## **Trustees Report**
When AIMCommunity launched as a new charity in 2020, one of our first priorities was to provide enough reserve funding to allow for dissolution of the charity, calculated as 3 months salaries and running costs with the goal to have this in place by the end of 2 completed years of operation. This was subsequently adjusted to allow for 4 months of salaries and running costs in August 2022.
At the end of the second completed financial year the charity held funds of £123,017 representing over 100% of the target dissolution fund as proposed.
In addition to the Reserve Funds, the charity held £38,492 in Restricted Income from Grant Funding.
## **PROGRAMME REPORTS**
## **AIM Arts Academy**
Aim Arts Academy finished the 2022-2023 year very strong. We had a 100% pass rate for all students that enrolled in their level 2 and level 3 course work. We had a 100% GCSE sit rate which is a major success being we work with very vulnerable students dealing with significant anxiety.
We increased our offer of student support to include exercise and wider scope of life skills for students to a great success.
## _Staffing_
We have a full teaching staff and 18 students enrolled. Several of which have additional learning needs and have EHCPs. We are providing full time and part time educational courses with wrap around student pastoral support. This year we have the addition of a Learning Support Specialist on staff and 2 Occupational Therapist.
Our courses are Functional Skills Maths & English, GCSE Maths, GCSE English. Level 2, Level 3 Creative Digital Media Qualifications. Level 2, Level 3 Music Practitioners Qualifications.
## **Starfish Mentoring**
Starfish Mentoring is a programme that supports young people within the ages of 8 - 25 with achieving their goals through the ASPACE model (Abilities and Skills, Self-Esteem and Confidence, Peer Relationships, Adult and Family Relationships, Communication, Education and Employment)
Starfish Mentoring provides small group mentoring as well as 1:1 work with young people. Starfish Group Mentoring.
During the 2022/2023 financial year, Starfish Group Mentoring has worked with 16 young people between the ages of 8 - 17. This includes 7 females and 10 males.
Young people were based mainly in the Bournemouth and Poole areas. The breakdown of this was 9 young people from the area of Poole, 6 young people from the area of Bournemouth and 1 young person from the area of Ferndown.

## **Trustees Report**
## **Starfish Plus Mentoring**
Starfish plus is mentoring delivered on a 1:1 basis. During the 2022/2023 financial year, Starfish Plus worked directly with 16 young people between the ages of 11 - 21. This includes 7 males and 9 females. One young person out of the 9 females wanted to be identified as a female (the initial referral had this young person listed as male)
Young people were mainly based in the Poole and Bournemouth areas. The breakdown of this was 5 people from Poole, 10 young people from Bournemouth and 1 young person from Christchurch.
## _Staffing_
During the 2022/2023 financial year, Starfish had 5 paid staff, 3 volunteers, 3 work experience workers and 1 college placement student. Each full time staff member has undergone safeguarding training, mentoring inductions and CPD (continued professional development) training. Challenges
One of the challenges during this financial year has been the loss of funding of BCPCouncil regarding the Starfish Group sessions. In December 2022, the contract funding had come to an end, meaning that the amount of referrals that Starfish received was reduced. This meant that provision for young people was no longer available through BCPCouncil however individuals could continue to receive support on a case by case basis.
Another challenge has been some of the Starfish Mentoring team have moved on to other jobs. This means the amount of young people that we can potentially work with has been reduced. We have plans in place to recruit further staff.
## **Creative Mentoring**
Creative Mentoring is a 1:1 and group based project supporting young people in the Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch area and beyond to give space and opportunity for those participating to develop their sense of self alongside exploring and developing their creative talents.
## _Young People_
Between September 2022 & August 2023 we have supported 14 young people across our targeted 1:1 mentoring and group work programmes.
Breakdown of referral and funding streams: ●BCP/ Art Brokerage/ Dorset CC - 5 young people
●School/ Other - 1 young person
- ●Self referral/ funded - 8 young people
## _Group Projects_
Creative Mentoring has delivered two group projects throughout 2022/2023. Both of which have been designed to enable development of peer to peer relationships through creativity. They are run termly and currently cater for a maximum of 6 young people. These group sessions are often a great complement to the

## **Trustees Report**
## ●C4
C4 (Community & Camaraderie Creative Club)delivered three terms worth of action packed sessions where young people have explored different creative mediums. This has included graffiti style art, logo design, murder mystery detective skills, digital art and improv amongst other things. An interesting development has been young people from C4 engaging in 1:1 Creative Mentoring Sessions.
## ●JamSpace
Fridays at 4pm is the place to be for our young people who like to rock out and turn the volume high! Numbers this year have been steady with minimal advertising and Hagop and Guy have done a great job of welcoming young people who are used to being individual musicians and beginning the journey of jamming and playing as a collective. Again some young people from this project progressed into 1:1 Creative Mentoring sessions also.
## _Staffing_
Over the year 2022/2023 our staffing team has grown and we have been delighted to welcome Hagop and Phil, both of whom bring a wealth of creative experience and expertise alongside Youth Work delivery. Both of whom are also working for AAA alongside Creative Mentoring.
## **Plans for future periods**
‘Creating ASPACE for young people to flourish and succeed’
In the next academic year we will work towards 5 identified goals:
Broaden our offer for young people and income sources Explore opportunities for geographical growth Enhance staff support and development Boost attendance and engagement of young people within programmes Develop strategies for enhancing parental connections
Overall these five goals will enable us to connect our provision to more young people across BCP, Dorset and the South West of England.
We continue to work with other organisations and to build our network of schools and families to provide support for their young people.
We will be looking to further develop the staff team including the recruitment of 2 Occupational Therapists to both work alongside our current provision and explore opportunities for further outreach.
We aim to recruit and train more volunteers to support young people through both programmes and our Youth Work Training provision.
We continue use of AIM Central while looking to secure a long-term agreement on the building and have

