## **Report of the trustees for the year ended 31[st] March 2025** 

The trustees present their annual report and financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31[st] March 2025. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the charity’s trust deed, the Charities Act 2011 and 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 published (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019). 

## **Objectives and activities** 

The purposes of the charity are to promote social inclusion for the public benefit by preventing people from becoming socially excluded, and the main activities are for the wellbeing of older people of the area. 

The trustees confirm that they have referred to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit when reviewing the Charity’s aims and objectives, in planning future activities, and setting the policies for the year. 

The charity furthers its charitable purposes for the public benefit through volunteers delivering community support for the benefit of older and disabled people of the area, providing social activities and outings as well as health and wellbeing classes. 

Our activities include a luncheon club, exercise and yoga classes, a range of arts and crafts activities 

and urgent shopping support. Our aim is to provide social, practical and emotional **support;** all of which enable members to remain independent and to have a meaningful, healthy and enjoyable older age. 

We recruit, train and support volunteers who help us run these services and activities based around their interests, skills and experience. 

## **A review of our achievements and performance: How our activities delivered public benefit** 

Our main achievements during the year was reducing the impact of social isolation by getting people out of their homes and back into a community building where our activities help foster social support and keep service users in contact with each other, reducing isolation and loneliness. Over 100 clients benefit from our services.  Some have had intensive help over a short period of time whilst others benefit from ongoing day to day activities. 

## **Financial review** 

Our financial review is held after our AGM. Our current funding from Manchester City Council will end on 31[st] March 2025.  We have been informed that our funding will be extended for a further year, taking us to 31[st] March 2026. During this period, we will be invited to undertake an application process to secure three year funding, moving forward. 

## **Investment powers and policy** 

The trustees, having regard to the liquidity requirements of operating the charity, have kept available funds in an interest-bearing deposit account. 

## **Reserves policy and going concern** 

The balance held in unrestricted reserves at 31[st] March 2025 was £52,946 of which all are free reserves, after allowing for funds tied up in tangible fixed assets. 



2 

## **BURNAGE GOOD NEIGHBOURS** 

The trustees aim to maintain free reserves in unrestricted funds at a level which equates to 

approximately three months of unrestricted charitable expenditure. The trustees consider that this level will provide sufficient funds to respond to applications for grants and ensure that support and governance costs are covered. 

The Charity's main source of income is grants and fees. The Trustees consider that it is appropriate to prepare the accounts on a going concern basis and, consequently, the accounts do not include any adjustments that would be necessary if these sources of income should cease. 

## **Risk management** 

The trustees have conducted a review of the major risks to which the charity is exposed and systems have been established to mitigate those risks. 

## **Plans for Future Periods** 

To continue to secure funds in addition to the central Supporting Communities grant in order to sustain our activities. 

## **Structure, governance and management** 

The Charity is a registered charity and is constituted under a trust deed dated February 2012. 

## **Appointment of trustees** 

New trustees are appointed by existing trustees and serve for one year after which they may put themselves forward for re-appointment. The Trust Deed provides for a minimum of 9 trustees, to a maximum of 12 trustees, with no more than 3 trustees due for re-appointment in any one year. At the bi-monthly trustee meetings, the trustees agree the broad strategy and areas of activity for the Charity, including investment, reserves and risk management policies and performance. The day to day administration of the Charity is delegated to a senior manager. 

## **Trustee induction and training** 

At the AGM trustees are appointed from the community who will serve for the following year. New trustees will be given suitable training and support where required.

## **Trustees responsibilities in relation to the financial statements** 

The charity trustees are responsible for preparing a trustees’ annual report and financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the charity trustees to prepare financial statements for each year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, of the charity for that period. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- Select suitable accounting principles and then apply them consistently; 

- Observe the methods and principles in the applicable Charities SORP; 

- Make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- State whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures that must be disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

- Prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is appropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the applicable Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations, and the provision of the Trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF BURNAGE GOOD NEIGHBOURS REGISTERED CHARITY NO. 1146074** 

I report on the accounts of the charity, for the Year Ended 31[st] March 2025 which are set out on pages 6 to 16. 

## **Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner** 

The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity 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. The charity is preparing accrued accounts and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants. 

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 

- To state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of Independent Examiners 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 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: 

- to keep accounting records have in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and 

- to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting  requirements of the 2011 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.

## **Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31st March 2025** 

## **1. Accounting policies** 

## **(a) Basis of preparation and assessment of going concern** 

The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant notes to these accounts. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011. 

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. 

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. 

## **(b) Funds structure** 

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by the donor or trust deed. There are 15 restricted funds. 

Unrestricted income funds comprise those funds which the trustees are free to use for any purpose in furtherance of the charitable objects. Unrestricted funds include designated funds where the trustees, at their discretion, have created a fund for a specific purpose. 

Further details of each fund are disclosed in note 17. 

## **(c) Income recognition** 

All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably. 

Donations are recognised when the charity has been notified in writing of both the amount and settlement date. In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of performance before the charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the charity and it is probable that those conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period. 

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank. Dividends are recognised once the dividend has been declared and notification has been received of the dividend due. 

## **(d) Expenditure Recognition** 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. 

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis. All expenses including support costs and governance costs are allocated or apportioned to the applicable expenditure headings. For more information on this attribution refer to note (f) below. 

## **(e) Irrecoverable VAT** 

Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the expenditure heading for which it was incurred. 

## **(f) Allocation of support and governance costs** 

Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support costs. Governance costs comprise all costs involving the public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice. These costs include costs related to independent examination and legal fees together with an apportionment of overhead and support costs. 

Governance costs and support costs relating to charitable activities have been apportioned based on type of expense. The allocation of support and governance costs is analysed in note 8. 

## **(g) Costs of raising funds** 

The costs of raising funds consists of events and activities and marketing. 

## **(h) Charitable Activities** 

Costs of charitable activities include governance costs and an apportionment of support costs as shown in note 7. 



**BURNAGE GOOD NEIGHBOURS** 

**10** 

## **(i) Tangible fixed assets and depreciation** 

All assets costing more than £500 are capitalised and valued at historical cost. Depreciation is charged on the following basis: 

Office Equipment 25% on cost 

## **(j) Realised gains and losses** 

All gains and losses are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities as they arise. Realised gains and losses on investments are calculated as the difference between sales proceeds and their opening carrying value or their purchase value if acquired subsequent to the first day of the financial year. Unrealised gains and losses are calculated as the difference between the fair value  at the year end and their varying value. Realised and unrealised investment gains and losses are combined in the Statement of Financial Activities. 

## **(k) Pensions** 

The charity administers contributions to an auto enrolment pension scheme on behalf of individuals. The charity has no liability beyond paying the deductions over to the pension provider. 

## **(l) Debtors** 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. 

## **(m) Creditors and provisions** 

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. 

## **2. Related party transactions and trustees' expenses and remuneration** 

The trustees all give freely their time and expertise without any form of remuneration or other benefit in cash or kind (2024: £nil). Expenses paid to the trustees in the year totalled £nil (2024: £nil).
