## **TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
The Trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the Charity for the year 1 April 2024 to 31 March 2025.
## **Objectives and activities**
## **a. Policies and objectives**
The Charity exists to preserve, protect, and improve the natural environment for the public benefit, by promoting and supporting the creation and maintenance of green spaces through both example and education.
In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance 'Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'.
## **b. Strategies for achieving objectives**
Funds are raised primarily via revenue from the in-house café, supplemented by income derived from both the hire of on-site conferencing facilities, and renting office space to the education franchise, Kumon. Additional funds are provided by the building’s lease holder, Great Chart with Singleton Parish Council (GCSPC). Some further income is derived from fund-raising events such as quiz nights. Staff, both employed and volunteer, also play a key role in enabling the charity to meet its objectives. The role of our Education Officer continues to enhance our public engagement and extend our reach
## **c. Activities undertaken to achieve objectives**
The Singleton Environment Centre is owned by the local authority, Ashford Borough Council, leased by the local parish council, Great Chart with Singleton Parish Council, and run by an independent registered charity, Singleton Spaces.
The charity has undertaken an extensive range of educational activities focused mainly on children but also included events for adults directed towards fund-raising. As mentioned, the café (Footprints) remains our main source of income.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
## **Achievements and performance**
## **a. Main achievements of the Charity**
Our proudest boast this year is to have engaged with 3278 children, of all ages, across the range of activities provided.
## School and Group Visits
All school educational visits and group visits continue to be bespoke to each group’s learning objectives and aims for the trip. They include practical learning with the children experiencing first hand nature related learning opportunities including pond dipping, scavenger hunts, factual learning, planting, nature arts and crafts, den building, team games and site exploration.
Seven schools returned following visits in previous academic years, and five schools visited for the first time. We also ran workshops within two schools this year for the first time. The workshops to Early Years Foundation Stage and Key Stage One were on Habitats and how animals have adapted for the habitat they live in. The workshops to Key Stage Two were on Climate Change. In total 1549 pupils were taught by the Education Team this academic year. 2 charities returned this summer for activity days run at the centre by our Education Officer.
## Educational Events
Our pre-school nature group, Buggin’ About, runs every Friday in term time. The group is aimed at children aged 2.5 years +. Each week has a different theme to introduce children to a wide range of nature topics. Activities include nature crafts, mud kitchen, water play, firepit, exploration, pond dipping, scavenger hunts and bug hunts. Numbers each week have normally been fully booked at sixteen children.
In total the Education Team has hosted 1169 participants over 47 events. We have also run events at the McArthur Glen Ashford Designer Outlet as part of our charity of the year partnership. We also ran a stall with activities at the Great Chart with Singleton Parish Council’s annual Big Lunch event as part of our ongoing partnership.
Although our educational offering is primarily aimed at the younger generation, our series of ‘prosecco with’ events, and our seniors club have broadened the appeal to older age groups, along with the activities of the Repair Café, Ashford, which has been more fully integrated into the Centre.
## **b. Factors relevant to achieve objectives**
We have been fortunate in being able to develop the facilities within the Centre, changing the lighting to LED and installing battery storage for electricity produced by our solar panels. Future plans include changing the boiler for a heat pump, and the addition of a small wind generator.
A sponsored walk up Snowdon generated more than £5,000 and becoming the charity of the year for the local McArthur Glen Designer Outlet will generate further income.
In closing I would like to thank all staff, volunteers and trustees for their considerable hard work in making the Singleton Environment Centre the success it is!

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
## **Financial review**
## **a. Going concern**
After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies.
## **b. Reserves policy**
The Charity aims to retain reserves equivalent to three months operating costs. A start has been made in establishing this reserve, and it continues to grow.
## **Structure, governance and management**
## **a. Constitution**
Singelton Spaces is a registered charity, number 1180577, and is constituted under a Trust deed dated 2 November 2018.
## **b. Methods of appointment or election of Trustees**
The management of the Charity is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected and co-opted under the terms of the Trust deed.
## **c. Related party relationships**
It should be noted that two trustees are members of GCSPC. A third trustee is employed by GCSPC. The Trustees believe these relationships are of benefit to the charity and that no trustee receives any personal benefit as a result of the relationship.

## **SINGELTON SPACES**
## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
## **Statement of Trustees' responsibilities**
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' 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 its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, 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 of the Charities SORP (FRS 102);
- make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards (FRS 102) 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 business.
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, the Charity (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 FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
## **Independent examiner's report to the Trustees of Singelton Spaces ('the Charity')**
I report to the charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 March 2025.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the Trustees of the Charity you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act').
I report in respect of my examination of the Charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
## **Independent examiner's statement**
Since the Charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies.
Your attention is drawn to the fact that the Charity has prepared the accounts in accordance with 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) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has been withdrawn.
I understand that this has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.
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 Charity as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or
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.
This report is made solely to the Charity's Trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. 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 work or for this report.

**SINGELTON SPACES**
## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
## **1. General information**
Singleton Spaces is a charity registered in England and Wales under number 1180577. The principal office is Singleton Environment Centre, Wesley School Road, Ashford, Kent, TN23 5LW.
## **2. Accounting policies**
## **2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements**
The financial statements 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 January 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.
The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair' view. This departure has involved following the Charities SORP (FRS 102) published in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
Singelton Spaces meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.
## **2.2 Income**
All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
Grants are included in the Statement of financial activities on a receivable basis. The balance of income received for specific purposes but not expended during the period is shown in the relevant funds on the Balance sheet. Where income is received in advance of entitlement of receipt, its recognition is deferred and included in creditors as deferred income. Where entitlement occurs before income is received, the income is accrued.
## **2.3 Expenditure**
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, 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 is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Charity's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.
All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.

**SINGELTON SPACES**
## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
## **2. Accounting policies (continued)**
## **2.4 Government grants**
Government grants relating to tangible fixed assets are treated as deferred income and released to the Statement of financial activities over the expected useful lives of the assets concerned. Other grants are credited to the Statement of financial activities as the related expenditure is incurred.
## **2.5 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation**
Tangible fixed assets costing £NIL or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.
Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
|Plant and machinery|-|15%|
|---|---|---|
|Fixtures and fittings|-|15%|
|Computer equipment|-|25%|
## **2.6 Stocks**
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slow-moving stocks. Cost includes all direct costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.
## **2.7 Debtors**
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
## **2.8 Cash at bank and in hand**
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
## **2.9 Liabilities and provisions**
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.
Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.
Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Statement of financial activities as a finance cost.

**SINGELTON SPACES**
## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025**
## **2. Accounting policies (continued)**
## **2.10 Financial instruments**
The Charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
## **2.11 Pensions**
The Charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the Charity to the fund in respect of the year.
## **2.12 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 which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Charity for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
