TRUSTEES REPORT
The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 August 2023. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies to with the Charities Act 2011 and with the 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 2019).
Objectives and Activities
We aim to support and enhance the social fabric of the school for children, parents and teachers, helping to provide a stimulating, enjoyable environment for the children. We encourage parental involvement, organise social occasions for children and parents, carry out fundraising ventures to help local charities and to support activities for the children in addition to those the school offers.
Achievements and Performance
In the year to 31 August 2023, Friends of Kew Green Preparatory School (“the Friends”) raised £34,631 (2022 - £41,650) and made charitable donations of £11,843 (2022- £13,488) - £2,000 to Horse Rangers and £9,843 to Noah’s Pink Balloon.
Funds as of 31 August 2023 were £12,174 (2022 - £9,264).
Following the post-pandemic transition back to activity in 2021-22, which included four major social events, 2022-23 was much more a “business as usual” year, with the charity conducting a major social event each term, as well as numerous sales throughout the school year. Income and costs were therefore lower than previously but in line with expectations.
Reporting
It is noted that these financial statements for the year ended 31 August 2023 have been completed and filed past the reporting deadline.
Structure and Governance
There were changes in the trustee committee during the year ended 31 August 2023 and further changes were made after the year ended 31 August 2023, as detailed in the table below.
Governance procedures remain under periodic review and further improvements were implemented, including bringing all payments for events under the control of the trustees.
