c. Objectives and activities

[Constitutional objects adopted at AGM on 26 October 2006 and approved by Charity Commission in July 2007]
Summary of activities
In planning and delivering its activities the trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission for England and Wales on public benefit. The Community Centre provides an accessible focal point for community life, supporting the health, wellbeing and social cohesion of residents across a diverse local population.
A wide range of regular activities take place at the Community Centre, including exercise and wellbeing sessions, educational and creative activities, social events and community meetings. Activities are designed to serve residents of different ages, backgrounds and levels of mobility, with particular attention to ensuring that those who may not be well served by other local provisions are able to participate.
Sessions are provided at very low cost (£1–£2) or free wherever possible to ensure that residents on limited incomes are not excluded.
The Chairperson provided a typical overview:
Weekly exercise classes such as Zumba, Tai Chi and Chair Exercise support physical health and mobility for residents with varying levels of ability. Wellbeing activities including reflexology sessions, non-contact boxing and creative drama and writing workshops run by the specialist theatre group Outside Edge support mental health, confidence and social connection.
The Centre also supports the cultural and faith life of the community. Regular bookings include Friday prayers and activities during Ramadan, while the neighbouring church, St James-the-Less, organises seasonal community events such as its annual Christmas carol visits around the estate. Children and young people benefit from a range of activities including a weekly Saturday play session for autistic children, longstanding Girl Guides meetings and holiday activity programmes delivered by EduTain in partnership with Westminster City Council and the Queen Mother Sports Centre swimming facilities.
2
Older residents are supported through regular social activities including a weekly Bingo club, outings to places such as Hampton Court Palace and the seaside, and the annual Silver Sunday celebration.
The Centre also provides a venue for community engagement and local decision-making.
Residents’ Association meetings and Repairs Group meetings are regularly hosted, enabling residents to meet with Westminster City Council officers and contractors to discuss housing and estate issues.
In addition, the Centre is used throughout the year by residents for family gatherings and community events.
Together, these activities help to reduce social isolation, encourage participation in community life and strengthen relationships among residents, delivering clear public benefit to the estate and neighbouring areas.
Future plans
The trustees intend to build on recent progress in strengthening resident engagement and improving the charity’s financial stability.
Priorities for the coming period include encouraging greater participation in the Community Centre’s activities and increasing membership of the Residents’ Association so that a broad cross-section of the estate community is represented. In developing activities and initiatives, the trustees will continue to promote fairness and equal access, taking into account the diverse demographics of the estate and existing provision within the surrounding neighbourhood.
The trustees will continue to manage and maintain the Community Centre premises as an affordable and welcoming community resource. This will include developing a varied programme of activities that reflects the charity’s constitutional objectives, while increasing income through responsible hall hire and community use of the facilities in order to support the long-term sustainability of the charity and its services to residents.
The trustees have noted the impact of unfilled committee positions on the regular functioning of the charity in carrying out its activities. The committee and association members manage to keep core functions running, but with an increasing workload and limited time to volunteer it is clear they would benefit immensely from wider membership involvement for sharing tasks and responsibilities in a more sustainable manner. The proposed strengthening of resident engagement for the coming year is intended to help support the committee and charity in carrying out their stated objectives. Defining and risk assessing volunteer roles for a recruitment drive is currently in process.
The trustees will continue to strengthen governance, financial oversight and record-keeping to ensure the charity operates effectively and in accordance with regulatory requirements.

d. Achievements and performance
The main achievements of the charity during 2023–2024 were as follows:
Improved financial position
The main source of income is derived from the hire of the Community Centre halls and bar. Increased awareness of the facilities available and growing demand for hall hire resulted in higher levels of bookings during the year. This led to an increase in income compared with previous years and has enabled the charity to operate on a more financially stable basis. This position allows the trustees to continue providing affordable community activities for residents.
Increased public participation in community activities
Attendance at community meetings and events increased during the year. This was driven by the introduction of a regular printed monthly newsletter delivered to residents’ homes, providing information about activities, meetings and issues affecting the estate. The newsletter has helped improve communication with residents and encouraged greater participation in the charity’s activities.
Increased participation has also been driven by residents’ growing need for support in dealing with high levels of housing repairs while navigating the frequent failures of the council’s official repairs reporting processes. A secondary impact of this has been to strengthen the community and the Residents’ Association itself.
Continued provision of community activities and services
The Community Centre continued to host a wide range of regular activities and community events throughout the year, including exercise and wellbeing sessions, activities for children and older residents, cultural and faith-based gatherings, and community meetings. These activities provide opportunities for recreation, social interaction and community engagement, helping to reduce social isolation and supporting the wellbeing of residents of the Lillington and Longmoore Gardens Estate and neighbouring areas.
e. Financial review and reserves policy
The trustees aim to maintain sufficient financial reserves to ensure the charity can continue operating the estate facilities and meet its financial obligations, as outlined in the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) (FRS 102) and the requirements of the Regulations.
Reserves are held to:
-
cover the routine costs of maintaining and operating the premises,
-
manage unexpected repairs or short-term fluctuations in income, and
-
avoid the charity incurring debts or financial commitments that it cannot meet.
4
In determining the appropriate level of reserves, the trustees consider the charity’s typical annual running costs and the need to maintain continuity of services for residents.
The trustees aim to hold unrestricted reserves equivalent to approximately 3-6 months of normal operating costs. This level is reviewed annually as part of the preparation of the charity’s accounts and Trustees’ Annual Report.
At the end of the financial year the charity held £52,167 in unrestricted reserves, which the trustees consider to be above the level required under this policy. A higher level of reserves is being maintained due to planned refurbishment of the community centre that will require temporary closure of the building. Activities and hall hire will be curtailed for an uncertain period of time and will have a considerable impact on financial income and planning. The trustees consider it prudent to build up greater reserves prior to the forthcoming closures in order to maintain the financial stability of the charity.

The trustees declare that they have approved the trustees’ report above. Signed on behalf of the charity’s trustees:

LILLINGTON AND LONGMOORE GARDENS RESIDENTS ASSOCIATION (LALGRA) Notes to the Financial Statements For The Year Ended 31 March 2024
1. Accounting Policies
Charity information
LILLINGTON AND LONGMOORE GARDENS RESIDENTS ASSOCIATION (LALGRA) is a registered charity .
1.1. Accounting convention
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the Club's [governing document], the Charities Act 2011 and “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)” (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2016). The Charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The Charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.
The accounts 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 Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying FRS 102 rather than the version of the Statement of Recommended Practice which is referred to in the Regulations but which has since been withdrawn.
The accounts are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the Charity. Monetary a mounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain financial instruments at fair value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
1.2 Going concern funds
At the time of approving the accounts, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the accounts.
1.3 Charitable funds
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives unless the funds have been designated for other purposes.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the accounts.
Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the Charity.
1.4 Incoming resources
Income is recognised when the Charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the Charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the Charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business, net of discounts and other sales related taxes.
1.5 Tangible Assets
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Plant and machinery – 20% Straight Line
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year.

LILLINGTON AND LONGMOORE GARDENS RESIDENTS’ Notes to the Financial Statements (continued) For The Year Ended 31 March 2024
1. Accounting policies (Continued)
1.6 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.
1.7 Financial instruments
The Charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the Charity's balance sheet when the Charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
2. Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the Charity’s accounting policies, the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
