in order to comply with the requirements of the SORP.
The particular accounting policies adopted are set out below.
Accounting convention
The financial statements are prepared,on a going concern basis, under the historical cost convention.
Income recognition
Income is accounted for on a receivable basis deferred as described below where appropriate.
Income includes grant income and all other income relating to the company’s operations including donations, statutory funding and fund-raising. Grants received are allocated equally over the periods to which they relate.
Investment Income
Bank Interest received is included on an actual receipts basis.
Deferred income
In accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting issued by the Charity Commissioners for England & Wales grants received in advance and specified by the donor as relating to specific accounting periods or alternatively which are subject to conditions which are still to be met, and which are outside the control of the charity or where it is uncertain whether the conditions can or will be met, are deferred on an accruals basis to the period to which they relate. Such deferrals are shown in the notes to the accounts and the sums involvedare shown as creditors in the accounts.
13
Close House Projects Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2021
Recognition of liabilities
Liabilities are recognised on the accruals basis in accordance with normal accounting principles, modified where necessary in accordance with the guidance given in the Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting issued by the Charity Commissioners for England & Wales .
Expenditure recognition
The policy for including items within the relevant activity categories of expenes is accounted for on an accruals basis.
In particular the policy for including items within costs of generating funds, charitable activities and governance costs is:
Costs of generating funds
There are no costs that are attributable to the generating of funds.
Charitable activities
Charitable expenditure shall include all expenditure directly related to the objects of the charity including the following :
Activities in furtherance of the charity's objectives
The cost of goods and services that have been incurred in charitable activities.
Governance costs
Governance costs shall include all expenditure directly related to the administration of the charity including expenditure incurred in the management of the charity's assets, organisational administration and compliance with charitable and statutory requirements.
Allocation of costs within types of resources expended
The methods and principles for the allocation and apportionment of all costs between the different activity categories of resources set out above are :
There are a number of costs, including staffing costs, where it is impracticable to allocate these costs precisely between administration and charitable expenditure and the trustees have allocated such costs on the basis of reasonable estimates as follows :
Staffing costs and related expenses
On the basis of salary costs, and an estimate of hours spent on different activities. The salary and pension costs of the Manager and Secretary are shared equally between Charitable and Activities. The Trustee's believe this provides a true reflection of the costs incurred.
Unrealised and realised gains
Realised gains and losses are included in the accounts on the date at which a contractual obligation is entered into.
Unrealised gains and losses are computed by reference to the market value of the investments at the balance sheet date, compared to the brought forward cost or valuation, and gains and losses arising on similar categories of investments are netted off.
14
Close House Projects Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2021
Fixed assets and depreciation
Furniture and equipment purchased is written off in the year of acquisition.
Taxation
As a registered charity, the company is exempt from income and corporation tax to the extent that its income and gains are applicable to charitable purposes only. Value Added Tax is not recoverable by the company , and is therefore included in the relevant costs in the Statement of Financial Activities .
Fund accounting
The charity maintains a general unrestricted fund which represents funds which are expendable at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the objects of the charity. Such funds may be held in order to finance both working capital and capital investment.
Restricted funds have been provided to the charity for particular purposes, and it is the policy of the board of trustees to carefully the monitor the application of those funds in accordance with the restrictions placed upon them.
There is no formal policy of transfer between funds or on the allocation of funds to designated funds, other than that described above.
Any other proposed transfer between funds would be considered on the particular circumstances.
Recognition of pension costs and pension assets and liabilities
The Charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions are charged to the profit and loss account as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the scheme.
Treatment of exceptional items
2 Winding up or dissolution of the charity
