The Cknity's financial p)siuon at the end of 2021122 show5 a decrease in net assets of £86,773 to £15.954.314 (2020r21: £16.041,087) driven largdy by a reduction within our endowment funds of £67.4 and decreases in wlrestticted fill5 of £19.373. 7.5. The Chariry's endonent totall1 £]5,896,4 (2020121: £15.963.800), include tangible and investment fixed &&sets. Tangible fixed assets totalling £9.714,653 (2020121: £9.735.378). support the public access to gcM)d quality sports and leisure faciliues. including Mile End and Stepney Green Park as well as the pavilions and football pitches on park lands. Investment assets totalling £6,273,900 (2020121.. £6,319,700), are held to generate rental income to further support the charitable objects of the Cljarity. 7.6. The Chariry's unresttic*d fun& totalling a sutplus of £57.914 (2020121: £77287 surplu5) comprises the cumulative surplusldeficits at the year-end. All rental income arising from investment assets beld in the endowment fimd is credited dÉrecdy to thi8 fun& The unrestiicted fund is available to use in carrying out the charitable objects of the Charity. 7.7. The Charity currently does not have a policy on level of reserves since the sole Trustee is the Inndon Borough of Tower Hamlets. which meets in full the Charity's net expenditure. so the Charitys funding is secured. The Tnt Charity Board therefore has not ser up any financial reserves to protect against any unforeseen fluctuauons in income or expenditure. 12
The key risks to the Charity include financial. reputational and public safety risks. 8.1. Incoll generatio e Park management team. on behalf of the Charity. acts to create a sustainable income stream to suppon the maintenance of the park and its in£rastriictuze. The Green Bridge rentalunits PrOde a significantcontribullon to the Chariry's Iorne stream. In relation to this property rental income stream we have identified the following Non payn]ent of rent/arreaTS . Tenants vacatinwserving Notice Breaches of leases To mitigate against the above zisk8 a competent lettings agent. appointed by the Counckl. manages the tenancy arrangements for the Green Bridge rental unÉts to ensure best value and good DhageMent of tenants. 8.2. Rental aTreazs: The lettings agent takes a proactive approach to MOtOrIg Tental income and take early inteentiOn if there are any i&gues identified with a tenant. If required. the council can undertake debt recovery action ensuring rent is received and arrears Historically the rentsl units have been fiY occupied with a low nThover of tenants. Some of the units have been occupied by the same tenants for over ten years and a]ng the pandemic only one tenant Ceased to trade. and they easily assigned theirlease, showing the resilien of the location. The location is attractive to a wide range of businesses due to its proximiry to Mile End tube station. a nearby universiry and residential areas that provide a high level of footfall. With a large number 0£ the tenants benefitting from Security of Tenure under the landlord and Tenant Act 1954, they would have to serve notice on the landlord to leave. As a result, there will be at least a 3-month notice perioj. which will assist 13
in the marketing of the unit and would hOPellY mitigate the risk of a void period and loss of income. In the event of a unit being vacant for a period of time the Charity could utilise the council's Meanwhile Use progrnmThe to temporarily occupy a vacant urrit th a 'pop-up' shop. thereby maintaining the vitality of the location. It also l)as the impact of maintaining (Kcupation. and therefore mitigates void costs. as well as the risk of Squatters. 8.4. Breaches of lease5: t£ases are monitored by the letEing agent and the Park management team with support from the council's enfoT¢ement and legal teams if required. This approach enables any breaches or compliancy tssues to be resolved as quickly as possible. 8.5. In addition to rental income, the Charity also relies on income generated through the venue hire of the Arts and Ecology Pavilions. The Park management team promotes and manages bookings for the pavilions. which are now well-established venues foi weddings. private. commercial and corporate events that generaEe income. tmprovements include setting up an Instagram account, which h&8 helped to increase the number of enquiries and booknngs. Although there are peak periods for hirers (SPliDg to autunin). the Park management team continue to diversity the range of dients and adapt to changing markei c0nsidetatios. The Park management team opeTates a compreheLsive inspection and repair regime for the Chariry's la1 and facilities. In addition. the Chariry reinvests some of the income generated through bires to upgrade facilities and equipment to ensure its open spaces and buildings are safe 8lld welcotning places for the public and comroercial nants and venue hireTr. In addition. the councils Facilities Management team undertake regular preventative maintenance and surveys. This ovedl approach of Maintaining and investing reduces the risk of significant buildinWfacility failures that could lead to larger and unplanned for repairs andlor replacement costs. 