Summary of
the purposes
of the charity
as set out in
its governing
document		 Para
1.17		 The purposes of the charity, as set out in its governing document, are to
advance the education and development of children under statutory school age
by providing a safe, inclusive and stimulating preschool environment. The
charity seeks to promote high-quality early years education through play-based
learning in accordance with the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS),
supporting children’s physical, emotional, social and intellectual development.
The charity exists to benefit the local community by making early education
accessible to all families, regardless of background, need or circumstance.
Central to the charity’s purpose is the creation of a warm, family-centred
environment in which staff, children and parents feel valued, respected and
supported. The preschool places strong emphasis on positive relationships,
with staff working collaboratively and treating one another and families as part
of a wider preschool community.
The charity also aims to strengthen community connections by engaging
parents as active partners in their children’s learning and encouraging
involvement through the volunteer trustee committee. The committee plays an
integral role in the governance and sustainability of the charity, and the
preschool seeks to involve as many parents as possible in shaping and
supporting its work.
In furtherance of its charitable aims, the preschool works closely with local
organisations, including the church and community groups, to support families
who may require additional help. The charity also collaborates with external
professionals such as speech and language therapists, health visitors and
SEND specialists to ensure that children with additional needs receive
appropriate support. These partnerships enable the preschool to fulfil its
purpose of promoting the wellbeing, development and inclusion of every child
within a supportive and community-focused environment.

identified in		 Para
1.17 and
1.19		 During the year, the charity continued to provide high-quality early years
education and care for children aged two to four, in line with the Early Years
Foundation Stage (EYFS). The preschool delivered a broad and stimulating
curriculum designed to support children’s physical, emotional, social and
intellectual development. Activities included art and craft, music and movement
sessions in the nearby school hall, outdoor play, cooking, water and messy
play, gardening, information technology, role-play, phonics, early mathematics,
story time, singing, mark-making, treasure hunts and themed learning
experiences. Children also benefited from opportunities to care for living things,
including looking after the preschool tortoise and observing tadpoles, helping
them develop empathy, responsibility and an understanding of the natural
world.
The preschool further enriched children’s learning through special themed
the accounts. weeks, including ‘People Who Help Us’, during which parents and carers
working in community roles such as firefighters, nurses, midwives, police
officers and other public-service professions visited the setting. These sessions
helped children learn about the wider world, understand community roles and
recognise the people who help keep them safe.
To support its charitable purpose of benefiting the local community, the
preschool welcomed families from all backgrounds and provided additional
support to those who needed it. Staff worked closely with parents and carers,
offering guidance, signposting and an open-door approach to communication.
The preschool collaborated with local organisations, including the church, to
ensure families experiencing challenges could access appropriate help. Staff
also worked in partnership with external professionals such as speech and
language therapists, health visitors and SEND specialists to support children
with additional needs and ensure early intervention.
The charity strengthened community engagement through participation in
major local events, including the Yateley Lion May Fayre, the Christmas Stall
Fayre and other community celebrations. These events, alongside the
preschool’s own fundraising activities such as quiz nights, the annual summer
fete, raffles, cake sales and participation in the Twilight Run at Blackbushe
Airport, fostered community cohesion and generated essential income to
support the preschool’s charitable work and enhance the learning environment.
The preschool provided funded early education places for eligible
two-year-olds and for all three- and four-year-olds, including extended (30
hours) funding for working families. Additional hours were offered on a
fee-paying basis. Flexible drop-off and collection times supported working
parents, and prospective families were welcomed for visits throughout the year.
Staff maintained high standards of professional practice through ongoing
training in safeguarding, first aid, health and safety, FGM awareness and
SEND, as well as participation in local early years networks and transition
meetings with schools. Parents were encouraged to engage with their child’s
learning through stay-and-play sessions, weekly communications and
opportunities to join the volunteer trustee committee, which plays a vital role in
the governance and sustainability of the charity.
Through these activities, the charity demonstrably fulfilled its purpose of
advancing early years education and supporting the wellbeing and
development of children and families within the local community, thereby
delivering clear public benefit.

