Structure, Governance and Management
Governing Document
White Lodge Centre is a company limited by guarantee governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association last amended on 10 January 2017. It is registered as a charity with the Charity Commission.
Appointment of trustees
Trustees are required to have experience in an area of disability or bring professional skills in the broader areas of health, care, education, business or administration. The trustees may appoint a new trustee either to fill a vacancy or as an additional trustee provided that the appointment does not cause the number of trustees to exceed ten. At each Annual General Meeting all trustees retire but, if willing to act, each trustee is reappointed unless the vacancy has been filled or unless a resolution for the reappointment of the trustee is not carried. A person cannot be appointed or reappointed as a trustee unless they are recommended by the trustees and have completed not more than five years continuous service. This may be extended where appropriate subject to a resolution being passed at a general meeting.
Trustee induction and training
New trustees receive both an induction course covering all the activities of White Lodge Centre and material detailing all the processes and procedures relevant to the exercise of the function. Before final appointment, the trustee attends a trustee meeting to ensure that neither party has any misgivings. Security checks are undertaken prior to the appointment of any new trustee. Trustees attend external training as they consider appropriate and after which they will share their learning with the other trustees at the next suitable meeting. Two annual away days are organised during which the trustees are updated on topics particularly relevant to the charity’s activities.
Organisation
The board of trustees, which can have not less than four trustees and not more than ten trustees, administers the charity. The board normally meets every six weeks and there are sub-committees covering: Finance; Fundraising; Safeguarding; Health & Safety and Maintenance; HR, Training & Quality Audit; Children’s Services; Adult Services; Trustee Board, Governance and Strategy which meet either quarterly, bi-annually or

annually depending on the specific sub-group. The trustees approve the overall strategic plan for the charity each year which is then converted into specific operational plans and annual budgets. The plans are formal reports and their contents are reflected in the annual budget, which the trustees also approve.
A CEO is appointed by the trustees who, along with a senior management team and supporting staff teams, manage the day-to-day operations of the charity. The senior management team comprises the departmental heads for services, fundraising and finance. Progress against both budget and departmental targets is reported at trustee meetings where both the CEO and members of the senior management team report in person on a rotational basis throughout the year.
Related parties and co-operation with other organisations
None of the trustees receive remuneration or other benefit from their work with the charity. Any conflict of interest between a trustee and the charity is required to be disclosed to the full board of trustees.
During the year a trustee, Juliette Barnes, provided necessary staff training on an arms length basis at a total cost of £520 (2020: £nil). This transaction was disclosed to and approved by the trustee board.
Pay policy for senior staff
The pay of the senior staff is reviewed annually and changes are made based on factors such as changes in comparable average earnings and the financial position of the charity.
Objectives and Activities
The principal objectives of the charity, as set out in its Memorandum of Association, are ‘to promote the care, welfare, interest, treatment, education and advancement (including through the provision of assistance to parents and carers) in the counties of Surrey, Hampshire and Berkshire, and South West London and other surrounding districts of persons with any form of cerebral palsy or other disability’.

Use of indicators, benchmarks and milestones by trustees to monitor the progress of the activities
The trustees principally use both the standard financial indicators to monitor progress and the reporting system referred to in ‘Organisation’ on pages 2 and 3 of this report. Management use budgets and targets at departmental level, which are included in the annual service report, and fundraising reports. The trustees review the reports and the departmental work at their meetings but they do not set these detailed measures. Members of the management team take part in several ‘collective’ meetings, where the organisation is able to share information about specific parts of the service and make comparisons on cost and quality. The charity ensures that its standards continue to be very high through the quality assessments provided by independent bodies, those bodies contracting the services and by regular internal quality audits. In the section entitled ‘Achievements and Performance’ below, the trustees approve these objectives and monitor their progress and, with the management team, set and approve the future objectives, both short, medium and long term, as set out under ‘Plans for future periods’.
Public benefit
The trustees confirm that they have referred to the appropriate guidance on Public Benefit issued by the Charity Commission when reviewing White Lodge Centre’s aims and objectives and in the planning of future activities as described in this report. A substantial percentage of White Lodge Centre’s funding is received from statutory bodies and is designed to assist disabled children and adults in the local communities it serves.
Strategic Report
Achievements and Performance
Like many organisations, the impact of COVID19 made it a very challenging but rewarding year. Our original plans had to be put on hold so that we could focus on the needs of our service users and staff to ensure that we kept everyone safe, whilst delivering services in the best possible way.
On the announcement of the first lockdown we put on hold our face-to-face services for 10 days. This gave us time to take stock of the situation and put in place guidelines and procedures to work safely, review the financial implication and plan a clear way forward. Many of our staff were at first furloughed with a skeleton staff on site to support services still operating. Key initial strategies for our services were then:
- A bespoke short breaks service was developed which ran for 2 months. Working with social workers and schools we identified the most vulnerable families to offer face-to-face support, we also offered families virtual support. After this time the short break services opened up to offer a normal service, although taking in fewer children and young people to meet government guidelines.