8.7. Reputational and Safety Risk&. As outlined above, income frorn tenancies and hires is utilised to undertake repairs and maintenance of the Charity's assets. This approach enables the Charkty to 14
ensure Health and Safety leIall0n is complied wlth and that the buildings remain in a good state of repair. As the venues are hired out regularly, it is important both operationally and reputstionally that the buildings are well Enaintained. The Parks ngeMent team implements safe practices for the park8 and amerrities including regular patrols by Park Rangers with any issues recorded and reported to nianagement. There are operational procedures for the Tegular inspection and maintenance of play and equipment by trained park staff and independent play inspectors. These operating procedures have been developed in line with the relevant guidance and reviewed by the coullcÈl's CA)Tporate Health and Safety team. AdditionaI monitoring and maintenance of the Charity's park lands is undertaken by the Council's Green Team who eL8ure that the land is well maintained. The combination of regular Park patrols and Green Team maintenance helps to ensure that the Charity's land is well Tnaintained and a safe environment for people to visit. 9.1.

Irregularities. irKbJding fraud, are insta$ of norKompli?nce kws and feguEations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilitres, ovuined above. to detect matertal misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraLKI. The extent lo 1¢h our pioeedures are capable of detecty.ng irregularities. including fraud. is detailed below. Dotsction of fraud and bfeach8s of regulatio To identify risks ofmalerial misstatement ¢Jue to fraud. we considered events or conditions that could indicate an incentive or pressure to MMIt fraud or provide an Opplty io do so.

We communicated idtnbfied fraud risks throughout our team and rna1ned alert to any indications of fraud throughout the audil. To identify risks of Materi mÈs$tstement due to rKxFcompliance thryth layts 8T regulatTrons. our approach vras a$ follows.. We identified areas of laws and regulations that could reasoTrabty be expected lo have a material effect on the financial statements from our general charity experience. ond through discussion with the trustees and other management (as required by auditing standards). and discussed wsih the trustee5 and other management the pdicies and procedures regarding mpliance wlh laws and re9uEations', We consjdered the legal and regulaw frame*Drks di¢t aPIcable to the ffinanaal statements reporting framework IFRS 102 and the Charilies Act 20111 and the Televanl tax compliance regulation5', We wnsidered Ihe nalU ofthe industy, the control enwronment and charity s performance. 20
procedures included: testing manual iown8ls.' wwng the finan(ial statement disdosures and testing lo supporting documentation.. performing allalytil procedures," and enquiries of management, and wer8 designed to Pfovide reasonable assurnnce that the finanry81 slalements were free from fraud or error. (ing to the Inhnt limitations of an audit. there is an unavoidable risk th8t we may not have deteded some material misslalements in the financial statements. even though we have properfy planned and performed our audit in accordance with aUd'ng standards_ For example. the ftsrther removed norF Compliance with laws and regulations is from Ihe evenis and transaction5 reflecled in the financial statements, the less likely the inherently limited prOUTeS required by auditing standards would identify IL The risk is also greater regarding non-delection of fraud rather than error, as fraud may involve intentional concealment, fofgery. collusion, omission or misrepresentats"on.

All income generated within the King GeoTge s Fidd clwity lands go to the charities accounts to support the public access to good quality SPOrts and leisure facilities. 7.3. The Chariry generates income to fimd the Mainte[rtCe of the park and its progranune of artivities. This income is generdted througlL" Rentals of shop/restaurant units plus climbing wall centre.

