TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2021

The trustees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2021.

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

The charity’s core objective is to lower barriers to sport and promote health equality within the local area. It achieves this by creating and running community programmes that increase access to sport for targeted groups who may otherwise have been marginalized and/or unable to participate.

Currently, the charity runs programmes under four main themes:

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

Achievements and performance

The Foundation continually looks to expand the scope of its programmes to maximise the benefit to the local community within the constraints of the available funding. Via these programmes our objective is to engage with and support the following groups:

2

Through our various initiatives, we have engaged with and supported thousands of people including

Our objective is to see these numbers increase each year and with the support of Coventry Rugby Club we are able to offer the use of the world class facilities of the Butts Park Arena.

The trustees and Coventry Rugby Club Community staff have taken heed to the guidance and regulations set by the Charity Commission regarding all activities. During the challenging period of Covid rigorous health and safety procedures have been introduced to ensure that we can still deliver some activities in a safe environment. This has enabled us to engage with people at a time when they most need support.

COVENTRY RUGBY COMMUNITY FOUNDATION LIMITED TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2021 (CONTINUED)

New plans are being developed for future projects and work is being undertaken alongside the Coventry Rugby Club. The objective of these future projects is to develop facilities which will enable the Foundation to deliver sports activities coupled with educational programmes.

Additional funding is being sought to facilitate the new and developing projects. Plans include the delivery of general sport as well as rugby into schools and the community. The aim is to involve more participants into the projects, be they children or adults, able bodied or disabled.

It is anticipated that in due course as well as rugby and sport, projects will focus on wellbeing and education in the hope that participants can benefit both physically and academically.

The Foundation spent £86,418 on charitable activities during the year ending September 2021. We would like to thank the following organisations for their generous donations during the last year:

The Albert Hunt Trust The Aviva Community Fund The Builders Charity The Bruce Wake Charitable Trust The Clothworkers Foundation Coventry City Council Coventry General Charities The Eveson Charitable Trust The Foyle Foundation The Green Hall Foundation

3

Groundwork UK The Heart of England Community Foundation The Hedley Foundation The National Lottery Community Fund The Newfield Charitable Trust The Sheldon Trust Think Active The Toy Trust The Wheelwrights Charity West Midlands Police Various contributions from private individuals

Without these generous contributions Coventry Rugby Community Foundation charitable work would not be possible.

We would also like to thank Coventry Rugby Club for the support and use of their facilities.

Financial review

The financial transactions of the charity are shown on pages 6 to 13. The trustees consider the financial position of the charity to be satisfactory.

The charity, at this stage, has no intention of building long term free reserves. It will retain sufficient funds to fulfil pledges made for projects, etc., but the intention is to put raised funds back into the community projects as quickly as possible, to achieve their maximum purpose.

COVENTRY RUGBY COMMUNITY FOUNDATION LIMITED

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2021

1 Accounting policies

Charity information

Coventry Rugby Community Foundation Limited is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated

in England and Wales. The registered office is The Butts Arena, Butts, Coventry, CV1 3GE.

1.1 Accounting convention

The accounts have been prepared in accordance 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). The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2 Going concern

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

1.3 Charitable funds

8

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives unless the funds have been designated for other purposes.

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the accounts.

Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the charity.

1.4 Incoming resources

Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation , unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected . If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business, net of discounts, VAT and other sales related taxes.

COVENTRY RUGBY COMMUNITY FOUNDATION LIMITED

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2021 (CONTINUED)

1.5 Resources expended

Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates.

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.

Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include the independent examiner's fees and costs linked to the strategic management of the charity.

1.6 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the

9

future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements

In the application of the charity's accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements , estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
