| OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES |
| Objectives and aims |
| We Hub Building is a charity assisting people to become financially independent either through supporting them in business or securing employment. We Hub Building assists in creating opportunities for everyone at any stage and in any situation. The main way We Hub Building achieves this objective is by supporting and providing the building and other facilities to The Work Avenue Foundation, a charity registered the UK which carries out the operational activity of assisting people into employment. |
| Significant activities |
| During last financial year, We Hub Building, who already had a 31% interest in Redbourne Avenue LLP, were gifted additional interest in Redbourne Avenue LLP by the other members, such that We Hub Building currently has 99.9% membership interest in Redbourne Avenue LLP. Based on the net assets of Redbourne on the date that the deed of transfer of membership interests was signed, the value of the donation to We Hub was calculated to be £258,486 |
| In addition, Redbourne Avenue LLP had existing loan agreements in place with the existing members for a total of £2 million, which the existing members transferred to We Hub Building, also by way of gift last year. This meant the total donations recognised in We Hub Building's accounts last year was £2,258,486 whilst this year, no donations were included in We Hub Building's accounts. |
| Redbourne Avenue LLP had an existing loan relationship with We Hub Building which on the date that the deed of transfer of membership interests was signed stood at £1,971,260. With the gifting of the loan agreements of £2 million from the existing members of Redbourne, the total loan owed by Redbourne Avenue LLP to We Hub Building at last year's balance sheet date was £3,971,260. This year, the total loan owed by Redbourne Avenue LLP as of 31st December 2024 was calculated to be £4,030,760 due to further payments made to Redbourne Avenue LLP during 2024. |
