## **Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** 

## **Change in Financial Year** Keeping focus on the future 

To streamline our operations and improve transparency for our members, the charity has made the strategic decision to run a shortened financial year. This transition is primarily designed to fix a persistent reporting lag: historically, our Annual General Meetings (AGMs) have focused on financial data from two years prior, rather than the most recent results. By adjusting our cycle now, we ensure that future AGMs provide a much more relevant and timely snapshot of our impact. Additionally, this shift aligns our "charity pot" with the standard calendar year (January to December), making our fundraising targets and financial milestones significantly clearer and easier for all club members to track. 

## **Club Membership** Heading the right way 

**Poynton Round Table** is powered entirely by the dedication of our volunteer members, whose engagement is fundamental to the club’s ongoing success. Over the past two years, we have navigated a significant transition as several long-standing core members reached the age limit mandated by the **National Association of Round Tables** . While these members have moved on to the **41 Club** —ensuring their continued connection to our community—their departure resulted in a temporary loss of institutional knowledge, experience, and active headcount. 

This "aging out" policy is a central tenet of the Round Table, designed to ensure the organization remains youthful, energetic, and relevant to new generations. In response to this transition, we have executed a proactive recruitment strategy over the last 24 months, utilizing targeted social media campaigns to reach a wider local audience. These marketing efforts are already yielding positive results, with a measurable growth in our membership numbers. Moving forward, we will maintain this momentum in our recruitment and onboarding processes, as a robust and active membership remains the single most important factor in securing the club’s future. 

## **Poynton Bonfire and Fireworks - 1st November 2025** Summary 

The Bonfire event held on **1st November 2025** followed an extraordinary three-year streak where the club hosted the most profitable displays in its history. While those record-breaking years were driven by a unique post-pandemic surge in local attendance, 2025 saw a return to much more usual levels of attendees and revenue. 

5 March **2012** 

**TAR** 



The **Total Turnover of £45,928.94** represents a stabilization of ticket sales - down from the prior year of **£59,375.72, and the record high of £67,955.75 set in 2024 -** as the event settled back into its traditional baseline. This normalization of revenue, coupled with an increase in essential infrastructure costs such as fencing, lighting, and security, resulted in a **Gross Profit of £18,097.22** . While lower than the exceptional peaks of the last three years, this remain a strong performance that continues to provide a vital contribution to our charity pot. 

## Revenue Performance 

**Total Turnover Decline:** Turnover dropped from **£59,375.72** to **£45,928.94** . 

**Ticket Sales:** The primary driver of the revenue drop was **Ticket Sales** , which fell by nearly **£12,000** (from **£46,641.96** to **£34,680.27** ) as attendance normalized to **3,900** from **5,000** in 2024. This shift reflects a return to post-pandemic demand and the 2025 date falling during half-term, immediately following Halloween. Notably, the **1st November** date was strategically chosen in coordination with the **Wilmslow Round Table** ; by scheduling their event the following week, we avoided direct competition and worked together to maximize fundraising for local causes. 

**Bar Sales:** While total bar revenue naturally trended downward alongside attendance, **spend per head increased by 2.5%** (from **£1.98** to **£2.03** ). This improved engagement suggests a higher ratio of adult attendees, likely due to the event falling during half-term and immediately following Halloween, which potentially reduced child ticket sales. 

To support this revenue stream, we invested in upgraded card readers featuring intuitive user interfaces for item selection. These devices significantly accelerated transaction speeds, resulting in noticeably shorter queues and a more seamless experience for our volunteers and guests. 

## Rising Cost of Sales and Strategic Investment 

**Total Cost of Sales actually increased** from £24,169.03 to **£27,831.72** . Key cost drivers included: 

**Generator and lighting:** Expenditure for **Generator and Lighting** rose from **£324** to **£1,171.74** , primarily driven by essential long-term investments rather than rising operational overheads. This year, we prioritized the maintenance of our core electrical infrastructure, replacing aging cabling and sockets that had reached the end of their service life. 

6 March **2012** 

**TAR** 



Furthermore, we directly addressed historical guest feedback by investing in dedicated lighting and distribution for the family area—a zone that has previously been a source of dissatisfaction due to poor visibility. As these are one-off capital improvements, they will not be recurring costs in future years. When isolating these upgrades, our baseline generator hire costs remained stable, showing only a marginal increase in line with inflation. 

**External Fencing:** Expenditure for **External Fencing** increased from approximately **£700** to **£1,200.05** this year. While this appears as a cost spike, it represents a strategic shift from renting to **full ownership** . By purchasing our own Heras fencing rather than continuing with annual hire fees, we have eliminated a recurring operational expense for all future events. 

**Volunteer Support:** Expenditure for Volunteer Support increased, reflecting a strategic doubling of our volunteer workforce compared to previous years. 

