Chairman'sReport 2023-2024 Barryreported that much ofthecentre'ssuccess has largely been due to our improvedmarketing stralegy.'Elainehasdone very welll Our website highlights opportunities, community eventsandweekend provision, and we receive regular telephoneand email enquiries. On 31st March our financial yearcametoan end. We have managed to maintain a favourablebank balan￿ duetoincreasedclient usage. The portacabin has been removedafternearly 20 years because of rot and wood11￿. The premises are undoubledlyourmostvaluable asset, with the Breaks building in its own palatial gardens, and closetotransport networks. Users oflen comment on how lovely the house and gardenslook,soitisincumbent on us to maintain it all to a good standard, which does not comecheap.Amore pressing need at the same time can affect problems, such as a completeshutdown of our heating system to remedy leaks, issues around flooding. damagedlrees.However we did manage to complete many other projecls, including repaintingwallsand ceilings lo ground and firsl Iloor. We were fortunate to receive ££4,200fromSection 106 funding which enabled work on Ihe crumbling brickwork on the floodlit play area and to the exterior of Enlerprise Hall. The former music room was emptied, the equipment given to a local school, and it is now a modern kitchen for the upstairs lounge. Exterior work was also carried out by the Borough Counoil, so a lot of improvements have been made to the prernises., overall a relatively successful year. Lady Salisbury asked about the cameras. security and alarm systems and Elaine said all were dealt with. Barry mentioned that where damage is caused by the users, any problems are referred lo the groups themselves. The Hertfordshire Youth Service has changed beyond all recognition. Gone is youth work where young people aged 13-19 could attend, replaced by issue-based provision,. however the service is still provided by the County Council, which pleases us in that they continue to use our premises. However cuts came and they had to leave this part of the front of the building. which will now be available for other uses.. this room will now be used for management meelings. Junior Club continues every Wednesday evening 1800- 2000 hours for young people aged 8-11, attracting up lo 30 young people - and having run for over 50 years but it is increasingly difficult to manage. Amanda had to leave us but fortunately we have Sarah. However it proved how how vulnerable we are without a gender balance, for it is necessary to have a male and a female lo deal with any issues. We are fortunate in the amount of land surrounding ihe house, with grassed areas and flowerbeds plus tubs and hanging baskets, but a large amount of grounds brings necessary work, and problems, with very few people. In winter il is leaf clearance, and flooding in certain areas, which require a lot of attention, and Sandy regularly tends to the garden assisted by Community Payback. We were all saddened by the loss of Adrian Moody who died early this year. However we are grateful that we can achieve all of this wilh such a small number of willing individuals. Fund-raising is not as important as it once was but we like to access funds when we can. We are grateful for the Section 106 £4,002 and £240 from the Real Tennis Club, also £745 from from the local community fund run by the Co-op. We also participated in the government scheme Warm Spaces. with a grant of £2,000. Not all funding though is of a financial nature, for we also received pieces of equipment and furniture, so despite not having made specific efforts to raise funds, we did do particularly well. We put on a Christmas Fayre, which did not do at all well.. Elaine reported Ihat we had Romanians outside which caused a bit of chaos as people did not realise Ihere were stalls inside,. however, we did not lose any money and will try again this year, when they will not be invited Lady Salisbury asked about Christmas events for children and Elaine replied we will have another do this year, on 30th November. Barry said we would like lo make greater use of our lovely gardens. but alas the weather does not co-operale. The sports field is under-used and we cannot put in a gate to egress the field (we want to be able to get out of the field into Link Closel., the fear is that the Council might then use the field for building. Barry will try to get the Council to agree to the gate as there is only one way in and out, for we do need another access. Peter asked how much it costs lo maintain the field and Bary said we get the grass cut for nothing- bul we do not have the staff to cul back hedges etc. Elaine mentioned we have our first dog- walker using the field, so il is hoped that might grow. Barry reported that improved marketing has increased bookings greatly, and our day- to-day us*s remain loyal to Breaks. Lady Salisbury thanked Barry for his report. Treasurer's ReportlApproval of Accounts Keith had provided detailed financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2024. He reported that we ended up with a small deficit of £3,704, not too bad considering the increasing costs of services and materials. Income for the year was £159,963, very encouraging- bookings have really gone up. Total income for the year was £159,963, up 18.7 /o,whileexpenditureincreasedby21.7 /., but we know the reasons. We havespentalotofmoneyonthepremises and grounds, so total expenditure was £163,667,alsospentonissueswiththe heating system. Premises and grounds maintenanceincreasedby£13,OOandwas £64,142. But we have to manage the premisestoagoodstandardsoitismoney well spent. Utilities costs doubledto£25,677'.whalweexpecledthough and we were lucky to be in a cheap deal.

