REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2020. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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) (effective 1 January 2019).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
The main aim of the charity is to provide training and recreation for members of the Ipswich scout districts. The site is also available to all members of the scouting movement and other organisations and schools, including the disabled.
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities
Because of Covid 19 the scout campsite and facilities were closed down for most of 2020. Although we received grants of £28,400, there was still a significant deficit for the year of £45,080 compared with a surplus in the previous year of £4,741. Our Hallowtree turnover decreased by £66,246, and we replaced the main building windows at a cost of £33,435. Our bank balances have also decreased by £23,752.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Principal funding sources
The principal funding is from hire charges for the use of the site and facilities.
Reserves policy
The trustees will maintain sufficient reserves on general fund to maintain the site for at least one year in case of difficulties.
Other funds are set up to provide finance for the continuing improvement to site buildings and amenities.
FUTURE PLANS
The trustees are always looking for new ways to improve the site and raise the necessary funding.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust and constitutes an unincorporated charity.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF IPSWICH SCOUT DISTRICT LIASON COMMITTEE
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Ipswich Scout District Liason Committee
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Ipswich Scout District Liason Committee (the Trust) for the year ended 31 December 2020.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the 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 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do 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.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Expenditure
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Improvements to property - 5% on cost, 4% on cost and 2% on cost Fixtures and fittings - 25% on reducing balance
Taxation
The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
Government grants
Grants are accounted for using the accrual model.
Grants relating to revenue are recognised in the Statement of Income and Retained Earnings in the same period as the related costs for which the grant is intended to compensate. Where there are no related costs the grant is recognised in the period in which it becomes receivable.
