STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing Document and Constitution

Yeovil Day Centre Society is a registered charity in England and Wales, charity number 258663. The charity’s principal office is 20 South Street, Yeovil, Somerset, BA20 1QE. It is governed by its Constitution dated 13 October 1969.

OBJECTS AND ACTIVITIES

Charity objects

The objects of the charity are to improve the conditions of life of the aged and disabled persons resident in the Borough of Yeovil and its neighbourhood and for this purpose to provide a centre at which recreations and catering facilities may be made available.

In practice this is carried out through the operation of Yeovil Day Centre which provides hot meals and activities for those who need it.

The Day Centre opened its doors on 1 June 1970. In 1975, an appeal fund was set up to finance the extension to the building, which was completed and opened in 1976. The extension together with the building (the freehold of which is now owned by the Society) form the integrated block from which the Centre now operates.

Yeovil Day Centre Society Trustees’ Report For the Year Ended 31 March 2023

Public Benefit

The Trustees have had regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit. Public benefit is carried out through the activity that the charity undertakes.

ACHEIVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

Review of activities

The Day Centre provides a two course hot meal at a minimum cost to each member based on freshly prepared and cooked local ingredients.

The Day Centre previously provided day care to its members together with various activities which have developed a community in which those attending have an active social life. Some of the members were referred to give their home carers a break. The centre has sadly been closed to the members since March 2020 to prevent the risks associated with the Covid 19 pandemic.

The society holds a range of functions throughout the year, attended by various guests. The university of the 3rd Age still hire rooms having only restarted their meetings since July 2021. The loss of this rental income has created a gap of £10,000 to our earnings.

The charity still prepares and supplies a meal service to Yeovil Community Meals, who collect the prepared food from the centre and deliver to the elderly and infirm.

The charity would be unable to deliver meals at the cost that is provided without the support of some local supermarkets, for which we are extremely grateful. Particular thanks go to Marks & Spencer, Nandos, Morrisons and Lidl in Yeovil. Their support is enabling the charity to begin to provide food packages to meal users and the local homeless community. Our evening meal provision to the homeless was suspended in March 2020 and has yet to start during the ongoing pandemic concerns.

The Trustees would also like to thank the organisations that continue to make annual donations which has effectively created the surplus seen this year. Without their support we would be faced we increasing costs to our service users which would create financial challenges to our elderly users.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Financial Position

Incoming resources in the year were £94,036 (2022: £94,006).

A surplus of £1,415 was made in the year (2022: £6,739). At the balance sheet date total unrestricted reserves were £351,745 (2022: £350,330).

The charity maintains a cash balance of £247,458 (2022: £245,805) and has net current assets of £248,747 (2022: £247,125). Total net assets are £351,745 (2022: £350,330).

Reserves

The charity’s free reserves at the year end totalled £238,747. These reserves are held to meet the future demands of the charity’s services and to improve and expand those services within Somerset. The Trustees have designated £10,000 for replacement and development and it is anticipated that this will be used within the next few years.

Yeovil Day Centre Society Trustees’ Report For the Year Ended 31 March 2023

COVID-19

The centre has remained closed to members meals since March 2020. This has had a negative impact on the centre’s rental and letting income during 2021-22 and 2022-23. The Trustees decided that they had to close the front door to control the number of people entering as this would have created a risk to the external meals service through Yeovil Community Meals service. The YCMS meal service is now our largest client and therefore the delivery of this service was considered critical to the future of the service users. As a result the centre has only been open to members of staff and volunteers, all of whom have been through a Covid 19 induction. The members of U3A are now able to access our building via a separate access to drivers and staff and now have access to our upstairs meeting rooms.

The number of daily meals initially increased by 45% after February 2020 but have now settled down to an acceptable level to our staff resources. The loss of the rental income continues to have an impact on the centre as we continue through the post pandemic period and we are pleased that we have reserves to weather the storm.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEE’S RESPONSIBILITIES

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards including Financial Reporting Standard 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

The law applicable to charities in England & Wales 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 income and expenditure of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

The trustees are responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which 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 Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed/constitution. 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.

Yeovil Day Centre Society Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 March 2023

1 Accounting Policies

1.1

General information and basis of accounting

The Yeovil Day Centre Society is an unincorporated charity governed by its Constitution. The address of the principal office is given on page 1. The nature of the charity’s operations and its principal activities are set out in the Trustees report on pages 2-4.

The financial statements have been prepared in £ sterling on the historical cost basis and 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) (effective 1 January 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)) and the Charities Act 2011.

The charity 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.

1.2

Income

All income is included in the statement of financial activities when the charity is entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income.

Income from grants and donations is recognised at the point at which the amount is unconditionally due.

Income from charitable activities relates to the sale of meals and day centre fees and is recognised when the service is delivered.

Income from other trading activities is primarily rental income and is recognised at the date of supply.

1.3

Donated services

In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), any unpaid general volunteer time is not recognised in the financial statements.

1.4

Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred.

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its charitable activities and services. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and costs of an indirect nature which are necessary to support them.

1.5

Stock

Stock is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.

1.6 Depreciation

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

Land and buildings - No depreciation as the building is maintained in a good state of repair Fixtures, fitting and equipment - 25% written down value

Yeovil Day Centre Society Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 March 2023

1.7 Creditors

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 recognised at their settlement amount.

1.8 Taxation

The Yeovil Day Centre Society is a registered charity and is therefore not liable to taxation to the extent that its income and gains are applicable to charitable purposes only. Value added tax is not recoverable and is therefore included in the relevant costs in the Statement of Financial Activities.

1.9 Fund accounting

General funds are unrestricted funds receivable or generated for the objects of the charity without further specified purpose and are available as general funds.

Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the Trustees for particular purposes.

Restricted funds are to be used for specific purposes as laid down by the donor. Expenditure which meets this criterion is charged to the fund, together with a fair allocation of management and support costs as appropriate.

1.10 Financial instruments

The charity only holds basic financial instruments as defined in FRS 102. The financial assets and financial liabilities of the charity and their measurement basis are as follows:

Financial assets – trade and other debtors are basic financial instruments and are debt instruments measured at amortised cost.

Cash at bank – is classified as a basic financial instrument and is measured at face value. Financial liabilities – trade creditors, accruals and other creditors are basic financial instruments and are measured at amortised cost. Taxation and social security are not included in the financial instruments disclosure definition. Deferred income is not deemed to be a financial liability, as the cash settlement has already taken place and there is an obligation to deliver services rather than cash or another financial instrument.

1.11 Going Concern

The Trustees have reviewed the position of the charity and considered events during the year and since the year end that may have an impact on the charity’s ability to continue to operate. No such events have been identified and there are no material uncertainties about the charity’s ability to continue. As such, the accounts have been prepared on the basis that the charity is a going concern.
