## Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 December 2022
## **Objectives and activities (continued)**
## **The charity's main activities**
Burmantofts Senior Action CIO (BSA) mission is to improve the lives of older age people (60+) in and around the area of LS9 East Leeds. BSA helps older people to live independently in their own home, find alternative appropriate accommodation, reduce social isolation and loneliness through social groups, events, and trips, promote healthy life choices, and assist with individual support. BSA works in partnership with health, social and charitable organisations in the local area and city wide. We celebrate the individual, what they have achieved in life and what they still want to achieve now; aiming to strengthen participants to be valued members of the local community.
## BSA aims to:
- l Relieve social isolation and loneliness.
- l Identify gaps in provisions for support.
- l Support older people to live independently.
- l Promote social inclusion for all communities.
- l Be an open and friendly place for local people to drop in.
- l Improve the previsions of digital engagement in the area.
- l Try to improve the environment where older people live.
- l Reduce the burden on NHS services by supporting community care.
- l Work with partner organisations who bring additional resources to our area.
- l Be a force for good, championing the wishes and needs of older age people.
## **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.
## **Achievements and performance**
During 2022 BSA has significantly strengthen its approach and services. The staff team entered its first full year under the management of Tom Armstrong as Project Manager and the team has grown to 6 members of staff. Thanks to the dedication and support of its Chair the Trustee board has grown to 8 people, including many people from the local area. BSA was not immune to the further challenges in 2022 including challenges on fundraising. However, we are pleased to report that the year saw BSA return a stable financial position and one the trustees feel sets a solid foundation for future growth. BSA continues to support the most vulnerable members of our community with wellbeing telephone calls, home visits, one-off trips and events, outreach support on finance and benefits, and food and essentials help where needed. Our partnership approach, working with other community focused organisations continues to showcase good results, as does our increased focus on volunteering.

## Trustees' report (continued) for the year ended 31 December 2022
## **Financial review**
The net income for the year was £28,447, including net income of £17,486 on unrestricted funds and net income of £10,961 on restricted funds.
## **Reserves policy**
The charity's free reserves, excluding fixed assets, at the year end were £41,195.
Once a year the Trustees of BSA consider the level of reserves that it is prudent for the organisation to hold. Consideration is given to redundancy liabilities, lease agreements and any other significant factors that should be taken into account if the organisation were to close. This is currently set to 3 months of operating costs, equating to £30k.

## Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Burmantofts Senior Action CIO
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the CIO for the year ended 31 December 2022, which are set out on pages 6 to 14.
## **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.

## Notes to the accounts
## for the year ended 31 December 2022
## **1 Accounting policies**
## **Basis of accounting**
These accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019) and with the Charities Act 2011. The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. There has been no change to the accounting policies since last year.
No changes have been made to the accounts for previous years.
## **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, 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**
Grants and donations are only included in the SOFA when the charity has unconditional entitlement to the resources.
Where grants are related to performance and specific deliverables, they are accounted for as the charity earns the right to consideration by its performance.
## **Expenditure and liabilities**
Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to pay out the resources and the amount of the obligation can be measured with reasonable certainty.
## **Taxation**
As a charity the organisation benefits from rates relief and is generally exempt from income tax and capital gains tax but not from VAT. Irrecoverable VAT is included in the cost of those items to which it relates.
## **Tangible fixed assets**
Tangible fixed assets costing more than £250 are capitalised and included at cost including any incidental expenses of acquisition. Gifted assets are shown at the value to the charity on receipt. Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets at rates calculated to write off the cost on a straight line basis over their expected useful economic lives as follows: Fixtures and fittings: over 4 years IT equipment: over 4 years
## **Pensions**
The charity operates a defined contribution scheme for the benefit of its employees. The costs of contributions are recognised in the year they are payable.
## **Fund accounting**
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity. Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure imposed by the donor or through the terms of an appeal.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the accounts.