White Lodge Centre
-
Virtual services were developed for many service areas and these opened up fairly quickly to a mixture of face-to-face and virtual sessions whichever was appropriate.
-
A few smaller services were temporarily suspended where we felt it was not safe to operate.
By the summer many services returned with face-to-face work with limited numbers, with these numbers gradually increasing over the year where safe to do so. We did not withdraw any further services through subsequent lockdowns as measures had been put in place to run services as safely as possible. Since February 2020, key staff have met regularly to ensure White Lodge has done everything it can to meet its key objectives in a safe way.
There is no doubt that the ‘can do‘ attitude of both our staff and volunteers and their creativity and innovation has been a huge part of why White Lodge has been able to continue to offer so many services throughout this difficult time.
We are also extremely grateful to NHS Surrey, Surrey County Council and other statutory bodies who have continued to support us throughout.
Our Fundraising team changed their focus to run more on-line events, some proving extremely popular, especially our Stay at Home Heroes campaign which raised over £35,000. We have had many generous donations from our supporters and we were able to secure funds from some specific Trusts related to the pandemic.
Due to the pandemic, many Trusts changed their focus and this has impacted on our hydrotherapy pool project where we have now secured over 50% of the funding, this project will continue this year and we are confident we can reach our target. We were delighted to open our new in-house cinema during the year; this has proved invaluable in offering a further activity on site. We have completed part of the refurbishment of Treetops including the outside decking area and were fortunate to purchase a number of pieces of equipment which have given added value to many of our services.
Since the year-end, Lesley Robbins, our CEO, has retired. We would like to record our thanks to her for 12 years of leadership which has seen White Lodge thrive. Her clear direction during the pandemic was outstanding and enables us to emerge reasonably unscathed to continue our work going forward. We have secured the services of an excellent replacement, Lesleigh Bounds, who has started as our new CEO from 14[th] July 2021 and we look forward to the future with confidence.
White Lodge feels in a strong place to move forward and that is down to our supporters, volunteers, Patrons and the wonderful staff team. Thank You.

Financial Review
The Statement of Financial Activities (‘SOFA’) for the year ended 31 March 2021 shows:
Incoming resources of £2,421,000 (£151,000 lower than last year’s result of £2,572,000)
The Covid pandemic has had a significant impact on income generated from charitable activities. White Lodge remained open and providing both face to face and remote services throughout the year but it was not possible for all services to operate at their full capacity levels. Key considerations were the need for many individual service users to shield plus the need to run face to face services at lower group sizes to meet social distancing rules. This impacted charitable service income funded by direct purchase agreements and this income fell by £311,000 compared to last year.
This drop in service income was offset in part by payments received under the government’s Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme (“CJRS”) of £135,000.
Fundraising income (including fundraising trading) of £493,000 was £21,000 higher than last year. This is considered a great achievement during the lockdown restrictions and income in this area was bolstered by two extremely successful direct appeals for help in both April-June 2020 and later in November-December 2020 for which we are very grateful.
These events enabled us to maintain fundraising income at an increased level to last year despite a significant drop in face to face fundraising activities and the income that is generated from these. In particular, there was a drop in community and events fundraising of approximately 66% / £100,000 and the challenge for 2021/22 will be to build this fundraising activity back to historic levels.
Resources expended of £2,524,000 (£354,000 lower than last year’s result of £2,878,000)
White Lodge managed its cost base effectively during the year so that where possible this could be reduced to reflect both the drop in service usage arising from the pandemic and to reflect the change in the way that fundraising income was raised.
The key reductions were a drop in staffing costs of £207,000 and a drop in fundraising costs of £82,000. The drop in staffing costs was primarily achieved through a reduction in the need for additional time from staff on bank hour contracts plus the decision not to re-recruit certain positions that became vacant during the year. The drop in fundraising costs mainly arose from appeals for support not requiring the same levels of cost to run compared to face to face activities such as running events.

