THE CHARTERED INSTITUTE FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF SPORT AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY
TRUSTEES’ REPORT
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
The Trustees present their annual report together with the audited financial statements of the Chartered Institute for the Management of Sport and Physical Activity (the Institute) for the year ended 31 March 2021. The Trustees confirm that the annual report and financial statements of the Institute comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the Institute's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice: "Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland (FRS102)" second edition effective from January 2019.
The Institute is also known by the acronym CIMSPA.
Our Purposes and Activities
Policies and objectives
The purposes of the Institute as set out in its Charter are:
(a) to promote and advance public health by encouraging active participation in sport or other healthy recreation for the public benefit; and
(b) to promote for the public benefit the safety of facilities and services provided for active participation in sport or healthy recreation
in particular (but not exclusively) by:
(i) promoting excellence in the management and development of such facilities and services including sporting and recreational events and sports tourism.
(ii) advancing education, practical training and the dissemination of knowledge amongst practitioners employed or engaged in the provision of such facilities and services.
(iii) carrying out or promoting research into and promoting awareness and understanding of the health and other benefits of well managed sport and recreation facilities and services.
CIMSPA seeks to achieve these purposes through the mechanisms of defining and promoting standards in best practice, customer care, education and professional development amongst its membership as engaged in the sport and physical sector and more widely through the key stakeholders, organisations, employees and volunteers operating in the sector.
Through these mechanisms CIMSPA aims to be a unifying voice, driving sector growth and accredited to develop the workforce of tomorrow, providing opportunities for young leaders to develop and succeed, and providing leadership on the development and management of career pathways.
Public benefit
The Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Commission in determining the activities undertaken by the Charity.
The Charity Commission in its “Charities and Public Benefit” Guidance states that there are two key principles to be met in order to show that an organisation’s aims are for the public benefit: firstly, there must be an identifiable benefit and secondly, that the benefit must be to the public or a section of the public. The Trustees are satisfied that the aims and objectives of the charity, and the activities reported on below to achieve those aims, meet these principles.

THE CHARTERED INSTITUTE FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF SPORT AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY
TRUSTEES’ REPORT (continued)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
CIMSPA’s achievements in support of our charitable objectives are set out below, together with plans for next year for further development of our services and encouragement of increasing standards within the sector, through which, we in turn, increase quality of service for the public benefit.
Any surpluses generated are invested to increase the Institute’s ability to deliver services more effectively and further develop our charitable aims.
Strategies for achieving objectives
Between 2018/19 and 2020/21, CIMSPA has managed to establish a solid foundation both financially and strategically. The investment from Sport England has allowed CIMSPA to undergo rapid growth and have grown our staffing numbers from 15 to 44. We have also improved our overall business operational effectiveness through investment into our digital infrastructure, business operations and people development.
Our achievements and impact over the past 5 years have given us the strategic authority as the lead agency in the UK for the sport & physical activity workforce. The need to transform our workforce into a recognised and respected profession has been accepted by large swathes of our sector and has gathered significant momentum.
The next three years will be focused on solidifying our internal foundations, engaging, and influencing the whole of our sector and systemising our work so it becomes the new normal. This journey aligns to the strategic direction and timescales of Sport England, UK Sport and Sport Scotland and the investment and influence that these organisations bring to our work.
The past two years have also given us a much clearer understanding of our role and core functions. As an organisation our work splits (with some overlap) into two key areas:
-
Member & Partner Services
-
a. Growing individual membership through the provision of a clear value proposition and growth into new markets
-
b. Recognising individuals professional status within the sector through CIMSPA membership categories (e.g. Chartered Member, student, graduate)
-
c. Growing employer partnership through the provision of business support services and growth into new markets
-
d. Evolution of our education provider network to support the delivery of local skills plans e. Recognition of education products meeting the sector agreed CIMSPA professional standards
-
f. Leading CIMSPA’s financial sustainability
-
Sector Workforce Governance: This relates to the structure, processes and systems that shape accountability, effectiveness and excellence of workforce patterns, practice and actions. This is an overarching function encompassing much of CIMSPA’s current work around standards, policy, quality assurance and education endorsement. It has a sector wide focus on transforming how the sector recruits, trains, deploys, supports and manages its workforce. This work will deliver on the recommendations and findings from the workforce governance project that has identified the size and scale of the issues facing the sector in this space.
