We continue to offer Day Centre facilities for six days a week for the elderly and less abled. Transport is available for clients living locally at a nominal charge and we work with Communities 1st who provide this. We encourage anyone in the local community to attend the activities we provide i.e Keep Fit and Chair Exercise.

Development Activities and Achievements

Our activities continue to meet the elderly and less abled clients for six days a week. We encourage interaction with quizzes and social dances all also offer Keep Fit, Chair Exercise, Line Dancing , and Bingo. We have been actively promoting the Charity at local events and at local Care Homes. ASDA actively support us with raffle prizes. Volunteers, Staff and Trustees are encouraged to attend training sessions for Emergency First Aid, Safeguarding Adults where appropriate. We have had several agencies including Fire Service, Dementia to talk to staff and clients which has been successful and interesting.

The Trustees would like to thank the Staff for their valued support for clients and team work and the volunteers who give up their time freely to support our charity and without them we would not be able to run as well as we currently do.

We are forever grateful to Welwyn and Hatfield District Council and Herts County Council for their grants each year. Without this support we would not be able to provide the services we do for the days that we are open.

Future Developments

We are always looking for new ideas and next year we will be introducing Chair Yoga. Craft days will be included for next year. Our manager will continue to visit Care Homes to promote our services.

JIMMY MAC'S (ACTIVITY CENTRE FOR THE RETIRED AND DISABLED) REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31st MARCH 2025

Reserves Policy

In accordance with guidelines issued by the Charity Commissioners, the Trustees have adopted a policy regarding reserves which works towards ensuring that:

a) Excluding those funds represented by fixed assets, and designated funds, general reserves to not exceed more than six months anticipated expenditure

b) There are adequate funds to enable the Charity to meet all current and known future liabilities

Risk Review

The Trustees have examined the major strategic, business and operational risks which the Charity faces and confirms that systems have been established to enable regular reports to be produced so that the necessary steps can be taken to lessen these risks.

Statement of Trustees Responsibilities

The Trustees are required to prepare Financial Statements for each financial period which give a true and fair view of the financial activities of the Charity and of its financial position at the end of the period.

In preparing those Financial Statements the Trustees are required to:

Select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently

Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent

State whether the policies adopted are in accordance with the Companies Act 1985 and with applicable accounting standards and statement of recommended practice, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the Financial Statements.

Prepare the Financial Statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in existence.

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which 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 1993. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence take reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

The report was approved by the Trustees on 21st October 2025

JIMMY MAC'S (ACTIVITY CENTRE FOR THE RETIRED AND DISABLED) NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31st MARCH 2025

1 Accounting Policies

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.

Change in basis of accounting or to previous accounts

There has been no change to the accounting policies (valuation rules and method of accounting) since last year and no changes have been made to accounts for previous years.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds These are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objects of the charity. Restricted funds These are available for use subject to restrictions imposed by the donor or through terms of an appeal.

Trade and other debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

Trade and other creditors

Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

Pension costs

The charity operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contributions plan is a pension plan under which the charity pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the charity has no further payment obligations. The contributions are recognised as expenses when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals in the balance sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the charity in independently administered funds