The Cknity's financial p)siuon at the end of 2021122 show5 a decrease in net assets of £86,773 to £15.954.314 (2020r21: £16.041,087) driven largdy by a reduction within our endowment funds of £67.4 and decreases in wlrestticted fill5 of £19.373. 7.5. The Chariry's endonent totall1 £]5,896,4 (2020121: £15.963.800), include tangible and investment fixed &&sets. Tangible fixed assets totalling £9.714,653 (2020121: £9.735.378). support the public access to gcM)d quality sports and leisure faciliues. including Mile End and Stepney Green Park as well as the pavilions and football pitches on park lands. Investment assets totalling £6,273,900 (2020121.. £6,319,700), are held to generate rental income to further support the charitable objects of the Cljarity. 7.6. The Chariry's unresttic*d fun& totalling a sutplus of £57.914 (2020121: £77287 surplu5) comprises the cumulative surplusldeficits at the year-end. All rental income arising from investment assets beld in the endowment fimd is credited dÉrecdy to thi8 fun& The unrestiicted fund is available to use in carrying out the charitable objects of the Charity. 7.7. The Charity currently does not have a policy on level of reserves since the sole Trustee is the Inndon Borough of Tower Hamlets. which meets in full the Charity's net expenditure. so the Charitys funding is secured. The Tnt Charity Board therefore has not ser up any financial reserves to protect against any unforeseen fluctuauons in income or expenditure. 12
The key risks to the Charity include financial. reputational and public safety risks. 8.1. Incoll generatio e Park management team. on behalf of the Charity. acts to create a sustainable income stream to suppon the maintenance of the park and its in£rastriictuze. The Green Bridge rentalunits PrOde a significantcontribullon to the Chariry's Iorne stream. In relation to this property rental income stream we have identified the following Non payn]ent of rent/arreaTS . Tenants vacatinwserving Notice Breaches of leases To mitigate against the above zisk8 a competent lettings agent. appointed by the Counckl. manages the tenancy arrangements for the Green Bridge rental unÉts to ensure best value and good DhageMent of tenants. 8.2. Rental aTreazs: The lettings agent takes a proactive approach to MOtOrIg Tental income and take early inteentiOn if there are any i&gues identified with a tenant. If required. the council can undertake debt recovery action ensuring rent is received and arrears Historically the rentsl units have been fiY occupied with a low nThover of tenants. Some of the units have been occupied by the same tenants for over ten years and a]ng the pandemic only one tenant Ceased to trade. and they easily assigned theirlease, showing the resilien of the location. The location is attractive to a wide range of businesses due to its proximiry to Mile End tube station. a nearby universiry and residential areas that provide a high level of footfall. With a large number 0£ the tenants benefitting from Security of Tenure under the landlord and Tenant Act 1954, they would have to serve notice on the landlord to leave. As a result, there will be at least a 3-month notice perioj. which will assist 13
in the marketing of the unit and would hOPellY mitigate the risk of a void period and loss of income. In the event of a unit being vacant for a period of time the Charity could utilise the council's Meanwhile Use progrnmThe to temporarily occupy a vacant urrit th a 'pop-up' shop. thereby maintaining the vitality of the location. It also l)as the impact of maintaining (Kcupation. and therefore mitigates void costs. as well as the risk of Squatters. 8.4. Breaches of lease5: t£ases are monitored by the letEing agent and the Park management team with support from the council's enfoT¢ement and legal teams if required. This approach enables any breaches or compliancy tssues to be resolved as quickly as possible. 8.5. In addition to rental income, the Charity also relies on income generated through the venue hire of the Arts and Ecology Pavilions. The Park management team promotes and manages bookings for the pavilions. which are now well-established venues foi weddings. private. commercial and corporate events that generaEe income. tmprovements include setting up an Instagram account, which h&8 helped to increase the number of enquiries and booknngs. Although there are peak periods for hirers (SPliDg to autunin). the Park management team continue to diversity the range of dients and adapt to changing markei c0nsidetatios. The Park management team opeTates a compreheLsive inspection and repair regime for the Chariry's la1 and facilities. In addition. the Chariry reinvests some of the income generated through bires to upgrade facilities and equipment to ensure its open spaces and buildings are safe 8lld welcotning places for the public and comroercial nants and venue hireTr. In addition. the councils Facilities Management team undertake regular preventative maintenance and surveys. This ovedl approach of Maintaining and investing reduces the risk of significant buildinWfacility failures that could lead to larger and unplanned for repairs andlor replacement costs. 8.7. Reputational and Safety Risk&. As outlined above, income frorn tenancies and hires is utilised to undertake repairs and maintenance of the Charity's assets. This approach enables the Charkty to 14
ensure Health and Safety leIall0n is complied wlth and that the buildings remain in a good state of repair. As the venues are hired out regularly, it is important both operationally and reputstionally that the buildings are well Enaintained. The Parks ngeMent team implements safe practices for the park8 and amerrities including regular patrols by Park Rangers with any issues recorded and reported to nianagement. There are operational procedures for the Tegular inspection and maintenance of play and equipment by trained park staff and independent play inspectors. These operating procedures have been developed in line with the relevant guidance and reviewed by the coullcÈl's CA)Tporate Health and Safety team. AdditionaI monitoring and maintenance of the Charity's park lands is undertaken by the Council's Green Team who eL8ure that the land is well maintained. The combination of regular Park patrols and Green Team maintenance helps to ensure that the Charity's land is well Tnaintained and a safe environment for people to visit. 9.1.

