## **Trustees' Report** 

## **Achievements and performance** 

As a charity we feel this year we have continued to grow. Sales are slightly down on prior year, but we closed for a large refurbishment at the end of July, and had struggled with plant and equipment breakdowns during the year. 

We undertook a full barrier replacement, new plant, intensive equipment maintenance along with refurbishment of the building and toilets which you can see in our repairs & maintenance spend. The pad was removed, serviced and replaced. 

This has led to higher footfall in the following year since reopening, and higher customer satisfaction. 

Alongside our skate UK and learn to skate hockey courses, we have also our Ice Theatre Group, which allows the skaters to introduce performance and team work to their skating skills. They produce 2 performances a year open to the public. 

We have run a higher number of different skate camps across the year. This includes Hockey Camp, Summer development camp, alongside Mark Hanretty’s annual skate camp. We have also prepared for the first time in decades our first open competition which has brought other skaters to our rink to compete. 

Our figure skaters are increasing improving rapidly from the introduction of new coaches, and we are seeing a record number of skater performing in national competitions which has also seen the syncro team partnered with Hull ice Rink achieve British Champion Status. 

For Hockey, we continue to grow and expand our teams. We have had large progress in one of our rec teams and also with full day tournaments with other rec teams. 

Going forward, we are continuing to increase footfall, increase sales and strengthen our reserves. We are continuing to work with a number of specialists who have been an invaluable support over the years since we took ownership of the rink. We continue to work with ice rink specialists to ensure the longevity of our rink, and keep on top of the maintenance now the major refurbishment works have been done. 

Working with figure skating specialists to improve the training and support to the skaters and also working with the Hockey teams to improve the skating technique and promote the sport to increase their numbers. 

## **Financial review** 

## _**Policy on reserves**_ 

Reserves are currently in a surplus position of £69,782. Free reserves (excluding fixed assets) are £31,232 in surplus. The charity aims to build reserves to cover at least 3 month's of fixed costs. 



## **Grimsby Ice Rink** 

## **Trustees' Report** 

## **Going concern** 

The charity was heavily impacted by Covid-19 due to the closure of the rink and reduction in the number of sessions available for an extended period of time, which resulted in reserves falling into a deficit position. The reserves are now in a positive position which the charity has carried out the following activities to lift them out of a going concern basis: 

- We have introduced branded merchandise for example hoodies and water bottles, to try and add to our revenue. - We are working with the staff and advertising, and improving our social media presence, along with adding other platforms. 

- We are working with experienced coaches to make improvements. 

- We are applying for further grants which we can utilise to support the charity. 

- We have undertaken a large refurbishment to ensure the longevity of the rink. This has in turn improved the facility and improved footfall. 

At the time of sign off the charity is recording positive reserves. This trend is expected to continue over the next 12 months following the signing of these financial statements.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the trustees of Grimsby Ice Rink ('the Company')** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 August 2025. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity’s trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (‘the 2006 Act’). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner’s statement** 

Since Grimsby Ice Rink's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of Forrester Boyd, which is one of the listed bodies. 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of Grimsby Ice Rink as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view' which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or 

4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities [applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)]. 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 August 2025** 

## **1 Charity status** 

The charity is limited by guarantee, incorporated in United Kingdom, and consequently does not have share capital. Each of the trustees is liable to contribute an amount not exceeding £10 towards the assets of the charity in the event of liquidation. 

The address of its registered office is: 26 South St. Mary's Gate Grimsby North East Lincolnshire DN31 1LW 

## **2 Accounting policies** 

## **Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates** 

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. 

## **Statement of compliance** 

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 (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). They also comply with the Companies Act 2006 and Charities Act 2011. 

## **Basis of preparation** 

Grimsby Ice Rink meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes. 

The financial statements cover the individual entity, Grimsby Ice Rink. 

The financial statements are presented in sterling and rounded to the nearest pound. 

## **Going concern** 

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. 

The trustees assess whether the use of going concern is appropriate i.e. whether there are any material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The trustees make this assessment in respect of a period of one year from the date of approval of the financial statements. 

## **Income and endowments** 

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

Page 10 



## **Grimsby Ice Rink** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 August 2025** 

## _**Donations and legacies**_ 

Donations are recognised when the charity has been notified in writing of both the amount and settlement date. In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of performance by the charity before the charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the charity and it is probable that these conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period. 

## _**Grants receivable**_ 

Grants are recognised when the charity has an entitlement to the funds and any conditions linked to the grants have been met. Where performance conditions are attached to the grant and are yet to be met, the income is recognised as a liability and included on the balance sheet as deferred income to be released. 

## _**Deferred income**_ 

Deferred income represents amounts received for future periods and is released to incoming resources in the period for which, it has been received. Such income is only deferred when: 

- The donor specifies that the grant or donation must only be used in future accounting periods; or - The donor has imposed conditions which must be met before the charity has unconditional entitlement. 

## **Expenditure** 

All expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to that expenditure, it is probable settlement is required and the amount can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated to the applicable expenditure heading that aggregate similar costs to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources, with central staff costs allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use. Other support costs are allocated based on the spread of staff costs. 

## _**Raising funds**_ 

These are costs incurred in attracting voluntary income, the management of investments and those incurred in trading activities that raise funds. 

## _**Charitable activities**_ 

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them. 

## **Support costs** 

Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, for example, allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage. 

## **Governance costs** 

These include the costs attributable to the charity’s compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements, including finance, strategic management and trustees meetings and reimbursed expenses.

## **Grimsby Ice Rink** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 August 2025** 

## **Taxation** 

The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Individual fixed assets costing £500.00 or more are initially recorded at cost. 

## **Depreciation and amortisation** 

Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows: 

**Asset class** Office equipment Plant and machinery 

**Depreciation method and rate** 20% straight line 20% straight line / 33% straight line 

## **Trade debtors** 

Trade debtors are amounts due from customers for merchandise sold or services performed in the ordinary course of business. 

Trade debtors are recognised initially at the transaction price, less provision for impairment. A provision for the impairment of trade debtors is established when there is objective evidence that the charity will not be able to collect all amounts due according to the original terms of the receivables. 

## **Cash and cash equivalents** 

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits. 

## **Trade creditors** 

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of business from suppliers. Accounts payable are classified as current liabilities if the charity does not have an unconditional right, at the end of the reporting period, to defer settlement of the creditor for at least twelve months after the reporting date. If there is an unconditional right to defer settlement for at least twelve months after the reporting date, they are presented as non-current liabilities. 

Trade creditors are recognised at the transaction price. 

## **Fund structure** 

Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustees discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the charity. 

Restricted funds must only be used for a specific purpose.
