Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 August 2025
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in the notes to the accounts and comply with the charity's governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities, preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland published on 16 July 2014.
Governing Document
On 1st March 2021 the Charity converted from a Company Limited by Guarantee to a Charitable Incorporated Organisations (CIO). It is governed by a Constitution.
Objectives
The Charity’s Articles declare the charity’s objects as the education and entertainment of the public in the arts, primarily through the medium of film. Through weekly screenings Sept - April, plus a Film Festival in Feb, and screenings in local village halls.
Trustees
The trustees who acted during the period were as follows:
- Vaughan Ames Ann Martin David William Miller Ian Michael Payne Thomas Wilson Rennie
Management Structure
The Trustees oversee all activities. Regular screenings are agreed by a subcommittee of the membership after input from the ‘Programmer’ (a Trustee). Film Festival is organised by the same sub-committee with input from the ‘Festival Director’ (a Trustee).
Review of the development, activities and achievements of the Company
The Keswick Film Club highlighted its 2024–2025 season with a significant milestone: the celebration of its 25th year of organising the Keswick Film Festival. This achievement reflects the club’s enduring commitment to bringing diverse and high-quality cinema to the local community, while fostering a strong cultural presence in the region.
Despite this success, the club continues to face challenges in rebuilding regular Sunday attendances, which remain lower than pre-Covid levels. Audience numbers are a crucial factor in sustaining the club’s financial health, particularly as the cost of hiring the Alhambra has risen. These pressures highlight the importance of re-engaging members and attracting new audiences to secure the long-term stability of the club.
Julia Vickers has taken over as the Film Festival director after Ian Payne stood down after 10 years in the role. We all owe a lot to him and offer our thanks here. Julia's energy and vision promise to build on the festival’s reputation and ensure its continued success. Meanwhile, the trustees have all agreed to remain in post, providing continuity and stability. Day-to-day operations are effectively managed by a smaller subcommittee, a structure that has proven efficient and supportive of the club’s wider goals.
Financially, the club recorded a noticeable reduction in funds. However, with a bank balance exceeding £20,000, this is not considered a threat to the club’s future. It does, however, serve as a timely reminder of the need to restore Sunday attendances to stem even modest losses. With strong leadership, dedicated trustees, and a loyal membership, Keswick Film Club remains well-positioned to thrive in the years ahead.

Report of the Trustees, contd. for the year ended 31 August 2025
Investment Policy
The Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Charity permit wide powers of investment. The Trustees should invest the money of the charity not immediately required for its purposes, in or upon such investments, securities or properties as may be thought fit.
Risk Assessment
The Trustees regularly review the risks to which the charity is exposed and consider the implications of those risks. There is no risk currently facing the charity which the Trustees consider significant.
Public Benefit Guidance
The Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duties in section 4 of the Charities Act 2006 to have due regard to the guidance published by the Charity Commission, including public benefit guidance.
Trustees Responsibilities in relation to the Financial Statements
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Acccounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the income resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:-
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures being disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
-
prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011. They are responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and, hence, taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Independent Examiners Report for the year ended 31 August 2025
I report on the accounts for the Trust for the year ended 31 August 2025 which are set out on pages 5 - 10.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year, under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act), and that an independent examiners report is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiners report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with these records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The proceedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and, consequently, I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
Independent examiners' statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements to:
-
keep accounting records in accordance with s130 of the 2011 Act; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act
-
have not been met;
or
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
