the charity’s organisational structure and any wider network with which the charity works;
relationship with any related parties;
trustees’ consideration of major risks and the system and procedures to manage them.

Trustees are selected based on the skills that they have which would be useful for the Charity. The Charity has identified training courses for trustees and is going to cover key areas of charity law at each trustee’s meeting in the year ahead.

The trustees have considered and implemented actions needed to deal with new Data Protection legislation.

The trustees have a regularly updated Conflicts of Interest Policy.

The Charity utilises the Essential Trustees Guide as a basis for training.

Section C Objectives and activities

Summary of the objects of the charity set out in its governing document

To promote community participation in healthy recreation (including cricket coaching). To advance education including social and physical training related to cricket at Queen’s Park in Chesterfield.

To advance education for the public benefit by increasing public learning and knowledge about the history and heritage of cricket in Queen’s Park, Chesterfield.

Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)

It is confirmed that the trustees have had regard to the Charity Commission’s public benefit guidance when exercising any powers or duties to which the guidance is relevant.

The accounts show a reduced level of income and expenditure in the 2020/21 year as, of course, we had no Chesterfield Festival of Cricket. This in turn has meant that we were less able to attract new members and so membership subscriptions are reduced on the previous year from £3,892 to £3,467. We are able to claim tax back from HM Government via the gift aid scheme on membership subscriptions and donations. Two year's claims were made in this year and so the claim is higher than might be expected. We were also able to claim gift aid on the bucket collection at the 2019 Festival.

Although expenditure in the year was very low, that was before we purchased the new cricket covers for Queen's Park at a cost of £2,443 shortly after the year end. That expenditure will appear in the next accounts.

Our bank balance at the end of April 2021 was a healthy £11,702 and as trustees we are keeping an eye on the progress out of the Covid pandemic, with a view to providing further financial support, as soon as possible, to projects and cricket events, which can further our mission to support the development of cricket locally.

Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)

You may choose to include further statements, where relevant, about:

policy on grantmaking;
policy programme related investment;
contribution made by volunteers.

March 2012

The charity’s policy on grant making is driven by its charitable objects and the outcomes are reviewed at trustee’s meetings.

Section E Financial review

March 2012

TAR

Brief statement of the charity’s policy on reserves

As we do not employ staff or purchase equipment for ourselves that would need replacement, reserves are kept at a minimum. The charity’s intention is to ensure expenditure is kept under tight control so as not to exceed the incoming resources of the charity. A contingency reserve is always maintained.

Details of any funds materially in deficit

Further financial review details (Optional information)

You may choose to include additional information, where relevant about:

the charity’s principal sources of funds (including any fundraising);

Our major sources of income are membership subscriptions, corporate sponsorship, raffles and tombola at the Cricket Festival.
