REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

The Trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2022. The Trustees’ report also represents the Directors’ report as required by Company Law. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policy set out in the note to the financial statements. The annual report complies with the charity’s governing document, the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 and the Trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their financial statement in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019) the Charity SORP (FRS 102)’.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

Having due regard to public benefit, Active Communities Network (ACN) is a Sport for Development charity committed to the use and promotion of sports, arts and cultural activities to improve youth citizenship, social inclusion and community cohesion in the UK and overseas.

Significant activities

Like any charity, ACN must work in an ever changing social, economic and political environment, whilst ensuring our programmes and services remain sustainable and deliver the highest quality outcomes for our users. The year was significantly impacted by the effects, continuation and adverse effects of the Covid-19 pandemic. ACN continues to adapt to the challenge and liaise with and worked alongside funders to deliver quality projects via alternative methods ensuring the needs of young people were still met. Responding to these challenges has resulted in the charity delivering the following significant activities:

Frontline Projects: Delivering youth and sports engagement services in areas of high deprivation and youth crime, focusing on London, Manchester, Belfast and Portsmouth/Havant. We continue to deliver much of these services via digital means due to the pandemic Plan is to adapt and move towards face to face when the Covid 19 restrictions lift fully.

Training and Citizenship: Through our learning centre we deliver personal development, vocational training and accredited courses to national standards 1 & 2, and support participants to utilise those skills through social action projects that benefit the wider community.

Workforce Development: The strength of ACN lies within its staff, whether full - time, part - time or volunteer, many of whom come from the very communities in which we work and in many cases through our own programmes. We invest in our staff through on-going training and professional development and ensure that core team members are multi-skilled. All our full - time staff are qualified in at least two of the following three vocational areas - Sports' Coaching, Youth and Community Work and/or Education and Lifelong Leaming. We also offer training to like-minded organisations in the UK and Ireland, and globally via an International Development Manager.

Partnership Programming: We have a firm belief in the value of networks and joint working. In this way we can maximise the impact of funding, avoid duplication and provide a wider range of services to our communities. Partnerships also mean specialist services can be provided within a wider supportive framework of activity to support the most vulnerable in our society. As the geographic reach of ACN has expanded, so too has our need for strong, reliable partners who share our vision and values. This applies to our delivery, funding and strategic partners across all regions and areas of our work.

Research and Evaluation: We understand that funders, partners and project staff need to ensure that programmes are practical, cost effective and achieve results. ACN has adopted an online monitoring and evaluation framework developed specifically to reflect our programmes, to provide us with evidence to demonstrate a range of outputs. To complement this evidence base, we implement independent evaluations that provide qualitative reports on outcomes, methodologies, best practice and recommendations.

Promoting a mixed economy: ACN has adopted a 'mixed economy' approach to our work to ensure we are not overly reliant on a single funding system. Private sector partnerships, grant making trusts, statutory sector and government grants, social enterprise activity and fundraising events are all key components of our financial structure.

Public benefit

The trustees/directors have complied with the duty in section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Charitable activities

Volunteers

ACN benefits greatly from the commitment and support of 790 volunteers and their contribution is gratefully acknowledged. The contributions of volunteers have been excluded from the Statement of Financial Activities as the value of their contribution to the charity cannot be reasonably quantified in financial terms. Although during this financial year the numbers for Volunteers dropped, due to the restrictions surrounding Covid 19, the commitment and support from the vast number of volunteers allowed ACN to continue with the much-needed services and frontline projects which benefit the participants and the wider community.

Principal achievements have been: -

2021-22 has been a challenging time for both our organisation and the wider sector as a combination of austerity measures in local authorities, uncertainty over the impact of Brexit, cuts in private sector sponsorship and the significant adverse impact the Covid-19 pandemic continues to have on the sector, participants, and the wider community. Despite this backdrop, the charity has undertaken a series of steps to promote the development of the Charity in the financial year and have a strong platform to continue into 2022-23.

Principal achievements have been: -

DCMS - Sports Meets Arts.

