## **The Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 March 2021 (continued)** 

## _Going Concern_ 

The board members consider it appropriate to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. Nottinghamshire YMCA have provided a parental guarantee for the company for the reporting period and has agreed to provide a parental guarantee for the forthcoming 12 months. 

## **Financial Review** 

## **Reserves Policy** 

The trustees consider the financial position of the charity to be satisfactory. Being in its early stage of development, the Trustees will formulate a relevant reserve policy once positive reserves are held. 

## **Future Plans** 

The charity aims to focus delivery on small youth projects supporting young people in the local community. 

## **Public Benefit** 

The trustees have given due consideration to the Charity Commissions Guidance on the operation of the Public Benefit requirement. The charity aims to meet the needs of the community of Newark and Sherwood on the streets, in schools and at the Community and Activity Village. 

## **Responsibilities of the Trustees** 

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Annual Report and the Financial Statements in accordance with the Companies Act 2006, and for being satisfied that the financial statements give a true and fair view. The Trustees are also responsible for preparing financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

Company law 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 charitable company as at the balance sheet date and of its incoming resources and application of resources including income and expenditure for the financial year. In preparing those 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 (FRS102); 

- Make judgments 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; and 

- Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue on that basis. 

The trustees are responsible for maintaining adequate accounting records which show and explain the Charity’s transactions with reasonable accuracy at any time, the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

In so far as we are aware: 

- There is no relevant information of which the charitable company’s independent examiner are unaware of; and 

- We have taken all the steps that we ought to have taken to make ourselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the charitable company’s independent examiners are aware of that information.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of YMCA Newark and Sherwood** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the company for the year ended 31 March 2021 which are set out on pages 8 to 15. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity trustees of the company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (‘the 2006 Act’). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your company’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no 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 company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or 

4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). 

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.
