Greenbank Pool
Report of the trustees
For the year ended 30 September 2025
Reference and administrative information set out on page 1 forms part of this report. The financial statements comply with current statutory requirements, the Trust Deed and the Statement of Recommended Practice - Accounting and Reporting by Charities (effective from January 2019).
Achievements and performance
Overall, the pool has made a loss in the year of £22,313, including the unrealised loss of £35,602 on the investment in C & J Clark Limited.
Excluding this unrecognised loss, the pool has made a small surplus of £13,289 on its actual activities.
The pool's success is very dependent upon the weather, which as we know, is very variable from year to year and throughout the pool's opening season. The weather therefore plays a key part in the number of visitors to the pool, either with a season ticket or just visiting for the day. The number of pool visitors is a key measurement of how well the pool has done for the season, but at the same time, we have no control over the weather which is also such an important factor in the pool's success.
Fortunately, this year the season had good weather and as a result, a similar number of season tickets were sold compared to last year. With an increase in the price of season tickets this resulted in an increase in income from season tickets of £10,810.
The warm weather lasted most of the season resulting in an increase in the number of daily visitors and therefore gate income was up by approximately £78,500, compared to last year, an increase of 30.6%.
The pool is also available for schools to hire and for children's parties.
The shop’s profit was approximately £5,000 higher than the prior year. The shop sells refreshments to the pool visitors as well as items such as children's swimming nappies and is only open to those visiting the pool. Parking income has also remained in line with the prior year.
The pool was also given a much-valued grant of £30,000 from Street Parish Council which helps it to provide a valuable resource to the local community.
Overall, income has seen an increase in the year and as noted, the weather was a major factor with the summer being hotter on average.
This year has also seen an increase in expenditure compared to prior year when significant expenditure was made on repairs and maintenance to improve the pool’s facilities. All these maintenance costs, however, will enhance what is on offer at the pool and are important to maintain its upkeep. This year has seen new benches, and new electrics for the Wet Play Area, new fire bund around the bin store and some costs in respect rebuilding the sit wall.

Greenbank Pool
Report of the trustees
For the year ended 30 September 2025
Wages and salaries have also increased and apart from one full-time member of staff, the pool employs a number of temporary staff, many of whom are students who have undertaken their life guarding training through the pool. Even younger students are employed as litter pickers and many of these students return for several years to work at the pool, whilst on school/university holidays. The pool is therefore very much an important part of the community.
Financial review
The results for the year are shown on page 8 as set out on the Statement of Financial Activities.
Gains/(losses) on investments are treated as a component of net income under FRS 102 and the trust's net expenditure was £22,313 (2024: net expenditure £43,096).
The trust saw an unrealised loss on the revaluation of its investment in C&J Clark Limited of £35,602 compared to an unrealised loss of £119,621 the prior year. However, once again, there has been no income from these unlisted investments as no dividends were paid by C&J Clark Limited during the year.
Total funds carried forward as at 30 September 2025 are £921,307 (30 September 2024: £943,620).
Investment performance
As noted above, the charity made an unrealised loss of £35,602 (2024: unrealised loss of £119,621) on the unlisted investment in C&J Clark Limited shares.
Information relating to changes in investments is given in note 12 to the accounts. A valuation of the shares in C&J Clark Limited was carried out on 25 June 2025 by BDO and has seen a decrease in the share value from £1.13 to £0.88 which has resulted in an unrealised loss of £35,802.
This latest valuation at 25 June 2025 is closest to the balance sheet date and is considered to be the fair value of the other investment as at 30 September 2025.
No dividends from these shares have been received in either period.
Investment policy
There are no restrictions imposed on the investment policy by the trust deed. The Trustees make the investments in accordance with Charity Law.
Reserves policy
At 30 September 2025, the charity had total reserves of £921,307 (2024: £943,620).
At 30 September 2025, unrestricted reserves are £389,015 (2024: £385,843) and reserves held in the endowment trust are £532,292 (2024: £557,777). Free reserves stand at £359,676 (£353,727).
The Trustees have a policy of continually reviewing the reserves position and their objective is to maintain the level of reserves as appropriate to keep pace with developments.

Greenbank Pool
Report of the trustees
For the year ended 30 September 2025
The Trustees have the policy that it is prudent to have sufficient reserves to cover three years of potential losses as a result of bad weather which sets the free reserves at £200,000 which is a medium-term target given the current level of free reserves. The endowment fund is also able to transfer cash to the unrestricted fund if needed and this was done on several occasions during the pandemic. In the short term the Trustees' aim is that the pool breaks even each year, but this is heavily dependent on the weather and attendance levels.
Objectives and activities
Accounts
Greenbank Pool was incorporated as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) and was registered with the Charity Commission on 28 February 2020. It was set up to take forward the work of the unincorporated charity, Greenbank Swimming Pool, registered number, 304645, and the transfer of all assets from the unincorporated trust, the "old charity", took place on 31 March 2020.
In line with the Vesting Declaration, the unrestricted property has been vested in the CIO as the corporate property and the property held in the endowment fund, known as the Amenities Trust, has been vested in the CIO as a Trustee to hold as a trust corporation as it was before the transfer. This property is therefore still held separately in an endowment trust.
The objectives of the charity are:
-
(1) the maintenance and running of the swimming pool known as Greenbank Pool for the benefit of the inhabitants of Street in Somerset and the neighbourhood; and
-
(2) the promotion of education in Street in such manner as the charity Trustees in their discretion think fit.
In fulfilling these objectives, the charity recognises the wishes of Hilda Clark as the settlor of the CIO's predecessor charitable trust (which she founded in memory of her sister Alice Clark) to consider the needs of women and girls, Street library and the promotion of physical training and maintenance of playing fields in selecting particular charitable purposes to promote education in Street.
Public benefit
The Trustees confirm they have complied with the duty in section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Commission. The Trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the Charity's aims and objectives and in planning future activities. The outdoor swimming pool facilities are available to the public throughout the summer season from May to September and the local schools also use the facilities.
Plans for future periods
Looking forward, the charity would like to:
-
(1) Make the pool more sustainable by using renewable energy to heat the pool;
-
(2) Look to diversify the income streams to include alternative income generating opportunities and offer additional facilities; and
-
(3) Make the pool more accessible to all by upgrading the facilities.
The Trustees' would like to keep the family nature of the pool while including additional services to attract a wider audience and holding events to engage with the public.

