TRUSTEES' REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2024
The Trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the company for the 1 May 2023 to 30 April 2024. The Annual report serves the purposes of both a Trustees' report and a directors' report under company law. The Trustees confirm that the Annual report and financial statements of the charitable company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charitable company's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019).
Since the company qualifies as small under section 382 of the Companies Act 2006, the Strategic report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors' Report) Regulations 2013 has been omitted.
Objectives and activities
a. Policies and objectives
The objectives of the charity are to provide facilities and services in the interests of social welfare in order to improve the conditions of life of the inhabitants of Haywards Heath, West Sussex and the surrounding area, without distinction of gender, sexual orientation, disability or of political, religious or other opinions.
In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance 'Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'.
Achievements and performance
a. Review of activities
The Centre continues to be a focal point for the community, with varied activities serving a wide range of users. Lettings for the Centre have continued to increase with regular groups continuing their hirings. Occasional bookings and commercial bookings continue to provide a valuable source of income as well as providing services in the heart of the community. Although there is some available space for lettings at the Centre, much of the time it is used to full capacity. This is partially the result of favorable comments from users and many recommending the Centre to other groups, friends, and family and partially due to networking by the Centre Manager and communication tools, such as the website and social media. The Centre publicizes its activities and local events on its noticeboards and website, as well as information regarding support for those with health, financial and social difficulties. It has established links with local councils and voluntary bodies. Whilst the wide-ranging use of facilities meets many of our original aims, the board remains keen to outreach further to the community.
Trustees worked with the management Committee to organize and hold a successful open day in the summer. The open day is a valuable opportunity for our user groups to engage with visitors and promote their groups. The open day has become an established annual event and the Trustees and management committee are working together to plan for a similar event for 2024.
The reestablishment of our Cinema took place as planned in the autumn of 2023. Our own Cinema equipment has been installed in the Centre, allowing us to show regular screenings for a modest cost. Winter and early Spring showings have proved to be popular with attendances of between 30 -40, an attendance of 20, covers all cost in showing the film, with surplus income being invested in the Centre.
The Centre Café continues to thrive. Thanks to all the volunteers involved, this important part of the Centre activities has a regular group of users and has become a regular meeting point for some.

Achievements and performance (continued)
The work to the Garden was completed and the new pre-school opened in September, take up has been limited, with the provider hoping numbers would increase in the spring term. Although numbers have increased, the threshold of long-term viability has not been reached. Trustees continue to monitor the situation.
The Management Committee carries out its duties in an effective and professional manner. It provides regular reports to the Trustees to enable the Board to meet its responsibilities. As well as overseeing the daily management of the Centre, the Committee closely monitors income and costs. Kevin Martin is Chairman of the Management Committee and continues to involve the Centre users and local community in the work of his committee. Mrs. Sue Neatherway is the Centre Manager, and they ensure that the Chair of the Board is informed of any potential urgent issues and seek his advice if required. The Chairman of the Board also attends the management meetings. Thanks, continue to be due to the Centre Manager for her dedicated work and the help and assistance she provides to the Chairman of the Board. The Chairman of the board also expresses thanks to Kevin for his ongoing support. Thanks, are also expressed to Kevin for his valuable work to bring the Cinema to fruition and for his technical abilities in the use of the Cinema equipment.
A new boiler was installed in October, and plans to carry out internal decoration are being put in place.
Financial review
a. Going concern
The use of the Centre continues to grow and the Trustees are confident of the future viability of the Centre. The Trustees, therefore, continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the annual financial statements.
b. Reserves policy
The reserves policy is to have reserves at a level which represents at least three months overall running costs and designated funds for large scale maintenance costs and replacement of equipment.
c. Financial risk management objectives and policies
Other than the risks covered by the Charity’s insurance policy, the Board of Trustees (the Board) has not identified any other substantial risks. The cash flow risk identified when the Centre first commenced trading is no longer a concern. The Centre Manager maintains consistent scrutiny of income and expenditure and the Board is given the current position in relation to the budget at every meeting. The Management Committee and the Board continue to monitor risk possibilities and take action if any are identified.
The company, working with the Management Committee, has continued to review its policies and is satisfied that the policies meet the needs of the Centre, its staff, volunteers and users. Copies of the Centre’s policies are available from the company’s offices.
The Centre ensures that maintenance and testing of equipment is carried out regularly and has contracts in place to ensure that health and safety and duty of care requirements are met to a high standard. The fund for larger scale maintenance continues to increase to enable the Centre to undertake any necessary work in the future.

