## **Trustees' Report** 

The trustees present the annual report together with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2021. 

## **Objectives and activities** 

## _**Objects and aims**_ 

The charity’s Objects are to promote such Charitable Purpose or Charitable Purposes as the Trustees shall in their absolute discretion think fit. Such Objects include but are not limited to the following: 

-to promote the benefit of the inhabitants of Bourne End and Wooburn and the neighbourhood together defined in the Wooburn and Bourne End parish 

-to maintain and manage the Bourne End Community Centre 

-to promote such other charitable purposes as may from time to time be determined 

The objects of the Association are to: 

a) promote the benefit of the inhabitants of Bourne End & Wooburn and the neighbourhood together defined by Wooburn Parish (hereinafter called "the area of benefit") without distinction of sex, sexual orientation, race or of political, religious or other opinions, by associating together the said inhabitants and the local authorities, voluntary and other organisations in a common effort to advance education and to provide facilities in the interests of social welfare for recreation and leisure-time occupation with the object of improving the conditions of life for the said inhabitants; 

b) establish, or secure the establishment of, a Community Centre and to maintain and manage the same (whether alone or in co- operation with any local authority or other person or body) in furtherance of these objects. 

c) promote such other charitable purposes as may from time to time be determined. 

## _**Objectives, strategies and activities**_ 

The Community Centre 

The Association manages Bourne End Community Centre which was opened in 1967. The Centre building and land is leased from Buckinghamshire County Council on a 99-year lease at a peppercorn rent. This property is held in trust by the Official Custodian for Charities. 

The Association has 3 employees - one full-time and another part time both working in the Centre Office providing administrative and facilities support and a cleaner/janitor. The Association depends upon the continuing support of volunteers from all parts of the community for all other support and management. 

The Association's aim has always been to provide first class facilities at affordable prices for voluntary organisations serving the local community. Our halls and meeting rooms are usually filled with the sound of music, drama, sport, exercise and historical research – undertaken by groups from pre-school age to ‘seniors’. We are also delighted to continue to play host to Headway, a charity helping those who have suffered brain injury.

## **Trustees' Report** 

## _**Public benefit**_ 

We have five halls/rooms which can be hired to groups or individuals from the local community and surrounding area. 

In addition to our own events, activities for the local community include three coffee mornings, a visiting podiatrist and Good Neighbours lunches in conjunction with Wye Valley Volunteers. 

The trustees confirm that they have complied with the requirements of section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission for England and Wales. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

2021 started with a third lockdown which ended when indoor venues were allowed to reopen on 12 April. 

There was a gradual return of groups to the Centre after preparations to make it COVID19 secure before the reopening. People were quite wary of meeting in large groups so we offered our hirers a larger room than normal at their usual price which some groups took up. Up to the end of December we picked up some temporary hirings from clubs/classes who couldn’t access their usual venues – some of these hirings have become permanent. 

The centreTalks carried on on Zoom though with reduced audiences. Both SMB and Wedmorn Badminton restarted in May. centreJazz restarted in August, in the May Woollerton Hall and from September in the bar, with reduced audiences. The monthly bar quiz restarted in June along with the Cinema. 

The garden in front of the Centre is being kept in good order by Kathy Jackson. Headway maintains the raised garden by the external entrance to the Eghams Room. We thank both of them for making the Centre front look very colourful. 

The 2022 pantomime, put on by Forum Players, has had to be cancelled due to production problems. 

The Community Market has been holding the market outdoors, round the Community Centre, Library and St Dunstan’s and also hiring the May Woollerton Hall for extra stalls. 

The Community Centre was used on Fun Night with a large number of people entering the building and using the bar. 

The bar reopened on the 16th April to restricted hours. These were gradually extended during the year but the bar remained closed on Mondays. The trading company has made a loss during 2021. 

Target Magazine is produced 6 times a year. Many thanks to Barrie Penfold, the editor and the team of distributers. It was much appreciated by those who are unable to mix in the community during this period of uncertainty about COVID19 transmutability. 

The monthly online newsletter started in 2020 has continued to be produced and provides a means of communicating with our members and hirers. 

We have purchased an online booking diary, Avalon, which will improve our booking and invoice systems. 

At the end of October Sue Ambrose retired from the Centre Office after 26 years with the Community Centre. She received very many good wishes and a gift from hirers and users of the Centre. 

It was decided to appoint a Centre Manager. After interviewing a short list and second interview Steve Burton was appointed to start in November and he has settled in well.

## **Trustees' Report** 

## **Financial review** 

The financial position of the charity continued to be adversely affected by the COVID 19 pandemic as restrictions were in force for the early part of the year but gradually hirers have returned and as some restrictions were eased. As a result, room hires improved over the 2020 situation with letting income increasing from £22,545 in 2020 to £30,877 in 2021. 

Fundraising income increased from £1,980 in 2020 to £3,231. 

Staff continued to be furloughed which helped to mitigate the financial impact of the reduced letting income. 

Target magazine returned to a full publication schedule and generated a surplus for the Association. 

At the year-end there was an operating deficit of £15,949 compared to a deficit of £18,940 in 2020. 

Year-end reserves stood at £212,987 (2020 £228,936). 

## _**Policy on reserves**_ 

Our existing policy is to hold between six and twelve months annual expenditure as a real reserve. We define real reserves as net current assets. This differs from the General reserve appearing on the Balance sheet by excluding capitalised expenditure on the fabric of the building and on fixtures and fittings which would be worthless should they need to be sold. Our net current assets at the end of 2021 were £.160,380. This represents about 17 months of expenditure, excluding depreciation at the end of 2021. 

## **Plans for future periods** 

## _**Aims and key objectives for future periods**_ 

Our future plans include replacing the front doors and redesigning the area in front of the front doors to make access to the Centre much easier for those with mobility issues and in wheelchairs. 

