## **Annual Report for Charities Commission 2020/2021** 

The Financial report covers the accounts September 2020 to August 2021 and have been prepared by Rachel Carter, our Finance Officer. (It is hard to compare figures like for like to last years as we were closed March 2020-July 2020 so I may refer back to 2018/2019 to compare with a “normal” year) 

## **Challenges Faced:.** 

• Our Nursery Funding that we received from Wokingham Borough Council for eligible 3 and 4  year olds increase by +£1699.45 but if we compare to 2019/2020 (pre covid) we were down -£2953.66 

• Fee’s are payments we receive for any non-funded children attending or if funding children attend extra hours. Although we were + £450.89 this year we were a huge -£6040.05 compared to 2018/2019 (pre-covid). Some children didn’t attend whilst some lockdown restrictions were in place resulting in a £600 loss in fees for the spring term. 

• 2 yr old funding that we received from Wokingham Borough Council for eligible 2 year olds increase by +£3063.33 and this is similar to 2018/2019 (pre-covid). Having more younger children ( 2 year olds) affects the number of children we can have in a session and so we either have to have more staff per session or less children per session due to Ofsted Ratio’s. 

• Overall our income was +£2218.96 which is good but if we compare to pre-covid 2018/2019 we were -£5692.81 

• Furlough funding ceased in Sept 2020 when pre-school fully reopened resulting in a £4500 loss of funding on the year. 

• Salaries have increase +£4049.54 this is mostly due to increase in minimium wage. 

• Rent has increase by +£2145.42 this is due to a rent increase by Earley town Council. We only rent the room for the minimum hours we need allowing for setting up and putting away at the start/end of the sessions. We have asked multiple times for a rent decrease as we are a registered charity and we are the main hirers of the community center but have never been successful and so we have to pay the going rate like everyone else. 

• IT costs are up £500 as we invested and upgraded our laptop which was essential. 

• Fundraising increase by  +£1178.82 however this is due to covid and last year we wasn’t able to fundraise like we usually do. Also once you take off the Fundraising/Tea Towel/ Merchandise costs off this we haven't made any fundraising profit this year compared to last year. 

• We will continue to claim gift aid on any eligible donations.  We 



claimed +£691.55 which is amazing. 


Continued single entry into Primary Schools: This means that the numbers drop significantly in July. The autumns terms numbers are very low resulting in us making a financial loss over the term, We also need to retain the 2 year olds as some move to a pre-school attached to a primary school once their 3 year old funding starts. Over the year our numbers do increase but we can only go on previous trends to predict numbers on register for the year. 

Increase in minimum wage: This is rising at a greater rate than we are receiving from the government for funding. This year it increase to £8.91 (from £8.72) and is expected to increase to £9.50 in April 2022. This affects our working fund due to significant increase in all salaries. 

Funding: The funding given by the government is not being raised at the same rate as the minimum wage. 

Overall, our income was £93708.58 for the year and our expenditure was £100649.87. Which means we overspent by £6941.29 overall. It has been a very challenging year with COVID still being part of our day to day life. 

Our working fund figure is £12345 which is a significant decrease on last year so we must remain cautious as our sessions and forecasted numbers are low and although they do normally increase, we cannot assume it and have to work within the facts we currently have.