Policy on
grant making		 Para
1.38		 The charity does not operate a formal grant-making programme. However, in
line with its charitable purposes, the trustees may approve the use of restricted
or designated funds to provide limited support to families in need, where such
support directly furthers the charity’s aim of advancing the education and
wellbeing of children. Any such assistance is provided in partnership with local
organisations, including the church and community support services, and is
subject to trustee oversight to ensure fairness, transparency and compliance
with the governing document. Any grant funds given to families remains under
the authority of the committee and matters are strictly confidential.
Policy on
social
investment
including
program
related
investment		 Para
1.38		 The charity does not engage in social investment or programme-related
investment. All funds received by the charity are applied directly to furthering its
charitable purposes, namely the provision of early years education and support
for children and families within the local community. The trustees review all
expenditure to ensure it aligns with the charity’s objectives and does not
constitute investment activity.
Contribution
made by
volunteers		 Para
1.38		 The charity benefits significantly from the contribution of volunteers, who play
an essential role in supporting its governance, activities and community
engagement. The volunteer trustee committee is central to the effective
running of the preschool, providing strategic oversight, financial management,
fundraising support and operational guidance. Their commitment ensures that
the preschool continues to operate as a sustainable, community-led charity.
In addition to the trustees, many parents and carers volunteer their time
throughout the year to assist with fundraising events, community activities and
preschool projects. Volunteers supported events such as the Yateley Lion May
Fayre, the Christmas Stall Fayre, the annual summer fete, quiz nights, raffles,
cake sales and participation in the Twilight Run at Blackbushe Airport. These
contributions are vital in raising funds that enhance the learning environment
and help cover core costs.
Parents also contribute to the children’s learning experiences by taking part in
themed activities such as ‘People Who Help Us’, where those working in
community roles—including firefighters, nurses, midwives, police officers and
other public-service professionals—visit the preschool to share their expertise.
These volunteer contributions enrich the curriculum and strengthen the
preschool’s connection with the wider community.
The trustees wish to record their sincere thanks to all volunteers for their time,
enthusiasm and commitment. Their support is invaluable and makes a
significant difference to the quality of provision and the continued success of
the charity.
Other The trustees wish to highlight the strong sense of community that underpins
the preschool’s work. Yateley Community Preschool continues to operate as a
warm, family-centred setting where staff, parents, carers and children support
one another and contribute to a positive, nurturing environment. The trustees
recognise the dedication of the staff team, whose commitment, teamwork and
care are central to the success of the charity.
The preschool also values its close relationships with local organisations,
including the church and community groups, which help ensure that families
experiencing difficulties can access additional support. These partnerships
strengthen the charity’s ability to meet the needs of the community and uphold
its inclusive ethos.
The trustees further acknowledge the significant contribution made by the
volunteer committee and parent helpers throughout the year. Their involvement
in governance, fundraising, community events and enrichment activities
enhances the preschool’s provision and supports its long-term sustainability.
The charity remains committed to continuous improvement, community
engagement and the delivery of high-quality early years education for the
benefit of children and families in Yateley and the surrounding area.

Achievements and Performance

Summary of
the main
achievements
of the charity,
identifying the
