PRCC Trustees Report for the year ending 30[th] April 2021

General

Preston Road Community Centre is usually a bustling hub for the local community with groups such as the Vineyard Church, U3A, Mother and Toddlers, the Youth Groups, fitness groups, bingo, the wine circle, town twinning and many more.

Finance and staffing

The centre was run by trustees as the Preston Road Community Centre Association (Charity 269942) until 30[th] April 2021. The accounts for the association include all the income and expenditure until 30[th] April 2021. That charity was removed on 1[st] May 2021 and merged with Preston Road Community Centre (CIO). The CIO incurred no income or expenditure, and had no staff, up to 30[th] April 2021. The CIO started operating from 1[st] May 2021.

The building

VWHDC carried out a building condition survey over two years ago and produced a report showing expected costs over the next five to ten years for maintaining the building in its current condition only. That has fed into negotiations for a new lease.

Trustees will be considering enhancements like CCTV, and an improved electronic entry system to protect users; better insulation, and energy efficient lighting; and improved disabled toilets once a new lease with VWHDC is agreed.

Management

The CIO will continue to support a wide range of activities through the user groups that operate in the Community Centre. The Trustees will seek new groups and volunteers to help keep the Community Centre running smoothly as a clean, well-appointed, and comfortable place to enjoy the activities available and to hire for private functions.

Public Benefit Statement

The Community Centre will be available for hire seven days a week all the year round, to individuals and groups for activities that are consistent with the objects of the charity. Volunteers give up their time to open and close the building for private functions although most regular users have their own sets of keys. Activities are held for all age groups from parents and toddler groups, youth clubs, to groups for older people. Volunteers give many hours each week to ensure the Community Centre is available and is in good order as well as running fund raising activities. The Trustees continue to look at ways to reduce running costs whilst providing a good venue with good facilities.

Statement of Trustees Responsibilities

Law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the charity’s financial activities during the year and of its financial position at the end of the year. In preparing financial statements giving a true and fair view, the trustees are required to:

The trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy the financial position of the charity and which enable them to ascertain the financial position of the charity and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations and the provisions of the constitution of the association. 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.

On behalf of the trustees

Notes to the Accounts for the Year Ended 30[th ] April 2021

1 Accounting Policies

Basis of accounting

These accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts. They have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued on 16 July 2014 and with the Charities Act 2011.

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.

Funds Structure

Unrestricted Income funds comprise those funds which the trustees are free to use for any purpose in furtherance of the charitable objects. Unrestricted funds may include designated funds where the trustees, at their discretion, have created a fund for a specific purpose.

Restricted income funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by the donors.

The nature of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the accounts.

Fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost less residual value of each asset over its expected useful life as follows:

General Equipment 25% on cost Partitions 20% on cost Computer Equipment 33% on cost

Stock

Stocks of goods for resale are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

Incoming resources

All incoming resources are recognised once the charity has entitlement to the resources, it is certain that the resources will be received, and the monetary value of incoming resources can be measured with sufficient reliability.

Resources expended

Liabilities are recognised as resources expended as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to the expenditure. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category.

Change in basis of accounting

There has been no change to the accounting policies since last year.
