HITCHIN RUGBY LIMITED (REGISTERED NUMBER: 09142406)

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022

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 31 March 2022. 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 promotion of community participation in healthy recreation in particular by the provision of facilities for the playing of rugby union primarily but without limitation for the benefit for the local communities of Hitchin, Stevenange and Letchworth.

Public benefit

The trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and in planning future activities.

Staff and Volunteers

The trustees fully appreciate the importance of volunteers to the efficient working of the charity.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Our primary goal as trustees for the 2021-22 season was to facilitate a full return to rugby at all levels after the disruption of the Covid pandemic .In terms of senior rugby, we improved the standard of the Men's coaching and supported the promotion of both the women's sides through a similar level of coaching .A substantial investment was made in new gymnasium equipment .Results on the field reflected this support, with the Men's 1 XV gaining promotion and the Women's 1 XV finishing mid table in Championship 2. The buoyant Mini & Youth section continued their good work, with a strong emphasis on the Girls 'age groups.

Once again we must thank our sponsors for their continued financial support. In April 2021 we received the "Sport England Grant" of £50,000 from the RFU Winter Survival Fund, to cover expenditure in the 6 months to 31 March 2021. This was a welcome addition to the club's funds at a difficult time.

Income and expenditure

The results for the year show an overall surplus of £49,147 (2021 surplus £10,472).

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Financial overview

As an overview, the charity received £312,084 (2021 £152,405) of income during the year and had outgoings totalling £262,937 (2021 £142,104) giving a surplus of £49,147 (2021 surplus £10,472). The funds carried forward are £235,853 (2021 £219,395) of unrestricted reserves and £418,762 (2021 £386,073) of restricted reserves.

Reserves policy

The charity's income, expenditure and funds for the year to 31 March 2022 are shown in the annexed financial statements. The basis of preparation of the annexed financial statements is in accordance with the governing documents and is set out in the notes.

FUTURE PLANS

We aim to improve recruitment of senior players, both through the pathway from the Mini & Youth section and from the local community. Work is in hand to improve our social media footprint as a recruitment tool.

Off the field, we will be searching for increased revenues from sponsorship, donations and fund raising. This we will use to offset the considerable increase in costs that will affect us in the coming months/years.

The charity faces a challenging time with increased pressure on playing resources because of success and infrastructure due to the deterioration of the older ex council pavilion buildings. Resolving these issues will require considerable funds that are not at present available to the charity.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF HITCHIN RUGBY LIMITED

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Hitchin Rugby Limited ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2022.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a registered member of FCA which is one of the listed bodies.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  2. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or

  3. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
