REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES |
for the Year Ended 31st March 2022 |
The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31st March 2022. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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). |
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE |
Charitable activities |
Staffing |
At the start of this financial year several staff remained on partial furlough as services were restricted. This ended in September, however due to the restrictions on some aspects of the services provided, some staff hours had to be reduced for the staff numbers to remain viable whilst the business rebuilds. A staff member was TUPE'd due to the closure of the offsite second café which was then put out to tender by the landlord. |
Leaseholders |
The majority of our leaseholders have remained the same during this financial year, We lost one licence holder who had outgrown the space available, but towards the end of the year, we had 2 new licence holders in place. |
Woody's Warren, Café and Playbarn and Brook Park Cafe |
Both cafes continued to struggle to rebuild due to the ongoing restrictions and the uncertainty of the community. Woody's Warren continued to supply nursery meals and in October started to also supply meals to our Age UK group. |
Opening hours in both cafés were reduced to the core busy periods to save on costs and other measures were also introduced to balance figures more effectively. |
Woody's Warren was successful in starting to increase daily trade as well as offsetting costs with its other regular contracts. |
Unfortunately, Brook Park café was closed in December due to significant continuing losses combined with the support being received to offset the costs finishing. |
Events |
Whilst socially distancing and other restrictions continued, we managed to run several events over the year by making them well spaced out and running them outside where possible |
The events are shown below: |
Holiday Eatwell Activities |
Summer Event |
Environmental Event |
Christmas Event |
Children's disco |
Health and Safety |
There was 1 reportable accident during this year. |
We continued with our planned maintenance schedule and replaced flooring and lighting in areas of the building as needed. We also replaced a large number of pumps and a motor in the plant room. |
PARK LANE CENTRE (REGISTERED NUMBER: 04992631) |
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES |
for the Year Ended 31st March 2022 |
Environmental |
The Centre has continued its commitment to make as little environmental impact as possible. Cardboard, paper, glass, plastic, cans, toner cartridges, batteries and light bulbs are collected for recycling. |
Our Biomass Boiler and funded Solar Panelling installations will help make us more environmentally sustainable through carbon neutral provision, |
We installed 2 double electric vehicle charge points in our car park. |
Room Bookings |
Room bookings began to increase from September with more group and courses returning and starting up. |
The covid vaccination centre run by Woodside Pharmacy has continued vaccinations. |
Funding |
Park Lane Centre has worked to apply for funding to address the needs of our community during and after the pandemic. |
We received grants to update our computers, support a new youth club, support hirers, swapping to LED lighting and install water collection devices, install electric vehicle charge points, run a Christmas event, create Christmas packs to support isolated people over Christmas, replace some tables and to provide holiday activities and breakfast packs for families in receipt of free school meals. |
The Future |
Park Lane Centre continues to face financial challenges during the year as the local budgets continue to reduce and the long-term impact of the global pandemic becomes apparent. We will seek to support our existing groups as well as attracting new customers to help us remain sustainable. |
We will continue to seek funding for capital future projects. |
Park Lane Centre will continue to promote itself and its services at every opportunity whilst seeking out other means of increasing income. |
Budgets will be monitored to ensure that there is no wastage of resources and contracts with suppliers will be reviewed to ensure that best value is obtained in every case. |

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Park Lane Centre ('the Company') |
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31st March 2022. |
Responsibilities and basis of report |
As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also 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 your charity's accounts as 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 |
Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a registered member of Chartered Accountant which is one of the listed bodies. |
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: |
1. | accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or |
2. | the accounts do not accord with those records; or |
3. | 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 |
4. | 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. |
