## Treasurers Report 2020/21 

We have survived despite Covid 19 by having to use some of our reserves and help from CJRS and a grant from Erewash Borough Council and the daycare grant from Derbyshire County Council but were ignored by our bankers when we asked for help. If the bank had helped initially it would have eased a lot of concerns whilst we grappled  with the affects on of covid 19 on the business as this was exceptional circumstances. 

Despite all of this and providing a full risk assessment we were able to restart daycare in November 2020 however the numbers are lower as we could no longer provide transport due to cost and the risk of people travelling together. Many of the other groups that use the centre did not return until April 2021 and some groups have closed completely all of which has an impact on our revenue. 

We have been fortunate in not having to make any staff redundant due to the CJRS and we hope that as the Covid situation is becoming more relaxed we are hopeful that people will start to use the centre again and day care numbers will increase. 

We were sorry to lose SOBS from our offices, they have been with us for 16 years and as well as losing the income from renting the office space which we need to recover, we miss their presence in the building. 

Without all the input of our manager who continued  to work during Covid we would have had to have closed. 

We are looking forward to a better situation in 2022/23 .

ILKESTON & DISTRICT CENTRE FOR VOLUNTARY SERVICE 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the llkeston** & **District Centre for Voluntary Services** 

I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021 which are set out on pages 6 to 13. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. 

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to an audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act. 

- follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (undersection 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act, as amended); and state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner's statement** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given 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 you as 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. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements 

- to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Act; and 

to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of the Act; or 

- to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

## **1.3 Charitable Funds** 

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity.

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **1.5 Resources expended** 

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs relating to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings, they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with use of the resources. Fund-raising costs are those incurred in seeking voluntary contributions and do not include the costs of disseminating information in the support of the charitable activities. 

## **1.6 Debtors**

## **1.8 Creditors and provisions** 

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. 

## **1.9 Financial instruments** 

The charity has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.

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

## **1.11 Taxation** 

The charity is exempt from tax on income and gains falling with section 505 of the Taxes Act 1988 or section 252 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992 to the extent that these are applied to its charitable objects.

The estimated and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

ILKESTON & DISTRICT CENTRE FOR VOLUNTARY SERVICE. 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Ilkeston** & **District Centre for Voluntary Services** 

I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021 which are set out on pages 6 to 14. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section I 44(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. 

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to an audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; 

- follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 14S(S)(b) of the 2011 Act, as amended); and state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner's statement** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given 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 you as 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. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

- 1 Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements 

- to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Act; and 

to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of the Act; or 

- 2 to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **1. Accounting policies** 

The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows: 

## **Charity information** 

Ilkeston & District Centre for Voluntary Service. The charity's registered office is IDCVS Flamsteed Centre, Albert Street, llkeston, Derbyshire, DE7 5GU. At the end of the year there were 4 Trustees 

## **1.1 Accounting convention** 

These accounts have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102, "The Financial Reporting  Standard  applicable  in  the  UK  and  Republic  of  Ireland"  ("FRS  102"), "Accounting and Reporting by Charities" the Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying FRS 1 02, the Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice as it apples from I January 2015. The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 1 02. 

The accounts are prepared in Sterling which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements to the nearest £. 

The accounts have been prepared on historical cost convention apart from freehold property that iscarried at market value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below. 

The accounts for the year ended 31 March 2021 are prepared in accordance with FRS 102, The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland. The date of transition to FRS 102 was 1 April 2015. 

## **1.2 Going concern** 

At the time of approving the accounts, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity 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 accounts. 

## **1.3 Charitable Funds** 

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity. 

Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for particular purposes. Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure imposed by the donor or through the terms of an appeal. 

## **1.4 Incoming resources** 

All incoming resources are included in the SOFA when the charity is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. Gifts in kind have been included at market value of gifts received and in assets acquired. No amounts are included in the financial statements for services donated by volunteers.

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **1.5 Resources expended** 

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs relating to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings, they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with use of the resources. Fund-raising costs are those incurred in seeking voluntary contributions and do not include the costs of disseminating information in the support of the charitable activities. 

## **1.6 Debtors** 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discounts offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. 

## **1.7 Cash and cash equivalents** 

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

## **1.8 Creditors and provisions** 

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. 

## **1.9 Financial instruments** 

The charity has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value. 

## **Derecognition of financial liabilities** 

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled. 

## **1.10 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  charity  is demonstrably  committed  to  terminate  the  employment  of  an  employee  or  to  provide termination benefits. 

## **1.11 Taxation** 

The charity is exempt from tax on income and gains falling with section 505 of the Taxes Act 1988 or section 252 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992 to the extent that these are applied to its charitable objects.

## **2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements** 

In the application of the charity'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 estimated and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

ILKESTON & DISTRICT CENTRE FOR VOLUNTARY SERVICE. 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Ilkeston** & **District Centre for Voluntary Services** 

I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021 which are set out on pages 6 to 14. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section I 44(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. 

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to an audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; 

- follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 14S(S)(b) of the 2011 Act, as amended); and state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner's statement** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given 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 you as 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. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

- 1 Which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements 

- to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Act; and 

to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of the Act; or 

- 2 to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