2
THE CHARTERED INSTITUTE FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF SPORT AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY
TRUSTEES’ REPORT (continued)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
Both functions will be underpinned by a robust and comprehensive engagement and influencing strategy. To manage transformation on this scale will require us to engage across the whole sector, across the whole of the UK and ensure we also include all stakeholders including employers of all sizes, education partners, sector partners, self-employed and individual members of the workforce and importantly the general public.
This work will be delivered within the context of economic recovery and rebuilding of the sector which will undoubtedly be a complex challenge but also yields an opportunity as the sector takes the opportunity to reflect and focus on where it can have the most significant impact. It will identify changes needed to ensure we rebuild an engaged accessible, diverse, well-governed sector, that will provide a better future for everyone working in sport and physical activity.
Our new strategy sets out the following strategic outcomes;
By 2024 we will have developed a sector wide single system of professional standards, career map and associated workforce policies which has been embraced and adopted by the sector.
By 2024 we will have an accessible, relevant, and clearly defined structure for delivering workforce training and education that develops skills by responding to local health, social and economic needs and meets local skills demand.
By 2024 we will be the sector’s regulatory body, protecting the integrity of the sector and supporting its recognition as a profession.
By 2024 we will provide membership services to individuals in specific occupations across all parts of our sector, including those occupations that do not currently have a recognised “home” and wish to be recognised by the sector’s Chartered Institute.
By 2024 we will provide partnerships services to a range of organisations across the whole of our sector to support with workforce and educational development.
By 2024 we will have the ability to communicate and influence all stakeholders in our sector to include:
-
Participants / Consumers
-
Individual members of the workforce
-
Employers
-
Education Partners
-
Sector Partners
-
Local and National Government
By 2024 we will be seen as an exemplar organisation within the sector regarding our people, governance, digital capabilities and financial sustainability.

Achievements and performance
Significant charitable activities undertaken
The Institute’s significant charitable activities fall into two main categories:
Memberships and Partnerships – extending the reach of the Institute and sector alignment with our aims and objectives through the mechanism of increasing active memberships and formal organisational partnerships.
Through our employer relationships, CPD events and social media we seek to demonstrate the value of membership to those working in the sector, demonstrating the career pathway available to them and the support for this pathway we can facilitate. This increases our influence in the sector and the ongoing development of its services to the public.
Goods and services – promotion and expansion in the Institute’s range of endorsed qualifications, training courses and guidance materials available to support members’ CPD requirements and opportunities, and the development of best practice in the sector generally, in support of our aims and objectives.
We partner with higher and further education, awarding organisations and training providers to formally recognise courses and qualifications relevant to those in the sector, and to ensure these are of a high standard. We partner with experts in the field to provide best practice guidance to the sector through our publications and guidance. Through the development of the sector workforce, we are able to improve the quality of its services to the public over time.

THE CHARTERED INSTITUTE FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF SPORT AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY
TRUSTEES’ REPORT (continued)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
Investment policy and performance
The Trustees’ policy for investment of surplus funds is to invest for the longer term (10 years plus), whilst providing a sustainable level of income from the portfolio combined with the prospect of growth in both capital and income. The investment objective is therefore based upon a total Return Strategy. This is subject to moderate risk, delegating day to day investment decisions to appointed fund managers, in accordance with their powers under the Institute’s Charter. Following advice from Barclays Wealth, the appointed fund managers, the investments were transferred to Barclays Charity Fund – Discretionary portfolio in February 2017. The Fund set the objective of achieving a sustainable income stream and the potential to maintain the purchasing power of the portfolio. This incorporated an income yield target of 3.5%. The overall return is benchmarked against a basket of various wellestablished investment assets and indices.
