## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES**
The Trustees have pleasure in presenting their annual report, incorporating the directors’ report, for the purposes of the Charities Act 2011 and Sections 415 to 419 of the Companies Act 2006, together with the accounts for the year ended 30 September 2021. The Trustees have adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” (FRS 102) in preparing the annual report and financial statements of the Charity.
## **STRUCTURE GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT**
The Queen’s Club Foundation is a charitable company, incorporated on 19 February 2015 (registered company number 09449213) governed by a Memorandum of Association and registered as a charity 28 October 2015 (registered charity number 1164144).
The Foundation is the Official Charity of The Queen’s Club and is supported by The Queen’s Club Board, staff and Members. The Board, in pursuit of its objectives is pleased with the progress it has made considering the ongoing impact of the Covid- 19 pandemic on its activities.
The Trustees (listed on page 1) are Trustees of the Charity and Members & Directors of the Company. Trustees are appointed by an ordinary resolution of the member Trustees of the Charity and as set out in the Articles of Association.
When considering new Trustees, the Board has regard to the requirement for any specialist skills, for example past experience in organising charitable events and fundraising skill set, as well as past experience in serving similar charities. New Trustees undergo a brief on: their legal obligations under charity and company law, the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit, and inform them of the content and access to the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the committee and decision-making processes, the business plan and recent financial performance of the Charity.
## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES**
The main objects of the Charity, as defined in the Governing Documents, are:
_For the public benefit the promotion of community participation, especially among children and young people, in healthy recreation in particular in the sports of lawn tennis, real tennis, squash and rackets (the Sports) and to assist in the development of the skills of those playing the Sports in such ways as are exclusively charitable according to the laws of England and Wales as the Trustees think fit, including but not limited to, by:_
_1. Providing grants to other charities that promote community participation in the sports; and_
_2. Providing grants and other financial assistance to or for the benefit of children and young people in need of such assistance, to allow them to participate in one or more of the Sports_
In determining the activities to be undertaken by the Charity in furtherance of these objects, the Trustees have given regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit. The QCF safeguarding policy has been placed on the QCF website and grantees are informed of the policy. The Foundation requires that all organisations that receive grants have a safeguarding policy.
## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE Grant Funding:**
Our grant giving programme was heavily disrupted by the government restrictions caused by Covid. Even after the restrictions began to lift in the Spring many of our grantees were forced to adapt their projects to adjust to the new challenges they were presented with, including how to keep participants Covid safe.
## **Organisational Grant Funding:**
We supported a number of organisations this year in furtherance of our objectives. During the government restrictions in winter 2020 we supported two disability organisations. The need for these activities was vital at this difficult time with many disabled people experiencing isolation. Participants experienced benefits to their mental and physical health via connecting to a group of like-minded people, relieving them from isolation and bringing structure to their week. One participant commented **:** _**“I think you’re doing a wonderful job... It’s a troubling time for everyone but these sessions are great for connecting us all. The sessions are informative, fun and in my opinion you’re doing great at accommodating various standards of players, thank you!”**_

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES**
In recognition of our work supporting Disability Tennis during the pandemic we were awarded the LTA Middlesex County British Tennis Disability Award 2020. John Love, from Middlesex Tennis, presented the award by saying: _**“The Queen’s Club Foundation have been responsive, showing a willingness to fund innovative and creative projects during 2020 and support a range of organisations working in partnership to support play and new activity ideas.”**_
We won the Award for supporting 3 key projects over the past year: All three projects had inclusion at the core; the funding supported players with physical disabilities, visually impaired players and people with complex mental health conditions.
Once restrictions had started to lift in Spring 2021 we held two grant funding rounds in May and August. The focus was on supporting activities which could make an immediate positive impact on people’s well-being after the lockdown. The grants were spread across organisations and individuals. Grants supported widening community participation in tennis and squash with a focus on school aged children and widening participation amongst those with a disability and/ or with mental health issues, as well as those from disadvantaged backgrounds.
As we come out of Covid we will be able to conclude, deliver and review the grants which were delayed or have yet to start because of restrictions.
## **The QCF Community Club:**
We funded the QCF Community Tennis Club which ran this Year for 9 weeks at Virgin Active, Normand Park, providing vital physical activity for children after a period of inactivity. This was a continuation of our satellite community club, which benefits the local community. Relaunching the Community Tennis Club in May 2021, enabled us to have a positive impact in our local community after a difficult period. The sessions were held at Normand Park due to the Tournament build at The Queen’s Club. It took place on Sunday mornings for primary school aged children who attend state schools in Hammersmith and Fulham.
In September, we re-started the Community Club. This takes place at a satellite venue at Bishop’s Park. As part of this project we introduced online booking via the new QCF Community Club Clubspark coaching account. This has modernised the whole booking process and has enabled quick and easy booking for interested children and also provided us with the data we require in terms of the numbers of those who have participated.
We also restarted and expanded our community squash programme at Queen’s for local primary schools. 4 local schools brought either 1 or 2 classes to The Queen’s Club for lessons. The programme will run from September 21 to April 2022 providing 115 children a combined total of 176 hours of squash lessons. We had positive feedback from this project with teachers commenting that children’s behaviour and overall schoolwork has improved.
