Chair Report
Merger of Gateshead and Whickham and Derwentside swimming clubs
This has been a rnomentous year for the club, following the decision to merge Gateshead
and Whickham swimming club and Derwentside swimming clubs, which was finalised with
Swim England on July 31" 2024.
Challenges faced by Gateshead and Whickham and Derwentside swimming clubs
Bolh fomier clubs had been facing significant challenges prior to the merger.
Gateshead and Whickham swimming club had been struggling to maintain its financial
viability for several years and had only survived through running two successful
Crowdfunding campaigns in 2021 and early 2023 and due to a significant personal donation
in April 2023. In addition, coaching resour￿$ became increasingly stretched following the
departure of the head coach, Ross Bradley, in the summer of 2023.
Derwentside swimming club had operated an unusual model for many years with the head
coach, Paul Woodley being employed by the council and monthly swimming fee5 being paid
by parents to Durham County council. In the 2023124 year the council announced that that
the club would need to change its operating model significantly, and be run independently
from the council, who would also no longer employ the head Goach. This required the club
to be run in a very different way going forward.
Both clubs were also struggling to provide sufficient volunteer resource to support coaches
and swimmers at galas.
In late 2023, discussions began between executive committee members of both clubs on a
potential merger. A detailed plan was developed. logether with other required deliverables
for a merger of the two clubs, following the Swim England methodology for club mergers.
This included engaging the members of both Glubs in the rationale for the proposed merger
and how the merged club would be structured.
Rationale for merging Gateshead and WhiGkham and Derwentside swimming clubs
The rationale for the merger was to create a larger and stronger club with a significant
increase in swimmer numbers and increased resources available for..
coaching and teaching swimmers
planning and managing our own galas
managing entries to galas made by our swimmers
supporting and safeguarding our swimmers at galas and during training sessions
membership management
financial and systems management
maintaining Swimmark accreditation required by Swim England
There was also a good synergy in coaching capabilities, as the fomer Derwentside head
coach has
reat ex
ertisé and ex
erience in coachin
and develo
the senior

perfomance squad and the former Gateshead and Vvhickham head coach has great
expertise and experience in coaching and developing the younger swimmers. The other
coaches also have the necessary experience and expertise lo cover all the other swimming
squads.
The merged club now has access to three more pools for training, compared to the former
Gateshead and Whickham swimming club which mainly used the Gateshead Council run
pools. The hourly pool hire charges al these additional pools in Birtley, Consetl and Stanley
were significantly lower than the hourly pool hire charges from Gateshead Council in the
year to 31, March 2025. which has significantly reduced the average cost of pool hire for
the merged club
The merged club was able to adopt the G&W organi5ation structure {Charitable Incorporated
Organisationl which provides the dual benefits of being a charity and also having limited
liability for the trustees of the club. The former trustees of G&W also had significant
experien￿ of running a fully independent club.
The merger proposal was agreed by the members of both swimming clubs at a special
meeting on May 18th, 2024. At this meeting, the former Gommrttee of Derwentside swimming
lub agreed that Iheir swimmers and officials would be transferred into the existing
Gateshead and Whickham charttable incorporated organisation, once the merger was
approved by Swim England, and this would be the organisation structure forthe merged club
going forward. This enabled the merged club to continue as a CIO, with the same charity
number as the G&W CIO, retaining the benefits of being a charity together with limited
liability for the trustees.
The mergerwas approved by Swim England on July 31st 2024, following which the members
of the merged club voted to change the name of the club to De￿entSIde and Gateshead
Swim Team on August 9th 2024.
The trustees for the merged club were Steven Speighl, Matthew Grant and Gill Reid (who
were previously truslees of Gateshead and Whickham Amateur Swimming Club CIO), and
two new Iruslees were added on July 31, 2024, being Darren Maxwell, formerly chair of
DeMent5ide swimming Glub, and Graham Robinson. one of the executive committee
members for Detwentside swimming club. Two ofthe trustees of Gateshead and Whickham
swimming club, Janet Robinson and Rachel Morris, resigned at the same time as Darren
Maxwell and Graham Robinson were added as trustees. Steven and Darren were the joint
chairs ofthe merged club from September 24 to March 25. Steven resigned as a trustee on
May 24th 2025 due to work commitments and Darren took on the role of chair. Gillian Reid
resigned as a trustee on April 15th 2025 and was repla￿d by Diane Jamison on May 12
2025.
The D&G trustees agreed to defer the date when the club would trade as a new entity until
131 September 2024, as the swimmers were on their summer break until late August and
various activities were required to facilitate the merger over the next few weeks. This
included the parents of swimmers from Derwentside setting up new standing orders or direct
debits for their monthly fees by the start of September to the G&W bank account and the
transfer of the swimming memberships for all the Derwentside swimmers to the D&G swim
team CIO.
The D&G accounts forthe yearto 31. March 2025therefore include income and expenditure
transactions for just Gateshead and Vvhickham Swimming club lo the end of August
2024. From September onwards, the D&G accounts include transactions for the merged
club.
Reopening of Birtley Swimming Centre following a community asset transfer

