## **Structure, governance and management** 

## _**Nature of governing document**_ 

The charity is a company limited by guarantee and registered charity. It is operated under the rules of its memorandum and articles of association, incorporated on 14/11/2005 most recently amended by special resolution dated 20/04/2020. It has no share capital and the liability of each member in the event of winding-up is limited to £10. 

## _**Recruitment and appointment of trustees**_ 

Overall management of the company is the responsibility of the directors/trustees who are recruited, elected and co-opted under the terms of the memorandum and articles of association. Day to day project activity is managed by employed staff and carried out by volunteers, self-employed casual workers and employed staff. 

We have regularly reviewed the skills, experience and networks of the trustees in order to see whether we have gaps which require the strengthening of the board. If needed, we have advertised in appropriate sources for trustees like NCVS, through e-mail to sustainable transport groups and through personal recommendation. 

In addition the directors develop a list of potential recruits who might be approached. If the potential recruits show interest in becoming a trustee they are interviewed by trustees who do not know the potential recruit and all trustees decide upon the appointment or not.

## **Trustees' Report** 

## **Objectives and activities** 

## _**Objects and aims**_ 

To promote conservation and protection of the environment by promoting the use of methods of transport which will have the least impact on the environment. 

The Sustainable Travel Collective is a charity promoting and encouraging the development and use of sustainable forms of travel by influencing behaviour change and delivering travel related products and services to a wide range of local communities, from businesses to small neighbourhood groups. In doing this, communities will benefit economically and socially from reduced cost, reduced congestion, increased accessibility, improved environments, better health and well-being and enhanced social cohesion. 

## _**Objectives, strategies and activities**_ 

We provide support, services, consultation and tools to enable individuals and communities to use greener forms of transport, especially those relating to walking, cycling, low carbon vehicles and public transport. 

During this period we supported over 500 keyworkers in accessing their communities and workplaces during COVID through cycling and walking provisions, engaging them around the environmental benefits, improving air quality and supporting physical and mental wellbeing. 

We provided Bikeability support for schools, launched an extensive community bike library project and undertook considerable engagement activities for disability groups. Our work to embed environmentally friendly transport was supported through over 1,800 hours of cycle training and supported hundreds of people who were looking for greener ways to travel. 

## _**Public benefit**_ 

Our activities provide opportunities to support the conservation of the environment, including clear air, reduced congestion and improved health and wellbeing. 

The trustees confirm that they have complied with the requirements of section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission for England and Wales. 

## **Financial review** 

Ridewise were able to make a surplus this year, through a very difficult year impacted heavily by the effects of COVID 19, which included extensive closure of services and office facilities. 

## _**Policy on reserves**_ 

Our policy of reserves is to build up reserves of up to 3 months salary costs. This year we were able to increase our reserves which now stand at £77,927 and we intend to continue to do this over the coming years. 

We see significant risks in the next financial year in our ability to secure sufficient grants and funds to satisfy the increased demands for our support. In addition, there are significant risks which continue to impact us around COVID19, including the greatly increased operating costs of smaller group sessions and the potential for future disruption to delivery through national restrictions.

## **Trustees' Report** 

## **Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities** 

The trustees (who are also the directors of Sustainable Travel Collective Ltd for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with the United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and applicable law and regulations. 

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under company law the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charitable company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

## **Small companies provision statement** 

This report has been prepared in accordance with the small companies regime under the Companies Act 2006. 

The annual report was approved by the trustees of the charity on .................... and signed on its behalf by:

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of Sustainable Travel Collective Ltd** 

**Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Sustainable Travel Collective Ltd ('the Company')** I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the company for the year ended 31 March 2021. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination I have followed the directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner’s statement** 

Since the Company's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member and Fellow of the Association of Charity Independent Examiners, which is one of the listed bodies. I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or 

4. 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.

## **Sustainable Travel Collective Ltd** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2021** 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates** 

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

## **Statement of compliance** 

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 2015) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). They also comply with the Companies Act 2006 and Charities Act 2011. 

## **Basis of preparation** 

Sustainable Travel Collective Ltd 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 notes. 

## **Going concern** 

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. 

The trustees assess whether the use of going concern is appropriate i.e. whether there are any material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The trustees make this assessment in respect of a period of one year from the date of approval of the financial statements. 

## **Exemption from preparing a cash flow statement** 

The charity opted to adopt Bulletin 1 published on 2 February 2016 and have therefore not included a cash flow statement in these financial statements. 

## **Income and endowments** 

Voluntary income including donations, gifts, legacies and grants that provide core funding or are of a general nature is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability. 

## _**Grants receivable**_ 

Grants are recognised when the charity has an entitlement to the funds and any conditions linked to the grants have been met. Where performance conditions are attached to the grant and are yet to be met, the income is recognised as a liability and included on the balance sheet as deferred income to be released.

## **Sustainable Travel Collective Ltd** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2021** 

## **Expenditure** 

All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs. 

## _**Charitable activities**_ 

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them. 

## **Taxation** 

The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Depreciation is calculated to write down the cost or valuation, less estimated residual value, of all tangible fixed assets with a cost exceeding £500 over their expected useful lives on a straight line basis 

## **Depreciation and amortisation** 

Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows: 

|**Asset class**|**Depreciation method and rate**|
|---|---|
|General equipment|20% straight line|
|IT equipment|33% straight line|
|Bicycles|33% straight line|



## **Trade debtors** 

Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business. 

Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the charity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. 

## **Cash and cash equivalents** 

Cash and cash equivalents 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.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2021** 

## **Fund structure** 

Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees' discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity. 

Restricted income funds are those grants for use in a particular area or for specific purposes, the use of which is restricted to that area or purpose. 

## **Pensions and other post retirement obligations** 

The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme which is a pension plan under which fixed contributions are paid into a pension fund and the charity has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions even if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods. 

Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities when they are due. If contribution payments exceed the contribution due for service, the excess is recognised as a prepayment.