Fund performance to the end of March 2021 has been variable with a positive upturn during the year following the negative return in 2019/20 caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. This years positive return resulted in an increase in value of the fund to £210,945 at the end of the year (20120 - £171,556). The realised and unrealised gains and losses arising in the year are shown in the Statement of Financial Activities.
Development expenditure
The Institute continues to develop its digital capability seeking state of the art CRM systems through which it seeks to enhance member and customer services, including member self-service, product ordering, payments, and member insights. Once fully enabled, this will benefit the Institute’s appeal to members and customers and its cost efficiency in the future.
Factors affecting achievement and performance
The desirability of membership is dependent upon the perceived value of the Institute’s services and upon employer organisations to promote and encourage membership as part of their workforce development.
The established trend of historical, age and employment-related attrition, of around 9-10% per annum continues to offset the Institute’s target to increase overall membership.
The prevailing pressure on operators’ own funding continues to influence the pace of promotion of membership and appetite for training and development opportunities by sector organisations.
Financial review
The Institute achieved an operating surplus of £15,421 in the year ended 31 March 2021 (31 December 2020: surplus of £278,597). The Institutes ambitions to develop its income streams were impacted upon the COVID-19 pandemic for the year just ended however, it is still a key objective along with controlling costs going forward.
Sport England has confirmed continuing support until at least April 2022, and in principle its openness to continuing support thereafter subject to CIMSPA’s performance.
The accumulated unrestricted funds at 31 March 2021 total £534,430 (31 March 2020: £0 / 519,009).
Principal sources of funding
CIMSPA generates income through its memberships, partnerships and those activities undertaken in support of its charitable objectives, including income from investments. CIMSPA’s 2020/21 activities

THE CHARTERED INSTITUTE FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF SPORT AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY
TRUSTEES’ REPORT (continued)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
continued to be significantly supported by Sport England. This grant funding helps to support investment into improved member services and facilities and sector changing guidance on standard as CIMSPA looks to raise the desirability and professionalism of the industry.
Principal risks and uncertainties
The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Institute is exposed, in particular those related to the operations, reputation, governance and regulatory matters, competitive environment and finances of the Institute, and are satisfied that systems and procedures are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.
The most significant risks identified by Trustees relates to;
-
Attainment of sustainable finances, through membership growth and endorsement incomes. In addition to inclusion in the risk register, this is monitored through monthly management accounts and reports on progress to the Board at every meeting. Expenditure budgets continue to be closely controlled, and additional expenditure not committed until funding is secured. Until membership attains critical mass, the Institute must continue to secure external funding in the short term.
-
Economic factors driven by the ongoing repercussions of COVID-19 and its impact on sector support and funding as well as workforce availability.
The Trustees mitigate risk in a number of ways;
-
Bring in independent risk and assurance experts to enhance the Audit and Probity Committee and further develop and advise on our processes and procedures.
-
Regular review of organisational reserve levels taking into consideration new income sources and new organisational strands.
-
Increase in membership through an enhanced and relevant member value proposition which will help to reduce organisational reliance on funding income.
-
Look at new income streams to further reduce reliance on funding income.
-
Be the visible voice of the sport and physical activity sector.
Responsibility for monitoring of risks and making recommendations on risk management matters has otherwise been delegated to the Audit & Probity Committee, which reports directly to the Trustees.
Reserves policy
Reserves are held to support the continuation and expansion of activities in support of CIMSPA's objectives. The policy is reviewed by Trustees on an annual basis and targets set for retention of surpluses for the following year’s budget. The current target is based upon building reserves to cover approximately 3 – 6 months of ongoing costs. The reserves target for the next 3 – 5 years is therefore between £400,000 and £800,000, achieved through the retention of annual surpluses.
Against this policy, CIMSPA’s free reserves are currently in surplus in the sum of £313,827(15 months to 31 March 2020 £318,367).
