Report of The Trustees

for the year ended 31 March 2023

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing document

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006 on 26th April 2011 with a registered charity number 1137877.

Organisational structure

The nursery is organised such that the day to day running of the nursery has been delegated to the Charity Manager. The Trustees are consulted on all material issues and determine the strategic direction of the charity. Trustees meet four times in a year and as and when required to review the operations of the charity.

Recruitment and appointment of new trustees

The management of the nursery is the responsibility of the trustees who are elected and coopted under the terms of the trust deed.

Policies adopted for the induction and training of trustees

The induction process for any newly appointed member of the trustees comprises an initial meeting with the chairperson and other trustees, followed by a series of short meetings with the chairperson on the powers and responsibilities of the trustees.

New Trustees are given an understanding of the charity’s objectives and the requirements of the Charity Commission. They are also encouraged to attend appropriate external training events where these will facilitate the understanding of their role. Charity Commission bulletins/ updates is also forwarded to Trustees as and when issued.

Risk management

The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate control. The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the nursery is exposed. In particular those related to the operations and finances of the nursery, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate our exposure to the major risks and to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

To enhance the development and education of children under statutory school leaving age whose parents live and/or work in the London borough of Southwark and surrounding areas without distinction of sex, race, age and political and religious opinion.

Each year our trustees review our objectives and activities to ensure they continue to reflect our aims. In carrying out this review the trustees have considered the Charity Commission’s general guidance on children education.

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

K & O CHILDCARE LTD

Report of The Trustees for the year ended 31 March 2023

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales, the Charities Act 2011, Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed 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, including the income and expenditure, of the charity for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to

· Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

Observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP;
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.

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed. 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 responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the charity and financial information included on the charity’s website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions

This report was approved by the trustees on 29 December 2023 and signed on its behalf.

Miss Charlene Jones Chairperson (For The Trustee)

K & O CHILDCARE LTD Account year ended 31 March 2023

Independent Examiner's Report

To the Trustees of

K & O CHILDCARE LTD

I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2023 set out on pages five to nine.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under Section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act)) and that an independent examination is required. The charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of IFA.

It is my responsibility to: - examine the accounts under Section 145 of the 2011 Act to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under Section l45(5)(b) of the 2011 Act); and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of the independent examiner's report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view ' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statements below.

Independent examiner's statement

In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:

accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; or

• the accounts do not accord with such records; or • the accounts do not comply with relevant accounting requirements under section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 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 Charities SORP (FRS102).

I 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.
