WHITBY AREA DEVELOPMENT TRUST

TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

The Trustees present their report and the unaudited financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2022.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in notes to the accounts and comply with the charity’s governing document, the Companies Act 2006 and "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 published in October 2019."

The legal and administrative information page forms part of this report.

Introduction

As a multi-purpose ‘community anchor’ charity, most of the needs to be addressed arise from the isolated rural nature of the charity’s area of operation. It is very sparsely populated with only 25,000 inhabitants: half in Whitby town and half scattered across several hundred square miles of the northern half of the North York Moors National Park, around the Esk valley. There are no remaining local bus services in much of the National Park area served, compounding the usual rural difficulties of access to education, work and services. Over a third of all residents are age 60 or above and a third of households have a single occupant. A high proportion of the community is at significant risk of social exclusion.

The Whitby travel-to-work area is characterised by high levels of self-employment; one-person businesses; working from or at home; and a few small employers. The existing enterprise profile is unlikely to generate significant job growth. In comparison with national and regional averages, the area served has a high proportion of the working age population with no or few educational qualifications; and a high proportion of low income households. The very strong demand for second / holiday homes in the area, together with very limited new housing development within the National Park, results in severe problems of housing affordability and availability.

History of the Charity

Mission: “ Helping people to help themselves and each other ”

Originally known as Whitby Network, the charity has been serving the local community since 1984, starting with an Advice Centre and evolving to meet a wide range of community needs. In 1998 it purchased the redundant Coliseum cinema building, which is centrally situated next to the bus and train stations in Whitby. The Coliseum was converted to a community centre, which also incorporates selfcontained residential accommodation for adults with learning difficulties. The Coliseum Centre offers a variety of high quality office space, meeting, lecture and assembly rooms, together with the community café, theatre, and internet café.

The charity became the Whitby Area Development Trust in 2011, when Whitby Network merged with the Whitby Area Community Development Trust, a company limited by guarantee formed in 2007. The Community Development Trust had a greater focus on environmental and sustainability issues across the Whitby Area and a wider community involvement from the rural areas. Accordingly, the merged charity secured the approval of the Charity Commission, to adopt new objects covering rural and urban regeneration.

WHITBY AREA DEVELOPMENT TRUST

TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

Objectives and activities

The promotion for the benefit of the public of urban or rural regeneration in areas of social and economic deprivation (and in particular in the Whitby district and surrounding area) by all or any of the following means:

such other means as may from time to time be determined by the trustees.

Achievements and performance

The financial results for 2022 are broadly stable, despite the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, the increased cost of living and building developments at the Coliseum. Public events and community activities in the Coliseum Centre continue to develop and work is ongoing to continue to rebuild customer and service user participation.

The charity also continued to receive rental income from our residential tenants in the Penthouse and Crow’s Nest personalised, supported-living accommodation.

Trustees continue to review future development strategy in the light of the significant rise in the cost of living trends and likely societal changes.

The Development Trust will continue to contribute research papers to local government policy consultations, to ensure that particular issues affecting the Whitby area are given full consideration. The re-organisation of local government in North Yorkshire during 2022-23 is expected to bring significant change. The Trust will support campaigns to ensure that local needs are fully represented and thus recognised by the relevant statutory authorities, particularly in relation to housing, mental health services, and hospital services.

WHITBY AREA DEVELOPMENT TRUST

TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

Review of the Charity’s Usual Areas of Activity

A) Coliseum Services

The Coliseum Centre may be compared to a village hall on a larger scale. Located in the town centre, adjacent to the bus and train stations, it offers a wide range of services to the local community, from basic travel information to IT courses, or just a space to meet up for coffee.

B) Tenancies

Community Café

The Community Café is operated during the day by Dalewood Trust, who offer work-based activities for people with learning difficulties. They cater for users of the building and the wider local community, by offering meals and snacks at reasonable prices.

Community Space Hire:

Fully-serviced office space and meeting rooms are available on a session hire basis and the Trust continues to build community space hire and encourage services and support organisations to the area. This facility is widely used by local not for profit organisations and statutory services and the Trust continues to promote support and accessibility for the community. The Internet Café continues to provide amenities and support for individuals and groups.

Full time tenancies are also available with long term leases for first floor serviced offices as are commercial lettings.

Residential Accommodation:

The Trust provides self - contained, supported residential accommodation within the Coliseum for up to eleven adults with learning difficulties and, in some cases, mental health needs.

The service focuses on promoting recovery, well - being and greater independence. This enables service users to make progress in these areas by recognising and building on their strengths, coping abilities, social networks and natural support systems.

Creative Support, an industrial and provident society, provides the 24-hour personalised support needed by our Penthouse tenants. As their landlord, the Trust encourages and welcomes our tenants to participate in the social, cultural and educational opportunities on offer in the Coliseum Centre and wider area.

Accommodation is provided in three self - contained apartments: The Penthouse, Crow’s Nests and The Quarterdeck (opening early 2023) The Quarterdeck renovation has experienced budget variations due to the cost of living increases and difficulty in accessing trades in the local area. However, the apartment will open shortly to provide enhanced support and a high quality standard of living for two service users in a small, self - contained unit.

The Trust continues to upgrade facilities and energy options to provide the best possible standard of accommodation.

