Trustees' Annual Report (Incorporating the Director's Report) (continued)

Year ended 30 June 2023

FINANCIAL REVIEW

During the year, total incoming resources amounted to £581,858 (2022: £523,124) which resulted in net incoming resources of £24,449 (2022: £1,321). As at 30 June 2023, the charity held total reserves of £701,938. Included in unrestricted reserves are designated funds of £60,000 relating to Newman School, this is expected to be spent in the next financial year. The charity’s current level of unrestricted free reserves (total funds less the amount held in restricted funds, unrestricted fixed asset funds and designated funds) is £564,477. Restricted funds at the year-end totalled £55,340. Unrestricted tangible fixed assets of £22,121 are held for use by the charity and can only be realised by the disposal of these assets.

Financial Outlook

The 'cost of living crisis' has placed an increasing burden not only on our local communities but on the financial environment in which we operate. The net result being that we find ourselves continually searching (in a decreasing and competitive pool) for funding to support the crucial work needed by so many in our community. The trustees are grateful to the management and staff for their continued enthusiasm and dedication to meet and exceed expectations thereby ensuring that we continue to best serve the community whilst remaining financially sustainable. With no expected easing of the financial pressures in sight, the trustees continue to monitor the financial position closely.

Reserves Policy

The trustees have reviewed the charitable company's need for reserves in line with the guidance issued by the Charities Commission. The total reserves at 30 June 2023 were £701,938 (2022: £677,489) of which £564,477 (2022: £607,797) was free unrestricted. The trustees' aim is to hold sufficient funds to meet the running costs of the charitable company for a period of 12 months. Running costs for 2023 were £557,409 which was less than the reserves.

Investment Policy

The charitable company has the power to deposit or invest funds in any manner it sees fit after obtaining advice from a financial services expert and having due regard to the sustainability of investments and the need for diversification. The charitable company has invested funds in various bank savings / investment accounts which earn interest.

Risk Management

The trustees have undertaken a review of the major risks to which the charitable company is exposed. After discussion with insurers, a policy has been taken out to cover identified insurable risks.

A review of uninsurable risks has been undertaken and a risk register has been established to ensure due processes and policies are in place to mitigate the various risks. This register is subject to regular review. The main uninsurable risk facing the charitable company is the uncertainty of future income. To lessen the risk, the charity holds sufficient funds within its reserves to cover a short-term fall in income.

PUBLIC BENEFIT

The trustees have considered the guidance produced by the Charity Commission on the provision of public benefit and they confirm that public benefit has been provided by having aims that fall within the charitable purposes of the advancement of education, health and amateur sport.

PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS

Strategic Review

We have a strategic plan in place running to 2025. To ensure our plan remains dynamic, the trustees seek direct feedback from the whole team on the continued relevance of existing projects and the emerging needs of the community.

Plans for Future Periods

Our immediate imperatives include:

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 23rd October 2008, registered as a charity on 6 November 2008 and commenced its activities on 1st January 2009. The charitable company was established under a memorandum of Association which established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association. In the event of the company being wound up, members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £1.

Mr James Tose, Community Manager, is responsible for the day-to-day management of the charity and this responsibility has been delegated by the trustees. Mr Tose succeeded Mr Halpin who retired in December 2022. The trustees wish to record their thanks to Mr Halpin - his dedication, commitment and enthusiasm have ensured that the trust is in a robust position and commands a highly respected place in the community.

Decisions regarding the management of the charity are taken at trustee meetings which are held every 2 months. From time-to-time sub groups are established to report to the board on specific matters e.g. pay and remuneration.

Year ended 30 June 2023

Remuneration Policy of Key Management Personnel

Each year the trustees will consider if an independent review of salaries is necessary. Formal consideration of remuneration takes place annually with the implementation of any changes being effective from April. However, remuneration may also be considered on an ad hoc basis should specific issues arise. Remuneration is bench marked against similar organisations using the knowledge of the trustees, HR adviser and the Community Manager. Latterly, the EFL Trust carried out a survey to provide data on a a full range of roles within community trusts - this document has proved to be a useful reference.

Recruitment and Appointment of Trustees

Any person can be admitted as a trustee of the charity providing all other trustees give their approval. Under the requirements of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the trustees are required to retire annually by rotation but they will qualify for re - election. The number of trustees shall not be less than 3 but is not subject to any maximum.

