CLIFTON LEARNING PARTNERSHIP A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
Achievements and performance
The charity has continued to provide services to the children and families within Eastwood. Our belief is that by addressing the issues of vulnerability, exploitation, unemployment, poverty and inequality can build and sustain a stronger community. This has included;
Outside Spaces
-
Our outside spaces have improved substantially.
-
Our outdoor gym equipment has been well used by the community to support both physical and mental well-being.
-
The garden has been tackled by amazing volunteers, again supporting mental and physical well-being and also provided food for the Social Supermarket. This work has been supported by volunteers from Rotherham Minster.
-
The production of honey was increased by the addition of 2 new hives. We sell the honey to provide additional money to make additional purchases for the Social Supermarket. The bees are well looked after by trained volunteers. We are grateful to local Councillors for paying for additional hives and equipment.
Advice and Support
- A grant from The National Lottery has allowed us to expand our advice and support. We are seeing increasing numbers of people, as the cost of living crisis squeezes families hard. We have continued to support people with EUSS and related issues. We have been delighted to welcome back some old friends and colleagues into the building after the pandemic to enhance the advice and support that we can offer. We have also welcomed new friends and colleagues. Local people can now get more specialist support from CARD about immigration and benefits, debt advice and money management from Rotherfed, health advice from Health Visitors, housing advice from Key Choices Council staff, and getting into work support from Big Ambitions, amongst others.
Eastwood Pantry
- Our Social Supermarket has gone from strength to strength and has rapidly become well established in the community. We started by supporting 10 people and gradually increased. We now support 35 people, with 4 people volunteering on a regular basis. We have increased our delivery from Fare Share to twice a week and we supplement this with additional products. We are grateful for funding from RMBC, Skipton Building Society, Neighbourly and Lidl to enable this work to continue.
Community opportunities
- The National Lottery funding has enabled us to consistently provide English conversation groups twice a week. These sessions are appreciated because they are low-key, fun and people are free to bring their babies. In addition to learning English it gives people a chance to meet new people in similar circumstances, develop friendships and support each other. We have also provided cooking and craft sessions for local women.
Supporting young people
- We are pleased to say that support to young people has been strengthened and expanded through the later part of 2022 and into 2023. We were delighted to appoint a Lead Youth Worker who has worked hard to improve and increase the offer to young people. In our 2 youth clubs we see about 40 youngsters each week, a football session was asked for and we have been able to make this happen as well. Rotherham United Community Sports Trust also deliver sessions for the older age range from Zone 2, with the support of our Lead Youth Worker. Activities that young people have had the opportunity to explore have included trips to do canoeing, climbing and abseiling. Also in house activities in art and music.
Financial review
During 2022/23, We were able to sustain our level of income. We maintained the level of smaller grants and have continued to benefit from two larger grants from UKCRF and the National Lottery.
These two major grants have allowed us to continue to develop the advice and support work and community hub work, but further substantial grants from Voluntary Action Rotherham and RMBC have allowed us to extend provision in youth work and the social supermarket respectively.

CLIFTON LEARNING PARTNERSHIP A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
It is the policy of the Charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to 4 months of the Charity's expenditure. The Trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the Charity’s current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. This level of reserves has been maintained throughout the year.
The principle source of funding is through grant applications, a donation from Clifton EMAG Limited and a small trading income however the charity continues to welcome donations from both organisations and individuals.
The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Charity is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.
Structure, governance and management
The Charity is a company limited by guarantee.
The Trustees, who are also the directors for the purpose of company law, and who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were:
B Gow J Hirst (Resigned 8 June 2023) J Remington E Howlett (Resigned 1 May 2023)
New Trustees are appointed based upon skills required. They are committed to supporting our children and their families in engaging and participating in learning.
All of the Trustees are members of the company and guarantee to contribute £1 in the event of a winding up.
The Charity licences its copyrighted electronic mapping attainment grid products to an independent company and receives all the profits from the independent company for sales developments and training.
The Trustees meet regularly throughout the year, all contributing to the work of the Charity.

CLIFTON LEARNING PARTNERSHIP A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
1 Accounting policies
Charity information
Clifton Learning Partnership is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Zone 1, Erskine Road, Eastwood, Rotherham, S65 1RF.
1.1 Accounting convention
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with 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 2019). 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
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
Designated funds comprise funds which have been set aside at the discretion of the Trustees for specific purposes. The purposes and uses of the designated funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.
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 financial statements.
1.4 Income
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.
1.5 Expenditure
The accounts are prepared on the accruals basis.

(Continued)
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.
1.7 Financial instruments
The Charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the Charity's balance sheet when the Charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
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 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.
1.8 Employee benefits
- The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.
Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the Charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
1.9 Retirement benefits
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.
