Wensum Sports Centre Charitable Association 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

The charity is an association governed by a constitution and was registered with the Charity Commission  on 10[th] December 2012. The trustees were appointed by a general meeting held in November 2012. 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

To advance education and promote recreation and leisure activities through the provision of a sports and leisure centre for use by clubs, associations and individuals. The charity runs a sports centre which incorporates a sports hall, two squash courts and a multi-purpose community area. Various activities are promoted including squash ,badminton, football, handball ,short tennis ,table tennis, short matt bowls, dance, art workshop and many other community activities. 

The trustees have considered the Charity Commission`s guidance on public benefit. They confirm that in planning and carrying out the Trust`s activities they have had regard to this guidance, 

## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE** 

For the year ended 31[st] March 2021 the charity recorded a surplus before depreciation of £4,948. After the depreciation charge on capitalised expenditure there was a recorded loss of £16,193.This was after incurring costs of £2,916 for ongoing repairs and renewals to improve facilities for members and capitalised expenses of £9,480 on structural improvements and equipment. This included air conditioning units in the main sports hall. The new and extended gymnasium has been particularly successful and added a new dimension to all the services offered to members. 

As advised previously a trading subsidiary of the charity has been created in the form of a limited company to handle income from car parking. This company donated £23,944 to the charity during the course of the year. 

On the 23[rd] March 2020 the centre was closed to all members in line with Government policy to protect the UK population from the COVID-19 pandemic. All furloughed staff were laid off on full pay and a small committee of trustees and volunteers set up to deal with any staff or infrastructure issues. Action has also been taken to request deferment of fixed costs where possible and apply for financial assistance where the charity qualifies for such assistance. Although the centre was allowed to re-open for a limited period there were quite severe restrictions on sports activities which impacted on our turnover compared with the previous year. Our reserves policy set out below together with the financial actions that we have taken have enabled the charity to get through a very difficult period and we look forward to a return to some form of normality in the near future. 

Finally I would like to thank our staff and volunteers for all their hard work over the year. 

## **RESERVES POLICY** 

The trustees have agreed that their aim would be to retain sufficient reserves to meet all contractual liabilities and any unexpected costs. The Charity aims to have sufficient funds to cover 6 months normal running costs, which is approximately £30,000. 

## **DECLARATION** 

The trustees declare that they have approved the trustees` report above. 

Signed on behalf of the Trustees
