Management Committee’s report

Structure, governance, and management

The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated in July 1985, and registered as a charity in December 1985.

The company was established under a memorandum of association which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its articles of association.

Committee members are appointed by Coin Street Centre Trust which is the sole member of the Charity. The Management Committee takes decisions on policies, strategies and sets objectives and targets.

The Charity works closely with Coin Street Community Builders (CSCB), a local social enterprise and development trust.

Jubilee Hall Trust Limited (JHT) manages the staff and the Centre including the related outdoor sports facilities on behalf of the Charity. JHT is a registered charity and one of the foremost providers of community fitness facilities in London. The Centre is managed by Stuart Flude, one of Jubilee Hall Trust’s most experienced centre managers.

The Colombo Street Community and Sports Centre is proud to be a London Living Wage employer. Staff pay is reviewed annually to ensure appropriately skilled staff can be recruited and retained.

Financial review

The Charity had an operating surplus of £28,821 for the year ended 31 March 2022 (2021: £137,171 deficit), showing an established recovery since the COVID-19 lockdown. Use of the Hatfields and Paris Gardens outdoor sports facilities was approaching pre-pandemic levels. Gym membership has been slower to recover but has nevertheless more than doubled in the last financial year and is rising.

Colombo now faces further challenges in the form of external economic factors such as extreme weather conditions, intermittent industrial action and the cost-ofliving crisis which is has been factored into its forecasting. In addition, and possibly the biggest impact, will be the escalating cost of utilities. Jubilee Hall Trust have run a stress tested forecast anticipating that even if it runs at a small deficit due to the unforeseen significant increase in utilities in the short term it has the capability to deliver a surplus going forward. In the short to medium term it has a reasonable working capital position; at 31 March 2022 the Charity had net current assets of £237,468 (2021: £139,401).

The Management Committee have designated funds of £230,237 (2021: £224,244). These funds represent the amount of the Charity’s funds which are tied up in tangible fixed assets; a sinking and repair and maintenance fund to cover larger capital investment needed to the centre and outdoor facilities; ringfenced provision for community programme support; and also a sum set aside to facilitate long-term planning.

All Management Committee members give their time voluntarily. No Committee member received any remuneration or reimbursement of expenses (2021: nil).

Management Committee’s report

General funds were £70,371 (2021: £47,543). The current policy on reserves requires that free reserves shall be maintained to provide for the ability to continue in operation in the short to medium term in the event there is an unforeseen downturn in income, estimated to equate to two to three months of operational expenditure. Based on this approach and on 21/22 expenditure levels, our target is between £85k and £127k. Since the impact of COVID-19 and 20/21 deficit the Charity has been able to start to build back those reserves with that target in mind. The Management Committee note that they have designated reserves to cover community support programmes and gym improvements, currently at £24k that can be drawn on as required to support activities and will continue to restore the levels as well as monitoring their policy annually.

Based on this information the Management Committee consider that there are no material uncertainties about the Charitys’ ability to continue as a going concern.

Objectives and activities

Purposes and aims

The Charity’s objectives are “to promote the benefit of those resident or working in the United Kingdom with a particular focus on Greater London, without distinction of sex and of political or religious or other opinions, by associating the local authorities, voluntary organisations and said residents and workers in a common effort to advance the education of the public and to improve full time facilities in the interests of the social welfare for recreation and leisure time occupation with the object of improving the conditions of life for the said residents and workers”.

The Management Committee reviews the aims, objectives, and activities of the Charity each year. This report looks at what the Charity has achieved and the outcomes of its work in the reporting period. The Management Committee report the success of each key activity and the benefits the Charity has brought to those groups of people that it is set up to help. The review also helps the Management Committee ensure the Charity’s aims, objectives and activities remained focused on its stated purposes.

The Management Committee 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 Management Committee consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives that have been set.

Achievements and performance

The Charity’s main activities and those it aims to help are described below. All its charitable activities focus on recreational activities and are undertaken to further Colombo Street Community and Sports Centre’s charitable purposes for the public benefit.

The Centre combines a community centre, inclusive gym, dance studio, meeting rooms and kitchen, therapy rooms and studios and offers free and low-cost activities across seven days a week for families, seniors, young people and those on low incomes.