## **Individual grants:**
We provided funding support to eleven new individual players. The grants were awarded to be used for equipment, coaching, entering and travelling to tournaments. While some of these players already received funding from other sources, many did not. All of them demonstrated a real need for the extra support.
The majority of these funds have not been utilised in this financial year due to the grantees being unable to participate in tournaments, but now tournaments have reopened and grantees are playing again, these grants are being used for the purposes they were given and the Charity has received positive feedback about the impact of our grant giving
## **Our Fundraising and Marketing:**
With the country under heavy government restrictions from November 2020 to March 2021 opportunities for fundraising events were extremely limited. The Mustique Trophy in April, which was intended to raise funds jointly

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES**
(both for the QCF and for the UK Friends of the Mustique Charitable Trust) was once again cancelled due to Covid concerns, while the City Tennis Tournament in September was unable to take place due to a building project at The Queen’s Club.
In December 2020 we were able, however, to host an online Christmas Bazaar which was promoted via our website and marketed to subscribers to our customer database via mailchimp emails.
The Cinch Championships took place in June at The Queen’s Club, but was run at a reduced capacity of 25%. Despite this reduced capacity. the Charity still raised £10,000 at the event. Following the tournament the Charity were very grateful to The Queen’s Club for agreeing to host the Centre Court Ballot for a 2[nd] year running, offering Queen’s members the chance to play on Centre Court, which also raised income for the Charity.
One of the key fundraising strategies for this last year was to look at increasing our income from Charitable Foundations and we were very grateful we received a number of donations which helped us during this difficult year. We intend to look at expanding this area of our income in the future.
We performed a review and refresh of our website which included installing Google Analytics to monitor site performance and an opportunity for people to sign up for our newsletter. We also continued to promote our work on social media, and further increased our social media following and engagement.
We conducted some market research amongst the Queen’s membership to learn how we can better market the Charity to The Queen’s Club membership. We will continue this ongoing programme of work which we will assist to communicate clearly the objectives of the QCF and grow our support within the club.
## **Our Resources:**
During the Covid crisis the QCF looked at all of its internal processes. We took steps to evaluate and modernise, as well as ensuring our safeguarding policies and internal training were kept up to date.
In August we began the process of recruiting potential new Trustees. We aim to further expand the skill set of the Trustee board and seek to improve the diversity of the Board.
## **FINANCIAL REVIEW**
## Summary
||**Oct 2019-Sept 2020**|**Oct 2020-Sept 2021**|
|---|---|---|
|**INCOME**|**£48,541**|**£129,769**|
|**EXPENDITURE**|**£62,134**|**£73,857**|
|**NET INCOME/(EXPENDITURE)**|**(£13,593)**|**£55,912**|
The financial performance of the Foundation has been very strong for the year ended September 30[th] 2021 despite the significant impact of COVID. The Foundation has produced a record gross income of £129,769 and was able to increase significantly its grant income over the prior years. QCF benefited from a significant number of large one-off transactions, which more than compensated for a number of in person membership fundraising events that had to be cancelled due to the restrictions of the pandemic. The income included government grants of £7,535 for the Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme.
Despite the negative impact of Covid, the Foundation was particularly pleased to increase slightly its overall expenditures on charitable activities versus the prior years. However, a number of organisations and individuals that had been awarded grants were unable to make use of them as activities were suspended. This has resulted in a significant increase in current liabilities of grants outstanding versus the prior year.

UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2021
## **THE QUEEN’S CLUB FOUNDATION**
## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES**
As a result, the deficit for Y/E Sept 2020 has been reversed and the Foundation generated a significant net income of over £55,000. Given the strong income, the liquidity position of the Foundation has also increased substantially by 50% from £115,000 to over £190,000. The strong cash reserves could make it possible for the Foundation to maintain or potentially increase its grant giving over the next few years. The significant increase in income was however, dependent on large one-off donations which will be difficult to replicate. The Foundation is therefore reviewing its fundraising strategy to become more sustainable, long term. The Board’s prudent approach to deploying funds within the Foundation ensured that the Foundation had ample reserves to continue to operate during a difficult period for fundraising caused by Covid-19.
At the balance sheet date the Charity’s total funds amounted to £154,110 with restricted funds totalling £65,388 and free reserves of £88,722 (2020: £82,101).
## **PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS**
- Our strategy for this year is to “Re Set” after the difficult Covid period. We will be focussing on establishing the QCF more visibly as the Official Charity of the Queen’s Club. We will be looking to expand our partnerships and ensure that the Charity continues to have a sustainable future. We hope to restart some of our face-to-face fundraising events, although the build at the Club will still limit us to some extent this year in that respect. We will also be exploring opportunities to create new, sustainable income streams. We will continue to develop our relationships with trusts, foundations and donors.
With the QCF now supporting a large number of grants our increased focus will be on reviewing, adapting, monitoring and evaluating the grants. We will also be promoting the impact of our grants delivered more effectively.
