Southern Brooks Community Partnerships
Report of the trustees
For the year ended 31 March 2022
The Trustees, submit their annual report and the financial statements of Southern Brooks Community Partnerships for the year ended 31 March 2022. The Trustees have adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” (FRS 102) in preparing the annual report and financial statements of the charity.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in notes to the accounts and comply with the Charity’s governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and 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 published on 16th July 2014.
Our purpose
The purpose of the charity is to promote the benefits of the inhabitants of South Gloucestershire and surrounding area (henceforth referred to as the “Area of Benefit”) without distinction of role, age, race, gender, sexual orientation, ability or of political, religious or other opinion, by associating together the said inhabitants and the local authorities, voluntary and other organisations in a common effort to advance education and to provide facilities in the interests of social welfare for recreation and leisure time occupation with the object of improving the conditions of life for the aforementioned inhabitants.
The organisation shall be non-party in politics and non-sectarian in religion.
Our objectives are to bring people and organisations together to promote education and social justice to improve lives for residents across South Gloucestershire. It is important to us that we work with those people who don’t reach the thresholds of other services or may be excluded or marginalised. In setting our objectives and planning our activities our Trustees have given careful consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit. Our key objectives for the year:
-
To deliver high quality community development and health and wellbeing services that support individuals and communities, helping people achieve what matters to them;
-
▪ To connect and strengthen partnerships and alliances in order that Southern Brooks and the VCSE sector thrive; and
-
To deliver financial sustainability and operational excellence with a reputation for integrity and partnership working.
The Charity’s vision
We build connections and provide support to strengthen individuals and communities. We are stewards, not owners, led by what matters to local people and responding to their needs and aspirations. Everything we do begins with a legacy in mind, to help people develop the skills, confidence and capacity for communities to thrive.
The Charity’s Values
Our core values determine the way that we work:
-
Include and value;
-
Protect the environment;
-
Recognise potential; and
-
Celebrate diversity.

For the year ended 31 March 2022
The Charity’s activities
Our activities centre around 2 key areas: Health & Wellbeing and Sustainable Communities.
We aim to integrate our offer in order to provide the best possible service so that:
-
People have improved physical, emotional and mental health leading to increased self-esteem and confidence;
-
People have the skills and confidence to be responsible for their own futures; and
-
People work together to influence change.
The Trustees have referred to the guidance in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the Charity’s aims and objectives and in planning the Charity’s future activities. In particular, the Trustees have considered how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set.
Achievements and performance in 2021-22
Southern Brooks has continued to feel the impact of the pandemic both internally with staff and externally in the communities we serve, but despite that we continue to thrive as an organisation, maintaining our income at £1.5m.
We developed a hybrid working model that allowed staff to reconnect with one another and supported our business aims of greater integration, allowing them to work from home where necessary.
We clearly articulated our strengths as an organisation and focused confidently on what we do well. We have also reviewed the breadth of our work and concluded that youthwork should be transferred to a specialist provider in 2022-23.
We saw growth in social prescribing as Primary Care Networks embraced the role, seeing the potential for non-clinical staff to work in a way that allows for wider determinants of health (eg debt, housing etc) to be addressed as part of a holistic package of support.
Individuals referred to our wellbeing staff have increased in complexity and the majority of people came to us with poor mental health. This new approach allows us to address these issues jointly.
Key activities
Delivering high quality services that support communities, helping people achieve what matters to them. For example:
-
We have secured contracts from South Gloucestershire Council up to 2028 for community development, community cohesion, and from CVS South Gloucestershire for volunteer centres, allowing us to build on our work in Kingswood, Patchway and Yate in particular;
-
We worked in partnership with Orchard Medical Centre to set up a Growing Group in their garden, with patients and members of the public, integrating community development with supporting health and wellbeing;
-
We worked with local residents to grow vegetables and flowers in three additional growing spaces/allotments. Residents included older people, some from BAME backgrounds, some with poor mental health and some with physical disabilities.
-
We supported refugee families from Afghanistan as part of the Government’s Resettlement Programme, working alongside South Gloucestershire Council colleagues to ensure they had access to housing and local services; and
-
We led the development of a Food Alliance, supporting access to low-cost food.