Our gym is open to all and caters to adults of all ages, as well as young people under professional supervision. Our community sessions based at the Centre are mainly focused on families, children, and young people, and those aged over 50. Our movement sessions aim to be completely inclusive and include those with mobility, sight, and hearing issues.

Our approach is led by the needs and opportunities within our community. We continue to focus our activities where they can make the most impact and aim to be responsive in finding timely solutions where issues arise.

Management Committee’s report

Fitness and friendship for everyone

The Colombo Street Community and Sports Centre provides a truly inclusive fitness and friendship offer to the local community.

We are particularly proud that the Colombo Centre offers a welcoming experience to those who might not otherwise venture inside a gym.

We offer an allocation of free gym memberships to priority individuals and families from the local community who could not otherwise afford to take this up. This year, 15% of all of our gym visits were by those accessing this priority scheme – young and old who are keen to look after their health but could not afford to join a gym elsewhere.

We were the first affordable gym in Central London, before budget gyms become the norm, and we continue to hold our fees at a level aimed to encourage people living, working, or studying locally to stay fit and healthy. As the cost-of-living crisis intensifies, we have been determined to keep gym going affordable for our local community and we held our fees below other local gyms to do so.

By March 2021 our core gym membership was as follows:

— 493 members — 116 corporate members — 75% Male — 288 local resident members — 25% Female — 89 others.

We believe we can have the biggest impact on health and wellbeing across our neighbourhood by

— helping young people build good health and wellbeing habits early in life

— helping older people sustain those same habits into their twilight years.

Our Fitness Fridays offer the chance for young people aged 12-19 years old to use our youth gym featuring boxing, circuits and nutrition and fitness advice from professional trainers.

For the over 50s Feel Good Saturday sessions offer gentle massage, yoga, stretch, gym circuits and spin followed by a healthy and social lunch. This group have highlighted the session as vital to their social network, as well as their continued fitness and mobility.

This inclusive approach extends to our outdoor sports facilities which consist of two outdoor football pitches, and two outdoor sports courts. These host a range of sports and activities including tennis, football, basketball, netball, and walking football (new for this year).

More than 350 young people accessed our pitches and courts every week across a range of organised sports activities and clubs. In addition to this the facilities were used by the neighbouring London Nautical School daily to provide outdoor sports and fitness for the school’s 630 pupils.

Local clubs who used the facilities regularly included SE1 Tennis Club, Bankside Football Club, Active Communities, Oasis Hub, Ladies Super Liga FC, Waterloo Football Club, Cameroon Lions as well as initiatives aimed at getting older men and women back into football and netball.

Our contract with Powerplay to run the hugely popular commercial football and netball leagues every weekday continued to help subsidise free of charge community access on weekday evenings and at weekends.

These facilities were developed in 2005 following a four-year local campaign, which resulted in Lambeth and Southwark Councils transferring two derelict sites to the Colombo Centre, followed by a significant fundraising campaign to build these facilities, which are a stone’s throw away from the Centre.

On the frontline in the response to COVID-19

This year saw continued challenges from the COVID-19 pandemic. As the pandemic entered the second year of lockdowns the importance of the Colombo Centre as a hub for making connections and strengthening health and wellbeing became clear.

In the latter part of the COVID-19 response we transformed the Colombo Centre into a donation station and distribution hub, turning the sports hall into a command centre with donated goods arriving from local businesses and volunteers sorting them into packs and organising deliveries.

We collected dried groceries, tins, toiletries, sweets, new toys, clothes, books, art and crafts materials for local residents’ care packages. We continued to deliver food parcels and hampers to those who needed support. By the time we wound this service down we had delivered more than 17,000 food parcels to those in need across our community.

Recognising that COVID-19 has caused lasting impacts to financial, physical, and mental health we transformed our spin studio into a permanent “donation station”. Fitted out with shelfing and staffed by volunteers, this space now takes donations of clothes, long life foods, toys and family essentials and makes them available to local residents who need them.

In the wake of the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan in August 2021, hundreds of Afghan families who sought refuge in the UK were temporarily housed in hotels close to the Centre. The Colombo donation station reacted quickly to help the families secure some home comforts – including prayer mats, baby clothes and nappies, prams and toys. The Centre also organised several “fun days” to give the children a chance to play together and families to meet and eat together, away from their hotel lodgings.

We expect the fallout from COVID-19 will increase demand for the community support we provide and underlines the value in staying healthy to build resilience against illness and disease.