We are focusing heavily this Year on our new Community Club. Following the huge success of the new programme at Bishop’s Park, we are looking to identify a second venue in a different area within the Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham. We will be working closely with the LTA and the Council in order to identify where there is most need for the new satellite Community Club venue. Our intention is to provide each child aged 6-8 in Hammersmith and Fulham with a readily accessible opportunity to experience tennis in a fun and safe environment. We will be encouraging young people from all genders and backgrounds and measuring the impact of their overall wellness and sporting development, increased confidence, discipline and other life skills.
The QCF is reviewing its Objectives. The Queen’s Club is introducing padel to The Queen’s Club and the Trustees will consider whether all sports played at Queen’s should be part of our remit, eliminating the current restriction on us that could exclude a new racket sport in the future. The Foundation is also reviewing the length of Trustee terms.
We will be looking to recruit volunteers in 2022 to assist with the administration of the Charity and to develop and expand the Charity.
This Year we are looking to build on existing partnerships and to create new ones in order to support the valuable work of our Charity improving lives through racket sports. After the difficulties presented by the Pandemic, we will be driving our fundraising strategy in order that we can build sustainable income streams to support our delivery. We intend to continue to embed the Charity within the culture of the Queen’s Club in order that members can feel proud of the work we do and see how in particular, the local community is benefiting from the outreach work we deliver.

UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2021
## **THE QUEEN'S CLUB FOUNDATION**
## **ACCOUNTING POLICIES**
## **General information, scope and basis of the financial statements**
The Queen's Club Foundation is an incorporated charity, limited by guarantee, incorporated in England with the company number 09449213. In the event of the Charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the Charity. The address of the registered office is given in the Charity information page of these financial statements. The nature of the Charity’s operations and principal activities are outlined in the Report of the Trustees.
The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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 issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain items at fair value. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £.
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.
## **Cash flow statement**
The Charity has applied Update Bulletin 1 as published on 2 February 2016 and does not include a statement of cash flows on the grounds that it is applying FRS 102 Section 1A.
## **Incoming resources**
All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when the Charity is legally entitled to the income after any performance conditions have been met, the amount can be measured reliably, and it is probable that the income will be received.
For donations to be recognised the Charity will have been notified of the amounts and the settlement date in writing. If there are conditions attached to the donation and this requires a level of performance before entitlement can be obtained then income is deferred until those conditions are fully met or the fulfilment of those conditions is within the control of the Charity and it is probable that they will be fulfilled.
Donated facilities and donated professional services are recognised in income at their fair value when their economic benefit is probable, it can be measured reliably and the charity has control over the item. Fair value is determined on the basis of the value of the gift to the Charity. For example the amount the Charity would be willing to pay in the open market for such facilities and services. A corresponding amount is recognised in expenditure.
Income from trading activities includes income earned from fundraising events and trading activities to raise funds for the Charity. Income is received in exchange for supplying goods and services in order to raise funds and is recognised when entitlement has occurred.
Investment income is earned through holding assets for investment purposes such as shares. It includes dividends and interest. Where it is not practicable to identify investment management costs incurred within a scheme with reasonable accuracy the investment income is reported net of these costs. It is included when the amount can be measured reliably. Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method and dividend and rent income is recognised as the Charity’s right to receive payment is established.
The charity receives government grants in respect of Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme receipts to cover part of the salary costs of furloughed staff. Income from government and other grants are recognised at fair value when the charity has entitlement after any performance conditions have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2021
## **THE QUEEN'S CLUB FOUNDATION**
## **ACCOUNTING POLICIES**
## **Resources expended**
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Expenditure is recognised where there is a legal or constructive obligation to make payments to third parties, it is probable that the settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. It is categorised under the following expenditure headings:
- Raising funds; includes the costs of organising events and other costs of fundraising
- Charitable activities; includes grants to third parties and the costs of administering the Charity inclusive of governance costs.
Grants payable to third parties are within the charitable objectives. Where unconditional grants are offered, this is accrued as soon as the recipient is notified of the grant, as this gives rise to a reasonable expectation that the recipient will receive the grants. Where grants are conditional relating to performance then the grant is only accrued when any unfulfilled conditions are outside of the control of the Charity.
Support costs are those that assist the work of the Charity but do not directly represent charitable activities and include office costs, governance costs, administrative payroll costs. They are incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the Charity. Where support costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to cost of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities on a basis consistent with use of the resources. The analysis of these costs is included in Note 6.
## **VAT**
The Charity is not registered for VAT and is unable to recover VAT incurred. On this basis costs are recorded inclusive of VAT within the Statement of Financial Activities.
## **Taxation**
The Charity is considered to pass the tests set out in sections 466 to 493 Corporation Tax Act 2010 (CTA 2010), as such no income tax is payable on the Charity's activities.
## **Debtors receivable and creditors payable within one year**
Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in expenditure.
## **Cash and cash equivalents**
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value. In addition, it includes cash at bank and in hand and cash balances within the investment portfolio available for investment transaction purposes.
## **Fund accounting**
Unrestricted general funds are incoming resources receivable or generated for use in furtherance of the general objects of the Charity without restriction.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Charity for particular purposes. The cost of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial
## **Going concern**
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the Trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The Trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the Charity to be able to continue as a going concern.