The former G&W treasurer, Matthew Grant. with support from Steven Speight, led a
successful project to reopen Birtley swimming centre as a Community pool in September
2024. following a Community Asset Transferfrom Gateshead Council. which closed the pool
in July 2023. The rationale for the former G&Wtreasurer to take on this project was to secure
lower costwatertime at another pool in the Gateshead area forthe merged club's swimmers,
as Gateshead Council had informed G&W in March 2023 that they intended to significantly
increase their pool hire charges and also reduce the available water time for G&W.
The project team raised over £400k to reopen the pool. which was required to.-
replace the old, inefficient boilers, storage tanks and other associated assets
repair and refurbish the waterslide
replace the existing lighting with more efficient LED lighting
resurface the car park
install roller shutters on the doors and mesh grills on the windows
install and configure new IT systems and infrastructure
Install new signage al the pool
purchase new equipment required for health and safety and cleaning
purchase new lane ropes and an inflatable obstacle course
The Trustees of Birtley Community Pool took over the pool on the 31¥1 May 2024 and
managed the procurement and delivery of the above works over the next three months,
They also recruited and trained Ihe employee team who now run the pool and prodU￿d all
the policies, procedures, risk assessments and other documents which were required by
Gateshead Council before they agreed that the Community Asset Transfer could take place.
Since September 2024, Birtley Community Pool has provided a significant proportion of the
water time used by the merged club for training. The pool hire costs at Birtley are also
significantly lower than those charged by Gateshead Council for Dunston pool, which is the
other pool in the Gateshead area used by the merged club.
Impact of the work of the charity on its beneficiaries
The creation of a stronger and larger merged club during the 24125 year was required to
ensure Ihal competitive swimming would be sustainable in the Gateshead and Derwentside
areas. If both fomier clubs had Continued to operate as separate entities, it is very likely that
neither would still exist. due to the challenges that both were facing prior lo the merger.
The club merger has therefore enabled parents and swimmers of both former clubs lo
continue to enjoy the benefits of competitive swimming, swim skills development and learn
to swim in their local area as part of a stronger merged club. In February 2025, the club
currently had 206 swimmers and 58 club officials registered with Swim England. Including
parents of the junior swimmers, the club has over 400 dired beneficiaries.
Head Coach Report from Paul Woodley
The inaugural competitive season following the club merger has been extremely successful.
I would like lo formally recognise the dedication of all members, ¢oaches. volunteers, and
committee representatives, both past and present, who contributed to what was
demanding yel highly rewarding transition. Bringing together two established clubs with
strong histories required patience, collaboration, and commilment. Throughout the process,
the collective focus remained fimly on swimmer welfare, opportunity creation, and the
development of a sustainable performance pathway.
Club Growth and Programme Development

Our first season after the merger delivered positive outcornes across every level of the
programme. Athletes and coaches alike demonstrated professionalism and ambition,
resulting in strong performances and sleady progression. The Skills Development squads
grew consistently throughout the year, highlighting a healthy pipeline for the future while also
supporting financial targets.
The introduction of Mini Meets proved particularly effective, offering swimmers completing
Stages 8-10 an accessible and supportive introduction to competitive swimming The Junior
League squad produced outstanding results, winning the Division 2 Final and showcasing
excellent technical skills, teamwork, and competitive spirit.

