TRUSTEES' ANNUAL REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31/03/2024
The Trustees present their report and the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31/03/2024. The trustees have adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) "Accounting and Reporting by Charities" (FRS102) in preparing the annual report and financial statements of the charity.
Structure, Governance and Management
Governing document
All Saints Hatcham Community Centre is a registered charitable company. It was constituted as a company limited by guarantee on the 27th of April 2010 and is, therefore, governed by a Memorandum and Articles of Association. The current version of the Articles of Association is dated the 3rd of April 2019.
The organisation was also registered with the United Kingdom Charity Commission on the 2nd of September 2011.
Trustee induction and training
All Saints Hatcham Community Centre is managed by a voluntary Board of Trustees. The Trustees act as the Trustees for the purposes of charity law and are also directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law. The Trustees are also the only members of the company.
The Trustees are selected according to the following procedure:
-Representatives of the local community and users of All Saints Community Centre nominate a Trustee;
-
-The New Cross Gate Trust, a local charitable trust, is represented by its Secretary or their representative;
-
-The Archdeacon of Lewisham and Greenwich may serve or appoint a representative;
-
-All Saints Church Hatcham Park is represented by the incumbent or Priest in charge; and
-
-The Parochial Church Council of All Saints Church Hatcham Park nominates the last three Trustees.
Management
The Trustees delegate their day-to-day management responsibilities to a Centre Manager who is supported by an Assistant Manager. The three officers – the Chair, the Company Secretary, and the Treasurer – are the main points of contact for the centre management. The remaining trustees are kept in the loop via email and all the trustees meet together in person at least four times per year.
Activities
The Centre's principal activities are grouped in a number of categories. Social and recreational opportunities are mainly created through supporting various local community groups that organise and run relevant activities for different age groups. A few activities are organised directly by the Trustees and management.
Health and Exercise activities are supported through specific user groups that provide free or low-cost sessions for local residents.
Activities catering for children and youth are supported through Marvel Pre-school Nursery (provision of childcare for working parents), the Football Academy, and the local Scout group.
Jointly with All Saints Church 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.
The NHS uses the Centre for blood donation services and the local authority uses one of the halls as a polling station and for other activities which it supports.
Finally, the Centre supports local residents through hosting various private functions, such as weddings, birthdays, christenings, children's parties and others similar occasions that are vital part of local residents’ lives.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT
TO THE TRUSTEES OF ALL SAINTS HATCHAM COMMUNITY CENTRE
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31/03/2024
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31/03/2024, which are set out on pages 4 to 10
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').
I report on my examination of the charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act. In carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
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: 1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act, or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records, or 3. 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 encountered no other matters related to the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report to enable a proper understanding of the accounts.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31/03/2024
1. Accounting policies
The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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 (FRS102) issued on 16 July 2014 (as updated through Bulletin 1 published on 2 February 2016), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS102), the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Practice as it applies from 1 January 2015.
The charity has applied Update Bulletin 1, as published on 2 February 2016, and does not include a cash flow statement because it is applying FRS 102 Section 1A.
The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical convention (modified to include certain items at fair value). The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest pound.
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years unless otherwise stated.
Pension costs
The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.
Ecclesiastical Insurance Recharge
The charity normally pays the building insurance costs via monthly direct debit. This is then recharged to All Saints Church at the rate of 55%. Due to change in personnel, the recharge has not been invoices to the church for the years ended 31.03.2022, 31.03.2023, and 31.03.2024.
£11,309 is now owed to the charity by All Saints Church, and the accounts have been adjusted accordingly.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT
TO THE TRUSTEES OF ALL SAINTS HATCHAM COMMUNITY CENTRE
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31/03/2024
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31/03/2024, which are set out on pages 4 to 10
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').
I report on my examination of the charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act. In carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
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: 1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act, or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records, or 3. 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 encountered no other matters related to the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report to enable a proper understanding of the accounts.
