  13. Chairs Report: Another busy year, We have yet another new contact at the Council regarding the building/rent as Mary Moses has left, We now deal with Callum Coebil, who is just as tricky to get a response from, and we have on going repairs that need doing. We asked for a rent reduction as we felt the increase was too high, they gave us a flat out no.. We tried getting support from the Mayors office, but again no real help, he just referred us back to them.

    • We had a no from the council and the insurance company regarding replacing the creche food that was damaged with the water/pipes leaking, so we are looking at alternative funders for this, again this is tricky as funding sources are drying up.

We were successful in gaining another 12 months support from NHS GHIN fund to continue to offer Mental health support to local young parents for free, again using Kate Choppen from Black dog therapy.

We gained funding from Children in need to offer breakfast and lunch clubs to our families, these are very well received and attended and give struggling families 2 meals a day helping to ease financial burden in these increasingly difficult financial times. We are seeing cost of living increases even further and food bills are soaring.

We had successful bids from Florence Turner, Sir Andrew Martin Trust, Skipton Charitable foundation, Blaby district council and LCC ward grant. We continue to apply to various sources and attend meetings/events and forums to continue to address local needs and meet demand, network and build professional relationships.

We have been working closely with the ladies at Dorcas and freedom for girls, accessing their FGM training and resources for our young parents, we have looked at possibilities for collaboration regarding funding and will continue to explore that.

We had an issue with rats getting into the building, and had ( after much nagging ) had repairs carried out to drainage to sort this out.

We held a number of trips, mainly to local parks and events over the summer these were well attended and delivered safely.

Jamie Wentworth joined us in September as an admin assistant and left us in April for an apprenticeship opportunity, we wish him all the best.

We had a staff Christmas breakfast at Palmers, and swapped secret santa gifts.

Leicestershire cares donated some christmas gifts to us for our families which was wonderful, and also Gaz Varney, who does local charity work donated selection boxes for our children, and a local Wacky warehouse donated some some toys too.

We made the decision to stop accessing Care to Learn funding which paid for childcare costs and overheads for our learners, as they have changed their criteria and we can no longer fit this/tick their boxes. We may look at this in the future for different services.

Funding continues to be very difficult to secure, we are waiting for decisions from National lottery Million hours fund and also HSF7 funding and are confident these may be successful.

Big thanks to the staff team and Committee members for their continued support.

  1. Creche Managers Report. We have had numerous staff changes over the year, Katie Moult rejoined us, as a sessional/volunteer and it’s been great to have her back, Sue Jarvis joined us a sessional/volunteer and was a great addition, she hand crocheted and donated some beautiful blankets to use in the creche, which we have since distributed them to our families who were very happy with them.

After many years of working with us and being a valued member of the team Kelly Marshall left us for pastures new, we will miss her and wish her all the best.

Soon after this Leanne Mcmanus followed Kelly in leaving us to work at a pre school and again we wish her well.

This has allowed us to Promote Olivia Peake to Creche manager, as she has now gained a distinction in her Early years Educator level 3 qualification. Olivia is well suited to the role, helping the creche achieve its full potential moving forwards, Olivia has lots of ideas and brings a fresh energy to the setting.

Gaining the Children in Need funding to offer breakfast and lunch clubs was a challenge but has been very successful, this means disadvantaged young families benefit from 2 meals a day when they are with us,helping to ease financial pressures and reduce stress, parents are involved in preparing and planning the meals encouraging new skills and helping them have the confidence and nutrition knowledge to provide quality, low cost meals at home too.

We had lots of trips to the summer, local parks and city children’s events meant we could keep costs very low, we provide snacks/drink and suncream to help support families further, these were very well attended and lots of fun. We applied to Ofsted to move from the Voluntary register to the Early years register, and so needed various items/equipment and to change the layout in the creche. This was to try to fit new criteria to enable us to continue to access care to learn funding for our learners, but as time went on it was decided we couldn’t fit the Care to Learn criteria fully with their new guidelines and so we have decided to remain on the voluntary register for the time being.

Should we decide to access FEE funded places in the future we will look at this again, we had advice from the lovely ladies at our local EED team and will continue to link with them for advice/support and training opportunities. Over christmas we decided to have tea parties daily rather than one big one, this was much more relaxed, and staff found it easier to organise/deliver. Presents were well received and were donated by a range of other charities. At easter we had Freedom for girls and also Zinthia trust donate lots of easter eggs for our families, these were very gratefully received. A big thank you to all the organisations and individuals who donate gifts to us for our families. So again, another busy eventful year with all the usual funding challenges, we continue to work hard as a team to provide the best services and support that we can.

Notes to the financial statements Year ended 31 March 2024

1. General information

The company is a private company limited by guarantee, registered in England. The address of the registered office is 9 Cantrell Road, Leicester, LE3 1SD.

2. Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with the provisions of FRS 102, Section 1A, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'.

3. Accounting policies

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through profit or loss.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.

Turnover

Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for goods supplied and services rendered, net of discounts and Value Added Tax.

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the buyer (usually on despatch of the goods); the amount of revenue can be measured reliably; it is probable that the associated economic benefits will flow to the entity; and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transactions can be measured reliably.

Taxation

The taxation expense represents the aggregate amount of current and deferred tax recognised in the reporting period. Tax is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in capital and reserves. In this case, tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in capital and reserves, respectively. Current tax is recognised on taxable profit for the current and past periods. Current tax is measured at the amounts of tax expected to pay or recover using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences at the reporting date. Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.