difference the
charity’s work
has made to
the
circumstances
of its
beneficiaries
and any wider
benefits to
society as a
whole.		 Para
1.20		 During the year, the charity continued to deliver high-quality early years
education and care, creating a warm, nurturing and community-centred
environment in which children aged two to four could learn, grow and thrive.
Both staff and trustees emphasised the strength of the preschool’s “family
feel”, with the manager noting that the team “carry each other and support
each other and love each other,” creating a setting where children experience
adults modelling empathy, teamwork and joy.
The preschool achieved significant improvements to its learning environment
and curriculum. Staff reviewed curriculum goals throughout the year and
introduced new initiatives such as weekly yoga sessions and a new dome
climbing frame to support gross motor development. A new sensory area was
created following investment in interactive resources, bubble lamps and light
boxes, providing valuable sensory experiences for children with a range of
needs.
Children benefited from a rich and varied curriculum, including outdoor play,
messy play, cooking, gardening, role-play, phonics, early mathematics,
storytelling and themed learning. Opportunities to care for living things—such
as the preschool tortoise and observing tadpoles—helped children develop
empathy, responsibility and curiosity about the natural world.
The charity also strengthened children’s understanding of the wider
community through special events such as ‘People Who Help Us’, where
parents working in public-service roles (including firefighters, nurses,
midwives and police officers) visited the preschool to share their expertise.
These experiences broadened children’s knowledge of the world and
highlighted the importance of community helpers.
Fundraising remained a major achievement and a vital source of income. The
Chair highlighted that fundraising “creates possibilities” by enabling
investment in resources, staff development and enriched learning
experiences. The preschool community took part in a wide range of events,
including the Twilight Run—where staff dressed as superheroes on one of
the hottest days of the year—and the April’s Afar walking challenge, during
which staff and parents collectively walked over 1,200 miles.
The charity also played an active role in major local events such as the
Yateley Lion May Fayre, the Christmas Stall Fayre and the annual summer
fete. These events strengthened community cohesion, allowed past families
to reconnect with the preschool and generated essential funds to support the
charity’s sustainability.
Significant improvements were made to the physical environment. The
preschool refreshed and reorganised its indoor space over the summer,
painting walls, moving furniture and enhancing learning areas. A successful
Tesco Blue Token award provided £1,000 towards a new roof for the outdoor
woodworking and construction area, improving accessibility in all weathers.
The charity also navigated challenges, including inflation and rising costs.
The Chair noted that the committee approved an increase in staff wages to
recognise the dedication of the team and support their wellbeing during
financially difficult times. This decision reinforced the charity’s commitment to
fairness, stability and valuing its workforce.
Staff changes were managed sensitively, with long-standing team members
moving on after many years of service and new staff joining with “fresh eyes,
new enthusiasm and lots of ideas.” Despite these transitions, the preschool
maintained continuity, stability and a strong sense of community.
The charity’s achievements extended beyond the children to the wider
community. Volunteers—particularly the parent-led committee—played a
crucial role in governance, fundraising and supporting events. The Chair
emphasised the “power and joy of volunteering,” highlighting how it builds
friendships, strengthens community ties and enriches the preschool
environment.
Through these achievements, the charity made a demonstrable difference to
its beneficiaries by promoting children’s confidence, communication,
independence, wellbeing and readiness for school. The preschool’s

