TRUSTEES' ANNUAL REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
The Trustees present their report and the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2020. The trustees have adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) "Accounting and Reporting by Charities" (FRS102) in preparing the annual report and financial statements of the charity.
Structure, Governance and Management
Governing document
The charity is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association, dated 30 August 2007.
Organisation
The charity is a limited company, incorporated on 30 August 2007. The company was registered as a charity on 22 January 2010, number 1133681. The charity is run by a Principal who administers and manages the day-to- operations of the charity.
Relationships with other groups, charities and individuals
The charity has a very close relationship with Maurice Sedwell (Savile Row) Ltd., of which A.M. Ramroop is a director and ultimate shareholder.
Risk policy
The trustees have examined the major strategic, business and operational risks which the charity faces and confirm that systems have been established to enable regular reports to be produced so that the necessary steps can be taken to lessen these risks.
Objectives and activities
The principal activity of the company is that of teaching tailoring skills to students who do not want to go on to higher education.
Achievements and performance
This year has been an uneventful year with Savile Row Academy (SRA) with cancellations and refunds of student fees.
Due to social distancing, lockdowns and quarantine measures SRA has not been able to operate normally.
Although our capacity is ten students due to limited space, we could now only accommodate seven.
Presently, we are able to deliver two courses with two groups of six persons (6). To enable efficient delivery of the courses SRA have had to employ more staff. All staff are former SRA trainees who have attained the level of expertise for which we have become known.
Trainees are allowed to use the classroom on evenings, Saturdays and holidays. Most take advantage of these opportunities.
Financial review
New course guides have been written, students interviewed and SRA Hand Book reviewed for 2022. Due to unaffordability of premises on Savile Row, the school will be relocated.
Plans for future periods
It is expected that another summer course will not be delivered in 2022 unless new premises are found by April 2022.
Research and development
The courses will be redesigned to be delivered in three years.

TRUSTEES' ANNUAL REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
Trustees' responsibilities in relation to the financial statements
The trustees (who are also directors of 31 December 2020 for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charitable company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP 2015 (FRS102);
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
This report was approved by the board of directors and trustees on 23 September 2021 and signed on its behalf.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT
TO THE TRUSTEES OF SAVILE ROW ACADEMY LIMITED
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the company for the year ended 31 December 2020 which are set out on pages 4 to 14
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity trustees of the company (and also its director 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 this examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, 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:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
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
-
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 (FRS102).
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.
