## **SHERE SWIMMING POOL CLUB – CIO (SSPC)** 

## **TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT for the year to 30 September 2025** 

## **OBJECTIVES and ACTIVITIES** 

## **Introduction** 

SSPC operates the pool on behalf of Shere Parish Council (SPC), under a sub-lease, with the Lord of the Manor still owning the freehold land, SPC owning the pool and buildings, and SSPC owning the plant room systems and other equipment which it has installed. SSPC is nevertheless responsible for maintaining the pool and buildings infrastructure as well as the plant room systems, under arrangements agreed with SPC. It became a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) in 2019. 

This Trustees Annual Report (TAR) covers the activities for the year to 30 September 2025, operating as a CIO for the sixth full year. It has been compiled in accordance with the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) – FRS 102. 

## **Purpose** 

The charitable purpose of the Shere Swimming Pool Club, as set out in the new CIO constitution is: 

_The promotion of community participation in healthy recreation for the benefit of the inhabitants of Shere Parish and the surrounding neighbourhood, by the provision and maintenance of swimming facilities, as well as facilitating the provision of swimming activities and support services._ 

## **Main Activities** 

The sole activity of the charity is to operate an open-air swimming pool in Shere, for the benefit of everyone in the local community interested in swimming there, all of whom are entitled to become members of the swimming pool club. 

This outdoor pool is maintained by volunteers. Members comprise individuals and families, with a total number of memberships at just over 500, 251 single memberships, 265 family memberships. This amounts to 1,227 people being members each year. Members are allowed to invite guests, who need to be accompanied by the member, in order to swim. 

The ages of Members were captured on the application form in 2025. A third of members are under 19 and over 17% are 60+ years old. 



|**Age**|**Members**|**Percentage**|
|---|---|---|

The committee and volunteers worked hard to open the pool by 5th April 2025, so it was available for the Easter holidays. The pool was open every day until 19th October 2025. By the end of the season the booking system had registered 8979 transactions – more than last year when there was a delayed start to the season [2024: 7793]. 

Members cancelled 2166 bookings, some of which would have then been re-booked by others. As a result a total of 6813 effective bookings have been made this season [2024: 6019]. 

Including open swims and events, it is estimated that as many as 15,000 or more swims have taken place over the course of the season. Based on the usage of member’s cards at the gate. We are looking at ways of correlating bookings with data recorded at the gate to see how frequent the perceived problem with “no-shows” actually is. 




It is pleasing to note that reported no shows have reduced this year. Possibly as a result of cancellations being easier to make. From 6/6/25 to 31/08/25 cancellations ran high at 24%. The view of the committee is that if these are made more than 2 hours in advance we should be pleased that the slot is available for others. However a third are being cancelled within 2 hours of the slot, often depriving others of a swim. A focus on last minute cancellations is needed for 2026 and progress has been made on the issuing of emails to remind members that they have a booking that day. 

## **Public Benefit** 

## **The trustees confirm that they have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit and that this has been fully complied with in running the CIO, throughout the year.** 

The Trustees are keen that everyone in Shere Parish and immediately surrounding villages who wish to swim in the pool are not deterred from doing so due to financial constraints. In 2025 to minimise the impact of the membership fee increase, a hardship fund was introduced - see details below. 

An Access Betterment policy has been written this year. This reflects the limitation of an old pool, but also celebrates some of the actions already taken to improve the environment e.g. disabled changing room, hard path, handrail. The 2025 questionnaire showed the vast majority of members felt the pool was accessible: 


Comments included: 

‘’Means a lot to me, as I'm disabled and need to keep as fit as I can without the hassle of a crowded public pool.” 

“Pool is vital to my disability as my only form of proper exercise. Also helps my mental health.” 



“I have used the pool to rehab from a broken back. It’s been an invaluable tool for me to focus on healing.” 

The Trustees are committed to continue to be educated and consult on inclusion best practice. 

