**Report of the Management Committee for the year ending 31 December 2025** 

## **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** 

Another successful year for the centre 

Several new ‘in house’ groups stated up and established ones flourished. 

These are mostly facilitated by volunteers. We have in excess of 100 regular volunteers at the centre and we started a reward monthly draw to recognise them. 

We got funding for Digital Inclusion and adapted the electrics in room 1 to accommodate this. 

Claire from Ecclesiastical continued to support the centre both with herself volunteering and the Company funding the centre. 

We continued a partnership with Emmaus and some Companions help at the centre on Solidarity Day. 

Early Years facilitated by Olivia had funding to operate all the year, this included Next Steps, mum and Baby Group and Dads group. 

We held our first Scarecrow festival. It was funded by donations. It was very successful and we plan to add it to our annual calendar. 

At the AGM we welcomed 2 new Trustees, Elizabeth and Sue. Sadly David had to leave us later in the year to start a new life in France. We thanked him for his help with continued efforts to renew the lease. 

In October we were nominated for the Kings Award.

**Mossley Community Association** 

## **Report of the Management Committee for the year ending 31 December 2025** 

A very successful December with wreath making, Santa visits for Next Steps and the Tree Festival. 

Throughout the year we had many successful grant applications to mainly fund ‘in house’ groups. 

During 2025 we continued our 7 years of negotiations with TMBC concerning the new Lease. Towards the end of the year we met with a new team from TMBC and they were very encouraging in our meetings. 

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. 

2026 will be a very exciting year for the center with both the lease and funding grants. Big announcements are coming! 

## **Financial Review** 

2025 was also a successful year financially for the centre. Free reserves increased from £21,843 to £28,092. The trustees are happy that this is an appropriate level of funds. 

## **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[s][t] December 2025 was 8.

**Mossley Community Association** 

**Report of the Management Committee for the year ending 31 December 2025** 

## **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:

## Independent examiner ’s report 

## to the members of  Mossley Community Association 

I report on the accounts of the company for the year ended 31 December 2025 which are set out on pages 7 to 18. 

## **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.

Mossley Community Association 

Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 December 2025 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

The principal accounting policies adopted, judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows: 

## **a Basis of preparation** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006. 

The charity has applied Update Bulletin 1 as published on 2 February 2016 and does not include a cash flow statement on the grounds that it is applying FRS 102 section 1A. 

Mossley Community Association meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note. 

## **b Reconciliation with previous Generally Accepted Accounting Practice** 

In preparing the accounts, the trustees have considered whether in applying the accounting policies required by FRS 102 and the Charities SORP FRS 102 the restatement of comparative items was required. No such restatement was required. 

## **c Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis** 

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern. 

There are no key judgments which the trustees have made which have a significant effect on the accounts. 

The trustees do not consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period.

## **d Income** 

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the 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 reliably and is not deferred. 

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

## **e Donated services and facilities** 

Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), general volunteer time is not recognised; refer to the trustees’ annual report for more information about their contribution. 

On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt. 

## **f 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 or payable by the Bank.

## **g Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of charity. 

Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose. 

Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the charity’s work or for specific projects being undertaken by the charity. 

## **h Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT** 

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. 

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred. 

## **i Operating leases** 

Operating leases are leases in which the title to the assets, and the risks and rewards of ownership, remain with the lessor. Rental charges are charged on a straight line basis over the term of the lease. 

## **j Tangible fixed assets** 

Individual fixed assets costing £1,000 or more are capitalised at cost, the depreciation rates used are: 

Disabled access ramp 

20 years 

## **k Debtors** 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. 

## **l Cash at bank and in hand** 

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account. 

## **m Creditors and provisions** 

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

## **N Financial instruments** 

The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments.

## **2 Legal status of the charity**
