Shoalstone Seawater Pool Trustees’ Report For the Year Ended 31 May 2025
The Charity is managed by its Board of Trustees, who meet bi-monthly. Working groups consisting of trustees and volunteers meet as and when needed, and focus on Operations, Finance, Funding, and Events and Activities, passing recommendations to the Board as necessary for decision-making.
The day-to-day running of the Shoalstone site is overseen by David Thomas, the full-time Pool Operations Manager, with support from Sean Castle, the part-time Caretaker. 8 seasonal lifeguards were recruited over the Summer of 2024.
The Pool could not operate without support from its volunteers, who provide hands-on support with pool cleans, maintenance, and event running and organisation. Currently, we have 64 registered volunteers.
The Trustees serving during the period and since the period end are as follows:
J Stock (Chair) S Bell (Resigned 12/11/2025) D Cooper S Cracknell (Appointed 03/02/2025) S Furminger (Resigned 12/11/2025) M Furness (Appointed 03/02/2025) D Gershinan (Resigned 07/11/2024) A Heard R Manley A Plowman L Ross (Appointed 03/02/2025) S Thompson (Resigned 07/11/2024) K Worts (Resigned 07/11/2024)

Achievements and Performance
Pool operations have continued as normal over the 2024 to 2025 period.
We have continued to provide free access for all to the pool, ensuring that the economically disadvantaged gain the health and social benefits of the pool community.
We have built on the weekly health and well-being activities, increasing the frequency of these events, starting with our well-being day in May. We were granted a Coop Community funds to widen the activities we provide and this allowed us to put on activities for the younger children, to encourage their use of the site. The Halogi Sauna and swim activities also proved very popular.
Having finalised our Government Community Ownership Fund application in April 2024, we heard that we were successful in our Save Shoalstone From the Waves bid in December 2024.
The grant awarded was made up of a £514,000 capital grant and £39,750 revenue grant, which on top of the £180,000 match funding raised gave a total project fund of £733,750. This great news meant we were able to go ahead with works to secure the pool future for many years to come. During Spring 2025 we appointed a Project Manager for these works, Sef Allali, who provided further information to COF to assure them that we were able to complete the project within a 12-month period. We finally signed the grant agreement in April 2025. A project group was formed to oversee the works, consisting of the Pool Operations Manager, a volunteer with engineering/planning experience and 3 trustees. The design stage of the project then started in earnest, with full designs being drawn up, further engineering surveys commissioned, final tender documents issued and planning applications submitted.
In partnership with Brixham Heritage Museum we were successful in our application for a Torbay Local Heritage grant of around £6,500 to carry out the erection of 6 display boards at Shoalstone Pool telling stories of bygone ages, starting with the pre-history age through to modern day Brixham, working with the local community on their content and design.
Once the Museum had produced the text and the printers had produced proofs of the boards, we held various meetings of the steering group to review the content and style of the panels. We held a further meeting with the Brixham Sea Rangers, SRS Churchill, who provided input on the style and content of the boards from the perspective of young people aged 9 to 18 years. The wall at the pool on which the boards were to be sited was cleaned and repairs made prior to a new mural being painted by a local artist Mark Bell. More recent photographs of Brixham scenes were provided by a local photographer, Chris Slack, who kindly agreed to our using the photographs free of charge. We liaised with Melanie Border, the English Riviera UNESCO Geopark Co-ordinator, in relation to the content of the boards that concerned Brixham’s place

within the English Riviera Geopark. At the opening event on 29th March the Mayor of Torbay gave a speech and declared the project launched.
Kiosk and Restaurant Tenancy Agreements
Having signed the 30-year lease with Brixham Town Council in May 2023, we continued with the necessary legal changes to negotiate direct leases between our CIO and the Kiosk and Restaurant Tenants. An independent rent assessment was commissioned and negotiations started to draw up new leases for both of these properties.
Discharging of Planning Conditions for Beach Hut Village
We continued to work to discharge the planning conditions imposed by Torbay Planning Committee for our beach hut village. This important project looks to increase revenue for the pool site.
The Trustees have had due regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Income for the year was £305,421 (2024: £232,638), of which £175,539 (2024: £71,556) was restricted. Against this, funds of £122,255 (2024: £161,342) were spent, £8,052 (2024: £31,387) of which was spent on restricted projects.
The net surplus for the year was therefore £183,166 (2024: £71,296), which is comprised of a restricted fund surplus of £101,254 and an unrestricted fund surplus of £81,912 (2024: restricted fund surplus of £40,169 and unrestricted fund surplus of £31,127), leaving reserves carried forward as at 31 March 2025 of £336,691 (2024: £153,435), of which £180,015 was restricted (2024: £78,761).
Reserves policy
Trustees believe it is prudent to have unrestricted reserves amounting to a sum sufficient to cover salaries and running costs for 2 months of peak summer expenditures in case of a significant drop in funding. This would equate to approximately £36,000.
Total reserves on 31 March 2025 totalled £336,691 (2024: £153,525), of which £180,01 (2024: £78,762) was restricted. The unrestricted reserves were £156,676 (2024: £74,763). The charity is comfortably over its reserves policy; however, the Trustees also recognise the need to build up free reserves to meet the capital requirements of the pool and to fund improvements and expansion of the facility.
Separate earmarked reserve funds will be set up as needed for specific projects but will not be reported separately. Trustees regularly monitor the amount of money held in the accounts of Shoalstone Seawater Pool CIO to ensure there is sufficient money to cover reserves as defined above.
Any expenditure of the reserve funds must be approved by the Board of Trustees, and the nature and reason for the expenditure fully documented.
FUTURE PLANS
We plan to complete the Shoalstone Pool Structural Repair Project by December 2025 and continue fundraising to initiate the next phase of works, to grout the outer NW buttress, retank the pool, repair the ramp, and build the paddling pool.
Further works will be undertaken, including the building of the Beach Hut Village, so that it is up and running by May 2026.
Finalise the leases for the Kiosk and Restaurant, and look into initiating various swimming well-being activities on the pool site.
Lastly, to put together a programme of events for the Pool Centenary in 2026.

Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities
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 & 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 of the income and expenditure of the charity for that period. In preparing these 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 judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards 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 business.
The trustees are responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and 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 trust deed/constitution. They 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.
The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the charity and financial information included on the charity's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

Independent examiners report to the Trustees of Shoalstone Seawater Pool.
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts for Shoalstone Seawater Pool (“the charity”) for the year ended 31 March 2025.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity 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 all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
Independent examiner’s statement
Since the charity’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 & Wales, 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:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or
-
the accounts do not comply with these records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of the 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.

Shoalstone Seawater Pool Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 May 2025
1 Accounting policies
The principle accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are:
1.1 Basis of accounting
The financial statements have been prepared in £ sterling on the historical cost basis and 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 charity 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(s).
1.2
Going concern
There are no material uncertainties about the charity’s ability to continue. The charity prepares budgets and forecasts for revenue income and expenditure, and a capital budget for the pool repair works being undertaken. These budgets and forecasts (which are monitored and reported against regularly) do not show any signs of concern, which is in line with the trustees' expectations and supports the conclusion.
1.3 Income
Income from donations is recognised on a cash basis, in the year the income is physically received, except when the donors specify that they must be used in future accounting periods or donor conditions have not been fulfilled, then the income is deferred.
Bequests and legacies are included when entitlement is established, it is probable that the amount will be received, and the amount receivable can be estimated with sufficient accuracy.
Income from grants is recognised in the year in which they are receivable. Grants without performance conditions are presented within donations and legacies and within charitable activities when performance criteria apply.
Income from government 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. Where no conditions are attached to the grant income they are recognised within donations and legacies and where conditions relating to performance of services are attached, grant income is recognised in income from charitable activities within the Statement of Financial Activities.
Income from contracts for the supply of services is recognised with the delivery of the contracted service. This is classified as unrestricted funds unless there is a contractual requirement for it to be spent on a particular purpose and returned if unspent, in which case it may be regarded as restricted.

Shoalstone Seawater Pool Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 May 2025
1.4 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates:
-
expenditure on raising funds includes the costs of all fundraising activities, events, noncharitable trading activities, and the sale of donated goods.
-
Expenditure on charitable activities includes all costs incurred by a charity in undertaking activities that further its charitable aims for the benefit of its beneficiaries, including those support costs and costs relating to the governance of the charity apportioned to charitable activities.
-
Other expenditure includes all expenditure that is neither related to raising funds for the charity nor part of its expenditure on charitable activities.
All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned between the activities they contribute to on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis.
During the year, the charity refocused activities into 3 key projects. Accordingly, the support cost allocation has been updated to reflect these projects, with the split based on an estimation of the use of the resources of the charity across the projects.
1.5
Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost or valuation less estimated residual value of each asset over its expected useful life as follows:
Fixtures & Fittings 20% straight line Plant & Machinery 20% straight line Swimming pool restoration 2% straight line
Swimming pool restoration is to be depreciated on a straight line basis over the next 50 years upon completion. No depreciation will be charged until this point.
Tangible fixed assets for use by the charity are capitalised where the cost is greater than or equal to £50.
1.6 Debtors
Trade debtors and accrued income are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered and any impairment necessary. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
1.7 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.
1.8 Creditors
Creditors 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 are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

Shoalstone Seawater Pool Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 May 2025
1.9 Fund accounting
Funds held by the charitable company are one of the following types:-
-
Unrestricted general funds – these funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objects at the discretion of the Trustees.
-
Restricted funds – these funds can only be used for the particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when funds raised are for a specific purpose.
-
Further explanations of the nature and purpose of each fund are included in the notes to the financial statements.
1.10 Pension
The Charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions are expensed as they become payable.
1.11 Foreign currencies
Foreign currency transactions are initially recorded in the functional currency by applying the spot exchange rate as at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the exchange rate ruling at the reporting date, with any gains or losses being taken to the statement of financial activities.
1.12 Financial instruments
The charity only holds basic financial instruments as defined in FRS 102. The financial assets and liabilities of the charity and their measurements are as follows:
Financial assets – trade and other debtors are basic financial instruments and are debt instruments measured at amortised cost. Investment portfolios are basic financial instruments measured at fair value through the income and expenditure account. Prepayments are not financial instruments.
Cash at bank is classified as a basic financial instrument and is measured at face value.
Financial liabilities – trade creditors, accruals and other creditors are financial instruments, and are measured at amortised cost. Taxation and social security are not included in the financial instruments disclosure definition. Deferred income is not deemed to be a financial liability, as the cash settlement has already taken place and there is an obligation to deliver services rather than cash or another financial instrument.
