Please see attached the Foundations accounts for last year.
The headline figures are:
Income £42,077 down from £37,321 in the previous year (PY).
Expenditure £79,512 (of which £71,294 was grants) PY £46,629 (£42,519)
Deficit - £37,435, PY Surplus -£9,308
Cash balance £131,842, PY £169,277
The Charity income is slightly up from the low of the previous years.
During year end 31 March 2025 we built on the progress from 2024 and continue the year-on-year trend of receiving and processing more grant requests than the previous year. After a 10% increase in 2023/24 there was an impressive 70.5%in the current year
This means that the charity is again reporting a deficit but as we are focussed on spending funds that have been raised and with a cash balance still of £131,842 this is a trend we would expect to see until the cash balances are back down to levels that the trustees feel is sensible to cover our running costs.
The trustees remain focussed in enabling us to carry out our mission which is to help give young people the unique opportunity to develop life skills through the power of football and to assist them in their goals of ‘living the dream’
Regards,
David.