C) Recycling Services

The Network Shop is situated in Whitby town centre and sells donated items of used furniture and household items. It differs from most charity shops in that it is not intended as a fund-raising activity, but as a charitable activity. It relieves financial hardship by assisting lowincome families to meet their household needs at low cost and safely. All upholstered items must bear Fire Safety regulation labels and all electrical goods are PAT tested before sale.

The service also helps to safeguard the environment. The area served has a high proportion of self-catering holiday accommodation, which is frequently refurbished to maintain its market appeal. Many discarded household items, still in good condition, would otherwise be sent to landfill. Unfortunately, the NYCC Landfill Tax Credit scheme has been withdrawn, leading to a loss of income to support the service.

The shop aids social inclusion and provides training towards employment opportunities. It is staffed by volunteers, some of whom have issues which prevent them from securing paid employment. By acquiring customer service skills and basic stock recording – plus a good attendance record – some shop volunteers are helped to progress to paid employment. Others derive on-going benefit from the dignity, social contact, feeling of self-worth and self-respect gained by being a valued member of the shop’s team of volunteers.

The Network Shop is steadily rebuilding it’s customer base and continues to provide high quality goods at affordable prices.

TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

D) Arts & Events

The events programme provides opportunities for everyone in the community to enjoy a wide variety of cultural activities, as an audience member or participant.

In September 2022 the Trust a new project ‘Thursday at the Coliseum’ an arts and events project to help combat loneliness and isolation and promote social engagement and opportunities for volunteers. The weekly theatre programme of matinees and evening performances offers a wide range of screenings, reminiscence activities, live small - scale theatre, NT Live, music theatre and popular arts events.

The Events programme also hosts regular comedy night performances, host festival events and a wide range of performances and presentations by local community groups and individuals.

The theatre venue also hosts the regular meetings of the local Civic Society, Art Society, U3A, Community Network and other networking and local meetings. Our staff provide a licensed café-bar for evening events, when appropriate. Group catering is also available.

E) Larpool Walled Garden

The Trust has identified the walled garden as an area for development and in May 2022 volunteers and service users began work to restore this neglected site. The project provides a safe and supportive environment for vulnerable adults. Volunteers and service users can self - refer or the Trust accepts referrals from statutory and third sector organisations.

All volunteers and service users are registered and complete induction training before attending the garden. The Trust runs two sessions a week, hosts regular event days, public presentations and works in partnership with three local organisations.

The project offers the opportunity to grow and harvest a wide range of fruit, vegetables and cut flowers, gradually renovate the neglected heritage orchard, develop knowledge, understanding and skills to promote wild life, participate in well -being activities and use the garden as a wild working space.

The Walled Garden volunteers/service users and volunteer Advisory Group are able to use the Coliseum Centre facilities for planning, events and social meetings throughout the year.

Volunteers

The ethos of this charity is to encourage and support people to recognise that everyone has a valuable contribution to make to their own community. A very high proportion of our work is undertaken by volunteers, who are people of all ages, from all walks of life, and with all levels of physical and cognitive abilities.

In 2022 the Trust began to recruit more volunteers to provide both regular and occasional event support and are pleased to see our volunteer numbers increase to over 35 people during the year. Our staff, trustees and professional advisors also contribute significant voluntary effort.

The Whitby Area Development Trust would like to express their gratitude and thank each and every one of our supporters and volunteers. Your assistance and enthusiasm are truly appreciated.

Financial review

Free reserves (general funds less fixed assets less commitments) are -£28,113 (2021:£19,475) these have fallen due to increased investment in fixed long-term assets as part of the renovation of another residential accommodation. Free reserves before lease commitments are £49,074 (2021:£106,412) which would be the equivalent of 3 months’ normal operating expenditure. With these reserves and rent being a reasonable amount per year, this should safeguard its continued operation.

Risk Management

The Trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.

Trustees consider that infections post Covid pandemic poses the most significant risk to the charity, given that the Coliseum Centre is a public venue and a very high proportion of our users are elderly. Most of our residential tenants are vulnerable adults requiring 24-hour attended care. Health & Safety precautions are top priority for the foreseeable future.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

1 Accounting policies

Charity information

Whitby Area Development Trust is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is The Coliseum Centre, Victoria Place, Whitby, YO21 1EZ.

1.1 Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006, FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the Charities SORP "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). The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain items at fair value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2 Going concern

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

1.3 Charitable funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.

1.4 Income

Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

1.5 Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, 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 classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

Allocations of shared support costs are made consistently on the following basis:

WHITBY AREA DEVELOPMENT TRUST

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

1.6 Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

Expenditure on fixed assets costing more than £500 is capitalised. Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

Freehold land and buildings Nil for Coliseum & straight line over 10 years for remaining Plant and equipment Straight line over 10 years Fixtures and fittings Straight line over 10 years Computers Straight line over 4 years

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.

1.7 Impairment of fixed assets

At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).

1.8 Stocks

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell.

Net realisable value is the estimated selling price less all estimated costs of completion and costs to be incurred in marketing, selling and distribution.

1.9 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.

1.10 Financial instruments

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are measured at transaction price.

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are recognised at transaction price.

1.11 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.

WHITBY AREA DEVELOPMENT TRUST

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

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

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.

Shared support costs are allocated across expenditure and the basis can be seen in the expenditure accounting policy.