Achievements against objectives set

The Chair's report above outlines the rationale for and the steps taken to deliver the merger
of Gateshead and Vvhickham Swimming Club with Derwentside swimming club, which was
a key objective for this year. It also sets out the tasks required to reopen Birtley swimming
pool, which was also a key objeGtive to oblain a¢￿sS to more water time for squad training
in the Gateshead area, at a lower cost than the pool hire charges from Gateshead council
The Head Coaches, report details our achievements in the pool and the progress made
against the objectives of growing our competitive squads in temis of experience and skill at
galas, maximising the number of swimmers qualifying for County, Regional and National
competitions.
The Financial Review section provides details of the club's financial performance in the
24125 year, in which the ¢lub made an operating surplus of £15.6k and reduced its net
current liabilities from £17.8k to £5.7k, thereby making progress towards another key merger
ob'ective of im
rovin
the financial sustainabilil of the mer
ed club.
Improving our inclusivity and affordability
We remain committed to extending the service we offer to a wide range oflhe inhabitants of
the Gateshead and Dementside areas. This year, to keep our pnces competitive and
accessible to as many families as possible, we have..
Kept our annual membership fee at £25, one of the lowest in the North East
Maintained our monthly fees atthe same level as the Gateshead and Whickham fees
were prior to the merger
Continued lo offer a siblinglfamily discount on monthly fees of 50/0 for families with
two swimmers and 100/0 for families with three or more swimmers
Continued with a flexible approach on feeslattendance for athletes on an elite
pathway sponsored by another recognised Sports Governing Body
Continued lo consider individual circumstances of existing members if they
encounter unexpected financial difficulty and need short term assistance with fees
Continued to offer a reduction on monthly fees for any athlete with a long-term injury
which prevents them from swimming
Continued our hardship fund whereby we can offer a 500h reduction in fees for new
members if they meet certain criteria - this is limited to up to 1 00/0 of our competitive
membership
A number of these measures are unique to our swim club and enable us to offer our
services l enjoyment of the sport to a broader range of participants than would olherwise
be possible, particularly as the Gateshead and Derwentside areas have lower than
avera
e levels of household income.
Performance of fundraising activities against objectives set
The club raised additional funds from the following sources during the 23124..
A donation of £6000 from a supporter in July 2024. which enabled the Gateshead
and Whickham club to reduce il's pool hire debtto one month (the normal creditterm)
prior to the merger with Detwentside Swimming Club
Donations tolalling £24.1k between September 2024 and January 2025 from the
former Derwentside swimming club. This was used to PLbrchase gym equipment
costing £3268 and to pay for some of the club's operating costs between September
2024 and January 2025, particularly the costs of the fornier Oerwentside coaches

Financial Review
Review of the chari
's financial
osition at the end of the
eriod
The first five months only relate to the activities of Gateshead and Whickham swimming
club. whilst the remaining seven months relate to the activities of the merged club,
DeNentside and Gateshead swim team.
The Club reported an operating surplus of£15,647 forthe yearto 31.03.25, an improvement
of £11,561 on the previous financial year which reported a small surplus of £4,086.
The main favourable variances compared to the previous year results are explained as
follows
An increase of£33.8k in monthly and annual membership fees, due to the increase
in the number of swimmers over the last seven months of the year, following the
merger.
An increase of £18k from gala income, due to the increase in the number of galas
hosted by the merged club compared to G&W. There were only 3 galas in 2023124
compared to 5 galas in 2045125. This is partially offset by an increase in own gala
costs of£5.8k compared to 23124 for the same reason_
An increase of £11.6k in income from donations, gifts and grant funding
The total of favourable variances explained above is £63.4k
These favourable variances were partially offset by these main adverse variances-.
An increase of £24.6k in coaches monthly fees, reflecting a significant increase in
oaching resources required to support the significant growth in the number of
swimmers following the merger
An increase of £9.3k in coaches gala expenses and gala attendance, reflecting
more coaches required to support Ihe larger number of swimmers participating in
more galas
An increase of £8.4k in pool hire costs, due to the use of more pools by the merged
club from September 2024. This increase would have been higher but for the lower
pool hire rales charged by the pools at Birtley, Louisa and Consett.
A reduction of £2.5k in the income from other fundraising activities
An adverse variance of £1.5k relating to the profit made by the presentation night
and Christmas party held by G&W in 2023124. Equivalent events were not held in
the 2024125 year
The total of adverse varianGes explained above is £46.3k
At the end of the 31.03.25 financial year, the club had net current liabilities of £5.7k, £12.2k
lower than the £17.9k net current liabilities at the previous year end.
Analysis of the financial result for the 2024125 year
The merged club initially experienced a significant drop of more than 200/0 in swimrner
numbers, which was much greater than expected, reducing its monthly income. The club
had also initially hired more pool time than was needed once the swimmer numbers had
reduced. The combination of these two factors meant the club was losing about £5k per
month for the first four months, excluding profits from galas. The pool time and coaching
costs were rationalised significantly in December which significantly reduced these monthly
losses from January 2025 onwards.

