The Trustees are pleased to present their annual report together with the charity's financial statements for year ending 31st December 2025: these are also prepared to meet the Companies Act requirements for a director's report and accounts.

## **Significant activities** 

We deliver our purpose through a number of operations. This year, these have included: 

## **Outside the Box Community Café** 

Awarded Best Café 2025 award in the Ilkley Business Awards, our inclusive community café continued to be a popular and highly valued place for customers and local groups. We have also developed our profile as an events venue with a wide range of celebrations, meetings, classes and events being hosted by the café and at The Arcade. Alongside this, the café continued to provide the key setting for delivery of our Working Life service, supporting our members to gain work experience, employability skills, to develop their confidence, social skills and to be highly visible in the local community.  This unique and award-winning model continued to receive glowing feedback from customers and delivered real impact on our OTB members.

## **Outside the Box Member Services (OTB Choices)**

**REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2025** 

## **Carers and Companions** 

Through this wholly owned and controlled subsidiary business, we deliver homecare and support to elderly people and people with health conditions, physical and learning disabilities. During 2025 we continued to build on our Care Quality Commission (CQC) rated 'outstanding' care quality and market-leading reputation, delivering excellent care and support to those in need in our local community. Our team of highly committed and skilled Community Carers provided much valued care and support to many elderly people, enabling them to continue living in their own homes as independently and healthily as possible. 


Our Independent Living Service (ILS) team provided home and community support to clients, helping adults with a learning disability to move into and thrive in their own supported independent living homes, pursue their life goals and be active, safe and involved in an extensive range of community activities. During 2025, we continued to achieve growth in this service, with families actively choosing us to deliver support to their loved ones. 

## **Workforce and volunteers** 

During 2025, through the delivery of business targets, we have continued to create new employment opportunities and to safeguard the jobs of our employees. As our services have expanded so our staff team has also grown and we now employ 60 people, many of them local residents of Ilkley and the surrounding we offer highly competitive terms, flexibility together with extensive training, development and employee support. 

We could not achieve the success we have without the commitment of our employees and our community volunteers. Our diverse team of volunteers has grown over the period, and we have continued to benefit from the rich mix of skills, expertise and time provided to us by our volunteers.   We had over 30 regular community volunteers providing circa. 4,000 volunteer hours to the charity in 2025, a sizable and very much valued contribution to our work. 

We thank all our employees for their continued commitment and contribution to the work of the charity and express our sincere appreciation to our volunteers for providing their time, skills and experience to our charity. 

## **PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS** 

of living and inflationary pressures and the severe financial constraints on local authorities including social care budgets, rising operational and employer costs, more complex service demand and regulatory changes, are all impacting the charity, as well as the sector as a whole. Moreover, our experience during 2025 has been that recruitment, both of staff and volunteers, has become increasingly demanding, with cost pressures on salaries, competition for talent and a significant downturn in levels of volunteering/regular volunteering (63% of small UK charities report difficulty in recruiting volunteers) from pre-pandemic levels. 

In response to these challenges we remain focused on rigorous budget management, strong governance and a proactive approach to income growth and diversification, alongside a consistent focus on best quality and impactful services for the people that we serve.

**ILKLEY COMMUNITY ENTERPRISE LIMITED** 

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2025** 

Specific plans include: 

- Growing our service offer including through local area expansion and securing new clients and members. This includes working in partnership with Otley Common, launching Outside the Box services to meet local need and demand in our neighbouring area of Otley. This will open up additional opportunities for people with learning disabilities in that area as well as for the Otley 

- Leveraging the full potential of our premises and catering operations including delivering local events for income generation and opportunities for our members and clients 

- Enhancing our links with local schools and colleges, including special schools, and other service providers, to strengthen our pipeline of new members and clients 

- Investing in the training, development and progression of our employees including to support retention and internal career progression (growing our own) 

- Strengthening our volunteer offer, recruitment and support including to reach younger people and to provide more flexible opportunities 

- Continuing to deploy digital technologies and systems to maintain/improve our operational effectiveness and efficiency, and reduce costs where appropriate 

- Actively pursuing opportunities for additional funding and/or value-adding collaborative activities Further strengthening our difference made and impact evaluation evidence base. 

Ensuring that we maintain high quality in our service delivery, are able to clearly evidence our impact and retain a focus on a person-centred approach that is enabling and empowering of our clients and members, will be ongoing priorities. 