White Lodge Centre
Net deficit of £103,000 (£203,000 improvement on last year’s net deficit of £306,000).
The net deficit breaks down as below:
| The net deficit breaks down as below: | |
|---|---|
| Net deficit on services before fundraising and depreciation Fundraising surplus Net surplus / (deficit) before depreciation Depreciation Net deficit |
2020/21 £’000s 2019/20 £’000s (149) (250) 311 208 |
| 162 (42) (265) (264) (103) (306) |
The highlighted net surplus / (deficit) before depreciation is a key financial metric monitored by the trustees with the objective of a positive balance for each year as capital expenditure is largely funded by discrete fundraising activities rather than through on-going operations. This metric therefore provides a barometer on operational performance and the associated impact of this on cash position and freely available reserves.
The Balance Sheet shows total net assets of £5,576,000 compared to £5,679,000 in 2020. The reduction in reserves is due to the depreciation of £265,000 of the tangible fixed assets used by the charity, offset by the surplus before depreciation of £162,000.
The closing cash position improved with cash at bank increasing to £708,000 compared to £314,000 in 2020. The key reasons for this increase were the combination of a net surplus before depreciation flowing through to a positive net cashflow from operating activities of £198,000 plus the arrangement of a new bank loan facility of £250,000 (disclosed at its calculated present value of £249,000).
The bank loan was arranged under the government backed Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme (“CBILS”) and was considered a prudent response to the cashflow uncertainty that existed for the Charity in the early part of 2020/21 arising from the Covid pandemic. The bank loan has a six-year term with no capital or interest payable in the first 12 months (interest costs being borne by the government for this initial period). The Charity’s intention is to repay the loan early if it becomes clear that cashflow risks are low enough to deem that it is not required and from a first review of this position £150,000 was repaid in May 2021.

Reserves policy
Note 13 to the financial statements sets out the allocation of the net assets to the various funds. The unrestricted reserves were £1,096,000 on 31 March 2021 of which freely available reserves, equivalent to unrestricted net current assets less unrestricted creditors falling due after more than one year, were £381,000 (2020: £298,000).
The freely available reserves of £381,000 represent internal funds that need to be held for shortfalls in revenue or unexpected costs. The trustees consider that freely available reserves of £400,000 would normally be required. The trustees are focused on correcting this shortfall over a five-year period
Restricted reserves principally cover the investments made over the years in our land and buildings.
Tangible fixed assets
Any movements in fixed assets are shown in Note 9 to the financial statements. A substantial part of the book value of freehold and leasehold premises is represented by the cost of the relatively new buildings. Overall, and having regard to the specific use of the buildings, the trustees consider that the value of the freehold and leasehold premises is fairly stated.
Investments Policy
All surplus funds are invested between Nationwide, Santander, The Charity Bank and National Westminster Bank instant access accounts. The trustees believe that this is the best strategy to safeguard the necessity of ensuring activities each year are fully funded and that any short term shortfall in fundraising activities does not have immediate repercussions due to the ease of access to the funds.
Going concern
A detailed budget for 2021/22 has been prepared that forecasts a net surplus before depreciation of £36,000. This is based on an assumption that the net services deficit before depreciation will increase to £268,000 as service provision returns to historic levels without significant additional government coronavirus specific support. The fundraising income target is £500,000 with associated costs of £196,000 resulting in a fundraising surplus of £304,000.
A detailed cashflow for 2021/22 has been prepared which indicates that based on achieving a net surplus before depreciation of £36,000 there will be adequate cash resources to meet both usual fluctuations in cashflow and the requirement to commence repayments of capital and interest on the CBILS Loan from May 2021 onwards.
With the above measures in place, White Lodge is fully expected to have adequate cash resources to meet its on-going activity over the next 12 months and accordingly the trustees believe that there is adequate evidence to satisfy any going concern considerations.

