opportunities for young people across inner London. The club's charitable PLJrpose remains centred on
providing activities that benefit the Community, particularly diversionary activity for disadvantaged young
people who may not otherwise have access lo high-quality coaching and organised basketball.
The club has maintsined a strong and visible presence through ils base at The Thunderdome.
Stockholm Road, SE16 3LP, while also extending community access through sessions al South
Bermondsey and Forest Hill. The club's Open-aC￿$S Pay & Play model provides a roule into basketball
for players who may not yel be ready or able lo commit lo Basketball England National League teams,
supporting both participation and pathway development.
A major achievement has been the continued growth of the club's performance and development
structure. London Thunder now operates across a wide junior and senior pathway, including Mini-
BallerslU12, U14 boys and gids, U16 boys, U161U18 girls, U18 boys, senior men and women's provision
and this demonstrates the breadth of the programme and the sustained demand for slruclured
basketball opportunities across multiple age groups.

open trials for women and girls, National League teams and now provides dedicated training

gender inelLJsion. improved access and the development of female players in a SLJPPOrtive performance
environment.
The club has also maintained ils commitment to inclusion through wheelchair basketball. London

in broadening access and ensuring that the club reflects the full diversity of the local community.
Community engagement has remained a core strength. London Thunder's use of the Slam Jam model
supports younger children's first experience of basketball in a fun, safe and structured environment.
Basketball England describes Slam Jam as its official junior programme for children aged >11, focused
not only on basketball skills but also physical literacy, movement fundamentals, enjoyment and long-
term engagement in the sport.

activities, exposure to elite basketball, wellbeing support and opportunities for young people to develop

events, including London Lions games, has helped connect young players to the elile game and inspire
ambition within the club pathway.

Accounting poli¢i9s lcontinugdl
Expgndituro
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred.
All costs are allocated between the expenditure categories in the statement of financial activities based
on the use of the resource.
Grants payable are charged in the year when the offer is conveyed lo the recipient.
Governance costs are included within charitsble activities and reflect the costs of an independent
examination in order to meet the constitutional and statutory requirements of the Chari(y.
The costs of raising funds include relevant proportions of the salaries of those responsible for
fundraising and the costs of items used solely for fundraising Ileaflels, etc.). The Charity exists in order
to deliver a front-line service and only fundraises to facilitate that activity- other support costs therefore
have been allocated lo charitable aclivilies.

There have been no related party transactions in the reporting period that require disclosure except for
those disclosed in note 8.
Debtors
Debtors are recognised at their settlement amount, less any provision for non-recoverabilily.

Creditors and provisions
Creditors and provisions are recognised when there is an obligation at the balance sheet date as a
result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement,
and the amount of the selllemenl can be estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are recognised at
the amount the Charity anlicipales it will pay lo settle the debt. They have been discounted lo the
present value of the future cash payment where such discounting is material.

further specific conditions and are available as general funds. Reslricled funds which have been
donated for a specific purpose, are restricted in use lo that project and not available as general funds.
