A word from our Chair Sarah Hayward

On behalf of the Board of Trustees, I would like to warmly welcome you to our Annual Report for 23/24. This past year has again been one of challenge where we have faced the continuing cost of living crisis.

I must express our heartfelt thanks to our former Chair of the Board of Trustees, Justin Richards, who left us recently. Justin led with passion and empathy, knowledge and skills donated on a voluntary basis to help support the trust. I also wish to thank Steve and Shelley for stepping into the breach and helping to handle the duties of the Chair. Heartfelt thanks to all our trustees, who volunteer their time to support the amazing team.

With Beth Rice, our CEO, leaving us for pastures new in the new financial year, I also wanted to extend our deepest gratitude to her for the amazing work that she has achieved over the last six years. She has shown real passion for the role and drive to make the lives of others better with the services that we provide—thank you and good luck in your new role; please do not be a stranger.

I also wish to welcome our incoming CEO, Dominic Scotton. We look forward to how he will enhance our work with exciting future ideas and projects.

Again this year, we have broadened our connections with other voluntary groups and partnered with other organisations to provide services for which we are immensely grateful to them for their support. To all our staff, volunteers, and partners: thank you for your ongoing support; we could not do it without you.

This past year, the Community Shop has been a source of much-needed support for the local community, and expanding that with the mobile shop has benefited many families and individuals. Our huge thanks go to Beth for her amazing fundraising, which has enabled us to continue and even expand what we do to help the local community but also further afield.

As we look forward to 2024/25, the Board hopes that the trust will continue to broaden its connections and create an even bigger impact. RCT will continue to put the heart in Repton and look forward to bringing communities together.

Chief Executive Beth Rice

It gives me great pleasure to introduce Repton Community Trust’s Annual Report in what has been a year of creativity and growth. Our emphasis this year has been on ensuring the long-term sustainability of our projects/services and creating new services, responding to the longer-term needs of our communities.

This year, we have focused on understanding the pressures that people face and have done everything we can to work with people to develop creative solutions to these issues. This has included working relentlessly to ensure people have food on the table and can keep the weekly shop as affordable as possible, offering great value in our community shops. We continue to offer free children and young people's holiday activities and have expanded our mobile services into East Sussex to meet local needs.

We have invested in our team, who are at the heart of everything we do. They go above and beyond to make a difference, including working every public holiday to ensure people have the food they need. We work hard to be an inclusive workplace, where our team can be at their best and build the skills to grow their careers so we can deliver a positive difference to the communities we serve.

After six years in the role, I will be moving to pastures new in the new financial year. Having arrived at a brand new, empty community centre six years ago, we’ve come so far. Working through a global pandemic and being part of an amazing team developing creative ideas and services that reach far beyond a building, I am confident we’re in a great place and a strong financial position to continue and grow.

We started the year working with people in our local communities to create a strategy based on our Theory of Change priority areas.

Reducing Food Waste and Food Insecurity

Consultancy and Sharing Best Practice

Community Spaces

I’d like to offer my thanks to the trustees, team, volunteers, and especially Charlie Lloyd, our Centre Manager, who has worked with me from the beginning. Without his support and tenacity, Repton Connect wouldn’t be the thriving community centre it is today.

Sustainable Lifestyles

I’d also like to welcome our new CEO and wish them the best of luck in their new role.

Who We Are

Our aim is to create and provide excellent resources and opportunities, empowering people to connect and build community. The objectives of our charity are to connect people in the Borough of Ashford and beyond. As well as bringing communities together, Repton Connect Community Centre, run by the Trust, offers opportunities for residents to contribute their knowledge, skills, and experience in developing educational, social, health, and leisure programmes.

Our Theory of Change (ToC) is a specific type of methodology for planning, participation, and evaluation that is used to promote social change. The Theory of Change defines our long-term goals.

