MEDWAY CENTRE COMMUNITY ASSOCIATION

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

The trustees have pleasure in presenting their report and the examined financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2022.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

A) To promote the benefit of the inhabitants of the area without distinction of sex or of political religious or other opinions by associating the local authorities, voluntary organisations and inhabitants in a common effort to advance education and to provide facilities in the interests of social welfare and leisure time occupation with the object of improving the conditions of life for the said inhabitants.

B) To establish or to secure the establishment of a community centre and to maintain and manage or to co-operate with any local statutory authority on the maintenance and management of such a centre for activities promoted by the Association and its constituent bodies.

SUMMARY OF THE MAIN ACTIVITIES UNDERTAKEN FOR THE PUBLIC BENEFIT IN RELATION TO THESE OBJECTS

In planning our activities for the year we kept in mind the Charity Commissions guidance on public benefit at our trustees meetings.

Medway Centre Community Association is open to all individuals irrespective of race, gender or other personal circumstances.

Review of the Year’s developments activities and achievements

The year to March 2022 was still affected by Covid-19 and we started in April 2021 with a limited number of groups operating. EMH Care and Support, Bakewell Infant School, Bakewell Youth Theatre, Jonathan Mallalieu’s piano lessons and the Peak Performance Theatre School attended regularly and we had intermittent visits from the Age UK Foot Clinic.

In May we had our first Craft Fair in the Hall and regular users Rhythm Time, JH Fitness and the Pilates group returned. Bakewell Youth Theatre were able to put on a performance of Our House which was, as usual, very enthusiastically received.

June saw the majority of restrictions lifted and over the summer we were running at about 50% of our usual activity. The PB Theatrical group came to perform Iolanthe, Oxfam held a successful cream tea afternoon and Music Masters put on a show but sadly with a limited audience.

September we finally had a great celebration for George Challenger as well as the very successful Stars of the West End show. Into the autumn we hosted Tinderbox Theatre performance of ‘Alexa’ and regulars like The Wee Dram whisky tastings, Five Rhythms Dance and the Rotary Quiz. Matthew Croke hosted a Charity Concert that raised money for Cancer Research and local business Violets and Daisies held a wreath making workshop.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

In January we were again locked down so many regular groups did not appear. We were able to use this time to spend the last National Lottery fund grant on installing the fantastic new curtains in the Hall and update some of the sound and lighting equipment.

February saw the Oxfam Fashion Show and the exceptional show put on by Bakewell Youth Theatre of Into The Woods. Unfortunately the Infant School stopped coming to the Medway, but this was only to be a temporary halt until June 2022.

Obviously, this has severely affected our cashflow but where possible we were able to save on operating costs especially by using the staff furlough scheme from April until September, as well as making savings where possible.

In September 2021 Sue Stones was appointed as the Assistant Administrator and she has worked hard to take on this new challenge. We wouldn’t be without her now! In March 2022 we were joined by Aaron Turner on a six month Kickstarter scheme and he is proving an excellent addition to the team with all his wages paid through the scheme.

Colin will report on the financial detail of yet another tricky year and I would like to thank him for all his support and vigilance during the worst times of the pandemic.

The Centre is now operating at about 60% occupancy and we are working hard to keep the place going. The bookings for the summer have increased and I hope by the autumn we will be back on track.

Thanks as ever for all the support.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

RESERVES

The Association aims to have reserves to cover current operating costs.

The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

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 is carried at market value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

These are accounts for the year ended 31 March 2022 are the first accounts of Medway Centre Community Association prepared in accordance with FRS 102, The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland.

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

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.

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

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

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 no financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments.

1.10 Employee benefits

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.
