Trustees' report continued

Objectives and activities

The Board of Trustees has ensured through Covid-19 Pandemic that the Centre’s doors remained open. We used our lockdowns wisely building the partnerships and have watched our centre grow since our doors opened after the Final Lockdown, Having followed up on our new Partnerships created since 2020 we have sourced funding for the remaining Projects as part of our refurbishment such as our rear car park that were placed on hold since Covid-19 back in 2020 and hope to secure this for next year

We are advertising our new provisions which include our New OAP Fitness sessions set to start once Lockdowns end and we’re able to operate fully.

We say goodbye to Golden Belt and are planning our New Cardio room, also seeking groups to use the room. There is much scope to generate essential income for the Charity

As per our Business Plan - Parr Sports is concentrating on completing the refurbishment as soon as possible and the board of trustees has set an independent panel to interview our Paid employee roles.

There are also plans to extend the centres profile and awareness through avenues such as St. Helens business awards next year.

The Paid staff roles have been discussed and the board decided it would be more productive to have

Project Manager rather than a Centre Manager
Activities Manager
Part time Administrative Assistant rather than a Lead Admin / Community liaison
Catering Manager.

All running costs have been met, with thanks to Power to change, Sport England and St. Helens Covid funding. Any monies remaining will be used to build on the Charities activities for our community.

The Trustees have used this year to work with our new partnerships, our Next step is to create a new Youth Committee, reduce crime in our community and continue to work on our 5-year business plan.

The Plan includes new provisions for the community especially those who’s well-being has suffered, especially due to the impact of Covid-19.

With many plans for activities for OAP’s and those with neurological issues, including an AllInclusive Hub.

The Café trade has increased tremendously and is now the largest income for the Centre and the Board is working on the new menus for next year.

During lockdown we continued to open for Free IT- for those with no internet.

Our Foodbank and Community Shop.

The Education for NEET youths through MPH has also continued

Our Covid-19 Risk assessment. Will be reviewed at our AGM with all other policies.

The Charity took advantage of the Banking switch with a £1500. Switch incentive. It did not run smoothly, and did leave the Charity with bank charges, however did eventually get resolved by both Banks in question the Charges were reimbursed and the incentive was awarded.

Future Plans

The Committee will continue to seek additional funding to refurbish the rest of the Centre and purchase the necessary equipment to ensure for our Cardio Room Project for the safety of all our users.

Contribution of volunteers

The Trustees and Volunteers continue to work hard and contribute over 300 hours per week to the centre providing coaching, advice, help and a social hub for all.

THE PARR SPORTS AND COMMUNITY CENTRE

Independent examiner's report on the accounts of THE PARR SPORTS AND COMMUNITY CENTRE for the year ending 31 March 2022

I report on the accounts of the charity set out on pages 6 to 9

Respective responsibilities of the Management Committee and the examiner

As the charity's trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts; you consider that the audit requirement of section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) does not apply and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to:

q examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act;

q to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioner under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act: and

q to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of Independent examiner's report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent examiner's statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:

1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the requirements:

q to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Act; and

q to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act have not been met; or

2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
