Public benefit

The Foundation carries out its objectives by providing a wide range of football related projects and initiatives planned to cover the key areas of school sports participation, social inclusion, health and disability and education. These areas of activities have been identified as key in using the power of football to make a difference, inspire beliefs and change cultures.

The Foundation works closely with the English Football League Trust and Premier League Charitable Fund to ensure that activities and projects continue and receives funding from the English Football League Trust and Premier League Charitable Fund for its core activities.

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.

Use of volunteers

The Foundation continues to utilise volunteers in a range of setting, supporting the execution of the programmes, which deliver our outcomes. We use volunteers in our older people programmes and community meal activities.

We provide work placement opportunities across our programmes to school students, interns and college students.

We provide football participation opportunities to women and girls and the coaching positions are supported by a group of volunteers.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

Over the last 12 months we have supported over 50,000 individuals, where we reached over 450,000 meals in total in our extensive work to reach out to the community as we came out of the pandemic. Our youngest participant was 2 and our oldest was 93 years of age.

We ran 23 unique community projects, with a record of over 3,500 participants taking part in our school holiday activities. We saw 51 young people take part in National Citizen Service projects and 114 young people mentored via the Football Mentoring / Twinning programme.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE (Continued)

We continued to deliver some activities online, for those who were still unable to come out due to the pandemic. There were over 100 sessions delivered online including quizzes, dance lessons and “at home” activities and practices.

We introduced 21 new participants to our weight loss programme and created a new health and wellbeing department to do further health activities.

We provided over 4,000 Christmas presents and hampers to families in Stoke-on-Trent who were most in need.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

The results for the year are shown in the Statement of Financial Activities.

Net income for the year was £11,775 (2021: £21,570), consisting of restricted net income of £37,566 (2021: net expenditure of £(30,677)) and unrestricted net expenditure of £(25,791) (2021: net income of £52,247). Retained funds at the year end were £114,636 (2021: £102,861), consisting of restricted funds of £44,566 (2021: £7,000) and unrestricted funds of £70,070 (2021: £95,861).

The Balance Sheet shows that at 30 June 2022 the total funds of the Charity were £114,636 (2021: £102,861). This is made up of current assets of £210,631 (2021: £119,884) and current liabilities of £95,995 (2021: £17,023).

Reserves policy

The Trustees have examined the Foundation's requirement for reserves in light of the main risks to the organisation and the possible reduction in funding.

It has established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets held by the charity should be between 3 months of the expenditure. The current level of reserves is shown on the Balance Sheet.

The reserves are required to meet working capital requirements including the salary commitments of the Foundation and the Trustees are confident that at this level they would be able to continue the current activities in the event of a significant drop in funding and the Trustees will endeavour to increase reserves accordingly.

FUTURE PLANS

The Foundation plans to expand and develop its provision further under four strategic themes of community engagement, sport, health and education. This will see more programmes developed as a result of seeking new and diverse income streams from public, private and third sector.

We will continue to invest into our staff and volunteers to support them to develop their areas of work and programmes.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND AREAS OF JUDGEMENT

Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on a number of factors including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Port Vale Football Club Foundation STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES

The Trustees (who are also the Directors of Port Vale Football Club Foundation for the purposes of company law) 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).

Company 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 charitable company 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:

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF PORT VALE FOOTBALL CLUB FOUNDATION

I report to the Trustees on my examination of the accounts of Port Vale Football Club Foundation (‘the company’) for the year ended 30 June 2022, which are set out on pages 8 to 19.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the Trustees of the company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (‘the 2006 Act’).

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination I report in respect of my examination of your charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145 (5)(b) of the 2011 Act.

An independent examination does not involve gathering all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently does not cover all the matters that an auditor considers in giving their opinion on the accounts. The planning and conduct of an audit goes beyond the limited assurance that an independent examination can provide. Consequently, I express no opinion as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and my report is limited to those specific matters set out in the independent examiner’s statement.

Independent examiner’s statement

Since the company’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of The Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  2. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or

  3. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Ireland (FRS 102).

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

Charity Status

The charity is limited by guarantee, incorporated in England, and consequently does not have share capital. Each of the Trustees is liable to contribute an amount not exceeding £10 towards the assets of the charity in the event of liquidation.

The address of its registered office is:

Port Vale Foundation Trust

Hamil Road Burslem Stoke-on-Trent Staffordshire ST6 1AW

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Key Accounting Estimates

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently. applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.

Basis of Preparation

Port Vale Football Club Foundation 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. The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

Statement of Compliance

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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 (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). They also comply with the Companies Act 2006 and Charities Act 2011.

Going Concern

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

The Trustees assess whether the use of going concern is appropriate i.e. whether there are any material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The Trustees make this assessment in respect of a period of one year from the date of approval of the financial statements.

Income and Endowments

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 the income receivable can be measured reliably.

Donations and Legacies

Donations are recognised when the charity has been notified in writing of both the amount and settlement date. In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of performance by the charity before the charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the charity and it is probable that these conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period.

Page 11

Port Vale Football Club Foundation NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ended 30 June 2022

UNAUDITED

Grants Receivable

Grants are recognised when the charity has an entitlement to the finds 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.

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. are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis.

Charitable Activities

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.

Governance Costs

These include the costs attributable to the charity's compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements, including audit, strategic management and Trustees’ meetings and reimbursed expenses.

Government Grants

Government grants are recognised based on the accrual model and are measured at the fair value of the asset received or receivable. Grants are classified as relating either to revenue or to assets. Grants relating to revenue are recognised in income over the period in which the related costs are recognised. Grants relating to assets are recognised over the expected useful life of the asset. Where part of a grant relating to an asset is deferred, it is recognised as deferred income.

Taxation

The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part Il of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.

Trade Debtors

Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business.

Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the charity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.

Page 12

Port Vale Football Club Foundation NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ended 30 June 2022

UNAUDITED

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

Trade Creditors

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the charity does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as noncurrent liabilities.

Trade creditors are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Fund Structure

Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the Trustees discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity.

Restricted income funds are those donated for use in a particular area or for specific purposes, the use of which is restricted to that area or purpose.

Financial Instruments

Classification

Financial assets and financial liabilities are recognised when the charity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial liabilities and equity instruments are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. An equity instrument is any contract that evidences a residual interest in the assets of the charity after deducting all of its liabilities.

Recognition and measurement

All financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at transaction price (including transaction costs), except for those financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss, which are initially measured at fair value (which is normally the transaction price excluding transaction costs), unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction. If an arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, the financial asset or financial liability is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are only offset in the statement of financial position when, and only when there exists a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and the charity intends either to settle on a net basis, or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Financial assets are derecognised when and only when a) the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or are settled, b) the charity transfers to another party substantially all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset, or c) the charity, despite having retained some, but not all, significant risks and rewards of ownership, has transferred control of the asset to another party.

Financial liabilities are derecognised only when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires.