During this period, some of the coaches fees, totalling £19.1k, were paid for from one of
the former Derwentside club's bank accounts, as there were insufficient funds in the
merged club's account pay for all the club's costs. This has been included in the charity
awounts as a donation by the former Derwentside club to the merged club.
The financial result for the year can be broken into three key elements
Profits made by the galas at Dunston and the Louisa Centre
Donations received in the year

Operating surplus for the year
£26.3k
£30.1k

for holdin
The club's reserves policy is as follows..
Our objective is to maintain an amount of money in reserve which equates lo three
months of operating costs, which is currently £60k.
This amount would be held in reserve to meet unexpected changes which have an
adverse impact on the club's financial position. Thes would include significant cost
increases, significanl reductions in our swimmer numbers, or external impacts such
as another pandemic Closing the swimming poo15
Amount of reser4es held
The club had a small reserve of £4.1k at 31.03.25, an improvement of £15.6k on the
revious
ear when the club had ne
ative reserves of £11.5k
Reasons for holdin
zero resep4es
The club had a negative reserve of £11.5k at 31.03 24 due to incurring a significant
operating deficit of £27k in the financial year to 31.03.22, which was partially offset by the
small surpluses made in the 22123 and 23124 years.
The 21122 year was the first year after COVID, when swimmer numbers had reduced
significantly (by nearly 400h} following the extensive period when pools were closed and
£1 Ok funding that the club had previously received on a regular basis from the Community
Foundation grant was discontinued.
Explanation of an
uncertainties about the chari
continuin
asa
oin
concern
Since the merger in September 2024, the club has made further significant changes to
improve its financial position.
reserves statin
are held
A small increase in our monthly fees, averaging 100/0 across all squads, was
introduced in April 2025 as a result of a significant increase in the pool hire Gharges
from Durham County Council for their pools at Stanley and Consett
The pool hire charges were reduced significantly from January 2025 onwards,
following a review of the squad numbers and their training requirements. The
number of lane5 required for many sessions was reduced and some squads began
to share a pool for training. The reductions in the number of lanes and Ihe removal
of some sessions were done at the pools which had the higher pool hire charges.
Further opportunilies have been taken to rationalise pool time since then. where
possible
Savings have also been made in Coaching staff costs in four phases. Some initial
rationalisation of coaching costs was achieved when the pool water time was
rationalised in January 2025. A further saving was achieved following the
retirement of Ken Nesworthy, formerly the G&W head coach, in March 25 as the
replacement coaches were on lower rates of pay. In September 2025, more
savings were made following the departure of one of the Coaches, whose squads
were taken on by our existing coaches. Finally, the recent change, whereby our
head coach has become the
oint head coach for D&G and Sunderland swimmin
io

clubs, has significantly reduced our coaching costs, as his costs are now shared
with Sunderland swimming club
The club successfully applied for a grant of £6000 from Leisureworks which was
received in May 2025 and will be used to support the development of younger
swimmers in our Leam To Swim scheme and to promote the club and attract new
swimmers at the entry level.
As a result of the above initiatives, the club's financial position has improved further sin

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's
trustees consider thal an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities
Act 2011 {' the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject lo audit under company law and is
eligible for independent examination, it 15 my responsibility to..
examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act,

Commission (under section 145151{b) of the Charities Act), and
to slate whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examinevs statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity
Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity
and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes
onsideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations
from the trustees canceming any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide
all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as
to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view, and the report is limited to those
matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no rnaterial matters have come to my attention which
gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect..
Ihe accounting records were not kept in a¢cordance with section 130 of the
Charities Act., or
the accounts did not accord with the accounting records", or
the accounts did not comply with the applicable requirement5 concerning the form
and content of accounts set out in the Charilies (Accounts and Reports} Regulations
2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a'true and fai¢, view which
is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I 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.
