REPORT OF THE CHAIR OF TRUSTEES
The most momentous news to impart, although it falls outside the period covered by this report, is that we have now signed a lease with the Council, for a 15-year term. This is a very significant development for the club, giving us security of tenure for the site and allowing us to plan for the future with confidence. My thanks to the Council for their ongoing support in helping us achieve this goal.
On the lawns it was another busy and successful year, with the club competing in a wide range of Croquet England and Croquet South East competitions and leagues, across both Association and Golf Croquet. Club members also competed with considerable success as individuals in tournaments around the country.
An intrepid team ventured much further afield, to Latvia to compete in the inaugural GC European Club League. This proved a memorable adventure, not least because they won the heat, gaining a place in the final at Roehampton.
Our AC Advanced tournament attracted its usual strong field, and the GC B- and C-Level tournaments were well supported. We hosted a Croquet South East Short Croquet tournament for the first time, and this proved a great success, helped by the baking hot October weather. We also hosted the AC Mary Rose final.
The Charity One-Ball heat was great fun as usual, and raised funds for the UN Refugee Agency UNHCR. We retained the Lloyd-Pratt Mallet in our annual friendly against High Wycombe, the result coming down to a shoot-out at the peg when the match scores were tied.
The biggest event, however, was the Association Croquet World Championships, for which we hosted three days of block play and two days of the Plate, featuring many of the world’s top players. Our lawns were widely complimented, and our hospitality praised, as it was for all the tournaments and matches we hosted. My thanks to everyone who helped make the Worlds such a success, and to all members for giving up use of the lawns for a week.
We ran two public coaching courses at the start of the season to drive recruitment, in addition to our regular Pay & Play programme. We hired out the club for a number of successful events, and trialled Yoga on the Lawns as an unusual early morning activity.
We secured an Ealing Futures Improving Access grant plus our own fundraising match for the work on improving access to the lawns. Heathrow Community Trust awarded us a grant of £14,900, and the Orbis Buchanan employee programme gave us a second grant, of £4,000, both of which were carried forward for work on the pavilion in 2024. Croquet England gave us a grant towards the purchase of our mower, which has made us less reliant on the whims of contractors, as well as saving us a significant amount of money. Our smart new sign outside the pedestrian gate was partly funded by winning the CqE Opening doors competition.
The pavilion received a fresh coat of green paint, thanks to a generous donation by a local business. We refreshed our website, comprehensively rewriting the content.
As always, none of this could have been achieved without the efforts of so many members who contribute in so many ways – far too many for me to be able to list them individually. My thanks to everyone who helps makes the club a success, with a well-earned reputation for being friendly and welcoming.

TRUSTEES’ REPORT
The Trustees are pleased to present their annual report together with the financial statements of the Charitable Incorporated Organisation for the year ending 31 December 2023.
In preparing these accounts the Trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statements 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 2015).
INCORPORATION
In 1988, a members’ croquet club named “Ealing Croquet Club” was formed as an Unincorporated Association (“the Association”). In June 2018, at an Extraordinary General Meeting (“EGM”), the members attending unanimously agreed to apply to the Charity Commission for Charitable Incorporated Organisation (“CIO”) status.
Ealing Croquet Club was granted CIO status and entered in the register of charities of the Charity Commission on 30th November 2018. The CIO’s governing document is its constitution. The working name of the CIO is “Ealing Croquet Club” (ECC). On 22nd January 2019, the CIO took on the assets and liabilities of the Association.
The Association had an unwritten arrangement with Ealing Council (‘the Council”) to have the exclusive use of a site in Lammas Park comprising three lawns and two buildings. The Council agreed to carry on the arrangement with the CIO. The CIO and the Council continued negotiation about the future arrangements during the year, concluding in taking on a new lease for the site in 2024.
The CIO continues to operate a membership structure. Membership is open to all, with subscriptions levied in order to finance operating costs and ongoing development of the facilities. In recent years, we have been exploring other models of participation in croquet activities to allow the facility to be opened up to be enjoyed by the whole community, including running regular public Pay & Play sessions during the summer months and hosting private group bookings and community group events.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
The primary purpose of the CIO as set out in the governing document is to promote community participation in healthy recreation by the provision of facilities for playing croquet. To this end, the CIO maintains and manages sports facilities comprising croquet lawns and the organising of sporting activity including coaching and competitions.
STRUCTURE GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
We refer to the Chair’s report for a note of the club’s achievements in the past year.
The Trustees meet at four formal meetings throughout the year, and regular contact or additional meetings if necessary in between. The day to day operations of the club are delegated to an Executive Committee of volunteer officers made up from the membership covering the areas of:
-
Playing Croquet
-
Members, Communication & Retention
-
Lawns & Facilities Management
-
Development & External Engagement
The minimum number of Trustees is three and the maximum number is twelve. The Trustees have no beneficial interest in the company other than as playing members. The Trustees are satisfied that all our systems are compliant with the requirements of the Charity Commission.