community-centred ethos, strong partnerships with families and commitment to continuous improvement contributed to wider social benefit, strengthening community connections and supporting families during a challenging economic period.

Achievements
against
objectives set		 Para
1.41		 1. Maintain and enhance the quality of early years education The preschool
successfully delivered a rich, stimulating curriculum aligned with the EYFS.
Staff reviewed curriculum goals throughout the year and introduced new
initiatives, including weekly yoga sessions and a new dome climbing frame to
support gross motor development. A new sensory area was created with
interactive resources, bubble lamps and light boxes, significantly enhancing
provision for children with sensory needs. These improvements supported
children’s confidence, communication, independence and readiness for
school.
2. Strengthen the preschool’s community-centred ethos The charity continued
to foster a strong sense of belonging and partnership with families. The
manager described the preschool as a “preschool family,” where staff “carry
each other and support each other and love each other,” modelling positive
relationships for children. Parents were actively involved in events,
volunteering and themed activities such as ‘People Who Help Us’, where
those working in public-service roles visited to share their expertise. This
strengthened children’s understanding of the world and deepened community
connections.
3. Improve and refresh the learning environment Significant improvements
were made to both indoor and outdoor spaces. Over the summer, staff
reorganised and refreshed the room, painting walls, updating furniture and
enhancing learning areas. A successful Tesco Blue Token award provided
£1,000 towards a new roof for the outdoor woodworking and construction
area, improving accessibility in all weathers. These changes created a more
engaging, inclusive and stimulating environment for all children.
4. Support staff wellbeing, development and stability Despite staff changes,
the charity maintained a stable, committed team. New staff brought “fresh
eyes, new enthusiasm and lots of ideas,” while long-standing members
continued to provide continuity and experience. The committee approved a
staff wage increase in response to inflation, recognising the dedication and
professionalism of the team. This decision supported morale, retention and
the overall quality of provision.
5. Strengthen financial sustainability through fundraising and community
events Fundraising remained essential to the charity’s sustainability. The
preschool community took part in the Twilight Run, April’s Afar walking
challenge (collectively walking over 1,200 miles), the Yateley Lion May Fayre,
the Christmas Stall Fayre, the summer fete and other events. These activities
raised vital funds for resources, equipment and improvements, while also
strengthening community cohesion and reconnecting with past families.
6. Support families and ensure inclusive access to early education The
preschool maintained an open-door approach, offering guidance, signposting
and emotional support to families. Staff worked closely with external
professionals—including speech and language therapists, health visitors and
SEND specialists—to ensure early identification and support for children with
additional needs. This holistic approach improved outcomes for children and
strengthened the wellbeing of families.
Through these achievements, the charity met or exceeded its objectives for
the year, delivering clear and demonstrable benefits to children, families and
the wider community.
Performance The charity performed strongly against its fundraising objectives for the year,
successfully delivering a wide range of events and initiatives that generated
essential income to support the preschool’s sustainability and enhance the
of fundraising
activities
against
objectives set		 Para
1.41		 learning environment. Fundraising remained a vital component of the charity’s
financial strategy, as the preschool receives no additional income beyond
government funding and fees.
The preschool community demonstrated exceptional commitment through
participation in major fundraising challenges. Staff and parents took part in
the April’s Afar walking challenge, collectively exceeding the target of 1,200
miles and raising significant funds to support resources and improvements.
Staff also completed the Twilight Run dressed as superheroes, despite
extreme heat, demonstrating the dedication and enthusiasm that underpin the
charity’s fundraising success.
The charity also delivered strong performance at key community events,
including the Yateley Lion May Fayre, the Christmas Stall Fayre and the
annual summer fete. These events not only raised vital funds but also
strengthened community cohesion and provided opportunities to reconnect
with past families. The May Fayre, in particular, continued to be a major
contributor to the charity’s fundraising income despite the long hours and
bank holiday timing.
Additional fundraising activities—including raffles, cake sales, quiz nights and
themed events—further contributed to the charity’s income. The preschool
also benefited from external schemes such as the Tesco Blue Token
programme, securing £1,000 to improve the outdoor woodworking and
construction area.
Overall, the charity met and, in several areas, exceeded its fundraising
objectives. The funds raised enabled the preschool to invest in new
equipment, enhance the learning environment, support staff development and
maintain high-quality provision despite rising costs and inflationary pressures.
The trustees recognise the invaluable contribution of volunteers, parents and
staff, whose commitment and generosity made these achievements possible.
Investment
performance
against
objectives		 Para
1.41		 The charity does not currently hold any investment assets and therefore has
no investment performance to report for the year. All reserves are held in
standard bank accounts to ensure capital security and immediate access to
funds.
However, in response to rising costs and the need to strengthen long-term
financial stability, the trustees have agreed to explore the potential for low-risk
charitable investments during the coming year. This exploratory work will
focus on options that are appropriate for small charities, align with the
charity’s risk appetite, and comply fully with Charity Commission guidance on
investing charitable funds.
Any future investment decisions will only be made where they clearly support
the charity’s objectives, protect the charity’s assets, and contribute to the
long-term sustainability of the preschool. The trustees will continue to review
the charity’s financial position regularly to ensure that all funds are managed
responsibly and in the best interests of beneficiaries.
Other The trustees wish to acknowledge the exceptional dedication of the staff
team, whose commitment, stability and enthusiasm continue to be central to
the success of the preschool. The strong relationships within the team create
a nurturing, positive environment that directly benefits the children and
contributes to the charity’s reputation as a warm, community-centred setting.
The trustees also recognise the invaluable contribution of volunteers,
including the parent-led committee and the many families who support
events, fundraising activities and enrichment opportunities throughout the
year. Their involvement strengthens the charity’s governance, enhances the
children’s experiences and reinforces the preschool’s role at the heart of the
local community.
The preschool continues to maintain strong partnerships with local
organisations, including the church and community groups, enabling families
to access additional support when needed. These relationships help ensure
that the charity can respond effectively to the needs of the community and