As with many in the charity and social enterprise sector, we continue to face real challenges including a dynamic operating environment, recruitment difficulties and rising operational costs. These pressures require us to be ever more agile, efficient and innovative. The creativity, resilience and determination that were defining features of both the origins of the charity and our last 12 years of operation, will continue to underpin our work: ensuring our sustainability, growth and positive place and impact in our local community.

**REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2025** 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial Review** 

The charity, through the meticulous management of our cashflow, substantial success in securing grant and other funding and continuing service delivery through Outside the Box and Carers and Companions, generated a small surplus on unrestricted funds. Net surplus for the year was £21,016 including a net surplus of £23,318 on unrestricted funds and net deficit of £2,302 on restricted funds. Unrestricted reserves were £356,615 at year end. 

The major expenditure of the charity related to: the operation of Outside the Box (Café, Working Life and Choices); service delivery by Carers and Companions; and investment into the maintenance and refurbishment of The Arcade premises. 

## **Principal funding sources** 

The main income streams for the charity comprised: trading income from OTB cafe; fee income for OTB member services; grant funding; and contributed trading income from Carers and Companions. Other income was from a number of sources including grants, corporate and individual donations. 

## **Investment policy and objectives** 

Aside from retaining a prudent level of reserves each year, the charity's funds will be invested in activities to further the objects as set out in our Memorandum and Articles of Association. The Board is committed to reinvesting any surplus funds and will on an annual basis, as part of business planning, review the charity's investment priorities and agree relevant investments to meet identified needs and opportunities aligned to our objects. 

## **Reserves policy** 

The charity implements a reserves policy, agreed by the Board, that addresses the main risks to the organisation, ensures that unrestricted funds and operating surpluses are maintained at a sufficient level to enable activities to be continued at a sustainable level in the event of significant changes in our business operation. 

The Trustees, taking account of Charity Commission guidance, a reasonable period of trading costs, wind up The upper level is set at £180,000 representing the projected unrestricted funds that the charity requires, based on a review of the budget for the forthcoming year and the risks associated with the delivery of that budget. 

As at the year end free reserves, which are calculated as unrestricted reserves less fixed assets and long term funding (over 1 year) and the Charity Bank account as noted below, are £143,632.   The Trustees consider that these reserves are within the target range and are adequate to meet the forthcoming obligations of the charity. 

In line with our loan agreement with The Charity Bank, we retain £15,000 in a Charity Bank account. 

## **Going concern** 

The Trustees and management team continually monitor performance, forecasts, anticipated cash flows and funding levels together with the political and economic environment, in order to manage the charity's future expenditure against its income, and ensure it remains able to meet its commitments. Having considered this the Trustees are of the opinion that the charity will remain viable for the foreseeable future.

**ILKLEY COMMUNITY ENTERPRISE LIMITED** 

## **REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF ILKLEY COMMUNITY ENTERPRISE LIMITED** 

## **Opinion** 

We have audited the financial statements of Ilkley Community Enterprise Limited (the 'charitable company') and its subsidiaries December 2025 which comprise the Consolidated Statement of Financial Activities, the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position, the Charity Statement of Financial Position, the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

In our opinion the financial statements: 

- December 2025 and of 

   - ended; 

- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and 

- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. 

## **Basis for opinion** 

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report.  We are independent of the group and charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements.  We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. 

## **Conclusions relating to going concern** 

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. 

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. 

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. 

## **Other information** 

The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon. 

Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. 

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.  We have nothing to report in this regard. 

## **Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006** 

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: 

- the information given in the Report of the Trustees for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and 

- the Report of the Trustees has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. 

Page 13 



**REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF ILKLEY COMMUNITY ENTERPRISE LIMITED** 

## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception** 

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the group and charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Report of the Trustees. 

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: 

- adequate accounting records have not been kept or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or 

- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or 

- certain disclosures of trustees' remuneration specified by law are not made; or 

- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or 

- the trustees were not entitled to take advantage of the small companies exemption from the requirement to prepare a Strategic Report or in preparing the Report of the Trustees. 

## **Responsibilities of trustees** 

As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the group and charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

Page 14 



**REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF ILKLEY COMMUNITY ENTERPRISE LIMITED** 

## **Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements** 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. 

Extent to which the audit was capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud 

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below 

We identified areas of laws and regulations that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the financial statements from our knowledge of the business and sector, enquiries of directors and management, and review of regulatory information and correspondence. We communicated identified laws and regulations throughout the audit team and remained alert to any indication of non-compliance through the audit. 

