## **Trustees' Annual Report for the year ended 31 August 2020** 

## **Statement of  the Directors Trustees's Responsibilities** 

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of  the Companies Act 2006, the Charities Act 2011 and the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Notwithstanding the explicit requirement in the extant statutory regulations,the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008, to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the SORP 2005, in view of the fact that the SORP 2005 has been withdrawn, the Trustees determined to interpret this responsibility as requiring them to follow current best practice and prepare the accounts according to the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities)  2015 (as amended by the Bulletin issued in February 2016) . 

In particular, the Companies Act 2006 and charity law require the Board of Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity as at the end of the financial year and of the surplus or deficit of the charity. In preparing those financial statements the Board is required to :- 

- to prepare the accounts in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). 

- select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate 

to presume that the charity will continue in business; 

- state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of 

recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material 

departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

The law requires that the trustees must not approve the accounts unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the surplus or deficit of the charity for the year. 

The Trustees are also responsible for maintaining adequate accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which are sufficient to show and explain the charity's transactions and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006 and comply with regulations made under the Charities Act. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

The Trustees are also responsible for the contents of the Trustees' report, and the statutory responsibility of the Independent Examiner in relation to the Trustees' report is limited to examining the report and ensuring that , on the face of the report, there are no material inconsistencies with the figures disclosed in the financial statements.

## **Report of the Independent Examiner to the Trustees of the charitable company on the accounts for the year ended 31 August 2020** 

I report on the financial statements of the charitable company on pages 10 to 25 for the year ended 31 August 2020 which have been prepared in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) and  with the Financial Reporting Standard 102, (effective 1st January 2016) as modified by FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities)  2015 (as amended by the Bulletin issued in February 2016) published by the Charity Commission in England & Wales (CCEW) , effective January 2015 (The SORP), under the historical cost convention and the accounting policies set out on page 16. 

## **Respective responsibilities of the Trustees and the Independent Examiner** 

As described on page 6, the charitable company's Trustees, who are also the Directors of the Company for the purposes of Company law, are responsible for the preparation of  the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice , applicable to smaller entities, and for being satisfied that the financial statements give a true and fair view. 

The Trustees consider that the audit requirement of  Section 144(1) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) does not apply, and that there is no requirement in  the memorandum and articles of the charity for the conducting of an audit, and that the accounts do not require an audit in accordance with Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and that no member or members have requested an audit pursuant to Section 476 of the the Companies Act 2006. As a consequence, the Trustees have elected that the financial statements be subject to independent examination. 

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under any legal provision, or otherwise, and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:- 

a) examine the accounts under Section 145 of the Act; 

b) follow the procedures in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act and; 

c) state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of Independent Examiner's Statement and scope of work undertaken** 

I conducted my examination in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act, setting out the duties of an Independent Examiner in relation to the conducting of an Independent Examination.  An Independent Examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charitable company  and of the accounting systems employed by the charitable company and a comparison of the financial statements presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements, and seeking explanations from you, asTrustees, concerning such matters. The purpose of the examination is to establish as far as possible that there have been no breaches of charity legislation and that the financial statements comply with the SORP, on a test basis, of evidence relevant to the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. 

The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit , and information supplied by theTrustees in the course of the examination is not subjected to audit tests or enquiries, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the financial statements, and in particular, I express no opinion as to whether the financial statements give a true and fair view of the affairs of the charity, and my report is limited to the matters set out in the statement below. 

I planned and performed my examination so as to satisfy myself that the objectives of the Independent Examination are achieved and before finalising the report I obtained written assurances from the Trustees of all material matters.

