quality of the charit¢s recruitment. employment, training. health and safety and safeguarding

3. Expanding Community Engagement
Broadening the reach of our programmes to encompass more areas across

By focusing on these core areas, we are confident in our ability to create a lasting positive

Reserves policy
It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds, which have not been designated for a
specific use, should be maintained at a level equivalent to a half of annual recurring
expenditure. The trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a
significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the charity's current activities while
consideration is also given to ways in which additional funds can be raised. Unrestricted funds
per note 16 at 31 December 2024 are £686,685 and our estimate of 6 months recurring
expenditure is £642,924. The board are pleased to report that the charity maintained its
minimum level of reserves throughout 2024. There is £400,000 in a designated fund to expand
areas within the charity including additional governance roles, leveraging external investment
opportunities, investment in facilities and supporting the redevelopment of the Forest Sports
Zone.
When setting the reserves policy for unrestricted funds the trustees are mindful of the fact that
some restricted activities require the use of unrestricted funds in the short term. Funding for
restricted activities is sometimes received after the activity has been completed and
expenditure will initially have been met from unrestricted funds.
Asset cover for funds
Note 17 sets out an analysis of the assets attributable to the various funds and a description of
the funds is set out in note 1.2. These assets are sufficient to meet the charity's obligations on
a fund by fund basis.
Disclosure of information to auditor
Each of the directors has confirmed that there is no information of which they are aware which
is relevant to the audit, but of which the auditor is unaware. They have further confirmed that
they have taken appropriate steps to identify such relevant information and to establish that
the auditors are aware of such information.

Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the Trustees, Responsibilities Statement set out on page 8, the
trustees {who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company
lawl are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that
they give a true and fair view. and for such internal control as the directors determine is
necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the company's
ability to continue as a going concern, disclosin& as applicable, matters related to going
concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the directors either intend to
liquidate the company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditorfs responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as
a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an
auditorfs report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance,
but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS (UK) will always detect
a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are
considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to
influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We
design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material
misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures
a re capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
Based on our understanding of the charitable company and the industry in which it operates,
we identified that the principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations related to
the acts by the charitable company, which were contrary to applicable laws and regulations
including fraud, and we considered the extent to which non-compliance might have a material
effect on the financial statements. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a
direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements such as the Companies Act 2006.
We evaluated management's incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the
financial statements {including the risk of override of controls), and determined that the
principal risks were related to completeness of revenue and the charitable company's net
income forthe year.
Audit procedures performed included.- review of the financial statement disclosures to
underlying supporting documentation, review of correspondence with and reports to the
regulators, including correspondence with the Charity Commission, review of trustee meeting

minutes, enquiries of management, tracing income and expenditure to supporting
documentation, and testing of journals and evaluating whether there was evidence of bias by
the trustees that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud.
There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and the further
removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions
reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it. Also, the risk
of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting
one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery
or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located
on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: hltp.1￿.frc.Org.ukJaudlt0rsreSponSlbllitles. This
description forms part of our auditorfs report.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the charitable compan¢s members, as a body, in accordance with
Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that
we might state to the charitable companvs members those matters we are required to state
to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law,
we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and
the charitable companTrls members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the
opinions we have formed.

website. The charity delivers major community engagement programmes across
Nottingham and Nottinghamshire at no cost to the club and creates a positive profile for
the club across professional football nationally, regionally, and locally that leads to
partnerships with private, public and third sector organisations helping the Club and Trust
deliver their aims and objectives.

services received or provided, so they have not been recorded in the financial statements.
There is a net balance owing from the football club at 31 December 2024 of £49,37612023:
£49,285).