Angels and Monsters Ltd Company limited by guarantee

Notes to the financial statements (continued) Year ended 31 March 2024

Tangible assets

Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and are subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

Any tangible assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

An increase in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of a revaluation, is recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in capital and reserves, except to the extent it reverses a revaluation decrease of the same asset previously recognised in profit or loss. A decrease in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of revaluation is recognised in other comprehensive income to the extent of any previously recognised revaluation increase accumulated in capital and reserves in respect of that asset. Where a revaluation decrease exceeds the accumulated revaluation gains accumulated in capital and reserves in respect of that asset, the excess shall be recognised in profit or loss.

Depreciation

Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:

Short leasehold property - 20% straight line
Fittings fixtures and equipment - 25% straight line

If there is an indication that there has been a significant change in depreciation rate, useful life or residual value of tangible assets, the depreciation is revised prospectively to reflect the new estimates.

Impairment

A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date.

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 unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.

Stocks

Stocks are measured at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost includes all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the stocks to their present location and condition.

Angels and Monsters Ltd Company limited by guarantee

Notes to the financial statements (continued) Year ended 31 March 2024

Financial instruments

A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where it is recognised at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.

Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost.

Where investments in non-convertible preference shares and non-puttable ordinary shares or preference shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise be measured reliably, the investment is subsequently measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss. All other such investments are subsequently measured at cost less impairment.

Other financial instruments, including derivatives, are initially recognised at fair value, unless payment for an asset is deferred beyond normal business terms or financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate, in which case the asset is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.

Other financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, with any changes recognised in profit or loss, with the exception of hedging instruments in a designated hedging relationship.

Financial assets that are measured at cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective evidence of impairment at the end of each reporting date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately.

For all equity instruments regardless of significance, and other financial assets that are individually significant, these are assessed individually for impairment. Other financial assets or either assessed individually or grouped on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics.

Any reversals of impairment are recognised in profit or loss immediately, to the extent that the reversal does not result in a carrying amount of the financial asset that exceeds what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment not previously been recognised.

Defined contribution plans

Contributions to defined contribution plans are 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.

When 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 measured on a discounted present value basis. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in finance costs in profit or loss in the period in which it arises.

4. Limited by guarantee

Mrs J L Wentworth and Mrs C L Gray are the subscriber members of the company which is limited by guarantee. In the event of the company being wound up each member is subject to a guaranteed contribution of £10 each.

5. Employee numbers

The average number of persons employed by the company during the year amounted to 8 (2023: 9).

Notes to the financial statements Year ended 31 March 2024

1. General information

The company is a private company limited by guarantee, registered in England. The address of the registered office is 9 Cantrell Road, Leicester, LE3 1SD.

2. Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with the provisions of FRS 102, Section 1A, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'.

3. Accounting policies

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through profit or loss.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.

Turnover

Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for goods supplied and services rendered, net of discounts and Value Added Tax.

Revenue from the sale of goods is recognised when the significant risks and rewards of ownership have transferred to the buyer (usually on despatch of the goods); the amount of revenue can be measured reliably; it is probable that the associated economic benefits will flow to the entity; and the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transactions can be measured reliably.

Taxation

The taxation expense represents the aggregate amount of current and deferred tax recognised in the reporting period. Tax is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in capital and reserves. In this case, tax is recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in capital and reserves, respectively. Current tax is recognised on taxable profit for the current and past periods. Current tax is measured at the amounts of tax expected to pay or recover using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the reporting date.

Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences at the reporting date. Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference.

Notes to the financial statements (continued) Year ended 31 March 2024

Tangible assets

Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and are subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

Any tangible assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

An increase in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of a revaluation, is recognised in other comprehensive income and accumulated in capital and reserves, except to the extent it reverses a revaluation decrease of the same asset previously recognised in profit or loss. A decrease in the carrying amount of an asset as a result of revaluation is recognised in other comprehensive income to the extent of any previously recognised revaluation increase accumulated in capital and reserves in respect of that asset. Where a revaluation decrease exceeds the accumulated revaluation gains accumulated in capital and reserves in respect of that asset, the excess shall be recognised in profit or loss.

Depreciation

Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:

Short leasehold property - 20% straight line
Fittings fixtures and equipment - 25% straight line

If there is an indication that there has been a significant change in depreciation rate, useful life or residual value of tangible assets, the depreciation is revised prospectively to reflect the new estimates.

Impairment

A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date.

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 unit is the smallest identifiable group of assets that includes the asset and generates cash inflows that are largely independent of the cash inflows from other assets or groups of assets.

Stocks

Stocks are measured at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost includes all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the stocks to their present location and condition.

Notes to the financial statements (continued) Year ended 31 March 2024

Financial instruments

A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the company becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the transaction price, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where it is recognised at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.

Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost.

Where investments in non-convertible preference shares and non-puttable ordinary shares or preference shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise be measured reliably, the investment is subsequently measured at fair value with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss. All other such investments are subsequently measured at cost less impairment.

Other financial instruments, including derivatives, are initially recognised at fair value, unless payment for an asset is deferred beyond normal business terms or financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate, in which case the asset is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.

Other financial instruments are subsequently measured at fair value, with any changes recognised in profit or loss, with the exception of hedging instruments in a designated hedging relationship.

Financial assets that are measured at cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective evidence of impairment at the end of each reporting date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss immediately.

For all equity instruments regardless of significance, and other financial assets that are individually significant, these are assessed individually for impairment. Other financial assets or either assessed individually or grouped on the basis of similar credit risk characteristics.

Any reversals of impairment are recognised in profit or loss immediately, to the extent that the reversal does not result in a carrying amount of the financial asset that exceeds what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment not previously been recognised.

Defined contribution plans

Contributions to defined contribution plans are 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.

When 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 measured on a discounted present value basis. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in finance costs in profit or loss in the period in which it arises.

4. Limited by guarantee
