Treasurer’s Report October 2022 to September 2023
A full financial report for the financial year October 2022 to September 2023 will be available to everyone by looking on the charity commission website from 30th July.
Our total income for the year amounted to £ 40,408.48, our total expenditure amounted to £ 40,418.06.
We want to say a big thank you to all our members who continue to support us through, what for everyone, are challenging times.
Our charity is totally reliant on grants, donations, sponsorship and the goodwill of all who support us financially. This enables us to continue to provide activities, vital for our members, and cover our running costs. Our thanks go to all for continuing to support us.
The Three Guineas Trust again awarded us funding to provide a variety of days out and holiday activities for members.
During this financial year we received donations from The Peace and Unity Lodge, Kirkham Prison, Beaverbrooks, Great Marton Lodge, The Houndshill Shopping Centre and The Dreamteam Singers. In addition we also received funds via Just Giving from fundraising, and other funds via CAF, Amazon Core, Local Giving ,other general donations and our charity collection boxes.
Looking ahead, Tiggers, relying solely on grants, fundraising and donations, requires as much financial support as possible from all sources. This will enable us to continue to provide the much needed activities that are so vital to our members. If anyone knows of any sources of funding and grants and can help with writing applications, please contact one of our committee members.
Our appreciation and thanks go to all who have financially supported Tiggers, without which Tiggers would not be able to continue.
Chair Report, year ending September 2023
Tiggers, in 2023, is in its 18th year of operation.
The year saw changes and new challenges. In December 2022, our IT Advisor Sam Pinder died, unexpectedly, at the age of 33, and his post remains unfilled. In many ways, Sam is irreplaceable, a much loved Son and Committee Member. We would welcome anyone with IT experience to continue his work.
Donna gained her Level 2 British Gymnastics Trampoline coaching qualification in January 2023, which enabled our retiring coaches Dave and Jackie to finally step back from July. Without these two superheroes, Tiggers would not be running today. We are incredibly lucky to have had them both with us for so many years, driving ridiculous distances to come here to Blackpool to run our sessions. Other coaches are continuing their work, booking and running the trampolining sessions, Donna and Kirsty are supported by Suzanne and Yvonne, plus many excellent and indispensable spotters and assistants.
We also put in many hours to organise our popular holiday scheme, funded by The Three Guineas Trust, as it has been for many years.

We were also taken on as the Hounds Hill Shopping Centre Charity of the Year in 2023, and their donation will be included in next year’s accounts. Support has also been given by The Sandcastle Water Park, The Peace and Unity Masonic Lodge, Kirkham Prison and The Dream Team Singers, of whom Sam Pinder was a member. They, along with a Go Fund Me page, raised money in his memory.
Special thanks also go to Lee, our Mr. Fixit, no job too small and thank you for joining us. Also to Hilary, our Treasurer, for many years’ service.
Blackpool Tiggers provides our members with the opportunity to gain British Gymnastics Trampolining Awards. We are a truly inclusive, unique club, a community and family. In order to continue, we need volunteers, coaches and parents to continue our much needed service. Please contact us if you have any ideas for funding streams or ideas that could contribute to the essential work we do. We are,
after all, a parent led charity and we need you if we are to continue.
Suzanne Pinder, Chair.
