INTRODUCTION

Aims/objectives

The aim is to improve social welfare through developing public amenities, increasing educational opportunities, particularly through the arts, and by preserving buildings of historical importance.

Structure, governance and management

MoorEnd Development Trust was set up by local people in March 2003 and is registered as a Company Limited by Guarantee: it is also a registered charity. The Trust is owned by the members, all residents, businesses or community & voluntary groups within the four wards of Pennines Township – Wardle & West Littleborough, Milnrow & Newhey, Smallbridge & Firgrove and Littleborough Lakeside. Membership numbers some 200 people, including businesses, individuals, community groups and other bodies.

As laid down in the Memorandum of Association, the Company's objects are:-

The members democratically set the direction for the Trust at the Annual General Meeting.

PROJECT REPORTS

MoorEnd Development Trust

The Trust at its Annual general meeting held on the 25[th] October 2021 raised the possibility of moving to become a Charitable Incorporated Organisation. It was agreed that the Management Committee would explore the option further and bring a further report to the next AGM.

Butterworth Hall Community Centre

Butterworth Hall re-opened its doors on the 12[th] of April 2021. Bookings where slow with only the dance class, Karate club, Milnrow Art, Weight Watchers and Slimming world groups returning.

In May the Tai Chi group returned, and the Hall was opened as polling station for the local council elections. In June the Foster Carers group and Zumba classes returned.

By September Milnrow Amateur Dramatic, Yoga, Brownies and Guides had also returned giving us a full house once again.

As we entered in to 2022 the Hall was working at full strength which included families booking Birthday Parties and a variety of charity events.

Pennines and Tim Bobbin Festival

The Trust celebrated Lancashire Day on Saturday 27[th] November by raising the Lancashire Flag and a reading of the proclamation at Dale Street Gardens, Milnrow in the presence of the Mayor of Rochdale, Councillor Aasim Rashid.

Hare Hill House

The House re-opened to the public following the lifting of restrictions in August 2021. The “Blokes” weekly get together recommenced on the 4[th] August; our first hiring of space to an external organisation took place on the 6th August; Meet Up our luncheon club for the elderly and isolated recommenced on the 17[th] August and the weekly Art for All returned on the 19[th] August. However, it was only in September that some of our former users began to take tentative steps to return.

We held our first public event on 2[nd] October, a McMillan Coffee morning. As the year progressed additional groups began to make bookings. In November 2021 the Littleborough Alcoholics Anonymous relocated to the House for their weekly meetings. It was not until 2022 that bookings began to increase for one off events and workshops and by June 2022 bookings were back to pre-pandemic levels giving the trust confidence to continue progressing the project.

We were fortunate and thankful that most of our tenants continued to occupy space within the house throughout the pandemic despite the restrictions imposed both nationally and regionally. We also welcomed 3 new tenants in July and September 2021, ensuring all available spaces were fully occupied.

The draft lease for the property remains under negotiation and with the increasing fuel prices we continue to monitor our proposed Business Plan for the project.

The Trust applied to the newly opened Communities Opportunity Fund in August 2021 and again in Round 1B in January 2022 for funding to undertake a full re-roofing of the building. Both applications were unsuccessful, and we await the announcement of further application windows. However, the Trust did secure funding offers towards the cost of the works from the Crook Hill Community Windfarm in May 2022 and from Pennines Township Committee in April 2022.

Pennines Business and Tourism Forum

Because of having had no meetings or events as a result of the Covid Pandemic, the Trust took the opportunity to reflect upon the format of the Forum and its activities. It was decided that the trust would consult members and stakeholders on whether and if supported how the Forum should move forward. It was agreed that a consultation exercise be prepared.

PEOPLE

The Management Committee/Board of the Trust have spaces for 17 directors: there are currently 6 vacancies: Irene Davidson Chairperson & Butterworth Hall Project Champion Bryan Tenny Resigned 11[th] April 2022 Nicholas Andrews Treasurer & Hare Hill House Champion George Caygill David Harding Peter Hook Resigned 22[nd] November 2022 Pauline Mitchell Resigned 7[th] March 2022 Rob Mitchell Resigned 26[th] July 2021 John Stanley Kenneth Griffin Appointed 28[th] February 2022 Pat Houghton Appointed 22[nd] November 2022 John Hartley Appointed 4[th] July 2022 Councillor Tom Besford Appointed 4[th] July 2022 Pennines Township Committee nominee Eddie Coan Appointed 22[nd] November 2022

The Trust has 217 members comprising community & voluntary groups, businesses and individuals. Inclusion of local groups and societies means that the Trust has a sound basis in representing the aims and wishes of local people. The Trust employs no staff.

Public Benefit

Our activities have delivered public benefit by complying with the company’s objectives as laid down in its Memorandum of Association. Specifically by providing communal facilities, preserving an historic building and maintaining cultural traditions.

The trustees have regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit, and discuss this at our trustees meetings where we plan and make decisions for the carrying out of our activities to which the guidance is relevant.

TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT continued

YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022

The trustees and directors for the purposes of company law, present their annual report and the unaudited financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30 June 2022.

The Board have adopted the provision of the Charities SORP (FRS 102) – Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended practice applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (effective 1 January 2015, and including update bulletins on 2 February 2016 and 5 October 2018) in preparing the annual report and financial statements of the charity. The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 2006.

The trustees (who are also directors of Moorend Development Trust Ltd for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and with the provision for small companies.

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources.

In preparing the financial statements, the directors are required to:

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

In so far as the trustees are aware:

The report of the members of the board were approved by the Board on the 27[th] of February 2023 and signed on their behalf;

MOOREND DEVELOPMENT TRUST LIMITED

REPORT TO THE MEMBERS ON THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF MOOREND DEVELOPMENT TRUST LIMITED

YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022

I report on the accounts for the year ended 30 June 2022 set out on pages 11 to 18.

Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner

The charity’s trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (the 2006 Act). The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under s144 (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:

Basis of Independent Examiners Opinion

My examination was carried out in accordance with 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 of 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 I do not express an opinion 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 Examiners 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:

  2. To keep accounting records in accordance with s386 of the Companies Act 2006; and

  3. To prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to 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

  4. 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 accounting

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 (FRS102) issued on 16 July 2014 (as updated through Update Bulletin 1 published on 2 February 2016 and also Update Bulletin 2 published on 5 October 2018) – (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

Incoming Resources

All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income.

Grants are credited to revenue on a receivable basis, and Rental Income and Donations are accounted for as received by the charity. All income is allocated to appropriate funds based on the income, and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.

Restricted funds are to be used for specified purposes as laid down by the donor. Expenditure which meets these criteria’s is identified to the fund, together with a fair allocation of overheads and support costs.

Unrestricted funds are donations and other incoming resources received or generated for charitable purposes.

Resources Expended

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis.

All expenses including support costs and governance costs are allocated or apportioned to applicable expenditure headings.

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 settlement will be required, and the amount for the obligation can be measured reliably.

Cash flow statement

The trustees have taken advantage of the exemption in Financial Reporting Standard No 1 (revised) from including a cash flow statement in the financial statements on the grounds that the company is small.

Fixed assets

Land and Buildings – measured at fair value. Furniture and Equipment – initially recorded at cost and depreciated at 20% on a reducing balance basis.
