| Financial Review | ||
| Review of the charity’s financial position at the end of the period |
Para 1.21 | Our financial position remained difficult still coming out of the COVID-19 pandemic which further exasperated this position and the beneficiaries still sceptical around COVID. |
| Statement explaining the policy for holding reserves stating why they are held |
Para 1.22 | The charity aims to maintain reserves equivalent to 3 months operating costs. This figure has fluctuated during the year. |
| Amount of reservesheld | Para 1.22 | 0 |
| Reasons for holding zero reserves |
Para 1.22 | Due to a decline in attendance this directly reduced project income. This led to an increase in expenditure that resulted in the charity drawing on funds held and borrowing £21k from a Government Bounce-back loan. |
| Details of fund materially in deficit |
Para 1.24 | |
| Explanation of any uncertainties about the charity continuing as a going concern |
Para 1.23 | Due to the Covid-19 restrictions imposed there was an increased burden on the charity due to our principal activity being face to face delivery and adapting to a hybrid provison In addition, the profile of our service users who are in the majority from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic communities may mean that the financial impact from the lockdown will be seen in terms of take-up of our services as we move into the 22-23 academic year. |

Independent examiner’s statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
-
the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with such records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with relevant accounting requirements under section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
-
the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