We discussed with directors and management the policies and procedures in place to ensure compliance with laws and regulations and otherwise prevent, deter and detect fraud. 

Based on this understanding we designed our audit procedures to identify non-compliance with such laws and regulations identified as potentially having a material effect on the financial statements. Our procedures included review of financial statement information and testing of that information, enquiries of management and examination of documents, analytical procedures to identify unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate fraud, and procedures to address the risk of fraud through director or management override of controls. 

At the completion stage of the audit, the engagement partner's review included ensuring the audit team had approached their work with appropriate professional scepticism and thus the capacity to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations and fraud. 

The primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of fraud rests with those charged with governance and management, and we cannot be expected to detect non-compliance with all laws and regulations. There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and the further removed non-compliance of laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it. In addition, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement relating to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment. 

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors.

**ILKLEY COMMUNITY ENTERPRISE LIMITED** 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2025** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **Basis of preparing the financial statements** 

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, with the exception of investments which are included at market value. 

The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the company and rounded to the nearest £. 

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated. 

## **Going concern** 

At the time of signing these accounts, having considered the economic climate, the Trustees expectations and intentions for the next 12 months, and the availability of working capital, the Trustees are of the opinion that the charity will remain viable for the foreseeable future and accordingly these financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis. 

## **Preparation of consolidated financial statements** 

The consolidated financial statements include the results of the charity and its subsidiary undertaking drawn up to the reporting date. All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation. 

## **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. 

## **- Incoming resources with related expenditure** 

Where incoming resources have related expenditure (as with fundraising or contract income) the incoming resources and related expenditure are reported gross in the SoFA. 

## **- Client fee income** 

Members are invoiced at the end of each month for services used during that month, and recognised in the accounts in that month. 

## **- Grants and donations** 

Grants and donations are included in the SoFA when the charity has unconditional entitlement to the resources. 

## **- Contractual income and performance related grants** 

This is only included in the SoFA once the related goods or services have been delivered. 

## **- Grants with performance conditions** 

Where the charity receives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the specified service or output has been met. 

## **- Grants payable without performance conditions** 

These are only recognised in the accounts when a commitment has been made and there are no conditions to be met. Grants are released in line with the expenditure that meets the conditions of the grant. Where grants include the acquisition of fixed assets, the fixed assets are written off fully in line with the grant release. 

## **- Tax reclaims on donations and gifts** 

Incoming resources from tax reclaims are included in the SoFA at the same time as the gift to which they relate.

**ILKLEY COMMUNITY ENTERPRISE LIMITED** 

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2025** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued** 

## **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. 

## **Goodwill** 

Goodwill, being amounts paid in connection with business acquisition, is amortised evenly over its estimated life of 4 years. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost (or deemed cost) or valuation less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses.  Cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as intended. 

Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset on a systematic basis over its expected useful life as follows: 

Long leasehold 10 83 years Fixtures & fittings 3 years Computer equipment 3 years 

## **Stocks** 

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. 

## **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. 

## **Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits** 

The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme.  Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate. 

## **Donated goods** 

## **- Gifts in kind** 

Gifts in kind are accounted for at a reasonable estimate of their value to the charity or the amount actually realised. Gifts in kind for sale or distribution are included in the accounts as gifts only when sold or distributed by the charity. Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable. 

## **- Donated services and facilities** 

These are only included in incoming resources (with an equivalent amount in resources expended) where the  benefit  to the charity is reasonably quantifiable, measurable and material. The value placed on these resources is the estimated value to the charity of the service or facility received. 

## **- Volunteer help**

**ILKLEY COMMUNITY ENTERPRISE LIMITED** 

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2025** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued** 

## **Financial instruments** 

The company only enters into liabilities; these include trade and other debtors and creditors, bank balances, loans from banks and other third parties, contractual provisions of the instrument. 

Basic financial assets (other than those classified as payable within one year) are initially measured at cost and are subsequently carried at cost or amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment losses. Basic financial assets classed as receivable within one year are not amortised. 

Basic financial liabilities (other than those classified as payable within one year) are initially measured at present value of future cash flows and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest method. Basic financial liabilities classed as payable within one year are not amortised. 

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amount reported in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 

## **Investments** 

Fixed asset investments are stated at amortised cost. 

## **Individual Income Statement** 

As permitted by Section 408 of the Companies Act 2006, the Income Statement of the parent company is not presented as part of these financial statements
