Objectives and activities

The Phoenix Resource Centre is a registered charity whose main objectives are the protection and preservation of the environment for the public benefit by the promotion of waste reduction, re-use reclamation, recycling, the use of recycled products and the use of surplus. Our secondary objectives are the provision of resources for the use in creative play, the arts, rehabilitation and education, sensory work, fundraising and for disadvantaged groups and individuals. The areas of society that we primarily focus on are children, youth, the elderly, disabled, disadvantaged, charities, not-for profit, voluntary groups and those involved with the arts. We are a company limited by guarantee and licenced by the Environment Agency.

The Phoenix Resource Centre is a unique, ground breaking concept. Taking new resources from industry in bulk and redistributing them to other charities, schools, youth groups, hospitals, art groups, organisations working with the elderly, children, youth, disabled, disadvantaged sectors all via a membership basis. The resources are then used by the groups in art and craft activities, education, design and development, fundraising etc.

We will not undertake any campaigning of a political nature, we are only looking to educate in relation to the environment, recycling and re-use.

Achievements and performance

During our financial year 2021 - 2022 we still continued to feel the effects of the unpaid debts, along with new debts and more trying has been the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic which like most of the third sector has put a massive strain on the charity, not just financially, but also on the work we do. This has only been helped by the continuing understanding of our suppliers and landlords for which we will always be indebted. Coupled with Harlow Council / Government funding, although at the end of the financial period, Harlow Council have issued unexpected and unforeseen rates bills which unless we can sort these out with the council it will have a catastrophic impact on all or our Harlow based projects, bringing into question the future of Phoenix in Harlow.

Due to the Pandemic, the following projects have had to temporarily closed, but we are hopeful that these will return soon - our projects working with disabilities including partnership projects with Olympus Care, The National Autistic Society, Harlow College. The Harlow Lonely Hearts Café, our Resource Centre in Harlow, the award ceremonies, craft projects and workshops, the employability and youth offender / offender rehabilitation programmes. The Live Lounge was heavily impacted, which not only continued to impact our income generation but also resulted in a lot of stock disposal.

During the year we moved into our new warehouse in Wellingborough where we intend to stay for a long period of time, enabling us to have some stability again.

Our foreign Aid program continues to grow, and with our NGO in Djibouti up and running we had two very successful trips - the first designing and building a sensory outdoor play area and sensory indoor classroom, developing youth programmes in the country as well as developing new and building existing relationships with Djibouti organisations and Government. The second trip we secured land in partnership with the education minister to build an agricultural college and develop the technical college next door to the land.

Our new Harlow based community kitchen and food-based programmes have taken off in a big way with the provision of over 10,000 free breakfasts for young people just over the summer period alone. We continue to support the homeless and those in need with free breakfasts and food provision.

Financial review

The profit for the year was £9,273 (2021: £713), leaving total funds to be carried forward of £44,650 (2021: £35,377).

The Council of Management does not consider that there have been any important events affecting the Society between the date of the balance sheet and the date that this report was signed.

Plans for future periods

We are looking forward to restarting our projects in the coming year and hope to come back stronger from the trials that the pandemic has caused us.

We would like to acknowledge and thank our many suppliers who continue to work and build with us, mainly in the redirection of surplus from landfill. Our suppliers continue to donate millions of pounds of valuable resources for us to use in our projects and redistribute to others in the UK and around the world. Through their generosity and support, not only are we able to significantly reduce the amount going into UK landfills, save them tens of thousands of pounds in disposal costs, but we are able to to help over a million people a year in the UK alone.

Special thanks and mention must again go to Booker group and Office Depot who along with other existing and new suppliers continue to donate millions of pounds worth of resources.

Our success and rapid expansion with continued need to expand has been due to many factors. These include our outlook and unique approach, a dedicated team, our ability to change in line with the demands from new and existing suppliers whilst meeting our member's needs, our ground-breaking processes with an in-exhaustive ability to think outside the box, generous amounts of help and support along the way from suppliers, landlords, councils and others who have been impressed by the Phoenix approach. We We are heavily committed to our partners, especially Feed the Hungry, National Autistic Society, Canto, Harlow College, Harlow Council and all of our projects, whilst still remaining focussed on the centres and our core activity.

The trustees wish to express their sincere thanks to our small band of volunteers, past and present, for all their help and to our members and suppliers for their support over the last 10 years.

As the trustees of the company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act’).

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’).

  3. the financial statements do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or

The address of the registered office is Unit 10-11, Bevan Close, Finedon Road Industrial Estate, Wellingborough, Northamptonshire, NN8 4BL.

2. Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland', the 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) (Charities SORP (FRS 102)) and the Companies Act 2006.

3. Accounting policies

Public benefit

The Trustees of The Phoenix Resource Centre (Northampton) Limited understand the need to have regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit.

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through income or expenditure.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.

Going concern

The company currently meets its daily working capital requirements through operating revenues and financial support from funders.

On this basis, the director considers it appropriate to prepare the accounts on the going concern basis. The accounts do not include any adjustments that would result from the failure to raise any additional finance that may prove necessary.

Disclosure exemptions

The entity satisfies the criteria of being a qualifying entity as defined in FRS 102. As such, advantage has been taken of the following disclosure exemptions available under paragraph 1.12 of FRS 102:

(a) No cash flow statement has been presented for the company.

(b) Disclosures in respect of financial instruments have not been presented.

Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

3. Accounting policies (continued)

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees to further any of the charity's purposes.

Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for particular future project or commitment.

Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure declared by the donor or through the terms of an appeal, and fall into one of two sub-classes: restricted income funds or endowment funds.

The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:

3. Accounting policies (continued)

Resources expended

Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates:

All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned between the activities they contribute to on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis.

Operating leases

Lease payments are recognised as an expense over the lease term on a straight-line basis. The aggregate benefit of lease incentives is recognised as a reduction to expense over the lease term, on a straight-line basis.

Tangible assets

Tangible assets are initially recorded at cost, and subsequently stated at cost less any accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. Any tangible assets carried at revalued amounts are recorded at the fair value at the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.

Depreciation

Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:

Fixtures and fittings - 20% reducing balance Motor vehicles - 33% straight line Stocks

Stocks are measured at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell. Cost includes all costs of purchase, costs of conversion and other costs incurred in bringing the stock to its present location and condition.

3. Accounting policies (continued)

Finance leases and hire purchase contracts

Assets held under finance leases and hire purchase contracts are recognised in the statement of financial position as assets and liabilities at the lower of the fair value of the assets and the present value of the minimum lease payments, which is determined at the inception of the lease term. Any initial direct costs of the lease are added to the amount recognised as an asset.

Lease payments are apportioned between the finance charges and reduction of the outstanding lease liability using the effective interest method. Finance charges are allocated to each period so as to produce a constant rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability.

Government grants

Under the accrual model, government grants relating to revenue are recognised on a systematic basis over the periods in which the company recognises the related costs for which the grant is intended to compensate. Grants that are receivable as compensation for expenses or losses already incurred or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support to the entity with no future related costs are recognised in income in the period in which it becomes receivable.

4. Limited by guarantee

The company is limited by guarantee. Each of the members has agreed to contribute to the assets in the event of a deficiency on winding up of an amount not exceeding £1.
