LONDON COMMUNITY BOXING LIMITED (A company limited by guarantee)

DIRECTORS’ AND TRUSTEES’ REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2022

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

The charity London Community Boxing (‘LCB’) was constituted as a company limited by guarantee on 7 November 2012 and is therefore governed by a memorandum and articles of association. The articles of association of a charitable company, as provided by the Charity Commission, were adopted at the end of November 2012. On 28 May 2013, on the advice of the Commission, these were amended by special resolution to state the charity’s revised Objects (Clause 4) as follows:

The charity’s objects (“The Objects”) for the public benefit are the promotion of community participation in healthy recreation, in particular by the provision of facilities for amateur boxing and boxing fitness training in London.

The provisions of the governing document were fully complied with during the period under review, under the direction of LCB’s five Trustees – Leigh Bruce (Executive Chairman), David Lavarack (Deputy Chairman), Ricardo Whyte, Madeleine Aldridge and Bevis Allen.

As the charity grows, we will keep the size and composition of the board under review. When we identify the need for new trustees, we first define the set of skills and experiences that will be additive to the future governance of the charity, identify appropriate candidates, and finally conduct interviews of shortlisted candidates. At our current small size, new candidates are interviewed by all members of the Board of Trustees.

Company structure: LCB has two subsidiary companies:

Early in 2013 LCB Boxing Ltd became a full subsidiary of London Community Boxing Ltd, and was affiliated for the subsequent boxing season at the Black Prince Community Hub for administrative purposes. The club was re-affiliated at LCB’s new hub premises in Peckham, South London in November 2015. Fees payable by its squad members represent an additional revenue stream for the charity, as well as offering interested young people a viable exit route from recreational boxing fitness into the competitive arena.

OUR AIMS, OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statements 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).

The Trustees confirm that they have complied with their duty under the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit. LCB’s charitable objects for the public benefit are as stated above.

LONDON COMMUNITY BOXING LIMITED (A company limited by guarantee)

DIRECTORS’ AND TRUSTEES’ REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2022

Our mission in executing these objects is:

To harness the power of sport as a driver of personal and community advancement, to accomplish;

Our vision, of:

In November 2015, we opened our Peckham-based boxing gym, serving as a headquarters for the charity; a welcoming, inclusive facility for the whole community; a means of sustaining and expanding the effectiveness of our outreach work; and a home for our competitive amateur boxing club.

LCB delivers boxing-based events, classes and activities both on an outreach basis and at our community boxing gym. Our ‘reach’ into the community is further extended via the charity’s mobile boxing arena, which can be erected within an hour in almost any indoor or outdoor space – serving as a powerful, iconic tool for engaging even the hardest-to-reach beneficiaries and contributing significantly to our work towards genuine inclusivity and social change.

OUR ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

In each annual report, we list five critical success factors in developing the charity – financial stability and growth; operational excellence; network development; developing and maintaining a strong market position; and talent management – as well as priorities for the year under each heading. Below is a summary of progress in each area.

1. Financial stability and growth:

Building core income through our gym is an important element of LCB’s funding strategy. In the 12 months covered by this report, core pre-tax income in our gym declined sharply (76%) due to the Covid-19 pandemic and resulting lockdowns and other special measures to control the spread of the virus. Re-establishing pre-Covid 19 levels of core income and growth over the next years will be a central priority.

However, thanks to emergency Covid support funding from Comic Relief, Sport England and Southwark Council, as well as rent relief from our landlord, The Arch Company, we were able to navigate the difficult challenge. Charterhouse in Southwark also provided crucial support for our programmes for young people. Donations from individuals virtually dried up during the height of the pandemic as the financial stresses and uncertainty understandably caused people to pull back. Getting back to a more normal fundraising environment is clearly extremely important for the future.

DIRECTORS’ AND TRUSTEES’ REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2022

(iii) Developing funded outreach activities

During the period covered by this report, we have continued to deliver the outreach activities that are core to our purposes, mission and vision, despite the disruption to all activities caused by the pandemic. As of this writing, there are signs of a strong recovery of these activities.

