Petersfield Open Air Swimming Pool

Report of the trustees for the period ending 31 December 2022

The trustees are pleased to present their annual report together with the financial statements of the charity and for the period ending 31 December 2022. This being the first year as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO). The trustees have adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP): Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland and (FRS 102) issued on 14 July 2014 and the Charities Act 2011.

Chair’s Report

This annual report reflects the first full operational period of Petersfield Open Air Swimming Pool (POASP) as a CIO (Charitable Incorporated Organisation) with a financial year end concurrent with the calendar year. 2022 was also a first year for our new General Manager, Tom Callingham, who has joined us with over 10 years’ experience as a manager in the sport and leisure industry. Tom has hit the ground running in terms of understanding the pool’s USP, the vision and purpose of the charity and the provision of a community pool to serve the people of Petersfield and surrounding area. He has undertaken certified training where needed and is qualified to train the lifeguards. The trustees believe that Tom is a real asset to the pool and is proving very proficient in his role as General Manager and is popular with the staff, trustees and customers alike.

The team of 7 trustees decided at the start of the year not to be too ambitious in terms of extra offerings to the customers and community. It was the first full year of no Covid restrictions and we resumed similar timetable and non-booking entry operations that we undertook before the pandemic. Lessons continued to be very popular and private hire events were also in high demand. The kitchen (Dive Thru Café) was able to open offering light refreshments and sandwiches as well as snacks and hot drinks. The operations team planned to ensure that there was a variety of different sessions in the timetable to maximise revenue, such as morning lane swimming, children’s inflatable sessions and shorter quick dip / low cost sessions. What was unexpected in the planning of the timetable was the unprecedented spell of very hot weather which put pressure on the pool to turnover people in the longer general swim sessions as we hit maximum bather load for long periods of time. This was unfortunate for those customers waiting long times for entry in the sun, and ultimately damaged the reputation of the pool in its ability to service the community in very hot weather. Improving this aspect is a high priority in our planning for 2023. The season ended with a special celebration for the pool’s 60[th] birthday as it opened in May 1962.

The trustees have decided to implement a new booking system in 2023 so that customers have the ability to guarantee entry, and some swim sessions will also be shorter to allow a turnover of people in hot weather. The long term aims of the CIO remains the same as the original constitution but with a focus on sustainability for both the business and the environment in which it operates in the coming medium to long term future.

Finally a big thank you to all our staff, trustees, volunteers, customers and swimmers for continuing to support our charity within the community of Petersfield.

History, Purpose and Activities

The former charity known as Petersfield Open Air Pool (No:301917) was created on 31 July 1961 with a Deed of trust by Petersfield Urban District Council who thereby made the land available at Heath Road, Petersfield, Hampshire, GU31 4DZ. On 1[st] January 2022 the assets and liabilities of the former charity were transferred to a new Charitable Incorporated Organisation known as Petersfield Open Air Swimming Pool created on 8 September 2021 with the new charity no of 1195755.

The objectives of the Petersfield Open Air Swimming Pool are to promote community participation in healthy recreation by the provision and maintenance of a swimming pool for the benefit of the inhabitants of Petersfield and the surrounding area for the purposes of providing leisure swimming, training facilities, lessons, courses and associated facilities for local individuals, schools and organisations.

Achievements and Performance

The record breaking temperatures of July and August 2022 generated strong demand for swim ticket sales particularly those for family groups. This activity also emphasised the variability and seasonal nature of the pool income profile which may be represented by the following graphs.

Other 2022 Performance Stats and Achievements were as follows:

Financial Review

This report covers the first year of trading for POASP as a CIO with a calendar year financial period. Given which no comparative figures are presented. In addition with the last two years being disrupted by the Covid pandemic (no trading activity in 2020) it is appropriate to re-set the financial objectives and establish new KPI’s for management and monitoring purposes. With this in mind the following observations have been noted and discussed by the Trustees.

a. Trading Results and Budget

The overall revenue surplus of £34,937 was comfortably above the prudent budget albeit primarily attributable to cost and efficiency savings under the expenditure headings of staffing, utilities and maintenance. Trading income was below budget but largely offset by growth in other income including donations, grants and fundraising.

b. Sensitivity of Trading Performance

The sensitivity of swimming activity to weather conditions and its seasonal profile are factors that the Trustees routinely monitor and the planned adoption of a new booking system is expected to improve the stability of swim session income as evidence from comparable Lido businesses indicates.