Southern Brooks Community Partnerships
Report of the trustees
For the year ended 31 March 2022
Connecting and strengthening partnerships and alliances in order that Southern Brooks can further expand our Community Development and Health & Wellbeing services and enable the VCSE sector to thrive:
-
We expanded our social prescribing service;
-
We secured an extension of the “One You South Glos” wellbeing programme to March 2023;
-
We secured the contract with Sirona to be the VCSE lead locality partner for Health and Wellbeing in South Gloucestershire;
-
We worked with mutual aid groups to develop by providing training and networking opportunities to enable them to continue delivering support to their local communities; and
-
As a member of the VCSE Leaders’ Board in South Gloucestershire, Southern Brooks contributed to sector development, liaising with South Gloucestershire Council and South Gloucestershire Locality Partnership to secure funding that will support a distributed leadership model in the sector. This allows CEOs and senior staff from other VCSE organisations to represent the leaders’ board at key strategic meetings that contribute to strategy and operational developments for all our residents.
Delivering financial sustainability and operational excellence with a reputation for integrity and partnership working:
-
We have consolidated our internal finance processes and systems, which in turn, has improved the accuracy of our financial information and forecasting;
-
Developed a mutually supportive relationship with SGS College;
-
Increased our reach for unrestricted funding; and
-
Held our inaugural internal fundraising activity.
Plans for the future - 2022-23 and beyond:
The Board and Leadership Team undertake a review of the Three Year Strategic Business Plan each spring. Our plan has been refined to more clearly reflect our role and ambitions and to ensure all our activities fit within the strategy and will be delivered to high standards.
Our role in Community Health will continue to flourish with Primary Care Networks, as social prescribing contracts are extended to March 2024. As the role becomes better known and understood, we are receiving requests for specialist social prescribing posts that will support discharge from hospital and others focussing on physical activity that will come to fruition in 2022-23.
We continue to have a strong relationship with South Gloucestershire Council and are contributing to the Keep it Local agenda designed to bring about transformation in the way the public and VCSE sectors work together.
South Gloucestershire is one of the fastest growing local authority areas in the country and we are hoping to work in some of the new communities using an asset-based approach to help new residents establish community activities. Our focus will be on helping people to help themselves, so that the communities will become self-sustaining, needing us for a maximum of five years.
We are planning work around the climate emergency, in particular working with smaller VCSE organisations in partnership with CVS South Gloucestershire.
Our work will continue to focus on reducing inequalities and we will use data (as well as intelligence from all our teams) increasingly to inform our offer making sure we are not leaving anyone, or any group, behind.

Report of the trustees
For the year ended 31 March 2022
We are investigating social value tools and as HACT is the preferred tool of partner organisations elsewhere in Bristol and North Somerset, we will plan to introduce it in 2022-23.
As the Lead Locality Partner for Health & Wellbeing we will continue to champion the work of the VCSE sector, to promote partnerships and collaboration and to reach out to smaller organisations ensuring they are included, and their voices heard. We will have funding from South Gloucestershire Locality Partnership for a new Partnerships Manager post to support this work and are partnering with CVS South Gloucestershire.
Financial review
Income
Total income decreased this year to 31 March 2022, by £30,783 from £1,565,224 in 2020-21 to £1,534,441 in 2021-22. An analysis of income is shown in the Statement of Financial Activities and accompanying notes.
Expenditure
Total expenditure for the year of £1,421,864 represents a small increase in total expenditure of £29,247 from £1,392,617 in 2020-21. The Statement of Financial Activities and notes to the accounts provide further analysis.
Net movement in funds
Net income of £112,577 for 2021-22 comprised £28,920 on restricted funds, along with £83,657 surplus on unrestricted funds.
Reserves policy
The Board reviewed the Reserves Policy during the year, noting that Southern Brooks receives most of its income by way of time limited grants and contracts from SGC, the NHS and other bodies. Income and costs are predictable and end dates are known.
A distinction was made between reserves needing to be held for short term risks and longer term risk. Reserves for short term risks are needed to mitigate in-year financial risks, such as interim cover for key personnel, managing project changes and delays in confirmation of project extensions or start dates. Reserves for longer term risks are needed to mitigate the financial impact of changes and risks foreseen in the 3-year strategic plan and risk register and to allow Southern Brooks to address the challenges whilst minimising the impact of any required changes. These are quantified at 3 months’ core team and resource costs plus other identified financial risks. The level of reserves required on these bases was calculated at £149,600 at 31 March 2022. Southern Brooks had £150,426 general free funds at 31 March 2022, materially satisfying the policy.
This policy is reviewed as part of the annual budgeting cycle and the 3-year rolling strategy review, and immediately in the event of a material change in Southern Brooks’ activities, size or risk profile.
Principal risks and uncertainties
Southern Brooks has a Risk Register which is reviewed regularly by the Senior Leadership Team and the Board. The register takes into account all major risks the Charity may be exposed to in terms of likelihood and impact on the business if they happen. This review includes the operational, strategic, reputational and financial impact combined with a likelihood score.

