Our Aims and Objectives

At Busy Bees we aim to:-

Promote a community ethos where adults and children can reach their full potential
Provide a warm, caring, inclusive and family environment for children aged 0 – 11 years, where each child and adult is treated as an individual and their unique qualities are recognised and celebrated
To enable children’s learning by providing experiences and opportunities that are fun, stimulating and appropriate.

Ensuring our work delivers our aims

Continually monitoring local demands and requirements so we can offer a service that is flexible and accessible
Liaising with members of the community such as Health visitors and school representative, as well as employers, Trade associations and local community groups
Ensuring our facilities are safe and secure and an appropriate environment for our activities.

How our activities deliver public benefit

Affordable quality childcare enables parents to continue or return to work, improve their skills with training and further education. This includes escorting children to and from school and nursery for parents that would be unable to work without our services.
Allowing community groups to utilise our facilities to run activities and meetings
Supporting families in need of respite or childcare to enable them to better their quality of life for themselves and their children.
Actively employing local people and providing on the job training and experience opportunities for students.
Working in tandem with local health professionals to target families in need and delivering a service that improves the quality of life of the whole family

Financial review

Finances remain stable, although there have been cash flow issues, we must work hard to make sure Flying Start registers, Childcare offer registers and invoices are all sent out as early as possible.

The reduction of the NI threshold for employers has had a large impact, with a cost of about £30,000 extra to be paid out. The increase in minimum wage was not as brutal as last year, but we still had to increase our fees by 15% to counter the increased cost.

For the period 23/24 to 24/25 the wages rose by 13%, we have worked hard to counter the increases by reducing hours where we can, whilst providing quality care. .

The fees were increased by 12% which, plus there was an increase in the funding rate for the Childcare offer. This increase has helped towards sustainability, however the rate paid is still £1.40 below what the nursery charges per hour.

We are continuing to pay off the last remaining loan, there is currently around £9,000 left to repay, this should be cleared in around two years.

Grants - we only received a small amount of funding toward Healthy eating, and returned the Moondance funding received for Summer for 2024, resulting in a minus figure for grants in this period

Careful monitoring of the finances is needed to continue to manage the income and wages. This is always difficult due to the fluctuating nature of numbers of children attending. The amount of unpaid childcare continues to be too high and impacts the cash flow. Since March 2025 we have been diligent in chasing fees, and have issued many withdrawal notices. Some families have been refused care due to unpaid bills. Legal proceedings will now take place if fees are not paid in a timely manner.

We did not do very much fundraising over the last 12 months again, due to a variety of factors. We may look to be increasing this, but it depends on a lot of work outside of work hours, which is difficult for a lot of staff.

Moving forward, we need to continue to make sure that the wages bill remains trimmed where possible. We also need to pursue debt more aggressively.

The projections for the next year look alright. Usual sticky months, usually the month before FS comes in

Principle Funding Sources

Aside from the principal income generated by the services we provide, we continue to receive funding from Torfaen County Borough Council to provide Free Flying Start preschool places within both Busy Bees Blaenavon and at BICC, and from September 2018 many families have accessed the Free 30 Hours childcare offer.

Structure, Governance and Management

Governing Document

The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on the 6[th] of February 2008 and registered as a charity on the 30[th] of June 2008. The company was established under a Memorandum of Association which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association. In the event of the company being wound up members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £1.

Recruitment and Appointment of Management Commitee

Some of the directors of the company are also charity trustees for the purposes of charity law

Under the company’s Articles directors/trustees are known as members of the Management committee. All members of the Management Committee give their time voluntarily and receive no benefit from the charity.

The Management Board has a mix of parents and staff to ensure that all aspects are covered and that it can be functional as a Board.

Risk Management

Day to day risk assessment procedures and policies are in operation throughout the nursery. These are maintained and reviewed by the Manager. Procedures are in place to ensure compliance with health and safety of staff, volunteers, clients and visitors to the building and to the satellite group Busy Bees @ BICC

Organisational Structure

Busy Bees has a Management Board of ten members who meet monthly and are responsible for the strategic direction and policy of the charity. The Management Board at present has several members from professional backgrounds and several who do not in order to fully represent the community we support.

A Management structure is in place. Day to day responsibility for smooth running rests with the Nursery Manager, supported by the Registered Individual and deputy managers.. The Nursery Manager reports to the Management Board.

Responsibilities of the Management Committee

Company law requires the Management Committee to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the affairs of the company as at the balance sheet date and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including income and expenditure, for the financial year. In preparing those financial statements, the management board should follow best practices and:

Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently

Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and

Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is not appropriate to assume that the company will continue on that basis.

The management board is responsible for maintaining 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 1985. The Management Board is 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.

Members of the Management Committee

Members of the Management Committee, who are directors for the purpose of company law, Tom and Sue are also trustees for the purpose of charity law, who served during the year and up to the date of this report are set out on page 2.

In accordance with company law, as the company directors, we certify that;

So far as we are aware, there is no relevant information of which the company directors are unaware; and

As the directors of the company we have taken all the steps that we ought to have taken in order to make ourselves aware of any relevant information and to establish that the management board is aware of that information.

This report has been approved by the Management Board on 21/10/2025 and signed on its behalf by Cara Boddington