uphold its inclusive ethos. Looking ahead, the trustees intend to explore opportunities to strengthen the charity’s long-term financial resilience, including reviewing the potential for low-risk charitable investments. This work will be undertaken carefully and in line with Charity Commission guidance, with the aim of supporting the sustainability of the preschool for future generations. The trustees remain committed to continuous improvement, community engagement and the delivery of high-quality early years education for the benefit of children and families in Yateley and the surrounding area.

Financial Review

Review of the
charity’s
financial
position at the
end of the
period		 Para
1.21		 At the end of the financial period, the charity reported a deficit. This outcome
reflects the ongoing financial pressures faced by early years settings,
including rising costs, inflation, and the increasing gap between government
funding rates and the true cost of delivering high-quality provision. Despite
careful budgeting and strong community support, core income from funding
and fees was not sufficient to fully cover operational costs.
During the year, the trustees approved several essential investments to
maintain the quality and safety of the learning environment. This included the
purchase of new tables and chairs for the children—an overdue and
necessary investment to replace ageing equipment and ensure that the
preschool continues to meet educational and safety standards. These
improvements were made in the best interests of the children and directly
support the charity’s aims.
The trustees also approved an increase in staff wages in response to the
rising cost of living and to recognise the dedication and professionalism of the
team. While this decision increased expenditure, it was considered essential
for staff wellbeing, retention and the continued delivery of high-quality early
years education.
Fundraising continued to play a vital role in supporting the preschool, with
events such as the April’s Afar challenge, the Twilight Run, the Yateley Lion
May Fayre and the Christmas Stall Fayre generating valuable additional
income. However, despite strong community engagement, fundraising alone
could not fully offset the increased costs faced during the year.
The trustees remain committed to strengthening the charity’s financial
resilience. In the coming year, they intend to review the reserves strategy and
explore the potential for low-risk charitable investments, in line with Charity
Commission guidance, to help stabilise long-term finances. The trustees will
continue to monitor the financial position closely and ensure that all decisions
support the sustainability of the preschool and the wellbeing of its
beneficiaries.
Statement
explaining the
policy for
holding
reserves
stating why
they are held		 Para
1.22		 The charity aims to hold reserves at a level that ensures financial stability,
supports cash flow throughout the year and provides a safeguard against
unexpected costs or fluctuations in income. The trustees consider it essential
to maintain reserves that allow the preschool to continue operating safely and
effectively in the event of unforeseen circumstances, such as staffing
changes, emergency repairs or delays in funding payments.
Reserves are also held to ensure that the charity can meet its legal and
financial obligations, including staff wages, rent and essential running costs,
even during periods of reduced income. The trustees review the reserves
level regularly to ensure it remains appropriate for the size and needs of the
preschool.
Given the financial pressures experienced during the year and the deficit
reported at year-end, the trustees intend to review the reserves policy in the
coming period. This will include exploring the potential for low-risk charitable
investments to support long-term financial resilience, while ensuring that any
investment decisions remain fully aligned with the charity’s objectives and risk
appetite.
The trustees remain committed to maintaining reserves at a level that
protects the charity’s operations, supports high-quality provision and ensures
the long-term sustainability of the preschool.
Amount of
reserves held		 Para
1.22		 At the end of the financial period, the charity held reserves at a level
considered appropriate to support cash flow, meet unexpected costs and
safeguard the continuity of the preschool’s operations. The trustees review
the reserves regularly to ensure they remain sufficient to manage fluctuations
in income, emergency expenditure and the financial risks associated with
running a small early years charity.
Reasons for
holding zero
reserves		 Para
1.22		 At the end of the financial period, the charity held a modest level of reserves.
These reserves are maintained to support cash flow throughout the year,
meet unexpected costs and ensure the continuity of the preschool’s
operations. The trustees consider it essential to hold reserves that allow the
charity to manage fluctuations in income, emergency expenditure and the
financial risks associated with running a small early years setting.
Although the charity ended the year with a deficit, the remaining reserves
provide a necessary financial buffer while the trustees work to rebuild and
strengthen the charity’s financial position in the coming year.
Details of fund
materially in
deficit		 Para
1.24		 At the end of the financial period, the charity’s unrestricted general fund was
in deficit. This position reflects the significant financial pressures faced by
early years settings, including rising operational costs, inflation, and the
widening gap between government funding rates and the actual cost of
delivering high-quality provision.
The deficit also reflects essential investment made during the year to
maintain the quality and safety of the learning environment, including the
purchase of new tables and chairs for the children. This was a long-overdue
and necessary expenditure to replace ageing equipment and ensure the
preschool continued to meet educational and safety standards.
The trustees are satisfied that the deficit does not indicate a long-term
financial risk but rather a short-term impact of essential spending combined
with increased staffing costs and rising prices. The trustees have already
taken steps to strengthen financial planning for the coming year, including
reviewing the reserves policy, monitoring expenditure closely, and exploring
opportunities to rebuild reserves through fundraising and potential low-risk
charitable investments.
The trustees are confident that the deficit will be addressed in the next
financial period and that the charity remains able to meet its obligations and
continue delivering high-quality early years education.
Explanation of
any
uncertainties
about the
charity
continuing as a
going concern		 Para
1.23		 The trustees recognise that there are uncertainties that may affect the
charity’s ability to continue as a going concern. The preschool is experiencing
lower projected headcounts due to demographic fluctuations in the local area,
including a reduced number of children born in recent years. This presents a
financial risk, as lower enrolment directly impacts income from government
funding and fees.
In addition, the charity faces rising staffing costs. The trustees have
implemented the statutory minimum wage increases and anticipate the need
to review staff pay again in September to ensure fairness, retention and
compliance with sector expectations. These increased costs place further
pressure on the charity’s financial position.
To mitigate these uncertainties, the trustees have introduced a more flexible
session structure that enables families to maximise their government-funded
entitlements. This includes offering additional bookable sessions that allow
parents to use their full entitlement while providing the preschool with greater
financial stability and more predictable income. This approach supports
families during a period of rising living costs while helping the charity manage

fluctuating headcounts. The trustees are monitoring the financial position closely and reviewing budgets, staffing models and reserves to ensure the charity remains sustainable. While uncertainties remain, the trustees believe that the actions taken — combined with strong community support, committed staff and ongoing fundraising — provide a reasonable basis for the charity to continue operating for the foreseeable future.

