## **ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDING MARCH 2021** 


## 1. **STRUCTURE, OBJECTIVES AND MANAGEMENT** 

From its beginning, the Parish Centre was run by St Mary’s Parish Centre [Ambleside] Trust, a registered charity [No 1093947]. The Parish Centre, located at Vicarage Road, Ambleside LA22 9DH, is held on a 28 year lease from 1 January 2002 from the Carlisle Diocesan Board of Finance Limited as set out in a Declaration of Trust dated 10 October 2001, and a Lease and Trust Deed dated 29 January 2002 which set up the original Committee of Management. These trusts were modified by further deeds of 2 April 2008 and 8 August 2008, which established the Sharing Agreement that incorporated the interests of Ambleside Methodist Church and established that the Management Committee should include eight members, five elected and up to three co-opted, who could be drawn from the membership of the two named Churches. A further trust, the Ambleside with Brathay Trust, was created on 25 October 2007 controlling the property of Ambleside Parish Centre, and whose trustees are drawn equally from the two Churches. Ambleside Parish Centre was incorporated under the Companies Act 2006, limited by guarantee [No 7640743], and in this connection has Articles of Association which closely mirror the governing deeds listed above. The company is a registered charity No 1145971. The Articles established that the premises are available for the benefit of the wider community and not just for the two named Churches; the previous Management Committee is replaced by a Board of Directors. 

On 1 April 2012 St Mary’s Parish Centre [Ambleside] Trust gifted the whole of its assets and liabilities to the charitable company Ambleside Parish Centre and the charitable company carried on the activities of the former charitable trust as from that date. 

On 1 April 2015 the Parish of St Mary’s Church with Holy Trinity Brathay was dissolved and became the Parish of St Mary’s Church Ambleside. This change is now reflected in our formal Constitution. 

The members of the Board of Directors are as follows: 

- Five members from St Mary’s Church to include the Vicar and a churchwarden [appointed at the Church’s Annual General Meeting] 

- Five members from Ambleside Methodist Church, including the Superintendent Minister [appointed by the Ambleside Methodist Church Council] 

- The Head Teacher of Ambleside Primary School or his/her nominee 

- Alternately, the Treasurer of St Mary’s Church or the Treasurer of Ambleside Methodist Church or their nominee

## **ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDING MARCH 2021** 

- Up to five members elected from organisations using the Parish Centre 

- Up to three co-opted members 

## 2. **RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE TRUSTEES** 

The trustees (who are also the directors of Ambleside Parish Centre for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. 

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the trustees have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and the income and expenditure of the charitable company for that period. 

In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

- make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charitable company’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

## 4. **GOVERNANCE** 

The Management/Directors group meetings continued throughout the lockdown periods via Zoom, and the AGM was held on Zoom in November 2020. Correspondence between the Centre Manager(s) and relevant Directors was maintained during this time through email and telephone. Due to the restrictions in place as a result of the COVID-19 Pandemic, the governance groups did not meet in person throughout this financial year. As Zoom meetings were not a viable option until the latter part of the year; the governance groups did not formally meet between April and December 2020. The following governance groups met on Zoom for the last quarter of the year January – March 2021: 

- Facilities group – oversees the maintenance of the building and its fabric. The group is made up of a trustee, two co-opted members with relevant expertise and the Centre Manager. 

- Finance group – oversees the financial position and projections of the Centre. This group is made up of the Treasurer, Finance Administrator, the Director/Fundraiser and the Centre Manager. 

- Youth Club [Our Place Youth Project] governance group – which provides governance for the Centre’s youth work. “Youth engagement services” (YES) who have been contracted to provide the youth services since September 2015 continue to work with both the junior and senior youth groups that make up “Our Place”. This group consists of two trustees, the Finance Administrator, the Centre Manager and two representatives from YES. 

## 5. **PROGRESS IN ACHIEVING TARGETS SET FOR 2020 - 21** 

As a result of the COVID-19 Pandemic, 2020 – 2021 was a year like no other. Consequently, this impacted on the Centre’s ability to deliver on the targets set for the year. It also shifted the Centre’s focus and presented new and different priorities throughout this period: 

1. _Ensure sufficient income to allow the Centre to remain open and operate in a way that continues to benefit and support the community throughout the coronavirus pandemic._ 

This very much remained the target throughout the year, and the success of this is evident in the amount of grant funding and donations the Centre received during this year. The income generated was in the form of both restricted grants, for specific use relating to community support work or essential running costs, and unrestricted grants and donations.