Who We Are

OUR AIM:

Creating and providing excellent resources and opportunities, empowering people to connect and build community

Who We Are

In shaping our objectives and planning the activities to meet those objectives, the Trustees have considered the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit. The direct benefits which flow from our purposes are:

a) Improved well-being and health of residents.

b) Creation and use of facilities to increase the sustainable future of communities.

Enhancement of employment, training, and volunteering opportunities.

Reduced social isolation and increased activities for people.

Structure, Governance, and Management

Governing document

The trust deed is the governing document for the charity and states its overall aims and objectives. Performance monitoring with grant funders and the local authority has been established outside the board setting.

Our governing document informs the creation of our business plan for 2023/24 that establishes:

The budget for operating Repton Community Trust and Repton Connect Community Centre 1• Income targets for hire of the facilities at Repton Connect Community Centre 2• Grant funding requirements for any shortfalls between operating costs and income and for developing broader community programmes 3•

Organisational Structure

The Trust

Repton Community Trust was established in September 2016. The board of trustees is made up of volunteers with a wide-ranging skill set and interests. Each trustee brings professional expertise to support the trust in achieving its aims.

The Trust’s activities are overseen by the Board of Trustees that meets quarterly. Working groups for projects meet more frequently outside of board meetings.

Recruitment and appointment of trustees

The existing trustees are responsible for the recruitment and induction of new trustees. Before any advert or invitation is issued for new trustees:

An existing skills audit will be updated so it is clear which skills would beneficially augment the current board. We will assess current representation in terms of equity and diversity across the community.

Organisational Structure

Risk Management

As part of our ongoing responsibility for ensuring the identification and management of risk, the board adopts a rolling assessment of strategic and operational risk which is reviewed at each board meeting.

We have a risk register that details potential risks, potential impacts, and steps taken to mitigate risk. This includes governance, operational, financial, environmental, and compliance risks. In addition to this, individual areas of risk are assessed and monitored by board sub-groups, including a finance team that meets monthly and reports directly to the board.

Grant Making Policy

In the current reporting period, the trust did not make any grants to other organisations.

Partnerships and Collaborations

The Hub on Rye Hill

We have formed new partnerships this year to ensure people receive the support, help, and resources needed while dealing with the cost of living crisis and huge economic challenges. One such initiative is with The Hub on Rye Hill, a brand new community wellbeing hub in Rye, East Sussex.

The centre, which is part of Rye and District Memorial Hospital, has four distinct areas to support communities: Treatment/Therapy Spaces Group Activity Spaces Office Space & Meeting Rooms Café

As part of our work with The Hub on Rye Hill, we run bi-weekly social supermarket sessions for local residents, offering significant discounts on food, cleaning, and hygiene products. The Hub Trustees kindly provide us with free space and support, including marketing and promotion. We have recruited five new volunteers and support, on average, 20 families per one-hour session. Primary beneficiaries include residents of the local supported living centre, as transport links to local shops are poor.

It is fantastic to work with and learn from like-minded organisations, creating reciprocity and new partnerships for 2024/25.

Partnerships and Collaborations

Social Enterprise Kent & East Kent Health and Care Partnership-Better Lives Together

The ACTIVE project is improving access to healthy eating-related activities/workshops, food, and community (warm) spaces for children, young people, and their families in the Borough of Ashford. The programme is delivered primarily from Repton Connect Community Centre, with outreach sessions delivered throughout the Borough (including rural areas with poor transport links).

ACTIVE- Activities, Cooking, Time, InnoVation, Empowerment.

Specific aims are:

To increase access to healthy food for families (especially during school holidays).

To provide healthy eating-related activities for children and young people at our community centre in our fully accessible kitchen and community spaces.

To provide rural outreach and activities through our E-Van, which already provides social supermarket provision in rural areas of Ashford.

Activities are designed by children, young people, and their families to promote sustainable lifestyles and healthy eating, including:

Lunchbox Inspiration sessions.

Making healthy snacks and meals together.

