Independent Examiner’s Report to Brumby Gymnastics Academy

The Trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the period ended 31 March 2025.

The financial statement have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 of the financial statements and comply with the charity's (governing document) the Charities Act 2011 and “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).

Objectives and activities

The promotion of community participation in healthy recreation in particular by providing sporting facilities for participation in a variety of gymnastic disciplines and other comparable sporting activities as a means to promote healthy and active lifestyles.

Public benefit

The Trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the Charity should undertake.

Achievements and performance.

Significant activities and achievements have been made against the set objectives.

Staffing

Two coaches have successfully completed the level 3 women’s artistic gymnastics course and are currently putting the new knowledge into practice.

There are a number of young learners who have undertaken their core proficiency course and are continuing to develop leaderships skills under the guidance of experienced coaches.

Generally, within the academy, opportunities for enhancing the skills of coaches have been supported with CPD opportunities for adding additional qualifications as well as higher level qualifications.

Programme

Classes have continued for recreational, competition, adult and boys along with sessions for pre-school parent and toddler groups. Children who are home schooled attend a session at the gym which has also been established with great success.

A new initiative has seen taster sessions offered in some North Lincolnshire schools working in collaboration with the council.

Facility / Equipment

The lack of floor space at the current facility means the amount of sessions and numbers is limited and so to support with the expansion plans a Government UKSPF grant for £9,000 has been secured. The plans are to expand the overall footprint of the building in 2025.

The Academy has purchased additional pre-school equipment to support the new ventures as listed above.

Annual safety checks on all equipment continue to be in place and yearly checks are undertaken by Continental Sports.
