OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Strategies for achieving objectives

Celtic Leisure ('the Company') is a non-profit distributing body registered as a charity. For the general public in the County Borough of Neath Port Talbot and its environs, the Company's objectives are to provide a range of services for recreation, cultural and leisure time occupation in the interests of social welfare; to advance the education of the public in leisure activities; and to promote and protect good health amongst the public by the encouragement of healthy lifestyles and participation in appropriate leisure and cultural activities.

Celtic Leisure is legally independent of the Council, although its objectives have been established to reflect those of the Council, with which it works in partnership to ensure that the leisure centres, swimming pools and Gwyn Hall make a full contribution towards achieving the objectives of the community plan.

The Company relies on both a management fee from the Council and income from activities charged to users of the facilities to cover its operating costs. Affordability and access to these facilities is important and is reflected in the Company's pricing policy.

Activities undertaken to achieve objectives

In the financial year ending March 2024, Celtic Leisure operated multiple leisure centres and swimming pools, a performing arts centre, a seasonal seafront activity and a couple of bowls venues.

Our activities are summarised below and are undertaken to further our charitable purposes for community benefit.

Advancement of Education, Culture, Arts & Heritage By: - providing the opportunity for children to be confident and proficient in water, through the provision of a structured learn to swim programme - providing the opportunity for local children to learn to swim in an encouraging environment, by working in close association with Neath Port Talbot schools. - providing a wide range of live events and films at the Gwyn Hall, to suit all tastes - providing the opportunity for local amateur societies to perform in a professional venue. - providing regular on stage live music performances - providing a local facility for conferences and meetings - providing a venue for frequent screenings of National Theatre Live performances - providing a professional venue for local dance schools to both rehearse and perform live on stage - promoting the use of the Welsh language in the Arts through live stage performances aimed at younger children - providing a social and wellbeing provision by presenting recurring monthly quiz nights promoting cinematic themes - providing a venue to host children's art exhibitions, by working with local schools.

Achievement and performance

Fundraising activities

Celtic Leisure's fundraising activities throughout the financial year included sourcing funds through the range of available grants which in 2024 totaled £99,814 (2023: £47,716)

Financial review

Results

The Company continued facing a number of challenges in the financial year which had made it return a deficit of £257,958 (2023: £630,000 deficit) before defined benefit pension remeasurement adjustment for the year ended 31 March 2024. After considering actuarial gains of the Pension Fund (£280,000), the net movement of funds resulted in a surplus of £22,042.

The Company continues to target the External Income growth with 2024 results of £5,602,331 being 26% higher than in the prior year (2023: £4,125,260).

The challenges resulting from the adverse external factors and market conditions have been addressed by further enforcement of the ongoing partnership with NPTCBC as well as employment of consultancy services.

Reserves policy

The Company's reserves as at 31 March 2024 before accounting for any asset/liability from the Company's defined benefit pension scheme amounted to £458,113 (2023: £396,071).

However, after accounting for the Company's defined benefit pension scheme gains the net unrestricted funds totalled £778,113 (2023: £756,071 ).

In agreement with the Charity Commission's guideline, Celtic Leisure retains desired levels of reserves, exceeding £400,000, excluding the defined benefit pension scheme impact.

The Company has a favorable working capital provision, with a vast majority of its income being paid in advance of expenditure. The Company proactively monitors the levels of desired reserves with tools and strategies such us robust forecasting, corporate planning, maximization of income streams, portfolio expansion and market and competition monitoring.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Policies adopted for the induction and training of Trustees

It is Celtic Leisure's intention to make its Trustees aware of their duties and responsibilities as Trustees of the Charity. It is also our intention that as and when those legal responsibilities change the Trustees will be made aware of any such changes. In the future Trustees recruited to the Board will undergo an induction day and will meet key personnel during this session.

Key management remuneration

The arrangements for setting pay and remuneration of key management personnel is linked to the general staff pay award as agreed with Union Representatives. Consideration is given to the National Joint Council Pay Award for Local Government during these negotiations, and subject to affordability are ratified by the Board of Trustees.

Related party relationships

Two of our Trustees were appointed from our staff team and receive remuneration for their work with the charity. Any connection between a Trustee or senior manager of the Charity with a supplier or company who undertakes a service for the Charity must be disclosed to the full board of Trustees in the same way as any other contractual relationship with a related party. The trustees encourage members of staff to take on the role of trusteeship on behalf of the Charity.

Risk management

The Trustees review risk management across the year in their Board meetings:

During 2023/24, the risk register was overhauled to include the proximity of the risks to the organisation as it gets closer to the end of the contract period, but also a review of the risks in relation to insourcing to Neath Port Talbot County Borough Council (NPTCBC). Discussions were had in relation to potential job losses at the Tata Steelworks and ways to mitigate this risk on memberships.

CL has been fortunate during 2023/24 to still have in place the indemnity agreement with NPTCBC which has continued to support the business as it continues to recover from the Covid pandemic.