Food/Drink swap games (swapping for healthier options).

Our community members are keen to offer support and resources to help each other eat healthily and limit food waste in their own homes. We have created a community of people to come together to share and learn from each other, working with over 500 people.

Partnerships and Collaborations Recipe book project-Working in Partnership with Godinton Primary School

Working in partnership with Godinton Primary School, we held a successful competition to design a recipe book and healthy recipes culminating in a prize-giving ceremony and ‘funk lunch’ workshop facilitated by Chef Diana, our Community Champion. One of the children reported it was ‘the best day of my life!’. All children attending the school were invited to take part, with fourteen finalists whose recipes feature in the book.

Achievements and performance/ Highlights and impact Mobile Community Shop

Following the success of our food projects last year, we needed to find a new way to address food insecurity in rural areas and areas with poor transport links.

People were telling us they were missing out because they couldn’t get to us. So we needed to get to them! Many people are struggling in rural areas, and we needed to reach them.

This year we:

Expanded our services into Rural Rother, East Sussex Converted a van to create a mobile community shop (social supermarket) Employed a dedicated member of staff to support the project : We provided heavily subsidised food, cleaning, and hygiene products to people in Rural Rother and areas of Ashford with poor transport links, including Appledore and Finberry.

We currently support 267 families in Rural Rother, with numbers increasing every month.

Our pop up shop in partnership with Finberry Primary School

Achievements and Performance/ Highlights and Impact

We secured an amazing £52,000 of funding from Ashford Borough Council to support vulnerable people through The Government's Household Support Fund. This enabled us to increase our supply of food and essential items to people over Winter, which was a time of increased pressure.

Achievements and Performance/ Highlights and Impact

Our Future plans

Expand our food rescue project, decreasing food wastage and reaching more people in rural communities.

Seek continuation funding for food projects that are working well and making the greatest impact during the cost of living crisis

Achievements and Performance/ Highlights and Impact Food Projects Feedback

Never had to ask for this before but am between jobs with a back injury and can’t get out, thank you so much for the help. Very pleased that we were able to help my pet too.

Wow amazing fruit, we’ll make a big fruit salad tonight and it will keep us going with the kids snacks during the holiday’

I am very grateful for the services you provide to the community. We always come in together now because I now pick M up. He doesn’t drive and there’s no public transport. We like to come here for a chat over a cup of tea after our shopping session. You will keep coming won’t you?’

Oh I love my vegetables, really lucky with today’s selection. Will help feed the grandkids.

The shop is amazing, so good! It will help me so much with shopping bills’

Community Spaces

This year we celebrated FIVE YEARS of Repton Connect Community Centre, a spontaneous place continuing to bring people together to talk, play, learn, create social networks, and spend time together.

Repton Connect Community Centre continued to be a hub for free Children and Young People's activities thanks to a grant from Clarion Futures and Ashford Leisure Trust. Clubs, businesses, organisations, volunteers, and our staff team came together to create fabulous opportunities for children and young people.

We provided free holiday activities for over 1,000 people, including arts and crafts, sports, outdoor learning, and much more. Activities were based on ideas from children and young people.

The team

Community Spaces Consultancy Services

This year we continued to provide consultancy services, working with organisations to replicate similar types of work and deliver community-led initiatives. Our CEO and Centre Manager provided consultancy in the following areas:

Securing funding

Management of Community Facilities

Highlights include securing a contract with The Mildred Trust to support their approach to Asset-Based Community Development in the next financial year. Again, one of the challenges we experienced this year was the expectation of organisations requesting free support. We are now offering a more businessfocused model, providing unique solutions that reflect current circumstances and aspirations.

Enhancement of employment, training, and volunteering opportunities for people in the local area.

Staffing

We are delighted to currently employ eight people, including seven Ashford residents who have a wealth of knowledge about the local area and resources.