**AMBLESIDE PARISH CENTRE** (Company Limited by Guarantee) 

## **ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDING MARCH 2021** 

The Centre was largely closed to the public during the various lockdowns and tiered restriction periods, but continued to provide essential services to the community. These included hot meals deliveries, access to Fareshare and Foodbank and Chiropody appointments. It was as a result of the funds raised during this period that the Centre, not only stayed operating and covering its core costs, but was able to deliver the essential services it did. The carry over of funds acquired during this period that could not be spent as a result of the Pandemic, have been reassigned to 2021-22 as part of an extensive and rigorous budgeting process. The detail of this will be included in our Annual Report for 2021-22. 

2. _Deliver as much practical support, with regards to food, health and well-being as practicable to the community through the coronavirus pandemic e.g. expand food bank, lunch schemes, deliver welfare telephone calls, expand the befriending/home visiting service etc._ 

From the start of the Pandemic, the Centre took an active and leading role in setting up, delivering and supporting others to provide an array of practical support within the community. 

**The Centre’s initial response to the Pandemic** was to put in place a means of becoming a hub for requests for help (over 70 were received in the first two weeks). Access to Food Bank and Fareshare was expanded. A volunteer programme was developed for people who came forward through direct contact or via local art retailer Cherrydidi, who collected details of community volunteers to walk dogs, do shopping, phone buddies etc. Volunteers were partnered with specific shops and tasks. For example a volunteer for the chemist, the butchers, the grocers; rather than partnering people with people – this approach reduced and limited the number of people moving around the area. Over 50 people in the Ambleside area were receiving weekly welfare/buddy calls in the first lockdown. 

**The Hot Meals Delivery Service** that was delivered from the Centre in partnership with Windermere School, began in April 2020 and ran throughout the school term times in 2020-21. Volunteers from across the community came forward to offer to serve, pack and deliver the meals to those shielding and vulnerable households from across the Parish including Grasmere, Hawkshead, Chapel Stile and Troutbeck Bridge. Recipients received 2 courses, 3 days per week; for many these were a lifeline. In the first week it provided meals to 24 households, second week 36 and into the fourth week it had reached over 50 households with nearly 350 meals going out each week. During the initial emergency 12 week period, supplying

**AMBLESIDE PARISH CENTRE** (Company Limited by Guarantee) 


## **ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDING MARCH 2021** 


hot lunches 7 days per week, 2170 meals were delivered. Funding was acquired to run the service again throughout the winter of 2020 – 21, with the last day of service being April 1[st] 2021. 

**For online support** , the Centre set up a community Facebook Group which became an increasingly popular platform to share important information and updates regarding the Pandemic on a daily basis. Still active today, the group has over 800 members. 

**Chiropody appointments** continued to be available at the Centre through ‘West Lakes Podiatry’ with Chloe Naismith. 

**Access to Food Bank and Fareshare** was retained throughout the year by opening the Centre for short periods throughout the week. The format was relaxed from a pre-packed food box to a ‘community cupboard’ where items could be chosen as required from the stock available. Volunteers were intrinsic in keeping these services running by collecting items from the local area, bringing to the Centre then staying for the drop-in sessions. As well as food, the Centre began to stock other essential items such as personal hygiene and cleaning products. Children’s activity packs were created; they encouraged participation in weekly challenges under various themes, where all materials were available free from the Centre. 

3. _Encourage regular users to return to the Centre, taking into account government and organising body guidelines that are relevant, to provide both revenue and activities for the community._ 

The lockdown periods dominated this financial year, so at no point was this target appropriate. A national lockdown was still in place by the end of the financial year; therefore, the Centre remained closed to the public (except for essential services) up until and beyond 1 April 2021. 

4. _Continue to improve the energy efficiency and reduce the environmental impact of the Centre activities both for the local and global community._ 

With the new and different priorities relating to the COVID-19 Pandemic, this target was not applicable to this period. The Centre’s affiliation with the local charity Ambleside Action for a Future and broader aims regarding sustainability, have however brought this back to the forefront and will therefore feature as a target for 2021-22. 

