The report of the trustees for the year ended 31 December 2023

Summary of main activities of the charity in relation to its objects

Provision of courses in dinghy sailing, yacht cruising, windsurfing and powerboat handling following the syllabus set down by the Royal Yachting Association (RYA) and issuing appropriate certificates to successful candidates. Providing taster sessions and recreational activities for schools, youth groups and individuals in watersports.

Achievements and Performance of the Charity

Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year

1. Revenue.

Turnover down compared to 2022. Continued downward pressure on visitors’ disposable income has a direct and negative impact for the centre resulting in fewer casual hires and taster sessions.

Strong winds and resultant big seas saw loss of 18% of operational days in 2023. With around 120 operational days a year this represents a loss of important revenue. We cancelled and refunded more customers booked for kayak tours than we actually ran due to strong winds.

Llain Activity centre bookings down versus 2022. Sailing is an optional extra (and charge) for school groups at Llain.

2. Sales / Marketing.

The website captures the bulk of the centre bookings and affords the admin function more time to focus on the social media promotion.

Our regular Saturday sailing, windsurfing and women only sessions are supported mostly by local residents albeit it is a modest income generator.

New Quay primary school’s new Head teacher is happy to continue with year’s 5 & 6 attending during their summer term.

The centre continues to enjoy great customer feedback with lots of 5 star reviews.

3. Personnel / Training.

Our staffing was consistent with the previous year which is great for their ability to deliver customer sessions and customer satisfaction.

Hannah Schafer was the winner of the RYA Cymru Coach of the year award for her contribution to our Women only sailing sessions.

4. Equipment.

Our sailing dinghy fleet continues to serve us well but we continue to review our needs going forwards in order to maintain a fresh look.

5. Collaborations. We continue to work with various organisations including the Marine

wildlife centre, NQYC, AYC, Cardigan Bay Regatta, RYA Cymru, Llain Activity Centre, Qinetiq, Ceredigion Youth Service, OLW Aberaeron, Working 4 New Quay, Windswept Watersports.

The report of the trustees for the year ended 31 December 2023

Structure, Governance and Management

Nature of the Governing Document and constitution of the charity

The charity is constituted as a company limited by guarantee and is therefore governed by a memorandum and articles of association. The directors of the company are also trustees of the charity. Eligibility for membership of the charity, and membership of the board of trustees is governed by the memorandum and articles of association. There are no restrictions in the governing document on the operation of the charity or on its investment powers, other than those imposed by general charity law.

The methods adopted for the recruitment and appointment of new trustees

The trustees are appointed at the charity's annual general meeting and retire from office at the third AGM following the AGM at which they were elected. Any casual vacancy arising during the year is filled by co-option of a person onto the board; that person is then duly elected at the subsequent AGM.

Financial Review

Policies on reserves

The trustees have resolved to establish reserves to provide for future activities, and to provide funding for the expected expenditure for six months ahead. Reserves at 31 December decreased, the trustees deem the reserve adequate to support the operation during the summer season.

The policy on reserves is that the existing assets are retained to produce income which is wholly utilised to support existing activities. There is no intention in the long term to either increase or reduce the capital significantly. The level at 31 December of £115,354 reflects the value of current assets at this time.

Availability and adequacy of assets of each of the funds

The board of trustees is satisfied that the charity's assets in each fund are available and adequate to fulfil its obligations in respect of each fund.

Statement of Directors' and Trustees' Responsibilities

The Charities Act and the Companies Act require the Board of Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity as at the end of the financial year and of the surplus or deficit of the charity. In preparing those financial statements the Board is required to :-

The Trustees are also responsible for maintaining adequate accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which are sufficient to show and explain the charity's transactions and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006 and comply with regulations made under the Charities Act. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

The trustees are also responsible for the contents of the trustees' report, and the responsibility of the independent examiner in relation to the trustees' report is limited to examining the report and ensuring that , on the face of the report, there are no inconsistencies with the figures disclosed in the financial statements.

Method of preparation of accounts

These accounts have been prepared in accordance with the provisions applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime.

This report was approved by the board of trustees on 28 August 2024.

Cardigan Bay Watersports Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of the charity

Report of the Independent Examiner to the trustees

on the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 December 2023

I report on the financial statements of the Charity on pages 9 to 19 for the year ended 31 December 2022 which have been prepared in accordance with the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) and with the Financial Reporting Standard for Smaller Entities (FRSSE), effective April 2008, as modified by the Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting issued by the Charity Commissioners for England & Wales, effective April 2005 as modified in June 2008. (The SORP), under the historical cost convention and the accounting policies set out on page 14.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

As described on page 6, the Charity's trustees, who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law, are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements.

The trustees are satisfied that the audit requirement of Section 144(1) of the Act does not apply and that the accounts do not require an audit in accordance with Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and that no member or members have requested an audit pursuant to section 476 of the Companies Act 2006, and that there is no requirement in the governing document or constitution of the Charity for the conducting of an audit. As a consequence, the trustees have elected that the financial statements be subject to independent examination.

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

a) examine the accounts under section 145 of the Act;

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

c) to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of opinion and scope of work undertaken

I conducted my examination in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners for England & Wales setting out the duties of an independent examiner issued by the Charity Commissioners under section 145(5)(b) of the Act) in relation to the conducting of an independent examination, referred to above. An independent examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Charity and of the accounting systems employed by the Charity and a comparison of the financial statements presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning such matters. The purpose of the examination is to establish as far as possible that there have been no breaches of the Charities legislation and that the financial statements comply with the SORP, on a test basis, of evidence relevant to the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.