Fundraising Statement
We directly employ a small fundraising team to organise our fundraising campaigns and events and also to co-ordinate the activities of our supporters and volunteers. We do not use professional fundraisers or involve commercial participators to solicit donations and have no plans in the future to do so. There have been no complaints about fundraising activity this year.
We are registered with the Fundraising Regulator and take all appropriate review and training activities necessary to ensure that we comply with the Fundraising Regulator’s Code of Fundraising Practice.
To protect our supporters from unwanted intrusion we only retain personal data if this has been approved by the respective person. We do not sell or pass on our supporters’ personal data and we have never purchased fundraising data from a third party. We usually only undertake direct marketing on a twice yearly basis with the distribution of our Centre Voice magazine.
Principal risks and uncertainties
The trustees consider that the principal challenges faced by White Lodge Centre, and the risks associated therewith, are the need to:
-
continue to provide a high quality service;
-
operate within budgets;
-
cover the excess of costs over statutory and other service income by raising sufficient voluntary income.
-
continue to manage the charity through the major impacts of the Covid 19 pandemic
The trustees and management have conducted a review of the major risks to which White Lodge Centre is exposed arising from the above challenges. Detailed procedures are in place to mitigate these risks and they are assessed under the headings of governance and management risk, operational risk, financial risk and compliance risk. The information outlined below is designed to provide the information needed to monitor these challenges, contain the risks, and take any necessary corrective action.

At the regular six weekly meetings, the trustees receive and consider:
-
presentations, on a rotational basis, from key management personnel;
-
a report from the CEO of the Centre, which deals with matters arising during the past six weeks;
-
a report from the Treasurer, which reports on the voluntary income position and advises of any significant variations from the expense and revenue budgets;
-
a report on health and safety issues;
-
particulars of any other matters that are relevant to their duties, for example:
-
presentations from the professional advisers (architects and quantity surveyors) on building issues;
-
presentations from the insurance brokers on insurance coverage;
-
review of physical security issues;
-
feedback from user surveys of the quality of service provided by White Lodge Centre.
The trustees also annually evaluate their performance both as individuals and as a Board.
The trustees consider that the information they receive, the internal control systems that are established and the action the trustees take all combine to enable them to confirm that the major risks to which the charity is exposed are reviewed annually and systems are in place to mitigate those risks.
Trustees’ Responsibilities
The charity’s trustees (who are also the directors of White Lodge Centre for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing a trustees’ annual report and financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the charity’s trustees to prepare financial statements for each year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP (FRS102);
-
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;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.

The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company’s website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.
Statement of disclosure of information to the Auditor
In so far as the trustees are aware at the time of approving our trustees’ annual report:
-
there is no relevant information, being information needed by the auditor in connection with preparing their report, of which the company’s auditor is unaware, and
-
the trustees, having made enquiries of fellow directors and the company’s auditor that they ought to have individually taken, have each taken all steps that he/she is obliged to take as a director in order to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the auditor is aware of that information.
Strategic Report
The company has chosen in accordance with Section 414C(11) of the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors’ Report) Regulations 2013 to set out within the Strategic Report the Company’s Strategic Report Information required by Schedule 7 of the Large and Medium Sized Companies and Groups (Accounts and Reports) Regulation 2008.

Independent auditor’s report to the members of White Lodge Centre
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of White Lodge Centre (the ‘charitable company’) for the year ended 31 March 2021 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, Balance Sheet, Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is 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).
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company’s affairs as at 31 March 2021, 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 Companies Act 2006.
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 Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company 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 director's 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 charitable company'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.