Greenbank Pool
Report of the trustees
For the year ended 30 September 2025
Structure, governance and management
Greenbank Swimming Pool and Other Amenities Endowment Trust were established under two trust deeds in 1937. Together, they formed a registered charity, Greenbank Swimming Pool, charity number 304645. The assets of this old charity were transferred to this charity, a CIO, on 30 March 2020. This charity has taken on the two former trust deeds and is governed by a 'Foundation' Constitution having been registered at the Charity Commission on 28 February 2020.
Every Trustee must be appointed by a resolution at a properly convened meeting. In selecting new Trustees for appointment, the charity trustees must have regard to the skills, knowledge and experience needed for the effective administration of the CIO. Newly appointed Trustees will receive a copy of the Constitution and a copy of the CIO's latest Trustees' Annual Report and statement of accounts. There is no restriction on the length of time that a Trustee holds office.
Any decision may be made either at a meeting of the charity Trustees or via a resolution.
The Trustees also have the power to appoint a committee and delegate any of their power or functions to such a committee. The old charity had a Management Committee which has continued, and the management committee normally meet formally once a year.
All Trustees give their time freely and no remuneration was paid in the year.
Greenbank Pool has one full time employee throughout the year, and the remaining staff are normally just employed during the summer season.
Statement of responsibilities of the trustees
The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year, which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and the incoming resources and application of resources, including the net income or expenditure, of the charity for the year. In preparing those financial statements the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
▪ state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the constitution. The trustees are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Independent examiner's report
To the trustees of
Greenbank Pool
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of Greenbank Pool (the CIO) for the year ended 30 September 2025, which are set out on pages 8 to 22.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity trustees of the CIO you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’).
I report in respect of my examination of the CIO’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent examiner’s statement
Since the CIO’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW), which is one of the listed bodies.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
(1) accounting records were not kept in respect of the CIO as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
(2) the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
(3) the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view' which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Greenbank Pool
Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 30 September 2025
1. Accounting policies
a) General information and basis of preparation
Greenbank Pool is a charitable incorporated organisation registered in England and Wales. The registered office address is Greenbank House, 44 High Street, Street, BA16 0EQ.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement 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 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).
Greenbank Pool meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note.
b) Going concern basis of accounting
The accounts have been prepared on the assumption that the charity is able to continue as a going concern, which the trustees consider appropriate having regard to the current level of unrestricted reserves. There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.
c) Income
Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Income from the government and other grants, whether 'capital' grants or 'revenue' grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.
Income received in advance of the provision of goods or services is deferred until criteria for income recognition are met.
d) Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity: this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.
e) Funds accounting
Endowment funds are funds which are held on trust to be retained for the benefit of the charity as a capital fund. Where the trustees must permanently maintain the whole of the fund it is referred to as permanent endowment and such a fund cannot normally be spent as if it were income. Where the trustees have a power of discretion to convert endowed capital into income, it is referred to as expendable endowment. The assets held in the endowment fund are the shares in C & J Clark limited, certain freehold properties and a bank account. The trustees may apply the annual income at their discretion towards the promotion of the objects of the charity.

Greenbank Pool
Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 30 September 2025
1. Accounting policies (continued)
e) Funds accounting (continued)
Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of the charity. Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose.
f) Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.
g) Allocation of support and governance costs
Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Governance costs are the costs associated with the governance arrangements of the charity, including the costs of complying with constitutional and statutory requirements and any costs associated with the strategic management of the charity’s activities. These costs have been allocated in full to charitable activities.
h) Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write down the cost of each asset to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life. The depreciation rates in use are as follows:
Freehold property 50 years on a straight line basis Swimming pool plant and equipment 2 - 5 years on a straight line basis
No depreciation is charged on freehold land.
Items of equipment are capitalised where the purchase price exceeds £100. Fixed assets that have been donated have been valued at the trustees' best estimate of fair value at the date of the gift.
i) Impairment of fixed assets
A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date.
j) Unlisted investments
Unlisted investments have been revalued to reflect valuations carried out by S & W Group at a date closest to the balance sheet date, which is deemed to be their fair value. Any gain or loss, whether realised or unrealised, is taken to the Statement of Financial Activities.
k) Stock
Shop stock is included at the lower of cost or net realisable value.

Greenbank Pool
Notes to the financial statements
For the year ended 30 September 2025
1. Accounting policies (continued)
l) Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
m) Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
n) Creditors
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
o) Financial instruments
The trust only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently recognised at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
p) Pension costs
The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme for its employees. There are no further liabilities other than that already recognised in the SOFA.
q) Accounting estimates and key judgements
In the application of the charity's accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods.
The key sources of estimation uncertainty that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements are described below:
Depreciation
As described in note 1(h) to the financial statements, depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write down the cost of each asset to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life. There is no depreciation charged on land.
Land is held at historic cost, where there is a sale price recorded. Where the land has not been purchased, the deemed cost is based on trustee valuation in relation to the market.