_5. Finalise the legacy giving programme and promote it with local organisations, solicitors etc._

**AMBLESIDE PARISH CENTRE** (Company Limited by Guarantee) 

## **ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDING MARCH 2021** 

As a result of the Pandemic, this target was not appropriate for this year. 

## 6. **OTHER ACHIEVEMENTS AND DEVELOPMENTS** 

No one could have anticipated the events of 2020, or the impact that the Pandemic would have on the Centre and its community into 2021. However, during this period, the strength and resilience of the community and the Centre can be seen in what was achieved amid such challenging conditions. 

● **The recruitment of a new Centre Manager** in November 2020 saw the appointment of Sophie Bryde to the post. At this stage in the Pandemic, the country had entered a period of tiered restrictions so, although there was no ‘lockdown’ in place, this was still a challenging time 

both to recruit and, subsequently, introduce a new Manager to the Centre. Local to the area and already an active member of the community, Sophie was quickly able to immerse herself within the Centre’s work during the Pandemic whilst beginning to plan and prepare for the next stages of its recovery. 

● **The Towers Project** was awarded funding in 2020 and thus given the go ahead. £18,000 (£13,500 in March 2021 and £4,500 in June 2021) from ACTion with Communities in Cumbria* and £1,500 from All Churches Trust Limited was raised towards the total costs of the works. Paul Grout, the original architect for the building, worked with the Centre Manager on a tender process through which Abseil Commercial were awarded the contract. Damage to the tower roofs had become severe, due to water leaking in through the sky lights. The majority of the work was undertaken in March 2021 and completed in April 2021; this work was essential to preserve the building for future generations. 

_*Referred to as Voluntary Action Cumbria in accounts._ 

## ● **Christmas Family Hampers** 

As part of the DEFRA grant the Centre received for the hot meals delivery service, funding was also allocated to provide Christmas hampers to families in the community. Volunteers gathered at the Centre to decorate cardboard boxes and transform them into festive hampers. The hampers were made up with essential items such as fruit, vegetables, bread, a voucher for the butchers and household products all sourced from local shops. Each hamper also had some

treats added including mince pies and gingerbreads from the local bakery. Ambleside Primary School selected the families who would receive the hampers and they were collected the week before Christmas and were gratefully received. 

## ● **HR Review** 

In January the Centre Manager, Chair and Secretary of the Board carried out a review of all staff contracts and role profiles in line with the Staff Handbook and the Staff Development Policy and Procedure. The results of this review were as follows; 

- updated role profiles for all employees 

- permanent contracts offered to all employees who had been in continuous employment for more than 2 years 

- Board approval of an increase for project related employees to £10.75ph from 1 April 2021, to bring in line with Real Living Wage 

- Board Approval of an increase for core Centre employees of 5% in line with RPI, from 1 April 2021 

## **7. TRUST RUN PROJECTS AND GROUPS** 

Throughout this financial year, Centre staff were furloughed/ part furloughed and project groups were unable to meet or operate in person due to the Pandemic. The Evergreens Coordinator however was able to conduct her work and support her group remotely, whilst the Older Persons Project Coordinator operated on part-furlough which enabled her to provide vital support to the Centre and local community. 

## 1. **Evergreens** 

The Covid pandemic brought challenges for our Evergreen Group who usually met every Wednesday during term time. By applying themselves practically and creatively, Teresa ensured regular links were maintained with everyone to reduce social isolation, pick up on any outstanding needs and provide a sense of connectedness which hopefully fostered well-being through difficult times. 

Weekly phone calls were made to most members and monthly newsletters were produced which contained a mixture of information, inspiration and a few brain teasers. 

Christmas was still celebrated when a VW van all dressed up with tinsel and lights, delivered goodies door to door with a team of volunteers sporting costumes from turkeys to elves, to

Santas and snowmen. The local school children made cards with messages to warm the heart and a local hotel provided carefully crafted Christmas cake for distribution. Everyone expressed how uplifting this had been in what had been a very long year. 

## 2. **All Together Now** 

This report reflects on the impact of the year 2020 – 21 when Gale was largely furloughed and consequently All Together Now could not meet or operate from the Centre. 

