|this activity are given<br>in the review ofachievements<br>and performance<br>below.||||||||
|The trustees see the successful<br>development<br>ofthe country park ss a vital component<br>to the objectives snd activities ofthe charity end in providing<br>suitably enhanced<br>local and|wider public benefit|at the earliest||||||
|opportunity.<br>Also, the trustees were and remain<br>committed<br>to engaging<br>in appropriate<br>fundraising<br>campaigns<br>to finance the construction<br>ofthe sport lakes. Sporting organisations<br>and the local community<br>have <br>and will continue to be engaged<br>and consulted<br>during the development<br>ofthe sport lakes, soas to ensure that the facilities produced are designed<br>for excellence and are useable and accessible by ag. The||||||been||
|philosophy<br>ofCambridge<br>Sport Lakes remains<br>to secure access to sport for aN, irrespective o(sge, gender,<br>ability, income, ethnic origin or beliefs.||||||||
|Structure, Governance<br>and Management||||||||
|Cambridge<br>Sport Lakes Trust iss company<br>limited by guarantee<br>and not having a share capital.<br>Itwas incorporated<br>under the Companies<br>Act 1985and has been authorised<br>to|dispense<br>with the word 'limited'|||||in its||
|name.<br>h is s regstered<br>charity (number<br>1040693),||||||||
|There are no restrictions<br>on the charity's<br>power to invest. The investment<br>strategy is set by the trustees for a period offive years and takes account ofthe expected demand<br>for|funds. The trustees consider||the|||||
|income requirements,<br>the risk profile and the investment<br>manager's<br>view ofthe market prospects<br>in the medium<br>term. This strategy<br>is set within an overag policy which states that the investment<br>fund is to be|||||invested|||
|in low and medium<br>risk investments<br>with a view to ensuring<br>that capital appreciation<br>ofthe fund exceeds inflation over each five year period. Our strategy is reviewed<br>with our investment<br>managers||annually.||||||
|Objecbves and Activities||||||||
|The trust is presently<br>engaged<br>in the creation ofthe Cambridge<br>Country<br>Park and Sport Lake<br>and<br>will in future be engaged<br>in the maintenance<br>and operation ofthe facilities. The trustees are ofthe <br>by fund basis, that assets are available to fuiril the obligations<br>ofthe chanty. The trust currently operates<br>Mdton Country<br>Park under a 99year lease, dated<br>1 Apnl 2008.||opinion,||on|||a fund|
|Fundraising<br>approach ofthe charity||||||||
|The Trust is actively engaged<br>in fundraising<br>at a number ofdifferent levels, Through our trading<br>activities st Milton Country Park we deliver an extensive<br>programme<br>ofactivities and events that provide accessible<br>facilities to a wide range of individuals<br>and groups across the private,<br>public and charitable sectors. Funds are received<br>into the Country<br>Park in this way. One example<br>would be our annual<br>Autumn<br>Festival event,||||||||
|which we organise<br>in-house<br>with the specific remit ofraismg funds to support the park facilities.||||||||
|For the Cambridge<br>Sport Lakes development<br>our principal<br>fund raising strategy is based around the value that we will be able to lever out ofthe site once a planning<br>permission|to develop is agreed.|||||||
|The Trust does not currently<br>employ<br>any external fundraising<br>services.||||||||
|The trust doesn't have any formal fund raising structures,<br>activities or pracNces. There are no aggressive<br>fund raising techniques<br>employed<br>by the trust to generate funds from members ofthe public. Members<br>ofthe<br>public can donate/make<br>a voluntary<br>contribution<br>to the organisation<br>via the post or in person atthe Country<br>Park, through a specific Justgiving<br>page, by phone or via the trust/Country<br>perk websites. Income from the<br>Country<br>Park in the form of parking receipts,<br>hire of visitor centre space and third party payments<br>to support<br>community<br>or sportmg<br>activities promoted<br>by the trust are deemed<br>sufficient to meet the aims and||||||||
|objectives ofthe charitable<br>trust.||||||||
|Achievements<br>and Performance||||||||
|The Trustees sre pleased<br>to report a strong set ofresults for the year to 31 March 2022.||||||||
|As was the case for many businesses<br>and organisations,<br>the previous<br>trading<br>year to March 2021 had intxuded a number of fluctuatiorts<br>around the covid 19pandemic.||||||||
|Thankfully<br>the reporting<br>year to March 2022was not significsntly<br>impacted<br>on by Covid and contained<br>no direct support grants to this end.||||||||
|The Trustees are therefore pleased to report that the business ofthe Trust has proven to be resilient.||||||||
|Our conhdence<br>in the consistency<br>ofthe underlying<br>trading that is now established<br>at Milton Country<br>Park bodes weN for the future.||||||||
|The Trust has again been able to deliver capital investment<br>into the Country<br>Park through<br>a combination<br>ofcharitable<br>grants and income earned<br>from trading<br>activities. These improvements<br>continue to have|||||a|||
|positive impart on both trading performance<br>and our balance sheet valuation.||||||||
|There is no doubt that the demand<br>for publidy accessible green open space is on an upward<br>trend and that ag who participate<br>in the provision<br>ofsuch facilities share a moral obligation to Nnd ways||to meet|the||||growth|
|needs ofthe populations<br>they serve.||||||||
|Looking ahead the Trust is a resilient going concern, with proof ofboth its current business<br>plan and an ever stronger case for the need to expand the Country Park facilities to|meet the rapidly developing||needs in|||||
|north Cambndge<br>and beyond.||||||||
|The Trust is steadfast<br>in the pursuit of its goals and is well placed to provide s positive influence<br>and outcomes at a local, regional,<br>national and indeed<br>international<br>level in the|future.|||||||
|Our aspirations<br>will only be achieved<br>by working<br>in partnership<br>with the relevant<br>authorittes<br>and other organisations<br>on a cogaborstive<br>basis.||||||||