Finance and Risk subgroup well established and implemented.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

FINANCIAL REVIEW Reserves policy

Introduction

The Charity Commission recognises the need for charities to hold sufficient reserves to secure their viability beyond the immediate future and to protect themselves against future uncertainties. It recommends that charities should be able to demonstrate, by reference to the charity's current position and prospects, why holding a particular level of reserves is right for the charity at the present time. Responsibility for establishing an appropriate reserves policy lies with the trustees of the charity.

The charity's reserves are allocated to two different types of funds in its financial statements:

Restricted funds

These funds relate to unspent money from grants and other incoming sources where the funder has specified what the money must be spent on, and the trustees do not have the power to use the funds for other purposes. The level of restricted funds as at the end of the year was £650,502 (2021: £476,265).

Unrestricted funds

These funds relate to unspent money from grants and other incoming sources where the funder has not specified what the money should be spent on thereby granting the trustees full control to spend on general activities which further the objectives of the charity. The level of unrestricted funds as at the end of the year was £117,778 (2021: £90,475).

Reasons for Unrestricted funds

The organisation's balance of unrestricted funds is built up for three main reasons: a) operational contingency b) innovation and change and c) upfront investment resulting in social returns and future cost synergies.

Unrestricted reserves may be needed to provide cover and security in the following specific events:

Policy and procedures

The trustees have reviewed the level of reserves needed by the charity and agreed that:

Reserves review

The level of reserves will be reviewed annually by the trustees, and charity's financial position will be monitored by the trustees on a regular basis (unless financial circumstances require a more urgent change).

As at 31/03/2022, the restricted fund stood at £650,502 (2021: £476,265).

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

The trustees (who are also the directors of Active Communities Network Limited for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) including Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland".

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, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees 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 charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the 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:

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF ACTIVE COMMUNITIES NETWORK LIMITED

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Active Communities Network Limited (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 31 March 2022 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Cash Flow Statement and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'.

In our opinion the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon.

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Report of the Trustees.

Page 8

����������������������������������������������������������

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF ACTIVE COMMUNITIES NETWORK LIMITED

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

We designed procedures in line with our responsibilities outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud.

We identified areas of laws and regulations that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the financial statements from our: general commercial and sector experience; through verbal and written communications with those charged with governance and other management; and via inspection of the company's regulatory and legal correspondence.

We discussed with those charged with governance and other management the policies and procedures regarding compliance with laws and regulations.

We communicated identified laws and regulations to our team and remained alert to any indicators of non-compliance throughout the audit, we also specifically considered where and how fraud may occur within the company.

The potential effect of these laws and regulations on the financial statements varies considerably. Firstly, the company is subject to laws and regulations that directly affect the financial statements, including: the company's constitution, relevant financial reporting standards; company law; tax legislation and distributable profits legislation and we assess the extent of compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our procedures on the related financial statement items.

Secondly the company is subject to many other laws and regulations where the consequences of non-compliance could have a material effect on the amounts or disclosures in the financial statements, for instance through the imposition of fines and penalties, or through losses arising from litigations. We identified the following areas as those most likely to have such an effect: laws and regulations relevant to an FCA regulated company; employment legislation; health and safety legislation; anti money laundering regulations, data protection legislation; anti-bribery and corruption legislation.

International Auditing Standards (UK) limit the required procedures to identify non-compliance with these laws and regulations, and no procedures over and above those already noted are required. These limited procedures did not identify any actual or suspected non-compliance with laws and regulations that could have a material impact on the financial statements.

Page 9

����������������������������������������������������������

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF ACTIVE COMMUNITIES NETWORK LIMITED

These procedures did not identify any actual or suspected fraudulent irregularity that could have a material impact on the financial statements.

Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with International Auditing Standards UK). For example, the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely the procedures that we are required to undertake would identify it. In addition, as with any audit, there remains a high risk of non-detection of irregularities, as these might involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentation, or the override of internal controls. We are not responsible for preventing non-compliance with laws and regulations or fraud and cannot be expected to detect non-compliance with all laws and regulations or every incidence of fraud.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors' report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and the charitable company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

ACTIVE COMMUNITIES NETWORK LIMITED

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their financial statement in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019) – (Charity SORP (FRS 102)), The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

Active Communities Network Limited meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the Charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

Preparation of the financial statements on a going concern basis

The financial statements are drawn up on the going concern basis which assumes Active Communities Network will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The Board of Trustees have given due consideration to the working capital and cash flow requirements of Active Communities Network. The Board of Trustees consider Active Communities Network's current and forecast cash resources to be sufficient to cover the working capital requirements of the charity for at least 12 months from the date of signing the financial statements.