In overall terms unrestricted reserves currently stand at £534,340 (2020 - £519,009) after reflecting a surplus of £15,421 (2020 - £278,597). Such reserves include £6,203 (2020 - £14,261) represented by tangible and intangible fixed assets realisable only upon disposal.
The Institute continues its strategy to build reserves to target levels over the medium term.

Structure, governance, and management
Constitution
The Institute is registered as a charity in England. It is a charitable chartered body and was constituted under Royal Charter and Statutes on 5 October 2011.
CIMSPA’s Charter and Statutes provide governance to CIMSPA, its board and executive team. Derived from the sector legacy of ISRM, ISPAL and IMSPA, CIMSPA was created in 2012 and its Charter reflected the position of the sector at this time.
On the 12 June 2019, The Privy Council approved the current version of the CIMSPA Charter and Statutes which remains in place today.
Appointment of trustees
Using the annual skills matrix, the board analyses the current board composition, diversity, skills, behaviour, experience, and competency of the board members against the ability to undertake CIMSPA’s objects and current strategy. This exercise highlights skills shortages which helps inform recruitment needs.
Up to 9 Trustees may be appointed by the board in accordance with the provisions of the Statutes. Such appointments are made on the recommendations of the nominations committee following an open recruitment process, administered by the nominations committee, with final recommendations for appointment proposed to the board.
Up to 3 Trustees are elected by the membership at a general meeting. Members are circulated with invitations requesting nominations for elected board member positions which are vacant or will become vacant upon the retirement of a Trustee.
All board members serve terms of up to 3 years, after the 3 years, their position will be reviewed in accordance with the skills matrix, board composition and board diversity. The Chair and appointed members may be offered the option of a 3-year extension. A maximum of 3 terms of 3 year’s may be served. In cases of elected members, they will be eligible to re-stand for election, for further terms of 3 years, with a maximum of 3 terms served.
Trustee induction and training
During April 2020 – March 2021 there were no new appointed or elected board trustees, Malcolm McPhail was re-elected as a board trustee by CIMSPA’s membership.
All new trustees, both appointed and elected, are taken through a robust and tailored induction process. This incorporates introductions to the Chair of the Board, the CEO, trustees or committee members and the appropriate executive team member. It is delivered by CIMSPA’s retained legal professional, the CEO and governance team who provide a bespoke induction to CIMSPA as a Royal Chartered Institute, a Charity and an organisation governed by the Sport England and UK Sport, Code for Sport Governance. It discloses and informs inductees of their personal and collective responsibilities, their roles, code of conduct and all operational and strategic requirements they need to be aware of, prior to starting their role. Training needs are assessed on an annual basis and recorded as part of the annual personal development plan process. Training needs are then reviewed and actioned by the people development team.

Board Skills Analysis (Summer 2020)
Skills Matrix – Heat Map
About
The CIMSPA board skills matrix is a bespoke analysis tool, designed by CIMSPA, to give a holistic view towards CIMSPA’s current talent and development areas, whilst supporting the future proofing of the board to ensure CIMSPA can continue with its strategic success. The assessment adopted a 360˚ feedback methodology, to support gaining greater insight whilst enabling an averaging of skills through a peer review observation process.
Purpose
The results from the skills analysis will give a holistic view towards our current talent and development areas, whilst supporting us in future proofing the board by identifying current strengths, latent demand and skills gaps to create a development plan that supports the individuals and CIMSPA’s needs, along with informing future recruitment of board members and succession planning. The aim of the overall analysis is to ensure that CIMSPA has ‘all bases covered’, when it comes to the skills it deems as essential to its success and make recommendations for remedial action where this is not achieved.
Overview
The skills heat map covers 9 areas: governance, industry, charter and statutes, vision and mission, finance, IT, marketing, human resources (HR) / learning and development (L&D) and commercial.
The core skills heat map covers 4 areas: behaviours, CIMSPA behaviours, values, and people skills.
