YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025 GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMELYT During thc financial ycar 24125, Trustccs and staff continucd thcir focus on 'orkIng towards thc main priority goals within thc Stratcgic Plan, rcflccting our mission statcmcnt of'working with our community to conncct ai)d thrivc" Kcy stratcgic goals includcd-
Improving sustainability by strcngthcning risk managcmcnt, incrcasing our rcscrvcs, continuing lo build unrcstriclcd rcvenue potcntial Continuing to dcvclop kcy priority scrviccs. particularly for childrcn and young pcoplc Strcngthcning and expanding our partnership working to incrcase community engagement & connection Improving centre premises and external areas Some of these goals would build on existirLg core strengths and include working with established or new partners to achieve the above Strategic Plan goals. Key actions during the year covered by this report should reflect these goals and assess key milestones achieved. Improving Sustainability.. Integral to our sustainability was the successful outCOiT)e of our Camd¢n's VCS "Community Partners" graiit of £85,000 awarded annually over a 7-year period from 2024125 through to March 2031. This underpinned the c¢ntr¢'s abiliiy to meet essential cor¢ costs and staffing. However, when factoring in th¢ annual rent to Camden of £31,700, the centre faced additional challenges in setting a budget which had to reflect realistic and achievable income levels (both restricted and unrestricted) which also demonstrated an increase in (unrestricted) reserves which have declined over the last 2 years. Trustees therefore have coinmitted to actively strengtheiiing risk imanagement and building financial resilience as a key priority. This included exploring options for remod¢lling our ¢urreni operaiional stru¢ture to create a inore agile and sustainable infrastructure to move fonvard with. The centre ivas fortunate in being aTh'arded an Impact & Resilience grant of £20,000 from the London Borough of Camden's VCS Community Partners Team, to help contribute towards this process. However. mid-way through th¢ year, th¢ process of r¢modelling was dramatically accelerat¢d by a sudden sharp decline in anticipated income within our nursery, dropping from £168,730 in 23124 down to £126.9I1 duriiig 24125. This was due to unprecedented and unexpectedly low take up of childcare places al Ilie start of the school lemi in Sepleinber - partly reflecling Ilie lower birth rate, changes to national fundiiig, both exacerbared by temporary local factors. Tliis sudden downturn thrust Trustees into actively cont<lining risk to the overall organisation and take imtnediate steps to address the situation. Sadly, this iiivolved a number of voluiilary and compulsory redundancies. Ho,ever, the reduced costs for the streamlined staffing team combined with reduced operational costs, enabled the nursery to remodel within a more sustainable provision which was already starting ro recover and rebalance by the end of the financial year. Ivhilst Trustees continued to closely imonitor the situation, a substantial rise in nuinbers iii Ilie remaiiiiiig Inonihs uliimately meanr Trustees avoided closure ofihe iiursery which has been the fate of oiliers locally ai)d elsewliere. It 'as, liowever, a stark reininder of the need lo eontinue to rebuild our reserves as a rop priority lo absorb such unexpected shocks iii future. In response to tlll's financial shock to our current low reserve levels, the CEO and Trustees were fortunate lo work with the Camden VCS team to agree a re-profiling of our community partners grant to enable Trustees lo steady our finances, avoid further deficit and work towards rebuilding reserves w'ithin a longer-tem] centre-wide more sustainable operational structure. Although our end of year finances demonstrate only a rnodest rise in our reserves at the end of March 25 (£30,336) this must take into Lonsideration the short-temi cost of remodelling against longer-temi sustainability reduced risk. This enabled the centre to set a more positive fonvard-looking budget for 25126 and 26127.

Conslitutioiially, the cenlre's overarching aiin is to'improve the quality of life for local residents" Whilst the centre has developed, grown and adapted a wide range of qervices and activiti¢s over the past 42 years, there is always a strong element of social value and cotllmunity engagement to achieve this aim. Following our Strategic Review, our more updated vision and mission is to '%vork with the local community lo connect and thrive" This is particularly more so followiiig the substantial redevelopment in the local area, ensuring the existing and n¢w community connects and that those people who need extra support due to the cost-of-living challenges are supported within an ethos of equality and inclusion. The centre strives to deliver good quality accessible services, which aims to reflect diversity within ihe community at all levels, including within our Trustees, staff team, users and partner8. We aim to address economic disadvantage by ensuring as many services are delivered free or at an atyordable rate to ensure everyone can aecess and benefit from our activities on offer. This guiding principle Lan be demonstrated through the free places and affordable fees in our Ofsted Registered early years, nursery, or supporting those who are at risk from food poverty with the provision of food parcels and household goods at our weekend Food Hub. Our ESOL classes enable those whose first language is not English to gain sufficient skills which can help with gaining a job, accessing Se,ices, or feeling more connected within their community.

