**ACTIVE FUSION** 

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023** 

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 August 2023. The trustees have adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) "Accounting and Reporting by Charities" in preparing the annual report and financial statements of the charity. 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in notes to the accounts and comply with the charity’s governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and 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 published in October 2019. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document** 

The organisation is a charitable incorporated organisation, Incorporated in October 2017 and began operating in March 2018. The charity was established under a Memorandum of Association which established the objects and powers of the charitable organisation and is governed under it's Charitable Constitution. In the event of the charity being wound up, there is no liability for the Trustees. Reference and administrative details are shown in the schedule of members of the board and professional advisers below. 

## **Recruitment and appointment of new trustees** 

The Trustees form the governing body of the charity and are responsible for ensuring the organisation is working within the bounds of its purpose. The trustees review membership in the light of skills and experience required and available. The review forms the basis of on-going recruitment through local networks and regional agencies. 

Trustees are elected at the charity's Annual General Meeting. 

Our Trustees have a wealth and diversity of professional skills, experience and knowledge to contribute to the development of the organisation, and are committed to the vision, mission and values of Active Fusion. 

Trustees are fully aware of their responsibilities regarding the organisation. 

## **Decision making** 

The day to day management of the organisation is delegated to the Director and Chief Executive Officer Lindsy James. 

## **Induction and training of new trustees** 

New trustees undertake and an induction programme briefing them on their legal obligations under charity and company law, the content of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the board and decision making processes, the business plan, current activity and recent financial performance of the charity. Where appropriate, trustees attend training to assist them with the role. Trustees are also encouraged to visit the charities services and projects to get a better understanding of the work.  All trustees complete safeguarding training and have DBS checks. 

## **Key management remuneration** 

The governing body ensures that the process of determining the remuneration of the individual members of the leadership group is both fair and transparent. 

In recommending the individual pay ranges for leadership posts, the governing body is mindful to respect appropriate differentials with regard to the particular responsibilities of each post. At the same time this process allows sufficient leeway to enable good performance to be rewarded by commensurate progression within the leadership group.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023** 

## **Risk management** 

The Trustees have overall responsibility for ensuring that the charity has appropriate systems of controls, financial and otherwise, to manage the risks that it faces and to provide reasonable assurance that the charity is operating effectively and efficiently. 

The Trustees have a risk management strategy which consists of: 

- Reviewing the risks at every trustee meeting and reviewing the systems and procedures to mitigate any identified risks; 

- Annual review of the risks the charity may face; 

- Particular attention has focussed on risk assessment of all activities delivered ensuring the safety and wellbeing of both staff and the charities beneficiaries; 

- Financial risk is addressed through the income generation strategy in every trustee meeting and the implementation of a reserves policy which is reviewed annually by the Board of Trustees. 

## **Public benefit** 

We have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aim and objectives and in planning our future activities. In particular, the trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set. 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES, ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE** 

The above are detailed, along with the chair's report on pages 2 to 25 of this report. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial Position** 

Income for the year ended 31 August 2023 amounted to £675,032 

Expenditure amounted to £755,993 

At 31 August 2023 unrestricted reserves amounted to £370,002 and £25,155 of restricted reserves. 

## **Principal funding sources** 

Charitable income is sourced from grants, trusts and foundations, tenders, donations and the provision of paid for services for schools, colleges, communities and business. 

## **Reserves policy** 

The Board of Trustees reviews the reserve levels of the Charity annually at the year-end and as part of its budget planning process. This review encompasses the nature of income and expenditure streams, the need to match income with commitments and the nature of reserves, and necessary consideration/responses to developmental/change processes initiated in house or required by changes in national scenarios. 

The purpose of the unrestricted reserves are to ensure the stability of the mission, programs, employment, and ongoing operations of the organisation. The reserves are intended to provide an internal source of funds for situations such as a sudden increase in expense, unanticipated loss in funding, or uninsured losses. The reserve may also be used for one-time, non-recurring expenses that will build long-term capacity, such as staff development, research and development, or investment within infrastructure. 

The Trustees have determined that an ideal level of unrestricted reserves should be equivalent to no greater than 6 - 12 months operating expenditure due to the uncertain level of secured funding. 

At forecast levels of activity this places the reserves requirement at £340,002 for the year ahead, this is equivalent to 6 months operating costs. 

The Trustees have reviewed and are satisfied with the current level of reserves. 

## **Going Concern** 

After making appropriate enquiries, the Board of Trustees has a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason it continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023** 

## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES** 

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). 

The law applicable to charities in England & Wales 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 2019 (FRS 102); 

- 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 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 , the Charities (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 for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

**INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF ACTIVE FUSION** 

**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Active Fusion (the Trust) for the year ended 31 August 2023 which are set out on pages 31 to 43. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity trustees of the Trust 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 Trust's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Independent Examiner's statement** 

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the Act. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a registered member of the ICAEW (Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales) which is one of the listed bodies. 

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: 

- Accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or 

- the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

- 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.

**ACTIVE FUSION** 

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **General information and basis of preparing the financial statements** 

Active Fusion is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) whose only voting members are its trustees. In the event of the charity being wound up the members of the CIO have no liability to contribute to its assets and no personal responsibility for settling its debts and liabilities. The address of the charity is given in the charity information on page 18 of these statements. The nature of the charity's operations and principal activities are to help every child develop a love for being active by unlocking potential and creating positive habits for life. 

The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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) (effective 1 October 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. 

Active Fusion meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS102. 

The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention and are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £1. 

## **Income** 

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

For donations to be recognised the charity will have been notified of the amounts and the settlement dates in writing. If there are conditions attached to the donation and this requires a level of performance before entitlement can be obtained then income is deferred until those conditions are fully met or the fulfilment of those conditions is within the control of the charity and it is probable that they will be fulfilled. 

## **Government Grants** 

Grant income relating to revenue is recognised on an accruals basis. Income is recognised on a systematic basis over the periods in which the entity recognises the related costs for which the grant is intended to compensate. A grant that becomes receivable as compensation for expenses or losses already incurred or for the purpose of giving immediate financial support with no future related costs is recognised in income in the period in which it becomes receivable. 

## **Expenditure** 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure if accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributable to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

Expenditure includes VAT which cannot be recovered.

**ACTIVE FUSION** 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED** 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023** 

## **Governance costs** 

Governance costs include the cost of the preparation and examination of the statutory accounts and any cost associated with governance or constitutional matters. 

## **Allocation and apportionment of costs** 

Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. E.g. Floor area, per capita or estimated usage. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. 

Fixtures and fittings 

- 10% or 33 1/3% on cost 

Fixed assets are capitalised at cost where value exceeds £200. 

## **Stocks** 

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. 

Donated stocks are included at fair value. 

## **Taxation** 

The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities. 

## **Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees. 

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. 

Designated funds are those unrestricted funds which have been set aside by trustees for an essential spend or future purpose. 

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements. 

## **Leasing commitments** 

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities on a straight line basis over the period of the lease. 

## **Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits** 

The charity operated a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charity's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.
