SOUTH DEVON SCHOOL OF GYMNASTICS (REGISTERED NUMBER: 07034719)

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2020

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 August 2020. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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) (effective 1 January 2019).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and Public Benefit

The objective of the charity is to offer quality gymnastic coaching to people of all ages. The charity's Trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit.

Significant activities

The charity promotes community participation in healthy recreation, for the benefit of the inhabitants of South Devon and the surrounding districts, by the provision of facilities and coaching for gymnastics.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

Covid has played a big part in the last twelve months, with some staff being furloughed and some still being paid to support the gymnasts with their home coaching. This again has been a challenging time and with the support of the government, assisting with staffing and general running costs, the club has been able to survive where others have not been so lucky. All members have been able to support the club to continue and let us hope the next twelve months are more stable to allow the club to recover.

Our cafeteria is now open. Thanks to the builders who have finished the kitchen area to a high standard, everyone will be able to enjoy this area which has been sadly missed. Over time, with the help from the volunteers, this will bring in some welcome revenue to the club. An extra toilet has also been installed for the use of the gymnasts on the main floor area. The main lighting has been uprated with different units which will reduce the overall running costs and give a better illuminated area. The heating will need to be looked at before the coming winter.

We located a second-hand floor, which unfortunately came from a club that did not survive the first Covid lockdown, and this has been used by all gymnasts and been positively received. Thanks to the volunteers who gave up their evening to install the floor. The floor was able to be purchased through a grant from the government.

The club can only survive by the continued support from Nicci, Rachel and all of the young leaders and coaching staff to allow each individual gymnast to reach their own goal, whether at recreational or competing at a National level. We have a great team of fundraisers and volunteers who offer their time to support the club in making the club what it is today.

Thanks to all from the Trustees.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Reserves policy

The Trustees monitor the level of reserves required to ensure the smooth operation of the School on a continuing basis. While the results for the year ended 31 August 2020 show a surplus and the current year to date continues on a similar basis, the Trustees consider that the current level of reserves is necessary due to the continuing long term uncertainty over the premises being used, the requirement for renewal of equipment and the possibility of future property acquisition.

The charity had total incoming resources of £211,055 (2019: £221,576) and total resources expended of £169,903 (2019: £194,314). The surplus of £41,152 (2019: £27,262) has been transferred to reserves.

The Board has considered the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic and are comfortable with the level of reserves held at the year end and that the use of the going concern basis is appropriate.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF SOUTH DEVON SCHOOL OF GYMNASTICS

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of South Devon School of Gymnastics ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 August 2020.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's 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 charity'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

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:

  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

  2. 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

  3. 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.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2020

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

South Devon School of Gymnastics is a company limited by guarantee incorporated in England. The registered office is 8 Brownings End, Ogwell, Newton Abbot, Devon, TQ12 6YZ.

The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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) (effective 1 January 2015)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006.

Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes.

The financial statements are presented in Sterling (£).

Going concern

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which the trustees believe to be appropriate for the reasons set out in the Trustees' Report.

Financial reporting standard 102 - reduced disclosure exemptions

The charitable company has taken advantage of the following disclosure exemptions in preparing these financial statements, as permitted by FRS 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland':

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Income from government and other grants, whether 'capital' grants or 'revenue' grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, 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 accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Charitable activities

Costs of charitable activities are incurred by the charity to raise funds for its charitable purposes and includes costs of all fundraising activities, events and non-charitable trading.

Governance costs

These are indirect costs attributable to the management function that supports the direct provision of charitable services.

Allocation and apportionment of costs

Where possible expenditure is allocated directly to an activity. Items of expenditure which contribute to more than one activity are apportioned on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2020

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Allocation and apportionment of costs

Support costs which are not attributable to a single activity but rather provide the organisational infrastructure that enables output producing activities to take place are allocated on the same basis as expenditure incurred directly in undertaking an activity.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Short leasehold - written off over the term of the lease Gymnastic equipment - 10% on cost Office equipment - 50% on cost

Tangible fixed assets are included at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses.

Impairment of non-financial assets

At each reporting date non-financial assets not carried at fair value, like plant and equipment, are reviewed to determine whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If there is an indication of possible impairment, the recoverable amount which is the higher of value in use and the fair value less cost to sell, is estimated and compared with the carrying amount. If the recoverable amount is lower, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount and an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit and loss.

Stocks

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to sell.

Taxation

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

Fund accounting

All of the charity's funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustee in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.

Operating lease commitments

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.

Financial instruments

The company only enters into basic financial instruments transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other accounts receivable and payable, loans from banks and other third parties.

Debt instruments like loans and other accounts receivable and payable are initially measured at present value of the future payments and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Debt instruments that are payable or receivable within one year, typically trade debtors and trade creditors, are measured, initially and subsequently, at the undiscounted amount of cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received.

SOUTH DEVON SCHOOL OF GYMNASTICS

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2020

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Financial instruments

Financial assets measured at cost and amortised cost are assessed at the end of each reporting period for evidence of impairment and if found, an impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the liability is extinguished, that is when the contractual obligation is discharged, cancelled or expires.

Cash and cash equivalents includes cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts, when applicable, are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

Judgements

The company considers on an annual basis the judgements that are made by management when applying its significant accounting policies that would have the most significant effect on amounts that are recognised in the financial statements. The trustees consider there are no such significant judgements.

Provisions

Provisions are recognised when the company has a legal or constructive obligation at the reporting date as a result of a past event, it is probable that the company will be required to settle the obligation and the amount of the obligation can be reliably estimated. Provisions are recognised at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date.
