Our Assets and Growth

The organisation’s assets include an original building purchased in 1995 with community donations, which has since seen over a 250% increase in value. In 2018, the site was further expanded with the acquisition of two additional buildings and a plot of land from the local council, who supported its continued educational use and agreed to sell at a reduced rate. This expansion was made possible by generous contributions and a deferred payment arrangement of £150,000, showcasing the community's enduring support and trust in the organisation's mission.

We make the most of this space by renting it out to local startups, sports clubs, and events, helping to serve the wider community and maximize the building’s impact. These efforts not only sustain our services but also allow us to reinvest in the continued growth and development of our work in the community

In addition to its financial value, our phenomenal building is designed with sustainability in mind. We have implemented environmentally friendly features, such as an automated electricity system that reduces energy consumption and our carbon footprint. These efforts reflect our commitment to both the community and the environment.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE GREAT CLUB CHARITABLE TRUST LIMITED (LIMITED BY GUARANTEE)

I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2024 which are set out on pages 16-19.

RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF TRUSTEES AND EXAMINER

The charity’s trustees (who are also the directors of The Great Club Charitable Trust Limited (Limited by guarantee) for the purposes of company law) 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 Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to an audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:

● To follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145 (5) b of the Charities Act; and

BASIS OF INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those 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 procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an opinion on whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’, and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statements below.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S 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 trustees have not met the requirements to ensure that:

● Accounting records are kept in accordance with Section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and the Charities Act Section 130;

● Accounts are prepared which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities; or

  1. To which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
