Flnanclal Revlew
The financial results for the year ended 31 March 2024 are set out in the Statement of Financial Activities on
pages 17-18 with assets, liabilities and reserves shown in the Balance sheet on page 19. The results of the
Trading subsidiary are detailed within the notes along with all other information supporting the financial
statements on pages 22-41.
Income for the year arnounted to £20,354,454 12023 £17,947,399) with expenditure £18,928,103 {2023
£17,327,072) and a resulting surplus of £729,026 {2023 deficit £11,069).
During the financial year, BPL'S key financial goals were to 8row income by 12%, hedge gas prices to keep energy
costs down and maintain healthy product and payroll mar8ins.
In working towards those goals, we:
put in place approprlate pricing structure5 whlch protected the brand but also allowed the business to stay
competitive and meet its charitable and social aims
explored additional revenue streams, models and opportunities to extend services Outside the exi5tin8
portfolio
continued to build collaborative relationships to create synergies and extend the reach of our services in the
community
continued to seek out alternative funding opportunities for the delivery of projects and incentives as
efficiently and economically as possible
continued to develop our customer relationship management system to improve customer experience and
create efficient and quality data feeding other accounting and reporting systems
worked towards implementing new Financial and Human Resources systems to provide automated
solutions with more robust internal controls and stronger audit trails
To grow revenue, we targeted specific areas for development opportunities and managed costs as efficlently as
possible. For many years, aging facilities have been a concern for the group. This has been identified as a key
risk. We hope that through joint working with local authority partners we will formulate long term strategies for
ensuring the continuation of services for the boroughs,

Prlnclpal Sources of Funding
We are a fee charging enterprise: however, the pricin8 pollcy is managed to ensure that the economlcally and
socially deprived obtain greater discounts on the activities through the local authorities Leisure card
arrangements. In addition, we offer preferential rates to clubs. societies. groups and for other similar charities to
support the achievement of their objectives.
Management Fee Subsidles
We rely on a subsidy from Bassetlaw District Council, set out In the management agreement, to offset certaln
costs and loss-making activities, This also allows access to senlices for disadvantaged individuals through service
management.
Although we have agreed a nil management fee with Barnsley Metropolitan Borough Council, both the council
and BPL are committed to supporting each other through a partnership approach.
Resources Deployed
We recognise our unique selling point is our people and the servlces they deliver. To attrart and retaln staff, we
have continued to invest in our Employee Value Proposition and Reward & Recognition Programme, Our
Leadership and Capability framework, currently under development, will provide clear pathways for progression
and development.
Surplus Generation and Investment
We have focussed on rebuildlng free reserves which were consumed in recent years to absorb the Impact of the
Covld-19 pandemic and our subsequent recovery. This is reflected in the company's reserrfe pollcy, which is
shown below. The trustees, although recognising that free reserves provide general protertion against external
conditions and their impact on the business, are of the opinion that resources being invested in the business for
furthering the business are also important in maintaining the business, whilst also realising the group's grovrth
ambitions.
Durin8 the year, we have continued to invest in energy saving initiates and to promote responsible practices
around energy consumption. The success of Barnsley and Bassetlaw councils in securing funds through the
Swimming Pool Support Fund ISPSF} boosted cash reser4es and will enable further capital investment on
renewable energy initiatives.
Wider economic influences in recent years have meant that we had to approach investment carefully, deferring
some planned investments in facilities altogether. The group now recognises the need to get back to cyclical and
strategically appropriate investments which increase capacity and reinforce the organisation's brand, creating
Clear and consistent offering,
Reserves Pollcy
The trustees have reviewed the Reserves Policy and level of unrestricted funds and have determined that target
reserves should be at least three months of income resources for the group. This is a satisfactory reserve which
could be drawn upon to sustain operations effectively. All cash and bank account balances, excluding the bank
deposit account held as a Bassetlaw Pension Bond, are classified as free reserves for this purpose.

BARNSLEY PREMIER LEISURE
THE TRUSTEES, AND STRATEGIC REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
We recognise the need to invest in the business on an ongoing basis, whether thls is to protect activities, to grow
income streams or to provide cyclical renewals to maintain aging facilities. In doing so the trustees appreciate
that the free reserves profile may drop below target during the upcoming flnancial year. We shall continue to
review Investments as part of our long-term strategy and to note the impact on target reserves at Board
meetings in discussions.
Risk Management and Uncertalnties
Outside the UK'S current economic pressures, we maintain a corporate risk register for the Group. The likelihood
and impact of the risk involved are considered in relation to our business model, our culture and our ability to
deliver our purpose of 'Helping people feel good" Each strateglc area maintalns a risk register, and where
these risks are deemed to have significance for the organisation, they are then added to the Group Risk Register.
The Board of Trustees review the Risk Register on a quarterly basis to ensure that all appropriate risks are
identified and that strategies have been agreed to mitigate, transfer or absorb key risk5.
Key Rlsks
The Deterioration of our estate remain5 a prlncipal risk, as does the economic challen8es of our local authorities,
which wlll Inevltably have an impact on their ability to Invest in facilities and services.
Our venues have high levels of usage and there is a risk that without on80ing investment customer experience
decreases and increased risk of plant failure. We continue to work with our council partners to explore different
models and to identify funding solutions.
In addition to this we have reviewed the adequacy of the companVs internal financial controls, and these are
compliant with the Charlty Commisslon's guldelines,

