## **Trustees’ Report**
## **For The Year Ended 31 December 2025**
The Trustees (who are also directors of the charitable company for the purposes of the Companies Act) present their annual report together with the financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025.
The Trustees confirm that the annual report and financial statements of the charitable 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), applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). Since the company qualifies as small under section 383, the strategic report required of medium and large companies under The Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Director’s Report) Regulations 2013 is not required.
## **Our Aims and Objectives**
## **Purposes and Aim**
Our charity’s purposes, as set out in the objects contained in the company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association, are to:
- provide or assist in the provision of facilities in the interests of social welfare for recreation or other leisure time occupation of individuals who have need of such facilities by reason of their youth, age, infirmity or disability, financial hardship or social circumstances with the object of improving their condition of life including but not limited to the provision of facilities at the Herne Hill Velodrome; and/or
- promote participation in healthy recreation including but not limited to cycling; and/or
- provide or assist in the provision of facilities at (but not exclusively) the Herne Hill Velodrome for the use by the public at large without distinction of political, religious or other opinions including use for meetings, lectures and classes and other forms of recreation and leisure time occupation with the object of improving the conditions of life; and/or educate the public at large of the history of the Herne Hill Velodrome, cycling in the 1948 Olympics and/or the significance of the Olympic movement and legacy for cycling generally; and/or
- advance citizenship and community development; and/or
- such other charitable purposes consistent with the above and the Charities Act 2006 as the trustees in their absolute discretion shall determine.
The aim of our charity is to encourage increased participation in the sport of cycling and the promotion of healthy recreation more generally, and to bring the physical and mental health benefits of these activities to the widest possible community of users. This fully reflects the purposes that the charity was set up to further.
## **Public Benefit**
In setting objectives and planning activities, the board of trustees has paid due regard to the published guidance from the Charity Commission on the public benefit requirement under the Charities Act 2011.

**Herne Hill Velodrome Trust**
## **Trustees’ Report**
## **For The Year Ended 31 December 2025**
This review looks at what we achieved and the outcomes of our work during 2025, helping us to ensure that our aims, objectives and activities remained focused on our stated purposes. In particular, the trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set.
## **The Year in Review**
## **Our performance in 2025**
Herne Hill Velodrome aims to be an inclusive cycling facility that makes available a wide range of cycling and cycling related activities to a broad community of users, including:
- Dedicated training sessions and race leagues for female and veteran cyclists;
- Programmes to encourage children and inexperienced riders into the sport of cycling;
- Youth activities to promote a strong future generation of high-performing riders; and
- Sessions designed to be accessible for disabled people and their families, carers or friends.
In March 2026 the Trust published our first Impact Report coproduced with an external evaluator and covering 2025. It is publicly available using this link: hhv.patchworks.org.uk. During 2025 nearly 5,000 people attended at least two sessions at the velodrome. Whilst most came from South London, we also attracted users from across England including Birmingham, Exeter and Leeds. We did particularly well at attracting users from lower socio-economic backgrounds, with 36% of adults and 30% of children coming from the most deprived 40% of the population based on the Government’s Index of Multiple Deprivation. We achieved a Net Promoter Score (NPS) of +91 (on a scale of -100 to +100) indicating the vast majority of users would recommend us to a friend - an exceptionally high level of endorsement. We are proud of our inclusive and friendly community, with 94% of respondents reporting feeling welcome at HHV and 88% reporting feeling more connected to their community as a result of participating in HHV activities.
A calculation of the Social Return on Investment that we achieved concluded that HHV generated at least £8 of value for every £1 invested. This included the equivalent of £4.14m pa in improved physical health, £2.53m pa for improved community integration, and £221k pa from volunteering opportunities.
At the end of the year the Herne Hill Velodrome employed eleven members of staff on a full or parttime basis and over the course of 2025 it also worked with a number of part-time coaches. The Velodrome also partners with local cycling clubs and sports charities to facilitate and promote activity.
## **Financial Review**
Total income for the year amounted to £277,381 (2024: £251,023) and total expenditure amounted to £418,678 (2024: £433,568). The net movement in funds amounted to a deficit of £141,297 (2024: deficit of £182,545). The charitable company has ended the year with £1,058,518 in reserves (restricted £38,909 and unrestricted £1,019,609).

## **Herne Hill Velodrome Trust**
## **Trustees’ Report**
## **For The Year Ended 31 December 2025**
## **Reserves Policy**
The Trust receives income in the form of grant funding, Gift aid donations from its trading subsidiary, donations from individuals and organisations and from the Friends of Herne Hill Velodrome. Where donations from individuals or organisations are for a specified activity or cost these funds are recorded in restricted funds. Income not subject to these restrictions is recorded in unrestricted funds. The Trust has no designated funds.
The trustees have examined the requirement for free reserves, i.e. those unrestricted funds not invested in tangible fixed assets, designated for specific purposes or otherwise committed. The Trustees aim to maintain unrestricted free reserves of at least 3 months but not more than 6 months operational costs.
The reserves are needed to meet the working capital requirements of the charity and the trustees are confident that at this level they would be able to continue the current activities of the charity in the event of a significant drop in income. The trustees have also considered the extent to which existing activities and expenditure could be curtailed, or fundraising income increase, should the circumstances require it.
## **Investment Policy**
The trustees aim for the charity to generate a surplus each year that will enable it to fund any capital investment as and when this is required in the future and, in particular, works on the track to ensure its continued use. In light of improved performance and sound financial management in recent years the charity presently holds reserves in excess of the requirement for free reserves and so a review was conducted by the trustees in 2022. Steps have since been taken by the trustees to invest the charity’s excess funds.
## **Day to day operations**
The Herne Hill Velodrome Trust operates Herne Hill Velodrome via a wholly owned subsidiary trading company which receives income from track rental, rider sessions, cycle races and sponsorship alongside sales from Jan’s Café. The Trust also receives grant income and donations and has a Friends organisation, the Friends of Herne Hill Velodrome, which raises funds from membership subscriptions, the sale of branded merchandise and fundraising events.
The Friends of Herne Hill Velodrome play a critical role in the activities of Herne Hill Velodrome and they are a valued contributor to the Trust's mission.
## **Plans for the future**
The charity plans continuing the activities outlined above in the forthcoming years subject to satisfactory funding arrangements. Plans are also being developed to both increase and diversify income generated at Herne Hill Velodrome and to increase the extent of our outreach activities with schools, youth organisations and groups that are otherwise underrepresented in cycling, with a renewed focus on off road cycling. After the end of the period covered in this report, we have also started the process of developing a vision and five year strategy to set us on the right course for the next stage of our development. It is hoped this will lead to a strengthening of our delivery against our aim as well as improved financial sustainability.

