Plymouth Sports Charity Limited Trustee Directors’ Report For the Year Ended 31 January 2021
The Trustees have pleasure in presenting their annual report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 January 2021. The provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” (SORP FRS 102- implemented 1 January 2019) have been adopted in preparing the annual report and financial statements of the charity.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing Document
The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 30 August 2011 and registered as a charity on 29 February 2012. The company was established under a Memorandum of Association which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association. In the event of the company being wound up members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £10.
Recruitment, Appointment of Trustees
The Directors of the company are also charity Trustees for the purposes of charity law. They give their time voluntarily and receive no benefits from the charity. All day to day operational matters are delegated to the management team. Under the Articles of Association there is no automatic requirement for rotation/retirement of Director/Trustees.
When recruiting Trustees, the existing Trustees seek individuals with a skill set complimentary to theirs. The aim is that the Trustee/Directors as a group, have a diverse set of skills that individually benefit the objectives of the charity.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
The charitable company’s objective is to promote for the benefit of the inhabitants of Plymouth and the surrounding area the provision of facilities for recreation or other leisure time occupation of individuals who have need of such facilities by reason of their youth, age, infirmity or disablement, financial hardship or social and economic circumstances in the interest of social welfare and with the object of improving the conditions of life of the said inhabitants.
Predominantly the aim of the charity is to holistically help and improve the lives of its beneficiaries through physical activities. We do this by delivering education on fitness and exercises and coaching to improve the physical, mental and social health of its users. We us innovative techniques to offer a bespoke and unique learning environment that develops the beneficiary, creating lifelong skills. The charity’s vision is to be the leading provider of accessible health and fitness sessions within the south west of England. We believe in only focusing on what we excel at and that is fitness and health. By achieving the charities aims we will further the legal purpose of the charity which is to relief of those in need, by reason of youth, age, ill-health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage. We will also arguably be purposely advancing health by using our exercise referral scheme to “promote activities that have a proven beneficial effect on health”.

