**Northchurch Community Centre** Annual report and financial statements Year ended 31 March 2021 

**Trustees’ annual report** 

## **Trustees’ annual report** 

The Board of Trustees submit their annual report and the financial statements of Northchurch Community Centre for the year ended 31 March 2021. The Board of Trustees confirms that the annual report and financial statements of the Charity comply with current statutory requirements, including the Charity Act 2011, as well as the requirements of the Charity's governing document and the provisions of 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) second edition (effective 1 January 2019)’, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). 

## **Vision** 

Our vision is that the Social Centre will continue to act as a bridge for our community by providing space for groups to meet, and a location where groups can connect with each other.  It is a unique and vital space for the wellbeing of our community, that provides space to meet, learn, develop skills, worship and exercise.  We are committed to providing the very best quality accommodation that we can for all of our groups. 

## **Community** 

During the period of this report we’ve had the following groups using our space: 

- Ashley Green Lace Makers 

- Berkhamsted and Tring Sewing Bee 

- Northchurch Baptist Church 

- Northchurch Lace Makers 

## **Achievements and performance** 

- Northchurch Parish Council 

- Rock Jam Music 

This has been one of the most challenging years that the Northchurch Community Centre has faced. The Covid pandemic forced us to close our operations for much of the year and the return to normal operations has been slow. Our hiring receipts fell to a quarter of the previous year’s level. The Centre has benefitted from Government support from the Dacorum Leisure and Hospitality Grants and from the Furlough Scheme. This has enabled the Centre to maintain its cash balance at pre-pandemic levels and to reinstate our services. I am pleased to report that the Centre is as busy as ever and has gained new regular hirers due to our resilience and ability to open our doors in a Covidsecure way as soon as the lockdowns ended. 

## **Objects** 

The objects of the charity are: 

- To promote the well-being of residents in Northchurch and surrounding areas by associating public authorities concerned, voluntary organisations, other parties and residents in a common effort to further health, to advance education, to provide facilities for physical and mental training and recreation, and social, moral and intellectual development, and to foster a community spirit for the achievement of these and other charitable objects; and, 

- To maintain, manage and develop the community centre or to cooperate with any local statutory authority, authorities or other parties in the community in the maintenance and management of such a centre, for activities promoted by the association and its constituent bodies in furtherance of the foregoing objects or any of them. 

- Sing and Sign 

- Stroke Support 

- Table Tennis 

- U3A 

- Women’s Institute 

These groups meet weekly or monthly on a regular basis, meaning that our users are a series of communities in their own right, within our wider community. 

We want to thank all our regular hirers from their continued involvement at the Social Centre. Whether they are businesses or charities they provide vital financial support to keep the centre viable, and provide a broad and interesting range of activities for the community to join in with. 

## **Building** 

Our ageing building continues to need repairs. Many people have volunteered and spent hours helping us with these. I would like to express my deep thanks again for what each of you have given to the community in doing this. 

During the year, we have commissioned architect’s plans to refurbish the Community Centre and these are ready to be submitted for planning permission. I am very excited about the prospects of an improved building that will enable a greater outreach in the community. We plan to raise funds through grant applications and through major donors. 

## **Structures and team** 

Our Trustee board has five members and we have two smaller sub-committees, one for Premises and Finance, and one for Community. All of these meet at least once a quarter, but are active between times with additional meetings and email correspondence.

**Northchurch Community Centre** Annual report and financial statements Year ended 31 March 2021 

**Trustees’ annual report** 

Linzi Wesley, our Office Administrator, has been an incredible asset to the team throughout Covid. Her dedication to maintaining the Centre and to pursuing new hirers has been remarkable.  We remain very grateful to her and Frances Rumble, our cleaner, for what they do to keep the Social Centre open for our community. 

The trustees have complied with the duty to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission with respect to planning and undertaking the activities outline above. 

## **Plans for the future** 

People and the community continue to remain the focus for us all. Their needs will continue to drive our short term and long term decision making both in the operation of the Social Centre and our redevelopment plans for the future. 

## **Financial Review** 

During the current financial year the charity achieved a surplus of £63 (2020 - deficit of £15,304), increasing total reserves at year end to £142,132 (2020 - £142,069). 

Of the total reserves held at year end £48,742 were unrestricted in nature (2020 - £48,679). 

## **Reserves Policy** 

The policy of the trustees is to endeavour to ensure that the hiring charges in the year cover the estimated ongoing annual costs.  We also set aside reserves to cover major premises repairs, and renewals/repairs of major equipment. 

The income from the investments in DM Webb fund may only be used for major redecoration or refurbishment of the Social Centre in Northchurch. The capital element of the DM Webb fund is invested and held in reserve and may only be utilised should the trustees agree that major structural additions to the property are necessary to meet the Charities objectives. Any investment income not spent in the year must be held in a restricted reserve for use on future redecoration/refurbishment. 

The Trustees are confident that the current general/free reserves of £48,742 are sufficient to meet any significant repairs that may be required over the next twenty-four month period. 

## **Structure, Governance and Management** 

## **Governing Document** 

The charitable incorporated organisation was registered with the Charity Commission in England & Wales on 29 October 2018 and is governed by its constitution. All assets and liabilities of the old trust, Northchurch & District Association (charity number 

236409), were transferred to the new charitable incorporated organisation as of 1 April 2019. 

## **Recruitment and Appointment of Trustees** 

Trustees are elected to the board of trustees at the annual general meeting and hold office for a term of three years. Trustees can only be appointed by the board of trustees. There are a minimum of 3 trustees and no maximum number. 