Members receive substantial benefits from use of the pool, including: 

- The opportunity to increase physical fitness, and help manage specific health conditions 

- The outdoor setting which helps benefit mental well-being and plays an important part in creating community cohesion and reducing isolation 

- Enabling precious family time and increasing children's swimming confidence. 

- Attending social events e.g. coffee and swim, designed to increase community cohesion 

Summary of answers to the question ‘What does the pool mean to you’ in the 2025 questionnaire : 


There have been some wonderful quotes in this year's survey on the pool’s benefits: 

‘A lovely unique space for people to come together and play or exercise in the pool in a small, intimate setting surrounded by beautiful nature’. 

“It’s relaxing, fun, peaceful and at times a lifeline in this crazy busy world we live in’’. ‘’enables my love of swimming, health, friendship, kindness, community’’ 



This is the second year that pupils in Year 2 for Shere School and Year 3 for Clandon School have used the pool for swimming lessons. The children have enjoyed swimming and have developed their skills. For some it was their first experience of swimming. **Contribution made by volunteers** 

In the absence of paid employees the pool is exclusively run by volunteers. They are involved in all aspects, ranging from the management roles of the trustees, through the pool operations rota team, to the pool cleaning team, to the opening and closing team and to the gardeners. Their contribution to the success of the running of the pool safely, and its financial viability are key and greatly appreciated by the whole community. 

## **ACHIEVEMENTS and PERFORMANCE** 

## **2025 Objectives** 

The SSPC Annual Plan gave a sense of direction for the committee, helping to set an appropriate budget and determine priorities. The plan is agreed at the outset of the year with responsibilities allocated to trustees and then reviewed at committee meetings. The objectives for 2025 are listed below with a summary of progress made. 

## **1. Operation - capital/ maintenance** 

- Install a plastic grid path on raised ground 

- Achieve disabled friendly access e.g. gate, hand rail 

- Create shade by the pool 

- Repair the changing room roof and sort out the toilets, including loo roll holder/mirrors 

- Look at implications for sympathetically pruning the oak tree/ consider solar panels 

A lot of work has gone into the pool compound and access routes this year. 

With the permission of Shere Parish Council and Shere Estate, a plastic grid path was installed on a raised base. This has greatly improved access for all, and proved invaluable in the event of heavy rain when the field can be flooded. The path was further enhanced with the planting of wild flower seeds which took incredibly well. This alongside the hedge planting and general tidying/ improvement of the bed outside the fence and tubs within the compound have made the pool a very attractive space. Feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. SSPC’s thanks to the many people involved and Shere Open Gardens who provided the funds for the bed/tubs. 

When consulting about the path, it became apparent that the gate was difficult to open by wheel chair users and the path sloped upwards on approach. These issues have been resolved. Access to the pool was further enhanced with the introduction of a handrail into the pool. Members have noted that SSPC is much easier to access/leave than traditional pools with vertical steps. 



A significant amount of ongoing pool maintenance is undertaken by a group of committed volunteers/trustees. This year the focus was on the changing room/toilets, and improvements have been made. More friendly signage has been painted on the cupboard and toilet doors. Better shade has been requested, but it was felt parasols could blow away. Instead further benches were installed, having kindly been gifted by The William Bray, in the hope that some of these would fall within the shade of the trees. A plan to harness the sunshine via solar panels has continued to be investigated and it is hoped progress will be made next year. 

Acorns from the large oak tree continue to pepper the changing rooms and fall into the pool. Having spoken to Shere School who own the tree it is not possible to see how this could be stopped without damaging the tree. Thanks to everyone who tidies them up! 

## **2. Operations - ongoing** 

- Decision re use of PPE for monthly servicing 

- Upgrade gate system/ complete measurement upgrades 

- Write a contingency plan for moving away from a bromine based disinfectant if needed 

- Consider if booking system can be improved at all 

The Operations team have excelled themselves this year. The pool has consistently looked beautiful and clean, the temperature has been on track and stable at c.26c and the chemicals have been properly administered. So much work goes into the daily management and checks to ensure this remains the case. Much improved remote reporting from the pool has helped the committee track temperatures, energy use and chemical levels. 