Plymouth Sports Charity Limited Trustee Directors’ Report For the Year Ended 31 January 2021
The Trustees have complied with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 and have had due regard to the Charity Commission’s public benefit guidance. Before any funding applications are written and any projects planned the trustees evaluate what services are in the best interest of the general population of Plymouth, a good example being improving men’s health in Plymouth due to the 54% of death in males being from poor diet and 67% of death of males in Plymouth being due to a lack of physical activity. The trustees also ensure that each project is as inclusive as possible and optimising the charities impact of public benefit.
We have been relieving those in need by delivering prescribed exercise suitable for each service users condition, situation and previous experiences. We have also met this need by delivering free and accessible accredited courses and qualifications. Moving forward the charities strategy will be to continue meet the need of the public by using physical activity sessions to improve physical and mental health. This is due to the success of our present and previous projects that have directly made this positive impact to the service users such as PSC Active Communities, MAN Power and the Second Chance project.
The criteria the charity uses to assess success is individualised to each project and each funding organisation request however all project successes are based on achieving the targeted number of members of the public over a twelve month period. Moving forward the charity will utilise the success criteria of physical and mental health improvements which are collected via the relevant measurements. These measurements include: the use physical measurements, blood pressure checks, BMI calculator and scales to measure the beneficiaries’ improvements towards their physical health and the use of mood star charts at the start, during and at the end of the project to measure the improvements of the beneficiaries’ mental health.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Early in the tax year of 2020/21 the charity was focussed on delivering projects to improve the health and well-being of its users, projects such as the Reaching communities fund and Children in Need were running successful sessions each week. In March 2020 the Covid-19 pandemic started which forced the charity to spend some time developing new techniques and delivery models. Along with this we received further funding to run projects throughout the year, to include Garfield Weston, The Veterans Foundation and The National Lottery Covid Response Fund. Each project had its own specific aims, such as improving the lives of veterans, unemployed or isolated individuals. Much of our delivery was conducted online via zoom and mobile apps and since the reopening of many facilities has remained a useful mode of delivery.
During the tax year of 2020/21 the charity helped over 160 men and 40 women to improve their physical health over a twelve-month period during the MAN Power and Covid Response fund projects. This number has resulted in our two-year target number of the Big Lottery Reaching communities project being reached. We did this by delivering our exercise referral scheme and personal training programme which included health checks, personalised fitness programmes that lead each beneficiary up to the recommended 150 minutes of activity per week and continual monitoring and evaluation of their improvements.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
The charity generated income in the year to 31 January 2021 of £120,115 (2020 - £346,621). Of this income, £61,712 was in relation to restricted funds (2020 - £304,459).
Total expenditure for the year was £189,980 (2020 - £133,628), of which £126,830 (2020 – £90,098) was spent on restricted funds. This has therefore generated a deficit of £69,865 (2020 – surplus of £212,992), of which £65,118 (2020 – surplus of £214,361) was in relation to restricted funds, before transfers.
The significant difference in both income levels and surplus/deficit between 2021 and 2020 arises from a quirk of charity accounting.
In the year to 31 January 2020, the charity accounting standard (the SORP), required that we recognise £162,325 of income which we had not yet received and which had not been spent. This therefore boosted both income and surplus in 2020 by this amount, and can be seen in accrued income in the balance sheet (shown as part of debtors).
In the year to 31 January 2021, we have received £70,781 of this income which was previously recognised. We have therefore spent these funds and recognised the associated costs but not been able to recognise the income (as it was recognised last year).
The result of this is that we show a deficit in the 2021 accounts of £69,865, which would be a small surplus should the income have been recognised in line with the expenditure.
This has also had the impact of reducing accrued income to £91,554, which will be reduced over the course of the next 2 years.
On this basis and taking into account the above noted circumstances, the trustees confirm that they have prepared the accounts on the going concern basis.
Reserves policy
The charity is still in the position of developing its reserves and therefore does not have a formal reserves policy. The eventual aim is to carry sufficient reserves to cover unrestricted costs for a period of 3-6 months. As at the year end the charity were not holding any free reserves, however these are being developed towards the required level of approximately £15,750- £31,500.

Covid-19
Our trading consists of contracts with local schools to deliver sports coaching and physical education lessons. We also sell mandatory training to mainstream organisations and accredited qualifications to the public. Coronavirus has ceased all our unrestricted training resulting in the charity losing multiple school contracts which we have held over 8 years. We have been unable to deliver any mandatory training due to the lock down restrictions and as the accredited qualifications we sell are sport and fitness courses within gym and leisure settings we have had to cease trading in this respect. We are continuing with grant funded activities and have taken advantage of the government schemes available to us to limit expenditure as far as possible.
Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities
The trustees (who are also directors of Plymouth Sports Charity Limited for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees Directors’ Report (incorporating the directors’ report) and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

-
(a) select appropriate accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
(b) observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;

