The centre continues to be rented out most evenings and weekends, though one of our regular users has moved into their own space, we are actively looking to replace this regular income, which helps to ensure our financial stability. 

Our Entertainment Committee has again organised a number of outings and events, including social events at Easter, Queen’s Jubilee, Halloween & Christmas. We also held a MacMillan Coffee Morning to raise funds for this worthwhile charity. 

The Community Café continues to provide hot meals & snacks Mon – Thurs cooked & served by our volunteers. All our kitchen staff have up to date training, meaning they are compliant with food regulations and the café was Rated 5. This resource is invaluable for those living alone as it ensures they have access to nutritious food at a reasonable price.

## **Trustees’ Annual Report for the year ended 31[st] March 2023** 

## **Plans for the Future** 

Plans for an extension are still to be on hold. 

To continue to promote our centre through the local media and social media. 

## **Structure, governance and management** 

Trustees, elected at the Annual General Meeting (AGM), will be elected at the AGM on a third basis going forward. Trustees are members of the centre who present themselves as interested to be trustees with a skill set of interest or are approached as outside persons with a skillset which may be helpful to the charity. 

The organisation is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation, incorporated and registered as a charity on 14 September 2016. 

The charity was established under a constitution which established the objects and powers of the charity and its governance. 

The trustees are members of the charity but this entitles them only to voting rights. The trustees have no beneficial interest in the charity. 

All trustees give their time voluntarily and receive no benefits from the charity. The trustees do not claim expenses. 

## **Related parties and relationships with other organisations** 

We work closely together with Tameside MBC. 

## **Remuneration policy for key management personnel** 

The trustees have adopted a model renumeration policy provided by their payroll provider, Action Together. 

## **Risk management** 

The trustees regularly review and assess the risks face by the Charity which fall into the main categories listed below: 

- Governance 

- Operations 

- Finances 

- Environmental and external factors such as public opinion and relationships with key partners 

- Compliance with law and regulation 

The Charity has recruited and retained a board of trustees with an appropriate range of skills and experience with access to specialist support when required, for example using Action Together to manage payroll services, using external legal and accountancy support. In addition, it has recruited experienced and qualified management and support staff. 

The operations of the charity are well managed and meet and enhance the requirements of service and centre users, supported by a number of committed and hard-working volunteers. The trustees have invested in the fabric of the building to enhance user experience and also in equipment to improve the efficiency of its operations. 

The trustees have secured a lease on the centre building with Tameside MBC that will enable them to bid for a wider range of external funding, in addition to maintaining a steady income stream from lettings, sale of lunches and refreshments, membership fees and activities. 

The trustees and volunteers work hard to raise awareness of the opportunities and services offered by the Charity, which is evidenced by the sustained membership. The Charity holds the Queens Award for Voluntary Service. This is the highest award that can be given to volunteer groups in the United Kingdom. The key criteria for successful

nomination is that the group provides a service that meets the needs for people living in the local community and it is supported, recognised and respected by the local community and the people who benefit from it. 

The trustees regularly review legal requirements and regulations relating to the Charity and its operations. 

## **Statement of responsibilities of the trustees** 

The trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the aims and objects and in planning future activities and setting policy for the future. 

The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees’ annual report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

Charity law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently 

- Observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP 

- Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent 

- State whether applicable UK Accounting Standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements 

- Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation 

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial 

statements comply with the Charities Act 2011. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charity’s website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

## Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Grafton Centre Development Trust CIO 

I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2023 set out on pages 8 to 18. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and that an independent examination is needed. 

It is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act, 

- to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and 

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

## **Basis of independent examiner’s statement** 

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 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 the 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. 

## **Other matters** 

Your attention is to drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared the accounts (financial statements) in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has been withdrawn. 

We understand that this has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015. 

## **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: 

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

   - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and 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.

Grafton Centre Development Trust CIO 

Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2023 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

The principal accounting policies adopted, judgments and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows: 

## **a 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 Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued in October 2019 - (Charities SORP (FRS 102), and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). 

Grafton Centre Development Trust CIO meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note. 

The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £ sterling. 

## **b Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis** 

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. 

## **c Income** 

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

Income from government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred. 

Income received in advance of a provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met. 

## **d Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of charity. 

Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose. 

Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the charity’s work or for specific projects being undertaken by the charity.

Grafton Centre Development Trust CIO 

Notes to the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2023 (continued) 

## **e Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT** 

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. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings: 

- Expenditure on charitable activities includes the costs of operating a community centre with diverse, wide-ranging  activities undertaken to further the purposes of the charity ,and their associated support costs. 

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

## **f Operating leases** 

Operating leases are leases in which the title to the assets, and the risks and rewards of ownership, remain with the lessor. Rental charges are charged on a straight line basis over the term of the lease. 

## **g Tangible fixed assets** 

Individual fixed assets costing £100 or more are capitalised at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful economic lives on a straight line basis as follows: 

Leasehold improvements 10% Equipment 25% 

## **h Debtors** 

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

## **i 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 trade discounts due. 

## **j Financial instruments** 

The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

## **k Pensions** 

Employees of the charity are entitled to join a defined contribution ‘money purchase’ scheme. The charity’s contribution is restricted to the contributions disclosed in note 8. Outstanding contributions at the year end were £284 which were paid the following month. 

## **2 Legal status of the charity** 

The charity is a Charitable Incorporeated Organisation registered with the Charity Commission in the United Kingdom and has no share capital. The registered office address is disclosed on the first page of the trustees' report.