## **Organisational structure** 

The board of trustees are responsible for governance of the charity, but delegate day to day management of the centre to an administrator. 

## **Statement of Board of Trustees’ Responsibilities** 

The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. 

Charity law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law they are required to prepare the financial statements in accordance with UK Accounting Standards and applicable law (UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including FRS 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland. 

Under charity law the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the excess of income over expenditure for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- • state whether applicable UK 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 charity will continue its activities. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charity’s transactions and 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. They have general responsibility for taking such steps as are reasonably open to them to safeguard the assets of the charity and to prevent and detect fraud and other irregularities.

**Northchurch Community Centre** Annual report and financial statements Year ended 31 March 2021 

**Independent examiner’s report** 

## **Independent examiner’s report to the board of trustees of Northchurch Community Centre** 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Northchurch Community Centre (charity number 1180455) for the year ended 31 March 2021 set out on pages 7 to 14. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The Charity's Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act). The Charity’s Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act and that an independent examination is needed. 

It is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act; 

- to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act; and, 

- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

This report, including my statement, has been prepared for and only for the Charity’s Trustees as a body. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the Charity’s Trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an independent examiner’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charity and the Charity’s Trustees as a body for my examination work, for this report, or for the statements I have made. 

## **Basis of independent examiner’s statement** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with general directions given by the Charity Commission.  An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records.  It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the Trustees concerning any such matters. 

## **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 Charity 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.

The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

**Notes to the financial statements** 

**Northchurch Community Centre** Annual report and financial statements Year ended 31 March 2021 

## **Notes to the financial statements** 

## **1. Accounting policies** 

## **Basis of preparation of the financial statements** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with ‘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) second edition (effective 1 January 2019)’, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011. 

The effect of any event relating to the period ended 31 March 2021, which occurred before the date of approval of the financial statements by the Board of Trustees has been included in the financial statements to the extent required to show a true and fair view of the state of affairs at 31 March 2021 and the results for the year ended on that date. 

The functional currency of the charity is sterling. 

The amounts in the financial statements are rounded to the nearest pound. 

Under the exemption available to smaller charities the Board of Trustees has chosen not to include a Statement of Cash Flows within the financial statements. 

particular purposes. The cost of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in note 9 of the financial statements. 

## **Income** 

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance indicators attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount can be measured reliably. 

Donations are recognised in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when entitled, receipt is probable and when the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. Gift aid receivable is included when claimable. 

Grant income is credited to the Statement of Financial Activities when received or receivable whichever is earlier, unless the grant relates to a future period, in which case it is deferred. 

Income from charitable activities, including rental income, is credited to the Statement of Financial Activities when received or receivable whichever is earlier, unless it relates to a specific future period or event, in which case it is deferred. 

## **Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT** 

## **Going concern** 

The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis as the Board of Trustees is confident that future reserves and future income is more than sufficient to meet current commitments. There are no material uncertainties that impact this assessment, and the ongoing global COVID-19 pandemic has had no material impact on this assessment 

## **Legal status** 

Northchurch Community Centre is a charitable incorporated organisation registered in England and Wales and meets the definition of a public benefit entity. In the event of the Charity being wound up, the trustees of the Charity hold no liability. The registered address is Northchurch Social Centre, Bell Lane, Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire, HP4 3RD. 

## **Fund Accounting** 

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes. 

Restricted funds are funds that are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or that have been raised by the Charity for 

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been included under expense categories that aggregate all costs for allocation to activities. 

Indirect costs, including governance costs, which cannot be directly attributed to activities, are allocated directly to charitable activities as any fundraising costs are immaterial. A breakdown of these expenses is outlined in note 4 of the financial statements. 

Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the category of expenditure for which it was incurred. 

## **Tangible fixed assets and depreciation** 

Fixed assets related to the freehold land (excluding investments) are stated at cost. Depreciation is not provided on the land as useful life of the land is deemed to be indefinite. Small items of equipment are written of to the Statement of Financial Activities in the year of purchase. 

## **Cash at bank and in hand** 

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash in hand, deposits with banks and funds that are readily convertible into cash at, or close to, their carrying values, but are not held for investment purposes.

**Notes to the financial statements** 

**Northchurch Community Centre** Annual report and financial statements Year ended 31 March 2021 

## **Debtors and prepayments** 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount is applied. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. 

## **Creditors and accruals** 

Creditors are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party, and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. 

## **Financial instruments** 

## **Critical estimates and judgements** 

In preparing financial statements it is necessary to make certain judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts recognised in the financial statements. The treatment of tangible fixed assets is sensitive to changes in useful economic lives and residual values of assets. These are reassessed annually. 

In the view of the Trustees in applying the accounting policies adopted, no judgements were required that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements nor do any estimates or assumptions made carry a significant risk of material adjustment in the next financial year. 

Basic financial instruments are measured at amortised cost other than investments which are measured at fair value.

## **Designated funds** 

Previously the Trustees had set aside amounts for major repairs and equipment renewals, however following the change in requirements in the new SORP, specifically the requirement to specify a time period in which the funds would be used, it was deemed appropriate to transfer these funds back to general funds during the prior year. 

## **Endowment funds** 

The capital fund of the DM Webb fund is held in reserve and may only be utilised should the trustees agree that major structural additions to the property are necessary to meet the Charities objectives. Any investment income not spent in the year must be held in a restricted reserve for use on future redecoration/refurbishment. 

The building fund represents the value of the freehold land.
