## **Structure, governance and management** 

The charity is constituted as a company limited by guarantee and is governed by its memorandum and articles of association. Trustees are appointed at annual general meetings of the company and are also appointed as directors. The company is run by a committee of no more than 10 people and this committee is overseen by the trustees. 

## **Objectives and activities** 

The charity’s core objective is: 

to preserve, enhance and promote the historic resource of the sea pool at Summerleaze Beach, Bude, Cornwall as an amenity for the benefit, health and enjoyment of the community and visitors to the town. 

In practice, this means that we manage, maintain and, where possible, improve the Bude Sea Pool. Since we took over responsibility for the pool from Cornwall County Council in 2011 on a 99-year lease, we have worked to ensure that the pool provides a safe, open access and free of charge environment for swimming and related activities for use by residents and visitors. 

## **Achievements during the year** 

The charity continues to undertake its annual maintenance programme on the pool to dredge the pool and carry out any repairs and maintenance 



required. The charity also provides rental of beach huts at the pool and these are subject to regular maintenance. 

The charity has a very strong team of volunteers, who carry out maintenance at the pool, particularly during the winter season where the impact of stormy weather can be significant. Volunteers also support our fundraising efforts by manning stalls at community events to sell merchandise and promote sale of subscriptions. Merchandise, subscriptions, donations and local business sponsorships are our key methods of fundraising. 

We also have a strong staff team, managing the charity’s office and all associated activities, managing pool activities, merchandise and volunteers. 

We continue to be a key part of the Bude community, working with local businesses to promote events and bring visitors to the Bude area. 

## **Financial review** 

The accounts for the year ended 31 October 2022 report total assets of £324,776. Profit for the year was £121,598 and this included a legacy of £109,000. Total costs were £141,983 compared with £74,631 for the previous year. A large proportion of the increase relates to staff costs, where the charity has found it necessary to increase its staff team and staff hours worked in order to meet the demands placed on the charity by the current business environment. The charity’s merchandise sales increased however year on year, from £82,241 to £101,343 and therefore the increased costs include a higher cost of sales than in the previous year. 

## **Future plans** 

The trustees are in the process of reviewing and updating, where necessary, the memorandum and articles of association. In addition, a review of the charity’s strategic plan is due to commence shortly, which will cover the period November 2023 to October 2026. 

The trustees have committed that the pool will remain open to the public free of charge for the foreseeable future.

## **Trustees:** 

Paul Tilzey Mark Matthews Martyn Holehouse Sarah Moore

Cambridge & Counties Bank, Charnwood Court, New Walk, Leicester, LE1 6TE. Barclays Bank, Leicester, Leicestershire, LE87 2BB. 

CAF Bank Ltd. 25 Kings Hill Avenue, Kings Hill, West Malling, Kent ME19 4JQ Co-operative Bank plc, PO Box 250, Skelmersdale, WN8 6WT 

## **Structure Governance and Management** 

The charity is constituted as a Company Limited by Guarantee and governed by the memorandum and articles of association. Trustees are appointed at General Meetings of the Company. The running of the company is by a committee of no more than 10 people elected at General Meetings of the Company. The Trustees oversee this committee. 

## **Objectives and Activities:** 

The company's principal activity is the maintaining of the historical sea pool on Summerleaze Beach, Bude. In practice this means that we manage, maintain and, where possible improve Bude Sea Pool (BSP). Since we took over responsibility for the pool in 2011 on a 99-year lease from Cornwall County Council our Trustees, Committee members, paid employees, volunteers, and sponsors have worked together to ensure that BSP provides a safe, open access, free of charge environment for swimming and related activities for the use of local residents and visitors alike. In 2011 the company took over the responsibility of the pool from Cornwall Council and contracted for significant improvement work to be undertaken. 

2 



## **Achievements and Performance** 

We have delivered tangible and enduring improvements to the pool and its associated amenities while ensuring that regular essential maintenance is completed to a yearly schedule. This has entailed us conducting an energetic and imaginative fund-raising operation, backed by a successful campaign to raise awareness of BSP's importance to Bude and the BSP's visibility at both local and national levels. BSP is an asset to the town and contributes to pulling in revenue to local businesses. Pool use, and recognition of the BSP's importance to the leisure economy of Bude that is generated through social media feedback, has increased year on year. BSP is frequently a top-rated visitor attraction on TripAdvisor. We are well-regarded and respected in the local area – we continue to receive the support of many local businesses, and in addition to the many businesses which have been long term supporters in the past year we have received support from:- 

Aspects Holidays, Stay in Cornwall, Finns Solicitors, Falcon Hotel, Bude Golf Club, Campsites co uk, Country Interiors, Edgcumbe Hotel, Elite West Holidays, HBH Woolacotts, Red Post Joinery, Trewin Design, Jo Downs Launceston, Penhalt Farm, Spencer Thorn, Tamar Vets, Wooda Farm, Lifes a Beach, Wroes. 

