Trustees
Structure, Governance and Management
The Board of Trustees, which also serves as the charity’s management committee, is responsible for the overall governance and strategic direction of the charity. The trustees are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law. Trustees are appointed either through election on the recommendation of existing trustees or by co-option. The charity’s governing document requires a minimum of three trustees, with no maximum specified.
In accordance with the rotation provisions, one third of the trustees retire at each Annual Meeting, together with any trustees appointed during the year. All retiring trustees are eligible for re-appointment. At this year’s Annual Meeting,
no trustees are due to retire or seek re-election .
A strong and effective working partnership exists between the Board of Trustees, the management team, Mansfield Town Football Club and the EFL Trust. This collaborative approach continues to be a key factor in the charity’s development and success. To support effective governance, each trustee holds a portfolio of interest areas within MTFitC, giving them responsibility and oversight for specific aspects of the charity’s work.
The Board meets at least four times a year, including an Annual Meeting at which trustees review overall strategy, approve operating plans and budgets, and assess the charity’s operational and financial performance. All newly appointed trustees receive an induction pack containing essential information on the charity’s structure, legal responsibilities and operational activities, enabling them to make informed and effective decisions. Trustee training is
2
provided at least annually and includes strategic review sessions, with additional training arranged as required.
The Board delegates certain powers relating to the day-to-day management and administration of the charity to the Company Secretary and the Management Team. These delegated responsibilities are exercised within clearly defined limits and are subject to regular reporting to the Board, ensuring that all significant decisions are reviewed and ratified by the trustees

Report of the Trustees
For the year ended 31 August 2025
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT (continued)
Achievements and Performance
Following the Covid-19 pandemic, MTFC Football in the Community rebranded to Mansfield Town Community Trust to reflect the broader and more diverse range of programmes, activities and community services now delivered. The period after the pandemic brought significant organisational change, including transitions within the trustee board, senior leadership and staff team.
In response to these challenges, the remaining trustees and staff undertook a comprehensive review of the Trust’s governance, structure and operational model. This review ensured that the charity remained fit for purpose and aligned with the expectations of the EFL, EFL Trust, Premier League Charitable Fund and other key stakeholders, including trustees, staff and service users.
Over the past 18 months, the Trust has successfully implemented the outcomes of this review. This has included the appointment of new trustees and staff, the strengthening of internal systems, and the expansion of programmes to meet the evolving needs of the community. These developments have significantly improved the organisation’s capacity, resilience and strategic focus.
As part of the next phase of development, the Trust is currently in the process of interviewing and appointing a new Chief Executive Officer, who will lead the organisation forward and support the delivery of its long-term ambitions. This appointment represents an important milestone in strengthening leadership and ensuring the Trust is well positioned for future growth.
Following a successful transition period, the Trust is now actively delivering against its Strategic Growth Plan for 2024–2027, which was implemented after the significant organisational changes brought about by Covid-19. The plan sets out clear priorities for impact, sustainability and community engagement, and the Trust is making strong progress in embedding these objectives across all areas of its work.

Review of the Year
The 2024/25 year has been one of continued growth, consolidation and positive change for Mansfield Town Community Trust. Following our rebrand from MTFC Football in the Community, the Trust is now firmly established as a modern, diverse and community-focused organisation that reflects the changing demographics, social needs and behaviours across the areas we serve. Our work now reaches further than ever before, engaging people of all ages, abilities, backgrounds and circumstances across Mansfield, Ashfield, Gedling, Newark & Sherwood and the wider Nottinghamshire region.
Our strong and collaborative relationship with Mansfield Town Football Club has remained a key asset throughout the year. The club’s success on the pitch has generated increased interest and pride within the town, helping to raise the profile of the Trust and strengthen community engagement across all our programmes.
the creation of our dedicated Mental Health & Wellbeing Department, established with support from the EFL Trust and a range of valued local partners. Has grown significantly, with impactful delivery across a wide range of age groups and needs. Projects such as Lowdham Prison, Active Minds, Enter the Shadows, and the Sherwood Project have demonstrated strong outcomes and continue to evolve in response to participant feedback and community demand. These programmes are supported by a variety of funders, as detailed earlier in the accounts.
Alongside this expansion, we have successfully maintained and grown our existing core programmes, including Premier League Primary Stars, Premier League Kicks, CEFA, children’s parties, Saturday clubs, Over-45s Walking Football, Penalty Shoot-Outs/Social Action initiatives, holiday clubs, trips and matchday activities such as flag-bearing and the mascot programme. Each of these areas has seen increased participation, with additional sessions and adaptations introduced to ensure our offer remains relevant to the changing needs of the communities we serve.
In April 2024, we were delighted to secure funding from BBC Children in Need for a new mentoring programme delivered within local secondary schools. The project has demonstrated excellent outcomes in its first year, and as delivery continues, we are refining and adapting the model to ensure it remains responsive to the needs of each cohort. We continue to work closely with Children in Need, seeking advice and feedback to strengthen the programme further.
Our Education Department has also experienced a period of positive transition and growth. We have supported students into apprenticeships within the Trust, and the new Degree Programme for Year 13 learners has been successfully launched. The four students enrolled are not only enjoying the academic element but are also gaining valuable work experience and life skills. The department continues to deliver strong predicted grades across all year groups. This year, our education cohort travelled to Spain to participate in international fixtures and explore educational opportunities abroad—an experience that proved to be a great success.
