## **BROMLEY BRIGHTER BEGINNINGS**
## **TRUSTEES' REPORT**
## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2025**_
The Trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 July 2025.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the Charity's Declaration of Trust dated 5th September 2014 (and subsequent amendments), 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 Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)" (effective 1 January 2019).
## **Transition from predecessor charity**
Bromley Brighter Beginnings CIO was incorporated on 23rd November 2024 and began operations on 1st April 2025, following the transfer of assets from its predecessor charity, Bromley Brighter Beginnings (registered charity number 1162113), a charitable trust governed by a Declaration of Trust dated 5th September 2014. The transfer was undertaken in order to adopt a more appropriate legal structure, with the CIO offering greater protection to trustees and improved governance arrangements. The predecessor charity is in the process of being wound up. These accounts reflect the activities and finances of the predecessor charity from 1st August 2024 to 31st March 2025 and the CIO from 1st April 2025 to 31st July 2025.
## **Objectives and activities**
The objects of Bromley Brighter Beginnings CIO are to relieve the pressure of poverty on families with young children in the London Borough of Bromley and surrounding areas in a practical way, by providing them with essential baby, child and household items. The Charity envisions a world in which children are not disadvantaged by growing up in poverty, and where their parents and caregivers do not have to struggle to provide them with the most basic items.
The Charity’s work is guided by its core values of community, inclusivity, dignity, sustainability and wellbeing. Relieving stress, anxiety and depression in parents and caregivers has a positive impact on the early experiences of children, gives those children a better start in life and helps families recover more quickly from financial crisis.
The Charity operates across the London Borough of Bromley, working with professional referrers including health visitors, social workers and other support agencies to identify and assist families most in need.
## _Public benefit_
The Trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the Charity should undertake.
## **Achievements and performance**
## _Significant activities and achievements against objectives_
During the period, the Charity continued to deliver its full range of services to families across the borough. Despite the continuing cost of living crisis, which disproportionately affects low-income families, the Charity supported over 1,000 families across the London Borough of Bromley during the 2024/25 financial year, with a total of 1,905 children receiving help from one of its services. The highest levels of need were seen in the Anerley and Penge, Orpington and Petts Wood, and Bromley town areas.
The Charity fulfilled over 300 general referrals during the year, providing essentials such as nappies, wipes, buggies, cot beds and children’s clothing to families in need. The most frequently requested items were pre-loved clothing, followed by nappies, baby wipes, buggies and cots or cot beds. The Charity also provided newborn packs offering essentials for a baby’s first month, together with items to support new mothers. These packs help reduce stress and support better mental health at a crucial time for families already under financial strain.

## **BROMLEY BRIGHTER BEGINNINGS**
## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2025**_
In addition to its general support, the Charity completed the following during the year:
- 99 referrals under the Bed for Every Child project, providing beds and bedding to children without adequate sleeping arrangements.
- 81 referrals under the Healthy Homes for Every Child project, supplying white goods including cookers, fridges and washing machines through its trusted supplier, Budget Appliances.
- 243 referrals for school uniform support, providing pre-loved primary uniforms, new secondary school uniform items, school shoes and other essentials such as water bottles, stationery and school bags.
- 50 newborn packs distributed to families with new babies.
- 726 children supported through the Christmas in a Bag project, with bags carefully packed with a mix of essential and treat items for every member of the household, tailored to reflect different ages, cultures, faiths, disabilities and family structures.
The Trustees are satisfied that the Charity’s activities continue to deliver significant public benefit, in line with its charitable objects.
## **Financial review**
Total income for the period was £267,925 and total expenditure was £288,407, resulting in a net deficit of £20,482 for the period. Closing reserves at 31 July 2025 were £72,893, reflecting the assets transferred from the predecessor charity together with the results of the period.
The Charity was grateful to receive funding support from a number of grant-making trusts and foundations during the year, including the National Lottery, City Bridge Foundation, Global Make Some Noise, Save The Children, Beacon Lodge, MFS International, GBE Services, Hiscox and the Doughty Family, as well as donations from a wide range of local individuals, businesses, schools, churches and community groups.
It is the policy of the Charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to between three and six months’ expenditure. The Trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the Charity’s current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. The Trustees confirm that this level of reserves has been maintained throughout the period.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT**
## **TO THE TRUSTEES OF BROMLEY BRIGHTER BEGINNINGS**
I report to the Trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Bromley Brighter Beginnings (the Charity) for the year ended 31 July 2025.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the Trustees of the Charity you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.
I report in respect of my examination of the Charity’s financial statements carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act 2011.
## **Independent examiner's statement**
Since the Charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000, the independent examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountancts in England and Wales (ICAEW), which is one of the listed bodies.
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 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 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 matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
- 1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity as required by section 130 of the Charities Act 2011.
- 2 the financial statements do not accord with those records; or
- 3 the financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of financial statements set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the financial statements 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 financial statements to be reached.

## **BROMLEY BRIGHTER BEGINNINGS**
## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2025**_
## **1 Accounting policies**
## **Charity information**
Bromley Brighter Beginnings is a registered charity in England and Wales (charity number 1210626).
## **1.1 Basis of preparation**
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charity's governing document, the Charities Act 2011, and the Charities SORP "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). The Charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The Charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.
The financial statements 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 the Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying FRS 102 rather than the version of the Statement of Recommended Practice which is referred to in the Regulations but which has since been withdrawn.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the Charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
## **1.2 Going concern**
At the time of approving the financial statements, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
## **1.3 Charitable funds**
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the Charity.
## **1.4 Income**
Income is recognised when the Charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the Charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the Charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

## **BROMLEY BRIGHTER BEGINNINGS**
## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2025**_
## **1 Accounting policies**
## **(Continued)**
## **1.5 Expenditure**
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, 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 classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of contracted hours, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
## **1.6 Cash and cash equivalents**
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.
## **1.7 Financial instruments**
The Charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the Charity's balance sheet when the Charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
## **1.8 Employee benefits**
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.
Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the Charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
## **1.9 Retirement benefits**
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.