Our responsibditie5 under those standards are fvrther described in the Audilorfs responsibilities for the audit of the fmancial slatements se¢t40n of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance wth the eihical requirements that are le¥onl to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC'S Ethical Staridaid, and we have fvffilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe thal the aLKIit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to prowde a basis for our onion. Concluslons r•latlng to going concern In auditing the finan¢ial statements. have concluded that Ihe trustees. use of the goin9 con¢em basis of accounting in the preparakn.on of the finanrAal statements is appropriate. Based on the work we have performed. we have not identified any material uncertainties relating lo events or conditions thaL indiwdually or colle¢tivèty. may cast significant doubt on the ¢harity'$ ability lo continue as a going concern for a period of at ast months from wknen the financial ststements a authodsed for issue. Our responsibilities and the responsiknlities of the tnjstees wilh Tespectto gcing ¢on¢ern a described in the relevant sections of this report. Other InfornialSon The other inlomialion comprises the inlormalion indLKled in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditorfs report thereon. The trustees are reyjnsible for the othef fOrMaton contained ithin the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does nol ¢over the olhei infomation and we do not expross any lomi of assuranee concluston thereon. Our responsibilrty is to read the (rther infomialion and, in dting $0. consider vther the other infomi*ion is materially in¢onsistenl with the financial stslements or our krvledge obtained in the Course of the audiL or othernyise appears to be materially misstated. Ifwe identsfy such matersal inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are Tequired to detemine vthether this gives rise to a malerial misstatement in the financial statemen1$ themselves. If, based on Ihe work we have perfomed, ¥ condude that there is a material mlsstatement of this other inlomation, we are required to report that fart We have nothing to report in this regard. Matters on which we are requir to report by ?x¢eptlon We have nothing to report in respect ofthè fdlowng matters in relation towhth the Charityes (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us lo reportto you rf. in ouropinion.. the infom)ation given in the financial ststements is inCc$tent1n any material re5pectwth the tru$fro$' feport: or sufficient a¢ntIng records have not been kept: or 19

Responslbilities of trustses As explained miye fully in the Slatement of Trustees. Responsibilities, the trustees are sponSIble for the preparation of the accounts and for being satisfied that they give a Irue and fair view. and for such intemal Control as the dire¢tors detemine is necessary to enabte the preparation of xcounts that are free from material misstslement, wtheth2r due to fraud or error. In preparing the accounls. the trustee5 are responsible for assessing the ¢harity's abilrty to conts.nue as a goin9 concem. disclosing, as op1¢able. rnatters related to going ¢oncem and using the going concem basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. AUdit0S responslbllitie$ for the audit of the financlal statem•nts We have been appointed as auditor under section 145 of the Charities Acl 2011 and report In accordan th the Act and relevanl regulations made or having effect thereunder. Chjr obseclives are to obtaift feasonable assurnnce about wthether the ffinancial stslements 8$ 8 vthole are free from material misstatement. whether due to fraud or error. and to issue an auditor's pOrt that irscludes ouropinion. ReasOnae assurance is a high level of assuran bul is not a guarantee that an audttconducted in accordance with ISA$ (UK) will always delect a material rnisstatemenl vthen il exists. Misststements can arise from fraud OT eThor and are ¢onsidered material if. individually or in the aggregate. they could Teasonably be expected to influence the e¢onomic deusN)n5 of users taken on the ba$ of these financkql stslements. Irregularities. irKbJding fraud, are insta$ of norKompli?nce kws and feguEations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilitres, ovuined above. to detect matertal misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraLKI. The extent lo 1¢h our pioeedures are capable of detecty.ng irregularities. including fraud. is detailed