## **Going concern**
From an operational perspective, AIMCommunity has managed the challenges of the early years of being a Charity positively and efficiently, adapting to an ever-changing working environment and implementing and maintaining safety measures in line with Government guidance.
AIM Community's third full year of operation as an independent charity has been financially solid. Management and trustees continue to consider opportunities to develop services, attract sponsorships and donations and grow sustainably in accordance with the charity's ethos and values.
On this basis, the trustees consider the charity a going concern.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of AIMCommunity Limited**
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 August 2023.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity's 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 AIMCommunity Limited 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 charity'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:
accounting records were not kept in respect of AIMCommunity Limited as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
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
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

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 August 2023**
## **Charity status**
The charity is limited by guarantee, incorporated in England & Wales, and consequently does not have share capital. Each of the trustees is liable to contribute an amount not exceeding £1 towards the assets of the charity in the event of liquidation.
The address of its registered office is: AIMCentral East Howe Youth Centre Kinson Road Bournemouth Dorset BH10 5HD
These financial statements were authorised for issue by the trustees on 27/06/2024.
## **Accounting policies**
## **Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates**
The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated.
## **Statement of compliance**
The financial statements have been prepared 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)) (issued in October 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
## **Basis of preparation**
AIMCommunity Limited 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 notes.
## **Going concern**
The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern nor any significant areas of uncertainty that affect the carrying value of assets held by the charity.
## **Exemption from preparing a cash flow statement**
The charity opted to early adopt Bulletin 1 published on 2 February 2016 and have therefore not included a cash flow statement in these financial statements.
## **Income and endowments**
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 the income receivable can be measured reliably.
Page 10
**AIMCommunity Limited**
## **known as Aim Arts Academy, Creative Me Mentoring and Starfish Mentoring**
## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 August 2023**
## _**Donations and legacies**_
Donations are recognised when the charity has been notified in writing of both the amount and settlement date. In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of performance by the charity before the charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the charity and it is probable that these conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period.
## _**Grants receivable**_
Grants are recognised when the charity has an entitlement to the funds and any conditions linked to the grants have been met. Where performance conditions are attached to the grant and are yet to be met, the income is recognised as a liability and included on the balance sheet as deferred income to be released.
## _**Deferred income**_
Deferred income represents amounts received for future periods and is released to incoming resources in the period for which it has been received. Such income is only deferred when:
The donor specifies that the grant or donation must only be used in future accounting periods; or The donor has imposed conditions which must be met before the charity has unconditional entitlement.
## _**Gifts in kind**_
Gifts in kind are recognised in different ways dependent on how they are used by the charity:
Those donated for resale produce income when they are sold. They are valued at the amount actually realised. Those donated for onward transmission to beneficiaries are included in the Statement of Financial Activities as incoming resources and resources expended when they are distributed. They are valued at the amount the charity would have had to pay to acquire them.
Those donated for use by the charity itself are included when receivable. They are valued at the amount the charity would have had to pay to acquire them.
## **Expenditure**
All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset's use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs. All resources expended are inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.
## _**Charitable activities**_
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.
## **Support costs**
Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, for example, allocating property costs by floor areas, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage.
Page 11
## **AIMCommunity Limited**
## **known as Aim Arts Academy, Creative Me Mentoring and Starfish Mentoring**
## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 August 2023**
## **Governance costs**
These include the costs attributable to the charity's compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements, including audit, management and trustees's meetings and reimbursed expenses.
## **Government grants**
Government grants are recognised based on the accrual model and are measured at the fair value of the asset received or receivable. Grants are classified as relating either to revenue or to assets. Grants relating to revenue are recognised in income over the period in which the related costs are recognised. Grants relating to assets are recognised over the expected useful life of the asset. Where part of a grant relating to an asset is deferred, it is recognised as deferred income.
## **Irrecoverable VAT**
Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the category of resources expended for which it was incurred.
## **Taxation**
The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph I Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 20 IO and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation t_ax.purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.
## **Tangible fixed assets**
Individual fixed assets costing £150 or more are initially recorded at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses.
## **Depreciation and amortisation**
Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows:
## **Asset class**
Plant and machinery Office equipment **Trade debtors**
## **Depreciation method and rate**
25% reducing balance 25% reducing balance
Trade debtors are amounts due from our income providers to support our normal charitable activities. These debtors are recognised at the transaction value. A provision for the impairment of debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the charity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables.
## **Cash and cash equivalents**
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 August 2023**
## **Trade creditors**
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the charity does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as noncurrent liabilities.
Trade creditors are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
## **Fund structure**
Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity.
## **Pensions and other post retirement obligations**
The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities when they are due. If contribution payments exceed the contribution due for service, the excess is recognised as a prepayment.
## **Financial instruments**
Financial assets and liabilities are recognised when the charity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of an instrument, and are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into.
## _**Recognition and measurement**_
All financial assets and liabilities are measured at transaction price (including transaction costs). They are derecognised