Management Committee’s report

A health and wellbeing hub for our community

The approach of the Colombo hub is based around building good health and wellbeing habits and behaviours in the young and maintaining those habits in those who are older.

Our approach is a social one – exercising and movement as part of a community strengthens “stickiness” and adds mental health benefits to the physical health benefits.

The Colombo Centre has been a community hub for generations. Parents who come to the Centre today share their memories with us of roller skating around the main hall as teenagers or attending the playgroup in what is now known as the community room.

In 2021 the Centre stood in the shadow of the pandemic, amidst a “cost of living” crisis, and in what Guy’s and St Thomas’ Foundation NHS Trust identify locally as a twin troubles of child obesity in the young and multiple, long term health conditions in those over 50.

Our response is to use the hub approach to pull together multiple and complementary responses to strengthen local health and wellbeing.

The Colombo partnership with Breathe London therapies allow us to offer one of the widest range of wellbeing services in central London, with their treatment rooms home to a handpicked group of therapists. We’re proud to host Breathe as an SE1 success story.

Our partnership with Coin Street Centre Trust and Coin Street Community Builders and our jointly delivered community programmes again this year formed the bedrock of our health and wellbeing hub activity. Our programme included:

This year we let studio space at affordable rates to a wide host of local health and wellbeing groups. Our badminton group completed 135 hours of play together; adults and young people studied with the Fukuota Shotokan Karate Club; and the City Academy hosted the Diva Dance Company, street dance, jazz dance, and burlesque classes.

“

I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate you supporting Tracy’s Dance Fit class on Tuesdays at Colombo. It is great to be back in such a fabulous class.”

“

As a retired person I have not had many of the challenges faced by others during COVID-19 restrictions, but the time has been made so much happier because of Tracy’s brilliance at professionally running Zoom classes during lockdown. The classes have kept us fit, happy, and given a helpful structure to the week. We are lucky to have her and really appreciate you continuing to support the class. Long may it continue.”

Our partnerships

We are grateful for the support this year from all the organisations who provided funding to support our work in the community. The support of Southwark Council has been critical with funding through grants for our work with young people as well as business support to mitigate the long-term impact of COVID-19.

We owe a great debt of gratitude to the army of regular and one-off volunteers who have stepped forward to offer their time and talents in service of the community. Their contribution has thrown a supporting arm around our community during another difficult year.

Management Committee’s report

Looking forward

The importance of the Centre as a hub where connections are made and people of all ages can invest in their own health and wellbeing has been clearer this year than ever.

The COVID-19 pandemic continued to impact across our community. The Colombo Centre has risen to the challenge that COVID-19 has presented. We have introduced more sessions for young people to be active and social together (including on Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings), making up for lost time during lockdown. We have responded to the financial hardship more of our community are now experiencing with the introduction of the Colombo donation station, getting essentials in the hands of those who need them. We have kept the cost of our gym membership fees down and remain the most affordable in the area, to make fitness as accessible as possible. We have supported and encouraged seniors out of their homes again, with lunches, tea dances and weekly sessions such as our coffee morning and Feel Good Saturdays. This year we have expanded our ability to offer free gym memberships targeted at those in our community who would not otherwise access health and fitness activities.

investment to keep the building in good working order as it ages. We will be putting aside funds to do so, as well as seeking external funding.

New members to our gym have told us that they have been drawn to Colombo as a result of our “gym for good” approach. They appreciate that their monthly membership helps ensure others in the community, such as young people and seniors, can be supported to stay active and stay social. Across the next year we intend to lead with that message – that with every booking and every membership taken with Colombo you are investing back into your community.

We recognise that the challenges of financial hardship alongside mental health issues and recognised issues for our neighbourhood of child obesity and older people living with multiple long term health conditions makes Colombo’s role as a health and wellbeing hub a vital one.

We have seen some financial recovery from the very tough year we had previously, and the lockdowns which impacted our ability to operate and secure income ended. Our gym membership numbers are slowly recovering and hire of our outdoor sports facilities has returned to pre-pandemic levels. Nevertheless we continue to diversify our income streams and intend in the next year to continue to access more charitable funding, particularly around project based health and wellbeing work from the Centre.