below. Dotsction of fraud and bfeach8s of regulatio To identify risks ofmalerial misstatement ¢Jue to fraud. we considered events or conditions that could indicate an incentive or pressure to MMIt fraud or provide an Opplty io do so. Our approach induded.. using analyb'cal procedures to Ident unusual relalionships" ading minute$ of trustee meetings- discsJssin9 charity poh'fyes procedures on fraud detection and prevention wth trustees. and enquiring about any knowledge of actual. alFeged or $uspe¢led fraud. We communicated idtnbfied fraud risks throughout our team and rna1ned alert to any indications of fraud throughout the audil. To identify risks of Materi mÈs$tstement due to rKxFcompliance thryth layts 8T regulatTrons. our approach vras a$ follows.. We identified areas of laws and regulations that could reasoTrabty be expected lo have a material effect on the financial statements from our general charity experience. ond through discussion with the trustees and other management (as required by auditing standards). and discussed wsih the trustee5 and other management the pdicies and procedures regarding mpliance wlh laws and re9uEations', We consjdered the legal and regulaw frame*Drks di¢t aPIcable to the ffinanaal statements reporting framework IFRS 102 and the Charilies Act 20111 and the Televanl tax compliance regulation5', We wnsidered Ihe nalU ofthe industy, the control enwronment and charity s performance. 20
procedures included: testing manual iown8ls.' wwng the finan(ial statement disdosures and testing lo supporting documentation.. performing allalytil procedures," and enquiries of management, and wer8 designed to Pfovide reasonable assurnnce that the finanry81 slalements were free from fraud or error. (ing to the Inhnt limitations of an audit. there is an unavoidable risk th8t we may not have deteded some material misslalements in the financial statements. even though we have properfy planned and performed our audit in accordance with aUd'ng standards_ For example. the ftsrther removed norF Compliance with laws and regulations is from Ihe evenis and transaction5 reflecled in the financial statements, the less likely the inherently limited prOUTeS required by auditing standards would identify IL The risk is also greater regarding non-delection of fraud rather than error, as fraud may involve intentional concealment, fofgery. collusion, omission or misrepresentats"on. Our audit procedures are designed to delect material rnisstslemenl. We are not responsible for prevenling nork-compliance arml canTr)I be eXted lo detect non<ompliance with all laws and reguLab"ons.

The Cknity's financial p)siuon at the end of 2021122 show5 a decrease in net assets of £86,773 to £15.954.314 (2020r21: £16.041,087) driven largdy by a reduction within our endowment funds of £67.4 and decreases in wlrestticted fill5 of £19.373. 7.5. The Chariry's endonent totall1 £]5,896,4 (2020121: £15.963.800), include tangible and investment fixed &&sets. Tangible fixed assets totalling £9.714,653 (2020121: £9.735.378). support the public access to gcM)d quality sports and leisure faciliues. including Mile End and Stepney Green Park as well as the pavilions and football pitches on park lands. Investment assets totalling £6,273,900 (2020121.. £6,319,700), are held to generate rental income to further support the charitable objects of the Cljarity. 7.6. The Chariry's unresttic*d fun& totalling a sutplus of £57.914 (2020121: £77287 surplu5) comprises the cumulative surplusldeficits at the year-end. All rental income arising from investment assets beld in the endowment fimd is credited dÉrecdy to thi8 fun& The unrestiicted fund is available to use in carrying out the charitable objects of the Charity. 7.7. The Charity currently does not have a policy on level of reserves since the sole Trustee is the Inndon Borough of Tower Hamlets. which meets in full the Charity's net expenditure. so the Charitys funding is secured. The Tnt Charity Board therefore has not ser up any financial reserves to protect against any unforeseen fluctuauons in income or expenditure. 12
