## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Governing Document** 

The charity is constituted as a company limited by guarantee and is therefore governed by a Memorandum and Articles of Association, dated 25th March 1986 (updated as required), and registered with the Charity Commissioners on 3rd October 1986. 

## **Appointment, Induction and Training of Trustees** 

Trustees are sought prior to the AGM, via relevant organisations, targeted publicity, and nominations from the local community. A personal statement summarising key skills, relevant experience and reasons for nomination is required. When considering new trustees, the board has regard to the skills and expertise required for the organisation and its legal requirements under charity and company law. Trustees are elected and re-elected at the AGM, or co-opted during the year, in accordance with the Memorandum and Articles of Association. 

New trustee’s induction includes detailed information on their legal obligations under charity and company law, the content of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the committee and decision-making processes, the business plan and current and projected financial performance of the charity.  During induction, they meet key employees and other trustees. Trustees are encouraged to attend appropriate training to facilitate undertaking of their role and a contract with an HR service offers advisory seminars on employer’s good practice. An annual strategic review day is held in addition to regular trustee board meetings and email communication. Trustees are invited and encouraged to attend Camden consultations and to represent the centre at key events. 

## **Organisation** 

The charity is organised so that trustees meet regularly to provide strategic direction and development and oversee its affairs. Emails with key updates are regularly sent between meetings. The Centre Director is responsible for: ensuring trustees are fully informed of key changes in legislation and good practice; advise and implementation of policy, strategic direction and financial sustainability; adherence to all legal and financial requirements; and business and partnership development. An Operations & Project Delivery Manager is responsible for the daily running and administration of the charity and its activities, and an Income & Project Development Manager enables sustainability and innovation whilst ensuring and maintaining quality, outcomes, and outputs. The remaining staff are employed to deliver front-line services. 

## **Risk Management** 

The centre has an organisational risk management strategy which comprises: an annual review of the risks the charity may face; the establishment of systems, procedures, and actions to mitigate those risks identified in the plan; and the implementation of procedures and actions designed to minimise any potential impact on the charity should those risks materialise. From March 2020 the centre also has a Covid -19 Risk Assessment which is reviewed monthly. These strategies enable trustees to ensure the centre is able to discharge its responsibilities and commitments.

We provide information to users and the community on a wide range of matters, and signpost and refer them appropriately. It is a place people from diverse backgrounds come to socialise, learn, engage, and enjoy. Building community cohesion between communities to improve people's quality of life. We work in consultation and partnership with the local community and statutory and voluntary agencies in developing our programme and responding to emerging need and new initiatives.

Due to government Covid restrictions most of our activities could not take place in the centre building during the year. As many activities as possible were provided remotely via Zoom or telephone, and a restricted number of activities including our crèche, drop-in, Food Club, men’s fitness and colouring calm were provided in centre, in small socially distanced groups, when Covid-19 government restrictions allowed. 

## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE** 

2020-2021 was a very challenging year due to the Covid-19 epidemic and the effect this had on people’s lives and our community centre. We were very successful in quickly adapting our activities from in centre to remote provision, both by Zoom and telephone, to offer as many activities, support, and information as possible. We were also very successful in securing government and charitable trust Covid support grants and project funding to enable us to continually adapt our centre building and IT resources and expand our programme of activities to meet identified need and outcomes. 

Zoom classes included, exercise, yoga, tai chi, cooking, book club, afternoon tea, colouring calm, recycle art, IT support, stay and play, crèche, story time, rhyme time, choir, and dance. Additionally, we provided weekly/fortnightly telephone call support and information to our users; outreach support, advice, and referral for families with complex and layered needs; weekly updated website, and monthly newsletter with all our activities and information and links to other local activities and support and information; and Food Club providing essential weekly food to those most in need and volunteers shoppers for those who were shielding. 

The centre staff and board were actively involved in several key partnerships, funding bids and LBC consultations including LB Camden’s Strategic Partners, LB Camden Community Health Champions, Big Lottery Ageing Better project, Camden Community Centres Consortium (C4), LB Camden Abbey Road Regeneration Project, and Wates corporate partnership.

## **YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

which provides in depth information regarding the outcomes, quality, and benefits of our services. The centre has up to date policies and procedures in place to ensure high quality performance management and services. Overall, the centre achieves excellent performance reports from these quality systems with few recommendations for improvement. 

## **Local Partnership and Project Work** 

The centre is widely involved in collaborative and partnership work and develops further opportunities by being actively involved in new initiatives both locally, Camden-wide and nationally. Partnership working benefits our users as it identifies need and gaps in provision, prevents duplication of services and enables accurate referral and information regarding partnership organisations. It enables access to funding streams and increases our effectiveness and resilience through joint provision of services and the exchange of good practice, policies, and information. 