## **Herne Hill Velodrome Trust**
## **Trustees’ Report**
## **For The Year Ended 31 December 2025**
## **Structure, Governance and Management**
## **Governing Document**
The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 2 December 2010 and registered as a charity on 31 January 2011. The 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.
## **Recruitment and Appointment of Trustees**
Under the requirements of the Memorandum and Articles of Association trustees shall not be required to retire by rotation for the first three years following appointment.
During the fourth year following appointment the following provisions shall apply to all the Trustees:
- at each Annual General Meeting, one third of the Trustees shall be required to retire, but they will be eligible for reappointment;
- those selected for retirement will be those who have been in office the longest. Where Trustees have been in office for equal periods, those retiring shall be selected by lot;
- retiring Trustees shall be eligible for reappointment for another term of three years (always subject to a maximum term of six years);
- a Trustee must then stand down but is eligible for re-election after the expiration of a twelve-month period.
Different appointment provisions apply to the appointment of one trustee appointed by British Cycling and one trustee appointed by the Friends of Herne Hill Velodrome.
The Board seeks to ensure that its needs are appropriately reflected through the diversity of the trustee body and it takes active steps to enhance the potential pool of trustees, in particular by drawing new trustees from the user base of Herne Hill Velodrome, the wider cycling community and local residents with an interest in the future success of the facility.
## **A change of chairs**
Tim McInnes completed his final term as Chair of Trustees shortly after the end of the period covered in this report in February 2026. Tim was our Chair for seven years, stewarding the Trust through crucial years as we matured from a newly formed charity with a handful of staff into a well established operation with eleven staff members. During that time much was done to put the Trust on a firm footing, including professionalising every aspect of our operations, reinvigorating the board of trustees and building up healthy reserves. Tim also guided the Trust through the Covid pandemic and the velodrome’s bounce back afterwards. At the end of the period covered by this report he led the recruitment of his successor, Simon Tucker, and was on hand to provide a smooth and effective handover. The Trust would not be where it is today without Tim’s hard work and dedication sustained over many years.

## **Herne Hill Velodrome Trust**
## **Trustees’ Report**
## **For The Year Ended 31 December 2025**
## **Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities**
The trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under company law the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure of the charitable company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP;
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charitable company’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charity’s website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.
This report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.
The annual report was approved by the Board of trustees on **14th July 2026** and signed on its behalf by:

**Independent Examiner’s Report to the Trustees of**
## **Herne Hill Velodrome Trust**
## **For The Year Ended 31 December 2025**
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Herne Hill Velodrome Trust for the year ended 31[st] December 2025.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the charity’s trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts 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 your 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 Company’s gross income exceeded £250,000, I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the 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 Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
3. the accounts 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 accounts 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).
I have no concerns and 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.

**Herne Hill Velodrome Trust**
## **Notes to the financial statements**
## **For the year ended 31 December 2025**
## **1 Accounting policies**
## **Charity information**
Herne Hill Velodrome Trust is a company limited by guarantee and a registered charity in England. The registered office is 104 Burbage Road SE24 9HE.
## **Basis of preparation**
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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) - (Charities SORP FRS 102), and the Companies Act 2006.
The charity is exempted from preparing a cash flow statement due to the exemption available to charities with income less than £500,000.
Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy or note.
## **Group accounts exemption**
The financial statements give information on the charitable company as a single entity. The charitable company is exempt from preparing group accounts because the income of the group does not exceed the threshold of £1m. Further details of investment in subsidiary are given in note 12.
## **Public benefit entity**
The charitable company meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.
## **Going concern**
The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern. The trustees do not consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period.
## **Income**
Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and that the amount can be measured reliably.
Income from grants and donations are recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred. Income received in advance of the provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met.
## **Fund accounting**
Restricted funds are to be used for specific purposes as laid down by the donor. Expenditure which meets these criteria is charged to the fund.
Unrestricted funds are donations and other incoming resources received or generated for the charitable purposes.
## **Expenditure**
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:
**Costs of raising funds** relate to the costs incurred by the charitable company in inducing third parties to make voluntary contributions to it, as well as the costs of trading activities with a fundraising purpose and their associated support costs.
Expenditure on **charitable activities** includes the costs of charitable activities that are undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs.
**Support costs** include the costs of overall direction and administration, comprising salary and overhead costs of the central function, and have been apportioned on the basis consistent with use of

Leasehold and other interests in land and buildings Over the length of the lease All other assets Over five years
## **Stock**

## **Cash at bank and in hand**
Cash at bank and in hand includes all bank balances kept in current accounts and call deposits.
## **Creditors and provisions**
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.