PARTNERSHIPS & COLLABOILITION: Sidings thrives on Inany valuable partnerships. Our Early Years Nursery receives ongoing support and links with C.ainden's Early Years Advisory and Inclusion Teams, who provide advice iii curricula development and support for young children with special needs. We are active members of Camden's North Area Youth Partnership as well as Young Camden Foundation which enables us to access funding and traii)ing opportunities to further develop our work with children and young people aged 5 - 18 years. As the yearprogressed, our Youth Club developed stronger relalionships with non-camden based partners such as London Youth and Jack Petchey Foundation to pron]ote sports and social action projects for our youth mcmbers ( I1-18's). We also received a donation from Dutch & Dutch Estate agents (£500) towards Xmas holidays activities, and also a small graiii froin Laiidsec (£2,000). Camden has a vibrant voluntary and community sector and Sidings is a founder member of C4 (Camden Cominunity Ceiitre's Consortium) which provides a collective i'oiLe for Loininunity centres in Camden. As well as being a peer support forum from other centres, C4 links up with other major VCS infrastructural support agencies such as Voluntary Action Camden, Volunteer Centre Camden, and Young Camden Foundation to create a platforni for discussion and strategic decision-making for the VCS at a borough-wide level. Camden's Community Partners Team continues lo offer invaluable support to Sidings as one of their recognised coinmunily panners. However, it is equally important to develop local networks and encourage wider engagement with residents, eoinmunily groups, schools, faith groups and local businesses. This is Inost strongly demonstrated through the wonderful work of our Food Hub (West Hainpstead Community Food Hub) which has been based at Sidings since August 2020. The Food Hub ¢ontinues to be underpinned by an amazing group of Voluntee Thho between them help collect. sort and provide 120-130 food parcels eTrery week lo those who need support with food and other household goo(ts. As the Cost-of-Living has continued to impact on those with low income, there has been increasing support from a vari¢ty of local businesses such as Paramount Estate Agents, local faith groups, and surplus food providers such as the Felix Project and City Flarve5t. Most importantly, the Ilub Lontinues to attract a wide spectrum of volunteers from within the community, which is intergenerational and from a variety of sectors, enabling local people to come together to contribute to the well-being of their community. It is also used by som¢ younger people for their Duke of Edinburgh awards programme. PROIIqOTILNG ORGALNISATIOLNAL QUALITY AIYD WELL-BEILYG: As well as ensuring good governance, the Centre is committed to maintaining a high standard of organisational well-being for our Tr'alued staff team.

The centre aiins to have a ininimum of 25 % or 3 months, worth of financial committnents in the bank at all times - with an ultimate aim of building up reserves ,hereVer possible. Within this, the Centre always has careful regard for continuation of funding linked to continuutll of service and overall funding to ensure the cei)tre is a "going concern" FINANCIAL REVIEW 2024125: The Statement of Financial Activities shows income for the year of £468,252 (231234.. £458,296) and total expenditure of £463,319 (23124.. £500,225 1. Taking iiito account all accrued balances, thc total reserves at the end of the MdfLh 2025 were £30,336 {23124= £25,403). Of the tutal expcnditurc, £398,724 (2024: £405,302) was restricted and £64,595 (2024: £94,923) was unrestricted. At the end of the year, this shows an increase of income and lowering of spend in comparison to the previous year (2024) as strategies to rebalance and increase reserves started to take effect. RESERVES In response lo the opeiiiiig lo, level of reserves of £25,403 at the start of 24125, Trustees recogiiised an urgent need to reverse Ilie downward deficit rrend oli reserves and Inaintain our position as a going Loncern.

