**Handsworth Day Care Centre Trustee's report For the year ended 31 March 2021**
The Management Committee continued to support staff during lockdown. The strict measures brought anxiety and worry for families as non-essential contact and travel came into force nationally. Parents reported social distancing made it difficult to take the children out and we became aware of the developmental impact on the children. The team maintained contact with families and provided online and remote childcare advice and support
The lockdown of the business placed greater strain on the nursery. We still had to keep applicable staff to children ratio even though we were closed, as this was a requirement of Early Education Entitlement (EEE) for funded children. The nursery sought business support and advice. An application was made for the Bounce Bank Loan to help pay for the overhead costs as the income generated from both Parents Fees and EEE fell sharply.
The nursery re-opened in Sept 2020. COVID-19 impacted on the number of children accessing the service for some time as parental anxiety and concerns affected parental confidence and thus required continued support. The management committee reflected on areas for development once lockdown ended however this was very difficult to plan as it was hard to deliver within the current Early Years climate as the changes to the charity was quite significant for much longer than we anticipated. .
The management team focused on identifying a building where we could deliver services in a modern, fit-forpurpose and efficient facility in the long term to achieve the sustainability we aimed for.
## **Acknowledgements**
The Management Committee and staff are grateful for all the continued help and support received from our parents, carers and partner agencies.
We approve 2020/2021 financial accounts and confirm that we have made available all relevant records and information for its preparation.

**Handsworth Day Care Centre Independent Examiners' Report**
**For the year ended 31 March 2021**
We report on the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 March 2021, which are set out on pages 4 to 7.
## **Respective responsibilities of the trustees and examiner**
The charity’s members are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s members consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 4144(2) of the Charities Act 2011) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is our responsibility to:
- examine the accounts (under section 145 of 2011 Act);
- to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners (under section 145 (5) of 2011 Act); and
- to state whether particular matters have come to our attention.
## **Basis of the independent examiner’s report**
Our examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. 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 you as members concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently we do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
## **Independent examiner’s statement**
In the course of our examination, no matter has come to our attention:
- (1) which gives us reasonable cause to believe that in, any material respect, the members have not met the requirements to ensure that:
- Proper accounting records are kept (in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act); and
- Accounts are prepared which agree with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Act; or
- (2) to which, in our opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