The charity’s
principal
sources of
funds
(including any
fundraising)		 Para
1.47		 The charity’s principal sources of income are government early years funding
and parent fees. These form the core of the charity’s revenue; however, they
do not fully cover the true cost of delivering high-quality early years provision,
particularly in the context of rising operational costs and increased staffing
expenses.
Fundraising therefore remains an essential source of additional income. The
preschool benefits from a strong and supportive community, with events such
as the April’s Afar challenge, the Twilight Run, the Yateley Lion May Fayre,
the Christmas Stall Fayre and the summer fete contributing significantly to the
charity’s financial stability. These activities help fund essential resources,
improvements to the learning environment and enrichment opportunities for
the children.
The charity also receives smaller but valuable contributions through external
schemes such as the Tesco Blue Token programme and other
community-based initiatives. These funds support specific projects and help
enhance the preschool’s facilities.
In response to lower projected headcounts caused by demographic
fluctuations, the trustees have introduced a more flexible session structure
that enables families to maximise their government-funded entitlements. This
approach supports parents during a period of rising living costs while
providing the preschool with more predictable income and improved financial
stability.
Together, these income streams enable the charity to continue delivering
high-quality early years education, despite the financial pressures affecting
the sector.
Investment
policy and
objectives
including any
social
investment
policy adopted		 Para
1.46		 The charity does not currently hold any investment assets and therefore does
not operate an active investment portfolio. All funds are held in standard bank
accounts to ensure capital security and immediate access to cash for
operational needs.
The trustees recognise the importance of strengthening the charity’s
long-term financial resilience, particularly in light of rising operational costs,
fluctuating headcounts and increasing staffing expenses. As part of this, the
trustees intend to explore the potential for low-risk charitable investments
during the coming year. Any such exploration will be undertaken cautiously
and in full accordance with Charity Commission guidance on investing
charitable funds.
The primary objective of any future investment strategy will be to protect the
charity’s assets, support financial stability and ensure that funds continue to
be used to further the preschool’s charitable purposes. The trustees will only
consider investment options that are low-risk, ethical, and aligned with the
charity’s values as a community-focused early years setting.
At present, the charity has not adopted a formal social investment policy.
However, should the trustees proceed with any investment activity, they will
ensure that decisions are guided by the charity’s aims, risk appetite and duty
to act in the best interests of beneficiaries.
A description
of the principal
risks facing the		 Para
1.46		 The trustees have identified several principal risks that may affect the
charity’s ability to operate sustainably in the coming period. The most
significant risk relates to fluctuating and lower projected headcounts, driven
by demographic changes and reduced numbers of children born in recent
years. As government funding and fee income are directly linked to
charity attendance, lower enrolment presents a material financial risk.
The charity also faces rising staffing costs. Statutory wage increases have
already been implemented, and the trustees anticipate the need to review
staff pay again in September to ensure fairness, retention and compliance
with sector expectations. These increased costs place additional pressure on
the charity’s financial position, particularly in a climate where funding rates do
not reflect the true cost of delivering high-quality early years provision.
Inflation and rising prices for essential resources, utilities and consumables
continue to impact expenditure. Although fundraising provides valuable
supplementary income, it cannot fully offset these sector-wide financial
pressures.
To mitigate these risks, the trustees have introduced a more flexible session
structure that enables families to maximise their government-funded
entitlements. This approach supports parents during a period of rising living
costs while providing the preschool with more predictable income and
improved financial stability. The trustees are also strengthening budget
monitoring, reviewing the reserves policy and exploring opportunities to
rebuild reserves and consider low-risk charitable investments in the future.
The trustees will continue to monitor these risks closely and take appropriate
action to ensure the long-term sustainability of the preschool and the
continued delivery of high-quality early years education.
An additional operational and financial risk has arisen in relation to the
outdoor roof structure. Although the charity previously secured a grant
through the Tesco Community Tokens scheme to fund a new roof installation,
the project encountered significant installation issues which have resulted in
defects now requiring repair. These remedial works are necessary to ensure
the area remains safe and usable for the children, but they represent an
unplanned cost that places further pressure on the charity’s already stretched
finances. The trustees are currently exploring whether any elements of the
repair may be covered by insurance, in order to mitigate the financial impact
on the preschool.
Other The trustees wish to acknowledge the exceptional dedication and
professionalism of the staff team throughout the year. Their commitment,
stability and enthusiasm continue to be central to the success of the
preschool and to the high-quality experiences offered to the children. The
strong relationships within the team create a nurturing, positive environment
that directly benefits families and strengthens the charity’s reputation within
the community.
The trustees also recognise the invaluable contribution of volunteers,
including the parent-led committee and the many families who support
events, fundraising activities and enrichment opportunities. Their involvement
enhances the children’s experiences and reinforces the preschool’s role at
the heart of the local community.
The preschool continues to maintain strong partnerships with local
organisations, including the church and community groups, enabling families
to access additional support when needed. These relationships help ensure
that the charity can respond effectively to the needs of the community and
uphold its inclusive ethos.
The trustees remain committed to continuous improvement, community
engagement and the delivery of high-quality early years education. Looking
ahead, they intend to explore opportunities to strengthen the charity’s
long-term financial resilience, including reviewing the potential for low-risk
charitable investments in line with Charity Commission guidance.