During this time however, members of the group retained contact and shared experiences online with thanks to the support of AWAZ and Brockhole. We are grateful to AWAZ and Brockhole who, in providing regular online activities open to all, kept the members of All Together Now connected and supported while Gale was furloughed. 

AWAZ Cumbria is a social enterprise and community development organisation aiming to create strong and vibrant BME communities fully engaged in the decisions which affect their growth and development. AWAZ helped keep the members of All Together Now supported at a time when it was really needed. Half of our group were furloughed living in the staff quarters of closed down businesses, left behind by others who had been able to isolate at home. The other half were key workers in public facing roles often feeling unprotected and vulnerable. When most other activities were cancelled, AWAZ offered a way for people to connect. It also 

enabled group members to connect with other community groups. It was AWAZ who first put us in touch with Brockhole. This is a partnership we aim to maintain moving forwards. 

A combination of Brexit and the Covid Pandemic have changed the makeup of the group. More of the group are people who have chosen to stay long term, there is less need to help people find their feet and more about being somewhere to belong. There are fewer international people in our community right now, this is putting more pressure on those who are here. All of us in hospitality jobs are working harder and longer hours as everywhere is understaffed. It has also left some feeling more isolated as friends and colleagues have left and not been replaced. Overseas travel is still difficult and flights more expensive. Most of the group have not seen their families in the last two years and don’t know when they can. 

The Pandemic gave the group opportunities to find new ways of connecting with each other. Zoom meant members could meet from their own homes; meeting with each other's pets and

house plants but also each other's partners and families. Moving forwards we would like to find ways of bringing our families together in person, perhaps by occasionally meeting at different times or places, especially for celebrations. 

The summer of 2020, with the temporary easing of restrictions, gave the group members the opportunity to embrace the outdoors and share some experiences together. 

Having experienced different ways of enjoying the area through outdoor activities, the group also want to continue to spend time outdoors; to do more kayaking and perhaps try other Lakeland adventure sports. 

## 3. **Our Place Youth Project** 

Due to the restrictions in place because of Covid, Our Place Youth Club was not able to meet at the Centre for the duration of this financial year. Being unable to meet at the Centre, the Youth Engagement Service (YES) however ran 14 ‘detached’ sessions between 21st July and 3rd November 2020 when Youth Workers walked around Ambleside, talking to young people. Initially the Youth Workers began at 5.00pm and stayed out till 7.00pm. As the nights drew in workers changed to 3.30pm- 5.30pm, the time chosen to catch primary and secondary aged young people. On average, they met with 7 young people a week, having conversations with them to offer to support with the challenges they faced as a result of the Pandemic. 

## 4. **Games for Men** 

Under the restrictions, and with group members identified as vulnerable, Chris Shepherd was furloughed and Games for Men did not meet at the Centre for the duration of this period. 

## 5. **Home Visiting Scheme** 

As the volunteers who ran this scheme and those it supported being identified as vulnerable, the scheme was suspended at the beginning of the Pandemic and was not running at the end of this financial year. Volunteers who ran the scheme regularly phoned the small remaining recipients of support and worked with the local church communities to ensure those members of the local community who had become isolated and vulnerable were being contacted regularly.

**AMBLESIDE PARISH CENTRE** (Company Limited by Guarantee) 

## **ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDING MARCH 2021** 

## 6. **Fareshare Community Lunches** 

These lunches were not permitted throughout this period under the government’s Covid restrictions. Fareshare was continued to be collected weekly and made accessible as part of the Food Bank and ‘community cupboard’ services that the Centre provided throughout the Pandemic. 

## 7. **Working with Volunteers** 

With staff working remotely, either on furlough or part furlough, the Centre relied almost entirely on volunteers to deliver the support it provided; particularly during the height of the Pandemic. Many of the Centre’s loyal and committed volunteers found themselves in the clinically vulnerable category and were therefore required to shield. As a result, the Centre welcomed a whole new community of volunteers, many of whom had not previously been involved with, and at times unaware of the Centre and its work. This was a hugely positive outcome of this exceptionally challenging year with the formation of connections with new and different members of the community and it is hoped that this will last well beyond the end of the Pandemic. 

## 8. **MANAGEMENT OF RISK** 

Managing risk during the Pandemic was of upmost importance, for the safety of staff, volunteers and the public. The government’s issuing of guidance was frequent and changeable as the Pandemic developed so it was imperative that the guidance was received, understood and put in place quickly and accurately. 

