Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 May 2020

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 May 2020. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES Objectives and aims

The Foundation has the following objectives:

  1. To promote community participation in sport and recreation by provision of services and facilities to improve people's health.

  2. To further or benefit people without distinction of sex, sexual orientation, race or of political, religious or other opinions by associating together the people and organisations in a common effort to advance education and to provide facilities, in the interests of social welfare, for recreation and leisure time occupation with the objective of improving the conditions of life of those people.

  3. For the public benefit to promote education (including social and physical training) of people in such ways as the charity sees fit.

  4. To promote social inclusion for the public benefit by preventing people from becoming socially excluded, relieving the needs of those people who are socially excluded and assisting them to integrate into society. For clarity, 'socially excluded' means being excluded from society, or part of society, as a result of being a member of a socially and economically deprived community.

  5. To promote equality and diversity for the public benefit by promoting activities to foster understanding between peoples of diverse backgrounds.

The aims of the Foundation are entirely consistent with the objectives described above.

Significant activities

The Foundation has established and is assisting in running an education and training support facility in Loughborough. It has also secured grants to deliver community basketball coaching as part of its educational and social inclusion programs.

The Foundation is required to produce consolidated financial statements for its Group, which includes the Foundation, together with its wholly owned subsidiary, Leicester Community Sports Arena Limited ( LCSAL) (Company Number 09153152) which itself built, owns and operates a multi-sports community arena in Leicester. LCSAL trades and operates separately to the Foundation, with differing governance and directors, and is establishing itself, partly as a commercial business, with a mixture of community, charitable, educational and commercial activities. The activities of the Foundation are independent of LCSAL, and it does not face any commercial risk from its trading, albeit the arena does provide support to the activities of the Foundation. The future trading position of LCSAL is anticipated to make a positive contribution to the Foundation in the longer term.

Public benefit

The activities undertaken during the year, as described above, demonstrate how the charity has met the public benefit requirements.

The trustees confirm that they have complied with the requirements of section 4 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission.

FINANCIAL REVIEW Financial review

The trustees are satisfied with the financial position of the charity as shown in the attached financial statements.

Reserves policy

The Foundation's policy on reserves is that sufficient reserves should be maintained to cover at least three months fixed operating costs.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Leicester Riders Foundation and its subsidiary

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Leicester Riders Foundation ("the Company") for the year ended 31 May 2020.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (who are also the directors of the company 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 for this year 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.

Independent examiner's statement

The company's gross income exceeded £250,000 and I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that:

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.

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Freehold property - 1% on cost Fixtures and fittings - 15% on reducing balance Motor vehicles - 25% on cost Computer equipment - 33% on cost

Stocks

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.
