PLAY GLOUCESTERSHIRE
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
for the Year Ended 31 March 2022
The Trustees (who are also directors for the purposes of company law) present their report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022. Included within the trustees' report is the directors' report as required by company law.
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 2 to the accounts and comply with the Charity's Memorandum and Articles of Association, in accordance with Statement of Recommended Practice, Accounting and Reporting by Charities SORP (FRS102) and the Companies Act 2006.
## **Objectives and Activities**
The objects of the charity are:
To advance in life and help young people up to the age of 19 through:
(a) The provision of recreational and leisure time activities provided in the interest of social welfare, designed to improve their conditions of life.
(b) Providing support and activities which develop their skills, capacities and capabilities to enable them to participate in society as mature and responsible individuals.
The charity has a shared vision of happy and healthy childhoods full of outdoor play. Play Gloucestershire is a charity which believes that playing outdoors is an essential part of a happy, healthy childhood, and at the heart of a nurturing community. We provide fun, adventurous and inclusive opportunities for local outdoor play, to transform children’s lives and help them build active, positive futures.
The main areas of activity used to achieve these objectives are:
- Providing free open access play opportunities for all in parks and public open spaces (Community Play Rangers)
- Providing volunteering and playwork opportunities for young people, through our Young Volunteer scheme. We also provide volunteering opportunities for young people taking their Duke of Edinburgh Award and provide a small number of work experience placements to children we work with and to older students.
- Encouraging children and families to be active by offering ideas for active games and activities at play sessions; encouraging healthy eating by offering healthy snacks and meals and encouraging children to get involved in preparing food.
- Providing child-led outdoor play either in small groups or one-to-one for therapeutic benefit (Play Nurture)
- Promoting children’s play to funders, schools, communities and working to develop playful communities across the County (play advocacy)
To assess outcomes, the charity keeps records of attendance at play sessions which are reported back to funders. Case studies, quotes and feedback from families, teachers and others are also recorded to assess impact. The charity has conducted user surveys and commissioned external evaluation reports in prevous years and the current Play 2 Nurture project includes a full evaluation process, which will provide good practice for the future.
The charity does not make use of social investment and does not make grants.
The charity has a small number of adult volunteers and Duke of Edinburgh volunteers who contribute to play sessions but they are always in addition to paid staff, rather than in place of them.
The trustees have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and in planning its future activities. In particular, the trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives that have been set.

PLAY GLOUCESTERSHIRE
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
for the Year Ended 31 March 2022
## **Achievements and Performance**
The charity's main activities and who it tries to help are described below. All its charitable activities focus on outdoor child-led play and are undertaken to further Play Gloucestershire's charitable purposes for the public benefit.
The headline leading this trustees report is that our Play Rangers resumed community play after a 16month hiatus. At the start of this financial year, the Covid storm was still raging and we were still unable to deliver open access play in parks across Gloucestershire.
The timely emergency support from The National Lottery Community Fund and HM Government through their Coronavirus Community Support Fund meant that we were able to start the new year on a strong financial footing. Not only have we been able to adapt our play activities to support some of Gloucestershire’s disadvantaged children with our Play Nurture and Stepping Out sessions, we were also able to provide families with a playful boost by getting out another 3,000 Bags of Play between April 2021 and March 2022.
## **Community Play**
The missing component to our work was community play and it was not until the school summer holidays when Covid restrictions started to relax, that we were able to resume our much-loved free, open access play in green spaces across the County. It had been sorely missed by children and their families and our Play Rangers could not wait to get back to it. Returning to play was challenging for some. Young people have spent so long in social isolation that it took courage for some to return. Our Play Team were acutely aware that some struggled, needed extra encouragement and we all noticed the missing faces – regulars pre-covid who did not return. It highlights the importance of continuity in community play – something that pre-covid Play Gloucestershire had achieved so successfully over the 14 years of its existence. Sharing everyday events with children on a regular basis builds trust. When weekly contact stops, relationships can grind to a halt and some young people simply lose their desire and healthy habit of weekly outdoor play with friends and their trusted Play Rangers.
## **Work in Schools**
We have continued to run Play Nurture sessions at Harewood Junior School and also at The Milestone School (SEND provision setting). We have also provided emergency one-to-one sessions with a child who was at risk of being excluded from school. Our Play Nurture Plus project, described below, also takes place in schools.
## **Play Statistics**
The statistics show we have provided 106 play days, 186 school sessions, 117 after school sessions and more than 1061 hours of outdoor play, receiving 4730 play visits from children.
Some significant projects have been funded during this year:
## **Play Nurture Plus**
Play Nurture Plus is a joint project between Play Gloucestershire, Gloucestershire Healthy Living and Learning, Gloucestershire’s Clinical Commissioning Group and Active Gloucestershire that began in April 2021 and ran on a term-by-term basis until March 2022. The aim of the project was to embed the principles of Play Gloucestershire’s award-winning Play Nurture programme in schools using a ‘train the trainer’ model designed and implemented by Play Gloucestershire. Working with 17 partner schools this pilot project we supported pupils to:
- Build resilience
- Increase physical activity
- Improve relationships
- Develop imagination and creativity
- Promote learning
- Encourage mindfulness

