## **Mossley Community Association** 

## **Report of the Management Committee for the year ending 31[st] December 2021** 

## **Object and Activities** 

## **Objects** 

The main objects of the charity are to promote the benefit of the inhabitants of Mossley and neighbourhood without distinction of sex, sexual orientation, race, political or religious affiliation or disability. This shall be done by maintaining a community centre to advance education and facilities for recreation, arts and leisure with the object of improving the conditions of life for the inhabitants. 

## **Activities undertaken for public benefit in relation to objects** 

In planning our activities for the year we have kept in mind the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit and at our Management meetings have organised events to further local community spirit and ensure the Centre offers a well maintained, affordable space to a wide variety of organisations.  All requests from the community for use of the Centre are considered providing their activities comply with our objectives 

## **Achievements and Performance and Chair’s report** 

For most of 2020 the center was closed due to Covid restrictions, except for Skools Out who operated whenever they could to supply a service to essential workers. The center agreed to reduce the rent for this period. 

As the Covid restrictions were relaxed, in 2021 we were able to start welcoming some groups back to the Centre in February and were fully open again in July.  Many of the trustees were on a Covid Sub group who fought their way through the many changing and ambiguous rules to make the center a safe place as we reopened 

Following two taster sessions in the Summer, in September we opened Next Steps, a weekly mums and toddlers group.  This has been very popular and now has around 20 toddlers attending each week.  And our Mums’ Wellbeing group is now in it’s second year.  Our Drumming Group and Garden group also continue and are now well established. 

We applied for and received government grants available to us in order to keep the center financially stable 

To stay engaged with the community we organised an outdoor Easter bunny walk to surrounding houses. We have held a series of Car Boot sales on the market ground which was a great success and we plan to more this year. 

We have engaged with the Mossley Reporter and they have given us a very good write up at each event 

We sadly lost one of our trustees to cancer earlier this year. Linda Sidebottom was a much loved and hardworking trustee and it is a great loss to us all. 

At our AGM in October we were pleased to welcome David Coulter and Caroline Rogers as new members of the Committee. 

In November we held a Volunteer Celebration evening to give recognition of the support and help the give to the Centre.  This was attended by Brenda Warrington, Leader of Tameside Council. Our big project for 2022 is to renovate and upgrade the kitchen to catering standards and this is progressing well. 

I offer my huge thanks to all our volunteers without whom we would not be able to continue the good work of Mossley Community Centre 

## **Financial Review** 

As the Covid restrictions were gradually reduced we welcomed back most our long established groups and some new ones, and monthly income gradually increased to almost pre Covid levels. 

However the energy crisis of many suppliers collapsing towards the end of the year, including ours, has led to a significant increase in our energy costs, and with further rises expected in 2022, this will have a significant effect on our annual budget.

## **Structure Governance and Management Governing document** 

Mossley Community Association works to its Articles of Association and Byelaws. There is a management committee consisting of four honorary officers with the maximum and minimum number of general members of the Management Committee determined by the Company in General Meeting. All the members of the management committee are trustees and they are elected by the membership at the AGM or co-opted by majority vote at a Trustee meeting.  One third of Trustees are required to stand for re-election each year.  Management meetings take place monthly. 

## **Company status** 

The company is limited by guarantee and all members have agreed to contribute a sum, not exceeding £1, in the event of a winding-up. The number of guarantees at 31[st] December 2016 was 12 

## **Statement of Management Committee responsibilities** 

The Management Committee is responsible for preparing the Report of the Management Committee and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. 

Company law requires the Management Committee to prepare financial statements for each financial period. Under that law the Management Committee has elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (effective April 2008) (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice applicable to Smaller Entities). Under company law the Management Committee must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and the income and expenditure of the charitable company for that year.  In preparing these financial statements the Management Committee is required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

- make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business. 

The Management Committee is responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charitable company’s transactions and disclose at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable it 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 taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

Members of the Management Committee, who are directors for the purposes of company law, and trustees for the purposes of charity law, who served during the year and up to the date of this report are set out on page 1. 

This report has been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (issued in March 2005) and in accordance with the provisions applicable to companies subject to the small companies’ regime of the Companies Act 2006. 

Approved by the Management Committee and signed on its behalf by:

## **Mossley Community Association** 

## **Report of the Management Committee for the year ending 31[st] December 2021** 

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Mossley Community Association** 

I report on the accounts of the company for the year ending 31 December 2021 which are set out on pages 6 to 12. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 43(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. 

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to: 

- 

   - examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; 

- to follow the procedure laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145 (5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and 

- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner's report** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with 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 statement below. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

In the course of my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

- (1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements: 

   - to keep  accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and 

   - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities 

have not been met;  or 

- (2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
