| Summary of the purposes of the charity as set out in its governing document |
Para 1.17 | All Saints Hatcham Community Centre is a charitable company whose objects are (i) to advance the well-being of the communities of the London Boroughs of Lewisham and Southwark by the provision of facilities, programmes and resources to meet the social, educational, recreational and leisure needs of those communities, and (ii) such other charitable purposes as the Trustees shall from time to time decide. The Centre works in partnership with local community groups, other charities and voluntary agencies in the area to advance the following objectives: to provide an accessible and affordable venue and focal point for the local community - a place for people to meet and socialise, and a space for local groups and residents to run their activities and events; to provide a range of low- or no cost social, cultural, educational, recreational and vocational activities that are accessible for local people; to act as a local resource that promotes and encourages learning, development and stronger sense of community; to act as information exchange point for all activities and services available locally, and to provide opportunities for more interaction and inclusion among various users of the Centre; & to maintain strategic relevance with local authorities, other agencies in the area and funding bodies. |
| Summary of the main activities in relation to those purposes for the public benefit, in particular, the activities, projects or services identified in the accounts. |
Para 1.17 and 1.19 |
The Centre's principal activities are grouped in a number of categories. Social and recreational opportunities are created through supporting various local community groups that organise and run relevant activities for elder local residents, aged 50 or over, through Just Older Youth (social and exercise), Southwark Irish Pensioners, Deptford Pensioners' Society, All Saints Line Dancing and, via its Outreach activities that support vulnerable members of the community, mostly elderly local residents, through providing low-cost hot meals, organising various social events (e.g. special occasion dinners and parties) and various outing trips (e.g. a day trip to the seaside). Health and Exercise activities are supported through specific user groups that provide free or low-cost sessions for local residents, including Zumba, Ballet, Dance classes, Gentle exercise for elderly, Thai- Chi classes, Taekwondo, Kundalini Yoga, Table Tennis, Fencing and Air Weapon Clubs. The Centre is about to launch a Junior Football Academy which will target the age group from 7yrs to 11yrs. The Academy will deliver 80 football sessions (120 hours) of 1.5 hours, twice per week for the above ages living in and around New Cross Gate. This is the age when they might otherwise start getting involved in low level anti-social behaviour and crime. The academy will support these children. Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). This meeting is designed to help former alcoholics support one another throughout their recovery journey while maintaining their sobriety. Activities catering for children and youth are supported through Marvel Pre-school Nursery, Treasured Kids After-school Club (provision of low-cost childcare for working parents); All Saints Scouts (Cubs, Beavers and Explorers), Holiday camps for children, and Taekwondo club for children and youth. A large group of Centre users is represented by community worship groups and patrimonial societies meeting on Sundays. The Centre is widely used by training and education providers, particularly those delivering vocational training and other education opportunities, after-school homework clubs for children and other |
|
|---|---|---|---|
| similar activities. A special place in education is designated for encouraging socially responsible dog ownership in the community and is provided via training delivered by the Dog Owners Club. Further, the Centre hosts regular NHS Blood Transplant sessions in addition to acting as a Polling Station for government/electoral bodies. All Saints Church Hatcham Park is also a major user of the Centre and hosts regular annual events, including a Summer Fair and Christmas Bazaar, the Mayor’s Carol service and other similar occasions. Finally, the Centre supports local residents through hosting affordable private functions, such as weddings, birthdays, christenings, children's parties and others similar occasions that are vital part of local residents’lives. |

|---|---|---|
| Summary of the main achievements of the charity, identifying the difference the charity’s work has made to the circumstances of its beneficiaries and any wider benefits to society as a whole. |
Para 1.20 | The Centre aims to advance the well-being of the communities of the London Boroughs of Lewisham and Southwark by the provision of facilities, programmes and resources to meet the social, educational, recreational and leisure needs of those communities. The Centre has hosted dance classes including Zumba, Hula Fit, Yoga, Ballet and Line Dancing, and Taekwondo, Historic Fencing and Air Weapon Clubs, which are greatly enjoyed by their participants and are valued times of recreation which were missed during the pandemic. Alcoholics Anonymous’ work to rehabilitate Alcoholic victims is in full swing. Activities aimed at older residents, such as Gentle Exercise or Thai Chi, Irving Table Tennis Club, Superman Fellowship have resumed, restoring to their participants important points of social contact. Childcare (via Marvel Pre-school Nursery and Treasured Kids After-school Club) and community worships on Sundays encourage social interaction between individuals and families of all ages.

