REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES for the Year Ended 31 March 2023
The Trustees of the Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2023.
On the 1st November 2021 the sister Charity 'Broad Plain Working with Young People' was absorbed into this Charity and now therefore operates the Youth Club evening activities previously operated by that Charity.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
The objectives of the CIO are as set out in its governance document to advance in life and help and educate people aged up to and including the age of 25 years by providing such people access to a range of learning opportunities and challenging experiences (including leisure time activities) which promotes their personal educational and social development.
The incorporation of 'Broad Plain Working with Young People' extends these activities to include an evening youth club offering sporting and community activities and camps to a wider range of young people.
The Charity also continues to provide Fitness Activities for Vulnerable Adults and Elderly Disabled People.
Significant activities
The significant activities are acting as an alternative leaning resource providing a service to young people who are referred to the Charity from local schools which have had to exclude these young people from main stream education. The Charity, in conjunction with the schools, give respite education and specialist activities as a platform to re-engage and re-enthuse these young people.
The main achievements of the Charity during the year were again the positive outcome in respect of the above activities for all the young people with whom we engaged.Unfortunately due to Government cut backs in school funding there has been a dramatic reduction in the number of pupils for the alternative learning operation and in fact after the year end this was considered to be no longer viable so has been terminated with a reduction in overheads and redundancies. The Charity has therefore had to look for alternative funding sources in order to continue to provide the facilities for young people to benefit.and there is some concern as to whether the 'Going Concern' basis can be relied upon for the future of the Charity.
The incorporation of 'Broad Plain Working with Young People' has extended the activities to an evening youth club offering more young people the opportunity to socialise whilst undertaking sporting and other activities.
Public benefit
The public benefit arising from these activities was the return of pupils to an education system and bringing them back into main stream education.Unfortunately this is no longer relevant but the Charity continues to support other young people activities.
The trustees have taken the Charity Commission Public Benefit Guidance into account when making decisions relevant to the Charity.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
The Charity is governed by its constitution provided by a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO).
Recruitment and appointment of new trustees
New trustees will be appointed by the existing Board who were appointed by the constitution.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the Year Ended 31 March 2023
1. GOING CONCERN
As set out in the Report of the Trustees the Charity has been forced to close its alternative learning resource after the end of this financial year. This has put a strain on Cash Flow and alternative sources of funding are being sought to enable the Charity to continue its work with young people. There is therefore a concern as to whether the 'Going Concern' basis can be relied upon for the future of the Charity.
2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the CIO, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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 2015)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Expenditure
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.
Fixtures and fittings - 25% on reducing balance Motor vehicles - 25% on reducing balance
Taxation
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
