Message from
our Chair and CEO
Welcome to Coram's Flelds Annual Report and
Flnanclal Statements for the year 2021-2022.
At the start of the year, Coram's Field5. like man
charities, f ound itself grappling ujith further
uncertainty folloujing the third national lockdown.
ujhilst trying to navigate the governments
roadmap to ensure our services continued to reach
those most in need.
In August 2021. as COVID restrictions came to an
end, another, very different crisis emerged, as
Bloomsbury became home to around 2.000
Afghan nationals fleeing the Taliban. We ujere
proud to be at the forefront of the emergency
response, working ujith our partners in the Council
and voluntary sector to welcome families to
Camden and the Coram's Fields community.
Ongoing restrictions led to an extended period of
losses ffom some of our core revenue streams.
with hesitancy from parents and restrictions on
numbers 8150 meaning ouc Nursery and Out of
School Club services sauJ income heavily curtailed.
COVID had an unprec2d2nteci impact on manv
fa(nilies physic81 and mental health. none more 50
than parents of young children. We ujere therefore
thrilled when we were finally able to reopen our
Under 55 Orop In in September 2021. welcoming a
host of neLU children born in the panolemic, and
oroviding opportunities f or parents to connect.
following a period of sustained isolation.
We were therefore incred ibly gratef ul to some kev
funders, in particular the Oak Foundation, Garfield
Weston and John Lyons. who provided further
emergency support and multi-year core grants
respectively, to support our longer term recoverv
from the panolemic.
Despite the financial challenges faced, we were
also delighted lo deliver several improvement
projects across the site. Our seconcj largest
community space. our Guide Hall. received a full
makeover thanks to funding from Groundujork UK,
whilst the completion of a two yea( project to
build an electrical sub-station, represented a major
step in ouc cofnmittnent to deliver clean air for our
young users.
The importance of our park and playgrounds in
providing access to green. open space. for local
families, many of ujhom live in flats, with no
access to outdoor space. was laid bare du(ing the
IDckdowns of the previous year. We were
therefore delighte(i to be able to stay open
throughout the year, providing a lifeline for local
fafflilies.

The Omicron variant towards the end of 2021,
was a reminder that COVIO uJas far from over.
However. thankfully that didn't halt the return of
our uJinter marquee for the first time since 2019
and the much needed revenue that came Luith it.
Having navigated COVID. Storffl Eunice and the
highest temperatures on record in the first half of
2022. we are now looking forward to a more
stable period of re-building to ensure that our
services continue to feach the children. young
people and families that need us most.
Coram's Fields work with young people affected
by seriou5 Vouth violence saw us continue to lead
the way in the delivery of trauffla informed
pproaches. We were thrilled to see our first
repoct, offering insights and learning from our
community based intervention. published by the
Violence Reoluction Unit.
We would like to thank all those that supported
Coram's Fields during the year, and we look
forward to building on our work together.

The sub-station will also play a key role in protecting the

community space.
Over the last year. we've seen the return of some of our much loved Community events. the value of which has

SA'S
story
Since she wa5 5 years old SA loved playing
football and froffl the age of 8. started 8cce55ing
our football development programme. Initially
quiet anol a little timiol, SA has grown to be a
confident young woman who is well liked and
popular in her community as ujell as establishing
herself as a formidable competitor.
In November 2021, at the age of 15, SA'S hard
work and resilience paid off as she was offered
a football scholarship to play for Arsenal Ladies
Junior Development team. She was of course
extremely excited to be given this opportunity
nd is now focussed on honing her skills to
become a prof essional footballer.
We have been delighted to give SA opportunities
to really excel in a sport she loves, including
playing in Ihe Coram's Fields football team.
uJhere she ujoulcj consistently find herself to be
the only gif l in the entire league.
Our sports team sUPPQ(ted he( to attend
tournaments and helped nurture her talent bv
providing bespoke, 1=1 sessions. focussing on
fitness and skills. Despite almost alujays being
the only girl on the pitch. she let nothing
discourage her, if anything, the lack of female
players made hec more determined to play and
enjoy footb311.
We're proud to say that Coram's Fields helped
to set SA off on her career path and are
delighted to have been able to give her
opportunities that she may not have otheruJise
had. The Sports Development Team will
continue to support her as she takes on neuj
challenge5 and we at Coram's Fields wish her
every success for the f uture.