Mental Health and Disability

‐ In partnership with Kathy Adcock (HCPC Registered Clinical Psychologist) and her social enterprise, InYourCorner, and Southwark Local Authority, we ran Connect, a noncontact boxing programme with an integrated mental health component for young men aged 11-18. The pandemic had a significant impact on the programme as repeated lockdowns and distancing measures forced us to adapt fast to the conditions. Despite this challenge, the outcomes were a significant achievement, particularly for group programmes with 12–15-year-olds. Goal based outcomes for this group and qualitative feedback have been particularly strong, demonstrating that this work continued to improve emotional wellbeing in this cohort, despite the challenging environment. This is testament to the effectiveness of the flexible and learning approach taken by the partnership to the project, which helped improve and adapt the offer for young people over time.

Our sessions for young people with complex physical and mental needs could not go ahead as usual due to Covid restrictions. At the time of writing, some have resumed (with the Cherry Garden Primary School) will others (e.g. Rockbourne youth centre) will resume as soon as permitted.

Young People

Despite repeated stoppages during the year, our sessions with the Southwark Youth Offending Service have resumed whenever possible during the pandemic, and this partnership remains strong and active.

When allowed under Covid rules, we continued to run non-contact sessions for young people 17years old and under each week at a cost per participant of £1. These popular, well attended sessions have attracted a wide variety of participants from all parts of the community. We have expanded these sessions from 6 per week prior to the pandemic to 9 sessions per week. Sessions of our England Boxing affiliated amateur boxing club -- three one and a half hour sessions each week for under 16s and 3 two-hour sessions each week for young people 16 and over at a weekly cost of £5 per week for each participant –were also affected by the pandemic but have resumed normal operation as of this writing.

Weekly sessions for local schools ceased during the pandemic, but have either resumed or are set to start again as the rules allow.

We continued to work with partners, such Southwark Council, in Your Corner, Burgess Sports, Inspire, South London and Maudsley NHS Trust and others to develop targeted outreach programmes.

DIRECTORS’ AND TRUSTEES’ REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2022

Parkinson’s

‐ In partnership with PDKinetics, we ran weekly sessions for people with Parkinson’s. PDKinetics is an advanced movement programme that incorporates both physical and cognitive activity for people with Parkinson's. Its neuroactive programmes are designed specifically for the person with Parkinson’s to help slow the progression of the condition while helping with balance, strength, and coordination, helping increase participants’ confidence, fitness and wellbeing. After the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic, the sessions continued online five days a week.

2. Operational excellence

LCB aspires to be regarded as a leader for the way in which it is managed; for the quality of its service and interactions with its partners, customers and suppliers; for the effectiveness of its governance and management practices; for the quality of its coaching; for the strength of its culture; and for its integrity and transparency.

Work progressed across most areas during the year, with particular focus on Covid—19 processes and safeguards.

3. Network development

LCB’s vision – to contribute to social cohesion as well as personal and community development through the medium of boxing and boxing fitness activities – requires cooperation with a range of likeminded organisations that complement and enhance our work. For some programmes, such as our Connect programme for young people with mental health issues and our sessions for people suffering from Parkinson’s, those partnerships are essential. During the period, we continued to work with established partners and developed a number of significant new relationships, in particular with various departments within Southwark Council.

4. Developing and maintaining a strong market position

When operational, we continued to attract strong participation from across our activities, though the pandemic caused significant disruption, including periods of complete closure. Rebuilding operations to pre-pandemic levels will take time. Average footfall in the gym continued to progress, increasing sharply in the gym since the gym reopened post lockdown’.

5. Talent management

Attracting and motivating high-quality coaches, volunteers and other professionals with specific expertise, committed to our vision and mission, is critical. All aspects of talent management, from recruitment to training to cultural compatibility to drive and commitment, remain a top priority.