The Centre Director is a member of Camden Community Centres Consortium (C4) which meets regularly to develop strategy and joint working initiatives and funding opportunities. C4 is involved in consultation with Camden officers, councillors, and other stakeholders regarding key issues such as funding, leases, rental charges, health, regeneration projects, volunteering, corporate social responsibility, and community involvement. 

As previously mentioned, the centre is involved in key partnership work and funding programmes with LB Camden, Central and North West London NHS Foundation Trust, C4 and Age UK Camden. The centre also works in partnership with other local organisations to provide services which include the Felix Project, Mary Ward Centre, Restart, Master Gardeners, Wild About Hampstead Heath, The Challenge, Westminster Kingsway College, Street Bank, Good Gym, North London Cares, Age UK Camden for Good Neighbour Schemes, South Sudan Women’s Skills Development and Henna Asian Women’s Association to name but a few. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

The centre managed well financially during this challenging period of Covid-19 restrictions. Although we lost all centre-based rental income, we were very successful in securing government and charitable trust Covid support grants and project funding to enable us to quickly adapt our staff and centre programme to remote provision and expand our outreach and support to meet identified need and outcomes.  Income increased by 1.8 % to £347,968 whilst expenditure decreased by 12% to £274,886. 

The core annual grant from LB Camden remained static at £60,000 (excluding current rental allocation of £19,000), as did Camden Children’s Centre Services £40,000 annual contract for early years DropIns. A substantial part of the centre’s income, £75,000, was raised from government and charitable trust Covid-19 support grants. Project funding received included John Lyon’s Charity, £20,000, for our crèche and outreach programme; The National Lottery Community Fund, £25,000; Ageing Better in Camden, £20,000 (Big Lottery); Comic Relief, £14,332; The Hampstead Wells and Campden Trust, £9,208; and City Bridge Trust, £9,431 for our community activities programme. 

Annual expenditure decreased by 12% to £274,886 due to reduced staffing, project delivery, cleaning, rates, and refuge costs. Net income over expenditure for the year was £73,082 of which £21,108 is restricted income for our Community Activities Projects and £36,817 was designated to the Employee Costs and Pensions Fund.

**ABBEY COMMUNITY CENTRE COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE** 

## **TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT** 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

The main expenditure was employee costs totalling £228,500. Direct project costs, excluding employee salary costs, were £17,061. Support costs include Covid-19, office and equipment costs, £12,012; legal and professional fees, £6,724; audit fee, £4,420; cleaning £3,000; telephone and wi-fi, £1,666; and light & heat, £1,041. 

The total cumulative balance stands at £382,593. £116,347 is restricted funds, £161,817 is designated funds and £104,429 is unrestricted general funds. £22,779 is restricted for children’s services for under-threes; £83,241 is restricted for the community activities programme; and £10,327 for core costs. £161,817 is designated, £106,817 to the Employee Costs and Pension Fund which enables the employers to fulfil their contractual obligations, including pension, sick, maternity and redundancy pay, and inflationary uplift and salary increases; and £55,000 to the building rent and maintenance fund to cover repairs, rent, rates and development of resources. Our total reserves which include restricted, designated, and unrestricted funds equate to approximately 14 months running costs at projected staff and service provision for the next year. 

## **Reserves Policy Unrestricted Funds are needed to:** 

1. Meet organisational employee, legal, financial, health and safety requirements and obligations. 

2. Quickly Implement any changes in the above requirements. 

3. Enable implementation of short and long-term objectives and outcomes from our Business Plan. 

4. Enable a swift reaction to new and priority needs and demand and designate funding to projects at short notice. 

5. To cover employee costs; salary increments, pension, maternity, sick and redundancy pay. 

6. To cover core administration and support costs without which the centre could not function. 

## **Abbey Community Centre requires an adequate level of reserves to;** 

1. Meet the Charities Commission recommended good practice of having a minimum of 3 months and a maximum of 3 years running costs as financial reserves. The centre’s general unrestricted and undesignated reserves of £104,429 represent approximately 4 months current running costs. Our general unrestricted, (£104,429) and designated (£161,817) funds of £266,246 represent approximately 9.5 months current running costs Our total funds of £382,593, which include restricted, designated, and unrestricted funds equate to approximately 13.5 months current running costs. 

2. Meet all commitments if circumstances arise where the trustees are obliged to wind down the company, approximating to a minimum of 3 months running cost plus employee redundancy entitlement. The introduction by LB Camden of high rental charges for their community buildings has increased the need for this. The designated funds of £161,817 include costs for this. 

3. Meet the requirements of The Pensions Act 2007 whereby from 1st April 2019 we will contribute a minimum of 3% of a contributing employee’s salary. The designated employee fund of £106,817 includes the costs for this.