The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. 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. 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 course of 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.
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
-
the information given in the trustees’ report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
-
the trustees’ report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the trustees’ report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
certain disclosures of directors’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or

- the directors were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies regime and take advantage of the small companies’ exemptions in preparing the directors’ report and from the requirement to prepare a strategic report.
Responsibilities of directors
As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out on page 12, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they 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 charitable company’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 directors either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
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 an auditor’s report 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.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The specific procedures for this engagement and the extent to which these are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
-
The charitable company is subject to laws and regulations that directly affect the financial statements including financial reporting legislation. We determined that the following laws and regulations were most significant including the Charities Act 2011, the Safeguarding Vulnerable Groups Act 2006 and the UK Code of Fundraising Practice. We assessed the extent of compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our procedures on the related financial statement items.
-
We understood how the charitable company is complying with those legal and regulatory frameworks by, making inquiries to management, those responsible for legal and compliance procedures and the company secretary. We corroborated our inquiries through our review of board minutes.

-
The engagement partner assessed whether the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence and capabilities to identify or recognise non-compliance with laws and regulations. The assessment did not identify any issues in this area.
-
We assessed the susceptibility of the charitable company’s financial statements to material misstatement, including how fraud might occur. Audit procedures performed by the engagement team included:
-
Ø Identifying and assessing the design effectiveness of controls management has in place to prevent and detect fraud;
-
Ø Understanding how those charged with governance considered and addressed the potential for override of controls or other inappropriate influence over the financial reporting process;
-
Ø Challenging assumptions and judgments made by management in its significant accounting estimates; and
-
Ø Identifying and testing journal entries, in particular any journal entries posted with unusual account combinations.
-
As a result of the above procedures, we considered the opportunities and incentives that may exist within the organisation for fraud and identified the greatest potential for fraud in the following areas:
-
Ø Posting of fraudulent journal entries
-
Ø Posting of fraudulent payments and receipts in the accounting software
-
Ø Authorisation, processing, and payment of fraudulent expenses
-
Ø Timing of revenue recognition
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.
A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/Our-Work/Audit/Audit-and-assurance/Standards-andguidance/Standards-and-guidance-for-auditors/Auditors-responsibilities-for-audit/Descriptionof-auditors-responsibilities-for-audit.aspx.

Notes forming part of the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2021
1 Accounting policies
White Lodge Centre is a charitable company limited by guarantee and is incorporated in England and Wales. Details of the company’s registered office and principal activities are set out in the Report of the Trustees.
The following are the accounting policies adopted by White Lodge Centre.
- a) Basis of accounting
The financial statements have been prepared 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 2015) – (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), and the Companies Act 2006.
The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.
The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain items at fair value. The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity.
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.
- b)Fund accounting
The general fund comprises the accumulated surpluses of unrestricted incoming resources over resources expended, which are available for use in furtherance of the general objective of the charity.
Designated funds are a particular form of unrestricted funds consisting of amounts which have been allocated or designated for specific purposes by trustees. The use of designated funds remains at the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted funds are funds subject to specific conditions imposed by donors. The purpose and use of restricted funds are set out in the notes to the accounts. Amounts unspent at the year-end are carried forward in the balance sheet

Annual report and financial statements – 2020/21
White Lodge Centre
c) Incoming resources
All incoming resources are included in the SOFA when the charity is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. Gifts in kind are included at valuation. No amounts are included in the financial statements for services donated by volunteers. Amounts donated for the acquisition of fixed assets are treated as income, in accordance with the requirements of the SORP, and the relevant expenditure is capitalised.
d) Resources expended
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of the resources, primarily by reference to areas occupied or numbers of staff, depending on the nature of the cost.
Fundraising costs are those costs incurred in seeking voluntary contributions.
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.
Allocation of support costs are determined by estimated time spent by direct personnel in the supporting of each activity and all other central costs are allocated on the basis of total indirect personnel salaries.
Governance costs are those costs relating specifically to the charity, as distinct from the service provided by the charity, and include the costs of compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements.
e) Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Tangible fixed assets costing £500 or more are capitalised and included at cost.
The buildings are situated on land that is both leasehold and freehold. All costs relating to these buildings, including the substantial rebuilding expenditure of recent years, has been allocated accordingly. Land and building expenditure is depreciated as set out below with treatment of freehold premises being the same as leasehold premises, as the freehold premises would not operate independently of the leasehold premises.
Structure straight line over remaining leasehold life to 31[st] December 2042 Roof straight line over remaining estimated life to 31[st] March 2035 Fixed plant straight line over remaining estimated life to 31[st] March 2030

