TRUSTEE'S REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2025
The Trustee present their annual report together with the financial statements of the Charity for the year 1 February 2024 to 31 January 2025.
Objectives and activities
a. Policies and objectives
The summary of the objects as set out in the constitution is to advance the Christian religion, and involve and strengthen community in all its diversity, primarily but not exclusively in the Bootle area of the borough of Sefton, by means of creative arts projects.
In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustee has given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance 'Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'.
b. Activities undertaken to achieve objectives
The main activities for the year were:
Following transforming a corridor of 11 unused and broken shop units into a performance space, we decorated it to become the Castle. We have used the Castle every Saturday to run free community events.
We ran our usual twice weekly paper-mache and sewing workshops with growing numbers. Bootle music zone continued as a weekly activity with between 15 and 20 students throughout the year. We started a new weekly drama workshop and a weekly reflection zone. We visited schools to deliver weekly assemblies acting out Bible stories and new Bootle Schools twice a term. We ran Bootle Strand Christmas Grotto again in 2023 and were part of the Bootle Strand Light Switch on Event. We also opened our Narnia Escape room and started developing a second one.
We have continued both our Bootle Strand Choir and Gospel Choir in Crosby.
In addition to the regular activities, we ran the Easter Experience in Bootle New Strand which was a walk through performance retelling the events that led to Jesus’ death and resurrection. We hosted Bootle Eurovision: Ukraine to UK and were very proud to be part of an event that helped show solidarity with Ukraine during this difficult time.

Achievements and performance
a. Main achievements of the Charity
We were very proud of transforming an unused space in the shopping centre into an exciting performance space and building the castle branding and awareness of our Saturday activities. We continued to see success through funding bids enabling us to keep a lot of our activities free. We have also been proud of continued partnership with the Cathedral for year 6 leavers services and Pentecost walk (after a couple of years disruption due to Covid), as well as Sefton CVS who we were commissioned by to make a lot of bunting for the Jubilee Celebrations. Hiring a part time events coordinator enabled us to expand our work and grow our social media presence over the year.
b. Key performance indicators
The charity is primarily focused on its objects and does not consider any financial performance indicator a key one. The charity needs to broadly run at a surplus each year to remain viable, but individual activities that run a deficit or an occasional yearly deficit is not a major factor to the charity. Indeed, in certain circumstances, it is necessary to run a deficit in order to further the charitable objects.
c. Review of activities
During the year, the charity undertook a number of activities as detailed above. A detailed description of the events and activities undertaken can be found at http://www.inanotherplace.com/

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustee of In Another Place ('the Charity')

Independent Examiner's Statement
Your attention is drawn to the fact that the Charity has prepared the accounts 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) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has been withdrawn.

-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or

the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.
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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2025
1. General information
The entity is an unincorporated charity, registered with the Charities Commission in England and Wales. The registered number and principal place of operations are noted within the first three pages of these financial statements.
2. Accounting policies
2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - 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 2022), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.
The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair' view. This departure has involved following the Charities SORP (FRS 102) published in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
In Another Place 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.
2.2 Going concern
The Charity has sufficient cash resources and has no requirement for external funding. The trustee has a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. They continue to believe the going concern basis of accounting appropriate in preparing the annual financial statements.
2.3 Income
All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of receipt. Although this is not strictly in accordance with the accruals basis of accounting, the value of Gift Aid claims is relatively small and the difference between a receipts basis and accruals basis is not materially different.
2.4 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Charity's objectives, as well as any associated support costs. All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.
2.5 Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the Charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the institution with whom the funds are deposited.

2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.6 Intangible assets and amortisation
Intangible assets costing £100 or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably. Intangible assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.
Amortisation is provided on intangible assets at rates calculated to write off the cost of each asset on a straight-line basis over its expected useful life.
Amortisation is provided on the following basis:
Computer software - 25 % straight line
2.7 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Tangible fixed assets costing £100 or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably. Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following bases:
Fixtures and fittings - between 3 and 5 years straight line
Computer equipment - between 3 and 4 years straight line
2.8 Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
2.9 Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
2.10 Liabilities and provisions
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably. Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.

2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.11 Financial instruments
The Charity only 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 with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
2.12 Pensions
The Charity contributes to personal pension plans and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the Charity to the plans in respect of the year.
2.13
Fund accounting
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustee in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Charity for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.

3. Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgment
Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
The Charity makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.
Critical areas of judgment:
The only areas of judgment are the rates of depreciation and amortisation.

No employee received remuneration amounting to more than £60,000 in either year.
12. Volunteers
The Charity relies heavily on volunteers, especially during the Major Events put on by the Charity. During these periods, volunteers numbering up to 100 people can be involved in a production, and an attempt to quantify the value of this time would be excessive and onerous.
Suffice to say that without the work of these volunteers, the Charity would be unable to put on the events it does.
13. Trustee's remuneration and expenses
During the year, no Trustees received any remuneration or other benefits (2024 - £NIL-) for their role as Trustee.
During the year ended 31 January 2025, expenses totalling £642 were reimbursed or paid directly to 1 Trustee (2024 - £Nil to 0 Trustee).
