Basis of independent examiner's report My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair, view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. Independent Examiner's statement In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention to indicate that; accounting records have not been kept in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Att 2006. the accounts do not accord with such records: where accounts are prepared on an accruals basis, whether they fail to comply with relevant accounting requirements under settion 396 of the Companies Act 2006, or are not consistent with the Charities SORP (FR5102) any matter which the examiner believes should be drawn to the attention of the reader to gain a proper understanding of the accounts.

GREAT GRIMSBY ICE FAcfoRY TRusr Company Number: 07990488 Charity Number: 1146988 Report of the Board of Trustees (incorporating the Directors, Report) for the year ended 31 March 2025 THE KASBAH Good news this year is that the PSICA grant scheme has been extended, which is encouraging people to take on more buildings, Also, ABP'S engineers have completed a survey of all unoccupied buildings, and steps are being taken to gradually make them safe. Gorton Street will be closed during construction on the Ice Factory, so access to the Kasbah will be directly via Fish Dock Road, avoiding the security gate. This is to be a permanent change to the trafffic pattern, and should be in place by May 2025. There was another successful Heritage Open Day in September 2024, organised by ABP and Stella Jackson of NELC, and our buildings had over 700 visitors. PETERSON'S PROJECT Practical Completion was at last achieved in September 2024, and the remaining details such as the Evaluation Report and final grant claims submitted by December, as agreed. Also in September we held a formal launch of the project, which was attended by a small but very distinguished group of fundersi partners and stakeholders. Emilie Wales gave the welcoming address. In June 2024 Building 89 hosted a fringe event as part of Grimsby's Festival of the Sea. Artist Annabel Mccourt had taken four of the original chimney cowls from Peterson's and used them to make an interactive art work. Combined with some large scale paintings the exhibition was titled"Up In Smoke" It looked amazing in the ground floor space. On the same day, Heritage Lincolnshire were stationed in Peterson's, continuing the Oral History piece of the Activities. In September 2024, as part of the Heritage Open Day, another exhibition was staged in the ground floor of Building 89, of works by artist Sarah Webb, On the same day, visitors could see the results of the Oral History project, displayed as interattive boards on the doors of the smokehouses in Peterson's. Since Completion, the buildings have been listed for rent with Clark Weightman. Unfortunately we had not, by the end of this year, managed to secure tenants, although there continues to be serious interest in Building 89. Opportunities to secure a tenant for the smokehouse were lost due to the delays in the projert (caused not just by issues with the buildings, and contrattors, delays, but also by the necessity of finding significantly more funding after Brexit and Covid), and given the current situation within the smoking industry, prospects don t look very good. A meanwhile use would help by keeping the building occupied, but a condition of the NLHF grant was that the building continue to be used as a smokehouse. Therefore any change of plan would have to be permitted by NLHF, and I don't think we are quite there yet.

Trustees are mindful that the building is dated and may require significant modification in the longer term.
