REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES 

## **Expenditure** 

The  Statement  of  Financial  Activities  (SOFA)  shows  the  analysis  of  charitable  activities  split between  development,  fundraising,  event,  support  and  governance  costs.  Total  spending  on charitable activities, at £24,468 (2020/2021: £19,182), representing a 28% increase, due to higher event costs. 

## **Events** 

The Society organises public meetings, lectures, internal meetings, and visits to places of interest. Further details of event profitability are set out in Note 5. 

## **General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)** 

From 25 May 2018, data-processing in the EU has been governed by the General Data Protection Regulation  2016/679  (“GDPR”),  which  replaced  the  UK  Data  Protection  Act  1998,  and  has implications for all organisations which control and process personal data. 

The Chelsea Society holds on computer the name and address, and in some cases also the e-mail address and telephone number, of its members (all of whom are adults), and records whether the member has made a valid Gift Aid declaration. The Data Controller is the Chairman of the Society but any request for information about data, or for any amendment or deletion, is dealt with by the Membership Secretary, acting on behalf of the Data Controller. 

The Society does not share any information with third parties except in compliance with Article 28 of  GDPR,  regarding  the  legal  conduct  of  processing  of  information.  The  Society  has  always published the names (but not addresses) of its members in its Annual Report. 

A Data Protection notice has been placed on the website at http://chelseasociety.org.uk/join-us-2/. Members  are  advised  that  they  have  a  statutory  right  of  complaint  to  the  Information Commissioner.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT 

## **GOVERNANCE** 

The management of the registered charity (No. 276264) and its assets is vested in the Trustees. The Charity is governed by its current constitution, adopted on 21 November 2016. 

Article 4 of the Constitution provides that there shall be a Council of the Society which shall comprise  Elected Councillors, Co-opted  Councillors, and Officers.  Elected Councillors  shall be elected to be Members of Council by Members of the Society at a General Meeting, and at any time there shall be no more than twelve Elected Councillors.  The Council may by resolution co-opt further persons to be Members of Council. The term of each appointment shall be such as may be determined by resolution of Council but not exceeding one year.  At any time, there shall normally be no more than four Co-opted Councillors. 

The Council is required to appoint appropriate persons to the offices specified in Article 5 and on such appointment such persons shall be Members of Council for the duration of their terms of office.  The specified offices are Chairman, Vice-chairman; Secretary, Membership Secretary, and Treasurer. 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

Much has changed in the world since The Chelsea Society was established in 1927 but it remains grounded in a commitment  to  preserve  and  improve  the amenities of Chelsea  for the  public benefit. 

We implement this commitment through, lectures, exhibitions, publications, events, campaigns fundraising activities and appeals, and by making representations to the proper authorities. We will further preserve and improve the amenities of Chelsea by encouraging interest in the history and traditions of Chelsea, focusing on architecture, town planning and civic design, the planting and care of trees and the conservation and proper maintenance of buildings and open spaces, and the abatement of nuisances. 

The Trustees hold the charitable funds, and apply the income, and at their discretion, the capital, for any charitable purposes for which the Society is established. The receipt given for donations and legacies states that the funds will be used for the general purposes of the Charity, unless the Society accepts a donation for a special purpose which is stated by the donor and confirmed in the receipt given. 

## **RISK MANAGEMENT** 

The Trustees have overall responsibility for ensuring that the Society has an appropriate system of controls, financial and otherwise. Systems of financial control are designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance against material misstatement or loss. 

The  Trustees  carry  out  an  annual  review of the  following  categories  of risk;  governance  and management, operational, external factors and compliance with laws and regulations. The Trustees will identify the primary risks applicable to the Society in each category and develop action plans to mitigate the risks identified. 

## **ACHIEVEMENTS** 

During the year, the Society’s funds supported a wide range of charitable activities in and relating to Chelsea for the public benefit, and are reported in the Chairman’s report to members at the AGM, which is also published in the Society’s Annual Report. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

The Society derives its main income from Members’ subscriptions. Lectures and visits also make a contribution, together with some donations, legacies and Gift Aid receipts. 

Net increase in funds in the year was £14,916 (2020/2021: £5,086). Funds carried forward at the year end totalled £89,184.

7 



STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT 

Cash and cash equivalents at the year-end was £103,934 (2020/2021: £90,034). 

## **Reserves policy** 

The Trustees have established a policy that the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in fixed assets should be approximately £40,000, which is the cost of a major exhibition. This is considered prudent since the reserve also protects the Society from any legal challenges against it on planning matters, and enables it to pay for legal advice on planning and other matters. At present the free reserves are slightly above target, but future plans for charitable activities in schools and for an architecture and photography prize will reduce the reserves. 

The Society has in the past organised public exhibitions, and for future exhibitions advice will be taken as to whether the Society could benefit from Museums and Galleries Tax Relief granted by Schedule 6 of the Finance (No.2) Act 2017, also as to whether the Society is entitled to VAT relief on purchases of goods or services. 

## **PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS** 

The  Society  intends  to  contribute  to  school  prizes  and  projects,  as  well  as  architectural competitions, and to monitor and if thought fit oppose, planning applications. A major exhibition will also be held within the next three years. 

## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEE’S RESPONSIBILITIES** 

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards. 

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Society and enable them to ensure that the financial  statements  comply  with  the  Charities  Act  2011;  the  Charity  (Accounts  and  Reports) Regulations 2008/629 (Regulation 8); and the provisions of the Society’s Constitution. They are responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Society and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

Law  applicable  to  charities  in  England  and  Wales  requires  the  Trustees  to  prepare  financial statements for each financial year, and in preparing these financial statements the Trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) http://www.charitysorp.org/; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state  whether  applicable  UK  Accounting  Standards  have  been  followed,  subject  to  any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and 

- prepare  the  financial  statements  on  a  going-concern  basis  unless  it  is  inappropriate  to assume that the Charity will continue in operation. 

