**Marlow Rowing Club** 

## **Report of the Trustees** 

## **for the Year Ended 30 September 2023** 

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 September 2023. 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 January 2019). 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Objectives and aims** 

The objectives are set out in the Memorandum of Association. Section 4 of the Charities Act 2011 requires the Trustees to  comply with their duty to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission in exercising their powers or duties. 

The Charity's objectives are: 

‐ the promotion of community participation in healthy recreation in particular by the provision of facilities for rowing sculling and other sports. 

‐ providing and assisting in providing facilities for sport, recreation or other leisure time occupation of such persons who have need for such facilities by reason of their youth, age, infirmity or disablement, poverty or social economic circumstances or for the public at large in the interests of social welfare and with the object of improving their conditions and life. 

‐ advancing the education of children and young people through such means as the directors think fit in accordance with the Charities Act 2011. 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Charitable activities** 

The Charity has been supported in its aim to build a "Water Sports Hub" by Sport England as well as many private donations from members past and present as well as from the wider community. The club previously operated through an unincorporated association, which was a Community Amateur Sports Association but not a charity. Marlow Rowing Club entered a new era on 1 April 2013 when, having acquired the assets and liabilities of the old unincorporated association, the Charity took over the operation of Marlow Rowing Club. 

As a charity, Marlow Rowing Club has newly defined objectives as set out above. As such, the club now has philanthropic ambitions and responsibilities which go beyond the objectives of the old unincorporated association. 

The Charity now owns the freehold site at Marlow Bridge Lane having paid the final instalment of during the 2019 year end. It has made a number of long term undertakings to Sport England under the agreement for funding of £1m. These include undertakings  to create a "Water Sports Hub", taking in a number of water sports in addition to rowing, increasing community use of the site and maximising participation in sport in and around Marlow. 

The Charity has undertaken to achieve Key Performance Indicators comprising numeric targets within a 5 year period. These  include increasing the number of participants in the various water sports using the Hub, increasing the number of participants with disabilities and increasing the number of total visits to the Hub. 

Taking the above aspects together, Marlow Rowing Club's remit now extends beyond meeting the needs of those already committed to rowing. Its task is to try and attract other potential participants so that they too can benefit from the facilities  offered by the Hub. 

A key aspect of trying to increase participation is to recognise that for some people, cost is a barrier. The Charity is committed to trying to remove or reduce any such barriers by not setting membership subscriptions and course fees at levels which seek to  fully cover the associated costs and by offering reduced fees or bursaries through the Chairmans' Fund in appropriate cases. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Reserves policy** 

The Trust's Unrestricted funds are held to ensure that ongoing project costs can be supported for the foreseeable future, and to provide income towards annual operating costs.

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial position** 

Income from member's subscriptions increased this year to £282k from £230k in the prior year, reflects the continued increase in the number of members over recent years. 

The club also runs a series of learn to row courses and team building events over the year as well as benefitting from the hire of its facilities. The club is well placed to meet the high demand for a wide range of courses. It has been particularly encouraging to see  a large proportion of the learn to row participants go on to become full and active members of the club at the conclusion of their course. 

The club, along with the wider economy, continues to face a broad number of inflationary pressures across its cost base. However, it tries to maintain membership subscriptions as low as possible to ensure participation is affordable to as many people as possible. 

The cub has a continuing need to continue to invest in our rowing fleet and equipment. The club has made investment in equipment of £41k during the year. As with previous years, this has been made from surplus funds and in line with the club's long‐term investment plan. 

The club relies significantly on fundraising to finance investment in new boats and equipment for members and expects to  increase investment spend as fundraising activities and reserves permit. During the year to September 2023, due to some energetic and inspirational fund‐raising efforts by members and a wide range of other supporters, fundraising activities generated £50k for the club which was promptly allocated for new boat purchases. 

In addition to cash income, the club continues to benefit from the generous donation of services free of charge by members. The value of these donated services in 2022/23 was £270k and the club could not survive without them. 

In a normal year, the club benefits from fund raising at both the Marlow Spring Regatta and Marlow Town Regatta. Unfortunately, due to adverse weather conditions, the Spring Regatta was cancelled but it was followed by a very well supported Town Regatta in July, which contributed £13k net of costs to the club's finances. 

The overall financial result for the year was an excess of expenditure over income of £137k. This result reflects the level of non‐discretionary expenditure inherent in the club's operations. However, available cash balances at the year‐end remain high  and the encouraging level of membership renewals for the 2023/24 year provides confidence in the continuing strength of the club's position. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Governing document** 

The charity is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association, and constitutes a company limited by guarantee, as  defined by the Companies Act 2006. 

## **Recruitment and appointment of new trustees** 

Trustees are appointed by the members of the company in accordance with the Memorandum and Articles of Association. 

## **Induction and training of new trustees** 

They are introduced with a full range of relevant guidance and appropriate information on their new responsibilities.
