Trustees and Governance||At the start of the season, long term volunteer
and friend of EIWW Joanne Yates was voted on
to the board of trustees as its new treasurer,
relieving Jill Hayward of that office.
Jill Hayward remains a trustee.
At the end of the 2023 season Michelle Avery
stood down as a trustee due to other personal
commitments.
EIWW therefore retains four trustees, one
more than is required by its constitution, but
will look to recruit one further trustee in due
course.|

adaptive water ski sessions. In addition, it was
able to build on the previous season’s
relationship with the Help For Heroes

sessions for their clients. This was provided

funding to support the general work of the
charity.|

## **Financial Review**
|**Financial Review**|||
|---|---|---|
|Review of the charity’s
financial position at the end
of the period|Para 1.21|The financial period ended with £9761 of
cash funds held in its bank account. The
charity saw income from water ski course
tow fees of £2688 (against £1296 the
previous season). This was a welcome
upswing compared to the previous year,
which had suffered from a post-pandemic
hangover amongst those taking part in
adaptive sporting activities. Expenses
relating to boat and lake hire for the
sessions at Ellingham Water Ski &
Wakeboard club remained un-changed,
allowing the charity to make only a very
small increase in tow fees from £12 to
£12.50 per tow in order to cover base
operating costs.
EIWW also benefitted from a £1000
donation from British Water Ski and
Wakeboard in support of its activities. As a
result, EIWW saw a surplus of £1348 in
2023-24.
The general policy of the charity is to keep
the tow fees levied to its users as low as
possible. This makes the sport as
accessible as possible. The tow fees are
therefore designed to cover the base cost
of the operation, with any additional
projects or capital purchases requiring
external fund raising. This is exactly the
position the charity has maintained in 2023-
24. The approach for the 2024-25 season
will be similar, with emphasis being placed
on making more funding applications to
enable planned equipment upgrades, whilst
still maintaining the lowest achievable base
cost for those taking to the water.|

inspection fees, etc).|
