## **Pin Green Community Association Charity number 1156808 Financial Review for the year ending 31[st] March 2024** 

**The centre and coffee shop have been busy this year so there has been a steady income. The Increase in minimum wages was applied to all staff except the 2 managers who had a 2% increase. The trustees reviewed the financial situation in September and felt that the association was in a strong enough position to give the 2 managers the 6% and backdate this.  Fundraising for the coffee shop canopy began and by the April the full amount (£10,000) had been raised. This included 2 grants, £2,000 from Stevenage Community Trust and £3,000 from Hertfordshire Community Trust and a generous donation of £1700 from an individual donor. In September the manager submitted her resignation and a new manager was appointed who started in November. Unfortunately this appointment did not work out so the process was repeated and another new manager appointed. This meant that the original manager was not able to leave and had to repeat all training. Having 2 managers for a total of 5 months has eaten in to the bank account.** 

**The canteen has had an increase in the number of people coming for dinner. This will make the lunch club more sustainable. A grant of £3000 was awarded from Stevenage Works Community Chest Fund to subsidise the cost of the dinners, to help families and individuals with the cost of living crisis. Most who come are elderly, on a pension or benefits.  We still have some money left from a grant last year to provide meals from meal vouchers provided from The Food Shed, we still have money in this pot, due to not having a lot of vouchers being redeemed, despite encouraging for them to be utilised.** 

**Reserve Policy. It is the Associations policy to try and keep 3 months worth of operating costs in reserve including enough to cover redundancy costs. £2,000 was added to the reserves making a total of £17,000. The amount needed will be revised in the coming year as the amount needed for redundancy will drop due to the manager leaving.**

## **Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Pin Green Community Association – Registered Charity No. 1156808** 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Pin Green Community Association (the Charity) for the year ended 31 March 2024. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity trustees of the Charity, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’). 

I report in respect of my examination of the Charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Independent examiner’s statement** 

I have completed by examination. I confirm that no material 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 Charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or 

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

3) the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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. 

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.
