## **TIGERS TRUST** 

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF TIGERS TRUST** 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Tigers Trust (the charity) for the year ended 30 November 2023. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the trustees of the charity (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (the 2006 Act). 

Having satisfied myself that the financial statements of the charity 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 the charity’s financial statements carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act). In carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

Since the charity’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of Independent Examiner, which is one of the listed bodies. 

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 that in any material respect: 

- 1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

- 2 the financial statements do not accord with those records; or 

- 3 the financial statements 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 financial statements 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 (FRS 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 financial statements to be reached.

**NOTES TO THE  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 NOVEMBER 2023**_ 

## **TIGERS TRUST** 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **Charity information** 

Tigers Trust is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is The Jungle, Wheldon Road, Castleford, WF10 2SD. 

## **1.1 Accounting convention** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's governing document,  the Companies Act 2006 and "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)". The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102. 

The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows. 

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £. 

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. 

## **1.2 Going concern** 

The balance sheet as at 30 November 2023 shows that the charity has net current liabilities of £145,468 and net liabilities of £139,147, which includes amounts due to Castleford Rugby League Football Club Limited which amounted to £155,597. 

The Directors of Castleford Rugby League Football Club Limited have confirmed that they will continue to support the charity and will not withdraw their support to the detriment of the third party creditors. 

On this basis, the Trustees concluded it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis. 

## **1.3 Charitable funds** 

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives. 

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements. 

## **1.4 Income** 

All income is included in the statement of financial activities when entitlement has passed to the charity, it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income: 

Income from donations or grants is recognised when there is evidence of entitlement to the gift, receipt is probable and its amount can be measured reliably. 

Income from contracts for the supply of services is recognised with the delivery of the contracted service. This is classified as unrestricted funds unless there is a contractual requirement for it to be spent on a particular purpose and returned if unspent, in which case it may be regarded as restricted.

## **TIGERS TRUST** 

## **NOTES TO THE  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 NOVEMBER 2023**_ 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

**(Continued)** 

## **1.5 Expenditure** 

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. 

Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. 

Resources expended are included in the Statement of Financial Activities on an accruals basis. Certain expenditure is directly attributable to specific activities and has been included in those cost categories. Certain other costs, which are attributable to more than one activity, are apportioned across cost categories on the basis of an estimate of the proportion of income and direct costs incurred on those activities. 

## **1.6 Tangible fixed assets** 

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses. 

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases: 

Computers 25% reducing balance 

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities. 

## **1.7 Impairment of fixed assets** 

At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). 

## **1.8 Cash and cash equivalents** 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities. 

## **1.9 Financial instruments** 

A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. 

Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the amount receivable or payable including any related transaction costs, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where it is recognised at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. 

Current assets and current liabilities are subsequently measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received and not discounted. 

Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost.

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **(Continued)** 

## **1.10 Employee benefits** 

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received. 

## **1.11 Retirement benefits** 

Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due. 

## **1.12 Creditors and provisions** 

Creditors are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. 

## **2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements** 

In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. 

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.

**(Continued)** 

## **Men's Weight Management - Back Onside** 

A programme to aid weight management, improve physical activity levels and instil healthy eating habits in men of all ages. Delivered in partnership with Wakefield MDC and the RFL, this programme has seen strong success, with demonstrable changes in lifestyles, activity, nutrition and mental wellbeing for all the participants. 

## **Sport for Change** 

Funded by Sport Relief, 'Sport for Change' aims to improve engagement in sport as well as an increased awareness of current lifestyle issues prevalent amongst young women in the area. The project will use a range of sport delivery sessions and interactive workshops to cover topics such as drug awareness, sexual health, teenage pregnancy and community cohesion. Coordinated with Wakefield Council, Leeds City Council, West Yorkshire Police and Youth Services, the sessions aim to increase an understanding of lifestyle issues young girls may face to ensure they can make informed choices for the future. The programme has been devised by the Tigers Trust and will be delivered, predominantly during term time as well as via after school sessions, by its community staff. Using the rugby league club's high-profile brand and community standing it hopes to reach a demographic that is often regarded as hard to reach. 

## **Go Higher** 

Working closely with Airedale Academy the Go Higher project focuses on young people aged 16-18, primarily from Ferry Fryston and Airedale, to raise levels of aspiration amongst young people and their families. 

Using bespoke workshops alongside practical delivery, the project also facilitates the understanding of the relevance and benefits of educational attainment and that achievable goals can be set and met.In one of the most deprived (by all measures of health, economic and social indices) areas of the district will challenge misconceptions and support opportunities to develop skills and resilience to transition to higher education. 

## **Sky Try** 

Sky Try, funded by the RFL and Sport England, continued to enhance its impact within Primary and Secondary schools across the Wakefield and surrounding districts. Focusing on multi-sport and rugby league activity for boys and girls, the programme reached thousands of new young people supporting their physical literacy, large motor skill development as well as access to the Community Club game. 

## **WMDC Active and Inspired** 

Active and Inspired aims to improve the health, wellbeing and access to sport in Airedale, Fryston and Whitwood wards of Wakefield. The programme targets some of the most disadvantaged areas in the county. Our targeted intervention reaches out to those people who typically have limited access to sporting facilities, expertise and wellbeing support.

## **The Changing Room** 

In partnership with the West Yorkshire Violence Reduction Unit, 'The Changing Room' project aims to intervene with young people most at risk of violence (committing and receiving) in the District through specialist intervention sessions and educational support. 

## **Return to Play**
