## **STATUS AND ADMINISTRATION** 

**LUTTERWORTH ATHLETIC FC** as an entity was formed in 1993 from three members of Lutterworth juniors  and  youth FC; Terry Waterfield – Michael English & Stephen Rendell. In 1995 the two clubs amalgamated with the sole intention of growing the club and finding a site where all teams could play – train and meet socially. 

In 2012 after extensive negotiation the then Chairman Michael English negotiated the lease to relocate the entire club to      the now premises at Hall Park, Hall Lane, Lutterworth LE17 4LN. To-date the club have invested heavily in making the facility one of the best in the midlands and continues to grow the membership. The longer terms aim are to expand the facility to allow diversity across all sectors: Better provision for the disabled – the elderly – youth groups through enhanced education.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MAY 2020** 

## **ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURE** 

Lutterworth Athletic FC’s charity is administered by 2 Trustees, one appointed at point of formation and one appointed after a former Trustees resignation. The Trustees utilize the service of the club treasurer on as 'as required' basis. Both the club and the charity are managed by the elected committee for which the Chairman Michael English is Trustee. The Trustees are confident with the way in which both the club and the charity are run, and the advice given to members. Trustees expenses are covered by themselves. 

## **OBJECTS** 

Subject to payment of normal expenses the Charity applies its income to the continued growth and development of the facility and its membership. Most of our Charities income is derived from sponsorship, membership and donations. 

## **RISK ASSESSMENT** 

Any changes in legislation regarding our club and charity are advised to us by our governing body. 

## **REPORT AND VALUATION** 

The properties/facility are all leased on a 30-year agreement. There is NO proposal for any change in this or how it is reported.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS' REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF** 

## **LUTTERWORTH ATHLETIC FC** 

## **RESERVES** 

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

It has not been the policy of the Charity to accumulate significant unrestricted funds, as it is the aim of the Charity to distribute & invest monies for the benefit of the members and to enhance and improve the facility. However, the Trustees are very aware of the need to retain a certain amount of money to meet the needs of urgent repairs or re-development of     any area to maintain a reserve for working capital requirements. All surplus funds have, over the years, been reinvested and will continue to be so, when and if available. There are no restricted or designated funds. 

## **INVESTMENT POLICY** 

The trustee’s policy is to maintain the facility to the highest possible standard, thus providing consistent continuity. Any 

surplus is invested in new projects, repairs and maintenance to ensure the facility is kept to its optimum level. 

## **TRUSTEES EXPENSES** 

No expenses are currently allowed for in the budgets. Allowances will be made for large projects to raise funding for development work but subject to trustee agreement and NO more than 10% of money raised. 

## **TRUSTEES RESPONSIBILITIES** 

The club trustees are responsible for preparing a trustees' annual report and financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the charity trustees to prepare financial statements for each year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, of the charity for that period. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently 

- observe the methods and principles in the applicable charities SORP; 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent 

- state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business 

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the applicable Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations, and the provisions of the Trust deed. They are also 

responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and taking reasonable steps for the prevention of fraud and other irregularities. 

The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the charity and financial information included on the charity's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of the financial statements , may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. 

Approved by the trustees on 31[st ] JULY 2020 and signed on their behalf by: Mr M English Trustee

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS' REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF** 

## **LUTTERWORTH ATHLETIC FC** 

I report on the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 31 July 2020, which are set out on pages 5 to 11. 

## **RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF TRUSTEES AND EXAMINER** 

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the  2011 Act)  and  that an  independent examination is needed. The charity is preparing accrued accounts and I am qualified to undertake the examination being a qualified member of ICAEW. 

It is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; 

- to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and 

- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **BASIS OF INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented  with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or  disclosures  in the accounts,  and  seeking exp lanat io ns from you as trustees concerning any such  matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence  that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a true and fair view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. 

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S STATEMENT** 

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

- (I) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements: 

   - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and 

   - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting require ments of the 2011 Act 

have not been met; or 

- (2) to which, in my opinion , attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