Last year, we began a comprehensive Board renewal process based on skills requirements and increasing the diversity of our board. This year we appointed and onboarded and six new Trustees who have joined existing board members in building a long-term strategy for the future of the Charity. Some board members have reluctantly had to step back due to work pressures (including our prior Chair who remains on the board) so there may be an opportunity to make a smaller number of appointments in the coming year. The current board is fortunate to be able to draw upon a broad and deep range of expertise including finance and legal skills and expert members on relevant fields including leisure management, safeguarding, community development, volunteering, careers and education, youth work and working with older people.

In recent years we have been able to use the funds we have put aside into our sinking fund to undertake a complete refurbishment of our football pitches and multi-sport courts. These facilities are in use seven days a week from morning to evening and are used by a mix of local clubs and schools and commercial leagues and bookers. We have undertaken a condition survey of the Colombo Centre and have identified a number of areas that would benefit from

We look forward to a busy year ahead at the Centre, rebuilding, renewing, and sustaining alongside our community. We are alive to both the opportunities and challenges ahead, with our determination doubled to carve out opportunities for people of all ages and all abilities to get fit, have fun together and build new friendships as we begin to make plans to ensure our delivery of services at the Centre remains relevant, targeted, reliable, and sustainable.

Independent examiner’s report

I report to the management committee on my examination of the accounts of Colombo Street Community and Sport Centre for the year ended 31 March 2022.

This report is made solely to the management committee as a body, in accordance with the Charities Act 2011. My examination has been undertaken so that I might state to the Management Committee those matters I am required to state to them in an independent examiner’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charity and the Management Committee as a body, for my examination, for this report, or for the opinions I have formed.

Since the Company’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accounts in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

  1. Accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or

  1. The accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view’ which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or

  2. The accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities.

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

1. Accounting policies

a) Statutory information

The registered office address is Coin Street neighbourhood centre, 108 Stamford Street, London, SE1 9NH.

b) Basis of preparation

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) – (Charities SORP FRS 102), The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy or note.

c) Public benefit entity

The Charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.

d) Going concern

Since the issues faced by COVID-19 lockdown, Colombo has demonstrated a gradual but established recovery in membership and room hire. Hatfields and Paris Gardens hire is approaching near to pre-pandemic levels. Since the year end Colombo has also had to navigate a heat wave and rail strikes which have impacted them and now the cost of living crisis and escalation of utility bills. The forecast has been stress tested with these challenges in mind, taking into account also the potential presented by being able to offer low cost facilities, significant level of reserves and working capital available. Based on this information the Management Committee consider that there are no material uncertainties about the Charity’s ability to continue as a going concern.

e) Income

Income is recognised when the Charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and that 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, within the year £2,034 was claimed under the Job Retention Scheme, which is recognised in other income.

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

f) Donations of gifts, services and facilities

Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the Charity has control over the item or received the service, any conditions associated with the donation 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), volunteer time is not recognised in the financial statements.

On receipt, donated gifts, 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.

1. Accounting policies (continued)

g) Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds are donations and other incoming resources received or generated for the charitable purposes.

Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the Management Committee for particular purposes.

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

Resources expended are allocated to the particular activity where the cost relates directly to that activity. However, the cost of overall direction and administration of each activity, comprising the salary and overhead costs of the central function, is allocated to the Charity’s main activity of running the sports centre.

Where information about the aims, objectives and projects of the Charity is provided to potential beneficiaries, the costs associated with this publicity are allocated to charitable expenditure.

Governance costs are the costs associated with the governance arrangements of the Charity. These costs are associated with constitutional and statutory requirements and include any costs associated with the strategic management of the Charity’s activities.

j) Tangible fixed assets

Items of equipment are capitalised where the purchase price exceeds £500. Depreciation costs are allocated to activities on the basis of the use of the related assets in those activities. Assets are reviewed for impairment if circumstances indicate their carrying value may exceed their net realisable value and value in use.

Where fixed assets have been revalued, any excess between the revalued amount and the historic cost of the asset will be shown as a revaluation reserve in the balance sheet.

Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write down the cost of each asset to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life. The depreciation rates in use are as follows:

1. Accounting policies (continued)

k) 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.

l) 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.

m) 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.

n) Pensions

The charitable company offers employees an auto enrolment pension scheme to which they make contributions unless they choose to opt out. The pension cost charge represents contributions payable by the charitable company to the scheme. The charitable company has no liability under the scheme other than for the payment of those contributions.

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.