Collectively the areas are broken down into 84 criteria that are mapped against a 5-point scoring scale which asked if the board member had demonstrated each stated skill/behaviour during the past 12 months board meetings. The scores were allocated based on each of the following points:
-
No evidence demonstrated
-
Little or some evidence demonstrated
-
Competent level of evidence demonstrated
-
Significant level of evidence demonstrated
-
Extensive evidence demonstrated
Limitations
The self-assessment nature of this process can often be subjective, with board members potentially over or under evaluating their own performance. This must be taken into consideration as the results detailed within this report compare the individual score against those of their peers. In obtaining a greater insight into the level of impact, board members will discuss their potential subjectivity during their PDP’s.
A second potential limitation is that results are based on the board members ability to demonstrate such described skills and behaviours during board meetings. It should be considered that the opportunity to demonstrate these areas may not have presented themselves to each of the board members during the past 12 months. Further discussion during PDP’s will also aid understanding the impact of this limitation.

Overview
There are two circular heat map representations of the 84 criteria. These are titled skills matrix and core skills.
Each of the 10 individual board members self-assessment scores were combined to create an individual’s collective average score (out of 5) for the skills matrix and core skills heat maps.
Each board member had a peer review average (taken from the results of the chair, treasurer, and board peer results), the 10 peer averages have created an overall average for the skills matrix and core skills heat maps which are detailed below:

TRUSTEES’ REPORT (continued)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
The postponed board development day from 2019/2020 was held on 4 March 2020. The board development session for 2020/2021 took place on 16 December 2020.
Governance
The Trustees are legally responsible for the governance and management of the Institute.
During the 4th March 2020 board development day, the board created a pledge which outlines the following;
As the Board, our role is to drive and support CIMSPA with passion, enthusiasm, balance, and integrity.
We do this by:
-
being accountable for the strategic direction of the organisation;
-
aligning our decision-making to the Vision, Mission and Strategic Aims as they evolve;
-
taking a proportionate dynamic approach to governance and risk; and
-
always recognising and advocating for what is best for the sector now and in the future.
-
To do this we believe all Board Members should:
-
be bold, courageous and respectful in the questions we ask and the decisions we make;
-
be inclusive in their behaviours and considerations;
-
be prepared and 100% present in meetings;
-
seek self-improvement; and
-
be agile and open-minded and deliver what we say we will do.
To do this we need:
-
relevant, accurate and timely information from the executive team which best leverages the expertise of the Board;
-
an open and collaborative relationship between the Executive and the Board; and
-
a strong and collaborative relationship between the Chair and CEO.
Management
The Trustees are accountable for the strategic direction, governance and risks associated with the Institute. The Trustees are assisted in their strategic and management responsibilities by the following standing committees:
-
Audit & Probity Committee;
-
Nominations Committee;
-
Membership Committee
-
Disciplinary Committee;
-
Remuneration Committee;
-
Professional Development Board
-
Finance Committee
-
Youth Panel

THE CHARTERED INSTITUTE FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF SPORT AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY
TRUSTEES’ REPORT (continued)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
A new Finance Committee with the remit to undertake work relating to the integrity, monitoring of CIMSPA’s financial statements and announcements relating to its financial performance, reporting judgements on these publications and providing advice to the board on matters relating to CIMSPA’s financial position, performance, business model and strategy was developed during this time frame.
The Youth Panel continue to support CIMSPA’s governance structure and whilst they do not have delegated authority from the board, they act in the capacity of youth representatives to ensure that CIMSPA’s governance reflects the authentic youth voice. A Youth Panel representative attends board meetings (non-voting capacity, by invitation) and provides updates on the panel’s activities and offers insight during board discussions. A Youth Panel representative is also trialling attending the Audit and Probity Committee to feed in the same youth perspective to other areas of CIMSPA’s governance.
The roles and responsibilities of each committee are set out in more detail in specific Terms of Reference approved by the Trustees, all of the CIMSPA committee and panels Terms of Reference has been reviewed and updated during the year ended 31 March 2021.
