Chairman's Report For The Year Ended 30 June 2022

The past twelve months have seen us return to near normal operations following the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic.

The Directors feel that we have successfully responded to the impact of the pandemic and are in a solid position moving forward. Despite initially indicating that our Business Interruption Insurance claim was likely to be unsuccessful we were delighted to receive a pay out of £37,082 which has helped us maintain a strong balance sheet. Income from footballing activities is, obviously significantly higher than last year but also, encouragingly, ahead of the 2018-19 financial year which was the last full year we had before Covid.

Disappointingly, following our return to near normal operations there has been minimal progress by WPSC for the development of the Centre, tenders were sought for the proposed redevelopment work but these proved to be far in excess of the available budget. Alternative plans are now being pursued but progress is very slow.

Staff have largely remained loyal and staff work together as a team to cover the necessary hours, this has certainly eased the return to normal working with minimal disruption.

I believe that after such a difficult time we can look forward with continued optimism to the coming year, Covid permitting.

Report of the Trustees For The Year Ended 30 June 2022

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30 June 2022. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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) (effective 1 January2015).

The Trustees (who constitute directors of the company for the purposes of the Companies Act) present their report together with the examined financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2022 and confirm that the latter comply with the requirements of the Act, FRS 102, SORP and the Charities Act 2011.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

The objects of the charity are defined by the Memorandum and Articles of Association as:

"The promotion of community participation in healthy recreation for the benefit of the residents of Sale in the Borough of Trafford and the neighborhood, without distinction of sex, sexual orientation, race or of political, religious or other opinions by the provision of facilities for playing small sided and indoor football."

Block and casual bookings have risen sharply to £92,574 due to the reopening of the centre post covid-19. This is an increase of £4,892 (6%) compared to the financial year 2018-19 when the centre was last open for a full year pre covid-19, and an increase of £80,833 (688%) from last financial year 2020-21 when the centre was shut. Total income in this financial year 2021-22 was further increased by a net rise in other income of £1,622 (4%) from prior year to £39,782. This comprised; Business Interruption insurance claim of £37,082 and commercial TV income of £2,700.

Public benefit

The Trustees have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aims and objectives.

All our charitable activities focus on enabling our local community to lead healthier and happier lives by providing affordable facilities for small sided indoor football.

Being based in the heart of Sale and only a few hundred yards from Brooklands Metrolink station, the Centre continues to enable different age groups to enjoy the benefits of playing football. The younger section of our customer base has continued to expand, whilst still retaining regular users playing into their retirement, pointing to sustainable growth. Alongside this, we have also recently introduced 'Walking Football' groups, further promoting social inclusion and extended healthy living.

In addition to the charity, at selected times, makes the Centre available at no charge to organisations working with the unemployed.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Financial Review

The statement of financial activities for the year is comprehensively reported on pages 7 - 15.

The statement of financial activities shows unrestricted income for the year of £132,356 with no restricted income. There was an increase in income due to the centre being reopen for bookings after a long period of closure due to Covid-19. This resulted in a profit of £42,067.

Investment policy and objectives

Given the limited funds held by the charity and the very low interest rates available, there has been limited scope or need for investment planning. The continued need for infrastructure investment, will mean for the foreseeable future that income will be spent on important improvements to enable the company to deliver an improving service to our customers and clients.

Report of the Trustees For The Year Ended 30 June 2022

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Reserves policy

It is the policy of the charity to maintain unrestricted funds, which are the free reserves of the charity, at a level which equates to approximately three months unrestricted expenditure. This would provide sufficient funds to cover costs and to respond to unexpected events which may arise from time to time. In addition, the Trustees have further decided to allow the reserves to grow beyond this, with immediate further environmental investments necessary and the potential for significant expenditure on major capital expenditure in the future. This has been met for 2021/22.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Charity constitution and Governing document

The company was incorporated on 17 February 2011 under the Companies Act 2006 as a company limited by guarantee and not having share capital. In the event of a winding up, registered members are liable to contribute a sum not exceeding £10 per member towards the debts and liabilities of the Trust and the costs and expenses of winding up.

The charity, registered on 14 April 2011, is governed by the terms of its memorandum and articles of association, which established the objects and powers of the charitable company.

Method of appointment of Trustees

New Trustees are recruited with a view to bringing the skills, knowledge and experience required to ensure the charity is well governed. Trustees are elected by the members of the charity attending the Annual General Meeting, or by proxy vote.

Organisational structure

The Centre's organisational structure is led by the board of directors whose direction is implemented by the Centre Manager supported by three other part time members of staff.

Trustees' Responsibilities

Law applicable to incorporated charities in England and Wales requires the trustees, who are also the directors of the company, to prepare the financial statements for each financial period which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of its financial activities during the year then ended. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:

select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP (FRS102)

make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and

prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.

The trustees are responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011 and the Companies Act 2006. They have general responsibility for taking such steps as are reasonably open to them to safeguard the assets of the charity and to prevent and detect fraud and other irregularities.

Disclosure of Information

So far as each trustee at the date of approval of this report is aware:

There is no relevant financial information of which the company's independent examiner is unaware: and the trustees have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant financial information and to establish that the independent examiner is aware of that information.

Independent Examination of accounts

As allowed under Part 8 of the Charities Act 2011 and Sections 145 and 152 of the Act, Trustees of smaller charities are allowed to opt for this simpler form of external scrutiny in place of audit.

The independent examination provides an external check on the accounts and can be carried out by any person with the relevant ability and experience.

The Trustees are delighted to have used the assistance provided by James Wheelan Accountancy Limited to undertake this important task.

This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.

Approved by order of the board of trustees and signed on its behalf by:

Report of the Independent Examiner For The Year Ended 30 June 2022

Independent Examiners report to the Trustees of Walton Park Indoor Football Centre

I report on the accounts for the year ended 30 June 2022 set out on pages seven to fifteen.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

As the charity’s trustees of the Company (who are also the directors of the company 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 for this year 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

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that

• the accounts do not comply with relevant accounting requirements under section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 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

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.