5. Provide for contingencies and risks which cannot be met from annual income when they arise. 

6. A fund of £10-15,000 to designate to special projects to quickly meet an identified need. 

7. To meet any short term statutory, legal or employee obligations such as staff sickness, maternity cover, IT renewal, building maintenance, or any cash-flow difficulties. 

The centre aims to maintain an appropriate level of reserves through fund-raising, income generation and diversification, and considering appropriate investment accounts. The Treasurer or Centre Director will include a report on the level of reserves at year end and steps will be taken to address any issues which may arise. The policy will be reviewed annually considering any changes in circumstances.

**ABBEY COMMUNITY CENTRE COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## Opinion 

We have audited the financial statements of Abbey Community Centre (the ‘Charity’) for the year ended 31st March 2021 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, statement of cash flows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of 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 Charity’s affairs as at 31st March 2021 and of its income and expenditure for the year then ended; 

•have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; 

•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 Charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRCʼs 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 trustees’ 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 charity'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 directors with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. 

10 



**ABBEY COMMUNITY CENTRE COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **Other information** 

The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. 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. 

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, 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 audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. 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 (incorporating the directors’ report) for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and 

•the trustees’ report (incorporating the directors’ report) have 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 Charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees’ Annual 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; 

•the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; 

•certain disclosures of trusteesʼ remuneration specified by law are not made; or 

•we have not obtained all the information and explanations necessary for the purposes of our audit. 

## **Responsibilities of the trustees** 

As explained more fully in the trusteesʼ responsibilities statement, 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 they 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 Charity’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 trustees either intend to liquidate the Charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

11 



**ABBEY COMMUNITY CENTRE COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **Our 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 extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud are set out below. 

In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, our procedures included the following: 

- We enquired of management, which included obtaining and reviewing supporting documentation, concerning the charity's policies and procedures relating to: 

   - identifying, evaluating, and complying with laws and regulations and whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance; 

   - Detecting and responding to the risks of fraud and whether they have knowledge of any actual, suspected, or alleged fraud; 

   - The internal controls established to mitigate risks related to fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations. 

- We inspected the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance. 

- We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework that the charity operates in, focusing on those laws and regulations that had a material effect on the financial statements or that had a fundamental effect on the operations of the charity from our professional and sector experience. 

- We reviewed the financial statement disclosures and tested these to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations. 

- We performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud. 

- In addressing the risk of fraud through management override of controls, we tested the appropriateness of journal entries and other adjustments, assessed whether the judgements made in making accounting estimates are indicative of a potential bias and tested significant transactions that are unusual or those outside the normal course of business.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: [www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities]. This description forms part of our auditor’s report. 

This report is made solely to the Charity’s members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Charity’s members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charity and the Charity’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

## **Abbey Community Centre (Company Limited By Guarantee)** 

## **Notes to the financial statements** 

**For the year ended 31 March 2021** 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **a) 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 - effective 1 January 2015) - (Charities SORP FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006. 

The charitable company meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy or note. 

## **b) Going concern** 

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern. 

## **c) 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 grants or grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred. Income received in advance for the provision of specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met. 

For legacies, entitlement is taken as the earlier of the date on which either: the charity is aware that probate has been granted, the estate has been finalised and notification has been made by the executor(s) to the charity that a distribution will be made, or when a distribution is received from the estate. Receipt of a legacy, in whole or in part, is only considered probable when the amount can be measured reliably and the charity has been notified of the intention to make a distribution. Where legacies have been notified to the charity, or the charity is aware of the granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is a treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material. 

## **d) 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 

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. 

## **e) Interest receivable** 

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank. 

## **f) Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of charity. Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose. Restricted funds are donations which

## **Notes to the financial statements** 

## **For the year ended 31 March 2021** 

## **1 Accounting policies (continued)** 

**g) 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: 

Costs of raising funds comprise of trading costs and the costs incurred by the charitable company in inducing third parties to make voluntary contributions to it, as well as the cost of any activities with a fundraising purpose. Expenditure on charitable activities includes the costs of delivering services and other activities undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs. Other expenditure represents those items not falling into any other heading. Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred. 

## **h) Allocation of support costs** 

- Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include back office costs, finance, personnel, payroll and governance costs which support the activities. These costs have been allocated between cost of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities. The bases on which support costs have been allocated are set out in note 6. 

## **i) Tangible fixed assets** 

Items of equipment are capitalised where the purchase price exceeds £500. 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: 

- ˜ Fixtures and fittings 25% 

- ˜ Computer equipment 25% 

## **j) 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. 

## **k) 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. 

## **l) 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.
