HAPPY NURSERY DAYS (TULSE HILL) LIMITED TRUSTEES’ REPORT FOR YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

The Trustees present their report and the audited financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2023. The Trustees have adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” (FRS 102) published in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011 and the Companies Act 2006 in preparing the annual report and financial statements of the charity.

Our Aims and Objectives

Purposes and Aims

The charity’s purposes as set out in the objects contained in the company’s memorandum of association are:

For the public benefit to advance the development and education of children in such ways as the Directors think fit, including:

Public Benefit

We have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aims and objectives and in planning our future activities. The charity provides parents in and around the community with much needed childcare to enable them to go to work or for further studies. Anyone is allowed to use our services subject to adherence to our policies. We are also registered to allocate “free 15 to 30 hours per week” for children between the ages of 2-4, which is allocated on a first come first served basis, subject to availability . We are pursuing grants to assist with the training of individuals to enable them to find work, which will be open to anyone from the public.

Financial Review

The nursery had a deficit of £5,910 for 2022/23 (2021/22: surplus of £41,488). Occupancy rates for the nursery have remained stable, however, it should be noted there was no furlough income in the year ended 31[st] March 2023. In addition, during the course of the year, the Nursery was rated ‘inadequate’ following an Ofsted inspection which was prompted by an incident in October 2022. This impacted the ability to take funded spaces with restriction to only private funded spaces. This had an overall impact on total income and consequently the Deficit. The Ofsted rating has however been reinstated to ‘Good’ following a re-inspection in April 2023.

The following are the principal risks and uncertainties:

Staff salary costs was £283,515, this decreased by £4,484 (2021/22: £287,999), which is reflective of some of the challenges with recruitment.

Achievements and Performance

In 2022/23, investment in the Nursery has enabled essential health & Safety work to be completed and standards maintained.

The Nursery was recognised as a ‘Natural Thinkers Setting’. This links to the Ofsted requirement to provide children with range of outdoor activities such as planting for various seasons and the mud kitchen with endless play and interaction.

The Nursery also successfully started a ‘Tooth Brushing Program’ sponsored by the LEAP Project. This is in accordance with promoting oral health in the early years foundation stage.

We agreed in principle an extension to the current lease of the premises at peppercorn rent.

HAPPY NURSERY DAYS (TULSE HILL) LIMITED TRUSTEES’ REPORT FOR YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

Principal Funding Sources

The Charity’s main source of funding is from fees from parents or carers for the use of the nursery. It also receives funding from the Nursery Education Fund.

Reserves Policy

The Trustees review the reserves of the Charity in light of the main risks to the organisation. The review encompasses the nature of the income and expenditure stream. The Trustees acknowledged that due to the current economic climate it could be faced with default on fee payments resulting in bad debt write-offs, negatively affecting the reserves. The reserves in 2023 were £204.9k (2022: £210.9k). There was a reduction in 2023 reserve resulting from provision against bad debt. It is the Trustees’ policy to generally maintain reserves at a low level and to apply nursery income to funding its activities. In light of the income generated, the Trustees consider the balance of the unrestricted funds to be satisfactory in meeting the nursery’s obligations should potential liabilities arise.

Plans for Future Periods

Management have put in place a robust improvement plan with a target to increase the occupancy rate to 85% in the future.

New Management Committee members are invited and encouraged to attend induction sessions to familiarise themselves with the charity and the context within which it operates.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

TO THE MEMBERS OF

HAPPY NURSERY DAYS (TULSE HILL) LIMITED

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Happy Nursery Days (Tulse Hill) Limited (the ‘charitable company’) for the year ended 31 March 2023 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities (incorporating the Income and Expenditure Account), the Balance Sheet and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies in note 1. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 (The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland) and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.

In our opinion, the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the Trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other Information

The other information comprises the information included in the Trustees’ Report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The Trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the other information. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

In connection with our audit of the financial statements our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information; we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF

HAPPY NURSERY DAYS (TULSE HILL) LIMITED

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of Trustees

As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities set out on page 8, the Trustees are responsible for the preparation of financial statements which give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the Trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed as auditor under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with regulations made under section 154 of that Act.

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or taken together, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

Extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud

We identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and then design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, including obtaining audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

In identifying and addressing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and noncompliance with laws and regulations, our procedures included the following:

10

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF

HAPPY NURSERY DAYS (TULSE HILL) LIMITED

Extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud (continued)

Due to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with auditing standards. For example, as with any audit, there remained a higher risk of non-detection of irregularities, as these may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls. We are not responsible for preventing fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations and cannot be expected to detect all fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charitable company’s members, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company’s members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and the charitable company’s members as a body for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions, we have formed.

HAPPY NURSERY DAYS (TULSE HILL) LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

a) Legal status

Happy Nursery Days (Tulse Hill) Limited is a charitable company incorporated in England under the Companies Act 2006. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the charity. The address of the registered office is Valens House 132A Upper Tulse Hill, London, SW2 2RX.

b) Basis of accounting

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their financial statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted Practice.

The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention. The financial statements are prepared in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £.

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 presented unless otherwise stated.

The Trustees have taken advantage of the exemption from including a Statement of Cash Flows as per paragraph 1.12 of FRS 102 in the financial statements as the consolidated financial statements of Ekaya Housing Association Limited, 145 Stockwell Rd, London SW9 9TN (Registered Society Number 25683R) are publicly available.

c) Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported for assets and liabilities as at the balance sheet date and the amounts reported for revenues and expenses during the year. However, the nature of estimation means that actual outcomes could differ from those estimates. The following judgements (apart from those involving estimates) have had the most significant effect on amounts recognised in the financial statements.

Tangible fixed assets. Tangible fixed assets are depreciated over their useful lives taking into account residual values, where appropriate. The actual lives of the assets and residual values are assessed annually and may vary depending on a number of factors. In re-assessing asset lives, factors such as technological innovation, product life cycles and maintenance programmes are taken into account. Residual value assessments consider issues such as future market conditions, the remaining life of the asset and projected disposal values.

d) Turnover

Turnover comprises the invoiced value of goods and services supplied by the charity.

e) Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity.

Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure imposed by the donor.

f) Incoming resources

All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when the charity is entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy

g) Resources expended

Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred.
