WHITEWELL BOTTOM COMMUNITY CENTRE CIO
CHARITY NUMBER 1178687 REPORT FOR THE YEAR 2021
2021 was a period of limited activity due to lockdown. The Centre saw little activity until March 2021, when our pre-school returned full time. During this period the works to the Centre funded by Lancashire Environmental Fund for insulation, replacement doors and windows and work to the washrooms were completed and signed off and volunteers finished off the interior re-painting of the Centre. From March 2021 we resumed some limited activity with our previously furloughed part-time member of staff returning in May, 2021. The monthly bonus ball draw continued during this time and our trustees met fortnightly to review the situation. We had an online virtual duck race at the beginning of April, which raised some much-needed funds. We also received further COVID support from Rossendale Borough Council and the Rawtenstall Community Partnership.
Our previous Chair of Trustees indicated his intention to resign at the end of January 2021 and I took over as Acting Chair and Jackie Oakes as Acting Vice Chair until the AGM when new officer roles were agreed by the Trustees. We also had a change of independent examiner for our accounts from 2021 with Martin Urquhart from Lumb Accountants, taking over the role. Tragically we lost our Treasurer in March and Amanda Robertson formally took over this role at the AGM in May.
The Centre fully opened its doors again in July 2021 and we were successful in gaining funding for a series of outdoor activities to welcome users and friends back to the Centre. ‘Escape from Lockdown’ was a great success and included activities such as Tai Chi and guided walks. More than anything else people were grateful for the opportunity to interact in person again.
Between July and the end of the year, we gradually welcomed back our regular user groups and hosted a number of events at the Centre. We also introduced an online booking system, which has been a great help.
By the end of the year most of our user groups had returned and the Centre was resuming its vibrant roll in the Community. An application had also gone in for replacing our existing lighting with LED, which will greatly reduce our carbon footprint as well as save on energy costs. We also started fundraising to restore the hall floor during 2022.

WHITEWELL BOTTOM COMMUNITY CENTRE CIO, WHITEWELL BOTTOM, ROSSENDALE
Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of Whitewell Bottom Community Centre, Whitewell Bottom, Rossendale.
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Whitewell Bottom Community Centre for the year ended 31 December 2021.
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 2011 Act and 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:
-
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.
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.
