Section C Objectives and activities

Summary of the purposes of
the charity set out in its
governing document
Summary of the main
activities undertaken for the
public benefit in relation to
these objects
Statement confirming whether
the trustees have had regard
to the guidance issued by the
Charity Commission on public
benefit		 To provide the residents of Cottenham and the neighbourhood, without
distinction of age, sex, sexual orientation, race or of political, religious or
other opinions with a centre and focus where all can meet and where
facilities in the interests of community welfare and for recreational and
educational leisure-time occupation are available with the objective of
enhancing the quality of life for residents.
SORP ref 1.17
The charity is focused on managing and developing a Community Centre
for the residents of Cottenham and the local area.
The Community Coffee Shop continues to be the hub around which other
activities develop and progress. It is a vibrant and successful meeting
place which is used by a wide cross-section of the community.
A complete re-development of our upstairs space was implemented this
year. This delivered the Skylight Room, a well-specified accessible space
providing a comfortable and quiet environment suitable for a range of
community uses.
We continue to support existing activities and encourage and develop
new activities within the Community Centre. We aim to support activities
for all age groups – from the very young through mid-age to the elderly.
SORP ref 1.17 & 1.19
In planning our activities for the year, the trustees have had regard to the
guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit.
SORP ref 1.18

Section D Achievements and performance

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year

A main focus for 2025 was a significant re-development of our dance studio to create a flexible second activities hall (now named The Skylight Room) with improved accessibility and environmental performance. Although available for use from September, this new space was officially opened on 16[th] January 2026.

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:

In addition, we continued to provide space for local groups and classes to meet. Regular groups/classes included:

We welcomed these new activities during this year:

•
investment policy		 We reported a loss for the year from normal operations (unrestricted
funds) of around £4,000. In addition, we invested around £10,000 in
updating the Coffee Shop servery area and contributed around £9,000 to
the Skylight Room project.
Our overall accounting loss for the year was £23,130 – with most of this
relating to these planned investments.
We retain sufficient funds to support all ongoing activities and any
reasonably-anticipated repair and maintenance costs.
SORP ref 1.21
The trustees consider that we should hold a cash reserve to support
maintenance and repair liabilities and to provide a buffer for cashflow and
against longer term risks.
Planned investments this year and recent losses have reduced this
reserve below our target level. Re-building this cash reserve, including
repayment of the Community Loan, is now a main financial priority.
SORP ref 1.22
We have no major concerns in this respect. However, while we operate
with reduced reserves, our ability to manage financial risks is reduced.

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.

Recognition of income
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.
Support costs
The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs.
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.
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 mostly relate to the
SKY restricted fund.
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.
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.
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.
Donated services and
facilities
Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of the gift to
the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably.
Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations when
receivable.
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.		 Yes

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 are claims 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.
