Structure, governance

(Cont'd)
As detailed
in Note 13to the financial statements,
the Charity
has three related
parties, Lancashire
County Cricket Club, Lancashire
Couniy Cricket
Club
Development
Association,
for which the Charity
is the sole member,
and LCCC Trust Trading
Limited, the Charily's
trading
subsidiary.
Financial review
Despite ths dramatic
impact ofthe global pandemic
which led to ths need for a major restructuring
of the Foundation's
workforce,
leading to redundancy
costs totalling
f133,344, a small surplus ofF26,670 was generated
in the year which represented
a significant
improvement
on the prior year defimt of
E363,365
The Foundation
was unable
to carry out much
of its activities
and was forced
to place most of its staff on furlough,
thus
taking
advantage
of the
government's
employment
support
scheme
to help
retain
most of its staff The lost revenues
were
largely
offset by srgnrficant
cost reductions,
with
programme
delivery
expenditure
significantly
curtailed.
The restructuring
and signiticant
cost cuNng
regime
put
in place has been cerned
forward
into
2021 and projeckons
demonstrate
that the charity
will move back Inta posiTive reseniss
temlory
by 2022. Whilst uncertainty
surrounding
the impact of
Covid-19 continues,
the closing
bank balance off248,907, the continuing
support
of Lancashire
County
Cncket Club and the posBve operating
cash
fiows expected
in 2021,afi indicate that the underlying
hnancial
resources ofthe foundation
remain
relatively
healthy.
During the year, the Foundation
received donations
amounbng
to E1,265,920(2019:E1,196,649) In addition,
the Foundabon
received
gift aid income of
E2992(2019:0805),event income ofE24570(2019:E27902)and grant income of6420 342 (2019ENIL) from the government
coronavirus
job retention
scheme. Including
donafions
this contributed
towards
total income ofE1,739,728 (2019:E1,356,625).
The Foundation
has incurred
expenses
in relation
to charitable
activities
during
the course ofthe year relating
to donafions
of FNIL (2019:ENIL), payroll
costs F1,392,027(2019:E1,249,096)and other charitable costs f252,097(2019:5399,431).
The Group generated
a net proS in ihe year ofE26,370(2019' deficit of6363,365)after consolidating
ils 100%subsidiary,
LCCC Trust Trading
LimNed,
which generated
a net surplus ofFNIL (2019:E3,194).
The Trustees
remain
confident that the Foundation
can continue to operate for at least the next bvelve months.
Financial
protections
have been prepared
using
largely guaranteed
revenues
and without
raflecbng
the benefil ofany continuing
government
support schemes, and with costs stfil based on a full
year ofactivity; therefore
wfih bufit in confingency
should the pandemic
continue
well into 2021.These forecasts and resufiing
positive operatfng
cashfiows
will result
in the Foundation
returning
to positive
general
reserves
during 2022. Flnafiy, the main creditor and key strategic
partner,
Lancashire
County
Cricket Club, have re-affirmed
their support and wfil only require settlement
ofany debtors due from the Foundakon
during
the next twelve months, as and
when
itcan be afforded.
Reserves
The Foundafion
seeks to retain a general
reserve
to provide
sufficient
resources
to ensure
that the level of expenditure,
both charitable
spend
and
overheads,
expected
in the next 12 months (ass minimum),
is covered. It is clear that during 2019,reserves
fell below the targeted
levels and smce
then
the impact ofCovkl-19 has fimiled
the extent to which the Trustees have been able to take action to successfully
clear the deficit and re-build reserves
As discussed
above, the Trustees are continuing
to proactivsly
address
this issue and are confident
that cash flows for the next twelve
months
will be
sufficient to support
the charity. The current reserves
deficit Is projected to be cleared by the 31 December 2021 year end wfih reserves
then to be
buifi
back up again during 2022.
Grants
The Charily
only distributes
grants as directed
by the England
and Wales Cricket Board (ECB)for specific programmes
designed

cricket
club
development

and successful
club 8league network
