BURY SHOPMOBILITY
TRUSTEES REPORT
The trustees, who are directors for the purposes of company law, present the annual report
together with the financial statements and auditors, report of the charitable company for the year
ended 31 March 2024.
Chairman's Report
The year saw a Strong performance in m05t areas. Although booking5 and memberships were slightly
down on expectations a sterling fundraisirsg effort more than compensated for it. 2 grants were
secured totalling £4,600. These funded a replacement front fence and a ccrv system which was
deemed necessary following a burglary. Tombolas and revenue from surplus equipment were
buoyant. The fundraising team deserve praise fortheir efforts.
Higher HSBC deposit rates became available and these resulted in a higher income stream.
Total income was £8,727 higher than budget, a remarkable result.
General overheads were £722 below budget, there was an unused lease cost provision of £1,000.
The overspend in building repairs was due to the Cm and fence replacement.
The loss for the year was £5,121 Ibudget loss £9,970). This was an improvement on the prior year
loss of £8,497.
Staff report
A faithful band of 7 volunteers, 2 staff and 7 trustees oversaw the operation. They turn up in all
weathers and are key to our survival.
As usual I must thank all our staff, volunteers and many supporters for supporting Bury
Shopmobility.
PlansfvrAuture periods
A loss making budget for 2024/25 of £5,800 was approved at Board level.
Achieving this result will protett our cash reserves and prolong our existence for a substantial period

they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming
resource5 and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, of the charitable
company forthat period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
select Suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;

ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible

Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity's trustees of the Company {and also its directors for the purposes of company lawl
you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the
Companies Act 20061'the 2006 Act'l.
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part
16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my
examination of your charitVs accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011
{'the 2011 Act'}. In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity
Commission under section 145{5){b) of the 2011 Act.
An independent examination does not involve gathering all the evidence that would be required in
an audit and consequently does not cover all the matters that an auditor considers in giving their
opinion on the accounts. The planning and conduct of an audit goes beyond the limited 35surance
that an independent examination can provide. Consequently l express no opinion as to whether the
accounts present a 'true and fairf view and my report is limited to those specific matters set out in
the independent examinerfs statement.
Independent examinerfs statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in
connection with the examination giving me cause to believe".
l. accounting records were not kept in respect of Bury Shopmobility as required by section 386 of
the 2006 Act. or
2. the account5 do not accord with those records; or
3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act
other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair view, which is not a matter
considered as part of an independent examination," or
4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the
Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities [applicable to
charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard
applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland IFRS 102)].
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to
which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the
accounts to be reached.
