Structure, governance and management

The charity is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) formed on 3 November 2016 and is governed by an association constitution.

Method of recruitment and appointment of trustees

The trustees of the charity are appointed by the members at the AGM with one-third of trustees retiring from office each year.

Objectives and activities

The charity's objects

To further or benefit the residents of Scholemoor and the neighbouring communities, without distinction of sex, sexual orientation, race or of political, religious or other opinions by associating together the said residents and the local authorities, voluntary and other organisations in a common effort to advance education and to provide facilities in the interest of social welfare for recreation and leisure time occupation with the objective of improving the conditions of life for the residents. In furtherance of these objects but not otherwise, the trustees shall have power:

Scholemoor Beacon CIO

Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2024

Objectives and activities (continued)

The charity's objects (continued)

To establish or secure the establishment of a community centre and to maintain or manage or co-operate with any statutory authority in the maintenance and management of such a centre for activities promoted by the charity in furtherance of the above objects.

To develop the capacity and skills of the members of the socially and economically disadvantaged community of Scholemoor in such a way that they are better able to identify, and help meet, their needs and to participate more fully in society.

To promote such other charitable purposes (charitable under English law) for the public benefit in Scholemoor and for the benefit of the neighbouring communities as may from time to time be determined. Nothing in this constitution shall authorise an application of the property of the CIO for purposes which are not charitable in accordance with section 7 of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and section 2 of the Charities Act (Northern Ireland) 2008.

The charity's main activities

Since the extension to the community centre which opened in April 2021 we have been able to deliver so much more to local people. Three years on – it feels like we need yet another extension, due to pressure on the building and trying to balance the competing demands of income generation and providing sessions to meet the needs of the local community.

We have seen a slight increase in our earned income through one off room hire and hope to develop more long term arrangements to ensure that we are diversifying our funding as much as possible.

We continue to offer a range of sessions for local people across all ages and offer one to one support for those in crisis. We have successfully got additional funding for young people and are extending the offer to provide one to one support to them and provide new opportunities to achieve. This includes supporting a young person to take part in their college course, another to respond more positively to advice and support a young woman taking a pregnancy test. We are putting in place plans to get young people represented at Board meetings and to have their voice heard throughout the organisation.

Public benefit statement

In setting our objectives and planning our activities our trustees have given serious consideration to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit and in particular improving the lives of people living in Scholemoor, providing a range of activities and increasing the capacity of local residents.

Achievements and performance

We held our first Feedback week in November around the time of the AGM, with a new feedback form that we had created while spending time creating a Theory of Change (ToC) through support of Power to Change Funding. The feedback was overwhelmingly positive and there are a number of local people who come to the centre more than once a week and feel that we are a safe space where they can get help and support. Volunteers are welcome and the recipient of volunteer of the year 2023 travels every week from Leeds to support the older people’s lunch club.

The FoodSavers marketplace goes from strength to strength with seventy active member and money saved by members into the credit union for 2023 – 2024 was over £3500, for some people this would be their first experience of saving. Every time they come to the marketplace they buy 10 items and £1 of what they pay goes into their credit union account.

Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2024

Achievements and performance (continued)

We continued some of the same activities including Holiday provision for children and young people, Scholemoor Youth Action Group and wellbeing activities for adults. We started some new sessions – thanks to Comic Relief funding and welcomed Shanaz to the team. These were 3 sessions a week after school and included cooking, sports and a mini youth group. There was also some events on a Saturday morning as well. We made some new partnerships over the year including building a relationship with Beacon Boxing Club, providing football sessions in partnership with Bradford City Football Foundation and Friends of Bradford Becks.

We continued to focus on play and getting children active, in the school holidays and term time and took part in a Street Play pilot in January. We delivered some Story Sack training to parents and worked with the Create Strength group to find out more about Trauma informed practice and staff members undertook Adverse Childhood Trauma training.

Local people often ask us to arrange trips to places of interest and we were able to take 2 coaches to Scarborough this year, a trip to St Ives (Bingley) and Tong Garden Centre with the Wellbeing groups. We also took 2 coaches to Yorkshire Wildlife Park in the summer and a great time was had by all.

We had some special events as well including a celebration for the coronation of King Charles, a Here to Help event in partnership with Department for Work and Pensions (DWP), Family Support session for those families with Children who have Special Educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND) and a visit from the ever-popular Jellyfish Theatre. Bringing information or having a focus is brilliant for Scholemoor as there are fewer opportunities for the children, families and residents living here.

Scholemoor Beacon has continued to support activities wider than Scholemoor and advocate for Scholemoor. We are the deputy anchor of the WOW community partnership, member of Bradford Community Play Partnership, Great Horton Ward Leadership Team and on the board of the Local Access Bradford and District Partnership.

Bradford 2025, City of Culture is approaching and our young people have been active in focus groups and two young people attended the brand launch for Bradford 2025. We are delivering a Youth Arts project currently and planning to take full advantage of City of Culture.

Financial review

The net expenditure for the year was £18,136, including net income of £6,195 on unrestricted funds and net expenditure of £24,331 on restricted funds after transfers.

Scholemoor Beacon CIO

Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 March 2024

Reserves policy

The charity's free reserves, excluding fixed assets, at the year end were £86,609.

This represents around 5 months of budgeted expenditure.

1 The purpose of our reserves policy is to:
l Give confidence to funders by demonstrating good stewardship and financial management
l Demonstrate the charity’s sustainability and capacity to manage unforeseen financial difficulties
l Give voluntary funders, such as grant-makers, an understanding of why funding is needed to undertake a particular project or activity
l Give assurance to lenders and creditors that the charity can meet its financial commitments
l Manage risk to the charity’s reputation from holding substantial unspent funds at the year-end without explanation
2 Scholemoor Beacon is currently dependent on donations and grants to sustain its activities. If these existing sources of income are depleted or lost, it is crucial to ensure that there are sufficient reserves to keep Scholemoor Beacon running for 3 months or to allow the charity to wind up while meeting its obligation to staff and service users.

The main concerns of the board are to ensure:

l That staff can continue working
l That staff can be supported if the charity should go through a time of financial instability
3 It is the policy of the Trustees to maintain reserves sufficient to cover all the Restricted Funds and no less than three months' and no more than six months' operating costs. These reserves should be built up from the unrestricted income.
4 . If the charity has excess reserves then the board will consider how these funds could be best used and make this clear by designating funds for future expenditure. If this is the case then these designations and timings are included as an appendix to this policy.
5 . If significant resources are held in reserves then the board may consider investing some of these funds to obtain a financial return for the charity. In making these decisions, the board will consider the likelihood that some or all of the reserves held may need to be accessed at short notice.
6 If the charity has excess reserves, the board will ensure that the organisation does not misrepresent the urgency or need for funds with donors.
7 The level of reserves should be calculated and monitored every 3 months by the Treasurer.
8 This policy shall be reviewed every 3 years and whenever there are significant changes in staff hours, staff numbers or new projects.

Approved by the board of trustees on 20/11/2024

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Scholemoor Beacon CIO

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the CIO for the year ended 31 March 2024, which are set out on pages 7 to 16.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity trustees of the CIO you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').

I report in respect of my examination of the CIO's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act. In carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent examiner's statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Charities Act;

2 the accounts do not accord with those records; or
3 the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

1 Accounting policies

Basis of accounting

Going concern

The trustees are satisfied that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue.

Incoming resources

All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when the charity becomes entitled to the resources, if it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources and the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.

Grants and donations

Where grants are related to performance and specific deliverables, they are accounted for as the charity earns the right to consideration by its performance.
