Trustees’ annual report for the year ended 30 September 2025

The trustees present their report and the unaudited financial statements for the year ended 30 September 2025.

Reference and administrative information set out on page 1 forms part of this report. The financial statements comply with current statutory requirements, the memorandum and articles of association and the Statement of Recommended Practice - Accounting and Reporting by Charities: SORP applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with FRS 102.

Objectives and activities

The purpose of the charity is to deliver the following:

Although Lifecentre Salford is a Christian Charity, we welcome equally people of any faith or none.

Summary of the main activities:

Holiday Hunger Holiday Clubs : We have built partnerships with many different organisations to deliver vital provision for children in great need in Salford. We have also played an advocacy role in raising awareness of this need in the city. This has led to the Lifecentre playing more of a key role in providing advice and provision in the area of holiday hunger across the whole city of Salford. This year we have again been involved in coordinating the HAF work across the whole city of Salford. We ended our involvement with HAF in the winter holiday of 2024, handing the work over to a number of other agencies.

Breakfast Group : This group is a continued partnership with Willow Tree Primary School, running 5 mornings a week in term time and providing a stable, calm environment for up to 10 children to help improve their attendance, behaviour and self esteem, and providing them with wholesome breakfast each day.

Paired Up Reading : A project linking children in local schools with older people living in sheltered housing projects where the older people help the children to read.

Moving On Well : Helping children from year 6 in the big move from Primary to High School. We have been delivering face to face lessons, and this year have expanded our work and have begun work to develop a quality mark in this area, in partnership with the University of Manchester and other schools and agencies.

JAM Club/ Faith in Schools : Weekly clubs in St Luke’s C of E, providing fun and games and a Christian message for the children who attend.

We Run Salford : Focussed on encouraging local women to run and get fit. Boosting self-esteem and promoting a healthy lifestyle.

Salford Scorpions and SS Cadets : Weekly free training sessions for adults and children in Flag American Football. Including a men’s team in the national league and 3 youth teams in the national league.

Theraplay : A project working alongside families which is receiving very positive feedback from the families involved.

Lifecentre Salford Trustees’ annual report for the year ended 30 September 2025

Youff : A Thursday night club for young people of high school age with fun activities, food and Christian input. This year the work has grown and we have started new groups helping the young people to grow in their faith. We have also trained a team of mentors to provide individual mentoring sessions for young people ages 11-16.

Public benefit statement

In the projects listed above, we have made a significant difference this year in the lives of hundreds of children, young people and families across Salford, providing material support in terms of food, therapeutic support, pastoral encouragement, physical fitness, emotional and spiritual help, and creating communities in which people can thrive and grow as good citizens.

Lifecentre Salford trustees have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and in planning its future activities. In particular, the trustees have considered how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives that have been set. The trustees review the aims, objectives and activities of the charity each year which helps the trustees ensure the charity's aims, objectives and activities remained focused on its stated purposes.

Strategic Report

Achievements and performance

All the groups listed in this report have continued to thrive this year. We are delighted with the impact of the holiday hunger work on the lives of hundreds of children but also on the continued importance placed on this work by other agencies. This has been reflected in the HAF work continuing beyond our involvement with them. This has been a significant work for the Lifecentre and we are pleased with what has been achieved, and its lasting impact on the city. We are encouraged by the growth of the Paired-Up Reading project. Our Moving on Well initiative has seen significant progress in the development of the Quality Mark. The Salford Scorpions continues to expand with new people and teams forming and opportunities to reach even more people.

Financial review (including reserves policy)

At the end of the reporting period Lifecentre Salford had total funds of £170,396 (2024: £249,032) consisting of unrestricted funds of £118,132 (2024: £108,548), and restricted funds of £52,264 (2024: £140,484). Cash reserves at bank were £154,717 (2024: £250,564). There are no immediate concerns about the charity’s finances. During the year the charity received unrestricted income of £57,095 (2024: £82,002) and restricted income of £127,877 (2024: £261,602). Expenditure for the year from unrestricted funds was £39,468 (2024: £42,450) and from restricted funds £224,101 (2024: £254,485).

Principal funding sources

We extend our sincere appreciation to all supporters whose funding has enabled us to sustain our projects over the past year. We would like to acknowledge, in particular, the generous contributions of the following organisations:

We also extend our heartfelt thanks to all our regular donors, whose continued commitment continues to play a crucial role in enabling our work.

We would also like to acknowledge our gratitude to Salford City Council and the Department for Education for their financial support in enabling our Holiday clubs for the past four years, it has been a privilege to undertake this work and to support families in our Salford community.

Plans for future periods

To continue to grow and develop the work in response to the needs of our community here in Salford. We expect all current projects to continue in the coming year. In October 2025 we will launch a Quality Mark for High Schools to support best practice in Year 6 - Year 7 transition.

The trustees made the decision to no longer deliver the Holiday Activities Fund to focus on other Lifecentre projects. This will result in a significant reduction in income in 2025-26 from the previous three years. Holiday Activities were delivered until January 2025.

After seeking the views of local people we are planning to create a new Family Worker role to expand our work with local families, providing much-needed support for parents and carers in addition to our work with children and young people.

Structure, governance and management

Lifecentre Salford was registered as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) with the Charity Commission on 18 August 2023. The charity was established under a constitution which established the objects and powers of the charity and its governance.

Our General Manager Beth Myring is accountable in her work to the team of trustees and meets with a nominated trustee for monthly line management. The trustees delegate the day-to-day running of the Lifecentre to Beth and her team. There is a finance committee made up of 2 trustees and one advisor who decide each year on pay scales and any increases that may be necessary.

All trustees give their time voluntarily and receive no benefits from the charity. No expenses were reclaimed from the charity during the period. Trustees are recruited based on skills and are selected based on experience and expertise they have which will help to deliver the aims of Lifecentre Salford. New Trustees are recruited and appointed by existing ones.

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that 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 SORP. 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.

Lifecentre Salford Independent examiner’s report to the trustees For the year ended 30 September 2025

I report on the accounts of the charity for the period ending 30 September 2025 set out on pages 7 to 21.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Charities Act”) and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to:

Basis of independent examiner’s statement

My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent examiner’s statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:

  1. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements:

  2. to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and

  3. to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act have not been met; or

  4. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Notes to the accounts for the year ended 30 September 2025 (continued)

d Income

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Income from government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.

Income received in advance of a provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met.

e Donated services and facilities

Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), general volunteer time is not recognised; refer to the trustees’ annual report for more information about their contribution.

On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.

f Interest receivable

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the Bank.

g Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of charity.

Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose.

Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the charity’s work or for specific projects being undertaken by the charity.

h Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

i Allocation of support costs

Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs consist of governance costs which are wholly attributable to charitable activities.

j Tangible Fixed Assets

Individual fixed assets costing £1,000 or more are capitalised at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful economic lives on a straight line basis:

Fixtures and fittings 10%

k Operating leases

Operating leases are leases in which the title to the assets, and the risks and rewards of ownership, remain with the lessor. Rental charges are charged on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

l Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

m Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and cash 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.

n Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions 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 and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

o 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.

p Pensions

Employees of the charity are entitled to join a defined contribution scheme. The charity’s contribution is restricted to the contributions disclosed in note 9. There were outstanding contributions of £196 (2024: £153) at the year end which were paid over after the year end.
