## **AETF TREASURER’S REPORT FOR YEAR TO AUGUST 2025** ## **Income** - Our general income was made up as follows – `o` Friends/Donations £ 190 `o` PRF Licences £ 425 `o` Entry Fees £ 740 ## **Expenditure** Alongside our usual insurance and NDFA membership, we made the regular grants to teams traveling to the English Final, along with two Legacy grants. ## **General** 1. The charity has neither discontinued any of its operations nor acquired new ones this year. 2. There were no other gains or losses in the year. 3. These accounts comply with the current statutory requirements and are presented in the format recommended by the Charity Commission. 4. The AETF year runs to the end of August, to follow the timings of a full year of Festivals. ## **Fixed Assets** 1. A full list of trophies owned or administered by the AETF is held by the National Treasurer. It is the responsibility of Area Treasurers to inform the National Treasurer of any changes in holdings or value. The Trustees re-assess the recorded value every five years. 2. AETF has bought no new equipment since 2012. All existing equipment has been written off. ## **Insurance** 1. The AETF covers all AETF organised Festivals for Public & Employers Liability. 2. The AETF also has Trustees Liability cover. 3. A designated account has been set up with sufficient funds to cover the most expensive trophy in the case of theft/loss. ## **Independent Examination** The returns submitted from the four Areas and their respective First Rounds/Divisions are not inspected. These are taken as being correct against the respective Area Treasurer’s signature on behalf of the Trustees. As ‘subsidiaries’ of AETF under our Charity Number then their income and expenditure must be declared as if it is our own.

An examinalion Includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also Includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts. and seeking explanation from the Tnjstees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would required in an audit. and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on these accounts. Independent Examlner's Statement In connectson with my examinatson. no matter has come to my attention.. which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any matenal respect, the trustees have not met the requirements to ensure that. proper accounting records are kept (in accordance with section 41 of the Act)., and accounts are prepared which agree with the accounting records and comply wth the accountiThJ requirements of the Act.. or 2. to which, in my opinion. attentson should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be ￿3¢hed.
