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)	Another full year to March 2025 for United. This is our third year in the new dojo and we are still implementing more things for the benefit of our club members and local community. We have continued to take our monthly adaptive classes at the Club and have called upon the help of Ken Gibbons, Club Coach to cover these classes should Dave Quinn need to attend competitions. Thanks goes to Ken for his continued support. We started a female class in February 2024 and it continues to grow slowly. We felt that because of the number of girls we do have within the club setting this would be a great opportunity for them to focus on techniques. Although we have continued with this weekly class the numbers do fluctuate but it is felt that the nucleus of girls that do attend have and continue to gain confidence and expertise in their judo. We still have a visually impaired young lady who continues to attend and since being made redundant we have supported her in her efforts to continue to come along to club weekly by making no charge. The girls are eager to compete in their first competition so watch this space. We are still running three of our own friendly judo competitions and the take up has been great from not only our club but other invited clubs. This will continue as a very good fund raiser for the Club. We were holding just one toddler class but in view of the numbers that were requesting to come along we decided it was a good idea to open another class in the Bexley dojo and this has also taken off very well. We also decided to introduce our first toddler class in Dartford which had not taken off so well but we will continue to the end of the year to see if this picks up. Every year the London Youth Games is held and Dave Quinn is the Team Manager along with our coaches from the Club which aid in this very prestigious event. We take a team along of boys and girls and they compete against teams from other boroughs of London. Our boys and girls both gained bronze place out of 32 Boroughs. We have had a very exciting year with our awards for Dan grades within the Club. Chris gaining his 3rdDan as did Bill Sargent Jnr. 1stDans went to Nick Seymour, Billy Adams, Adrian Crucianel and Ghena Nitalea. 2ndDan went to Peter Fryer. We continue to participate in many competitions with the children and adults throughout the year from grassroots, county, national and international. We took a team of 26 players along with parents to France via Coach to visit Club Clementin which was a wonderful success and hopefully they will do a return visit to us. Watch this space. Chris Newman took gold in the British Veterans Championships this year. Scott Wilson competed in his first ever adaptive competition and took Bronze. We held numerous coaching events at the Club this year including Referee Course held by Dave Stanley; Finding Your Feet course held by the BJA.

March 2012

TAR

We had the great opportunity of inviting World Medallist, Emma Reid down to the Club to take a Master Class for both juniors and seniors which was a great success.

Jack Petchey continues to sponsor 6 of our players each year where they get to choose how to spend the sponsorship money within the Club setting. Great fun was had by those who attended Bowling, Aerial Trekking, Pizza Hut.

We are still on the lookout for more sponsorship for the Club to enable us to continue.

Bexley Van Hire along with MBM are still our sponsors but we will endeavour to look for more in the coming year. Thank you must be said to all our coaches who give their time alongside our Treasurer and Club Welfare Officers who we could not do without to make the Club run as smooth as it does.

Responsibilities and basis of report

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the above charity (“the Trust”) for the year ended 31/03/2025 .

As the charity's trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”).

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

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

the accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; or
the accounts did not accord with the accounting records; or
the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.

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.