Structure, governance and management
a. Constitution
Ashenground Community Centre is registered as a charitable company limited by guarantee and was set up by a Memorandum of Association.
b. Methods of appointment or election of Trustees
The management of the company is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected and co-opted under the terms of the Memorandum of Association.
The number of Trustees shall be at least four and not more than nine. Not more than four shall be appointed by the Church of the Ascension, Haywards Heath (the “Nominated Trustees”) and the remainder (the “Elected Trustees) shall be elected by the membership.
None of the Trustees, who are also directors for company law purposes, held any beneficial interest in the company at any time.
c. Organisational structure and decision-making policies
The Management Committee (two of whose members have to be Trustees) meets regularly and is responsible for the operations of the Centre. For the Centre Operations there are three employees - the Centre Manager (Mrs Sue Neatherway), the Caretaker and the Board Minutes Secretary.
The Management Committee carries out its duties in an effective and professional manner. It provides regular reports to the Trustees to enable the Board to meet its responsibilities. As well as overseeing the daily management of the Centre, the Committee closely monitors income and costs. Kevin Martin is Chairman of the Management Committee and continues to involve the Centre users and local community in the work of his committee. Mrs. Sue Neatherway is the Centre Manager, and they ensure that the Chair of the Board is informed of any potential urgent issues and seek his advice if required. The Chairman of the Board also attends the management meetings. Thanks, continue to be due to the Centre Manager for her dedicated work and the help and assistance she provides to the Chairman of the Board. The Chairman of board also expresses thanks to Kevin for on-going support.
d. Policies adopted for the induction and training of Trustees
The charity has been fortunate to have attracted a high standard of Trustee with a wide range of skills from other sectors and most of whom have had experience of being a Trustee of other charities. A briefing is provided to new trustees. They are also provided with a copy of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, previous minutes and the annual report and accounts.
Plans for future periods
The financial targets are being met. The Board continues to concentrate on three areas - Business Finance, Capital Expenditure and Development – with the aim of further improving the facilities and services offered whilst ensuring that finances remain sound and can meet any potential increased expenditure.
Trustees continue to monitor the viability of the Pre-School, acknowledging that long term viability is difficult for all commercially operated ventures in a setting such as ours.
.
Work has continued in planning for replacement of the aging garden sheds, with all options being considered. A working group of Trustees have been tasked to work on this project.
Environmental projects including Solar power generation are also being considered.

Members' liability
The Members of the company guarantee to contribute an amount not exceeding £1 to the assets of the company in the event of winding up.
Statement of Trustees' responsibilities
The Trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under company law, the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
∙select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
∙observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP (FRS 102);
∙make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
∙state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards (FRS 102) have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
∙prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2024
Independent examiner's report to the Trustees of Ashenground Community Centre ('the company')
|
I report to the charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the company for the year ended 30 April 2024.
Responsibilities and basis of report
|
As the Trustees of the company (and its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of the company's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
Independent examiner's statement
|
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:
|
accounting records were not kept in respect of the company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
|
|
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
|
|
the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or
|
|
the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities [applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)].
|
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.
This report is made solely to the company's Trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the company's Trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an Independent examiner's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company's Trustees as a body, for my work or for this report.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2024
Ashenground Community Centre is a private charitable company, limited by guarantee, domiciled in England and Wales registration number 4413212 and charity number 1093850. The resgistered office and principal place of business is Southdown Close, Haywards Heath, West Sussex.
2.Accounting policies
|
|
Basis of preparation of financial statements
|
The financial statements 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 2015), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
Ashenground Community Centre meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.
All income is recognised once the company has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
Grants are included in the Statement of financial activities on a receivable basis. The balance of income received for specific purposes but not expended during the period is shown in the relevant funds on the Balance sheet. Where income is received in advance of entitlement of receipt, its recognition is deferred and included in creditors as deferred income. Where entitlement occurs before income is received, the income is accrued.
Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable.
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 accounted for on an accruals basis and has been included under expense categories
that aggregate all costs for allocation to activities.
Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the company's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.
All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.

ASHENGROUND COMMUNITY CENTRE
(A company limited by guarantee)
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2024
2.Accounting policies (continued)
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the company; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the institution with whom the funds are deposited.
|
|
Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
|
Tangible fixed assets costing £100 or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.
Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following bases:
|
|
|
|
Long-term leasehold property
|
|
2% 50 years straight line
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
20% 5 years straight line
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
33% 3 years straight line
|
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
|
|
Liabilities and provisions
|
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.
Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the company anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.
Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Statement of financial activities as a finance cost.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 APRIL 2024
2.Accounting policies (continued)
The company only 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 with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the company to the fund in respect of the year.
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the company and which have not been designated for other purposes.
Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the Trustees for particular purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the company for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.