Throughout the year, the Board of Trustees has remained focused on ensuring sustainable, well-governed growth. Our aim is to deliver programmes that are fit for purpose, properly funded, and beneficial to staff, participants and the wider community. We continue to balance ambition with caution, recognising the need to adapt to the evolving needs of our staff, the football club, our communities and society as a whole.
The Trust is now entering an exciting new phase. We are currently interviewing and appointing a new Chief Executive Officer who will lead the organisation forward and support the delivery of our long-term ambitions. This appointment marks a significant milestone in strengthening leadership capacity and driving forward our strategic priorities.
A cautionary note is that the current economic climate—combined with increases in the minimum wage, National Insurance contributions, and the closure of several funding programmes—has impacted the Trust. The Board is
4
acutely aware of the financial pressures this creates, both now and in the future. Once the new CEO is appointed, the Board will work closely with them to ensure the sustainability and long-term security of the Trust.
As we move ahead with the implementation of our Strategic Growth Plan, the Trust is well positioned to continue expanding its reach, deepening its impact and responding to the changing landscape in which we operate. The year has demonstrated our resilience, adaptability and commitment to improving lives across our communities. We look forward to building on this progress in 2025/26, although we remain mindful that financial constraints and the availability of charitable funding across the United Kingdom may influence the pace of future growth.
FINANCIAL REVIEW (continued)
The stated activities and projects covered ranges which incorporated education, sports participation, social inclusion and improved health and wellbeing.
Free Reserves
Free reserves available for use by the charity are deemed to be those that are readily realisable, with less funds whose uses are restricted or designated for purposes. The calculation thus excludes fixed assets that will continue to be used in the day-to-day running of the charity.
Risk Management
The Trustees and Management Team have continued throughout the year to review the major risks to which the charity is exposed. Where appropriate, systems and procedures have been strengthened or introduced to mitigate these risks. Internal control risks are minimised through clear procedures for the authorisation and monitoring of all transactions, projects and expenditure.
The Covid-19 pandemic highlighted new and emerging risks for the charity, particularly in relation to financial stability, operational delivery and workforce capacity. In response, the Trust made effective use of available government support, including the Job Retention Scheme, and secured additional grant funding to maintain service delivery. The ability to adapt our methods of engagement and programme delivery—ensuring they continued to meet the needs of funders and participants—remains essential to the charity’s long-term sustainability.
Procedures are firmly in place to ensure compliance with health and safety requirements for staff, volunteers, participants and visitors at all operational sites. These procedures are regularly reviewed to ensure they remain robust, up to date and aligned with statutory regulations. Enhanced safeguarding measures are also maintained, including DBS checks for all staff, trustees and volunteers.
The Trustees remain committed to maintaining a strong risk management framework that supports the charity’s resilience, protects its beneficiaries and ensures the safe and effective delivery of all activities
Reserves Policy
The Trustees review the level of reserves held by the charity on an annual basis. This review considers the value of unrestricted reserves required to be maintained in cash, investments or cash equivalents to ensure the ongoing financial stability of the organisation. In determining the appropriate level of reserves, the Board assesses the charity’s exposure to significant potential losses of income, the likelihood of unforeseen expenditure that cannot be mitigated through management action, and the degree of risk associated with each scenario.
A key financial risk for the charity continues to be the potential reduction in funding for school-based activities and the challenge of maintaining sufficient income from training programmes and school holiday courses. The Trustees remain mindful of the need to protect the charity against fluctuations in these income streams.
Budgetary and financial controls have been strengthened to minimise the risk of overspending and to mitigate the impact of any short-term reduction in income. It is not the charity’s policy to undertake major new initiatives without securing adequate funding and resources in advance. This approach ensures that all activities remain financially sustainable and aligned with the long-term interests of the charity, its beneficiaries and its stakeholders
Plans for Future Periods
5
The Trust has launched its new Strategic Plan, which will guide our development through to 2027. This plan sets out a clear vision for growth, impact and organisational excellence, ensuring that Mansfield Town Community Trust continues to meet the evolving needs of the communities we serve.
A central priority is to become a highly impactful and trusted organisation . Representing the Mansfield Town Football Club brand, we are committed to ensuring that all staff, trustees and volunteers deliver the highest possible standards of experience and opportunity for our communities. Our focus is on strengthening all aspects of the organisation so that our delivery, governance and support structures remain robust, effective and responsive.
We will continue to promote physical and mental wellbeing through our programmes. All our projects are designed to encourage healthier, more active lifestyles and to support improved mental health across all age groups. This remains a core pillar of our work and will continue to shape future programme development.
A further priority is to make a meaningful difference to those in our communities. We aim for every activity, project and programme to have a positive and lasting impact on participants. Our ambition is to reach and support as many people as possible, ensuring that our work remains inclusive, accessible and relevant.
We will also continue to provide unique and inspiring experiences . As an organisation closely linked with Mansfield Town Football Club, we are able to offer distinctive opportunities that cannot be accessed elsewhere. These experiences—whether educational, sporting or community-based—play a vital role in inspiring individuals and strengthening community pride.
The ongoing support and partnership of Mansfield Town Football Club is deeply valued by the Board. We are committed to further strengthening this relationship, ensuring continued collaboration across activities and maintaining a strong, positive presence for the club within the community.
Looking ahead, the Trust will continue to develop in a sustainable and responsible manner, ensuring that all future growth is supported by appropriate funding, strong governance and a clear strategic direction. The implementation of our Strategic Plan will guide this work, helping us to expand our reach, deepen our impact and remain responsive to the changing needs of our communities.
