I have examined another set of books, accounts, receipts, and income/expenditure for the period
2020 - 2021 as presented by Shap Community Enterprise. As usual the task is made easy by the
carefully kept and well-presented records through which paper trails are easy to follow for each
week of the year. Both activities, the charity shop/pop-up shop and Monday lunches, have
naturally suffered interruption during 2020 and so the task was even easier than normal. I have
done a number of paper trails for weeks selected at random and on no occasion have I found
discrepancies.
Overall the accounts summary shows a strong position with substantial grant pay-outs to several
local activities ranging from the School to Church and Youth organisations. An operating profit
of £20,477 has enabled total grants of £5,864 to be paid during the year and a small sum to be
added to the reserves whilst holding monies for agreed grants the work for which has been
interrupted.
The increased year end bank balance (£37,877) reflects an income stream from Grants for rate
relief and Rent Holiday made possible by the Government support during the Covid crisis and it
is good to see the efficient and effective way these sources were tapped into by the Enterprise.
This compensated for the severe drop in operating receipts as the income generating activities
were only able to operate for less than half a year. Many groups and societies in Shap and
surrounding area are benefitting from this well run enterprise as the landmark of £IOO,000 in
grants made during its existence was passed in the year under review, testifies to.
A full collection of invoices was available and checked against the Bank Statements. Diligent
recording of all receipts and for petty cash transactions made checking all outlays possible.
Overall the accounts are excellently kept and they are a correct record of the business state of the
enterprise. They clearly show a well-run, well supported charity enterprise.
As a result of the examination I find the accounts to be a true and correct record of the financial
position of Shap Community Enterprise over the period covered.