External company PPE has continued to provide an overview of the plant room, but the committee reduced the PPE checks to once monthly and this balance has reduced costs but maintained external quality assurance. 

In 2024 a risk was raised about the build up of bromates resulting from our use of bromine as a disinfectant. Last year all 4 tests showed very safe levels. The testing in 2025 showed slightly raised levels of bromates which were above those suggested by industry body PWTAG. Trustees immediately consulted with PWTAG who have acknowledged that UK levels are set at the same level as drinking water and it is likely these will be increased for pools. In the meantime they were happy that more frequent pool top ups from the well and backwashing would reduce bromate levels over time - and improvements have been seen. To be prepared a contingency plan has been drawn up in case we do need to change chemicals. 

Given the glorious summer weather, the ASHP was almost exclusively used from mid-June to mid-August. This vastly reduced our gas consumption and helped with our environmental aims. The new pool cover also helped improve heat retention (as well as ease of use pulling it on and off everyday) 

Additionally our gas contract has been renewed from July 2026 giving us a saving from 8.9p/kWh to 6.5p/kWh. The standing charge will increase slightly from 24p per day to 29p day 




Feedback on the booking system was taken into consideration and some tweaks made to improve the user experience. Mostly notable was improving the ease of cancelling a lane. A milestone was reached in late July when the booking system recorded its 50,000th booking since it was introduced back in August 2020. 

## **3. Membership  & Volunteering** 

- Introduce hardship fund (rules and procedures) 

- Introduce membership ballot 

- Create a calendar of social events for adults and children for the season 

- Focus on no shows and trial ways to reduce their impact 

- Change cleaning rota to weekend and midweek 

- More trustee support for volunteering coordination & recognition 

The excellent digital membership system membermojo was used to great effect again this year. Members found it easier to complete as for most some data was already known and the membership team found it straightforward to set up and manage. Membership fees had needed to be raised by £10 & £20 to £70 (individual) and £140 (family), and there was concern that this may price some members out. As a result a hardship fund of £2000 was created and promoted (especially by Shere and Clandon schools and Shere Surgery) which members could ask for if they needed help. It was gratifying to see the impact of this. 



Likewise in recent years there have been concerns from ‘locals’ who miss the end of applications deadline and new ‘remote’ swimmers who are unable to get membership. To this end a ballot was introduced with 20 places for those affected. This worked well and will be repeated in 2026. 

Thanks to all those involved in the social events. These have included coffee/swim mornings, toddler swims, moon swims and inflatable madness. All have been very well received and created a real sense of community. 

Communication has vastly improved with a monthly newsletter keeping members informed of activities and reminding them of rules and the challenges of no shows/ late cancellations. A new logo for the pool has been designed which will feature on signs, on the website and in the newsletter. 

A few actions have been carried forward to 2025/6 including introducing SSPC merchandise and participating in Shere Open gardens 

The membership sub-committee were also happy to oversee cleaning/gardening volunteering and this has run very smoothly. The introduction of weekend and weekday cleaning slots was well received with all spaces filled. There is an acknowledgement that more could be done to thank our volunteers, and it is hoped many will attend the AGM for a glass of wine. 

## **Governance/ Finance** 

- Skills audit/succession planning for committee, including annual review with each trustee ● Review internal financial controls as per charities commission guidance 

- Create a disability policy (physical and mental disabilities) 

- Cyber risk assessment 

SSPC is blessed with an active and highly capable Board. Every member has a distinct role and there is a great deal of effective collaboration. This is helped by the annual plan and budget which is agreed at the beginning of the year. The sub committees continue to work well and each one has its own purpose, scope and budget. 

There was some concern about succession planning and this has been discussed and largely resolved following individual annual reviews. It is pleasing that all trustees have agreed to remain on the committee. 

