Bromham Community Hub
Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 30 April 2025
The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30 April 2025. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES Objectives and aims
The charity's objects are:
To further or benefit the residents of Bromham in the county of Wiltshire and the neighbourhood, without distinction of sex, sexual orientation, race or of political, religious or other opinions by associating together the said residents and the local authorities, voluntary and other organisations in a common effort to advance education and to provide facilities in the interests of social welfare for recreation and leisure time occupation with the objective of improving the conditions of life for the residents.
Significant activities
The principal activities during the year were focussed on two outcomes - securing the necessary funding package that would enable us to sign the contract for the construction of a new building to replace the building destroyed by fire in June 2021, and once construction had commenced, to continue fundraising to cover the costs of all the fixtures and fittings that we would need to make the building operational.
Public benefit
As trustees, we are aware of the guidance issued by the Charity Commission regarding public benefit, and we have taken it into account when making any decisions to which the guidance is relevant. The trustees consider that they have acted in the public benefit.
Volunteers
During the year, substantial help was received from volunteers in the community who had the many specific skill sets required - for example to successfully submit large grant applications, project manage the construction, work with the architects.
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
The funding package of £1.4m required to be able to sign the construction contract was successfully put together by September 2024 and construction started on site on September 23rd. Progress on the construction project has been on track for completion and handover in early July 2025 and has remained within budget. The target is to open the building to the community at the start of September 2025.

Bromham Community Hub
Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 30 April 2025
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial position
At 30 April 2025 the charity held total funds of £1,468,710 of which £1,030,785 are held as fixed assets. All funds are held as restricted funds relating to the construction of the Community Hub.
Principal risks and uncertainties
The uncertainty is the quantity of bookings of the various spaces, in the Community Hub. The customer popularity generated by the café and attendance at fundraising events intended to generate income for the running of the building and the charity expenses are the principal risks and uncertainties. However the risk mitigation strategy which includes marketing and customer relations focusses on these risks with the intention of managing and eliminating them.
Principal funding sources
The principal sources of funding during the first half of the period were successful large grant applications. Local fundraising, for example Buy a Brick, the Bromham Carnival and many smaller events also raised funds towards fixtures and fittings. This local fundraising continues alongside applications for smaller grants to cover specific areas of fixtures and fittings.
Reserves policy
In the first year the policy is agreed to hold the 2.5% construction contract retention capital monies in a 1 year fixed term account to ensure the money is available when required.
The trustees have agreed to set aside £20,000 from donated funds to ensure there is a reserve to be drawn upon should revenue expenditure exceed income in the initial year.
Going concern
The Trustees assess whether the use of going concern in preparing the financial statements is appropriate i.e. whether there are any material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The Trustees make this assessment in respect of a period of at least one year from the date of authorisation for issue of the financial statements and have concluded that the charity has adequate resources to open the Community Hub in September 2025 and continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. In making this assessment, the Trustees have reviewed the balance sheet, the likely future cash flows of the charity and have considered the funds available at this point in time.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document
The charity is controlled by its governing document. The charity is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) registered 12th April 2023.
Recruitment and appointment of new trustees
The constitution and Charity Commission rules, stipulate that the initial Trustees must either stand down, or put themselves up for re-election, after an initial 18-month period. The first AGM of the members of the CIO was held on October 16 2024. In accordance with the Constitution "At the first annual general meeting of the members of the CIO all the initial charity trustees shall retire from office.", and "Bromham Parish Council ("the appointing body") may appoint two charity trustees." Sue Wilkinson and Ross Phillips were unanimously re-elected as trustees. Peter Hindle and Kate White having already been nominated as trustees by Bromham Parish Council at their meeting on September 9th 2024.
Induction and training of new trustees
Prospective new Trustees will be requested to read and understand the Charities Commission guidance and requirements of Trustees before agreeing to be nominated for the role.
On appointment the new Trustees will be required to have knowledge of the Constitution document, Scheme of Delegation, Financial Procedures Policy and all other policies operable in relation to Bromham Community Hub. All Trustees will be required to sign a declaration of interest statement and acknowledge all relevant risk assessments in force.
Fundraising standard information
Bromham Community Hub does not engage a professional fundraiser to raise funds for the charity. There has been no requirement for anyone to be bound by a voluntary scheme for regulating fundraising as all fundraising has been done by applications for grants and voluntary payments onto regulated fundraising internet sites eg Local Giving and Just Giving. The charity has monitored publication of advertising for on line donations to fundraising initiatives and receives regular electronic updates on donations given on line. All monies come directly into the charity bank account from the on line platforms. All cheque and direct cash donations are recorded as payments into the bank.
No complaints have been received in relation to fundraising activities or the individuals carrying out fundraising activities for Bromham Community Hub.
There is a policy of no pressurised sales techniques, no door to door sales or other individual contact activities. All fundraising is done openly within the public domain. Pressure on individuals is unacceptable and forbidden.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES
The trustees are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees 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 and Wales, the Charities Act 2011, Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed 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 the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charity for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards 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 proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to 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.

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Trustees of Bromham Community Hub
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Bromham Community Hub (the 'charity') for the year ended 30 April 2025 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Cash Flow Statement and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charity's affairs as at 30 April 2025 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other information
The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
the information given in the Report of the Trustees is inconsistent in any material respect with the financial statements; or
-
sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements which give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Report of the Independent Auditors to the Trustees of Bromham Community Hub
Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
We have been appointed as auditors under Section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
Based on our understanding of the charity and the construction of the community hub we identified that the principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations related to health and safety and Charity Law, and we considered the extent to which non-compliance might have a material effect on the financial statements of the charity. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements such as the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice.
We evaluated management's incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements (including the risk of override of controls) and determined that the principal risks were related to revenue recognition, management override, and potential lack of segregation of duties. Audit procedures performed by the audit engagement team included:
-
discussions with management, including consideration of known or suspected instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations and fraud;
-
understanding and review of management's internal controls designed to prevent and detect irregularities, and fraud;
-
review of the minutes of the Trustees meetings;
-
designing audit procedures to incorporate unpredictability;
-
performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that might indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud;
-
review of the financial statements disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with relevant laws and regulations discussed above;
-
enquiring of the Trustees and third-party advisors about actual and potential litigation and claims;
-
testing transactions entered into outside of the normal course of the charity's business; and
-
identifying and testing journal entries, in particular any journal entries with fraud characteristics such as journals with round numbers.
There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and the transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it. Also, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors.
Other matters which we are required to address
The comparatives are unaudited.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 30 April 2025
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
The charity is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation. The registered office address and principal activities are given in the trustees report.
2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, 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)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
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 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 on 16 July 2014 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest pound.
There are no significant areas of judgements or key sources of estimation uncertainty.
Going concern
The Trustees assess whether the use of going concern in preparing the financial statements is appropriate i.e. whether there are any material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The Trustees make this assessment in respect of a period of at least one year from the date of authorisation for issue of the financial statements and have concluded that the charity has adequate resources to open the Community Hub in September 2025 and continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. In making this assessment, the Trustees have reviewed the balance sheet, the likely future cash flows of the charity and have considered the funds available at this point in time.
Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Income from government and other grants are recognised at fair value when the charity has entitlement after any performance conditions have been met, it is probable that the income will be received, and the amount can be measured reliably. If entitlement is not met then these amounts are deferred.
Current assets
Amounts owing to the charity are shown as debtors less provisions for amounts that may prove uncollectable.
Current liabilities
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. Creditors are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
Expenditure
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, 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 accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Tangible fixed assets
Assets under construction are not depreciated until construction is complete.
