The Trustees confirm that the Annual report and financial statements of the company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the company's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” issued in March 2005.
Structure, governance and management
a. CONSTITUTION
The company is registered as a charitable company limited by guarantee and was set up by a Memorandum of Association on 10/12/2007.
The company is constituted under a Memorandum of Association dated 10/12/2007 and is a registered charity number 1128650.
The charitable objects are to provide sporting facilities for the local community and to encourage participation in a number of different sporting activities.
b. METHOD OF APPOINTMENT OR ELECTION OF TRUSTEES
The management of the company is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected and co-opted under the terms of the Articles of Association.
c. ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURE AND DECISION MAKING
The board of trustees administer the charity. The board meets on a regular basis to discuss the running of the charity.

Trustee's report (continued) for the year ended June 30, 2023 ii eee eee resources and support from Aspire Media Group Limited to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.
b. REVIEW OF ACTIVITIES
The main facilities of JobServe Sports and Social Club are based at Warriors' Rest, Maypole Road, Tiptree. The site consists of a clubhouse, bowling green, football pitches and a covered multi-use games area.
The following clubs are currently in residence at the site:
Tiptree JobServe Bowls Club (formerly Anchor Press Bowls Club) Tiptree JobServe FC (a merger of The Sportsman's Football Club, Tiptree Minors Football Club & Tiptree Heath Football Club) : Warriors' Rest Clay Pidgeon Club
During the year all three clubs have developed their memberships and continue to attract participants in their respective sports.
c, INVESTMENT POLICY AND PERFORMANCE
Financial review
a. RESERVES POLICY
It is the trustees aim to hold unrestricted funds equivalent to 6 months expenditure. However due to the initial high startup costs incurred in the first trading period, the charity is currently in a deficit. It is hoped that these will be mitigated in forthcoming periods.
Restricted funds are made up of unexpended grant income which is recognised against the proportion of depreciation on the asset to which the grant relates.
b. DEFICIT
During the period of operation, the club has generated a significant deficit. Fortunately for the charity, it has the support of Aspire Media Group Limited and has received interest free loans which have allowed it to fund this deficit. In future periods it is expected that the club will generate sufficient subscriptions, donations, and sponsorship to at least break even.
Plans for the future
a. FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS
Due to the impact of the corona virus pandemic future development plans have been put on hold and remain so for the foreseeable future.
Continuing from year ended 30 June 2023 the charity will apply for a number of sources of grant funding, as well as receiving sponsorship and donations from local businesses with the aim of surviving these challenging times.

(A company limited by guarantee) independent examiner's report for the year ended June 30, 2023
| report on the accounts of Jobserve Sports and Social Club for the year ended 30 June which are set out on pages 6 to 13.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The Charity's Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Charity’s Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 144 (2) of the Charities Act 2011 (The Act) but that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to: - Examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act, - To follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners (under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act, and - To state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's Statement
----- Start of picture text -----
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners.
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 considerations of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and
seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all
the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently | do not express an audit opinion on the view given by
the accounts.
Independent examiner's statement
In the course of my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which
gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect:
- the accounting records were not kept in.accordancewith section 130.of the.
Charities Act; or
- the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or
= the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the
form and content of the accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and
Reports) Regulations 2008 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.
| 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 accounts
to be reached.