Cyber security of both SSPC’s use of data and our supplier’s (e.g. membermojo) use of data has been a focus of analysis. The government’s National Cyber Security Centre has provided some valuable advice and actions have been taken to minimise our risks of a breach. 

Governance remains strong and in addition to cyber security within the year we have reviewed internal controls, updated the risk register and consulted on access & inclusion. 



FINANCE UPDATE 

## **1. Financial Review** 

The Accounts have been prepared on an accruals basis, consistent with previous years. They include a Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA), a Balance Sheet, and accompanying Notes to the Accounts within the CC17 Accounts Pack. 

## Income and Expenditure 

Total income for the year was £63,841, up from £58,496 in the previous year. 

This increase was primarily driven by higher membership fees, partly offset by the £920 spent in hardship fund support. 

## Operating Income and Expenses 

Subscription revenue remained the charity’s principal income stream, totalling £58,960 (2024: £51,736). This income, recorded as _Unrestricted Funds_ , provides flexibility to cover general operating costs. 

Total expenditure before depreciation and capital investments was £38,305, including £305 of restricted expenditure on the gardening project. 

Operating costs were £38,000, a modest rise from £35,488 last year. Utility costs increased to £21,480 (2024: £17,774), although energy costs remained stable, the prior years accounts included an accrual of approximately £3,000 which was reversed in 2024, explaining much of the year on year variance. 

Capital expenditure during the year amounted to £9,144, covering the new path, gate, and handrail, which have been added to _Fixed Assets_ . 

No trustee received payment or claimed expenses during the year, or in the prior year. 

## Depreciation 

Depreciation for the year totalled £23,406, representing a provision for future asset replacement. 

As in previous years, this is a non-cash charge, deducted from _Restricted Income Funds_ in accordance with the SOFA and Note 6. The increase from last year reflects the addition of the path, gate, and handrail to the depreciation schedule. 

## Grants, Donations, and Gift Aid 

Generous member donations, primarily received during membership renewals, amounted to £4,067 including Gift Aid (2024: £5,312). 

The annual decrease may reflect the increase in subscription fees. 

## Fixed Assets 

The year’s capital expenditure of £9,144 for the path, handrail, and gate has been classified under _Fixed Assets_ . 



## Financial Position at Year-End 

Unrestricted funds rose to £52,072, reflecting a net operating surplus of £16,697 

A further £10,000 has been allocated to the _Capital Replacement Fund (CRF)_ , bringing the CRF total to £30,000. 

General Reserves stand at £10,000, with £12,072 carried forward into unrestricted funds for the next financial year. 

Overall, the charity’s financial position at year-end is stronger than the previous year, demonstrating prudent financial management and continued community support. 

## Reserves Policy 

The Trustees maintain unrestricted reserves to ensure the pool can continue to operate effectively in the event of unexpected income shortfalls or expenditure needs. The target level of reserves is set at £10,000 providing a buffer for seasonal variations, maintenance requirements and other unforeseen events. 

## Meeting Future Funding Requirements 

The Trustees prepared, reviewed and approved the proposed budget for 2026. The overall financial position remains strong, with a projected surplus of just under £21,000 after accounting for operating costs and planned projects. In line with our financial policy, £10,000 will be transferred to the Capital Replacement Fund (CRF), leaving an effective carry-forward balance of just under £11,000. 

The operating budget for 2026 is broadly consistent with previous years, allowing for modest increases in utility costs due to inclement weather conditions, and routine operational expenses. The Trustees consider this to be a balanced and sustainable budget that supports the safe and effective running of the pool while maintaining good value for members. 

A total of £10,000 has been allocated to 2026 projects, reflecting a continued focus on maintenance, safety, and sustainability. Planned works include the installation of solar panels, installing warm shower facilities, an alert system for plant monitoring, and a ROSPA safety audit. Several smaller enhancements, such as seating, training, and further pool improvements, have also been included. 

## Review of Internal Controls 

The trustees undertook a review of the pools internal controls to ensure financial systems and governance arrangements remain robust. This review was completed by the Governance Committee during the year and reported to the full Trustees’ Committee. No material issues were identified, and the Trustees are satisfied that the charity’s internal control framework continues to operate effectively. 

