TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT Continued
Ensuring our work delivers our aims
We review our aims, objectives and activities each year. This review looks at what we achieved and the outcomes of our work in the previous 12 months. The review looks at the successes of each key activity and the benefits they have brought to those groups of people we are set up to help. The review also helps us ensure our aim, objectives and activities have remained focused on our stated purpose.
The trustees have regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit and discuss this at our trustee’s meetings where we plan and make decisions for the carrying out of our activities to which the guidance is relevant, and ensure we are reviewing our aims and objectives and in planning our future activities.
The focus of our work
Our main objective for this year
In 2024 - 25 Higginshaw ARLFC had a reasonably good season finishing 5[th] in Division 3, we have continued to develop youth teams with new teams, with a Tots Youth Academy team and a new team at Under 8’s and further develop of Under 13’s girls and boys teams for 2026.
In 2021 we finally completed the £121,000 refurbishment of our rugby pitch which we have been working with Sport England to get it completed after 5 years of delays due to further funding and legal delays, the project was funded by Sport England and by Higginshaw ARLFC.
This is an exciting development which gives us one of the best pitches in the area, supported by Pitch Power Funding to support maintenance costs, and is used by the local community, we have recently let other local clubs and community groups use our pitch for training, recently entered into an agreement for local club St Anne’s to rent out the pitch for U12s games on a Sunday morning.
Plans for Future Periods
Plans are in place to convert “Higginshaw Community Project Limited” from a charitable company to a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) and a resolution was passed by the board of trustees on the 5[th] of June 2025.
The board expect to complete the conversion in the coming year, for the year ending 30[th] June 2026.
Higginshaw ARLFC had a successful season in 2025 we finished 5[th] in league, we have continued to develop youth teams with new teams, with a Tots Youth Academy which has develop players into a new Under 7s team for 2025 who have progressed to U8’s for 2026. We are looking to rebuild team U13s for new season as we lost 2 coaches and several players to local teams, and a new U7s team for 2026 season is building nicely.
We continue to utilise our indoor facility with a group who delivers one to one Football training has continued to use the facility for up to 6 hours a week and also, we Premier Diamonds and New Generation Dance troupes who have started to use the facility weekly, together with a new Higginshaw Dance troupe called Higginshaw Royales who train at our facility 5 hours a week. In 2025 we have the Squared Circle Wrestling Events which are held once a month utilising the Community Hall with good crowds supporting the events which also brings custom into the bar area.
Higginshaw ARLFC are still looking to develop the area above the dressing rooms into an area for community use as meeting rooms and classrooms for educational use, we are having some outline drawings being created to support our search for funding, to enable this development.

HIGGINSHAW COMMUNITY PROJECT LIMITED
TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT Continued
Higginshaw Community Project have recently won a funding bid to develop the area around our main pitch providing 350 metres of public pathways, seating and waste bins for the public and dog walkers, with over 1000 trees & shrubs being planted, which is well under way with trees going to be planted in spring 2025. This project has been well received by residents and local walkers.
Financial Review
Reserves Policy
The trustees adopt a strict reserves policy whereby any funding received is specifically ring fenced for charitable activities. The last two years have seen the majority of income being unrestricted however this is due to the nature of the monies received. It is expected that going forward, with the implantation of the new financial structure that fund accounting may be necessary.
Directors Responsibilities in relation to the Financial Statements
The Board have adopted the Charities SORP (FRS 102) ‘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 January 2019]’, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011 in preparing the annual report and financial statements of the charity. The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 2006.
A resolution to convert “Higginshaw Community Project Limited” from a charitable company to a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) was passed by the board of trustees on the 5[th] of June 2025.
The board expect to pass a further resolution on adoption of the Charity Commission’s Foundation Model for a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) in the following financial year (accounting period 1[st] July 2025 to 30[th] June 2026).
As such the financial statements (accounts) for this financial year (year ended 30[th] June 2025) are classed as the “Pre-Conversion” year and were prepared as a charitable company under FRS102 Charity SORP regulations under the Companies Act 2006.
The trustees (who are also directors of Higginshaw Community Project Limited for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and with the provision for small companies.
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources.
In preparing the financial statements, the directors are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.

HIGGINSHAW COMMUNITY PROJECT LIMITED

In so far as the trustees are aware:

HIGGINSHAW COMMUNITY PROJECT LIMITED
REPORT TO THE MEMBERS ON THE UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS OF HIGGINSHAW COMMUNITY PROJECT LIMITED
YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025
I report on the accounts of Higginshaw Community Project Limited for the year ended 30 June 2025 set out on pages 8 to 14.
Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner
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 accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (the 2006 Act). The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year, and that an independent examination is needed under s144 (2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act).
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law (part 16 of the 2006 Act) and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under s145 of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act)
-
follow the procedure laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners (under s145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act, and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of Independent Examiners Opinion
My examination was carried out in accordance with General Directions given by the Charity commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items of disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an opinion as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent Examiners Statement
I have completed my examination for the year ended 30 June 2025.
I can confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination which gives me cause to believe that:
-
accounting records were not kept in accordance with s386 of the Companies Act 2006; or
-
the accounts do not accord with such records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with relevant accounting requirements under section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 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
-
the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Charities SORP (FRS 102) – Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland [effective January 2019].
I have no concerns and have come across no matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