Chairman's Report 2022/23
Introduction
This report identifies the progress made in the development of the JobServe Sports & Social Club during 2022/2023.
Objectives
The objectives of the Charity during that period remain to:
-
Promote community participation in healthy recreation by providing facilities for playing sports ("facilities" means land, buildings equipment and organising sporting activities).
-
Provide and assist in providing facilities for sport, recreation or other leisure time occupation of such persons who have need for such facilities by reason of their youth, age, infirmity or disablement, poverty or social and economic circumstances or for the public at large in the interests of social welfare and with the object of improving their conditions of life.
Financial
Income & Expenditure
The club's continuing aim is to be self-financing. Income is generated from a range of sources, including membership fees, hire of premises, grants, donations and sponsorship.
Where the club fails to be self-financing JobServe Ltd and its parent company, Aspire Media Group Ltd, are Committed to providing ongoing financial support for the JSSC.
Membership Fees
When membership fees were set for this period JSSC were mindful of its obligation not to cause exclusion by way of discrimination. Therefore the fees were applied in a non-discriminatory manner at all times. The level of fees have only been a part, albeit an important part, of the overall income required to cover costs and fund future developments and growth. No significant increases in membership fees were introduced in 2022/23.
Clay Pigeon Shooting Fees
Similarly our charges for use of the area licensed for clay pigeon shooting were structured to support the shooting club's desire to retain members, whilst recovering some of the costs involved in providing and maintaining safety measures and access to the site. This was achieved successfully in this period.
Dome Hiring Fees
These remained the same as for the previous period.
Sponsorship
JobServe provide sponsorship to the value of £15 per paid member.
The Clubs
Bowls Club
The 2022-23 season was the first fully open season following the Covid pandemic.
Following the successful recruitment drive in 2021, a key priority for the 22-23 season was to attract even more members into the club, and a recruitment campaign, once again involving an Open Weekend, local press and online advertising, and leaflet distribution at local events, along with personal introductions from existing members, resulted in 18 new players joining the club during the season along with another 7 social members.
Sincere thanks must go to everyone who had a hand in making this campaign, and the subsequent coaching of 18 new members, such a great success. At the end of the season, the club had 82 players and it is in good shape to face the challenges of 2024.
In terms of league performance, the club performed creditably, considering the small player base, and the occasional need to field players who had just taken up the sport during the season.
-
e The club finished in 2™ place in the North West Essex Ladies’ league — up from 6" place last year. Unfortunately, because some of these games clashed with County matches, the club was not always able to field its strongest team.
-
e The Ladies also performed very well in various Essex County competitions, winning through to the finals in the Triples, the Senior 4s and the Benevolent Singles knockout competitions.
The club also hosted a number of other County, representative and friendly matches. The club has gained a good reputation throughout the County over the past few years for the quality of its green and its ability to cater for such events, and this will continue to provide useful opportunities for fundraising, as well as raising the profile of the club across Essex.
In furtherance of the aim of the Charity to promote community participation in healthy recreation, the club hosted approx. 20 members of Colchester Utd. FC’s Senior U’s social club. In total, the session received very positive feedback from those who attended.
Away from the green, the club maintains an active social calendar throughout the year, with the clubhouse and bar open every Friday night throughout the year for members to socialise. Members also enjoyed a Christmas party/presentation evening, quiz nights and bingo nights, with more events planned throughout 2024.
The Football Clubs
Youth Section Season
The youth section returned to a more ‘normal’ season after previous Covid-affected seasons. Teams run from U7 through to U1, plus a successful observe Juniors’ section that is a pay-andplay session for children aged 3-6 years of age.
The U13 team won their league and also the cup and five teams won the Sportsmanship award from the league for their behaviour and approach during the season.
-
Pitch Preparation Fund — Using the grant the team were able to fully start the pitch renovations to improve the playing surface. The grant enabled Verti-Drain, sand, reseeding and fertilisation to occur. A water bowser was also installed and Jobserve helped install underground piping to allow pitch watering during the summer (this significantly aided the club to keep the pitches ‘alive’ during long drought periods).
-
FA Accreditation — the club successfully gained its FA Accredited status. This means that we adhere to the strict guidelines and governance set out by County FA for a better environment, including:
-
e All Managers/Assistants DBS Checked e Allteams with a FA Level 1 Coach
-
e All teams with a Manager/ Coach that is First Aid trained and achieved the Child Welfare Safeguarding Certificate
-
e Club plan and future goals
-
Fees — Youth membership is £795 annual membership and then: e £4 per game for mini soccer matches e £5 per game for 11-a-side matches
-
Clubhouse Renovation — The adult Saturday teams refurbished the male changing rooms at Warriors Rest. All materials and labour was supplied by the players, and provided a bigger and modernised environment that included:
-

The Adult Section
The men’s football section continued to thrive, providing a pathway for youth players to transition to adult football. There were four adult teams — two Saturday teams playing at Florence Park, and two Sunday teams playing at Tiptree Sports Centre and Warriors Rest.
The Saturday side consolidated their positions in the Essex & Suffolk Border League in Division One and Two, whilst the Sunday Firsts were promoted to the Premier league where they finished third and reached a cup final.
Warriors Rest Shooting Club
The shooting club have continued to manage their own affairs well and they spend significant time maintaining the shooting area.