Principal Financial Risks 



The charity is in a stronger financial position than in previous years, due to proactive risk management. 

A key risk has been the volatility of utility costs. To mitigate this, the charity has secured fixed utility rates for the coming season, ensuring greater certainty over expenditure. The operations team will continue to optimise the balance between the ASHP and boilers to maintain energy efficiency and stable pool temperatures. 

The _Capital Replacement Fund (CRF)_ , now at £30,000, provides additional resilience by earmarking funds for future major repairs or replacements, thereby reducing pressure on operating budgets. 

While risks remain, particularly around unforeseen maintenance, the charity’s careful stewardship and forward planning have positioned it on a sound financial footing for the year ahead. 

## Going Concern 

The Trustees have reviewed the pool's financial position and confirm that it remains a going concern. SSPC holds sufficient unrestricted reserves and cash balances to meet its foreseeable obligations, with funds comfortably exceeding annual expenditure. The trustees consider there are no material uncertainties that would cast doubt on the pool's ability to continue operating for the next 12 months and beyond. 

## **Trustees** 

Trustees are recruited from the membership of the club, based on names normally put forward to the AGM and confirmed by voting of those members attending. It is, however, possible for them to be appointed at other times of the year, and for any such extra appointments to be ratified at the subsequent AGM. 

Kath Webster and Christian Staunskjaer’s positions are up for re-election at the AGM and given our massive appreciation of their support the Committee are delighted that both wish to re stand. 

## **Management** 

As stated above - as well as the full committee meetings attended by all Trustees, 3 subcommittees have been set up: Finance, Governance and Risk - led by The Chair Operations and Health and Safety - led by The Health and Safety Manager Membership and Volunteering - led by the Membership Secretary 

These subcommittees meet in between full committee meetings to progress actions/issues specific to their areas of specialisation. Updates are given through reports and verbal updates at the main committee meeting. 



## **Risk (non-financial)** 

A risk register is overseen by the Finance, Governance and Risk sub-committee and reviewed by all the Trustees at least annually to ensure that we have considered all aspects associated with running the pool. There is also a range of policies and procedures covering aspects such as CFI, complaints, safeguarding, GDPR and Access Betterment. 

## **Shere Parish Council** 

As the main lessor of the pool and with overall responsibility for promotion of community initiatives, Shere Parish Council (SPC) continues to take a keen interest in pool management matters. SPC has a representative attending all trustee meetings and providing close communication with the Parish Council.

In<br>the reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised as an expense<br>at the carrying amount of the stocks at distribution.<br>Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the<br>expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income<br>from other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance sheet.<br>On its sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading activities' and<br>the proceeds from  sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading activities'.<br>Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets and<br>included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable.<br>Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations when<br>receivable.<br>**Donated services and**<br>**facilities**<br>Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of the<br>gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably.<br>Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as income<br>with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate heading in the<br>SOFA.<br>**Support costs**<br>The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs.<br>**Volunteer help**<br>The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in<br>the trustees’ annual report.<br>**Income from interest,**<br>**royalties and dividends**<br>This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can be<br>measured reliably.<br>**Income from membership**<br>**subscriptions**<br>Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in Donations and<br>Legacies.<br>Membership subscriptions which gives a member the right to buy services or other benefits<br>are recognised as income earned from the provision of goods and services as income from<br>charitable activities.<br>**Settlement of insurance**<br>**claims**<br>Insurance claims are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria<br>are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP) and are included as an item of other income in the<br>SoFA.<br>**Investment gains and**<br>**losses**<br>This includes any realised or unrealised gains or losses on the sale of investments and any<br>gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the year.<br>**2.3 EXPENDITURE AND LIABILITIES**<br>**Liability recognition**<br>Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive|Yes<br>No<br>N/a|Yes<br>No<br>N/a|Yes<br>No<br>N/a|
