TRUSTEES’ REPORT
CHUTER EDE CIO
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
The trustees present their report and accounts for the year ended 31 March 2022.
Structure, governance and management
The charity was established under its constitution on 29 November 2016 and registered as a charity with the Charity Commission on that date.
The trustees who served during the year were:
Mrs A J Walsh Mr K A Jessen Mr C Scudder
The appointment of trustees is set out in the Constitution.

The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.

TRUSTEES’ REPORT (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022
Achievements and performance
Well after a few tough years we have finally been abler to reopen an allow the general public through the doors. Although a slow start it has been great to watch the confidence grow inside people and feel more comfortable again.
We decide to keep our covid measures in place throughout the year as it has been good practice in order to help the more vulnerable members of our centre and we have watched more and more people come back every week.
We’ve been lucky enough to bring in some new groups to our centre this year and I feel soon we will be full again which just shows how much of a need there is for community facilities in the local area. Demolition is starting on site on some of the old, disused areas which hope will help to reduce overheads on us. All positives I feel looking forward to the next year.
Financial review
The receipts and payments account on page 4 shows a surplus of receipts to payments on unrestricted funds of £15,413 for the year ended 31 March 2022 after taking into account the Covid Grants from Local Government and the Central Government Job Retention Scheme Grants totalling £28,562.. As a result of these grants we were able to pay our staff 100% of their salaries.
It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to between three and six months’ expenditure. The trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in income, they will be able to continue the charity’s current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. This level of reserves has been maintained throughout the year.
On behalf of the board of trustees
Mrs A J Walsh Trustee Dated 24 November 2022

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT
TO THE TRUSTEES OF CHUTER EDE CIO
I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2022 which are set out on pages 4 to 6.
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 require for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
(i) examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
-
(ii) 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
-
(iii) 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:
-
(a) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
-
(i) to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and
-
(ii) to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act
-
have not been met; or
-
(b) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