The key risks to the Charity include financial. reputational and public safety risks. 8.1. Incoll generatio e Park management team. on behalf of the Charity. acts to create a sustainable income stream to suppon the maintenance of the park and its in£rastriictuze. The Green Bridge rentalunits PrOde a significantcontribullon to the Chariry's Iorne stream. In relation to this property rental income stream we have identified the following Non payn]ent of rent/arreaTS . Tenants vacatinwserving Notice Breaches of leases To mitigate against the above zisk8 a competent lettings agent. appointed by the Counckl. manages the tenancy arrangements for the Green Bridge rental unÉts to ensure best value and good DhageMent of tenants. 8.2. Rental aTreazs: The lettings agent takes a proactive approach to MOtOrIg Tental income and take early inteentiOn if there are any i&gues identified with a tenant. If required. the council can undertake debt recovery action ensuring rent is received and arrears Historically the rentsl units have been fiY occupied with a low nThover of tenants. Some of the units have been occupied by the same tenants for over ten years and a]ng the pandemic only one tenant Ceased to trade. and they easily assigned theirlease, showing the resilien of the location. The location is attractive to a wide range of businesses due to its proximiry to Mile End tube station. a nearby universiry and residential areas that provide a high level of footfall. With a large number 0£ the tenants benefitting from Security of Tenure under the landlord and Tenant Act 1954, they would have to serve notice on the landlord to leave. As a result, there will be at least a 3-month notice perioj. which will assist 13
in the marketing of the unit and would hOPellY mitigate the risk of a void period and loss of income. In the event of a unit being vacant for a period of time the Charity could utilise the council's Meanwhile Use progrnmThe to temporarily occupy a vacant urrit th a 'pop-up' shop. thereby maintaining the vitality of the location. It also l)as the impact of maintaining (Kcupation. and therefore mitigates void costs. as well as the risk of Squatters. 8.4. Breaches of lease5: t£ases are monitored by the letEing agent and the Park management team with support from the council's enfoT¢ement and legal teams if required. This approach enables any breaches or compliancy tssues to be resolved as quickly as possible. 8.5. In addition to rental income, the Charity also relies on income generated through the venue hire of the Arts and Ecology Pavilions. The Park management team promotes and manages bookings for the pavilions. which are now well-established venues foi weddings. private. commercial and corporate events that generaEe income. tmprovements include setting up an Instagram account, which h&8 helped to increase the number of enquiries and booknngs. Although there are peak periods for hirers (SPliDg to autunin). the Park management team continue to diversity the range of dients and adapt to changing markei c0nsidetatios. The Park management team opeTates a compreheLsive inspection and repair regime for the Chariry's la1 and facilities. In addition. the Chariry reinvests some of the income generated through bires to upgrade facilities and equipment to ensure its open spaces and buildings are safe 8lld welcotning places for the public and comroercial nants and venue hireTr. In addition. the councils Facilities Management team undertake regular preventative maintenance and surveys. This ovedl approach of Maintaining and investing reduces the risk of significant buildinWfacility failures that could lead to larger and unplanned for repairs andlor replacement costs. 8.7. Reputational and Safety Risk&. As outlined above, income frorn tenancies and hires is utilised to undertake repairs and maintenance of the Charity's assets. This approach enables the Charkty to 14
ensure Health and Safety leIall0n is complied wlth and that the buildings remain in a good state of repair. As the venues are hired out regularly, it is important both operationally and reputstionally that the buildings are well Enaintained. The Parks ngeMent team implements safe practices for the park8 and amerrities including regular patrols by Park Rangers with any issues recorded and reported to nianagement. There are operational procedures for the Tegular inspection and maintenance of play and equipment by trained park staff and independent play inspectors. These operating procedures have been developed in line with the relevant guidance and reviewed by the coullcÈl's CA)Tporate Health and Safety team. AdditionaI monitoring and maintenance of the Charity's park lands is undertaken by the Council's Green Team who eL8ure that the land is well maintained. The combination of regular Park patrols and Green Team maintenance helps to ensure that the Charity's land is well Tnaintained and a safe environment for people to visit. 9.1.