PLAY GLOUCESTERSHIRE REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
for the Year Ended 31 March 2022
There are now 46 faculty members spread across our initial 17 partner schools that have benefitted from the ‘train the trainer’ model and on the job experience of how Play Nurture sessions work. With the skills, techniques and experience gained in the 8-week PNG programme 31 school Play Champions have used the principles and developed their own version of Play Nurture with support from our Play Rangers providing regular check-ins, WhatsApp/online support groups, and reflective practice. We have left a Play Nurture legacy with schools prepared to use play and its benefits to support staff and pupils.
## **PAClife**
Physical and Cultural Activities for Life Skill Development (known as PAClife) is our first European project - funded by Erasmus+ and designed to support young migrants and young people facing disadvantage to develop increased resilience through sport and cultural activities. The project, led by The University of Gloucestershire has joined 6 partners from across the EU (Play Gloucestershire, Rogers Foundation- Hungary, KMOP- Greece, CESIE- Italy and MS ActionAid, Denmark) who have collaborated to enhance the lives of young people, refugees or looked after young people.
The PACLife project was interrupted by Covid, resulting in a very intense and condensed 12-month period of delivery from June 2021. We collaborated by devising a core syllabus with partners and then our Team Leader Katie Spencer-Jefferies took part in training the trainers, trained our own trainers and some external ones as well, and oversaw the training of 11 young people who went on to successfully complete a volunteer placement. The increase in confidence and self-esteem of our participating young people was marked, as was their understanding and self-awareness that doing good makes you feel good.
## **HAF**
We continued to contribute to the Government funded Holiday Activity and Food programme, known as HAF. This programme supports children experiencing holiday hunger with positive activities and healthy meals. Our charity has not only delivered HAF activities at Easter, Summer and Christmas this year but provided more Bags of Play and supported the development of the HAF programme with Gloucestershire County Council. New partnerships have emerged with The Sober Parrot and The Long Table (providing healthy meals for us to cook and serve outdoors on our campfires) and we have worked closely with Gloucestershire Gateway Trust and The Venture, White City too. We were chosen as a case study for the national HAF evaluation and hosted a virtual visit to one of our summer play days.
## **Play 2 Nurture**
In early September 2021, we received the fabulous news that The National Lottery Community Fund had awarded us £240,119 over three years to provide outdoor play and support for children and families living in the heart of Gloucester. Our ‘Play 2 Nurture’ project will support 90 school-aged children each year, using the therapeutic power of play to help those facing adversity to build resilience and have better life chances. The project is targeted at children who live or go to school within a mile of The Play Sanctuary in Gloucester (GL1 4DF). It aims to use play to help young people experiencing emotional and/or economic hardship as we emerge from the pandemic. We had applied for this grant before the pandemic hit, so were delighted that after a long wait, in January 2022 we were able to launch this project. It starts at the very time when children need to play more than ever, as we attempt to support their Covid recovery through play.
Other significant developments:
## **First electric vehicle**
Towards the end of the year, we were fortunate to be awarded a grant of £46,053 from the DCMS Youth Investment Fund for an eight-seater electric vehicle to transport children and play equipment.