We have also responded positively to the changes in the environment in which we operate, both regulatory, financial and more broadly as Bude develops as a year-round holiday destination, and, just as importantly, we have always looked ahead and sought to be proactive in developing BSP in ways that will secure its long-term future as an amenity for the local community and visitors alike, whilst retaining its natural and open aspects 

## **Financial Review:** 

As at 31st October 2022 the charity had reserves of £327,973 (period to October 2021: £203,178). The charities income has increased by £155,227 to £328,042 (period to October 2021: £172,815).  Expenditure has increased by £106,038 to £206,444 (period to October 2021: £100,406). 

No charge is made for the use of the pool. It is free to use all year round. Our main income year on year is derived from membership fees with further income, particularly over the summer holiday months, coming from the sale of BSP merchandise, beach hut and deck chair hire, visitor donations and most recently, a Visitor Giving scheme. We are fortunate to have ongoing sponsorship from a range of local and national businesses. Their regular support makes a substantial contribution to costly recurring pool maintenance tasks and provides additional advertising for Bude and the pool. In addition, and where our plans and projects require substantial capital funding, we have made successful bids for grants. The past year has seen a substantial rise in the sale of merchandise, as a result of both locals and visitors supporting the charity by spending in the shop. 

3 



In the year ended 31 October 2022 our total income of £328,042 was made up as follows: 


**----- Start of picture text -----**<br>
Beach Huts Hire £18,542 5.65%<br>Collection Tins £9,011 2.75%<br>Corporate Membership £15,829 4.83%<br>Donations  £16,537 5.04%<br>Fundraising £10,155 3.10%<br>Gift Aid £11,617 3.54%<br>Grants £5,200 1.59%<br>Legacies £108,088 32.95%<br>Interest receivable £947 0.29%<br>Membership  £30,773 9.38%<br>Merchandise £101,343 30.88%<br>Storage<br>£328,042 100.00%<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br>


## **Future Plans:** 

Our website is being updated to be more accessible and informative. We continue to research new products to sell in the shop, ensuring that they fit with our objectives of being manufactured sustainably and locally where possible. We also plan fundraising events to support BSP but also ensure that we contribute to and remain part of the Bude community. 

The trustees have updated the strategic plan for the sea pool and it covers 1 April 2020 to 31 March 2025. The plan is published on the sea pool website.  The plan includes the work and development for the plan period and looks forward to the 100th anniversary in 2030 of the construction and opening of the sea pool. The plan remains for the sea pool to remain open to the public free of charge for the foreseeable future.

We have also responded positively to the changes in the environment in which we operate, both regulatory, financial and more broadly as Bude develops as a year-round holiday destination, and, just as importantly, we have always looked ahead and sought to be proactive in developing BSP in ways that will secure its long-term future as an amenity for the local community and visitors alike, whilst retaining its natural and open aspects 

## **Financial Review:** 

As at 31st October 2022 the charity had reserves of £327,973 (period to October 2021: £203,178). The charities income has increased by £155,227 to £328,042 (period to October 2021: £172,815).  Expenditure has increased by £106,038 to £206,444 (period to October 2021: £100,406). 

No charge is made for the use of the pool. It is free to use all year round. Our main income year on year is derived from membership fees with further income, particularly over the summer holiday months, coming from the sale of BSP merchandise, beach hut and deck chair hire, visitor donations and most recently, a Visitor Giving scheme. We are fortunate to have ongoing sponsorship from a range of local and national businesses. Their regular support makes a substantial contribution to costly recurring pool maintenance tasks and provides additional advertising for Bude and the pool. In addition, and where our plans and projects require substantial capital funding, we have made successful bids for grants. The past year has seen a substantial rise in the sale of merchandise, as a result of both locals and visitors supporting the charity by spending in the shop.

## **Future Plans:** 

Our website is being updated to be more accessible and informative. We continue to research new products to sell in the shop, ensuring that they fit with our objectives of being manufactured sustainably and locally where possible. We also plan fundraising events to support BSP but also ensure that we contribute to and remain part of the Bude community. 

The trustees have updated the strategic plan for the sea pool and it covers 1 April 2020 to 31 March 2025. The plan is published on the sea pool website.  The plan includes the work and development for the plan period and looks forward to the 100th anniversary in 2030 of the construction and opening of the sea pool. The plan remains for the sea pool to remain open to the public free of charge for the foreseeable future.
