## Objectives and Activities 

## Charity Objects from Governing Document: 

The relief of learning disabled people in Basingstoke through the provision of employment, volunteering and development opportunities and the operation of a cafe in an effort to build their self-esteem, skills, independence and integrate them into mainstream employment. 

## Summary of main activities undertaken for the public benefit: 

The Trustees of the Cafe Project have read the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit and as a group have considered this guidance in their planning and decision making. 

During the reporting period, the Trustees have delivered public benefit in pursuit of their stated charitable objects through the creation of an operational cafe and associated student vocational programme. 

This has not only directly benefited the students but also the wider community through access to the services offered by the cafe. 

## Additional details of objectives and activities 

To develop a catering facility and appropriate stepping stone training and employment experience for people with learning disabilities, according to their individual needs. This may be to position them for mainstream employment or provide a ‘day opportunities’ version of supported training for those students whose particular vulnerabilities will preclude them from mainstream employment. 

To identify potential employers, advocate the skills of people with learning disabilities and provide transitional support to place them in paid or voluntary employment. 

To engage people in fundraising activities to support the financial requirements of the Café Project. 

To empower people with learning disabilities to help themselves and raise awareness of the challenges people with learning disabilities face. 

As a charity working towards financial sustainability, we rely heavily on the generosity of time, spirit, commitment and dedication of our staff and volunteers to develop the organisation in a friendly and professional way to create an environment that changes people's lives. 

## Policy on Financial Reserves 

It is the policy of the charity to maintain free reserves at a level which balances our objectives to develop and support services with our need to remain financially stable. 

A minimum level of free reserves equating to at least six months of unrestricted expenditure is considered sufficient to cover salaries, administration and support costs and to respond to emergency needs which arise from time to time. 

In addition, there is also a need to designate certain sums from free reserves for anticipated expenditure in the short to medium term. 

This would generally be for capital expenditure, for grant funds allocated to a specific project, and will be specified in the notes to the annual accounts.

## Key activities in reporting period: 

Since our last report of 2021-2022, the Café continues to thrive for the community and all our other customers. Our Tripadvisor reviews are all excellent and remain at 5*. The footfall is growing weekly and often customers are turned away or, must be put on a waiting list. 

Training continues to be an opportunity for our students to develop their confidence, social and hospitality skills; for example: health and safety, customer care, and all aspects of practical work in the café and kitchen. 

We have reintroduced student of the month. An AGM and awards ceremony was held in September 2023 and a family day in August which were both well attended and enjoyed by all. 

The café is developing new business relationships with Baxter Storey a contract catering company. They are also linked with a project called Crumbs, a similar organisation to the café based in Christchurch, which has been operating for a much longer period than The Dome. We are offering each other support, guidance, new ideas and new links with industry. 

## AIMS for 2024-2025 

The café is now at full capacity both for students and customers. The café Dome project is looking to expand in the future. We would like to be able to offer more students with learning disabilities a more sheltered and enhanced training environment for those who would benefit from a quieter pace of learning. With support and guidance 

The café remains viable with money to invest.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 September 2023**

The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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 (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. 

## **Income** 

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

## **Expenditure** 

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 a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. 

|Plant and machinery|-|33% on reducing balance|
|---|---|---|

|Computer equipment|-|33% on reducing balance|



## **Taxation** 

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities. 

## **Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees. 

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. 

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
