ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE The financial year from I st July 2024 to 30th June 2025 marked the sixth year of operdtion of the Blackheath Rugby Charitable Trust.

The National Cricket League and other clubs on an ad hoc basis during the week and at weekends. The faciliiies are also being used by Blackheaih Rugby for our 6-1 l year olds plus from September through to the end of April. FINANCIAL REVIEW During this accounting period. BRCT received donations of £19,93Q for specific use in relation to the provision of a oaching programme in local prirnary and secondary schools. This programme is being managed by Habib Annous and a team of coaches on behalf of BRCT and has been a great success. The programme has delivered rugby coaching to over 3,500 children in the local area during this period. We also generated income from renting out pitch use of £53,417 which is a small increase in comparison lo the previous year. Expenditure for the year was £5,100 less than income, though fractionally more when the tractor grant of £7.300 is excluded. This is largely due to further and Continuing investrnent in the ground. Reserves In ￿tUre years, it is the intention of the tNstees to maintain a positive balance on unrestricted fijnds of at least £ l 0,000 to cover emergency situations requiring exp¢nditure that may aris¢ from time to lime. Volunteers We would like to thank all of our volunteers who work so hard maintaining our facilities for use by the local community. STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT The charity is controlled by it5 governing document, and constitutes an unincorporated charity.
