| Club activities | ||
| At the ‘Thursday club’ held most Thursday afternoons there is usually entertainment with dancing, tea and biscuits, a raffle and bingo. Three of these afternoons were party afternoons (Valentines, the club’s anniversary and summer parties). 8-10 members play snooker 2 afternoons per week. During the winter months up to 16 members use the club premises on Wednesday and Friday afternoons for short mat bowls and a number also play on Friday afternoon in the summer months. In the summer months a number of members use the nearby municipal bowling green for outdoor bowls three afternoons per week. Members play casual games, internal tournaments as well as fielding a team in a local league. A large group of members visited a local restaurant for a very pleasant Christmas lunch. When not in use for club activities the premises are available for hire to local groups. Some of these groups have the same target audience as the club, thus supporting our aims, but in any event the income helps defray the costs of maintaining our premises. 2 coffee mornings open to the public also brought further income to help with costs. |

Independent Examiner's Report on the Accounts for the Year Ended 31st March 2024 3
The charity's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section
-
43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the Act)) and that an independent examination is needed. It is my responsibility to:-
-
examine the accounts (under section 43 of the Act),
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 43(7)(b) of the Act and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention
My examination was carried out in accordance with the 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 consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you concerning any such matters. The procedures 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 following statement:-
-
1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the Act , and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 1993 Act: have not been met: or
-
2) to which, in my opinion, attentions should be drawn in order to enable a proper
understanding of the accounts to be reached.
