We provide football opportunities for young people in the West Berkshire area through our volunteer-led football club. The trustees confirm that they have complied with the requirements of section 4 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission for England and Wales. 

**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)** 

## **Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)** 

Our philosophy is simple – we want as many young people as possible to enjoy playing football. We endeavour to help young players expand their social, physical and mental capabilities, to develop a teamwork ethic and to watch them mature whilst understanding the values of courtesy and respect. 

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

Whilst we are immensely proud that some of our players have progressed to play at higher levels of the game in recent years, we recognise that our core focus is to cater for all levels of technical football ability, and we always tailor our coaching accordingly. 

- policy on grantmaking; 

- policy programme related investment; 

- contribution made by volunteers. 

The welfare and safeguarding of our players are fundamental to our approach. We have a dedicated Child Welfare Officer, and our coaches are fully accredited in line with the England Football Association’s policies and guidelines.

Section D                      Achievements and performance 

**Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** 

Our club has now grown to over 400 players, participating across over 20 match day teams from under 7’s to the under 18 age group. This is all a great testament to the incredible work of our 60+ volunteers who coach and manage the teams each week. It also reflects that our reputation continues to grow in the local community – we are still having to put several players on wait lists as most of our squads are full. 

As a result of this growth, we have now expanded the number of venues that our club uses in the local area – we now play our football at three local schools; Park House School, Trinity School, and St Bartholomew’s School plus we use the facilities provided by Newbury Town Council, West Berkshire Council and Boxford Parish Council. 

For the next football season (2025/25) we have held our subscription levels at the same level as the previous season. With a careful focus on expenditure and a renewed focus on engaging local business to raise sponsorship monies for kits, we are forecast to reach a break-even position again. 

Our football club have recruited a new Child Welfare Officer for the forthcoming season. We have had very few incidents where our existing Child Welfare Officer has been required to intervene, but we remain vigilant on these matters and will review our policies on an annual basis to ensure that they are still fit for purpose. 

We are actively developing a football provision specifically targeted at primary school aged female players and now have an established girls section of our football club and this now offers regular weekly football to over 60+ girls, which includes running two teams in the local leagues.

## **Section E                    Financial review** 

The trustees have felt it prudent to build a small level of reserve funding **Brief statement of the charity’s** to provide cover for unexpected expenditures during the football season. **policy on reserves** The reserve funding has remained relatively consistent over the previous few years. 

Longer term, our objective is to develop a more permanent home for footballing facilities for our football club. We have been in active discussions with both local councils abut securing more playing and floodlit training facilities within Newbury. 

Our club is a founding member of the Newbury Community Football Group, and as part of this group regularly uses the new football facility at Faraday Road, Newbury, which is provided by West Berks Council. 

**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); 

- how expenditure has supported the key objectives of the charity; 

- investment policy and objectives including any ethical investment policy adopted.
