TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023.

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 governing document, the Companies Act 2006 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)” (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2016)

Objectives and activities

The objects of the charitable company are to:

The association shall be non-party in politics and non-sectarian in religion.

There has been no change in the policies adopted in furtherance of these objects during the year.

Public benefit

The trustees are mindful of the requirements for meeting the public benefit test. The establishment of the community centre and its maintenance and management provides access for the local community to a range of benefits including education, social welfare and recreation to improve the lives of that community. It is felt this satisfies such criteria.

The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.

Voluntary assistance

Voluntary assistance was provided throughout the year. Such assistance has been essential to the running of the charity particularly in fulfilling the objects of the charity.

No financial value has been placed on the services of volunteers as it is considered this value would be too hard to quantify.

Achievements and performance

MOORDOWN COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

2023 Accounts Chairman’s Report

Following the impact of the pandemic room hire picked up throughout 2023 bringing well needed revenue to the Centre. Revenue for room hire increased by 69% from the year 2022 and income from the café also increased by approximately 68%. We saw a number of new classes start and thrive including Children’s keyboard classes, dance classes, singing groups and NHS “Steps to Wellbeing” classes and speech therapy programmes.

Fuel costs continued to be high throughout the first half of the year, gas & electricity costs for January to April 2023 amounted to almost £11,000. Whilst staff, volunteers and users did all they could to keep costs down, turning off lights, turning down radiators etc one of the reasons for the high level of consumption was due to the fact that the new boiler controls had not been fitted. This was completed in April / May 2023. The boiler is now largely controlled remotely, to ensure optimum energy efficiency.

Due to rising energy costs and an increase in the minimum wage, room hire & café prices were increased in September 2023. Room hire was increased by 50p an hour and the hall by £1 an hour. A card reader was purchased to ensure that more users were able to purchase goods and pay for services at the Centre & a digital diary was introduced to improve the bookings procedure.

Following the National Lottery Funding for the washrooms, a full evaluation of the Centre had to be completed including a survey which was given to Volunteers, Hirers and Users. We received over one hundred responses, and lots of excellent feedback indicating that the Centre is valued by the local Community as a warm, friendly space for people to use to learn new skills and meet up with friends & make new ones.

Several fundraising events were held in 2023 including a “Big Lunch” for the Coronation in May, a MacMillan Coffee morning in September, the Craft Fair in October and a Christmas Party in December which was also a celebration of our 25th Anniversary. These events were well supported by users of the Centre and enjoyed by those who came along.

Looking to the future, the Centre is behind on its responsibility to carry out its regular rolling redecoration plans. We hope that funding will be secured and some of this work will be completed in the years 2024/2025. A proposal is underway to replace the carpets in the café, reception area & corridors & we are looking at ways to renovate the café at little cost to the Centre.

I would also like to take this opportunity to say thank you to Amanda, the Staff, and our lovely Volunteers for their continued hard work and support over the year.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

Financial review

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 month’s expenditure. The trustees considers that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will beable to continue the charity’s current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. This level of reserves has been maintained throughout the year.

Free reserves, those reserves not tied up in fixed assets, designated reserves and restricted reserves are maintained for ongoing refurbishment. Due to increasing costs commensurate with activities and legislation, free reserves are held to meet potential risks.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

1 Accounting policies

Charity information

Moordown Community Association is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 21 Coronation Avenue, Bournemouth, Dorset, BH9 1TW, England.

1.1 Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006 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)” (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2016). 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 applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.

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 pound.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2 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.

1.3 Incoming resources

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.

MOORDOWN COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

1.4 Resources expended

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 insettlement 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.

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

1.5 Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

Leasehold land and buildings 25% on reducing balance
Fixtures and ftngs 25% on reducing balance
Computers 25% on reducing balance

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.

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.

1.8 Retirement benefits

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.

1.9 Debtors

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

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

1.10 Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any discounts due.

1.11 Donated services and facilites

Donated services or facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. On receipt, donated services and facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.

The time of volunteers is not recognised, refer to the trustees' annual report for more information about their contribution.

The charity has a close working relationship with Bournemouth Borough Council, which has provided grant funding and donations for the furtherance of the charity's objects in years previous to the CIO.

The charity pays a peppercorn rent to the Council for the premises. As this amount is not material to the financial statements, no separate disclosure of the operating lease has been made.

Users of the community centre have where necessary installed their own equipment at the premises for their required activity only. Such equipment is excluded from the financial statements, as the assets have not been donated. The charity trustees do not act as custodian trustees nor do they have responsibility for such assets.
