## **Achievements and performance** 

Achievements 

Since the formation of Mid Dorset Mencap Group in 2009 we are proud of what has been achieved: 

• We started with a group of people who were passionate to support the most vulnerable in society. 

• The group was unknown in the area’s we support; we are now a well-established local charity that has been well supported by local people. 

• We are proud to be able to be support those in need by being proactive in making grants etc. 

• To go from having the meetings in pubs etc to having our own charity shop in High East Street, to the present location in Trinity Street has been achieved through a small group of people who gave their time and effort to make Mid Dorset Mencap Group to be proud of. 

• The group was recognised and affiliated to National Mencap within six months of being formed. 

• The group was officially made had registered charity status granted within the first eight months of being formed. 

## Impact 

When the group was formed in 2009 the main aim was to provide financial help to those most in need, this was achieved through fund raising events, and after a short time it was evident that there was a need to explore other ways of providing assistance. In 2014 the trustees started to investigate if it was feasible to open a charity shop, giving those we support the opportunity to learn basic retail skills. A small shop was found in High East Street, Dorchester, and this was opened in September 2014. A small group of people we support used to attend on three days a week and, in addition, a group from a care provider used to attend on one day a week and would open the shop under the supervision of their carers. 

The comments from those who attended are: 

1. A Client who works at the shop, said: "I and other volunteers in the shop work so hard to keep it nice and bring money to support others. 

"I have made good friends since beginning there and my confidence has grown. 

"I used to not leave the house and because of Mencap shop I now feel part of a team and valued." 

2. "I like coming to the shop it makes me happy, I like to talk to the people who come in. Selina says I work hard and am always smiling"

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT** 

3. "I like coming to the shop and working serving customers, I am getting really good at using the till and am in charge in the shop area on a Tuesday. I like talking to people who come in, some come in a lot and sometimes I see them in town and they say hello and talk to me" 

4. A gentleman in his late twenties who is autistic. He has recently moved out of a residential home into a shared supported living flat and is finding the change in lifestyle a challenge. He already does some voluntary work once a week at a local Church Coffee Morning and in a Charity Shop (alternate weeks), he also attends a drama group each Monday morning and is part of a small Day Centre group on a Wednesday. When he lived in the residential home he regularly assisted in the offices (he saw himself as my assistant in the office and we worked very well together) and he also assisted in the commercial kitchen there, he seems to be missing this sort of work as he likes to be around other people and feel helpful and needed. He does not like being in his flat for long periods of time as he needs to be stimulated and involved in things, lack of stimulation and useful things to do has been causing him to find it hard to cope and he is displaying increasing periods of challenging behavior. 

He has very little verbal communication He has improved 100% with his communication skills since attending the shop facility. He has the title of Deputy Shop Manager he is a very willing part of the team and gets a great deal of satisfaction from attending the shop. 

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic the High East Street had to close in November 2020. 

## **Financial review**

## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES** 

The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with the United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and applicable law and regulations. 

The law applicable to charities requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

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

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

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the applicable Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations, and the provisions of the constitution. The trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view' which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023**_ 

## **MID DORSET MENCAP** 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **Statement of compliance** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the second edition of the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011. 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the relevant version of the 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) and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared to give a ‘true and fair’ view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a ‘true and fair view’. This departure has involved following the relevant version of the 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) rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn. 

## **Basis of preparation** 

Mid Dorset Mencap meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts. 

## **Exemption from preparing a cash flow statement** 

The charity have not included a cash flow statement in these financial statements under the exemption provided in Bulletin 1 published on 2 February 2016. 

## **Going concern** 

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

## **Income and endowments** 

Voluntary income including donations, gifts, legacies and grants that provide core funding or are of a general nature is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability. 

## _**Donations and legacies**_ 

Donations and legacies are recognised on a receivable basis when receipt is probable and the amount can be reliably measured. 

## _**Grants receivable**_ 

Grants are recognised when the charity has an entitlement to the funds and any conditions linked to the grants have been met. Where performance conditions are attached to the grant and are yet to be met, the income is recognised as a liability and included on the balance sheet as deferred income to be released.

## **MID DORSET MENCAP** 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023**_ 

## _**Gifts in kind**_ 

The charity receives donated goods for resale. It would be impractical to recognise the fair value of these donated goods on receipt. In accordance with paragraph 6.29 of the Charities SORP (FRS102), the value to the charity of the donated goods is therefore recognised as income when sold. 

## _**Donated services and facilities**_ 

The contribution of unpaid general volunteers is not included as income of the charity in accordance with paragraph 6.18 of the Charities SORP (FRS 102). 

## _**Investment income**_ 

Dividends are recognised once the dividend has been declared and notification has been received of the dividend due. 

Interest received on bank deposits is recognised when it is credited to the bank account. 

## _**Charitable activities**_ 

Revenue received from the operation of the charity shop and cafe comprises the fair value of the consideration received or receivable for the sale of goods and services. This revenue is shown net of value added tax, returns, rebates and discounts. 

The charity recognises revenue when the amount of revenue can be reliably measured, and it is probable that future economic benefits will flow to the charity. 

## **Expenditure** 

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 that 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. 

## _**Charitable activities**_ 

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. 

## _**Grant provisions**_ 

Provisions for grants are made when the intention to make a grant has been communicated to the recipient but there is uncertainty about either the timing of the grant or the amount of grant payable. 

## **Governance costs** 

These include the costs attributable to the charity’s compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements, including audit, strategic management and trustees’s meetings and reimbursed expenses. 

## **Government grants** 

Government grants are recognised based on the performance model, as disclosed above. 

During the year, the charity received restricted grant funding totalling £16,859 from The National Lottery Community Fund.

Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.