Trustees' indemnities

Celtic Leisure currently provide for Trustee indemnity.

Engagement with employees and employment of individuals with a disability

The policy of Celtic Leisure is to consult and discuss with employees on matters likely to affect employees' interests.

Information on matters of concern to employees is given through such means as briefing meetings, notice boards and announcements through the companies Sage HR app.

Celtic Leisure is a disability confident organisation and continues to be part of the government's Disability Confident Employer Scheme offering employment opportunities to individuals with a disability provided they meet the shortlisting criteria.

Remuneration of Key Management Personnel

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF CELTIC LEISURE

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Celtic Leisure (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 31 March 2024 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, 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 (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

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 Auditors' 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 charitable company'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 Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon.

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.

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 this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. 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.

Prior year Audit by Another Auditor

The financial statements of the Charitable Company for the period ended 31 March 2023 were audited by another auditor who expressed an unmodified opinion. We have reviewed the predecessor auditor's report and considered its implications on the current year's financial statements.

Page 8

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF CELTIC LEISURE

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Report of the Trustees.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) 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 charitable company'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 charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Page 9

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF CELTIC LEISURE

Our 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 a Report of the Independent Auditors 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.

The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

Extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud

We identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the Financial Statements, whether due to fraud or error, and then, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, including obtaining audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

We discussed our audit independence complying with the Revised Ethical Standard 2019 with the engagement team members whilst planning the audit and continually monitored our independence throughout the process.

Identifying and assessing potential risks related to irregularities.

In identifying and assessing risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, our procedures included the following:

Audit response to risks identified

We also communicated relevant identified laws and regulations and potential fraud risks to all engagement team members and remained alert to any indications of fraud or non-compliance with laws and regulations throughout the audit.

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 Report of the Independent Auditors.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors' 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 charitable company and the charitable company's members 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 2024

1. CHARITY INFORMATION

Celtic Leisure is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Aberavon Leisure and Fitness Centre, Princess Margaret Way, Port Talbot, Wales, SA12 6QW.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

Going concern

In October 2024, the Local Authority held a cabinet meeting to make a decision regarding future of indoor leisure services. The current contract between Celtic Leisure and Neath Port Talbot County Borough Council is due to expire in Mar 2025 therefore a recommendation was put forward by NPTCBC to extend the contract by a further 5 years. The extension was agreed in principle by the Board. The formal legal agreement will not be signed until early 2025.

Should the contract not be legally signed, the current contract will run until 31 March 2025, where Celtic Leisure will be taken in-house by Neath Port Talbot County Borough Council.

Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the application of the charity's accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.

Pension asset

The Company has obligations to pay pension benefits to certain employees. The cost of these benefits and the present value of the asset or liability depend upon a number of factors, including life expectancy, salary increases, asset valuations and the discount rate on corporate bonds. Management estimates these factors in determining the net pension asset or liability in the balance sheet, as well as the appropriateness of the recognition of any asset. The assumptions reflect historical experience and current trends. When a scheme has surplus the asset to be recognised is calculated at the lower of the surplus in the defined benefit plan and the asset ceiling. The asset ceiling is the higher of the economic benefit that could be achieved from a refund of surplus on exiting the Fund, and the economic benefit from payment of future service contributions to the Fund below future expected Current Service Costs.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and the receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

Income from grants is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. Income from grants is deferred only when the terms and conditions of the grant permit the income to be deferred to future periods.

Certain income is received in advance of the provision of the relevant seNice and as such is deferred until he service commences.

The management fee is an unrestricted fund which is available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charitable company. The income is invoiced and recognised in the period to which it relates.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset's use.

Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice.

Expenditure on charitable activities which further the Charitable company's objectives, as well as any associated support costs. All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.

Employee benefits

The costs of short-term employee benefits are recognised as a liability and an expense, unless those costs are required to be recognised as part of the cost of stock or fixed assets.

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee's seNices are received.

Expenditure

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the company is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

The company participates in a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions to the scheme are charged to the profit and loss account as they fall due

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

Leasehold improvements Over the life of the lease Plant and machinery 20% straight line or over the remainder of the council contract

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.

Impairment of fixed assets

At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss.

Stocks

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.

Taxation

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.

Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the company has a present obligation (legal and constructive) resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

Financial instruments

The charitable company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 'Basic Financial Instruments' and Section 12 'Other Financial Instruments Issues' of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the company's balance sheet when the company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

Impairment of financial assets

Financial assets, other than those held at fair value through profit and loss, are assessed for indicators of impairment at each reporting end date.

Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows have been affected. The impairment loss is recognised in profit or loss.

If there is a decrease in the impairment loss arising from an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the impairment is reversed. The reversal is such that the current carrying amount does not exceed what the carrying amount would have been, had the impairment not previously been recognised. The impairment reversal is recognised in profit or loss.

Derecognition of financial assets

Financial assets are derecognised only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or are settled, or when the company transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership to another entity.

Basic financial liabllltles

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors, bank loans, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
