## **Trustees' Report** 

The trustees present the annual report together with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30 September 2024. 

## **Objectives** 

## **Overview** 

Trawden Forest Community Centre is a volunteer managed site located in the centre of Trawden, a small village in East Lancashire. 

The objects of the charity are: 

to further or benefit the residents of Trawden Forest and the neighbourhood, without distinction of sex, sexual orientation, race or of political, religious or other options by associating together the said residents and the local authorities, voluntary and other organisations in a common effort to advance education and to provide facilities in the interest of social welfare for recreation and leisure time occupation with the objective of improving the conditions of life for the residents, and 

to establish or secure the establishment of a community centre and to maintain or manage or co-operate with any statutory authority in the maintenance and management of such centre for activities promoted by the charity in furtherance of the above objects. 

## **Activities** 

2023/24 was another successful year for the Charity, with the Community Shop, as the Charity’s trading subsidiary, continuing to be our main source of income with a substantial donation received of £30,000 following their year end in 2023. The donation for 2023/24, which will be received in March 2025, will be £45,000. This will help us towards our goal of being self-sufficient financially, enabling us to continue to maintain and improve the whole site, support our two paid salaries, and continue to reinvest back into the community that supports us so staunchly. 

Community Centre private bookings were buoyant for both bar and non-bar events, including weddings, christenings and other private functions, along with regular children’s parties, training sessions and meetings. Alongside one-off bookings, our regular hirers such as yoga, pilates, dance fitness, ceramics, Cubs, Brownies and Guides enhanced the rich programme of activities at the Centre. 

Our own regular groups, including Tai Chi, parent & toddler group, craft group, Friendship Group and carpet bowls, plus regular informal chat groups in the library, also contributed to this varied programme. 

Volunteers also organised a variety of community and fundraising activities, including an ‘Old Trawden’ slideshow, whisky night, wine tasting night, a festive fair and our New Year’s Eve party. We also held two beer & music festivals and a Northern Soul afternoon, which we hope will become a regular fixture. The Volunteer Coordinator organised volunteer celebrations in December and April, along with a variety of other socials throughout the year, giving volunteers from across the Charity the chance to come together. 

Just after the end of the reporting period but worth mentioning here, the Charity celebrated the 10th anniversary of receiving the keys to the Community Centre, at the beginning of October 2024. A celebration fun day was held, with activities organised by a whole range of community and voluntary groups and businesses from across the area.

## **Trustees' Report (continued)** 

We continued to receive a grant from the National Lottery Community Fund, which covers the salary costs of our two part-time posts over three years. The Volunteer Coordinator and the Community Support Worker positions are vital to continuing to develop and support the work of the charity. Planning is underway to bid for a further three years’ funding from the National Lottery but, alongside that work, plans are in place to continue to fund these vital positions. The income from the community shop puts us in a secure position to be able to do this. 

We also successfully completed the work on our portacabin, providing much-needed additional meeting space, and funded through the Lancashire Environment Fund. We also received grants from Ovo Energy and Trawden Forest Parish Council towards the erection of a bicycle repair station, and received a small local members grant for the Friendship Group from County Councillor Jenny Purcell. 

We were really pleased to be able to launch our own Community Fund during 2023/24 and made nine grants of £250 to small local organisations, including Trawden Forest Primary School, Guides, Brownies, Cubs, Trawden Bowling Club, Trawden Athletics Club, Trawden Agricultural Show, Trawden Garden Festival and Rossendale & Pendle Mountain Rescue. We hope to be able to build on this in the future. 

Finally, we were delighted to welcome the Princess Royal to Trawden on 10th April 2024, when she visited the Charity and the Pub. As part of the visit, she met a wide range of volunteers and members / users from across the whole Charity, other local organisations (the Parish Council, Trawden in Bloom, uniformed groups), and the pub committee, licensee and family. Steven Wilcock, as the founding Chair of Trustees, acted as host and MC, and did a great job of showcasing the village. 

## **Public benefit** 

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** 

The accounts show the financial position of the charity at the year end. 

The previous year's accounts have been restated after changing the accounting treatment of donations from the subsidiary from a receipts basis to an accruals basis. 

## **Reserves** 

At the year end, unrestricted reserves, excluding property and subsidiary company, amounted to £118,784. . 

Reserves are held to: 

(a) finance the day to day operations of the charity 

(b) to ensure the charity’s ability to fund both of its employees for the next 3 years, following the expected expiry of the current grant funding at the end of the financial year 2024/25. 

(c) to meet planned capital expenditure to maintain and improve the site, including an extension to the community centre, an overhaul of the frontage / entrance to the shop, and improvements to the car park areas, including a path connecting the two buildings, for which planning permission has already been granted, and in the future further solar panel and battery improvements to reduce / eliminate reliance on the grid.

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Trawden Forest Community Centre for the year ended 30 September 2024. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity trustees of Trawden Forest Community Centre 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 Trawden Forest Community Centre'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 my 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 Trawden Forest Community Centre 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 accounting 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.

The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts. 

## **Going concern** 

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

## **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. 

## _**Donations and legacies**_ 

Donations and legacies are recognised on a receivable basis when receipt is probable and the amount can be reliably measured. 

## _**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. 

## _**Gift aid**_ 

Incoming resources from tax reclaims are included in the Statement of Financial Activities at the same time as the gift to which they relate. 

## **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. 

## _**Raising funds**_ 

These are costs incurred in attracting voluntary income, the management of investments and those incurred in trading activities that raise funds.

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Individual fixed assets are initially recorded at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. 

## **Depreciation** 

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**|
|---|---|
|Land and buildings|2% straight line|
|Furniture and equipment|25% reducing balance (previous year<br>15%)|



## **Stock** 

Stock is valued at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell, after due regard for obsolete and slow moving stocks.

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.