PLAY GLOUCESTERSHIRE
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
for the Year Ended 31 March 2022
## **New Director of Play**
Succession planning for our new Director of Play started in June 2021. With pro bono support from consultant Julie Lester, a timeline was created to ensure that the new Director would be in post at the start of April 2022. The planning ensured that we kept to our timetable keeping our staff fully informed and supported in the process. Retention of staff is something that Play Gloucestershire excel in and we were keenly aware that such a big change can cause uncertainty and instability. Interviews were held in November 2021 and we were delighted to appoint Team Leader Ben Morris as our new Director of Play who succeeded charity founder Pip Levett after 14 years at the helm.
The charity did not undertake any large scale fundraising activities, does not make any investments and has not incurred any material expenditure to raise funds in the future.
## **Beneficiaries of our services**
The main beneficiaries of our services are children, with our core age range being 7 to 13. This includes looked-after children, children dealing with difficulties in their lives which may include domestic abuse, bereavement, difficulties making friendships, as well as those dealing with the usual ups and downs of childhood. We work with children at public green spaces near their homes and focus on areas of urban deprivation or rural isolation. We also work with referred children in schools and also in a SEND provision setting. Further beneficiaries are the children's families and carers, school staff and local communities where we engage with local people to improve provision of safe places to play and to increase use of green spaces.
## **Financial Review**
Over the last 14 years the Play Gloucestershire team have consistently proved their ability to adapt and change rapidly to evolving circumstances whilst keeping our play mission central to all activity. We have built a low core cost model, with only one member of the team non-child facing, and the whole team led by the Play Director always placing the needs of the children and communities first, no matter what the circumstances. We have a long and exemplary track record for play delivery, quality, reliability and value.
There is high demand for our services as we move into recovery from the pandemic. Demand is met through commissioning and grants with several large-scale projects this year. We are currently working with NHS Clinical Commissioning Group (CCG) on a two year continuation of our ‘Play Nurture Plus’ programme in schools across the county and CCG have also funded a two year project offering Play Nurture in schools and community play in an area they have targeted as in need of health and welfare interventions, Kingsway in Gloucester. Our new three year Lottery funded project called ‘Play 2 Nurture’ started in January 2022 giving us a solid financial base during this period. Gloucestershire County Council’s Early Help Team have also re-commissioned our ‘Playful Transitions’ approach – giving support to children in transition to secondary school.
Other projects put on hold due to the pandemic have resumed such as ERASMUS PACLife. Community play funders have all returned; we have a full programme of after school delivery and there is a strong demand for community play during the holidays.
Play Gloucestershire ended the financial year with very strong reserves having received more income than expected due to more income streams returning after Covid, the grant for an electric vehicle, and a large grant of £140k paid in advance by NHS CCG for two 2-year programmes. However, increasingly challenging economic circumstances for the whole country mean that costs are rising steeply, so we may need to call on reserves. Our fleet of five vans is also now 15 years old and starting to show signs of wear and tear; we will need to hold reserves in case we have to replace or lease one or more vans in order to keep delivering play sessions. As a mobile service, we are dependent upon our vans to deliver play. All that being said, we are as well placed as we can be to ensure that we keep supporting children through the years ahead.

PLAY GLOUCESTERSHIRE REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
for the Year Ended 31 March 2022
## **Going concern**
We have been successful in moving towards a model of ‘50:50’ Community Play: Play Nurture as identified in our strategic plan called ‘More Play Please’ and this brings our finances to a sustainable position. We had identified that after-school and holiday provision was not sufficient to fund the charity's expenses and we also wanted to do more therapeutic Play Nurture work to support children. The Play Nurture projects we have developed have allowed us to fulfil our charitable objectives and also place the charity's finances on a more sustainable basis. The trustees are happy that Play Gloucestershire is a going concern.
## **Plans for the future**
We are continuing to follow our strategic plan 'More Play Please' as mentioned above by continuing to provide a mixture of free to use open-access Community Play and targeted therapeutic play nurture sessions. We plan to increase provision by recruiting and training a new site leader who can lead sessions in both types of work. This person was employed in July 2022 and is gaining experience.
## **Reserves policy**
The policy of the charity is to maintain adequate general reserves at a level equivalent to between three and six month's expenditure (£60,000 - £120,000). The trustees consider that general reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the Charity's activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised.
Reserves are currently higher than this level at £192,946 but this includes £46,000 grant for the electric vehicle (which has been purchased) and will be depreciated over the next four years, so is not available for general expenditure. As explained above, uncertain economic circumstances and the increasingly likely need to replace or lease new vans means that this surplus may well be called on in the near future in order to allow the charity to keep delivering for its beneficiaries. If circumstances change (eg we find grant funding for new vans, or costs stop increasing so sharply) the trustees will look to reduce reserves to the usual level.
Reserves as at 31 March 2021 were as follows:

## **Chair's Report**
Reflecting on 2021/22, our charity was in a healthy financial position, particularly after securing funding from the National Lottery Community Fund. The year also marked the very welcome return of our open access community play, following the relaxation of Covid restrictions. This important element of our work was greatly missed by children, families and our Play Rangers. Play Nurture and Stepping Out activities continued to support some of the most disadvantaged children in Gloucestershire.
After 14 years, Pip Levett stepped down as Director of Play. As the founder of the charity, these were hard shoes to fill. However, the trustees were delighted to appoint Team Leader Ben Morris as her successor and have no doubt that the charity is in capable hands, as Ben leads Play Gloucestershire through its next chapter.

PLAY GLOUCESTERSHIRE REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
for the Year Ended 31 March 2022
## **Related parties and relationships with other organisations**
Play Gloucestershire does not have any formal partnerships with other organisations for play delivery but has worked with the Nelson Trust and The Long Table to provide food for HAF sessions. We have longstanding informal relationships with many charities and other organisations across the County.
Reference and Administrative Details are shown on page one of this report.
## **Statement of trustees' responsibilities**
The trustees (who are also directors of Play Gloucestershire for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
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 the year. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
• state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that
- the charitable company will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and 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.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF PLAY GLOUCESTERSHIRE
I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2022 set out on pages 10 to 25.
## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner**
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Charities Act”) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
- examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,
- to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b)) of the Charities Act, and
- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
## **Basis of independent examiner’s statement**
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
## **Independent examiner's statement**
The charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of ICAEW.
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements:
- to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and
- to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act
have not been met; or
2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