Southern Brooks Community Partnerships
Report of the trustees
For the year ended 31 March 2022
The key risks identified:
-
Change in political administration in South Gloucestershire in 2023;
-
Cost of living increases; and
-
Unsuccessful/slow recruitment.
Going concern
After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the Accounting Policies.
Structure, governance and management
The governance regulations for the Charity are contained within the Foundation Constitution, a document which was updated in 2019.
The Charity is a CIO (Charitable Incorporated Organisation) with up to 12 Trustees appointed for a term of 3 years by a resolution passed at a properly convened meeting of the Charity Trustees. Trustees meet a minimum of quarterly and require 3 people in order to be quorate. The meetings are formally minuted and a register of attendance is kept and there was a 77% attendance rate in 2021/22.
The maximum continuous period a Trustee can serve is nine years. The Chair, Vice Chair and Treasurer are appointed for a term of three years and are reappointed as required once each term ends. Any Trustee currently serving more than nine years will not be eligible for re-election at the end of their term.
In addition to the Board, there are the following sub-committees: The Development Oversight Committee Members: Harry Partington, Paul Timmins, Philip Grew, CEO Meets: Four times a year as per the Terms of Reference, more often if specific issues require it.
Employment and Remuneration Committee
Members: Andy Bell, Paul Timmins, Jules Moore, CEO Meets: As often as required.
Finance and Risk Oversight Committee
Members: Andy Bell, Jules Moore, Harry Partington, CEO, Head of Finance Meets: Four times per year, more often if specific issues require it.
Policy and Governance Committee
Members: Margaret Slucutt, David Bell, Chris Walker, Karen Rochester, Head of HR Meets: Annually / bi-annually as required.
In selecting individuals for appointment as charity Trustees, the Charity Trustees have regard to the skills, knowledge and experience needed for the effective administration of the CIO.