## **Independent Examiner's Statement, Report and Opinion** 

Subject to the limitations upon the scope of my work as detailed above , in connection with my examination, I can confirm that :- 

The accounts of this charitable company  are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006; 

This  is a report in respect of an examination carried out under 145 of the Act  and in accordance with General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act which may be applicable; 

and that  no matter has come to my attention in connection with my examination  which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements :- 

to keep accounting records in accordance with  Section 386 of the Companies Act 2006 and Section 130 of The Charities Act 2011; 

to prepare financial statements which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and The Charities Act 2011 and; 

have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and  and with the methods and principles set out in the FRS102 Statement of Recommended Practice - Accounting and Reporting by Charities (effective January 2016) 

have not been met or to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in my report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached;

## **Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 August 2020** 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## _**Policies relating to the production of the accounts.**_ 

## **Basis of preparation and accounting convention** 

The accounts have been prepared on the accruals basis, under the historical cost convention, and in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard 102, (effective 1st January 2016) and 'FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities)  2015 (as amended by the Bulletin issued in February 2016) published by the Charity Commission in England & Wales (CCEW)  ,effective January 2016, (The SORP), and in accordance with all applicable law in the charity's jurisdiction of registration, except that the charity has prepared the financial statements in accordance with the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities)  2015 (as amended by the Bulletin issued in February 2016)  in preference to the previous SORP, the SORP 2005, which has been withdrawn, notwithstanding the fact that the extant statutory regulations, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 refer explicitly to the SORP 2005. This has been done to accord with current best practice. 

## _**Policies relating to expenditure on goods and services provided to the charity.**_ 

## **Recognition of liabilities and expenditure** 

A liability, and the related expenditure, is recognised when a legal or constructive obligation exists as a result of a past event, and when it is more likely than not that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and when the amount of the obligation can be measured or reliably estimated.. 

Liabilities arising from future funding commitments and constructive obligations, including performance related grants, where the timing or the amount of the future expenditure required to settle the  obligation are uncertain, give rise to a provision in the accounts, which is reviewed at the accounting year end. The provision is increased to reflect any increases in liabilities, and is decreased by the utilisation of any provision within the period, and reversed if any provision is no longer required. These movements are charged or credited to the respective funds and activities to which the provision relates. 

## **Volunteers** 

In accordance with the SORP, and in recognition of the difficulties in placing a monetary value on the contribution from volunteers, the contribution of volunteers is not included within the income of the charity. However, the trustees value the significant contribution made to the activities of the charity by unpaid volunteers and this is described more fully in Note5. 

## _**Policies relating to assets, liabilities and provisions and other matters.**_ 

## _**Tangible fixed assets**_ 

Tangible fixed assets are measured at their original cost value, or subsequent revaluation, or if donated, as described above. Cost value includes all costs expended in bringing the asset into its intended working condition. 

Depreciation has been provided at the following rates in order to write off the assets to their anticipated residual value ove estimated useful lives. 

Freehold premises 2 % straight line Plant and machinery 20 % straight line

## **Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 August 2020** 

## **Debtors** 

Debtors are measured at their recoverable amounts at the balance sheet date. 

## **Creditors and provisions** 

If this applies , enter suitable text to comply with  SORP 10.81. Describe the basis on which creditors and provisions for liabilities and charges are recognised and measured 

## **Financial instruments including cash and bank balances** 

Cash held by the charity is included at the amount actually held and counted at the year end. Bank balances, whether in credit or overdrawn,  are shown at the amounts properly reconciled to the bank statements. 

## **Pensions - defined contribution schemes** 

The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme.  Contributions are charged to the profit and loss account as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the scheme. 

## **2 Liability to taxation** 

The Trustees consider that the charity satisfies the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the Charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by chapter 3 part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively on the specific charitable objects of the charity and for no other purpose. Value Added Tax is not recoverable by the charity, and is therefore included in the relevant costs in the Statement of Financial Activities. 

## **3 Winding up or dissolution of the charity** 

If upon winding up or dissolution of the charity there remain any assets, after the satisfaction of all debts and liabilities, the assets represented by the accumulated fund shall be transferred to some other charitable body or bodies having similar objects to the charity. 

## **4 Net surplus before tax in the financial year**

|Depreciation of owned fixed assets|1,362|1,464|
|Pension costs|3,089|2,476|



## **5 The contribution of volunteers** 

The charity depends on the support of its volunteers, which is much appreciated. 

The arrangements with volunteers are difficult to value precisely in monetary terms and have not been recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities. The volunteers and the charity accept and agree that no contract  of employment  is created  by these arrangements.