We continue to benefit from the work of high-quality volunteers who boost the team by helping with to a variety of tasks, from manning reception, to assisting with outreach events, and providing expertise. Feedback from our partners and participants on the personal and technical quality of the team, as well as the culture of LCB, has been positive. We have been able to support our team through the pandemic, giving us a good chance of rebounding as operations return to normal.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

A net deficit of £14,172 for the year (2021 – surplus £25,986). Of those funds, £31,829 (2021 – £4,949) were general funds which, being neither restricted nor designated, represent the free reserves of the charity.

5

LONDON COMMUNITY BOXING LIMITED (A company limited by guarantee)

DIRECTORS’ AND TRUSTEES’ REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2022

Reserves policy

LCB’s ultimate strategy is to become self-sustaining, through the model outlined in Aims, objectives and activities outlined above and elsewhere in this Report. It is envisaged that reserves will be built through planned operating surpluses, over and above those which are channelled back into the charity to support its operations in line with our objects, vision and mission.

It is our intention at present to maintain free reserves of no less than three months of core annual expenditure, which, based on current operations, is approximately £60,000. We will review this following the next Financial Review period.

PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS

LCB’s plans for future periods focus on five critical success factors: financial stability and growth; operational excellence; network development; developing and maintaining a strong market position; and talent management.

These all remain as valid today as they have been in previous years. However, managing the special challenges caused by the pandemic, both financially and in the way we engage with our users and run our programmes is our single-minded focus and is likely to remain so for the next couple of years.

As of this writing, we have made encouraging progress across all priorities.

LONDON COMMUNITY BOXING LIMITED (A company limited by guarantee)

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2022

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

1.1 Basis of preparation of accounts

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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) – (Charity SORP (FRS 102) Revised), The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

London Community Boxing (LCB) meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy or note.

1.2 Group accounts

The accounts contain information about LCB as an individual charitable company and do not contain consolidated financial information as the parent of a group. The company is exempt from the requirement to prepare consolidated financial statements as the group qualifies as a small group (note 11).

1.3 Preparation of accounts on a going concern basis

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

No key judgements have been made by the charitable company which have a significant effect on the accounts.

The trustees do not consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period.

1.4 Income

Income is recognised when the Charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received, and amount can be measured reliably.

11

LONDON COMMUNITY BOXING LIMITED

(A company limited by guarantee)

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2022

1.5 Expenditure recognition and irrecoverable VAT

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

Expenditure is recognised when a liability is incurred. Contractual arrangements and performance related grants are recognised as goods or services are supplied.

1.6 Allocation of support costs

Resources expended are allocated to the particular activity where the cost relates directly to that activity. However, the cost of overall direction and administration of each activity, comprising the salary and overhead costs of the central function, is apportioned on the following basis which are an estimate, based on staff time, of the amount attributable to each activity:

Community Gym - 53.5% Outreach - 11.6% Support costs - 29.1% Governance costs - 5.8%

Support and governance costs are re-allocated to each of the activities on the following basis which is an estimate, based on staff time, of the amount attributable to each activity:

Community Gym - 82.1% Outreach - 17.9%

Governance costs are the costs associated with the governance arrangements of the charity. These costs are associated with constitutional and statutory requirements and include any costs associated with the strategic management of the charity’s activities.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2022

1.7 Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of charity.

Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose.

Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the Trust’s work or for specific projects being undertaken by the Trust.

1.8 Operating leases

1.9 Tangible fixed assets

Items of equipment are capitalised where the purchase price exceeds £2,000. Depreciation costs are allocated to activities on the basis of the use of the related assets in those activities. Assets are reviewed for impairment if circumstances indicate their carrying value may exceed their net realisable value and value in use.

Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis at rates calculated to write down the cost of each asset to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life. The depreciation rates in use are as follows:

Furniture and equipment - 5 years Motor vehicles - 5 years Fixtures and fittings - 10 years Leasehold property - The lesser of 10 years or the remaining lease term IT Equipments - 5 years

1.10 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.

1.11 Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

13

LONDON COMMUNITY BOXING LIMITED (A company limited by guarantee)

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS (Cont’d)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2022

1.12 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.

1.13 Financial instruments

The Trust only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

The estimates and underling assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods .
