BRAMPTON AND BEYOND COMMUNITY TRUST

TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

The Trustees, who are Directors for the purposes of company law, present the annual report together with the financial statements of the charitable company for the year ended 31 March 2021. The Annual report serves the purposes of both a Trustees' report and a directors’ report under company law .

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

The Trust has continued to comply with its primary charitable purposes by providing space and other support to a wide range of services for the benefit of those residing within the area of benefit. This was achieved through the operation of Brampton Community Centre, within which opportunities have been made available to access childcare and early years education, family support, arts and crafts, learning activities, health and wellbeing support, and providing individual support to the disadvantaged.

The Trust has engaged with statutory and other Third Sector providers on health and wellbeing activities, including the National Health Service, regarding its Integrated Care Communities (ICC) initiative, establishing a group for the local area. This work provides a solid basis for developing the Community Centre’s role as a wellbeing hub in partnership with others. Allied to the Brampton Community Centre, the Trust also operates an Ofsted registered childcare facility offering nursery and early years education for and to local people. The Community Centre also acts as a referral point for specialist advice and support agencies. It also provides a small number of offices for the Third Sector.

PUBLIC BENEFIT

Despite the impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic, Trustees have, throughout the year, sought to meet the objects set out in the Trust’s Articles of Association and comply with its responsibilities as a registered charity. In undertaking its work, the Trustees confirm that they have complied with the requirements of section 4 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the Charity Commission for England and Wales’s guidance on public benefit.

NATURE OF GOVERNING DOCUMENT

The Trust is a charitable company limited by guarantee, registered with Companies House in July 2010 (07304443) and registered as a charity with the Charity Commission in September 2010 (1138044). Its memorandum and articles of association govern the charitable company.

The registered company address is Brampton Community Centre, Union Lane, Brampton, Cumbria, CA8 1BX.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

RECRUITMENT AND APPOINTMENT OF TRUSTEES

The Trust is controlled by its membership, who are residents of its area of benefit. The Members elect all Trustees, a third of whom stand down by rotation, at the Annual General Meeting. The Trustees can co-opt Members as Trustees during the year, but these must stand down at the following Annual General Meeting. Trustees cannot undertake paid work for the Trust.

Audits of Trustee skills are regularly carried out, and all Trustees are expected to engage with and complete all training modules. If skill gaps are identified within the Board, emphasis is placed on these areas as part of the recruitment process. Advertisements are placed on the Community Centre website, and applications are invited from all sectors of the community. Members of the Board of Trustees, led by the Chairman, carry out reviews.

INDUCTION AND TRAINING OF TRUSTEES

An induction programme is followed, including site visits and meetings with the Senior Management Team. Each new Trustee is paired with an existing Board member through an informal "buddy system". Supporting information from the Charity Commission and Companies House relating to the duties and responsibilities of Trustees is also provided to each new Trustee. Details of relevant courses are shared with Trustees to increase their knowledge and understanding of their role.

ORGANISATION STRUCTURE

The governance of the charity is the responsibility of the Board of Trustees.

The Chairman has responsibility for implementing strategy and overseeing the Trust's dayto-day running, which is delivered through the Senior Management Team. The senior management team consists of:

Community Centre Manager: Emma Thorburn (to 31[st] August 2020) James Burke (from 1[st] September 2020)

Children’s Area Manager: Lachmi Sarang

The Board of Trustees has overall responsibility for the governance and delivery of services, including agreeing strategy. The Board meets every two months and takes particular interest in specific areas of the Trust. All conflicts of interest are declared at Board meetings, with an expression of interest noted at all meetings regarding agenda items.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

Like all similar organisations, the Trust’s operations have been impacted by the COVID-19 Pandemic. This resulted in the closure of the Community Centre and stopping of all outward reaching activities, save for facilitating the local subsistence hot and cold food project and very limited, but continuous, childcare for “key workers” in line with Government Policy. It also continued to provide space for the local housing association and the Armed Forces Covenant. In addition, working in partnership with the local GP Practice, Brampton Community Centre was extensively used as a COVID Vaccination Centre.

The Trust continued to work with similar organisations through the Carlisle and District Federation of Community Organisations (Carlisle Matters) to collectively strengthen its ability to continue delivering services to the community. The Trust also continues to occupy its Community Centre site alongside Impact Housing Association’s 38-bed Extra Care Housing facility.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

The year-end shows the Trust held £107k unrestricted funds and had enough cash reserves to cover the unspent restricted and designated funds it held in grants, which amounted to £31k. Nonetheless, the prospects for the Trust’s operations remain challenging, with cash flow being critical. The Trust has taken advantage of all available grant funding and will continue to do so while also looking at its operating model to safeguard the future.

The recent partial refurbishment of part of the Community Centre has not entirely produced the planned increases in revenue. The Pandemic, in part, is responsible for this, but there are other reasons too. These have been identified, and a further review of the financial and operational systems to reduce costs, increase efficiency, and provide improved marketing started in the latter half of the year and is ongoing. Locality and Key Fund loans obtained in early 2019 helped to underpin the financial position. Repaying these loans will have a financial effect for several years.

Although Government assistance has eased the impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic, for example, via furlough and service sector grants, the downturn in income has been further exacerbated as users and clients rethink their plans and commitments. The Trust is examining how best to ensure occupation, use, and revenue increase as the Pandemic restrictions ease.

The charitable company uses basic financial instruments, including trade debtors and creditors that arise directly from its operations. The main risks associated with these are cash flow, liquidity, reputation, and interest risk. The charitable company manages its financial commitments to ensure sufficient liquidity to meet all foreseeable needs.

The attached accounts comply with current statutory requirements and with the requirements of the charity’s governing instrument.

BRAMPTON AND BEYOND COMMUNITY TRUST

TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021 (CONTINUED)

POLICY ON RESERVES

The Trust’s unrestricted funds are being assembled to provide cash reserves equivalent to three months operating costs (circa 63K). This adheres to the reserves policy to provide sufficient cash flow resilience and a buffer for uninterrupted services. Alongside this contingency reserve, designated funds are held to support the development of services and improve our environment. Other unrestricted funds are earmarked to support long-standing plans for a capital repairs programme, which it is hoped will progress during 2021.

Despite careful planning, the Trust recognises that maintaining the appropriate cash reserves will be heavily challenged in 2021 due to the direct impact of COVID-19 on our services and communities and the subsequent financial pressures, recovery plans and broader economic and market uncertainties now faced.

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

Income Recognition

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to item(s) of 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 and is not deferred.

Income received in advance of events or provision of other specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met.

Expenditure Recognition

All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading those aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings, they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Expenditure includes any VAT as this cannot be recovered. All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned between the activities they contribute to on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis.

Interest Receivable

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity, this is normally upon notification of the interest paid by the Bank.

Donated goods and facilities

Charities Sorp 2016 (FRS 102) requires income recognition in respect of donated goods, facilities and services at the point of receipt, at fair value. This requirement can only be relaxed if it is either not practical or the costs of recognition on receipt outweigh the benefits to the users of the accounts and the charity of this information.