Southern Brooks Community Partnerships
Report of the trustees
For the year ended 31 March 2022
The CEO is responsible for strategic and operational management and has the authorisation of the Board of Trustees.
Alison Findlay has been the CEO since January 2021 and was supported in 2021-22 by the Senior Leadership Team comprising:
-
Head of HR;
-
Head of Finance;
-
Head of Sustainable Communities;
-
Youth work and Employment support manager;
-
Business Development manager; and
-
Head of Health and Wellbeing.
The structure chart is shared with all staff and funders, as required. These senior leaders discharge their responsibilities through the activities of a skilled and committed workforce.
Trustees are appointed following application and interview with the Chair, CEO and at least one other Trustee. Following a satisfactory interview, candidate Trustees are invited to join at least one Board meeting as an observer. At the end of these meetings, the Board will review the candidate Trustee’s contribution and then invite them, if appropriate, to be a full member. All new Trustees receive induction training and mentoring to assist their personal development as Southern Brooks Trustees. As new members of the Board, they are provided with an induction pack which includes the major policies, Three Year Strategic Plan, Annual Report, Memorandum and Articles and other relevant and corporate documentation. They are then invited to meet the Chair and the CEO for an induction, and they also attend the next available staff induction meeting which are held regularly throughout each year. It is the individual responsibility of Trustees to ensure they update their skills and participate in development opportunities offered, which could include attendance at conferences, training and less formal support and advice all of which can be facilitated through Southern Brooks as required. All Trustees are expected to show a commitment to the core purpose and values of the organisation and the role which would include attending meetings, reading papers in advance and volunteering for working groups as required.
Related parties and relationships with other organisations
Southern Brooks is committed to working in partnership where appropriate to achieve targets and improve performance. Southern Brooks has a number of formal contractual relationships with other organisations including Sirona Care and Health, Developing Health and Independence, The Diversity Trust, Primary Care Networks in South Gloucestershire, Second Step, Carers Support Centre and with Creative Youth Network for youthwork delivery, CVS South Gloucestershire for sector transformation, and SGS College.
Fundraising
In 2021-22 Southern Brooks carried out all fundraising activities in house, principally by the Business Development Manager and the CEO.
Fundraising activity has centred on applying for grants and negotiating funding agreements, and tasks have focussed on further developing relationships with existing funders, for example with South Gloucestershire Council and with the Bristol, North Somerset and South Gloucestershire Clinical Commissioning Group. We have received no complaints about our fundraising activity, and we do not engage in asking members of the public or existing/former service users for donations.

Southern Brooks Community Partnerships
Report of the trustees
For the year ended 31 March 2022
Statement of responsibilities of the trustees
The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year, which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and the incoming resources and application of resources, including the net income or expenditure, of the charity for the year. In preparing those financial statements the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice 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 charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the constitution. The trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charity's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.
Members of the charity have no liability to contribute to the assets of the charity in the event of winding up. The trustees are members of the charity but this entitles them only to voting rights. The trustees have no beneficial interest in the charity.
Auditors
Godfrey Wilson Limited were re-appointed as auditors to the charity during the year and have expressed their willingness to continue in that capacity.

Independent auditors' report
To the members of
Southern Brooks Community Partnerships
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Southern Brooks Community Partnerships (the 'charity') for the year ended 31 March 2022 which comprise the statement of financial activities, balance sheets, statement of cash flows and the related 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, including Financial Reporting Standard 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion, the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charity's affairs as at 31 March 2022 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then 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 Charities Act 2011.
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 Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity 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 charity'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 auditor’s report 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.
9
Independent auditors' report
To the members of
Southern Brooks Community Partnerships
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 there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. 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.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the trustees’ report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities Act 2011 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
sufficient accounting records have not been kept;
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
we have not obtained all the information and explanations necessary for the purposes of our audit.
Responsibilities of the trustees
As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out in the trustees’ report, the trustees 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 they 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 charity’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 charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
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 an auditor’s report 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.
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 procedures we carried out and the extent to which they are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, are detailed below:
10
Independent auditors' report
To the members of
Southern Brooks Community Partnerships
(1) We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework that the charity operates in, and assessed the risk of non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations. Throughout the audit, we remained alert to possible indications of non-compliance.
(2) We reviewed the charity’s policies and procedures in relation to:
-
Identifying, evaluating and complying with laws and regulations, and whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance;
-
Detecting and responding to the risk of fraud, and whether they were aware of any actual, suspected or alleged fraud; and
-
Designing and implementing internal controls to mitigate the risk of non-compliance with laws and regulations, including fraud.
(3) We inspected the minutes of trustee meetings.
(4) We enquired about any non-routine communication with regulators and reviewed any reports made to them.
(5) We reviewed the financial statement disclosures and assessed their compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
(6) We performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected transactions or balances that may indicate a risk of material fraud or error.
(7) We assessed the risk of fraud through management override of controls and carried out procedures to address this risk. Our procedures included:
▪Testing the appropriateness of journal entries;
▪Assessing judgements and accounting estimates for potential bias;
▪Reviewing related party transactions; and
▪Testing transactions that are unusual or outside the normal course of business.
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. Irregularities that arise due to fraud can be even harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.
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 auditor’s report.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities in preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).
Southern Brooks Community Partnerships 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 note.
b) Going concern basis of accounting
The accounts have been prepared on the assumption that the charity is able to continue as a going concern, which the trustees consider appropriate having regard to the current level of unrestricted reserves. There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.
c) Income
Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Income from the government and other grants, whether 'capital' grants or 'revenue' grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.
Income received in advance of provision of training and other contracted services is deferred until criteria for income recognition are met.
d) Donated services and facilities
Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item, is probable and the economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), general volunteer time is not recognised.
On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.
e) Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity: this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.