Structure, Governance and Management

Description of
charity’s trusts:		 Yateley Community Preschool is a registered charity governed by a
constitution adopted in accordance with Charity Commission requirements.
The charity operates as a community-based early years setting and is
managed by a voluntary committee of trustees, the majority of whom are
parents or carers of children attending the preschool.
The trustees are responsible for the overall governance, strategic direction and
financial oversight of the charity. They work closely with the Preschool
Manager, who is responsible for the day-to-day running of the setting, staff
management, curriculum delivery and operational decision-making. This
structure ensures a clear separation between governance and management
while maintaining strong communication and accountability.
New trustees are appointed in accordance with the charity’s constitution,
typically at the Annual General Meeting. All trustees receive an induction to
ensure they understand their legal responsibilities, the preschool’s policies and
procedures, and the expectations of their role. Ongoing support is provided
throughout the year to ensure trustees can fulfil their duties effectively.
The charity’s activities are delivered in line with its charitable objects, which
focus on providing high-quality early years education and supporting the
wellbeing and development of children and families within the local community.
The trustees ensure that all decisions are made in the best interests of the
beneficiaries and that the charity complies with relevant legislation, including
the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework and Charity Commission
guidance.
Type of
governing
document
(trust deed,
royal charter)		 Para
1.25		 Trustees are appointed in accordance with the charity’s governing document.
The charity is managed by a voluntary committee of trustees who are elected
each year at the Annual General Meeting (AGM), which is attended by parents
and carers of children enrolled at the preschool. Committee members are
nominated and voted in by the parent body, ensuring that governance remains
community-led and reflective of the families the charity serves.
Staff members are not involved in the election or appointment of trustees, in
order to maintain a clear separation between governance and operational
management. This structure ensures that trustees can exercise independent
oversight while the Preschool Manager and staff team focus on the day-to-day
running of the setting.
Newly elected trustees receive an induction to help them understand their legal
responsibilities, the preschool’s policies and procedures, and the expectations
of their role. Ongoing support is provided throughout the year to ensure
trustees can fulfil their duties effectively and in line with Charity Commission
guidance.
How is the
charity
constituted?
(e.g
unincorporated
association,
CIO)		 Para
1.25		 The charity is constituted as an unincorporated association and is governed by
a constitution adopted in accordance with Charity Commission requirements.
The constitution sets out the charity’s objects, governance arrangements,
trustee appointment procedures and the rules under which the preschool
operates.

including details
of any
constitutional
provisions e.g.

or name of any
person or body		 Para
1.25		 Trustees are appointed in accordance with the charity’s governing document.
The charity operates as a community-based unincorporated association, and
trustees are elected each year at the Annual General Meeting (AGM). The
AGM is attended by parents and carers of children enrolled at the preschool,
who are the members of the charity and hold the right to vote.
Trustees (committee members) are nominated and elected by the parent body.
Only parents and carers are entitled to vote or stand for election, ensuring that

serves. Staff members are not involved in the election, appointment or voting
process, maintaining a clear separation between governance and operational
entitled to