Having made their assessment the Trustees consider that there is no material uncertainty regarding the going concern status of the charity.

Income

Income Recognition

All income is included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when the charity is legally entitled to it, receipt is probable, and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability.

Donations and Grants

Donation and grants which have the characteristics of a gift are recognised immediately on receipt. This is unless there are time constraints imposed by the donor or conditions or terms are imposed which must be met prior to entitlement passing which are not wholly within the control of the charity.

Grants which have the characteristics of a gift which have restrictions on their usage to certain activities or purposes within the charity are treated as restricted income.

These incoming resources are recognised as donations.

Contractual Income and Grants with performance related conditions are recognised as performance conditions are met (i.e., as related goods and services are provided).

These income resources are recognised as income from charitable activities.

Interest receivable 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 bank.

Unrestricted charitable donations are recognised in the financial statements when the charitable donation has been received, or if, before receipt, there is sufficient evidence to provide the necessary certainty that the donation will be received, and the value of the incoming resources can be measured with sufficient reliability.

Volunteers and Donated Services, Facilities and Goods

Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the Charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the Charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), the general volunteer time of the Charity is not recognised in the main body of the financial statement, but detail is contained in the Trustees’ Report.

On receipt, donated professional services, donated facilities and goods are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the Charity which is the amount the Charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Expenditure

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 a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings, they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. A further analysis of this expenditure is given in the notes to the financial statements.

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

Allocation of Support Costs

Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the Charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include back-office costs, finance and administration personnel, payroll and governance costs which support the Charity’s programmes and activities. These costs have been allocated as expenditure on charitable activities. The basis on which support costs have been allocated are set out in note 5.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Fixtures and fittings - 25% on cost Computer equipment - 33% on cost

All tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost and subsequently carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. The cost of a tangible fixed asset initially recognised includes its purchase price and any cost that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

Assets are reviewed for impairment if circumstances indicate their carrying value may exceed their net realisable value and value in use.

Taxation

The charity is an institution which is established for charitable purposes within the meaning of the Charities Act 2011 and as such is a charity within the meaning of Para 1 of Schedule 6 to the Finance Act 2010. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Sections 478-488 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 (formerly enacted in Section 505 of the Income and Corporation Taxes Act 1988) or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992 to the extent that such income or gains are applied to exclusively charitable purposes. The charity receives no similar exemption in respect of Value Added Tax. For this reason, the charity is generally unable to recover input VAT it incurs on goods and services purchased.

Fund accounting

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by the donor or governing document.

Unrestricted funds comprise those funds which the trustees are free to use for any purpose in furtherance of the charity's objectives. Unrestricted funds include designated funds where the trustees, at their discretion, have created a fund for a specific purpose.

Transfers are made from unrestricted to restricted funds to cover any overspends on restricted projects during the year where cost will not be met by the funder. Transfers between restricted funds and from restricted to unrestricted funds are made with the permission of the funder.

Further details of each fund are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Operating leases

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities on a straight-line basis over the period of the lease.

Pension costs

The charitable company operates a group personal pension plan (GPPP). Employees contract directly with the pension company and have their own plan in their own name within the GPPP. Contributions by the charity and employees are determined by the scheme rules. The charity acts as agent in collecting and paying over employee pension contributions. Once the contributions have been paid, the charity as employer has no further obligations. From 1 April 2015, under the Pensions Act 2008, the charity must put certain staff into a pension scheme and contribute towards it. This is called automatic enrolment and the GPPP is compliant in this regard. Contributions charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in respect of pension costs is the total of contributions payable in the year. Differences between contributions payable in the year and contributions actually paid are shown as either accruals or prepayments in the balance sheet.

Contributions outstanding at the reporting date amounted to £4,195 (2021: £4,341).

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash and short-term cash deposits.

Provisions

Provisions are recognised where the Charity 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.

Financial Instruments

The Charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments including trade and other debtors and trade creditors. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.

Judgement and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty

In the application of the Charity’s accounting policies, the Charity is required to make judgments, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods
