ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
The ¢ore business of the Charlty is lo manage and maintsin buildings and plawng areas. These arg US8d by the SEX)rting
and recreational clubs affiliated lo the Charity and are also available for general hire. In addition, accommodation and
servioes are provlded for the Victoria Field Social Club, with Social Club membership being a prerequisite to membership
of affilial8d clubs.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
The review of the basis for the determination of rents comrnenced in the previous year was completed during the year
and il was agreed that..
Rents would be calculated as a proportlon of the Charify's costs related to the ar&a ocGupled, and common costs
allocated on the basis of the number ol members.
Revenue costs wholly allributable to each activity would be directly reimbursed by the tenants.
Facities Manager costs lo be allributable lo the Victoria So¢l81 Club and lo be responsible for the generation of
addiliorlal inGome.
The demand for the hlre ol the facilities sirkce Covid has not fully recovered and r&grelfully in some cases declined. and
no additional grants have been available.Tho operating costs have risen and the Charity has thereby incurred a loss for
the year of £7085.
The Trustees are. conllnually reviewing the costs of the Charity's activitses which may mean increasing charges,
undertaking aotivitles on a voluntary basis or seeking sponsorship or grant funding.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS. REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE VICTORIA FIELD CHARITY CIO
I report on the accounts of The Victoria Field Charity CIO for the year ended 31 MarGh 2024 which are set
out on pages 4 to 9.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and reporting accountant
The charily's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. They consider that an audit is ni
required for thls year {under section 14412) of the Charities Act 20111 and that an independent examinatior
is needed.
It is my responsibility to examine Ihe accounts (under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011), to follow the
procedures l<Jid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners (under section
145{5){bl of Ihe Charities AGt 2011) and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiners. report
Our examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity
Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a
comparison of the accounts presenled with those records. It also inGludes consideration of any unusual
items or disclosures in the accounts, and the seeking of explanations from you as trustees concerning any
such malters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an au(
and, consequently, we do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
Independènt examiners, statement
In connection with our examinalion, no matter has Gome to our attention which gives us reasonable caus8
to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements to keep accounting records in accordance with
s130 of the Charities Act 2011 and lo prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to
comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act 2011 have not been met, or to which, in our
opinion. attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts lo be reachei