History
The Charitv Dccupies the site of the former Foundlin£ Hospital which Captain Thomas Coram established in 1759
to provide a home for (iestilute and abandoned children. The main hospital building was defflolished in 1926
leaving only the Geor£ian colonnaded buildings and lod£es which had enclosed the hospital forecourt and lawns.
A public campaign was launched by local people and well-wishers to save the Foundling sile from proposecj
commercial development and turn it into a children's playground. When suff icienl funds were raised and the land
finally ècquired. the Foundling site was renamed CDram's Fields and the Harmsworth Memorial Playground and
was officially opened in July 1936. Coram'5 Fields has (emained a centre for children and young oeople's
clivities of all kinds ever since. The playground is located in the Kin£ s Cross ward of the London Borough of

Financial Review
With much uncerlainty remaining at the beginning of the year. following the third national lockdown. we found
ourselves once again facing significant financial challenges.
An existing multi-year grant from the Oak Foundation. alongside suoport from the H52 fund, meant our
community sports prografflme slarle(J the year fully fun(Jed. The forced curtailment of some of our service
delivery in the previous year. meant we uJere able to carry forward some unspent funLling inlo 202112 2 for Ouf
U55 provision (funded Paul Haffllyn) and for our youth Services Ivariou5 funders). providing vital continuity of
our community programmes.
As uJe moved through the year. fufther successes provided stability for our youth orogramme. We were delighted
to build relalionshios ujith sever31 new funders. with the Foyle Foundation investing in our wouth arts and music
provision. and St Jaffles, Place Foundation confirming Iwo year's fun(Jing towards our Senior Youth Worker post.
We were also grateful for continued suoport from St Andfew Holborn. Tom Ap Rhys Trust and The 83lcombe
Trust.
Closing the bu(iget deficit on our unreslricte(i income though was always gDing to be our greatest challenge.
Despite the lifting of (estrictions. numbers attending our Nursery and Oul of School Club uJere not expected to.
nd in the event did not. return to full capacity. Whilst income for these services in 2021122 was significantly up
on 2020121. there remains some way to go for income to reach p(e-pandemic levels.
The previous year had seen the furlough scheffle, a public fundraising campaign and emergency COVIO grant5
protect us from the short term financial impacl of the pandefflic. There was therefore concern that fflan￿ fundefs
had exhausteci their SUPPDrt and thèt 2021122 could be even more challenging for the Charity. However, further
emergency grants from the Oak Foundation. alongside new. multi-year core cost Support froffl Garfield Weston
nd JDhn Lyon's brought much needed breathin£ space. and provided time to re-build our commercial income and
diversify our funding base.
The launch of a new corporate partnership programme, Connecting Futures in 2021, brought invaluable neuj
investfflenl. wilh eight founding members joining the programme. contributing to £56K of neuj income and
opening up a hDSt of opportunities for our VDung people.
The year also saw us trial some new challen£e events. In summer 2021 we teamed up with the UK Bun£ee team
to tieliver a 160ft bungee on site. 16 fundraise(s took part in Iwo events during the year. raising a total of just
under I l 0.000. We were also incredibly grateful for the phenomenal efforts of the parents and staff at the Hall
School in North Loncjon. Following a nomination to be one of the schoDI's annual Charity partners, è 75 strong
team took on a triathlon at Blenheim Palace. raising nearl¥4 £18.000 for our work ujilh young people.
With Ihe impact of COVID restrictions and a focus on emergency support. the development of our Major Donor
programme Ilhe Patron's Circlel has slowed over the last year. We were though incredibly £rateful for the
IDntinue(J SUPPDrt of our existing PatrDn5, many of whoffl had also pledged addilional support tiuring our
emer£ency campaign in 2020.
25

During the year, we continued to cornmil to a number Df improvement Works across our community spaces. A
£75K grant from Groundujork UK enableo us to comolele the refurbishment of our Guide Hèll. We were also
thankful tD local councillDrs who provided E 70K of funding for essential rDof and timber repair ujork across our
Grade11 lisled buildings
with work due to take olace in late 2022.
Overall, as the Charity continued to fecover from the effects of the pandemic. total income ènd exoenditure fo(
202 1122 increased over 2020121 by 27% and 18°b respectively. which combined lo produce net income of
£41.584 before the pension revaluation 12021.. net expenditure of £83.4151. Net unrestricted income was
£64.090 before the pension revaluation [2021.. net unreslricted expenditure of £145.595). net income on
restricted revenue and capital funds was E 29.778 12021.. E 114.4641 and the depreciation char£e on endowment
funds was £52.28412021.. £52.284)
Together with actuafial gains on the defined pension scheme of £393,000 12021.. losses of £456.0001 the
Charity's total funds increased by £434.584 12021.. decrease of £519.415). Once again. this demonstrates the
Charity's exposure to the unpredictable results of the annual pension valuation required by FRS 102.
Total Funds and Free Reserves Position
The Charity holds IDlal funds of E2,395,402 at 31st March 2022 12021.. £1.960.8181. Of these funds,
£1.638.973 12021.. £1.691.2571 is held as oerfflanent endowment. representing the original cost of the land and

The Charltv's unrestrlcted funds carrled forward at the end of the year (free reserves1 compr15e:
General funds of £894,937 12021. £735.0771.
The designated fixed a55et fund of £81,g82 12021.. Eg8,752) representing the net book value of the
Charity s tangible fixed assets which can only be realised by disposing of those assets.

