Trustees' Report for the Year Ended 31 July 2022
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 Standards applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland.
Policies and Objectives
The object of the charity is to maintain a rural Day Nursery for promoting the education of children under six years without selection or limitation save as to a maximum number. The day-to-day running of the nursery is administered by a Management Committee appointed by the Trustees and includes a parent of a child in the Nursery. The Trustees aim to provide quality care and education while keeping the fees as low as possible commensurate with this aim. The Trustees have had regard to the Commission's general guidance on public benefit and to its supplementary guidance on advancing education and on fee charging. Children over the age of 3 can receive up to the equivalent of 15 hours free per week under the government's Early Years Entitlement Funding scheme and in some cases may be eligible for 30 hours. Some 2 year-olds are also eligible.
The Nursery maintains close links with the school, in which it is situated, normally joining together for some activities and sharing resources. This had not been possible because of Covid but is now beginning again. The Nursery is registered to receive Early Years Entitlement Funding and is registered with Ofsted. It is a member of the Early Years Learning Alliance. In determining these objectives the Trustees have paid due regard to the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit.
Activities undertaken to further the charity’s purposes for public benefit
The Nursery is open 5 days a week for morning and afternoon sessions during school term times. During the year a total of 24 children attended the nursery, mainly coming from homes within a 10 mile radius.
The lead practitioner of the nursery had decided not to return to work in August 2021, following her maternity leave. The charity now employs a full-time lead practitioner through a job share arrangement between an existing employee who will be undertaking extra training and qualifications, and a newly hired practitioner. As well as the lead practitioners, there are three part time nursery practitioners employed. There are also two practitioners available to cover for absence. Some administration is carried out by the lead practitioners and the rest is done on a voluntary basis by members of the Trustees. Staff attend regular in-service or online training sessions. The trustees have agreed an increase in staff wages which can be funded by the confirmed increase in government grant income.
Financial review
During the year to 31 July 2022 income of £56,168 (2021 - £58,915) was received and total expenditure amounted to £52,217 (2021 - £49,779). A small surplus of £3,951 (2021 - £9,136) was therefore achieved in this period. These accounts also reflect closing reserves of £51,559 (2021 - £47,608), all of which are unrestricted in both periods.
Good attendance meant that income allowed for refurbishment of the outdoor resources. Income came from fees from parents and Early Years Entitlement funding via Cumbria County Council.
Pupil Premium funding comes as part of the education grant funding we receive from Cumbria County Council. It is restricted funds allocated to eligible children and is specifically allocated to help disadvantaged pupils. The funding can be used to purchase resources or support for that child. There has been no Pupil Premium Funding in this period and there were no eligible children this year.
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.
Reserves Policy
We aim to hold at least £16,200 (being approximately one month of expenditure plus required redundancy payments) and no more than £50,000 (being approximately six months of expenditure plus required redundancy payments) in reserves at the year end.

Trustees' Responsibilities in relation to the Financial Statements
The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards.
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 of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these 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 estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable 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 charity will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations and the provisions of the trust deed. They are responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection fraud and other irregularities.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of
Ivegill Nursery CIO
I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 July 2022, which are set out on pages 6 to 15.
Your attention is to drawn to the fact that the Charity has prepared the financial statements in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has since been withdrawn.
We understand that this has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The Charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
-
follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145 (5) (b) of the 2011 Act; and
-
state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act 2011; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act
have not been met; or
- (2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

1 Accounting policies
Statement of compliance
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. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the second edition of the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.
The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared to give a ‘true and fair’ view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a ‘true and fair view’. This departure has involved following Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities:Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
Basis of preparation
The charity 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
These financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.
Fund accounting policy
Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees' discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity.
Further details of each fund are disclosed in note 16.
Income and endowments
Income from 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.
Investment income is recognised on a receivable basis.
Income from charitable activities includes income recognised as earned (as the related goods or services are provided) under contract.
Expenditure
Liabilities are recognised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to the expenditure. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category.
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.
Support costs
Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, for example, allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.