As a not-for profit organisation, it was also extremely important that the considerable changes and complexity in the way the Centre received income were monitored and recorded accurately, and this is evident in our end of year accounts: 

## 1. **Financial Scrutiny** 

Throughout this period, the Centre applied for and received an unprecedented amount of grants and donations as a result of the Pandemic. At the same time the revenue ordinarily raised through room hire, events and activities suddenly ground to a halt. Our Finance Administrator worked remotely throughout this period, maintaining regular and close contact via phone, email and Zoom with the Centre Manager(s) and Fundraising Trustee to accurately record the grants and donations that the Centre was receiving each quarter. In the 3[rd] and 4[th]

quarters of this period, when the initial response phase to the Pandemic had passed, the Finance Governance Group was able to meet again to ensure the complex and detailed workings from the previous two quarters accurately reflected the Centre’s income and expenditure. The Centre’s Finance Administrator, Einir Roberts, did an excellent job of maintaining these workings documents which informed the quarterly budget monitoring reports, whilst working remotely and on reduced hours. This is visible in the clarity and detail of the end of year accounts. 

## 2. **Maintaining growth** 

During the Pandemic the focus and priorities in relation to growth and development shifted. Ensuring core costs regarding staffing, utilities and other running costs were covered became the priority, along with supporting the local community and particularly those most in need. 

Sustainable growth of the organisation is an important element which has featured previously and this will continue as the Centre moves forward into the post Pandemic recovery period. It will be important to monitor the extent to which the shift in how the Centre creates the majority of its revenue from income through room hire and events to grant funding and donations becomes a more long-term change or whether it is a temporary result of the Pandemic. 

## 3. **Health and Safety of the Organisation** 

The Facilities group continues to monitor and plan for the Health & Safety requirements of the building. This includes the annual review and of all policies, including the Health and Safety Policy. Regular risk assessments for each room will continue to be carried out and recorded throughout 2021, as will PAT Testing and relevant training in Fire Safety, Safeguarding and Food Hygiene for all staff and lead volunteers. We continue to hold an incident book to record accidents and incidents. 

## 9. **TARGETS FOR 2021-22** 

## **SETTING TARGETS FOR 2021 – 2022** 

Although the initial response phase to the Pandemic has passed, the impact of changes to the way in which society functions are still evident in the local community. Other significant elements such as Brexit are also impacting on the local community and economy.

**AMBLESIDE PARISH CENTRE** (Company Limited by Guarantee) 

## **ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDING MARCH 2021** 

We acknowledge the important role the Centre played during the Pandemic and the vital role it held within the community prior to that. 

Looking ahead, the Centre aims to ensure it has the resource to provide a safe and inclusive space that is accessible to all members of the community and beyond. To do this, the Centre aims to provide and facilitate others to deliver experiences which encourage connection with others, improve mental and physical wellbeing, aid recovery and increase community resilience. 

## **These targets reflect the ways in which the Centre will aim to achieve that:** 

1. Ensure sufficient income to allow the Centre to remain open and operate in a way that continues to benefit and support the community. 

2. Ensure sufficient income and resource to deliver our project groups, which aim to aid the recovery and increase the resilience of our community. 

3. Support and encourage regular users to provide both revenue for the Centre and experiences for the community that can improve mental and physical wellbeing. 

4. Continue to improve the energy efficiency and reduce the environmental impact of the Centre’s activities both for the local and global community. 

5. Continue to invest in and develop our staff and volunteers to safeguard the Centre’s ability to deliver on the above targets and serve the community long term.

## **Reserves Policy** 

The APC Board of Directors has established a Reserves Policy which helps to explain how **Unrestricted Funds** are managed and provide better clarity in the APC accounts for potential Grant Funders. 

Within this policy there is a designated **Operation and Contingency Fund** . APC has the ability to continue to operate its core activities (office and maintenance plus a contingency for any staffing issues) and to support key community projects, for a period of 9 months from its **Unrestricted Funds** . This approach is taken to mitigate any event that could result in lack of Grants and income being received, plus providing time for the APC Directors to review and amend the appropriate business strategies. 