PUBLIC BENEFIT
As Trustees, we have regard to the Charity Commission’s public benefit guidance and have taken it into account in all decision-making. We are fully aware of our place in the wider community, and believe that we have complied with our duty to have regard to the published guidance on public benefit. Membership is open to all, including those with restricted ability to pay, and we continue to develop our programme of croquet sessions for children and young adults with special educational needs.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
The Statement of Financial Activities showed a net surplus for the year of £30,491 (2022: £20,319), of which £12,300 (2022: £13,735) is unrestricted, and total reserves stand at £86,298 (2022: £55,807) of which £23,447 are general unrestricted reserves (2022: £48,938), after having set aside £37,836 in designated funds for known future commitments in relation to essential renovations and repairs of the Pavilion, legal and other costs of taking on the lease for the site, and matched funds for expenditure covered by Restricted funds (2022: nil).
The CIO is primarily funded by membership fees from signed up, playing members, with additional income streams from guest fees, tournaments, public sessions and groups and community events at the club.
Following the reduction of members during the pandemic, membership continued to grow steadily from 81 to 97 at the end of the year, and as a result membership income increased from prior year. During 2023 the club continued to run public Pay & Play sessions throughout April to September, and extended group events for public and community organisations, including groups with disabilities.
Hosting the Association Croquet World Championships block play increased income from Tournaments and related expenditure.
The agreement for the temporary hire of part of the upstairs of the Pavilion which began in 2021 was extended in 2023 and continued for the full year, and the trading agreement with the Council and Bean ‘n’ Scone to operate their mobile coffee trike from the site which began in 2022 continued, as well as some smaller hires for storage facilities for other sporting groups which operate in the park.
The CIO was also successful in securing a number of restricted grants, most notably a further grant of £4,000 from the Orbis Buchanan employee programme, and a grant totalling £14,900 from the Heathrow Community Trust split over the 2023 and 2024 financial years to fund taking forward development proposals for the site.
Expenditure on lawn maintenance continued at a reduced level as we continued to make our planned move towards greater self-sufficiency on lawn mowing going into 2023, which included the purchase of a mower and storage units which are held as tangible fixed assets. Additional spending on croquet equipment in preparation for hosting the Association Croquet World Championships block play, and on our website refresh increased spending in other areas.
FUTURE PLANS
Going forward we will continue to seek to secure the long-term future of the club in negotiation with the Council, continue with sustainable arrangements for the maintenance of the lawns and increase club membership, offering pathways from social through to competitive play to suit all members. As part of our development plans we are also committed to encouraging wider participation in croquet and wider use of the facilities, to open the site up to the whole community, within the resources we have available to us.
5
EALING CROQUET CLUB A Charitable Incorporated Organisation Registered Charity Number 1180927
RESERVES POLICY
We have ambitious long-term plans to invest in and develop the site to secure our future, and the future of croquet in the park, and are in negotiations with the council for a new long lease as part of this planning. Projects of this nature carry a high element of risk and additional cost and we are building our reserves to cover legal & professional costs plus contingency cover for the proposed development works. The balance is held to cover ongoing minor building repairs, and unexpected one-off expenditure on lawns and equipment, or periods of closure as experienced during the pandemic.
RELATED PARTIES
During the year there were no related party transactions.
PAY POLICY FOR SENIOR MANAGEMENT STAFF
The club is run and managed solely by members of the croquet club acting on a voluntary basis.
RISK MANAGEMENT
The Trustees have a risk management strategy that incorporates:
-
Regular review of all risks the organisation may face;
-
The development of strategies and an action plan to reduce the impact of these risks;
-
Mechanisms for monitoring the implementation and reviewing of these strategies.

AUDIT AND INDEPENDENT EXAMINATION

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF EALING CROQUET CLUB FOR THE YEAR ENDING 31 DECEMBER 2023
I report on the unaudited financial statements of the CIO for the year ending 31 December 2023 as set out on pages 9 to 14.
RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF TRUSTEES AND THE INDEPENDENT EXAMINER
The Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements. The Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this period and have chosen to complete an independent examination.
Having satisfied myself that the CIO is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
-
examine the financial statements under section 145 of the 2011 Act,
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act, and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
BASIS OF INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Charity and a comparison of the financial statements presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements and seeking explanations from you as the Trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the financial statements present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S STATEMENT
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements:
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006, and
-
• to prepare financial statements which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice ‘Accounting and Reporting by Charities (FRS102)’ have not been met; or
(2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.
