**LAWRENCE WESTON OUT OF SCHOOL ACTIVITIES**
## **TRUSTEES REPORT**
## **YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
The Trustees present their report and the unaudited financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2022.
The charity trustees are responsible for preparing a trustees’ annual report and financial statements in accordance with the accounting policies set out in notes to the accounts and comply with the charity’s governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).
## **Structure, Governance and Management**
## **Organisation**
The Trustees are appointed or re-appointed annually at the AGM.
## **Public Benefit**
The Trustees have complied with their duty under Section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission and this is reflected in the objectives below.
The Charity is also registered with Ofsted and all staff and volunteers undertake full DBS checks and also Paediatric First Aid training.
## **Summary of the objectives and main activities undertaken for the public benefit**
- To provide afterschool facilities for the children of the area. The Charity runs two after school clubs, one based at The Rock Community Centre in Lawrence Weston and one based at Shirehampton Primary School.
- To provide holiday play scheme facilities for the children of the area, currently based at Shirehampton Primary School.
- To advance the education and training of the staff in the provision of such care, education and recreational facilities.
## **Summary of main achievements of the Charity during the year**
The Charity continues to provide high quality and affordable after school childcare between 3pm and 6pm weekdays during term time to meet the requirements of the local communities of Lawrence Weston and Shirehampton.
Also, a range of exciting and varied holiday play schemes are provided during the school holidays, running from 8.30 am to 5:30 pm on weekdays.
The post of Project Manager funded by the Nisbet Trust has led to improvements both physical and in quality of service promoting children’s active choice, improved resources, and equipment at both settings.

**LAWRENCE WESTON OUT OF SCHOOL ACTIVITIES**
## **TRUSTEES REPORT**
## **YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
Throughout the year the settings have been working in line with Government guidelines in relation to Covid-19 re-opening in March 2021. Due to reduced use of settings some staff were part furloughed in line with the Government scheme until September 2021. During this year all guidance has been followed, including reducing social mixing and enhanced hygiene routines to reduce the risk of outbreaks. However, despite these restrictions the organisation has been able to become engaged and deliver services for Bristol City Council’s Holiday Hub programme. This is a new service for children on free school meals in need of stimulating play activities during the school holidays and we have initially run well-received projects in the Summer and Christmas.
The Charity has received great on-going support from voluntary and maintained sector organisations, the local authority, local business and community trusts and community supporters. It is important to note the difference the HMRC furlough scheme made to the charity’s survival. The Trustees would also like to thank all funders for their continued assistance. In 2021-2022 fee income has started to recover and the Charity aims to further develop to meet community need.
The Trustees would like to thank all the staff for their continued commitment to supporting children and their families during the past year. It has been a particularly stressful time for all staff, trustees and volunteers working in a constantly changing environment.
## **Reserves Policy and Risk Management**
The charity is financially sound and, in line with the Charity Commissions ‘best practice’ guidelines, implemented in 2016 a Reserves Policy whereby a financial provision of £30,000 has been set aside in a ring-fenced bank account to cover, in the event of difficulties, all future statutory obligations, including three months’ salary/running costs. This is reviewed annually in March and revised, when required, to ensure that the charity continues to be covered against future contingencies and any fluctuations in receipts. Throughout the pandemic, the trustees prioritised regular reports of the reserves and overall financial position. In so doing, necessary steps – such as sourcing additional funding – were implemented to lessen risks.
Strong financial control continues with a dual authorisation payment process, use of electronic banking and an annual independent review.
All strategies are periodically reviewed to ensure that they still meet the needs of the Charity and that clear staff policies, including covering child safeguarding, are in place.
The Charity also continues to meet its statutory obligations to its staff:
- National Living Wage - implemented for all staff.
## **Plans for the future**
- To secure funding to support the overall running of out of school services throughout the pandemic, as fee income has fallen and recovery will take time.
- To secure funding to retain the Project Manager to further improve and develop the Clubs and staff through this time of change in order to meet the community’s future needs and to ensure the continued success of the Charity.
**- 4 -**
**LAWRENCE WESTON OUT OF SCHOOL ACTIVITIES**
## **TRUSTEES REPORT**
## **YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
- To adapt ways of working both in terms of service delivery and trustee governance to ensure pandemic secure standards are met.
- To increase the number of Trustees in order to expand the levels of expertise, skills and knowledge available to the benefit of the Charity.
- To build up a bank of staff and volunteers that can be utilised, when required, in order to ensure a high level of service is constantly maintained.
## **Trustees’ responsibilities in relation to the financial statements**
Law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the charity’s financial activities during the year and of its financial position at the end of the year. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:
- Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the applicable Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations, and the provisions of the governing document.
The trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES**
## **YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022**
I report on the accounts of the Charity for the Year ended 31st March 2022 which are set out on pages 7-14.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
## **Independent examiner’s statement**
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or
2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