Authority to conduct the day-to-day operations of the Institute is delegated by the Trustees to the Chief Executive and their staff, working within the context of the approved strategic and operational plan and budget. The Chief Executive is responsible for the implementation of policies and strategies as determined by the Trustees.
Remuneration of Key Management Personnel
The Trustees consider the Board of Trustees and the senior leadership team (Chief Executive Officer, Director of Strategy, Director of Finance and Resources and the Director of Client Services) comprise the key management personnel of the Institute in charge of directing and controlling, running and operating the Institute on a day-to-day basis. Apart from the Chairman, the Trustees give of their time freely and no other Trustee received any remuneration in the year. The Board acknowledges the role of Chair requires a high level of support and commitment from the Chair and Trustees therefore decided to offer an appropriate remuneration package, which was approved by the Charities Commission.
The Chief Executive Officer is responsible for reviewing the remuneration of other key management personnel within the bounds of the overall budget approved by the Board. The Chair has responsibility for the setting and monitoring of the Chief Executive Officer’s performance targets, upon which potential additional earnings are based. This is then considered by the Remuneration Committee.

Trustees' responsibilities statement
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charitable Institute and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the Charitable Institute 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 in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgments 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;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charity’s transactions, disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the charity’s constitution. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charitable Institute and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE CHARTERED INSTITUTE FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF SPORT AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of The Chartered Institute for the Management of Sport and Physical Activity for the year ended 31 March 2021 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activity, the Balance Sheet, the Cash Flow Statement and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion, the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the Institute’s affairs as at 31 March 2021 and of the Institute’s net
-
movement in funds, including the income and expenditure, for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice;
and
- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.
Basis for opinion
We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder. We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the [group/charity]'s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other information
The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Trustees' Report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
18
AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE CHARTERED INSTITUTE FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF SPORT AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY (continued)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charites (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
adequate accounting records have not been kept by the charity; or
-
the charity financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
certain disclosures of Trustees’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of trustees for the financial statements
As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out on page 16, the trustees 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 trustees 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 charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s 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 auditor’s 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 are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
19
AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE CHARTERED INSTITUTE FOR THE MANAGEMENT OF SPORT AND PHYSICAL ACTIVITY (continued)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
Based on our understanding of the charity and the environment in which it operates, we identified that the principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations related to its Royal Charter and Bye Laws and those standard to UK charitable membership bodies, 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 Charities Act 2011, corporation tax, payroll tax and sales tax.
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 posting inappropriate journal entries to revenue and management bias in accounting estimates. Audit procedures performed by the engagement team included:
-
Inspecting correspondence with regulators and tax authorities;
-
Discussions with management including consideration of known or suspected instances of non-compliance
-
with laws and regulation and fraud;
-
Evaluating management’s controls designed to prevent and detect irregularities;
-
Identifying and testing journals, in particular journal entries posted with unusual account combinations,
-
postings by unusual users or with unusual descriptions;
-
Challenging assumptions and judgements made by management in their critical accounting estimates;
and
-
Agreeing the validity of recognised receivables on a sample basis and challenging the recoverability
-
assumptions, further assessing for any fraud or bias
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the charity’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and regulations made under section 154 of that Act. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity's trustees 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 charity’s trustees as a body for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:
1.1 Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.
The Institute meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS102. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investments which are included at market value.
1.2 Preparation of accounts on a going concern basis
Following their assessment of the current position, future forecasts and funding opportunities the Trustees are satisfied that the Institute continues to be a going concern and the financial statements have been prepared on this basis. Formal documentation reflecting the grant award from Sport England referred to in the Trustees Report is expected to be signed in the next month. In addition to this the cashflow forecast for the 12 months hence has been prepared on a prudent basis and shows no liquidity issues forecast. The organisation also benefits from receipt of its grant monies being received upfront of the funded activity spend. All forecasts and cashflows have been reviewed and updated in light of the COVID-19 pandemic.
