As the committee of trustees of the charity considers this report, I would like to remind the committee of our obligatiorbs. the appropriate financial reportin framework and any requirements for independent VIeW or audit. Applicable framework and requirements All charities are required to prepare accounts and, in the case of registered charities. file accounts per the required accountin8 framework with the trustees. annual report and an annual return. For a Charitable Incorporated Organisation ICIOI such as Disley Under Fives, note that it is a charity registered as a body corporate under Part 11 of the Charities Act 2011. While a body corporate ijnder this legislation, it is not a charitable company. which mean5 a company formed and registered with Companies House under the Companie5 Act 2006 and which is established for exclusive charitable purposes. This distinction is important for the relevant and appropriate accounting framework. CIOS may opt to prepare their accounts on a receipts and payments basis if their gross income is less than £250.000. Otherwise the accounts are prepared on an accruals basis, in accordance with The Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and The Statement of Recommended Practice- Accounting and Reporting by Charities, issued in March 20051"SORV). For the purposes of the accounts for thts period. I recommend that Disley Under Fives continues to report on a receipts and payments basis of accountin8 Icash accountifigl for this period, as the gross income remains less than £250.OCQ per annum- this would also be a continuation in accounting poltcy from the previou5 period.

Income Fee income was circa 13% lower than the previous. in part due to no fundraising activities in the year. but also a material fall in funding from Cheshire E35t, as the number ot children attending the setting had fallen. Overall, the setting's underlying income base remains dominated by funding from public sources (Cheshire East Council), albeit wtth a an approximate 11>12% increase Én additional hours paid by parent5lguardians in comparison to the average overthe past few year5. Expenses The setting had anticipated an increase in the number of children later in the year. but as this did not materialise. payroll cost reductions were modest in compari50n to the fall in income, circa 4% compared to the previous 12 months.

There were a couple of notable falls in expendtture in the period vs last year, as follows: A lower level of non-recurring expenditure on renovations and new equipment1£469 vs £2,210 in the previous yearl- and A notable, but 5m311 decrease in professional and other services1£3.428 vs £5.761 in the previous year. This is attributable to fewer recruitment-1Jted fees and certain training courses for staff.