Responslbllltles of trustees
As explained rnore fully in the trustees, responsibilities Statement set out on page 10, the trustees {who are also
the directors of the parent charitable company for the purposes of company lawl are responsible for the
preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such
internal control as the trustees determine is nece55ary to enable the preparation of flnancial statements that are
free from material mlsstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responslble for assessing the groups and parent charitable
company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosin& as applicable, matters related to going concern and
using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the group or parent
charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Audltorfs responsibllltles for the audit of the flnanclal statements
We have been appointed auditor under Companies Act 2006 and section 151 of the Charities Act 2011 and
report in accordance with those Acts.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free
from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditorfs report that Includes our
opSnion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but Is not a 8uarantee that an audit conducted in
accordance with ISAS (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise
from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be
expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
Irregularities, including f raud, are instances of non-compliance wlth laws and re6ulatlons. We design procedures
In Ilne with our responsibilities, outllned above, to detect material rnisstatements In respect of Irre8ularities,
including fraud. The specific procedures for thls engagement and the extent to whlch these are capable of
detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
We gained an understanding of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the charitable company {and its
subsidiary) and the industry in which it operates, and considered the risk of acts by the company that were
contrary to applicable laws and regulations, Includin8 fraud. We design audit procedures to respond to the rlsk,
recognising that the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not
detectin8 one resulting from error. as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or
intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion.
We foc.ussed on laws and regulations which could give rise to a material misstatement in the financial
statements, including, but not limited to the Companies Act 2006, Charitie5 Act 2011 and UK tax legislation. Our
tests included a8reein8 the financial statements disclosures to underlying supporting documentatlon and
enquiries with management. There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and, the
further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the
financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it. We did not identify any key audit matters
relating to irregularities, including fraud. As in all our audits, we also addressed the risk of management override
of Internal controls, including testing journals and evaluating whether there was evidence of bias by the
dlrectors that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial
Reporting Council's website at www.frc.or
auditorsres
onsibilities. This description forms part of our
Report of the Auditors.
14

BARNSLEY PREMIER LEISURE
INDEPENDENT AUDITORS, REPORTTO THE MEMBERS
YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
Because of the inherent limitations of an audlt, there 55 a rlsk that we will not detect all irregularlties, Including
those leadin8 to a material misstatement in the financial staternents or non-compliance with regulation. This
risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation 15 removed from the events and transactions
reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance.
The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves
intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omisslon or misrepresentation.
As part of an audit in accordance wlth ISAS {UK), we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional
scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the groups or the parent charitable company's
financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to
those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting
from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the
override of internal control.
Obtain an understanding of interna5 control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that
are appropriate in the clrcumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness of the group's internal control.
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policles used and the reasonableness of accountlng estlmates
and related disclosures made by the trustees.
Conclude on the appropriateness of the trustees, use of the going concern basis of accountin8 and, based
on the audit evidence obtalned, whether a materlal uncertainty exlsts related to events or conditions that
may cast significant doubt on the groups or parent charitable company's ability to Continue as a going
concern. If we conclude that a material uncertalnty exists, we are required to draw attention In our
auditor's report to the related disclosures In the financial statements or, if such di5clostsres are
inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the
date of our auditorfs report. However, future events or conditions may cause the group or parent
charitable company to cease to continue as a going concern.
Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statement5, including the
di5c105ures. and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transaction5 and events in
manner that achieves fair presentation {i.e. gives a true and fair view).
Obtain sufficient appropriate audlt evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business
activities within the group to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We are
responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely
responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and
timing of the audit and significant audit findings, Including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we
identify during our audit.

Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost or valuation less accumulated depreciation and accumulated
impairment losses. Cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as
intended.
Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets at rates calculated to write off the cost of an asset, less
its estimated residual value over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:
Land & buildings
Fixtures, equipment and IT
Leasehold property improvements
Motor vehicles
4% stralght Ilne
IO% to 33% straight line
IO% straight line

(k) Tax
The charity is an exempt charity within the meaning of schedule 3 of the Charitles Act 2011 and is
considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph I Schedule 6 Finance Art 2010 and therefore it Meets the
definition of a charitable company for UK corporatlon tax purposes.
(l) Going concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no
material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of
Income and expenditure for 12 months from authorlslng these financial statements. The budgeted income
and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a goin8
concern.
(m) Debtors and creditors receivable / payable within one year
Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded
at transaction price. Any losses arislng from Impalrment are recognlsed In expenditure.
(n) Loans and borrowlngs
Loans and borrowin8s are inltially recognised at the transactlon prlce including transaction costs.
Subsequently, they are measured at amortlsed cost using the effective interest rate method, less
Impairment. If an arrangement constltutes a flnance transaction it is measured at present value.
(o) Slgnlflcant Judgements and Estlmates
The significant judgements and estimates used in the preparation of the financial statements are:
The defined benefit pensions schemes operated by the Trust are included in the financlal
statements at a valuation determlne by independent actuarie5. The a55umption5 used are
detailed in note 8 of the flnancial statements.
The investment property held by the Trust is included in the financial statements at a recent
valuation undertaken by an expert. The trustees still believe this valuation to be accurate at the
balance sheet date.
There are no other key assumptions concerning the future and other key sources of estimation uncertainty
at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing material adjustment to the carrying amounts of
a55ets and liabilities within the next financial year.