With the growth of the organisation, we maintained our leadership team to utilise a more streamlined structure for both Repton Connect and The Food Projects Teams. This created new career pathways and succession planning, working towards a collective business strategy.

Team members had the opportunity to undertake a varied programme of training, learning and development this year, including Compassionate Leadership Principles, Asset Based Community Development, Competency Based Performance Management, Level 2 Understanding Health Improvement, Designated Safeguarding Officer Level 3, Food Safety Levels 1, 2 and 3, COSHH and EFAW.

Financial Review

A blended approach to funding Is undertaken and includes:

Funding Strategy

Our funding strategy was maintained this year to ensure the long-term sustainability of Repton Community Trust and the delivery of our vision to ‘Put the heart in Communities’. We needed to ensure we were applying for funding to meet the Immediate needs of our community members whilst maintaining a long-term vision.

Funding Approach

The approach to funding needed to be reactive as well as planned to ensure we responded to emerging needs. The delivery of the Funding Strategy Is owned by the Chief Executive. A twelve-month rolling plan of funding streams are identified through our Theory of Change and are regularly monitored and reviewed.

Local Partnerships

The Trust is committed to working closely with other charities, social enterprises, community groups, and locally focused organisations to maximise funding

opportunities and pool resources, expertise, and knowledge to deliver our objectives. Local partnerships have grown this year to include joint funding opportunities and working together to include a geographical spread of services, including more rural areas.

Bidding For Funding

A carefully researched and broad range of funding opportunities is developed that meet the vision and aims of the trust. This is regularly reviewed and refreshed to minimize any gaps, always ensuring alignment with our vision and ambitions.

Financial ReviewFinancial review

Funding Risks and Challenges

One of the greatest challenges facing us as a charity remains the cost of living crisis. As of March 2024, there continue to be many financial unknowns, although energy prices have thankfully stabilised. The organisation is carefully meeting our operating costs and applying for funding to sustain core costs. We recognise that there is now much more competition for grant funding. We have observed that funders' focus continues to shift towards funding new projects and ideas. This creates a challenge to fund projects and services that are working well and making the most impact, addressing the longer-term needs of our communities.

A robust business plan has been prepared for 24/25. The business plan will be regularly monitored with a strong focus on maximising grants and room hire income. In addition, long-term funding bids will be researched and developed to support the organisation.

It is hard to predict for which funding opportunities we will be successful and the exact timings of the awards. To mitigate this, we have secured a large amount of grant funding to be received in the first quarter of 24/25, which will give the new CEO time to develop a broad range of funding streams.

Financial ReviewFinancial review

Plans For Future Periods - Circular Economy

Sustainable development goals continue to be vital. Our own goals include engaging in the circular economy. We focus on reducing waste and repurposing materials, eco-friendly restructuring of our systems of production and consumption, and being a vehicle for social good.

Food rescue is an integral part of our work, reducing food waste and increasing knowledge and access to food within our communities. We create systems where materials never become waste. We are delighted to have recently been awarded a grant from Hubbub to develop our food rescue infrastructure, especially for farm-to-table produce, creating tools to help shape a more prosperous and sustainable local food network using surplus food.

Financial Statement and reviewFinancial Statement

Repton Community Trust CIO For The Year Ended 3 April 2024

Many of our financial transactions occur over a period of several months/accounting periods, which is why our accruals-based accounting system supports us in reflecting overall cash flow.

We are delighted to have generated a small surplus of £13,000 in this financial year. This is well ahead of business planning projections. TBC is also reflected as part of a provision for liabilities associated with the Repton Connect building, as listed in our lease with Ashford Borough Council.

We have established operating reserves and a sinking fund for Repton Connect Community Centre. As we have a full repairing lease, it is vital that reserves are established for major refurbishment works in the coming years. This will include MUGA resurfacing and floor replacement in the main hall.

Statement of trustees’ responsibilities

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

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the charity trustees to prepare financial statements for each year that 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 the 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 accounting standards 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 business.

