including preparation of regular financial report5, maintenance of insurance and management reviews.
These systems are reviewed periodically to ensure the needs of the charity are being met. The Charity
comply with the requirement to conduct DBS check5 on trustees and volunteers.

Objectives and activities
The objectives of the Charity are-_
To help and educate young people through their leisure time activitie5,-
To foster p051tive identification with the local community. and
- To encourage co-operation, teamwork and tolerance.
The trustees are satisfied that the objectives and activities of the charity are in accord with the Charity
Commission guidance on public benefit.
Achlevements and performance
There is a surplus in unrestricted funds for the year of £3.86812023-. deficit £13,510) and the level of
free reserves at 30 June 2024 stood at £77,82612023-. £66,003). The Trustees intended to work towards
increasing free reserves through fundraising events in 2024125.
Financial Revlew
The results for the year are set out on page 6.
This season subscriptions were increased by a small amount from £165 for a first childlteam to £166.50
and £105 to £108 for a second team or siblin8s. This was necessary due to the rising costs of pitch hire,
particularly as we needed to hire more pitches at Druid Park to get games played due to the very wet
weather experienced causing our field to be out of action. We were still able to offer help with
subscriptions to those who needed it.
The 51tuation remains the same with our Management System but we are hoping to upgrade to level 2
in the near future. in the hope that this will rectify the problems we have experienced.
From October 2023, The Owl Tree Child ceased to hire our premises. They have moved to more suitable
premises for their needs. They will be sorely missed but as a consequence the electricity bill has come
down significantly.
We received a much appreciated donation from Nestle Ltd for £400 which could be spent on anything
we needed. We also obtained a grant of £19.840.00 from the Football Foundation to be Spent on pitch
maintenance. Thi5 15 much needed as the pitches have been neRlected in recent years by the council.
Investment oli
The trustees have considered the most appropriate policy for investing cash resources and have
decided that term bank deposit accounts meet their requirements of a reasonable rate of return.
without capital risk, and with predictable accessibility to the fund5. The trustee5 review this policy
annuallv.
Reserves
The trustees consider that a sensible level of free reserves that the charity needs to hold (those reserves
not invested in fixed assets or designated for a particular purposel should equate to Six months of
operating expenditure. as is quite normal in other concerns. This policy would therefore indicate a level
of £57,000. Free reserve5 at 30 June 2024 are £81,076.

Plans for future periods
We are still working on our maintenance plan for the building and grounds and are seeking grants for
the refurbishment of the buildinE.
Due to the ever wetter weather affecting our pitches we have been able to start work on them using a
professional company to carry out the maintenance required. This has been possible due to the grant
we received from The Football Foundation. The maintenance will be ongoing during the coming season
and we are now ready to apply for the second stage of funding.
It is still our goal to obtain a 4G pitch with floodlights and we are in talks with the council to obtain the
lease of the land so that this project can go ahead. If this goes ahead it could save us more than
£13,000 currently spent on winter training.