Plymouth Sports Charity Limited Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 January 2021
1.4 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. All expenditure is gross of VAT which cannot be recovered and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates.
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services to its clients. Direct costs are allocated to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them are shown as contributions to core expenditure.
Other support costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity.
1.5 Fixed assets
Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets over their estimated useful lives at the following rate:-
Sports equipment - 25% reducing balance
Office equipment - 33% reducing balance
Motor vehicles - 25% reducing balance
Fixed assets are valued at cost less depreciation. Fixed assets are reviewed annually for impairment.
1.6 Debtors
Accrued income comprises amounts due from funders and is recognised when the charity is entitled to the grant, receipt is probable and the amount can be measured reliably. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid.
1.7 Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and in hand comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.
1.8 Creditors
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 recognised at their settlement amount.
1.9 Taxation
The company is a registered charity and is therefore not liable to corporation tax to the extent that income and gains are applied to the charitable objectives of the charity.
Page 11
Plymouth Sports Charity Limited Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 January 2021
1.10 Fund accounting
General funds are unrestricted funds receivable or generated for the objects of the Bureau without further specified purpose and are available as general funds.
Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the Trustees for particular purposes.
Restricted funds are to be used for specific purposes as laid down by the donor. Expenditure which meets this criterion is charged to the fund, together with a fair allocation of management and support costs.
1.11 VAT
The charity is not VAT registered and therefore all costs are inclusive of VAT.
1.12 Covid-19
The Trustees have considered the implication of the Covid-19 pandemic on the operations of the charity. Whilst the charity had to cease operations during lockdown, costs were cut to a minimum and funders have remained supportive, allowing deferral of projects where necessary. Taking into account all reasonable circumstances, the Trustees believe that the charity remains a going concern and no adjustments to the accounts are necessary.
1.13 Financial instruments
The charity only holds basic financial instruments as defined in FRS 102. The financial assets and liabilities of the charity and their measurements are as follows:
Financial assets – trade and other debtors are basic financial instruments and are debt instruments measured at amortised cost as detailed in note 11.
Cash at bank – is classified as a basic financial instrument and is measured at face value.
Financial liabilities – trade creditors, accruals and other creditors are financial instruments, and are measured at amortised cost as detailed in note 11. Taxation and social security are not included in the financial instruments disclosure definition. Deferred income is not deemed to be a financial liability, as the cash settlement has already taken place and there is an obligation to deliver services rather than cash or another financial instrument.

9 Statement of funds (cont.)
-
The general unrestricted fund represents the unrestricted funds of the charity at the year end.
-
• Active Together funding came from Children in Need for a project that uses exercise and games to improve fitness as well as mental and social health. Our sessions aim to educate, motivate and inspire children whilst improving self-confidence, communication, leadership and problem solving.
-
The Anglian Trust funding was provided for to run introductory fishing sessions for children in and around Plymouth, aimed at 6 - 16yr olds from disadvantaged areas who hadn't previously had a go at fishing. They were taught to utilise the time to improve communication and interact with new friends.
-
The Devon Com Fund came from Devon Community Foundation was to run Covid relief sessions. These were online fitness and workshops focused around nutrition and exercise aimed at 30-75 year olds suffering from isolation and poor health.
-
The Edward Gosling Funding Provides individualized exercise programs in a supervised environment for those patients effected by clinical conditions including: anxiety, hypertension, diabetes, obesity, back pain, angina, depression, osteoporosis, cancer, arthritis and other conditions.
-
The Elm Grant funding aims to educate 20 men about anatomy and physiology, health and activity, safety and nutrition in order improve their long term physical and mental health. The project will provide them with an accredited and recognized 1[st] 4sport Level 2 Gym Instructing course that can also help them get back in to work or further education.
-
The Garfield Weston funding was provided for health and fitness sessions focusing on the most disadvantaged people from Exeter, Torquay, and Paignton.
-
The Veterans Fund funding was provided to fund a project to engage veterans with a cycling project.
-
Man Power funding came from Big Lottery to provide an accessible and inclusive health and wellbeing centre for disadvantaged males aged 16+ who have poor physical health and limited opportunities to reach their potential. This will have a knock on improvement in their mental and social well-being.
-
Access Reach Funding was received from the Reach Fund to improve the financial controls and management within the charity, produce a 3 year forecast and produce a strategic plan.
As noted in the Trustees Report, during the year it was identified that previous statutory accounts prepared and filed were not in accordance with the Trustees understanding of the financial position of the charity. These errors had resulted in the charity showing a surplus on restricted funds and a deficit on unrestricted funds, which was not representative of the actual position. Investigation identified that the restricted funds showing a surplus had all finished, with final reports submitted to funders and no reclaim of funding requested. The surplus from restricted funds from 2020 and earlier was therefore transferred out to unrestricted funds in the prior year.