Given the sensitivity of core trading performance it is recognised that growth in the above headings will help to fund site and facility improvements and to secure the reserve funding policy position to secure the future.

d. Staff Costs

Total staff costs of £87,494 are reported representing 46.8% of total expenditure. Efficient management of this budget was a feature of this expenditure heading which includes on costs, holiday pay and employers’ pension costs. Notwithstanding this position the requisite safe staffing ratios remain an essential priority in the planning of staffing schedules.

e. Bank and Loan Balance

At the year end a total bank balance of £216,281 is reported comprising two separate current accounts which are used for operational and fundraising purposes. This balance includes the remaining cash balance (£31,751) of the Covid Bounce Back Loan taken in 2021 with an initial

8

balance of £40,000. Note 14 to the accounts covers the disclosure requirements of the of the loan which is being repaid over a maximum 6 year term and may be repaid early in full or in part as decided by the Trustees. Interest earning accounts are being evaluated given the recent rise in marginal savings interest rates.

Given the sensitivity of core trading performance it is recognised that growth in the cash balance will help to fund site and facility improvements and to secure the reserve funding policy position to secure the future (see below).

f. 2023 Season Planning Budget

A revenue budget for 2023 has been set with an objective of generating a 10% net surplus to total income ratio, In the current economic climate cost sensitivities of operational, maintenance and utility expenditure are key to the setting of ticket and session prices. The trading income headings are budgeted to increase by approximately 10% given growth and pricing changes including those arising from the adoption of a new booking system.

Reserves Policy

Unrestricted funds (being reserves not represented by fixed assets) are needed to provide funds which can be designated to specific projects to enable these projects to be undertaken at short notice and to cover administration, fund raising and support costs without which the charity could not function. The trustees consider it prudent that the unrestricted reserves level should be sufficient to cover 3 months of staff wages (salaried staff, excluding overtime), 3 months of operations and maintenance (establishment costs), 3 months of administration costs and as a contingency for major maintenance works and unforeseen risk expenditure.

Given these criteria the level is currently set at £100,000 and this is monitored and reviewed by the trustees on a regular basis.

Plans for the Future

The Trustees are working on a new Development Plan for the pool with a focus on the short, medium and long-term position arising from an internal SWOT analysis recently undertaken.

The emerging elements of the plan are as follows.

Time Frame Time Period Emerging Elements
Short-Term 0 – 3 yrs New Booking System, Complete Development & Facility Plan
Refurbishment of Toilet Facilities, Grow Other Income inc Grants
Investigate Lettings Income Opportunities

Structure, Governance and Management

Governing Document and Organistaion

Petersfield Open Air Swimming Pool is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) governed by its constitution dated 14 Dec 2021. The charity has the power to borrow funds, lease equipment, dispose of property, employ & remunerate staff and to deposit or invest funds with all its powers subject to the relevant Charities Act 2011 provisions.

Appointment of trustees

The CIO constitution provides for a minimum of five and a maximum of eight trustees with a provision that the majority reside in the Petersfield Area of charity benefit. All trustees of the charity are appointed for a three year term following a suitable resolution being passed at a formal meeting. Petersfield Town Council are an ‘Appointing Body’ so may nominate one trustee for appointment who will have the same responsibilities as the other trustees.

Trustee induction and training

New trustees will receive (before appointment) the following information: a. A copy of the current version of the charity constitution

b. A copy of the POASP CIO’s latest Trustees’ Annual Report and statement of accounts.

Other elements of new trustee induction will include:

c. A visit to the pool site to meet fellow trustees and the pool manager.

d. A briefing covering the pool history, governance arrangements, activity program, budgetary position and development plans. This will be undertaken by the Chair or other trustees as appropriate.

10

Risk management

The trustees have a risk management strategy which comprises:

an annual review of the risks the charity;

the establishment of systems and procedures to mitigate those risks identified in the plan; and the implementation of procedures designed to minimise any potential impact on the charity should those risks materialise.

This work has identified that financial sustainability is the major long term financial risk for the charity. A key element in the management of financial risk is via a regular review of the reserves policy.

Trustees’ responsibilities in relation to the financial statements

The charity trustees are responsible for preparing a trustees’ annual report and financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

Company law and the law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the charity trustees to prepare financial statements for each year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and the group and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable group for that period. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are required to:

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 1985, the Charities Act 1993, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