Conclusion OPENING STATEMENT During my closing comments at last year's AGM, I said that we had, over the past year, focused most of our attention on improving the fabric of the premises and the surrounding estate. Equally, we had also improved our marketing strategy, which, as a result had a profound effect on our lettings. The result of which was a noticeable increase in our revenue. Therefore, being mindful of further work requiring our attention, it seemed sensible that we should continue similarly this Year. I will cover under, premises the work that we have undertaken in greater detail. STAFF Barry Clark CHAIRMAN CENTRE SECRETARY Jerry Murphy HOUSE STAFFIYOUTH WORKER LEADER IN CHARGE Sandy Jones GARDENERISOCIAL MEDIA John Walker MAINTENANCE Sarah Jackson YOUTH WORKER/HOUSE KEEPER HOUSEKEEPER 10 STAFFING Staffing is and always will be a difficult issue for us. This is mainly due to the precarious nature of our finances. Whilst our income is relatively stable at this time, things can change very quickly and we can suddenly find ourselves struggling. So, at present we only have two permanent members of staff with the remaining as casual. For some, it suits but for others they require some more permanentl And this we cannot guarantee. 11 CLIENTS The Youth and Community Centre has been extremely busy once again. The attached list represents our core users and accounts for the largest source of income. Equally, we also host numerous other Community events, which at times we find hard to facilitate, but we are always pleased to welcome other users. For example PolLing Station, Indian Community Society, Model Aircraft Group and Ocado (team building events). Throughout the half-term and summer holidays, we host opportunities for young people, and at weekends we facilitate private functions such as Birthday Parties, Wedding Receptions, Baby Showers, Celebration of Life etc. The Centre is indeed very popular and people return year after year.

They decided to relocate the Information Advice and Guidance Service to Welwyn Garden City. PresumabLy as a cost-cutting exercise. For us, initially, it meant a loss of substantial income, but fortunately, the rapidLy expanding nursery provision here at Breaks needed further space. Sol In a relatively short time, we were able to facilitate the nursery and replace our lost revenue. Services for Young People stiLI continue to deliver youth projects here throughout the year and holiday programmes during half term. Most of the projects are issue-based, and more often, the young people are referred by other agencies. Open door Youth provision sadly being a thing of the past! As some of you will be aware, we have our youth provision here at Breaks. The club is open on Wednesday evenings from 18.00 to 20.00 and caters for young people aged 8 to 11 years of age. The club has been providing a range of fun activities for over 50 years and was initially set up because the County CounciL's youth provision only catered for young people 13+ Over the past 26 years, Jerry Murphy has successfully run the club and, over that period, has had some very able and enthusiastic workers in support. Sadly, as is always the case, people move on, and replacing them has become increasingly difficultll We have been able to provide a service over recent months, but this has proved to be very difficult. We have tried to recruit more people, and whilst we have had some responses, they fail to turn uplll Therefore, for the time being, we have reLuctantly ceased to operatell I would like to revisit the reestablishment of the junior club before the start of the new term in September, but would appreciate the setting up of a small working party from the Management Committee. 14 PREMISES A comment often made by visitors to the Centre is, how big this place is! Lookin£ at the building from the outside can be very misleadingi But once inside, it is surprising just how vast it is. The main house and outbuildings comprise 21 rooms of various sizes. We have 6 kitchens and 6 toilets. As you can appreciate, with our limited number of staff, maintaining all of this can be difficultl Fortunately, some of the rooms are Let to regular users and therefore they are responsible for their cleaning. Nonetheless, we as the host organization remain responsible for the maintenance and repair of these rooms, and it is to that end that over the last two years, we have focused most of our attentionl As I have said many times, our premises are our biggest asset, and it is essential