The charitable objectives are:
The promotion, for the benefit, of the public, of urban regeneration in the are of Leigh bounded by Twist lane, Atherleigh Way, Kirkall Lane and Leigh Road/Market Street/King Street by the following means:

-
Financial support for primary age children to attend the Sacred Heart Summer School - a learning week for local children during the summer holidays designed to minimise the effects of the 'Summer Dip'. Twenty children from the area who wouldn't ordinarily qualify for the scheme are sponsored and enjoy the educational and social benefits of the scheme.

The distribution of funds for local projects which serve to provide improvements to the area, such as the environmental improvements to the Selwyn Street backs or the refurbishment of the KIngsleigh Community Centre.

LEIGH NEIGHBOURS PROJECT TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31 2022
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
The fundamental change this year was the closure of the community hub at 14 Walmesley Road. Serious defects were identified, making the building unsafe to use, and so the lease with the landlord, Wigan Council, was terminated by mutual agreement in September 2021.
Lockdown restrictions began to ease during the year, and we were slowly able to recommence face to face delivery. Leigh Neighbours Project continued to deliver against its Big Local Community Plan:
Community Spirit
-
Official opening of the Our Art Neighbourhood Wall of Fame, showcasing artwork produced by local children to celebrate notable people from Leigh
-
Continuation of the Butterfly Project, using the butterfly as a symbol of hope, to represent residents cocooned in their houses during lockdown, and emerging from their chrysalis as spring arrived and restrictions were lifted.
-
A resident led Scarecrow festival, designed to increase the sense of community cohesion and wellbeing. Local schools, organisations and residents participated.
-
Hosted a Halloween party at the community garden
-
Design and delivery of online craft activities for children
Crime and Community Safety
- Provided support to the Peace Foundation staff working in the Leigh Neighbours area, including hosting information gathering workshops
Education, employment and training
-
Financial support provided for local pupils to attend the Sacred Heart Primary School Summer School
-
Held summer holiday and half term holiday school craft clubs
Environment
-
Ongoing maintenance of the community garden
-
Hanging Basket workshops delivered for residents and for local schools which gave over 100 children experience of planting.
Financial Matters:
-
Provided financial support for local foodbanks and schools at Christmas
-
Provided funding through the ‘Resident’s Fund’ initiative
Health
-
The Bike Library provided bikes for loan to local adults and children – part of the activation activities around the active travel neighbourhood plans
-
Provided in person and financial support to Sacred Heart Primary School walking group initiative
Housing
-
The renovation of the two terraced houses on Selwyn Street was completed
-
Commenced negotiations with Wigan Ethical Lettings Agency to lease the properties to Wigan Council

Traffic & Transport
- Held Dr Bike workshop, a bike safety and repair workshop where people of all ages had their bikes repaired and received safety advice, Hi-Viz jackets, lights and other safety equipment. Overall, 25 bikes serviced / repaired.

LEIGH NEIGHBOURS PROJECT TRUSTEES’ ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31 2022
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Overview
The charity had a surplus, before transfers, on unrestricted funds of £2,818 for the year, as the charity continues to be able to add to its unrestricted funds to ensure that there are funds available to enable it to operate beyond the life of the current funding regime.
During the year the charity has completed the refurbishment of the two properties purchased the previous year. The purchase and refurbishment are funded by the lottery grant, and a transfer has been made from restricted to unrestricted funds equal to the costs incurred in the year. The charity is in the process of making arrangements to let the properties at an affordable rent.
Reserves
Because of the nature of the lottery grant funding which the charity receives it doesn't have a formal reserves' policy - because unspent monies at the end of a funding cycle have to be returned. The charity has established a 'Legacy Fund' which contains funds which have been generated. This fund will be used once the lottery grant fund has been exhausted.
Free reserves, unrestricted funds not invested in fixed assets or otherwise designated, stood at £100,333 at the year end.
Going concern
The trustees have no concerns about the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern as it continues to enjoy the benefit of the lottery funding and has established the legacy fund.
FUTURE PLANS
The new two-year Big Local Plan was formally approved in April 2022. Trustees will be focused on delivery on the plan, which includes the following priorities:
-
Housing – continuing the work that has been started, such as the appointment by the Council of a Tenant’s Champion, working with the Council and others to raise the standard of housing in the area. Leasing of Selwyn Street properties to provide affordable housing.
-
Physical and Mental Health – working with partner organisations, including local schools and Andy’s Man Club, to support the physical and mental health of residents. Delivery of a Mental Health Pilot Project. Ongoing support of local walking groups. Provision of First Aid Courses for local residents.
-
Young People and Education – to provide support for young people both in formal education settings and as residents including funding for specialist support workers in local primary schools.
-
Active Travel – encouraging local people to walk and cycle more as one part of the mental and physical health wellbeing jigsaw. Engagement with the Local Authority around active travel and the introduction of an Active Travel Neighbourhood
-
Partnerships which are strong and productive – working with the many partners that the project has now to support local residents, to improve relations and to make the area a better place to live
-
External funding – sourcing external grants and sponsorship which will help deliver the project outcomes through the project activities
Trustees are also working on sustainability plans for after the end of Big Local Funding

TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES IN RELATION TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Charity law 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, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company 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 (FRS 102) (second edition – October 2019);
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
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 adequate 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. They 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.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE LEIGH NEIGHBOURS PROJECT FOR THE YEAR ENDED MARCH 31 2022
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended March 31 2022 which are set out on pages 7 to 15.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity’s trustees 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 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
Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared financial statements in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK (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 now been withdrawn.
I understand that this has been done in order for financial statements to provide a true and fair view in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.
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:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
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.

1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared: under the historic cost convention; in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice – Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) effective January 1 2019 (second edition – October 2019); FRS102; and the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Practice.
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) issued on 16 July 2014 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS102.
The accounts are prepared in £ sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity.
Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Income recognition
All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably. The following applies to particular types of income:
Grants , whether of a capital or revenue nature, are recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions have been met and it is probable that the income will be received.
Donations from individuals and other bodies (not being of the nature of a grant) are recognised when receivable.
Deferred income
Income is only deferred and included in creditors when:
-
The income relates to a future accounting period
-
A sales invoice has been raised ahead of the work being carried out and there is no contractual entitlement to the income until the work has been done
-
Not all the terms and conditions of the grant have been met, including the incurring of expenditure and the grant conditions are such that unspent grant must be refunded
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 the settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:
Costs of raising funds
including those associated with fundraising activities, managing investments and commercial trading by the subsidiary company.
Charitable activities costs of undertaking the work of the charity.
The charity is not registered for VAT and cannot recover any input tax charged. Costs are stated inclusive of VAT were charged.
Allocation of support costs
Support costs are those functions which assist the work of the charity either by supporting the delivery of charitable activities or by supporting the generation of funds. The basis of allocations is set out in note 5.

Grants

Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Individual fixed assets costing more than £1,000 are capitalised at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. The charity does not currently have any fixed assets.
Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due and prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid.
Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and 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.
Creditors and provisions
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has 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.
Financial instruments
The charity has only basic financial instruments which are initially recorded at cost, subsequently measured at their settlement value.
