The Trustees present their report and the financial statements for the period ended 31 December 2023.

Administrative Information
The names of the Trustees and their advisors during the period, together with the principal address, are shown on page 1.
Constitution
The Charity is constituted as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (“CIO”) under the Constitution dated 13 July 2015.
The CIO was registered by the Charity Commission on 21 July 2015.
Trustees
The Trustees during the period and their initial term of appointment are as follows:
- Roy Moorby 6 years - Ann Moorby 5 years - Wayne Chalkley 4 years - Julie Chalkley 3 years
Method of Election of Trustees
Apart from the first Charity Trustees, every appointed Trustee must be appointed for a term of 3 years by a resolution passed by a properly convened meeting of the Charity Trustees. In selecting individuals for appointment as Charity Trustees, the Charity Trustees must have regard to the skills, knowledge and experience needed for the effective administration of the CIO.
Objectives
The primary purpose of the Charity is to provide or support recreational and leisure time activities for young people living in the Sharlston and Streethouse areas of Wakefield and to help develop their skills, capacities and capabilities to enable them to participate in society as mature and responsible individuals. The Trustees confirm that they have considered the guidance provided by the Charity Commission on public benefit when reviewing the Charity’s objectives and activities.
The Trustees raise funds through donations and fundraising events at such times as they encounter deserving organisations whom they feel obliged to help. As such, it is not foreseen that the Charity will creative significant cash reserves.
The Trustees meet annually and at other times as may be necessary to consider the finances of the Charity and to discuss donations.
Achievements and Performances
The Charity continues to have regard to its primary purpose. The Charity has identified a number of local organisations during the period which it will assist during 2024. No administrative costs have been incurred.

TRUSTEES’ REPORT (continued)
for the period ended 31 December 2023
Risk Assessment
The Trustees do not consider the Charity is subject to any substantial risks beyond the liabilities disclosed in the financial statements.
Financial Review

Plans for the Future
It is the Charity’s intention to continue working with local organisations identified as requiring specific financial help.
Trustees’ Responsibilities
The Trust Deed requires the Trustees to prepare annual accounts. Generally accepted accounting principles require these accounts to:
-
be prepared on the basis of suitable accounting policies which are consistently applied
-
include reasonable and prudent judgements and estimates
-
follow applicable accounting standards and the Charities SORP; disclosing and explaining any departures in the financial statements; and
-
prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to assume that the Charity will continue in operation.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records which are such to disclose, with reasonable accuracy, the financial position of the Charity at any time, and to enable them as Trustees to ensure that the financial statements comply with Charity law. The Trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the Charity’s assets, and hence for taking reasonable steps to the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