| Achievements against objectives set |
Para 1.41 | Objectives given to Current Management Team a. To increase cash deposits through more lettings and seeking external funding for the replacement of the boilers. b. To improve the accounting system for careful control of lettings, receipts and payments. c. Amending contracts for increased deposits for hall lettings, so that extra costs for breaking contracts can be covered. d. Instigating new procedures for ending late parties, so that our neighbours are not disturbed by |
|
|---|---|---|---|
| noise. e. To recruit and train new people, who can then provide caretaking services. f. To maintain and improve the Centre’s building and grounds, especially relating to plumbing and drainage, internal decoration, heating system, electrics and grounds. g. To improve advertising through new notice board, leaflets and web-site. h. To have regular staff meetings. The Trustees are generally satisfied with the work of the current management team to achieve these targets. |
||
|---|---|---|
| Performance of fundraising activities against objectives set |
Para 1.41 | The Centre is able in normal times to meet its expenses from income earned from letting out its premises to users. The football project described earlier has needed and has obtained external funding. It is hoped to obtain funding to assist with the cost of boiler repairs also. |
| Investment performance against objectives |
Para 1.41 | The Centre operates a current and a deposit account and does not currently invest any of its funds. |
| Other | The new management has reclaimed a good deal of space within the Centre that was previously used for storage and there is now a functioning shower and office once more. |
Financial Review
| Review of the charity’s financial position at the end of the period |
Para 1.21 | The Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Centre will have adequate resources to remain in operation until at least 12 months after the approval of these Financial Statements. Reserves have been bolstered after the substantial loss sustained during the pandemic and income from the letting of the Centre’s facilities in returning to normal levels. |
|---|---|---|
| Statement explaining the policy for holding reserves stating why they are held |
Para 1.22 | The Charity maintains a reserve fund as major infrastructure costs such as the renewal or replacement of its heating system. This is in fact required now and professional fees are already building up. The continued heating of the building, particularly in the colder months, is essential for most activities. The cost of the energy this year has also been a concern. |
| Amount of reserves held | Para 1.22 | £ 77,000 was held in the reserves at the end of the reporting period |
| Reasons for holding zero reserves |
Para 1.22 | N/A |
| Details of fund materially in deficit |
Para 1.24 | N/A |
| Explanation of any uncertainties about the charity continuing as a going concern NOTE: FR ANGUS / FRANKLIN further comment, e.g. about the boiler? |
Para 1.23 | The rise in the cost of living coupled with inflation and adverse financial impact of the pandemic upon local people may discourage some people from booking the Centre’s facilities. The Centre’s finances would not withstand another hit of the magnitude of the one delivered by the pandemic. It remains to be seen how severely all these things will bite in the year ahead, and how local people will react. |
Additional information (optional) You may choose to include further statements where relevant about:
The charity’s principal sources of funds (including any fundraising) |
Para 1.47 |
The Centre raises funds principally from hire charges for use of the Centre’s premises. The bulk of the expenditure is to pay for the services required to maintain and run the Centre. Grants were obtained to mitigate the impact of pandemic-related costs, but in normal times the Centre earns its income from lettings. Fundraising has been undertaken to support the local football project for children. |
|---|---|---|
| Investment policy and objectives including any social investment policy adopted |
Para 1.46 | N/A |
| A description of the principal risks facing the charity |
Para 1.46 | a. There are some exceptional repair costs impending, but given the increasing activities of the Centre and the work of the new manager, we are hopeful for the Centre’s ongoing success. b. An unexpected crisis like a Pandemic, where the Centre had to be closed, would present huge problems. c. Equally a sudden long term illness of the Manager would present great difficulties. We are seeking to strengthen the number of trustees to help with situations like that. |

DIRECTORS' AND TRUSTEES' REPORT (Continued)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31/03/2023
The Centre's principal activities are grouped in a number of categories.

Activities catering for children and youth are supported through Marvel Pre-school Nursery (provision of childcare for working parents) and a local Scout group.
Jointly with All Saints Church, the Community Centre also organises regular summer holiday trips to the Isle of Man for local children on low income or from disadvantaged backgrounds.
Several Christian fellowships use a room in the Centre for worship.
The Community Centre is also widely used by training and education groups, particularly those providing vocational training and other educational opportunities, homework clubs for children and other similar activities.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT
TO THE TRUSTEES OF ALL SAINTS HATCHAM COMMUNITY CENTRE
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31/03/2023
I report on the accounts which are set out on pages 4 to 11
Respective responsibilities of the Trustees and Independent Examiner
The trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
Examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; follow the procedures laid down in the general directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act); and state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a "true and fair view" and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
the accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the applicable 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.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
