TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS’ REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2025

The trustees present their report and accounts for the year ended 31 July 2025.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006 and “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)” (as amended for accounting periods commencing from 1 January 2016).

Objectives and activities

As a registered charity, Sports Aid Eastern, has a wide-ranging trust deed which allows it to perform a number of different charitable functions. These are primarily within the fields of education, disability and social welfare. The main objectives are:

To further the education of young people through the medium of sport.
To encourage those with social and physical disadvantages to improve their lives through sport.
To enable those living in poverty to take advantage of the opportunities offered by sport.

The policies adopted in furtherance of these objects are found in note 1 to the accounts and there has been no change in these during the year.

The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.

Achievements and performance

In 2025 we were able to have a focussed approach to our fundraising and grant making. Our Regional Director and Financial Controller (Alba Consulting) ensured that each lunch club was reaching its potential fundraising opportunity whilst keeping costs controlled. This enabled each lunch club organiser to work with the accountable trustee to consider new approaches to attracting sponsors and lunch attendees.

Sponsorship has been an important objective for each club as this ensures that costs are covered and fundraising on the day is retained for grant making. Efficient booking of speakers and ensuring recipients and parents are in attendance is key to driving attendance and selling the SportsAid mission.

Our website www.sportsaideastern.org.uk continues to be our 24/7 shop window and during 2025 we increased our attention on utilising and growing our digital audiences on Instagram and LinkedIn.

Our lunch club organisers continue to provide efficient and exemplary service in each location and make it possible for us to continue to drive fundraising and grant making across the region. Further, a new lunch club has been established in Norwich, holding its first lunch club in June 2025. This brings the number of lunch clubs operating in the region to nine.

Financial review

The year ended 31 July 2025 and spanning a 12-month period was the twenty sixth accounting year of the operation since the charity was re-formed in the latter part of 1999.

The charity was able to make 22 (2024 - 24) awards totalling £32,500 (2024 - £28,500) which equates to an average of £1,477 per award (2024 - £1,188). The number of disabled athletes supported was 7 representing 32% (2024 - 25%) of the total awards made.

In addition to these grants a further 95 (2024 - 72) awards were made to athletes in Sports Aid Eastern but paid nationally by the Sports Aid Trust and from national sponsors. All qualifying athletes, nominated by their sport’s National Governing Body, in the region were granted awards from either regional or national funds.

SPORTS AID EASTERN

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2025

Administrative expenses were £34,419 (2024 - £26,220) equivalent to £2,868 per month (2024 - £2,185).

The Fund balances at 31 July 2025 were £136,709 (2024 — £113,126) which shows an increase of £23,583 over the year. This balance includes unrestricted funds of £73,256 (2024 - £58,615) part of which will be retained as a reserve in line with the adopted policy with the remainder available for distribution as awards.

No staff were employed by the Charity during the year. The charity's Regional Director (Jane Horridge, Responsa) and the charity Regional bookkeeper (Carole Bailey, Alba Consulting) provided services on a part time consultancy basis and were remunerated partly through the charity’s unrestricted funds.

The trustees have determined a reserves policy to secure the ongoing operation of the charity. This will also include ensuring an orderly wind down or cessation of the charity or dealing with an extended period when events across the region have to cease, as happened during the COVID lockdown. The reserves also need to cover grant commitments made but not paid, although these are recognised as a creditor.

Restricted funds are not included as reserves for this purpose as they need to be expended for the purposes that the funds were received.

As a result of this the trustees believe that an amount of £37,000 needs to be retained in unrestricted funds to provide for the issues mentioned above. Our current unrestricted reserves are £73,256 and therefore these are sufficient to support the ongoing operation of the charity.

Support funding

The trustees are particularly grateful for the £14,500 of funding received from the SportsAid Trust which provides an invaluable contribution towards the administration of the region.

The Team

Melanie Beck commenced her second year as Chairman of the region with Jane Horridge completing her fourth year as Regional Director assisted by Carole Bailey (Alba Consulting) keeping the financial control. We also received digital marketing assistance from Janine Coney during the year which has helped us to create better and focussed digital marketing activity.

SPORTS AID EASTERN

TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2025

The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.

The year ahead

The focus for the financial year 2025/26 will be on establishing further foundations for growth with the ambition of increasing our fundraising, by establishing of new events.

The first event held in Norwich was a huge success and we are working on building on this with two further dates. FRP Advisory, led by Richard Bloomfield, have made a commitment to organise two further lunches and are currently working on getting a sponsor group together.
« We are ambitious in extending our lunch club network and looking at new opportunities to extend our reach. - Finally, we are looking to establish a network of more sponsors across all the lunch clubs. Priority will be given by the management team to the Peterborough lunch club to understand the desire from its current committee to rebuild it into a profitable model.

To further spread the word about our work and encourage more businesses and individuals to support our fundraising efforts we are continuing to invest in digital marketing to increase our social media reach. During last year we saw significant growth in our followers and look to continue this work in the next year by producing interesting and engaging content of the lunches across the region. The aim would be to increase lunch club attendance and attract more sponsors, whilst offering our existing sponsors greater ROI in return for their loyalty. The ongoing investment in marketing and brand building will be dependent upon the continuation of HQ funding.

It is an objective of the trustees to build resilience into the team supporting the Regional Director. Following on from the success of using marketing and finance specialists, we will be recruiting a part time administrator allowing the Regional Director more time to focus on new fundraising opportunities. Further after 4 successful years, during which Sports Aid Eastern saw growth in both local and regional sponsorship, the introduction of new sporting lunch clubs, and a more cohesive management structure, Jane Horridge has made the decision to step down as Regional Director. Sports Aid Eastern would like to thank Jane for all her hard work. The charity has appointed Derek Redmond, former Olympic athlete, as the new Regional Director effective February 2026.

Our strategy remains to do everything we can to support and improve funding of athletes from the Eastern Region. It is our intention to work with HQ to increase the number of athletes in the region proposed by the National Governing Bodies to ensure that all our lunches have a recipient present.

Our management team are working closely with the trustees on producing an updated strategic plan which will be completed by the end of this financial year and provide guiding principles for us moving forward.

Public benefit

The trustees are fully aware of the responsibility of the Charity to meet the obligations of Public Benefit under the requirements of section 4 of the Charities Act 2006.

In the opinion of the trustees the objectives of the charity, stated earlier in this report give a clear identification of the benefits to the public from the work and funds distributed by Sports Aid Eastern. The trustees are also of the opinion that the awards made follow a robust and published evaluation policy that ensures the correct and equitable distribution of charitable funds. These are in no way unreasonably restricted.

Grant making policy

We work in direct conjunction with the national grants committee. There has been a great deal more transparency with all the NGB's over the basis of their selection procedure. This has proved invaluable at a local level when reviewing awards.

In the case of restricted funds these decisions are made in consultation with our partners.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2025

1 Accounting policies

1.2 Going concern

At the time of approving the financial statements, 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 financial statements.

1.3 Charitable funds Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.

Details of the nature and purpose of each of the restricted funds is set out in the notes to the accounts.

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the accounts.

1.4 Incoming resources

Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

1.5 Resources expended

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 classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

Resources expended are recognised in the period in which they are incurred and include attributable VAT which cannot be recovered.

Award payments are decided by an awards committee and are accounted for when the offer is conveyed to the recipient.

1.6 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand and deposits held at call with banks.

1.7 Financial instruments
The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements

In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
