Trustees’ Annual Report

Year Ended 30 June 2023

Main activities undertaken to further the Charity’s purposes for public benefit

Following the impact of Covid and in light of the current economic circumstances, there has been an encouraging though slow recovery in audience participation and engagement.

Overall, there was a steady return of audience numbers with an increase in attendance figures over the previous year. Film attracted just over 1000 more attendances and live performances attracted 2000 more attendances. This is an encouraging trend, especially in light of the current economic situation.

Volunteers

During this year 35 volunteers have supported pavilions Teignmouth in a variety of roles. The trustees recognise and value their efforts without which the centre could not operate.

Financial Review

Going Concern

There has been a steady and encouraging return of income levels although they have not yet fully recovered to pre- Covid levels. In 2021/22 unrestricted reserves were £101,524 and have decreased to £95,449. This is sufficient to cover repairs and other expenditure required such as replacement and updating of equipment and unexpected disruption. Although the trustees believe that the ideal level of reserves would be £120,000 they are confident that recent recovery suggests this will be achieved in the near future. Also, current funds are sufficient to meet current needs.

The board is also reassured by a loan facility of £50,000 made available by Teignbridge District Council to be drawn down if necessary.

For this reason The Board continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing financial statements.

Financial Review

The venue derived income from its activities including rental and hire income, ticket sales, advertising and sundry sales. It also received a grant of £316 from Teignbridge District Council and a £200 Co-op grant. Donation income was £508. Total income of £453,923 was recorded in the year together with total expenditure of £460,198, resulting in a deficit of £6,275 reducing total reserves at the year end.

Reserves Policy

Reserves are needed to bridge the gap between spending and receiving of income. It must also cover unplanned repairs and other expenditure due to unexpected disruption. Wear and tear and technical obsolescence will also lead to a need to replace equipment and infrastructure. Although the trustees believe that the ideal level of reserves would be £120,000 they are confident that recent recovery

suggests this will be achieved in the near future. Also, current funds are sufficient to meet current needs.

The board is also reassured by a loan facility of £50,000 made available by Teignbridge District Council to be drawn down if necessary.

Future plans

The trustees are mindful of the challenges due to increasing energy costs and tightening household incomes that impact both the venue and our audiences. However, this year has shown a recovery and we will continue to build on this. Through programming and marketing the aim is to continue to rebuild the confidence of our audiences and users by providing an exciting range of activities and events in an attractive and safe environment.

Structure, Governance and Management

The charity (CIO)was incorporated on12 June 2015 and commenced trading on that date. It is not part of any wider group structure.

The organisation is governed by its Constitution last amended 10th June 2015 which establish its objects and powers.

Trustees must be appointed for a term of three years by a resolution passed at a properly convened meeting of the charity trustees. A charity trustee who has served for three consecutive terms may not be reappointed for a fourth consecutive term but may be reappointed after an interval of at least one year.

Selection and Appointment of Trustees

Upon their first appointment each new trustee is provided with the following information:

In addition, potential trustees are invited to attend trustee meetings prior to their appointment as trustee. Trustees receive no payment.

Independent Examiner’s Report

Year Ended 30 June 2023

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Pavilions Teignmouth for the year ended 30 June 2023.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the Charity 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 2011 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

Since the charity’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 Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, 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 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 Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  2. 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.

Notes to the Financial Statements

Year Ended 30 June 2023

1. Accounting policies

(a) General information

Pavilions Teignmouth is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation with its Constitution being the governing document.

The charity is registered in England and Wales and the registered office is Pavilions Teignmouth, The Den, Teignmouth, Devon, TQ14 8BD.

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.

These financial statements cover the individual charity and not the group.

The functional currency of Pavilions Teignmouth is considered to be pounds sterling because it is the currency of the primary economic environment in which the charity operates. The financial statements have been prepared to give a ‘true and fair’ view and have departed from the Charities Regulations 2008.

(b) Basis of preparation

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 Charities SORP (FRS102) and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102).

Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s).

(c) Fund Accounting

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use as the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the charity for particular purposes.

(d) 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.

(e) Government grants

Grant income is accounted for when received.

(f) Expenditure recognition

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

Support costs represent operational and administrative costs of the charity which do not relate directly to individual operations.

Governance costs are incurred in connection with compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements.

(g) Volunteers

The contribution received from volunteers is not valued within the accounts.

(h) Going concern

There has been a steady and encouraging return of income levels although they have not yet fully recovered to pre- Covid levels. In 2021/22 unrestricted reserves were £101,524 and have decreased to £95,449. This is sufficient to cover repairs and other expenditure required such as replacement and updating of equipment and unexpected disruption. Although the trustees believe that the ideal level of reserves would be £120,000 they are confident that recent recovery suggests this will be achieved in the near future. Also, current funds are sufficient to meet current needs.

The board is also reassured by a loan facility of £50,000 made available by Teignbridge District Council to be drawn down if necessary.

For this reason The Board continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing financial statements.

(i) Tangible Fixed Assets and depreciation

Tangible fixed assets are carried at cost, net of depreciation and any provision for impairment. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets over their expected useful lives on the following bases:

Fixtures and fittings - 5 years Office equipment - 4 years

(j) Investments

Investment in the charity’s subsidiary undertaking is stated at cost, less any provision for impairment in value.

(k) Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

(l) 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.

(m) Liabilities and provisions

Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably. Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.

(n) Financial Instruments