Following the record-breaking attendance levels of recent years, we felt this increased presence was essential to maintain the highest standards of safety and crowd management. Protecting our guests remains our paramount priority, and this investment in our "boots on the ground" ensured the 2025 event was both secure and well-supported. Future volunteer numbers will be reviewed in the days leading up to the event with the view of standing down volunteers if ticket sales are lower than expected. 

**Parking and traffic management:** This year, we invested **£646.80** in the purchase of new traffic cones, a critical component of our commitment to professional event logistics. Effective traffic management is essential for maintaining local road flow and ensuring that emergency services have unobstructed access to residential areas surrounding the event site. 

In the spirit of community collaboration, this equipment is part of a shared infrastructure pool used by other local organizations. We partner with groups such as the **Rotary Club** for "Party in the Park" and the **Poynton Show** organizers, taking turns to invest in long-term assets that benefit all major community events in the area. 

## Profitability 

With the decrease in revenue and the increase in costs **Gross Profit** from the event was: **£18,097.22,** to be given to charitable causes in line with our objectives. 

## **Santa Rounds - December 2025** Summary 

Following a period of declining contributions, we implemented a strategic "renewed focus" for the 2025 Santa Rounds to reverse this trend and modernize the event's appeal. By prioritizing both operational technology and the "spectacle" of the sleigh, we successfully transformed the guest experience and our fundraising capacity.

## Strategic Investments & Digital Transformation 

To better align with modern donor habits, we transitioned away from a cash-heavy model by investing in **integrated payment solutions** . This included: 

- **Mobile Point-of-Sale (POS):** Volunteers carried handheld card machines, and permanent "tap-to-donate" solutions were mounted directly onto the sleigh. 

- **Visibility:** These tools made the option to donate more visible and accessible for residents who no longer carry physical currency. 

- **The "Memorable Experience" Factor:** We invested in a **new snow machine** for the sleigh. This addition created a more magical and memorable atmosphere for the children and parents of Poynton, distinguishing the event from previous years. 

## Financial Results 

These strategic decisions led to an exceptional year-over-year performance, with a **52.9% increase** in total donation value. 

Despite the capital investment in new equipment and payment tech, our overall costs were **11.3% lower** than the previous year, totaling **£746.70** . This resulted in a final net contribution of **£1,058.57** to the charity pot—a remarkable **212% increase** in profitability compared to the prior period. This success provides a clear blueprint for how the club can use targeted investments to drive sustainable growth in our core community activities. 

## **Charitable Grants and Impact** 

During this shortened financial period, the total volume of grants awarded was naturally lower than in previous years. This is primarily due to the timing of our primary annual grant-awarding meeting, which did not fall within this eight-month window. We anticipate a significant portion of our awarding activity to resume in the upcoming financial year as we return to our standard schedule. 

Despite the shortened timeframe, the club successfully distributed £11,350 to support local causes and individuals. 

## Distribution by Organisation Type 

Our giving remains heavily focused on local infrastructure, with nearly two-thirds of all funding directed toward non-registered community groups and organizations. 

8 March **2012** 

**TAR** 



|**Grant Category**|**Amount**<br>**Awarded**|**% of Total**<br>**Giving**|
|---|---|---|
|**Donations/Grants - Other**<br>**Organisations**|£7,375.00|65.0%|
|**Donations/Grants - Charities**|£3,725.00|32.8%|
|**Donations/Grants - Individuals**|£250.00|2.2%|
|**Total Distributed**|**£11,350.00**|**100%**|



## Impact by Charitable Purpose 

The "Advancement of Education" was our primary philanthropic driver this period, accounting for over half of our total charitable spend. We also maintained strong support for local physical activity and community development projects. 

9 March **2012** 

**TAR** 



|**Charitable Purpose**|**Amount**<br>**Awarded**|**% of Total**<br>**Giving**|
|---|---|---|
|**Advancement of Education**|£6,000.00|52.9%|
|**Advancement of Amateur Sport**|£3,150.00|27.8%|
|**Citizenship or Community**<br>**Development**|£1,750.00|15.4%|
|**Prevention or Relief of Poverty**|£250.00|2.2%|
|**Environmental Protection or**<br>**Improvement**|£200.00|1.7%|
|**Total**|**£11,350.00**|**100.0%**|



These figures demonstrate that even in a transitional financial year, the Poynton and District Round Table continues to provide vital, targeted support across a diverse range of community needs. 

## **Breakdown of Assets and Liabilities at the end of period** 

Our opening charity account balance on 1[st] May 2025 was £66,682.31 inclusive of the reserve account balance. 

Our closing charity account balance on 31st December 2025 was £74,504.10 inclusive of the reserve account balance.
