Treasurers report (CIO) 2021-2022

Summary

The pre-school continued to operate financially under the old charity status until April when financial transfer started. Hence accounts continue to reflect both charities.

The HSBC accounts were transferred to the Barclays accounts of the CIO over the summer term with the last transfer in August.

The transfer and closure of the accounts is complete but outside the window of the annual reports.

Largest capital expense in the year was the replacement to the gazebo after the first was damaged in a storm. It’s hoped that a stronger structure can be coupled with firmer mounting. A stronger, more expensive model was procured and retention is being sourced. Final cost will be close to £1000

Changes to addresses from the Jubilee hall left a number of outstanding debts for training to be paid to the council, a significant one-off charge of £738

A transition to monthly billing has greatly aided cash flow and made it easier to identify if a family is struggling with payments and intervene as required.

The pre-school has attempted to use a single software system for attendance, records finance and similar during the summer term after some testing in 2021. The complications of using the software within the setting and without dedicated administration has proved too challenging. Invoicing for the July was particularly complicated, with £3000 owing from the term at present.

The system will no longer be used for invoicing going forward from the start of the summer term.

We have opened a credit card account to gain better visibility of spending and enable Lucy to make purchases without personal exposure, we aim to add to the card holders to aid the management.

The structure of the rental agreement with the school means that no charges for energy should be passed on. The current contract ends May 2024.

The pre-school continues to be very busy reaching capacity on most sessions/days. Accounts are in a strong position reflecting the success of the pre-school operating daily and at high attendance. This reflects in a very significant increase in net income and will give the incoming committee options. The aim of the charity isn’t to build a profit but needs to retain a buffer for example to cover redundancy payments if it were to close.

We have delayed any increase in charges to parents, splitting from the council rate from April to keep down costs to families.