The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit , and information supplied by the trustees in the course of the examination is not subjected to audit tests or enquiries, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the financial statements, and in particular, I express no opinion as to whether the financial statements give a true and fair view of the affairs of the charity, and my report is limited to the matters set out in the statement below.

I planned and performed my examination so as to satisfy myself that the objectives of the independent examination are achieved and before finalising the report I obtain written assurances from the trustees of all material matters.

13

Cardigan Bay Watersports Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 December 2023

1 Accounting policies

Basis of preparation of the accounts

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with all applicable accounting standards, as modified by the Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting issued by the Charity Commissioners for England & Wales, effective April 2005 (revised June 2008) (The SORP). The accounts have been drawn up in accordance with the provisions of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the Companies Acts, and include the results of the charity's operations which are described in the Trustees' Report, all of which are continuing.

Advantage has been taken of Section 396(5) of The Companies Act 2006 to allow the format of the financial statements to be adapted to reflect the special nature of the company's operation and in order to comply with the requirements of the SORP.

The company has taken advantage of the exemption in Financial Reporting Standard No 1 from the requirement to produce a cash flow statement.

The particular accounting policies adopted are set out below.

Accounting convention

The financial statements are prepared,on a going concern basis, under the historical cost convention

Incoming Resources

Incoming resources are accounted for on a receivable basis.

Investment Income

Bank Interest received is included on an actual receipts basis.

Deferred income

In accordance with the SORP grants received in advance and specified by the donor as relating to specific accounting periods or alternatively which are subject to conditions which are still to be met, and which are outside the control of the charity or where it is uncertain whether the conditions can or will be met, are deferred on an accruals basis to the period to which they relate. Such deferrals are shown in the notes to the accounts and the sums involved are shown as creditors in the accounts.

Recognition of liabilities

Liabilities are recognised on the accruals basis in accordance with normal accounting principles, modified where necessary in accordance with the guidance given in the SORP.

Resources Expended

The policy for including items within the relevant activity categories of resources expended is set out below.

In particular the policy for including items within costs of generating funds, charitable activities and governance costs is:

14

Cardigan Bay Watersports Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 December 2023

Costs of generating funds

There are no costs that are attributable to the generating of funds.

Charitable activities

Charitable expenditure shall include all expenditure directly related to the objects of the charity.

Governance costs

Governance costs shall include all expenditure directly related to the administration of the charity including expenditure incurred in the management of the charity's assets, organisational administration and compliance with charitable and statutory requirements.

Allocation of costs within types of resources expended

The methods and principles for the allocation and apportionment of all costs between the different activity categories of resources set out above are based on the test of whether a cost directly contributes to the particular related source of income.Such identifiable costs are apportioned to the specific activity, whereas all other costs are allocated to support costs of charitable activities.

Resources expended include attributable VAT if such VAT cannot be recovered

Fixed assets and depreciation

All tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation.

Depreciation has been provided at the following rates in order to write off the assets (less their estimated residual value ) over their estimated useful economic lives.

Leasehold land and buildings 4.76% straight line, over remaining term of lease Equipment 6.67% to 33% straight line Boats 6.67% to 20% straight line

Capital grants

The board of trustees consider that , in order to comply with the Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting issued by the Charity Commissioners for England & Wales (revised June 2008), gifts of tangible fixed assets or grants of a capital nature given for specific purposes and fully utilised in the furtherance of the objects of the charity should be credited to the relevant fixed asset fund after the sums have been properly expended on the restricted purpose. The related asset is shown in the balance sheet at the full cost of acquisition or subsequent revaluation.

If the related assets are subject to restrictions by the grant making organisation on their use and disposal, then these restrictions are noted in the fixed asset section of these accounts. In such circumstances, the fixed asset fund created is treated as a restricted fixed asset fund. As the related assets are depreciated, then a transfer is made from restricted fixed asset funds to unrestricted revenue reserves to reflect the dimunition in the asset subject to the restriction.In this year (and in the previous year), there were no transfers from restricted fixed asset funds to unrestricted revenue reserves.

If the related assets are not subject to restrictions by the grant making organisation on their use and disposal, then the fixed asset fund created is treated as a designated fixed asset fund. As the related assets are depreciated, then a transfer is made from designated fixed asset funds to unrestricted revenue reserves to reflect the dimunition in the asset.

15

Cardigan Bay Watersports Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 December 2023

Any residual liability to the donor arising from, for example, the asset’s future sale, is disclosed as a contingent liability unless the event that would trigger repayment of the grant becomes probable in which case a liability for repayment is recognised

Insofar as this policy relates to Government grants and to the extent that it may be a departure from the Statement of Standard Accounting Practice Number 4, such departure is justified on the basis that it is in order to comply with the Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting (revised June 2008) issued by the Charity Commissioners for England & Wales.

Taxation

As a registered charity, the company is exempt from income and corporation tax to the extent that its income and gains are applicable to charitable purposes only. Value Added Tax is recoverable by the company , and is therefore not included in the relevant costs in the Statement of Financial Activities.

Funds structure policy

The charity maintains a general unrestricted fund which represents funds which are expendable at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the objects of the charity. Such funds may be held in order to finance both working capital and capital investment.

Restricted funds have been provided to the charity for particular purposes, and it is the policy of the board of trustees to monitor carefully the application of those funds in accordance with the restrictions placed upon them.

2 Winding up or dissolution of the charity

If upon winding up or dissolution of the charity there remain any assets, after the satisfaction of all debts and liabilities, the assets represented by the accumulated fund shall be transferred to some other charitable body or bodies having similar objects to the charity.
