Activities and Achiev8mants At the start of the financial year our Pre-school was at full capacity. We had some great news that we had been considered for a new building. I worked hard in bidding and trying to get the new premises, with the support of the local school, Dartey Dale Primary School. In June we got the news thatwe had got the new premises, thatwas once occupied by Mencap. In June we had the Police come and visit and the child￿n enjoyed sitting in the police care. We also followed on with road safety and leaming to cross the road safely. Y￿e also purchased sorTE caterpillars, the children enjoyed watching them change into butterfiies. The children had transitions to school which was very positive and we held our graduation for our school leaver5. In August Ive started to move premises. Lots of volunteers helped us to move and set up our new building ready for September. The new building is a lot bigger than our previous setting and we have windows and a lovely bright room. Our capacty previously was 20, with the new premises we were able to increase our numbers, which was much needed in the area. to take up to 40 children a day. In September we opened our new Pre-school. Sarah. the deputy manager, returned from maternity leave. In December we had our Christmas paty where Santa visited and the children received a present. We recruited additional staff due to our numbers increasing. In March we were running at full capacity and our first Iwo terms in the new setting had made a positive impact to our Pre-school. We started to do Forest Schools with the children, as we are now on the school premises we are very lucky to be able to share some facilities with the school.

The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under Section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is required. Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to an audit and is eligible for independent exarnination, it is my responsibility to: examine the accounts under Section 145 of the 2011 Act to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under Section 145(5){b) of the 2011 Act)., and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention Basis of indepondent examlner's report My examination was carried out in accordance with General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charty and a comparison of the accounts presentsd with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items of 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 statements below. Independent examiner's statement In connection with my examination, no matter has come to our attention: which gives us reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements i. to keep accounting records in accordan￿ with section 130 of the Charities Act. and ii. to prepare accounts which accord wtth the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Act and the principles of the statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities 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 Eleanor Rice ACMA FMAAT CGMA Acer Business Services Ltd 12 Broadwalk Darley Dale Derbyshire DE42 16 December 2024 DARLEY DALE PRESCHOOL AND NURSERY ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 TOTAL FUNDS 2024 TOTAL FUNDS 2023 Restricted Fund5 Unrestricted Funds RECEIPTS Derbyshire County Council- funded places Fees and subscriptions Grants HMRC refund 115139 28368 6200 115139 28368 6200 57974 19527 149707 149707 77502 PAYMENTS Staff Costs Refreshments and fjonsumables Equipment Rent Premises Costs (including utilities) Insurance Chlldren's Activities Administrative Expenses Repairs and Maintenance Bookkeeping and Accounts Office Expenses Professional Fees Advertising & Recruitment Staff Training 91,116 3,688 3,448 17,044 5,954 982 3,218 91,116 3,688 3,448 17,044 5.954 982 3,218 55411 464 2152 9023 153 954 1,866 1,334 1,570 4,127 844 804 1,866 1,334 1,570 4,127 844 804 1500 189 337 170 135,995 135,995 70353 {Deficit)/Surplus for the year Transfer between funds Funds brou8ht forward 13,712 13,712 7149 62.124 62,124 54975 Funds carried forward 75,836 75,836 62124 2023 rA5H FUNDS Bank Cesh In Hand 712% 350 57542 57542 OTHER MONErARY￿EFS INVE5fMENfissETS ASSETS REfAINED FOftCHARrtYsowpJ USE fttrrthreand CornpwerEqtslpma)t 451 451 Ltr4BKmES Aca￿15 PAYEC¥Editor Penslw fxedtler 1122 236 234 ds Tr by zf a ROBO Tiuiie• rlty ￿. 1168827