that we maintain them to as best level we can. The amount of income raised in the last year has enabled us to fund the ongoing work, and as such, attract more and more bookings. I did not reaLise Being in this situation is indeed most encouraging. pieces of work that for years have eluded us have now become possible, and as such, we have less in the way of reorganization and deveLopment work to do than before. Nonetheless, over the past year, we have seen the creation of new Admin Offices, a Kitchen, an additional CounseLling room, a newLy upgraded Stage, and additional CCTV stations. Clearly, that does not mean ongoing cleaning and maintenance work is any less. in fact, it could be substantially morell A building of this size and vintage will aLways throw up issues, and therefore, it is incumbent on us to do the best we can with the limited number of staff avaiLable. 15 FUNDRAISING Fund Raising has not been as crucial as in earlier years, mainly due to our ability to accrue a steady source of income through our day-to-day business. None the less we have, this year been fortunate the have two Lady Salisbury's coffee mornings in the same year, which as a resuLt raised, £1973.08 Equally our very successful Christmas Fayre raised £515.80. Whilst not making specific efforts to identify funding streams we do keep a watchful eye on what is available. Swizzels The Great Community Refresh - A chance to win £IOOO towards the Youth Club.

Christmas Fayre raised £515.80 Coffee Morning raised £1973.081£986.54 each for Breaks and St Etheldredal 16 ANNUAL COFFEE MORNING A heartfelt thank you to our generous plant donors- Rochfords, Euro Plants, Dutch Nursery, and new supporter B&Q - for their contributions to this year's event. PF 17 CHRISTMAS FAYRE "A big thank you to the committee for their invaluable help, and to Lady SaLisbury for her much-appreciated attendance. We're delighted to report a stronger footfalL than last yearlll 18 WINDOW DISPLAY This year's window displays beautifully captured the spirit of the seasons, featuring themes for Valentine's Day, HaLloween, and Christmas. ij 19 CONCLUSION All in all we have achieved a great deal this year. The premises has had virtually all the rooms refurbished over the past two years, with some previously used as storage now, newly functional kitchens. Therefore if all remains well we should need to do less this year apart from day to day maintenance. Clearly as mentioned earlier with the premises being so widely used we will need to continue to maintain them as much as possible to a good standard. None the less we are aware of one very pressing need and that is a total resurfacing of the forecourt and as such we will need to explore funding opportunitiesll Apart from that I do feel confident in saying that the past year ha5 been a succes5 and I would like to extend my sincere thanks, on behalf of Breaks Manor to all those who have made this possible.

(remember to include the page numbers of additional sheets)||| **Respective** The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. **responsibilities of** The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year **trustees and examiner** under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Charities Act”) and that an independent examination is needed. ## It is my responsibility to: - examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act, - to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and - • to state whether particular matters have come to my attention **Basis of independent** My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given **examiner’s statement** by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. **May 2018** **IER** **Independent examiner's statement** In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention (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 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. - _Please delete the words in the brackets if they do not apply._ **Signed: Date:** 23-01-2026 **Name:** Mrs Julie Gittins FCCA **Relevant professional** The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) **qualification(s) or body (if any):** **Address:** c/o J K Minerva LLP 46 Crossway Welwyn Garden City, AL8 7EE ## **Section B Disclosure** Only complete if the examiner needs to highlight material matters of concern (see CC32, Independent examination of charity accounts: directions and guidance for examiners). **Give here brief details of any items that the examiner wishes to disclose** .
