Portishead Youth Centre Limited Company limited by guarantee Annual report of the directors and trustees .¢ontinued Res¢rves The surpliis for the year has amounted to £13,986 on unrestricled funds and a deficit of £16,503 on restricted funds as slated on page 13 of the accounts. The unreslricled surplus lolalling £13,986 was helped by a successful insurance claim of £12,127 (for business interruption due to Covid in 2020), over £12,500 of Governinent furlough support and £16,097 Covid support froin North Soinersel. The restricted deficit of £16,503 relates to grants received in 2020 in respect of 2021 funding. The Trustees consider the following provisions necessary in order to show a true posilion of the Youth Centre's ongoing working capital. Using the Reserves Policy agreed in 2021 the alloGation of the reserves to be included in the annual accounts for 2020 are as follows.. Cover for salaries and running eosts for six months for business continuity in the evenl of a catastrophic loss of income £90,000. Cover for the non-insurable cost of using alternative accommodation should Ihe centre building be out of action £ l 0,000. A cumiilative sum to cover any refurbishment required al the end of the lease £30,000. This makes a total of £130,000 in the designated fijnd as staled in note I l. page 14. There 15 also a .8um of £51,728 which is a portion of grants which are evenly spent uniil the nexi instalmenl 15 due or a new application can be made as slated in note 9, pagc 12. Despite the incredible suppoii froin our grant funders and the hope of a full year of trading in 2022, we expect that we will need lo rely upon some of our reserves to continue to operate fully as costs rise. Energy and cleaning costs have increased, our Inaintenance budget ha5 risen and we have in¢r¢ased our slaffing c051s in 2022. The latter is partly down to adding new roles as we increase our provision but also to enable us to becoine a Living Wage Einployer, soinething we are very proud lo have achieved. We will aim to minimise the use of our reserves as much as possible but it does d¢mon.qtrale the importance of having a sound financial footing.
