M.A. Centre UK (A company limited by guarantee)

Trustees' report on the accounts for the year ended 31st March 2023

The trustees are pleased to present their annual directors’ report together with the financial statements of the charity for the year ending 31st March 2023 which are also prepared to meet the requirements for a directors’ report and accounts for Companies Act purposes.

The financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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 issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011, and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.

Our purposes and activities

The M.A. Centre UK is a branch of The Mata Amritanandamayi Math (M.A. Math) an international charitable organization aimed at the spiritual and material upliftment of people and supports humanitarian activities in India and worldwide through a network of charitable projects under the banner - Embracing the World.

Activities include international aid and relief programmes, education and research projects all aimed at the development, enrichment and empowerment of diverse communities. Embracing the World projects are inspired by the life and teachings of Sri Mata Amritanandamayi, a globally recognised humanitarian and spiritual leader known throughout the world as 'Amma'. She has served the world-community for decades, imparting wisdom, strength and inspiration.

The M.A. Centre UK aims to serve and contribute to the local community by offering spiritual, ecological, educational, health and wellbeing programmes. Workshops include one day meditation courses, "Get Growing" courses to inspire and educate people to grow their own vegetables, tree planting classes and eco/environmental programmes, yoga classes, retreats, and youth programmes. M.A. Centre UK also provides a base from which disaster relief and fundraising efforts can be run when needed, providing financial support for charitable initiatives in the UK and overseas.

Our volunteers

The charity relies heavily on voluntary help to generate funds through various events and programmes.

Reserves policy and going concern

Reserves are needed to bridge the gap between the spending and receiving of income and to cover unplanned emergency repairs and other expenditure. The trustees consider that the ideal level of reserves as at 31st March 2023 would be £125,000.

Our balance sheet remains strong with net current assets of £286,121 (2022: £278,150) and the ownership of the freehold property at 40a Letchworth Drive and 211 Fairacres, and 66 Hayes Lane, Bromley, Kent. The trustees have reviewed the state of the charity and are of the opinion that adequate funds continue to be available to finance the activities of M.A. Centre UK for the foreseeable future and are of the view that it is a going concern.

Plans for future periods

The hall continues to be hired out to the benefit of the local community and offers a substantial facility for activities of the Charity. Planning permission has been obtained for a substantial commercial kitchen area with a cafe and a dedicated dining area.

Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees of M.A. Centre UK

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the company for the year ended 31st March 2023 which are set out on pages 6 to 17.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity trustees of the company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts 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 your company’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement

Since the company’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of ICAEW, which is one of the listed bodies.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no 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 company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts 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

  4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).

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.

M.A. Centre UK

(A company limited by guarantee)

Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31st March 2023

1. Accounting policies

a) General information

M.A. Centre UK is a charitable company limited by guarantee and incorporated in England and Wales. The registered address can be found on page 1 and details of the principal activities are set out in the Trustees Annual Report.

b) Basis of preparation of financial statements

These accounts have been prepared on an accruals basis and include income and expenditure as they are earned or incurred, rather than as cash is received or paid. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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 issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011, and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice..

M.A. Centre UK meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.

c) Company status

The company is a company limited by guarantee. The members of the company are the Trustees named on page 1. In the event of the company being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the company.

d) Going concern

The company has a strong cash balance, and adequate reserves, and is expecting adequate income to cover future plans. In the opinion of the trustees therefore there are no material uncertainties about the ability of M.A. Centre UK to continue operating. The accounts are accordingly prepared on the Going Concern basis.

e) Income

All income is recognised once the company has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.

For legacies, entitlement is taken as the earlier of the date on which either: the company is aware that probate has been granted, the estate has been finalised and notification has been made by the executor(s) to the Trust that a distribution will be made, or when a distribution is received from the estate. Receipt of a legacy, in whole or in part, is only considered probable when the amount can be measured reliably and the company has been notified of the executor’s intention to make a distribution. Where legacies have been notified to the company, or the company is aware of the granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material.

0

Donated services or facilities are recognised when the company has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use of the company of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably.

- 9 -

M.A. Centre UK (A company limited by guarantee)

Notes to the accounts (continued) for the year ended 31st March 2023

1. Accounting policies (continued)

e) Income (continued)

On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the company which is the amount the company would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.

Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable.

f) Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Support costs are those costs incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the company. Governance costs are those incurred in connection with administration of the company and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements.

g) Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

A review for impairment of a fixed asset is carried out if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of any fixed asset may not be recoverable. Shortfalls between the carrying value of fixed assets and their recoverable amounts are recognised as impairments. Impairment losses are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities incorporating income and expenditure account.

Tangible fixed assets are carried at cost, net of depreciation and any provision for impairment. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:

Land - Nil Buildings - 2% Straight line Computer equipment - 15% Reducing balance Fixtures & Fittings - 15% Reducing balance

h) Interest receivable

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the company; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the Bank.

i) Operating leases

Rentals under operating leases are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities incorporating income and expenditure account on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

M.A. Centre UK

(A company limited by guarantee)

Notes to the accounts (continued) for the year ended 31st March 2023

1. Accounting policies (continued)

j) Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

k) Cash at bank and in hand

Cast at bank and in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

l) Liabilities and provisions

Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the balance sheet date as a result of a part event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably. Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the company anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.

m) Financial instruments

The company only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

n) Foreign currencies

Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at rates of exchange ruling at the balance sheet date.

Transactions in foreign currencies are translated into sterling at the rate ruling on the date of the transaction.

Exchange gains and losses are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities incorporating income and expenditure account.

o) Fund accounting

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the company and which have not been designated for other purposes.

p) Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgment

Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Critical accounting estimates and assumptions:

The company makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are in relation to the useful life of fixed assets, which are written off in accordance with the depreciation policies in Note g).