Policies and
procedures
adopted for the
induction and
training of
trustees		 Para
1.51		 The charity has procedures in place to ensure that all trustees are
properly inducted and assessed for suitability before taking up their
roles. As part of the induction process, all trustees are required to
complete an enhanced DBS check and submit an EY2 form to Ofsted
for approval. Trustees cannot take part in decision-making until these
suitability checks have been completed and confirmed.
New trustees are given an overview of the preschool’s operations,
safeguarding responsibilities, staffing structure and the Early Years
Foundation Stage (EYFS) requirements through an introductory
meeting with the Chair and the Preschool Manager. Trustees are also
briefed on their duties under charity law, including financial oversight,
governance responsibilities and the need to act in the best interests of
beneficiaries.
Ongoing support is provided throughout the year through regular
committee meetings and access to relevant guidance from the Charity
Commission and local early years networks. Trustees are encouraged
to ask questions and seek clarification whenever needed to ensure
they can fulfil their roles effectively.
These procedures ensure that trustees, many of whom are volunteers
with no prior governance experience, receive the essential
safeguarding checks, regulatory approval and practical support
required to carry out their responsibilities.
The charity’s
organisational
structure and
any wider
network with
which the
charity works		 Para
1.51		 The charity is managed by a voluntary committee of trustees who are
responsible for the overall governance, strategic direction and financial
oversight of the preschool. The trustees delegate the day-to-day
running of the setting to the Preschool Manager, who oversees staff
management, curriculum delivery, safeguarding, operational decisions
and compliance with the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS). This
structure ensures a clear separation between governance and
management while maintaining strong communication and
accountability.
The Preschool Manager is supported by a team of qualified early years
practitioners who deliver the daily educational provision and ensure the
wellbeing, safety and development of the children. Staff report to the
Manager, who in turn reports to the trustee committee through regular
meetings and updates.
The charity operates independently and is not part of a national chain
or umbrella organisation. However, it maintains strong working
relationships with local community groups, including the church, local
schools, early years networks and family support services. These
partnerships help the preschool signpost families to additional support
when needed and ensure that the charity remains well-connected
within the local community.
The trustees also engage with external bodies such as Ofsted, the
local authority early years team and relevant safeguarding agencies to
ensure the preschool meets all regulatory requirements and maintains
high standards of practice.
Relationship
with any related
parties		 Para
1.51		 Ofsted
The preschool is registered with Ofsted and operates in full compliance
with the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) statutory framework.
Ofsted is responsible for inspecting the provision and assessing the
quality of education, safeguarding and leadership. The charity has no
financial or governance relationship with Ofsted beyond its regulatory
obligations.
Early Years Alliance
The charity engages with the Early Years Alliance for sector guidance,
training opportunities and updates on national early years policy. This
relationship is advisory only. The Alliance does not hold any authority
over the charity’s governance, finances or decision-making.
Local School- Cranford Park CofE
The preschool maintains positive working relationships with local
schools to support children’s transitions and share relevant information
that benefits families. These relationships are collaborative and
informal. Local schools or school boards do not have any role in
appointing trustees, managing the charity or influencing its
governance.
Local Authority Early Years Team
The charity works with the local authority for funding administration,
safeguarding guidance and early years support services. This
relationship ensures compliance with funding rules and access to
professional advice, but the local authority has no governance control
over the charity.
Other Summary
These relationships support the charity’s ability to deliver high-quality
early years provision, but none of the organisations listed are related
parties in a financial or governance sense. The charity remains fully
independent and governed solely by its elected trustee committee.

Funds held as custodian trustees on behalf of others

Description of the assets
held in this capacity		 The charity holds assets solely for the purpose of delivering
early years education and supporting the children and
families who use the preschool. These assets include
educational resources, furniture, play equipment, IT
equipment, and other materials required for the day-to-day
operation of the setting.
The charity also holds cash assets in its bank accounts,
which consist of operational funds, reserves and income
from fundraising activities. These funds are used to support
staffing costs, maintain the learning environment, purchase
resources and ensure the continued delivery of high-quality
early years provision.
All assets are owned by the charity as an unincorporated
association and are managed by the trustee committee on
behalf of the beneficiaries. No assets are held for the
personal benefit of trustees, staff or members.
Name and objects of the
charity on whose behalf the
assets are held and how this
falls within the custodian
charity’s objects		 All assets are held on behalf of Yateley Community
Preschool, the charity for which the trustee committee acts.
The charity’s objects, as set out in its governing document,
are to provide high-quality early years education and to
advance the development and wellbeing of children in the
local community through play-based learning opportunities.
The assets held by the trustees — including educational
resources, equipment, furnishings and financial reserves —
are used solely to further these charitable objects. All
expenditure and resource use directly support the delivery
of early years provision, the maintenance of a safe and
stimulating learning environment, and the effective operation
of the preschool.
No assets are held on behalf of any external organisation,
and no individual trustee, staff member or related party has
any beneficial interest in the charity’s property. All assets
are managed strictly in accordance with the charity’s
constitution and in the best interests of its beneficiaries.
Details of arrangements for
safe custody and
segregation of such assets
from the charity’s own assets		 All assets held on behalf of Yateley Community Preschool
are kept securely and are clearly segregated from the
personal property or finances of trustees, staff or volunteers.
Physical assets such as educational resources, equipment
and furnishings are stored on the preschool premises, which
are locked and alarmed when not in use. Access is
restricted to authorised staff and trustees.
Financial assets are held in the charity’s designated bank
accounts, which are operated in accordance with the
governing document and require appropriate authorisation
for payments. No trustee or staff member holds charity
funds in a personal account, and all income and expenditure
are recorded through the preschool’s accounting system to
ensure transparency and accountability.
The trustees maintain oversight of asset management
through regular financial reporting, inventory checks and
annual review of equipment and resources. These
arrangements ensure that all assets are safeguarded,
properly recorded and used solely for the charity’s
purposes.

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the above charity (“the Trust”) for the year ended 31/08/2025.

Responsibilities and As the charity's trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the basis of report accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”).

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have examiner's statement come to my attention in connection with the examination (other than that disclosed below *) which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:

the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or

the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or

the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.

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.