1. Accounting policies (continued)
f) Funds accounting
Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of the charity. Designated funds are unrestricted 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 charity's work or for specific projects being undertaken by the charity.
g) Expenditure 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.
Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.
h) Grants payable
Grants payable are recognised as expenditure on the earlier of a) when the charity has a present obligation to transfer resources; and b) when the charity ceases to control the resource (e.g. via transferring funds to the grant recipient).
i) Allocation of support costs
Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Governance costs are the costs associated with the governance arrangements of the charity, including the costs of complying with constitutional and statutory requirements and any costs associated with the strategic management of the charity’s activities. These costs have been allocated between cost of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities on the following basis, based on the proportion of direct costs:
| s: | ||
|---|---|---|
| Restated | ||
| 2022 | 2021 | |
| Raising funds | 2.2% | 2.2% |
| Charitable activities | ||
| Health, wellbeing and | 93.5% | 93.6% |
| sustainable communities | ||
| Sector support | 2.0% | 0.6% |
| Training | 2.3% | 3.6% |
| Other charitable activities | 0.0% | 0.0% |
j) Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided 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:
Plant and machinery 20% reducing balance Fixtures and fittings 20% reducing balance Computer equipment 3 years straight line

1. Accounting policies (continued)
k) 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.
l) 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.
m) Creditors
Creditors and provisions are recognised where there is 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.
n) Financial instruments
The charity 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 recognised at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
o) Redundancy and termination costs
Where an employee receives a termination benefit the full cost is recognised at the date the employee is notified.
p) Pension costs
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme for its employees. There are no further liabilities other than that already recognised in the SOFA.
The charity used to participate in a defined benefit pension scheme for its employees. This is a multi-employer pension scheme and is currently in deficit. A provision has been made for the charity's share of the deficit, based on the net present value of future contributions payable under the agreed deficit funding arrangement (see note 15). The charity has no liability under the scheme other than for the payment of those contributions.
q) Accounting estimates and key judgements
In the application of the charity's accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
The key sources of estimation uncertainty that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements are described below.

Depreciation
As described in note 1j to the financial statements, depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write down the cost of each asset to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life.
Defined benefit pension scheme
As described in note 1p to the financial statements, a provision is held at on the statement of financial position representing the expected future value of payments towards a defined benefit pension plan in deficit. The discount rate used is that of good quality corporate bonds, which is deemed to introduce an element of estimation.

15. Pension commitments
Southern Brooks Community Partnership used to operate a defined benefit pension scheme. The pension scheme deficit crystalised on 31 March 2014 and the liability was transferred to Southern Brooks Community Partnerships. The charity agreed a repayment plan over 12 years.
Where the scheme is in deficit and where the charity has agreed to a deficit funding arrangement the charity recognises a liability for this obligation. The amount recognised is the net present value of the deficit reduction contributions payable under the agreement that relates to the deficit. The present value is calculated using the discount rate detailed in these disclosures. The unwinding of the discount rate is recognised as a finance cost.
Present value of provision
| Present value of provision Reconciliation of opening and closing provisions Provision at the start of the year Unwinding of the discount factor (interest expense) Deficit contributions paid Remeasurements - impact of any change in assumptions Income and expenditure impact Interest expense Remeasurements - impact of any change in assumptions Assumptions Rate of discount |

The discount rates shown above are the equivalent single discount rates which, when used to discount future recovery plan contributions due, would give the same results as using a full AA corporate bond yield curve to discount the same recovery plan contributions.
