Section D Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year

Our biggest achievement for the year was the installation of a solar generation and storage scheme, following funding through grants and local fundraising mostly completed during 2022. The system has performed well for us, reducing energy usage and therefore our carbon footprint.

Towards the end of the year, we started work towards funding a significant development of our dance studio. We hope to upgrade and enhance this area to create a Second Activities Hall, with improved accessibility and environmental performance. We anticipate this work going ahead during 2024 or 2025, depending on funding.

We again arranged a series of differing events for members of the community to enjoy and learn from. Some of our highlights for the year have been:

Celebrated the coronation of King Charles III with the community through a live screening in our Coffee Shop of BBC coverage of the event.
Jointly organised (with Sustainable Cottenham) another drop-in session on Home Energy where visitors were able to view presentations and receive one-to-one advice from energy experts.
Organised a very well-supported Preloved Clothing Sale which successfully raised money for those selling unwanted clothing – and for our own funds.
Raised funds through events such as a musical evening with ‘C5 The Band’ and a Pop Music Quiz.
Held well-attended monthly Community Cinema screenings; thirteen different films were screened through the year.

In addition, we continued to provide space for local groups and classes to meet. We welcomed these new activities during this year:

Re-started a weekly Pilates class, meeting the needs of an eager group wanting to continue with in-person classes.
Ballet classes commenced and now offer two sessions per week.

Section E Financial review

We reported a small surplus for the year from normal operations Review of the charity’s (unrestricted funds) – although a contribution to our solar project financial position at the end of (restricted fund) to complete its funding meant that we reported a small the period loss overall. However, we retain sufficient funds to support all ongoing activities and any reasonably-anticipated repair and maintenance costs. Energy costs remained high through the year, despite significant reductions to grid energy usage following installation of our solar scheme during May. SORP ref 1.21 We do not anticipate growing our reserves significantly at this time. We Statement of the charity’s will therefore continue to prioritise funding of regular maintenance of our policy on reserves building and the equipment and fittings required to operate the Community Centre. Despite this, we do expect to contribute some funds to our Second Activities Hall project during 2024 and/or 2025. Although we anticipate this project will be largely grant-funded, it is helpful to winning such grants to be able to confirm some self-funding and local fundraising towards the project. SORP ref 1.22 We have no significant concerns in this respect – although the small surplus we’re able to generate increases the risk of difficulties should we Explanation of any uncertainties about the encounter any major unexpected maintenance or replacement needs. It is anticipated that completion of our Second Activities Hall project will charity continuing as a going concern lead to a larger annual surplus and hence a more financially secure future.

Note 2 Accounting policies 2.2 INCOME

Note 2 Accounting policies 2.2 INCOME
This standard list of accounting policies has been applied by the charity except for those ticked "No" or "N/a". Where a different or additional policy has been adopted then this is detailed in the box below.	Yes No N/a
Recognition of income There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required or permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102. In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent that the charity has provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP). Legacies Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the charity or have been met. Government grants The charity has received government grants in the reporting period. These relate only to COVID- 19. Tax reclaims on donations and gifts Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor. Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the terms of the appeal have specified otherwise. The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be the fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on receipt. In the reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised as an expense at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution. Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations when receivable. Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income from other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance sheet. On its sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading activities' and the proceeds from sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading activities'. Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets and included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable. These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when: · the charity becomes entitled to the resources; · it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources; and · the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability. Donated goods Contractual income and performance related grants Offsetting Grants and donations Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP). This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or services or met the performance related conditions. Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be exchanged) unless impractical to do so.

Donated services and Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of the gift facilities to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably. Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as income with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate heading in the SOFA. Support costs The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs.

Volunteer help The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustees’ annual report. Income from interest, This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can be royalties and dividends measured reliably. Income from membership Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in Donations and subscriptions Legacies. Membership subscriptions which gives a member the right to buy services or other benefits are recognised as income earned from the provision of goods and services as income from charitable activities. Settlement of insurance Insurance claims are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria claims are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP) and are included as an item of other income in the SoFA. Investment gains and losses This includes any realised or unrealised gains or losses on the sale of investments and any gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the year. 2.3 EXPENDITURE AND LIABILITIES Liability recognition Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty. Governance and support Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support. Governance costs costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice. Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage. Grants with performance Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of service conditions or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output. Grants payable without Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity to performance conditions realistically avoid the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must be recognised. Redundancy cost The charity made no redundancy payments during the reporting period. Deferred income No material item of deferred income has been included in the accounts. Creditors The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts Provisions for liabilities A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date
