## TRUSTEES’ REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS‘ REPORT) 

## FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2020 

The Trustees, who are also Directors for their time of office for the purposes of the Companies Act, have pleasure in presenting their report and unaudited financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 August 2020. 

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006 and “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) (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2016) 

## Objectives and activities 

To enhance the development and education of children, primarily under statutory school age, by encouraging parents to understand and provide for the needs of their children through community groups by: 

- Offering appropriate play, education and care facilities and training courses, together with the right of parents to take responsibility for, and to become involved in, the activities of such groups, ensuring that the groups offer opportunities for all children, whatever their race, culture, religion, means or ability. 

- « Encouraging the study of the needs of such children and their families and promoting public interest in and recognition of, such needs. 

- « Instigating, adhering to and furthering the aims and objective of the Pre-school Learning Alliance. 

## Public Benefit 

Throughout the year the charity has operated with due regard to its objectives as stated above and the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit, with the provision of pre school facilities for children between the ages of two and a half and five within the local community. 

The charity encourages the involvement of the wider community in various fundraising activities such as the Christmas Bazaar and the Easter Egg Hunt, however these events have had to be put on hold due to the restrictions in place as a result of the Covid-19 pandemic. 

The Trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities they charity should undertake. 

## Achievements and performance 

The charity was inspected by Ofsted on 21 January 2020, and received a rating of ‘Good’ in all areas. 

The effects of the worldwide Covid-19 pandemic began impacting in the UK from March 2020. this has led to a significant shut-down of both social and economic activity in the UK and in many other countries around the globe. 

This has significantly impacted on the charity's activities during the year, and resulted in the charity closing to all but the children of key workers during the lockdown period. Government funding has been ongoing throughout this period, and the charity has fully re-opened following the year end. 

It is impossible to determine the impact of the pandemic on future activities of the charity. 

## Financial review 

The charity has income for the year of £132,325 (2019: £124,679) and expenditure of £142,017 (2019: £135,266) resulting in a deficit of income over expenditure for the year of £9,692 (2019: £10,587). 

## Reserves Policy 

The charity aims to retain reserves amounting to at least 3 month's expenditure, being £35,504 (2019: £33,817) based on current expenditure levels. Although results for this year have taken reserves to below that level at £2,700 (2019: £12,392), it is hoped that future activity will enable the charity to fulfil its aims.