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 1993, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

The trustees for the purposes of charity law who served during the year and up to the date of this report are set out on page 1.

Section C Notes to the accounts (cont)

Note 2 Accounting policies 2.2 INCOME

This standard list of accounting policies has been applied by the charity except for those ticked "No" or "N/a". Where a different or additional policy has been adopted then this is detailed in the box below.

Recognition of income
These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when:
Offsetting
Grants and donations
Legacies
Government grants
The charity has received government grants in the reporting period
Donated goods
Support costs
The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs.
Volunteer help
· the charity becomes entitled to the resources;
· it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources; and
· the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.
There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required
or permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102.
Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income
recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP).
In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent
that the charity has provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant
only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP).
Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has
been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in
the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the
charity or have been met.
Tax reclaims on donations
and gifts
Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor.
Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is
treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the
terms of the appeal have specified otherwise.
Contractual income and
performance related
grants
This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or
services or met the performance related conditions.
Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be
exchanged) unless impractical to do so.
The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be
the fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on receipt.
In the reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised as an
expense at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution.
Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the
expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income
from other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance
sheet. On its sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading
activities' and the proceeds from sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading
activities'.
Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets
and included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable.
Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations
when receivable.
Donated services and
facilities
Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of
the gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably.
Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as
income with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate
heading in the SOFA.
The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described
in the trustees’ annual report.
Income from interest,
royalties and dividends
This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can
be measured reliably.
Income from membership
subscriptions
Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in Donations
and Legacies.

benefits are recognised as income earned from the provision of goods and services as
income from charitable activities.
Settlement of insurance
claims
Insurance claims are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition
criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP) and are included as an item of other
income in the SoFA.
Investment gains and
losses
This includes any realised or unrealised gains or losses on the sale of investments and
any gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the
year.
Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or
constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the
obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty.
Governance and support
costs
Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support.
Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its
compliance with regulation and good practice.
Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost
categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating property costs
by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.
Grants with performance
conditions
Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of
service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the
recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output.
Grants payable without
performance conditions
Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity to
realistically avoid the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must be
recognised.
The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade
discounts
A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently
measured at the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the
reporting date
Basic financial
instruments
The charity accounts for basic financial instruments on initial recognition as per
paragraph 11.7 FRS102 SORP. Subsequent measurement is as per paragraphs 11.17
to 11.19, FRS102 SORP.
Tangible fixed assets for
use by charity
The charity has intangible fixed assets, that is, non-monetary assets that do not have
physical substance but are identifiable and are controlled by the charity through custody
or legal rights. The amortisation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 9.5
The charity has heritage assets, that is, non-monetary assets with historic, artistic,
scientific, technological, geophysical or environmental qualities that are held and
maintained principally for their contribution to knowledge and culture. The depreciation
rates and methods used as disclosed in note 9.6.1.4.
Fixed asset investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are
valued at initially at cost and subsequently at fair value (their market value) at the year
end. The same treatment is applied to unlisted investments unless fair value cannot be
measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment.
Investments held for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a
maturity date of less than 1 year are treated as current asset investments
Stocks and work in
progress
Stocks held for sale as part of non-charitable trade are measured at the lower or cost or net
realisable value.
Goods or services provided as part of a charitable activity are measured at net realisable value
based on the service potential provided by items of stock.

Work in progress is valued at cost less any foreseeable loss that is likely to occur on the contract.
Debtors
Current asset investments
They are valued at fair value except where they qualify as basic financial instruments.

settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity. Subsequently,
they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received.
The charity has has investments which it holds for resale or pending their sale and cash and
cash equivalents with a maturity date less than one year. These include cash on deposit and

• the accounts do not accord with such records; or
• the accounts do not comply with relevant accounting requirements under
section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 other than any requirement that the
accounts give a ‘true and fair’ view which is not a matter considered as part
of an independent examination; or