A negative pension reserve of £589.000 12021.. [903.0001
An unrestricled legacy of £39.080, (eceived in 2020-21.
Reserves Policv
The Directors of the Corporate Trustee review their reserves policy annually and consider that in a stable financial
environment. the appropriate level of unrestricted general funds to hold would be equivalent to six month's
planned operating expenditure from such funds for the following year. The reserves policy is reviewed with
consideration to Ihe principal risks facing the Charity. the likelihood of these risks materialising and the f inancial
impècl thèt this woul(i have Dn the Charity.
At 51 March 2022. the general fund position of E894.937 IbefDre takin£ into account the lon£ term pensiDn
liability of £ 589.0001. repiesents just over 8 fflonlhs of current forecast operaling expencjiture from unrestricled
general funds for 2022123. With the Charity still facin£ significant financial challenges and uncertainties over the
coming months. the Directors believe that the current level of general reserves is appropriate and necessar
within the context of the overall reserves polic￿.
26

Pension Liabilitv
The Charity operates a defined benefit pension scheme, eligible to staff employed before May 201 S, as a member
of the London Pensions Fund AuthOrit￿'S multi-employef scheme. An alternative defined contfibution oension
scheme with Friends Life is open lo all staff used for auto-enrolmenl.
The actuarial valuation of Ihe LPFA pension fund in accordance wilh FRS102 at 31 March 2022. coffloleled in
May, resulted in a E314.000 reduction in the Charity's share of the pension scheme's liabilities to E589.000
12021 .. £468.000 increase lo £903.000). From 2020121 onwards the monthly emplower contributions rale was
increased from 19.3% 10 25.3% of salary. The triennial valuation is currenllw underway with the actuaries
reporting on ar1￿ changes to contribution rates in March 2023. to lake effect from April 2023.
The Directors of Ihe Corporate Trustee are aujare that, in common with final salaiy pension fun(i5 acioss the
oublic and voluntary sector. the liability changes significantly ffom year to ￿ear. The Directors and their
professional advisers will continue to monitor the situation and consider the provision which needs lo be made.
Going Concern
In order to assess whether the Charity is a going concern, the Oireclors have considered the final accounts for
2021122. the most recent forecast for 2022123, an indicative budget for 2023124 and the resulting anticipated
reserves position at the end of Mèrch 2024.
In fevietlling these forecasts. the Directors have examined the underlying assumptions. particularly in relation to
the pefformance of our income generating activities and consider that thefe are no other reasonable material
uncertainties.
The Charity has sufficient unrestricted general reserves to cover projected losses lo March 202U and sufficient
funds lo be able to settle financial oblig3tlDns as they fall due during this period. The Oirectors believe thèt the
immediate futu(e of Ihe Charity is secure fo( at least Ihe next 18 months and that on this basis the Charity is
goin£ concern.
Fundraising
During the year. Coram's Fiel(is employed a full time Fundraising Manager. This person conslituted the principal
fundraising resource for the charit￿ and along with the CEO. was responsible for overseeing 311 fundraising
ctivity in the year. During April and May 2022. the charity employed a freelance fundraisef via an agency to
bridge the gap ujhilst we recruited for è new Fundrèising Manager.
No professional fundraisers ujere appointed to carry oul f undrèising activity on behalf of the Charity. Corèm's
Fields used online plètforms during the veèr to support its fundraisin£. these included.. Just Givin£ and Committed
Giving. The Charity di(J nol raise any funds through a cofflmercial participator.
Coram's Fields refflaine(i a mefflber of the Fundraising Regulator and our funtiraising practice5 throughout the year
were compliant wilh the Code of Fundraisino Practice. Direct fundraising reque51s to individua15 in the year were
largely limited to online campaigns and thrDugh events an(i the Charity did not carry out any streetldDor ID
doorllelephone fundraising. To ensure that the charit￿ p(olects vulnerable people anol olher members of the
public in the course of our fundrèisin£. we regularly review our fundr3isin£ practices.
The Charity received no complaints during the year in relation to any aspect of its fundraising.

Principal Risks and Uncertainties
The Directofs of the Cofpofate Trustee confifm that Ihe major fisks to which the Charity is exposed have been
identified and revieujed and systems established to mitigate those risks. The risk management review considered
risks under the headings of Governènce. OperatlDnal. Financial and External risks to the or£anisètlDn. and the

income streams in the short to mediuffl term. and will need to regularly review 51rategic plans, to ensure the
Charity can meet its future commitments and maintain the park and playground for local families. without
compromising its financial sustainability.
The OirectDrs èlsD continue lo monitor closely the funding options for all prDgrammes. They are mindful that the
current core suoport in place from Garf ield Weston and John L¥4ons provides much needed financial protection but
that the period of funding must be used lo further diversify and £row fundraising in other areas.
28

Towards the end of 2021122. the Charity began a process of consultation in relation to proposals to improve the
management and maintenance of its park and buildings. Whilst Ihe process is nearing its conclusion, the Directors
recognise that there remains some Uncertaint￿ around the impact of changes over the next year.
The budgel for 202 212 3, was prepared in March 2022 by the CEO. revieweLI by the Finance sub-cofflmittee anLI
presented to Trustees for approval at the Board meetin£ in March 2022. It Was based largely on committed
income and ujas therefore relatively caulious. projecting èn unreslricted deficit for the year of £159.632 before
aCCDunting for annual depreciation and pension charges.
The Dlrectors conslder the major factors affecting future financial performance to be:
