THE WIMBLEDON IN SPORTING HISTORY TRUST CIO
TRUSTEES'REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024
The Trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the Wimbledon In Sporting History Trust CIO for the 1 July 2023 to 30 June 2024.
Objectives and activities
a. Policies and objectives
The main objective is to protect, display and promote the local Sporting History of Wimbledon and its immediate neighbours, based primarily in and around AFC Wimbledon's Plough Lane Football stadium, for historical and educational purposes.
In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance 'Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)' new format in January 2017 and 'Public benefit reporting' (PB3)
b. Volunteers
The Charity has a large number of dedicated volunteers all committed to shaping and sharing Wimbledon's rich sporting history. The Trustees would like to thank and pay tribute to all the volunteers for their continued support and dedication.
Achievements and performance
a. Review of activities
These are the second full year accounts for The Wimbledon in Sporting History CIO (WiSH). This was another busy and successful year for WiSH – as it continued to grow and develop into a leading sports heritage charity with a name and reputation reaching well beyond its local boundaries in southwest London.
The charity went from strength to strength under the inspired stewardship of our Managing Director, John Lynch, and his resourceful and dynamic operations team, ensuring that WiSH continued to deliver on its declared ambition to preserve, promote and celebrate the rich and diverse sporting heritage of the Wimbledon area.
Volunteering is at the heart of all that WiSH does, and its team of dedicated and talented volunteers continued to grow, working tirelessly and creatively to enable WiSH to fulfil its remit of telling and sharing the fascinating stories of Wimbledon’s deep sporting past.
As the year ended in June 2024 with the operational side of WISH in fine fettle, the Trustees began reviewing their own set-up, with a view to strengthening the governance of the charity. Work which resulted in personnel changes on the Board and concrete improvements in compliance in the second half of 2024.

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024

“The Greatest Story” physical museum continued to be a great attraction at the Wimbledon stadium, staffed by WiSH volunteers, with exhibits constantly reviewed and refreshed
-
New heritage displays created around the Wimbledon football stadium
-
Designed and created new Wimbledon Football Club honours boards, now on display in the club reception

-
Grew more partnerships: local, national and international
-
Operationally, restructured the whole WiSH team, making Team Leaders more involved in recruitment and retention of volunteers – while maintaining our key One Team ethos

-
True to WiSH’s “Living History” mantra, brought back the Wimbledon Dons Speedway (motorbikes) – with a four team tournament involving other heritage teams at a stadium in Kent. The meeting was sold out raising thousands of pounds, to help pay for the commissioning of a statue of former Wimbledon speedway legend Ronnie Moore (to be installed at the Wimbledon stadium in 2025)

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024
Financial review
a. Going concern
After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies.
Structure, governance and management
a. Constitution
The Wimbledon In Sporting History Trust CIO is a registered charity, number 1195829, and is constituted under a Trust deed.
b. Methods of appointment or election of Trustees
The management of the Charity is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected and co-opted under the terms of the Trust deed.
c. Financial risk management
The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Charity is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the Charity, and are satisfied that systems and procedures are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.
Plans for future periods
The Board of Trustees and Operational Management team continue to focus on the digital museum – while ensuring the physical museum remains fresh and relevant.
The Trustees continue to work to ensure due diligence in the governance of the charity.
Work continues to improve storage facilities for WiSH artefacts, notably on the third floor of the football stadium.
Work continues to build the membership of the Wimbledon Old Players Association, under the new stewardship of Ray Armfield, building closer relations with former Wimbledon players from the men’s and women’s teams, many invited for guest appearances at AFC Wimbledon matches. A reunion dinner featuring the great “Batsford Boys” team of the 1970s taking place in early 2025.
Work continues to build relations with Wimbledon supporters and partners locally, nationally and abroad – with a Worldwide Wombles Weekend taking place in early 2025.
A particular emphasis in 2025 will be on Wimbledon’s Speedway heritage, with ambitious plans to bring former legends of the sport back to Wimbledon for the unveiling of a statue to commemorate former Dons Speedway and world champion Ronnie Moore

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024
Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of The Wimbledon In Sporting History Trust CIO ('the Charity')
I report to the charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 30 June 2024.
Responsibilities and Basis of Report
As the Trustees of the Charity you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act').
I report in respect of my examination of the Charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
Independent Examiner's Statement
Your attention is drawn to the fact that the Charity has prepared the accounts 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) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has been withdrawn.
I understand that this has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
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.
This report is made solely to the Charity's Trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the Charity's Trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an Independent Examiner's Report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charity and the Charity's Trustees as a body, for my work or for this report.

THE WIMBLEDON IN SPORTING HISTORY TRUST CIO
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024
1. General information
The Wimbledon In Sporting History Trust CIO is a registered charity number 1195829. The principal office is Wimbledon Football Stadium, Copper Mill Lane, Wimbledon, London, SW17 DBL.
2. Accounting policies
2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - 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), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.
The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair' view. This departure has involved following the Charities SORP (FRS 102) published in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
The Wimbledon In Sporting History Trust CIO 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.
2.2 Income
All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
The recognition of income from legacies is dependent on establishing entitlement, the probability of receipt and the ability to estimate with sufficient accuracy the amount receivable. Evidence of entitlement to a legacy exists when the Charity has sufficient evidence that a gift has been left to them (through knowledge of the existence of a valid will and the death of the benefactor) and the executor is satisfied that the property in question will not be required to satisfy claims in the estate. Receipt of a legacy must be recognised when it is probable that it will be received and the fair value of the amount receivable, which will generally be the expected cash amount to be distributed to the Charity, can be reliably measured.
Grants are included in the Statement of Financial Activities on a receivable basis. The balance of income received for specific purposes but not expended during the period is shown in the relevant funds on the Balance Sheet. Where income is received in advance of entitlement of receipt, its recognition is deferred and included in creditors as deferred income. Where entitlement occurs before income is received, the income is accrued.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024
2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.3 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been included under expense categories that aggregate all costs for allocation to activities.
Expenditure on raising funds includes all expenditure incurred by the Charity to raise funds for its charitable purposes and includes costs of all fundraising activities events and non-charitable trading.
Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Charity's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.
All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.
2.4 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Tangible fixed assets costing £100 or more are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.
Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.
The Charity operates a museum and has many artefacts and memorabilia, both purchased and donated, with historical qualities relating to the sporting history of Wimbledon. There is an audit trail of the donated items but many are unique and market-based evidence of value does not exist. The Trustees consider that, at this stage, obtaining a reliable cost or valuation for these donated heritage assets will require additional time and resources and so they are not recognised on the balance sheet. When resources are available the Trustees plan to undertake a detailed financial review of the heritage assets based on the guidance in Charities SORP (FRS102) (Oct 2019).
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.
Depreciation is provided on the following basis:
Plant and machinery Fixtures and fittings 25% Office equipment 25% Artefacts and memorabilia 10%
2.5 Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slow-moving stocks. Cost includes all direct costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2024
2. Accounting policies (continued)
2.6 Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and 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.
2.7 Liabilities and provisions
Liabilities 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 settlement can be estimated reliably.
Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.
Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities as a finance cost.
2.8 Financial instruments
The Charity 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 measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
2.9 Fund accounting
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Charity for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.