1.3 Legal status of the Institute
The Institute is a registered charity in England and Wales and a chartered body constituted under Royal Charter and Statutes in the United Kingdom, whose registered office and primary place of business is at SportPark Loughborough University, 3 Oakwood Drive, Loughborough, Leicestershire LE11 3QF. It has no share capital. Its principal activities are to promote professional development of its membership and of the sector more widely, through the facilitation of high quality development opportunities aligned to its professional development framework.
1.4 Fund accounting
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Institute and which have not been designated for other purposes.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or grant-making bodies, or funds which have been raised by the Institute for particular purposes. The cost of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
1.5 Income
All income is included in the statement of financial activities when the Institute is entitled to the income, receipt is probable and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. Income is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and value added tax. Our major sources of income are recognised as follows:
Membership and partnership – subscriptions are recognised on an accruals basis in accordance with the subscription period applicable, with amounts related to unexpired subscription periods being deferred to the future period.
Sale of goods and services – income is recognised at the point of despatch of goods or delivery of services in accordance with the terms of the applicable contract.
Grants receivable (performance related) – grant incomes are recognised at the time and to the extent that the activity required by the funding agreement has been completed and expenditure incurred. Grant received in excess of the amount so recognised is deferred to the future period, with additional grant receivable forming part of accrued income.
1.6 Expenditure
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been included under expense categories that aggregate all costs for allocation to activities. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular activities they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of the resources
1.7 Apportionment of costs between activities
Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the Institute but are not directly raising funds or charitable activities. Support costs include governance costs, staff costs, back office costs, legal and professional costs, insurance and financing costs. Governance costs are those incurred in connection with administration of the Institute and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements.
These costs have been allocated between the Institute’s primary cost headings firstly through identifications of any component costs specific to such headings, and thereafter on the basis set out in note 10 to the accounts.
1.8[Significant judgements and estimates]
Preparation of the financial statements may require management to make significant judgements and estimates.
There are no significant judgements or estimates having a material effect on the financial statements.

1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
1.9 Fixed assets, amortisation and depreciation
All assets costing more than £500 are capitalised with the exception of those purchased with time restricted funding. Those assets are written down at purchase.
Intangible fixed assets are stated at cost less amortisation, and tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Amortisation/depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:
Intangible assets: Software licenses: 3 - 5 years straight line Tangible assets: Computer equipment: 2 - 5 years straight line Fixtures and fittings: 10 years straight line
In determining the useful life of tangible assets, consideration is given to historic experience of wear and tear on the assets concerned. For intangible assets, technological advances are such that a useful life of 5 years is considered appropriate in most cases, limited to the minimum licence period if less than 5 years.
Impairment reviews
A review for impairment of fixed assets is carried out annually, and further, where events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the fixed asset may otherwise be overstated. Such events or changes in circumstances include changes in useful life arising from changes in business activities or environment, significant decline in an asset’s market value during the period, or evidence of obsolescence or physical damage to the asset. Impairment losses arising are charged to the statement of financial activities.
Where the impairment is subsequently reduced or removed the carrying value is reinstated to the lower of the revised value or the amount at which it would have been carried had no impairment occurred, the amount of impairment released being credited to the statement of financial activities.
1.10 Investments
Investments are stated at market value at the balance sheet date. The statement of financial activities includes the net gains and losses arising on revaluations and disposals throughout the year.
1.11 Operating leases
Rentals under operating leases are charged to the statement of financial activities on a straight line basis over the lease term. Benefits received and receivable as an incentive to sign an operating lease are recognised on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
1.12 Financial Instruments
The Institute only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently at their settlement value at the balance sheet date.

1.13 Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving stocks.
1.14 Debtors
Trade and other debtors are measured at transaction price, less any impairment. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
1.15 Creditors
Short term trade creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other financial liabilities, including bank loans, are measured initially at fair value.
1.16 Pensions
The pension costs charged in the financial statements comprise the contributions payable by the Institute during the year for two defined contribution personal pension plans for staff. The Institute contributes up to a maximum of 6% and 10% respectively of an employee’s eligible pay for those employees having such plans.