This included working to continue to expand our rcvenue from donations of £33 J86 24125 (23124: £32,258) which would also strengthen our lotial profile to those residents and businesses new to the neighbourhood. Ovcr the coursc of 24125 strategies were dcveloped for significantly increasing our markcting profile and online presence to attract private sector funding and donations. Although the centre has rcduced spending where possible and staffing structurcs have bccn stieamlined as staff have left over the last 12 montl)s, senior staff and Trustees face the ongoing challcnge to carcfully balance lowering costs and risk against the need to maintain sufficient statTing levels ivith appropriate skills. Equally important is ensuring prcmises are clean and well maintained, and that compliance requircmcnts are met lo provide a good quality of service delivery and user expericncc.

Thc financial reporting framework that ha5 bccn applicd in thcir prcparation is applicable law and Unit¢d Kin¥dom Accounting Standards, in¢ludin¥ Trinancial Rcporting Standard 102.. The Financial Rcporting Standd applicablc in the UK and Rcpublic of Ircland (Unitcd Kin¥dom Gcncrally AcLepted A¢c'uunlin¥ PraLtILe). Opinion on ftinaneial statements In our opinion thc fillclaI statcmcnts.. give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31 March 2025 and of ils incomc and cxpcnditurc for thc ycar thcn cndcd.. have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and have been prcpared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006. Basis for opinion We conducted our audit in accordance with Inlemational Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAS {UK)) and applicable law. Our resp)nsibililies under those standards are further described in the Auditor"s responsibilities for the audit of the financial staleinents section of our report. We are independent of the Charity in accordan¢e with the ethical requiremenls that are relevant to our audit of the finan¢ial slatemenls in the UK, includin¥ tlie 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 appropi'iate to provide a basis for our opinion. Conclusions relating to going concern In auditing the financial qtatement8, we h&v¢ ¢oncluded that the trustees us¢ of the going ¢on¢¢rn basis of accounling in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material Iincertainties 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. Other information The trustees are responsible for the other infonnation. The other inforn)ation comprises the inf0mtIOn 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 infonnation and, except to the extent othenvise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
Independent Auditor's Report To the members of The Sidings Community Centre In connection with our audit of thc fiiiancial 5tatemcnt5. our responsibility is lo rcdd the othcr infonnation and, in doing so, consider whcther the other inforn]dtion is materially inconsistcnt with Ihc findncial stateincnt5 or our knowlcdgc obtained in the audit or otherwise appe to be materially mis5tatcd. If wc idcntify such matcrial incon5i5tcncic5 or appent matcrial misstatcinent5, wc arc rcquircd lo dctcnninc whcthcr therc is a niatcridl misstatemcnt in thc financial statcmcnls or a material inisstatcment of thc other infonnation. If, ba5cd un thc work we havc pcrformed, wc concludc that Ihcrc is a matcrial misstatcincnt of this other infonnalion, we are required lo report that fact. We have nothing lo report in this regard. Opinion on other matter prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit.. the inforniation given in the truslees, report (incorporating the directors, report) for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements- 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 ot the knowledge and understanding ol'the Charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audi¢ we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees, Anniial Report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you it., in our opinion.. 8¢dequate accounting records have not been kept or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us,. or thc financial statcmcnts arc not in agrccmcnt with thc accountirLg rccords and rcturns; or certain disclosures of trustees" remuneration specified by law are not made- or we have not received all the inforniation and explanations we require for our audit. Responsibilities of the trustees As explained more fully in the Trustees, Responsibilities StatemenL the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes ofcompany law} are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satiqfied that they give a true and fair view and for such internal control as they detennine 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. 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 Inisslatement, whether due to fraud or eor, and ro issu¢ 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 ststements. 12

The Sidings Community Centre (Company Limited By Guarantee) Notes to the Financial Statements Year ended 31 March 2025
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. The trustees do not consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period.
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 ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ 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.
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 recognised so refer to the trustees’ annual report for more information about their contribution.
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.
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.

1 Accounting policies
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 the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the charity’s work or for specific projects being undertaken by the charity.
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 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 charity and its and activities. These costs have been allocated between cost of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities.
i) Operating leases
Rental charges are charged on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.
j) Tangible fixed assets
All fixed assets are initially recorded at cost. Items costing less than £1,000 each are not capitalised, but written off as expense. Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an asset, less its estimated residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:
Fixtures, fittings & equipment - 15% reducing balance
k) Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

1 Accounting policies
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) 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.
o) Pensions
Please refer to trustees report for pensions' policy.