Throughout the financial year, the Centre received the Government’s Job Retention Scheme furlough payments where applicable and a number of grants and donations due to the Covid-19 pandemic.  Due to the pandemic the lack of revenue due to the inability to open the Centre for room hire was offset by these grants and donations. 

The Trustees have agreed to modify Designated Funds as follows and, in particular, the Major Repairs Fund which has been partly utilised in conjunction with the work required to the Towers. 

Current Funds, Note 16.

**AMBLESIDE PARISH CENTRE** 

**(Company Limited by Guarantee)** 

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF AMBLESIDE PARISH CENTRE** 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021 which are set out on the following pages. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the trustees of the company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act’). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Basis of independent examiner's statement** 

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 I do not express an audit opinion on whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view'. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

2. the financial statements do not accord with those records; or 

3. the financial statements do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or 

4. the financial statements have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). 

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.

**AMBLESIDE PARISH CENTRE (Company Limited by Guarantee) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **Basis of accounting** 

These financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis in compliance with FRS102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland", the Charities SORP(FRS102) Statement of Recommended Practice applicable  to charities and the Charities Act 2011. 

The financial statements have been prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity. 

## **Going concern** 

There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue. 

## **Fixed assets** 

Tangible fixed assets gifted by St Mary's Parish Centre (Ambleside) Trust were added on 1 April 2012 at the net book value stated in the Trust's financial statements as at 31 March 2012. 

All other assets, which cost £200 or more or are gifted with a value of £200 or more, are capitalised as tangible fixed assets. 

## **Depreciation** 

Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an asset, less its estimated residual value, over the estimated useful life of that asset as follows: 

|Leasehold Property|- straight line over the remaining term of the lease ending 31 December 2029|
|---|---|
||(leasehold depreciation commenced on the the date of practical completion|
||of the building of the property by St Mary's Parish Centre (Ambleside)|
||Trust on 8 June 2006)|
|Centre Fixtures Fittings|- 25% reducing balance, commencing when the assets are brought into|
|& Equipment|use|
|Youth Equipment|- 25% reducing balance|



## **Income** 

All income is included in the statement of financial activities when entitlement has passed to the charity, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. 

Income given specifically to provide a fixed asset is initially allocated to the appropriate restricted fund .If the use of the asset then acquired is restricted there is no movement on the restricted fund; if the use of the asset is unrestricted the expenditure is reflected by a transfer from the restricted fund to the appropriate unrestricted fund. 

## **Expenditure** 

This is included in the statements on an accruals basis as a liabilty is incurred. Governance costs are allocated entirely to the Unrestricted Centre General Reserve. 

## **Community Projects** 

Details of Community Projects are shown in the notes to the accounts. Any restricted Community Project income and expenditure is allocated to the relevant Restricted Fund . It is the Trust's policy to allocate any unrestricted income and expenditure relating to a Community Project to the relevant Designated Fund. 

## **2. TRUSTEES' REMUNERATION AND EXPENSES** 

No remuneration directly or indirectly out of the funds of the charity was paid or payable for the year to any trustee or to any person or persons known to be connected with any of them. 

No expenses have been received by any trustee for services provided to the charity.

## **YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **17. i) RECONCILIATION OF MOVEMENT IN FUNDS YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2020 (** _**previous year**_ **)(continued)** 

## **Transfers between funds** 

The deficit £2,136 on the Older Persons Project was funded by the Operational & Community Projects Cash Flow Fund. Youth equipment was purchased at a cost of £308 using restricted Our Place Youth funds. 

A new cooker was purchased at a cost of £2,063 using the surplus of £428 from FareShare Lunches and £1,635 from the Equipment Fund. 

Equipment Fund movement of £4,365 consists of £6,000 from the General Reserve less cooker contribution £1,635. 

## **Trustees Reserves Policy and Centre General Reserve deficit** 

At the board meeting on 19th November 2019 the directors agreed to increase the Trustees Reserves Policy designated funds from £80,000 to £88,000. Their decision was based on the reserves per the statutory accounts for the year ending 31 March 2019 and a budget of break-even for the year to 31 March 2020. However due to a number of factors, especially the unforeseen COVID-19 lockdown, the general unrestricted income was significantly less than expenditure, resulting in a loss for the year. The directors will revise the designated reserves downwards after these accounts are appproved and in light of the on-going COVID-19 situation.