Annual report and financial statements – 2020/21
White Lodge Centre
Freehold land Not depreciated
The other fixed assets are written off over their expected useful lives at the following annual rates:
Equipment 10% on cost Computers 25% on cost Motor vehicles 25% on reducing net book value
- f) Impairment of fixed assets
The charity reviews the carrying amount of its tangible and intangible assets at the end of each reporting period to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).
g) Stock
Stock consists of purchased goods for resale and is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Items donated for resale are not included in the financial statements until they are sold.
h) Going concern
An assessment has been made of the impacts of the Covid 19 pandemic on the charity to determine whether it is appropriate to continue to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis. In undertaking this assessment 24 month financial projections have been prepared through to 31[st] March 2023.
Consideration has been made of:
-
The impact on both reserves and cashflow of an expected loss of both service and fundraising income and the probability of when income will return to prepandemic levels;
-
The ability of the charity to adapt to any perceived permanent changes in income levels and adjust its cost base accordingly;
-
The impact of short term cashflow support measures including support provided by both central government, HMRC and local authorities;
-
The impact of medium term cashflow support measures including obtaining debt finance.
The trustees have concluded from this review that it is appropriate to continue to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis and that the charity

DocuSign Envelope ID: 46FC645F-2729-4DCC-89F6-8DC541E776FB
Annual report and financial statements – 2020/21
White Lodge Centre
will have adequate cash resources to meet its on-going activity over the 12 months from the approval of these financial statements.
- i) 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.
- j) 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.
k) Tax
The charity is an exempt charity within the meaning of schedule 3 of the Charities Act 2011 and is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes.
- l) Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty
In 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.
The main accounting estimate for the charity is depreciation.
m) Legal status
White Lodge Centre is a private company limited by guarantee without share capital, incorporated in England and Wales.

n) Pension contributions
The charity makes a contribution into defined contribution pension schemes on behalf of some employees. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the charity in independently administered funds. The amount charged to The Statement of Financial Activities in respect of pension costs is the total contributions payable for the year.
o) Employee benefits
The costs of short-term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense, unless those costs are required to be part of the cost of stock or fixed assets. The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received. Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
p) Government grants
-
(i) Coronavirus Business Interruption Loan Scheme (“CBILS”) Government support to pay interest costs as part of the CBILS is recognised as income on an accruals basis with respect to the associated interest cost for the accounting period. The grant is disclosed as Other Income in the Statement of Financial Activities.
-
(ii) Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme (“CJRS”) Government support to contribute to furloughed staff costs as part of the CJRS is recognised as income on an accruals basis with respect to the associated salary cost for the accounting period. The grant is disclosed as Other Income in the Statement of Financial Activities.

16 Related party transactions
Children of trustees can receive services at White Lodge Centre funded by statutory authorities who refer them to White Lodge Centre to receive their care package.
During the course of a year most trustees make small donations to White Lodge. Such donations are made without condition or restriction, and some are made anonymously and the amounts during the year are not significant.
During the year a trustee, Juliette Barnes, provided necessary staff training on an arms length basis at a total cost of £520 (2020: £nil). This transaction was disclosed to and approved by the trustee board.
17 Contingent Asset
White Lodge Centre has been notified by the Executors of the respective estates of two potential legacy gifts, the first being notified in January 2021 and the second being notified in February 2021.
At the date of approval of the 2020/21 financial statements no monies have been received and it has not been possible to clarify with reasonable certainty the exact value of the gifts as receipt of both legacies are contingent upon grant of probate, uncontested wills and the completion of asset sales including both property and equity portfolios. Our estimate is that this might realise income for White Lodge of between £90,000 and £140,000.
