TRUSTEES' REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

The working and holding trustees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022.

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the Association's Deed of Trust and Revised Constitution, the Charities Act 2011 and “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)” (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2016).

Objectives and activities

Aims and Objectives of the Charity

To encourage and promote the wellbeing of residents of Gerrards Cross by providing a focal point for community activity in Gerrards Cross. A major focus is on health, education, and community events. The Memorial Centre provides a meeting place and facilities for physical and mental training, recreation, and social interaction. The Charity aims to foster a community spirit for the achievement of these and other such purposes as may by law be deemed to be charitable.

To maintain and manage as a World War 2 memorial a community centre for the activities promoted by the Association and its constituent members in furtherance of the above objectives.

Activities to achieve objectives

To achieve the Association’s objectives, the Memorial Centre buildings need to be maintained in good repair to enable large numbers of people to meet to pursue educational, health, social, and other activities as well as being suitable for third party lettings to generate income. Finance to maintain this infrastructure is raised through membership subscriptions, grants, donations, rental of the Memorial Centre and Youth Centre rooms to clubs and third parties, rental of the World War 1 Building as a gym and fitness centre, and a variety of fund-raising events. To facilitate these activities a small number of paid staff are employed.

Statement on compliance with Charity Commission Guidance

The working and holding trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the Association should undertake.

The Association's policy is to consult and discuss with employees, through staff councils and at meetings, matters likely to affect employees' interests.

Information of matters of concern to employees is given through reports which seek to achieve a common awareness on the part of all employees of the financial and economic factors affecting the group's performance.

Applications for employment by disabled persons are always fully considered, bearing in mind the aptitudes of the applicant concerned. In the event of members of staff becoming disabled, every effort is made to ensure that their employment within the Association continues and that the appropriate training is arranged. It is the policy of the Association that the training, career development and promotion of disabled persons should, as far as possible, be identical to that of other employees.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

Achievements and performance in 2021-22

The year 2021-22 again suffered because of the global pandemic, with a third national lockdown occurring in the year. There were many attempts to restore normality, but we continued to experience cancellations of events and a reluctance of our community to risk engaging with others during this time.

In these circumstances, we are proud to present these results, which show a small surplus in the year of £19,449. We are particularly thankful to those who continued with their subscriptions during this period and to those who made donations to the associations to support its role in our community. We are particularly grateful for the donation of £37,830 from the Gerrards Cross Under 20’s club. We are also grateful for all the work donated by our volunteers without which, our association could not survive.

Given these exceptionally difficult times, it is a credit to all that we able to report our cash balances at £195,058 on 31 March 2022 compared to £134,968 at 31 March 2021.

Operating Subsidiary

The association operates a subsidiary company called Gerrards Cross Community Services (GXCS) through which the bar/café facilities are run. During the year ended 31 March 2022, this company made £1,391 compared to a loss of £12,736 in the previous year. This figure is not consolidated with those of the Association. During the pandemic, GXCS has availed itself of a non-recourse “Bounce Back” Government backed loan. On 31 March 2022, the balance owed on this loan amounted to £17,804.

Financial Reserves

The trustees consider that GXCA should work towards building its General financial reserves, being short term net liquid assets, to a level of £125,000, a figure consistent with Charity Commission recommendations and representing approximately 6 months expenses after allowing for mitigation opportunities. The need to maintain a high level of liquid assets is to provide adequate working capital, to give flexibility to cover any large payments, to provide a financial cushion in the event of a major incident impacting revenues, and to provide legally required funds in the highly unlikely event of the Association closing,

On 31 March 2022 the General reserve figure was £132,551. This figure includes £37,830 which has been designated for youth-based activities.

Risk management

The trustees review on a regular basis the major risks faced by the Association, including operational, reputational, legal, regularity, and financial risks. The trustees believe that short term liquid assets should never fall below £50,000. In fact, as explained above, the target level is far higher. Further, the trustees carry out an annual review of the key financial systems and procedures to ensure that appropriate financial controls are in place.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

1 Accounting policies

Charity information

Gerrards Cross Community Association is an unincorporated body governed by a deed of trust and constitution originally dated 10 October 1946. This was amended and a revised constitution was adopted on 15 June 2011.

What follows is commensurate with the revised constitution. The principal address of the charity is, The Memorial Centre, 8 East Common, Gerrards Cross, Buckinghamshire, SL9 7AD.

1.1 Accounting convention

The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with the exception of the revaluation of fixed asset investments.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the Association. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain financial instruments at fair value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2 Going concern

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Association has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

1.3 Charitable funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.

Designated funds comprise funds which have been set aside at the discretion of the trustees for specific purposes. The purposes and uses of the designated funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Restricted funds

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the accounts.

1.4 Income

Income is recognised in the period in which the Association is entitled to receipt and the amount can be measured reliably. Income is deferred only when the Association has to fulfil conditions before becoming entitled to it, or where the donor has specified that the income is to be expended in a future period.

Donations

Donations are accounted for on a cash basis. Gift aid on donations are accounted for when the donation has been reported on a claim form submitted to H.M. Revenue and Customs.

Legacies Legacies are included when the Association is advised by the personal representatives of an estate payment will be made or property transferred and the amount involved can be quantified.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

1 Accounting policies

Grants receivable

Grants are accounted for either on a cash basis or an accrual basis when the receipt of a grant in a subsequent year is deemed to be undoubted.

Subscriptions

Annual membership subscriptions are accounted for on a cash received basis.

1.5 Expenditure

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;

Expenditure on raising funds

Expenditure on raising funds comprise the cost of activities organised by the Association for generating funds and include the cost of commercial activities such as jumble sales and advertising and their associated support costs.

Expenditure on charitable activities

Expenditure on charitable activities represents costs incurred in meeting the Association's charitable objectives, namely the provision of a community centre and maintenance of a war memorial and their associated support costs.

Other expenditure

Other expenditure represents those items not falling into any other heading.

Allocation of support costs

Support costs are costs in respect of central administration and the costs of compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements. Support costs include staff costs, general administration and governance costs which support the activities of the Association in furtherance of its charitable objectives. These costs have been allocated to the relevant activity cost category they support. The basis on which support costs have been allocated are set out in note 10.

1.6 Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

Colston Hall Nil Other freehold properties Nil Office equipment 20% straight line basis Fixtures and fittings 10% straight line basis

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset and is recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year.

1 Accounting policies

1.7 Fixed asset investments

Fixed asset investments are initially measured at transaction price excluding transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Changes in fair value are recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred.

A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the Association. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.

1.8 Impairment of fixed assets

At each reporting end date, the Association reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).

1.9 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other shortterm liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

1.10 Financial instruments

The Association has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the Association's balance sheet when the Association becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

1 Accounting policies

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Association’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

1.11 Employee benefits

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the Association is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

1.12 Retirement benefits

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.

1.13 Cash Flow Statement

The accounts do not include a cash flow statement because the Association and its group, as small reporting entities are exempt from the requirement to prepare such statements under Financial Reporting Standard 1, 'Cash flow Statements'.

1.14 Taxation

The Association is not liable to income or capital gains tax on its charitable activities. Irrecoverable VAT is apportioned against relevant expenditure categories.

1.15 Group financial statements

Consolidated accounts are not presented because the Association has taken advantage of the provisions of paragraph 24.12 of the SORP. The results of the trading subsidiary, Gerrards Cross Community Services Limited, are included in a note to these accounts.

2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements

In the application of the Association’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