We need to attract new members and would encourage all users to become members of the Association. We also ask existing members to encourage friends and neighbours to join us at the Community Centre. 

There is always a need for volunteers to become actively involved in the running of the Association as without a band of willing volunteers the Community Centre would not exist. 

## **Structure, governance and management** 

## _**Nature of governing document**_ 

The charity was constituted on 14th May 1964 and is governed by the constitution last amended on 14th April 2003, it is an unincorporated association.

## **Trustees' Report** 

## **Relationships with related parties** 

## **Bourne End Community Trading Ltd** 

This company runs the bar at the Community centre and the charity charge an occupational licence to the company when a profit is made. 

The charity did not charge the company this year as a loss has been made due to the bar being unable to be open at times throughout the year due Covid 19 restrictions. 

## **Financial instruments** 

## _**Objectives and policies**_ 

The charity’s activities expose it to a number of financial risks including credit risk, cash flow risk and liquidity risk. The use of financial derivatives is governed by the charity’s policies approved by the board of trustees, which provide written principles on the use of financial derivatives to manage these risks. The charity does not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. 

## _**Cash flow risk**_ 

The charity maintains a high level of cash reserves to mitigate cash flow risk . 

## _**Credit risk**_ 

The charity’s principal financial assets are bank balances and cash, trade and other receivables. The charity’s credit risk is primarily attributable to its trade receivables. The amounts presented in the balance sheet are net of allowances for doubtful receivables. An allowance for impairment is made where there is an identified loss event which, based on previous experience, is evidence of a reduction in the recoverability of the cash flows. 

## _**Liquidity risk**_ 

The charity seeks to manage financial risk by ensuring sufficient liquidity is available to meet foreseeable needs and to invest cash assets safely and profitably.

## **Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities** 

The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with the United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and applicable law and regulations. 

The law applicable to charities requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the applicable Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations, and the provisions of the constitution. The trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting 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.

## **Bourne End (Buckinghamshire) Community Association** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021** 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **Statement of compliance** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the second edition of the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011. 

## **Basis of preparation** 

Bourne End (Buckinghamshire) Community Association meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. The accounts (financial statements) have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts. 

## **Exemption from preparing a cash flow statement** 

The charity opted to early adopt Bulletin 1 published on 2 February 2016 and have therefore not included a cash flow statement in these financial statements. 

## **Going concern** 

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

## **Income and endowments** 

Voluntary income including donations, gifts, legacies and grants that provide core funding or are of a general nature is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured with sufficient reliability. 

## _**Donations and legacies**_ 

Donations and legacies are recognised on a receivable basis when receipt is probable and the amount can be reliably measured. 

## _**Grants receivable**_ 

Grants are recognised when the charity has an entitlement to the funds and any conditions linked to the grants have been met. Where performance conditions are attached to the grant and are yet to be met, the income is recognised as a liability and included on the balance sheet as deferred income to be released. 

## _**Deferred income**_ 

Deferred income represents amounts received for future periods and is released to incoming resources in the period for which, it has been received. 

## _**Investment income**_ 

Interest is recognised on an accruals basis and included in the period in which it relates to. 

Page 13 



## **Bourne End (Buckinghamshire) Community Association** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021** 

## **Expenditure** 

All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs. 

## _**Raising funds**_ 

These are costs incurred in attracting voluntary income, the management of investments and those incurred in trading activities that raise funds. 

## _**Charitable activities**_ 

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them. 

## **Support costs** 

Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, for example, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage. 

## **Governance costs** 

These include the costs attributable to the charity’s compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements, including audit, strategic management and trustees’s meetings and reimbursed expenses. 

## **Government grants** 

Government grants are recognised when the charity has an entitlement to the funds and any conditions linked to the grants have been met. Grants are classified as relating either to revenue or to assets. Grants relating to revenue are recognised in income over the period in which the related costs are recognised. Grants relating to assets are recognised over the expected useful life of the asset. Where part of a grant relating to an asset is deferred, it is recognised as deferred income. 

## **Taxation** 

The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Individual fixed assets costing £100.00 or more are initially recorded at cost. 

## **Depreciation and amortisation** 

Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows: 

Page 14 



## **Bourne End (Buckinghamshire) Community Association** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021** 

## **Asset class** 

Fixture, fittings and equipment Leasehold improvements 

## **Depreciation method and rate** 

10-25% straight line basis 2-10% straight line basis 

## **Trade debtors** 

Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business. 

Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price. They are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the charity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. 

## **Cash and cash equivalents** 

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. 

## **Trade creditors** 

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities. 

These are recognised initially at the transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

## **Borrowings** 

Interest-bearing borrowings are initially recorded at fair value, net of transaction costs. Interest-bearing borrowings are subsequently carried at amortised cost, with the difference between the proceeds, net of transaction costs, and the amount due on redemption being recognised as a charge to the Statement of Financial Activities over the period of the relevant borrowing. 

Interest expense is recognised on the basis of the effective interest method and is included in interest payable and similar charges. 

Borrowings are classified as current liabilities unless the charity has an unconditional right to defer settlement of the liability for at least twelve months after the reporting date. 

## **Fund structure** 

Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees's discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity. 

Restricted income funds are those donated for use in a particular area or for specific purposes, the use of which is restricted to that area or purpose. 

Page 15 



## **Bourne End (Buckinghamshire) Community Association** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021** 

## **Pensions and other post retirement obligations** 

The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme which is a pension plan under which fixed contributions are paid into a pension fund and the charity has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions even if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods. 

Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities when they are due. If contribution payments exceed the contribution due for service, the excess is recognised as a prepayment.
