Auckland Youth and Community Centre Limited Trusto08' Annual Report (Incorporating tho Directorfs Report) (continued) Yèar Ended 31 March 2025 Business Develo ment Introductlon and overview: 2024-25 has been a very difficult year for Auckland Youth and Community Centre Limited. The trustees have made some very hard decisions to protect the organisation's long-term viabilty. Before continuing. it is worth pausing for a moment to appreciate the hard work and commitment of the individuals, groups and partner organisations, far too many to mention, who have helped us to maintain a healthy position at the end of the financial year. Key Facts and Flgures: This year we have seen an 11Yo drop in our income to £381,063, which is mainly due to our decrease in grant funding for core activities. Our expenditure has also decreased to £383,619, which is 16Q/o less than last year, mainly due to S8ving8 made on salaries. The overall loss was £2,536 and much less than the predicted £114,174 mainly due to the decisions tsken, by the trustees in the first quarter of the financial year. Flnanclal Governance: We are pleased to report that due to crucial decisions taken by the 808rd of Trustees another good year of fi'nancial governance, which is, at least in part, the reason why we can report a healthy financial position thls year. Examples of good governance, overseen by AYCC'S Trustees and managers, include.. Ongoing scrutiny of our financial activities, for example reference to our financial policy, whilst regularly checking that the policy remains fit for purpose. Monthly meetings of our Finance Monitoring Group, chaired by our Company Secretary and Treasurer, to review the Centre's most significant grant applications, grant monitoring, evaluation and reporting; general fundraising progress; income generation planning which is supported by an in4epth spreadsheet of our grant pipeline,. and finally, any key issues that require resolution.

Detailed recording of progress through the grants plpeline, which is updated on an ongolng basis, with regular updates Issued to Trust8es. Staff Updat•8: As highlighted in last year's report our dIff￿ulty in securing core funding and by June 2024 the Board of Trustees had to make the difficult decision to make 2 members of staff of the core team redundant and reduce the hours of our centre administrator trom 35 hour per week to 23 hours. The Board of Trustees have taken on some of their duties and revised the charity's organisational chart to reflect no core team. We thank our staff for their hard work and dedication to the ￿ntre through thls very difficult time and We are happy to report the measures taken have been successful and kept the charity on track. Volunt•er Coordlnator: The volunteer coordinator came into post with funding from Community Foundation Tyne and Wear in November 2022. Further funding to continue the programme from November 2023 was secur&d from the National Lottery's Know Your Neighbourhood Fund. One of the first priorities of the post was to begin tracking volunteers, contribution to the organisation and the financial year 24125 was the second full year of data collected to demonstrate how many hours were contributed by the volunteers. This post's funding ended In March 2025 and It was agreed not to continue with the post and volunteers at the centre have been mentored by our staff members and the feedback on this is very positive. We encourage more people to join us and get involved in many activities.

Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date. For the purposes of impairment testing, when it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an individual asset, an estimate is made of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unlt is the smallest idents'fiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that largely independent of the cash inffows from other assets or groups of assets. For impairment testing of goodwill, the goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the charity are assigned to those units. Flnanclal In6trum•nts The charity only has financial assets and liabilities of a kind that qualify as baslc financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value. Deflned Contrlbutlon Plans Contributions to defined contribution plans Sre recognised as an expense in the period in which the related service is provided. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that the prepayment will lead to a reduction in future payments or a cash refund. lthen contributions are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the end of the reporting date in which the employees render the related service, the liability is rneasured on a discounted present value basls. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as an expense in the period in which it arises. 17-

Cash at Bank and In Hand Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three month8 or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account. Credltor8 Creditors are recognised where the charlty has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