Induction and Training of Trustees

To function effectively, the board requires a diverse mix of individuals that are willing to use their experience, skills and knowledge to help the trust achieve its goals and ambitions. Once an expression of interest has been received, we ensure that the perspective trustee is given adequate information about the role of the trustee, the plans of the trust, how the board operates, required time commitments etc. The applicant can then make an informed decision about proceeding. On being appointed as a trustee, a formal induction programme is in place. This includes - Charity Commission guidance on the role and responsibilities of a trustee, code of conduct, the role of the board / scheme of delegation etc. Engagement in further external training and development opportunities is encouraged.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER

Mrs Lindsay Farrer BA(Hons), FCA, FABRP has been re-appointed as independent examiner for the ensuring year.

SMALL COMPANY PROVISIONS

This report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions applicable to companies entitled to the small companies exemption.

The trustees' annual report was approved on 21[st] February 2024 and signed on behalf of the board of trustees by:

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Carlisle United FC Community Sports Trust

Year ended 30 June 2023

I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Carlisle United FC Community Sports Trust ('the charity') for the year ended 30 June 2023.

RESPONSIBILITIES AND BASIS OF REPORT

As the trustees of the company (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 accounts of the company 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 accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination I have followed the 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 the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW), 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:

  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).

Company Limited by Guarantee

Notes to the Financial Statements

Year ended 30 June 2023

1. GENERAL INFORMATION

The charity is a public benefit entity and a private company limited by guarantee, registered in England and Wales and a registered charity in England and Wales. The address of the registered office is Brunton Park, Warwick Road, Carlisle, CA1 1LL.

2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE

These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland', the 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) (Charities SORP 2019 (FRS 102)) and the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities Act 2011.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through income or expenditure.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.

Going concern

There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue.

Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Significant judgements:

The trustees consider there to be no significant judgements made in the process of applying the entity's accounting policies.

Key sources of estimation uncertainty:

Accounting estimates and assumptions are made concerning the future and, by their nature, will rarely equal the related actual outcome. The trustees consider there to be no key sources of estimation uncertainty.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds are donations and other incoming resources receivable or generated for the objects of the charity without further specified purpose and are available as general funds.

Restricted funds are subject to restrictions on their expenditure imposed by the donor.

Year ended 30 June 2023

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Incoming resources

All incoming resources are 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:

Resources expended

Expenditure is included on an accruals basis. Expenditure includes any VAT, which cannot be recovered, and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates.

Costs of generating voluntary income comprise those costs directly attributable to raising funds for the charity.

Charitable activities expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services to enable the charity to meet its charitable aims and objectives. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those of an indirect nature necessary to support them. Wages costs have been allocated against funds based on staff time spent on these activities.

Governance costs include the cost of the preparation and examination of statutory accounts, the costs of trustee meetings and costs of any legal advice to the trustees on governance or constitutional matters.

Tangible assets

All fixed assets are initially recorded at cost. Additions under £200 are not capitalised.

Depreciation

Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:

Motor Vehicles - 25% reducing balance Equipment - 20% reducing balance

The depreciation charge for additions in the year is time apportioned based on the month of purchase.

Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)

Year ended 30 June 2023

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)

Impairment of fixed assets

A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date.

Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash held in current accounts, deposit accounts and petty cash. Any short term highly liquid investments held would also be included within cash at bank and in hand.

Creditors

Creditors and provisions 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.

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.

Financial assets that are measured at cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective evidence of impairment at the end of each reporting date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an impairment loss is recognised under the appropriate heading in the statement of financial activities in which the initial gain was recognised.

Any reversals of impairment are recognised immediately, to the extent that the reversal does not result in a carrying amount of the financial asset that exceeds what the carrying amount would have been had the impairment not previously been recognised.

Defined contribution plans

Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as an expense in the period in which the related service is provided. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that the prepayment will lead to a reduction in future payments or a cash refund.

4. LIMITED BY GUARANTEE

The liability of the members is limited. Every member of the charity undertakes to contribute to the assets of the charity, in the event of the same being wound up while he is a member, or within one year after he ceases to be a member, for payment of the debtors and liabilities of the charity contracted before he ceases to be a member, and of the costs, charges and expenses of winding up, and for the adjustment of the rights of the contributions among themselves, such amount as may be required not exceeding £1.