## **PUBLIC BENEFIT STATEMENT** 

Charity Trustees have a duty to report in their Annual Report on their Charity’s public benefit, and they should be clear about what benefits are generated by the activities of the Charity. The benefits must be related to the objectives of the Charity.  The Trustees consider that The Chelsea Society meets the public benefit requirements, and they confirm that they have taken into account the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit published at https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/charitable-purposes-and-public-benefit.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS’ REPORT 

## **Independent examiner’s report to the Trustees of The Chelsea Society** 

I report on the accounts of The Chelsea Society for the year ended 30 June 2022 which are set out on pages 9 to 16. 

## **Respective responsibilities of Trustees and Independent Examiner** 

The Charity’s Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts.  The Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Act, but that an independent examination is needed under section 145 (1)(a). 

It is my responsibility to: 

- (i) examine the accounts under section 145(1)(a) of the 2011 Act; 

- (ii) to follow the procedures laid down in general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act; and 

- (iii) to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner’s report** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the general directions given by the Charity Commission and published at the following location: 

https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/ 672779/CC32-Independent_examination_of_charity_accounts.pdf. 

The 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 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** 

No matter has come to my attention: 

- (1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the following requirements of the Act have not been met: 

   - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Act; and 

   - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements, or 

- (2) to  which,  in  my  opinion,  attention  should  be  drawn  in  order  to  enable  a  proper understanding of the accounts.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION 

## **NOTES ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **(a) Basis of preparation** 

These accounts have been prepared in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard 102 – ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (‘FRS 102’) and with the Statement of Recommended Practice ‘Accounting and Reporting by Charities’ FRS 102 as revised in 2015 (the ‘SORP 2015’), together with the reporting requirements of the Charities Act 2011. 

The Trustees have chosen to adopt the Update Bulletin 1 issued by the Charities Commission on 2 February 2016 which exempts the charity from the need to prepare a Statement of Cash-flows. 

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical-cost convention. 

The accounts have been prepared on the going-concern basis.  There are no material uncertainties in respect of the charity’s ability to continue as a going-concern for the foreseeable future, based on latest strategic plans and financial budgets. 

The accounting policies have been applied consistently throughout the accounts and for the prior year. 

## **(b) Fund accounting policy** 

Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the Trustees’ discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity.  The Charity is a public benefit entity. 

## **(c) Income and endowments** 

Income is recognised in the period in which entitlement is established, when economic benefit is probable (but not virtually certain), and the value can be measured reliably. 

## **(d) Donations and legacies** 

Donations of cash, which include regular giving, public donations and appeals, are recognised as income  once  the  Charity  has the  right to receive the  donation, when it is probable that  the economic benefits will be received, and the amount of the donation can be measured reliably. 

Income from Gift Aid is included in income when there is a valid Gift Aid declaration in relation to donations made prior to the year-end. 

## **(e) Other trading activities** 

Retail income, including income from the sale of Christmas cards, and the sponsorship of events is accounted for when the sale or event takes place and there is an entitlement to income. Events tickets sales are recognised when the event takes place. Expenditure on other trading activities covers the costs of goods sold, including Christmas Cards. Events merchandise is accounted for when the sale occurs. 

## **(f) Expenditure on charitable activities** 

Expenditure on charitable activities performed directly by the charity are accounted for as they are incurred.  These  activities  include  events,  advocacy,  and  costs associated  with  the  local management of programmes to promote the amenity of Chelsea. 

## **(g) Expenditure on raising funds** 

Expenditure  on  raising  funds  comprises  the  costs  incurred  in  commercial  trading  activities, fundraising, and managing investments. Expenditure on raising donations includes the costs of advertising and website costs to promote the Society’s activities.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

- ……. continued 

## **(i) Fund accounting** 

General reserves are unrestricted funds that are available for use at the Trustees’ discretion in furtherance of the objects of the charity. 

## **(j) Provisions and accruals** 

Provisions for future liabilities are recognised when the Charity has a legal or constructive financial obligation that can be reliably estimated and for which there is an expectation that payment will be made. 

## **(k) Accounting estimates and key judgements** 

Critical estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The estimates and assumptions which have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are as follows: 

- (i) **Gift Aid receivable:** The charity has estimated the probable receipt of Gift Aid from HMRC. The rationale behind this is disclosed in note 1(d) above and 1(k)(ii) below. Management believe that the amount accrued is appropriate based on information currently available. 

- (ii) **Income recognition of Gift Aid:** Gift Aid has been recognised by assessing membership income. Management have provided for a percentage of the income over the last four (4) years.  Currently the donation benefit rules are broadly as follows: 

|**Threshold**|**Gift Aid Beneft**|
|---|---|
|Up to £100|25% of the donation|
|Between £100 and £1,000|Beneft value is set at £25|
|More than £1,000|5% of the donation, to a maximum beneft of £2,500|



In terms of valuing the benefits for Gift Aid purposes, newsletters or reports distributed by the Charity to provide their members with a regular update about the charity’s work are excluded. 

## **(l) Related party transactions** 

During the year, Dr James Thompson (Chairman) (or persons connected with him) was erroneously reimbursed administrative costs in the amount of £100.00.  This amount is included in other debtors at 30 June 2022 in the amount of £903.85 (2020/2021: £803.85). 

## **(m) Taxation** 

The charity is exempt from tax on income and gains falling under section 521 to 536 of the Income Tax Act 2007 to the extent that these are applied to its charitable objects.
