Achievements and Performance

SORP reference
Summary of the main
achievements of the charity,
identifying the difference the
charity’s work has made to
the circumstances of its
beneficiaries and any wider
benefits to society as a
whole.		 Para 1.20 The main objectives of the charity in the
period was to get established with 9
Trustees who would meet on a regular
basis and would then look towards setting
future goals and objectives in future years.
The second objective was to transfer the
land and buildings from the unincorporated
Aldwinians RUFC into the Aldwinians
Rugby Union Football Club Charity
however the actual transfer occurred on the
8thFeb 2019 so in the previous year
2019/20, at a value of £434,221.
The land and buildings were later valued at
£850,000 on the 15thOctober 2020 by a
commercial chartered surveyor.
In addition to the above the charity wanted
to increase its rugby offering to include a
junior girls team.
All of which with the exception of the
creation of the junior girls team were
achieved. This final objective was due to
the COVID 19 restrictions in training and
playing.

policy for holding reserves

objective was to acquire the land and
buildings, and to establish a rental income
from the bar and function room areas. The
income is low risk and stable, also the
responsibility for the upkeep and costs of
such for areas used by the public remained
with the unincorporated club and not the
charity, therefore, as at the period end
there was no policy required to hold
reserves.
