All roles are temporary, on a year or two-yearly contract subject to funds and funding. Wages have been calculated on equivalent roles from council pay scales or following the living wage calculations. We have 5 Trustees: Deb O’Brien; Sue Powell-Wilde, Julie Kay, Andrew Antley and Tony Jones. All our Trustees have experience of the local area and the needs of the community, each of our Trustees have either lived or worked in the area and have a personal and professional understanding. Julie Jones continues to be our financial co-ordinator. Including staff, Trustees and Finance person we have a committee of 24. We are supported by 23 regular volunteers who do a few different roles and a range of hours. Since last year we have opened our sensory room, this is for the community, 3 mornings per week with a sensory worker who supports on a sessional basis. This has been a welcomed resource for the community, there is no charge to use the room, and we accept donations for drinks and snacks. We have started to run 2 sessions per week chair fitness and chair yoga, which is run by a fully qualified experienced lead, this is another successful project, many of the adults who attend these sessions have made many positive comments e.g.; helped them gain company and new networks; has helped both their physical and mental well-being. We continue to provide lunches 3 times per week and bacon/sausage butties one morning per week, we gained a 5-star food rating from the council. The lunches consist of a main course and pudding with a refillable drink, there is a suggested donation of £3, however, we do not ask for money, children always eat free. We continue to provide lunches 3 times per week and bacon/sausage butties one morning per week, we gained a 5-star food rating from the council. The lunches consist of a main course and pudding with a refillable drink, there is a suggested donation of £3, however, we do not ask for money, children always eat free. We work with several services who hold drop-in sessions at our centre, i.e. Involve Northwest; Community Connectors; PCSO's; Anti-Social Behaviour Team; Lifelong Learning; Cre8ting Communities; Credit Union. In addition to this we run art club for adults with Fred, craft club, meditation and chair fitness and yoga. For children we run a variety of sessions, our constitution states that we will offer children and young people activities and experiences to positively influence life chances and choices without the cost implications. Therefore, all activities for children and young people area offered with no cost. 5 **CHARLOTTE’S BRIGHTSIDE C.L.C. TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 21 SEPTEMBER 2024** The activities we offer children and young people are youth club sessions, 2 per week, one for younger children and one for older. Baby/ child sensory room x 3 sessions per week; homework club; art club; ukulele; karate and cookery club. These all run in term time. All staff members and volunteers are DBS checked; we source these checks from the Youth Federation. All members who prepare and manage food have at minimum a food hygiene level 2 qualification. Anyone working with children is safeguard trained and are aware of our policies in relation to this. Improvements to the building since last year include, lights changed to LED lighting, new flooring downstairs and new carpet tile flooring upstairs. We have a new CCTV system and a new alarm system installed. We have updated and improved our fire systems, we are updated with PAT testing and have our gas/electric safety checks in place. Our public liability, volunteer and building insurance is renewed each November and we are covered for up to £5,000,000. Our worker on 30hrs now attends a BNI networking meeting weekly, subs are £50 a week, however we get lots of financial, practical and material support from this group. Our Trustees agreed we will pilot this for a year and assess the outcome. This worker also attends a monthly ‘In the Loop’ networking group with another member of staff. There is no cost to this, the networking is extremely valuable in developing relationships and businesses who support us. ## **Future plans** We continue to run over 5 days; our main activities are Monday to Thursday. This includes our social supermarket, welfare advice, clubs for the community, a social cafe, lunch club, supporting loneliness, art club, craft club, chair-based exercise and supporting older people. Our newly planned activities are Bingo on a Monday afternoon; rEVErse, a domestic abuse drop in for those who want/need advice in relation to healthy relationships, we have commenced and continue to develop our women’s circle, a confidential group run weekly. We continue to run and develop the following activities for children, after school, young youth club 6yrs – 8yrs, older youth club. 9yrs +, art club, homework club, ukulele, karate and cookery. We have a counsellor who works on an ad hock basis from her own setting, Kirsty Downes. Since last year we have opened our sensory room, we open this for the community three morning a week with a sessional worker, it is available to use other days if a family, group or school. We are developing the sensory use to hopefully open during weekends for a drop-in basis. We are now working with Fareshare, Big Help, which we are accessing more, due to our expanding relationship with Big Help we are discussing opening our Social Supermarket more hours per week. Now that we have bigger premises we will concentrate on the above. ## **Reserves policy** The Charity holds unrestricted funds for the purpose of supporting its charitable objectives and activities. Where grant income and other incoming resources are received and designated for a specific project, restricted funds are created with incoming resources and resources expended in respect of that project being allocated to the fund. Our overheads 6 have increased due to moving buildings. The revenue from the sale of our old building has secured the 2 x 20hr posts and the 10hr post for 2 years from July 2024. We have also designated £65000 for the basement, this includes site assessment, emptying of all the rubble, damp course, wall studding, plastering, replacing flooring, installing heating and decorating. ## **CHARLOTTE’S BRIGHTSIDE C.L.C. TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT - CONTINUED FOR THE YEAR ENDED 21 SEPTEMBER 2024** ## **Statement of trustees' responsibilities** The trustees are responsible for preparing the accounts in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. Law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare accounts for each financial year which give true and fair view of the fund's financial activities during the year and of its financial position at the end of the year. In preparing accounts giving a true and fair view, the trustees should follow best practice and: - select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; - make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; - state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the accounts; - prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the fund will continue in operation The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the fund and enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the applicable law. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the fund and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. On behalf of the trustees: Andrew Antley ……………………………………………………… A Antley – Trustee ……05/02/2025………………………………………………… Date 7 ## **CHARLOTTE’S BRIGHTSIDE C.L.C. REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT EXAMINER TO THE TRUSTEES OF CHARLOTTE’S BRIGHTSIDE C.L.C.** I report on the accounts for the year ended 21 September 2024 which are set out on pages 9 to 17. ## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is required. It is my responsibility to: - examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act, - to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and - to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. ## **Basis of the 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 the 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** In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements: - a. to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and - b. to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act have not been met; or 2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
