## Section D                      Achievements and performance 

> **Summary Trustees’ Annual Report of the main achieveme nts of the Dolphins Recreation Centre charity** For the Year 01 April 2024 – 31 March 2025 **during the 1. Introduction year** 

The Trustees present their report for the year ended 31 March 2025. This year has been one of significant progress and challenge, with the continued development of the new hall remaining the primary focus of the charity’s efforts. 

While this major capital project has demanded substantial time, energy and financial commitment from Trustees and volunteers alike, the Recreation Centre has continued to fulfil its core objective of providing high-quality sporting and community facilities for local residents. 

## **2. Objectives and Activities** 

The charitable objective of Dolphins Recreation Centre is to provide and maintain facilities for recreation, sport and community activities for the benefit of the local community. 

Throughout the year, the recreation ground has continued to support: 

- **Cricket** 

- **Football** 

- **Rugby** 

These sports remain central to the Centre’s purpose, with teams and participants across all age groups making regular use of the grounds. 

In addition to sporting activities, the buildings have continued to host a range of communitybased activities, including: 

- Film screenings 

- Dramatic productions and rehearsals 

- Youth groups 

- Community coffee mornings 

Alongside these, a number of commercial but community-focused activities have operated from the Centre, including: 

- Dance classes 

- Exercise and fitness groups 

The Trustees remain committed to maintaining a balance between community access and commercial hires to ensure long-term sustainability. 



## **3. New Hall Development** 

The continuation and near completion of the new hall has been the dominant focus of the year. 

Significant progress has been made toward finishing the build, and Trustees have worked extensively to secure additional funding required to bring the project to completion. We are pleased to acknowledge successful grant funding from: 

- Cotswold District Council 

- Tetbury Town Council (Community Infrastructure Levy funding) 

This funding has been essential in enabling the project to progress towards completion. 

The scale and complexity of the development has inevitably occupied a considerable proportion of Trustees’ time and resources during the year. While this has placed pressure on routine operational matters, Trustees believe the long-term benefits of the new facility will be transformational for the Centre and the wider community. 

## **4. Hall Usage and Income** 

Private parties and functions have continued to be below pre-pandemic and historic levels. This reduction has had a noticeable impact on hall income during the year. 

Feedback indicates that the ageing condition and overall state of the existing hall has been a significant factor in reduced desirability for private hire. The Trustees recognise this as a key issue affecting revenue generation. 

However, with the new hall nearing completion, we are optimistic that: 

- The improved quality and appearance of the facility 

- Modern amenities 

- Enhanced accessibility and flexibility 

will significantly increase the attractiveness of the venue for private functions, celebrations and community events. 

Early interest suggests that demand is likely to strengthen once the new building is operational. 

## **5. Financial Overview** 

The financial year has been characterised by: 

- Continued capital expenditure on the new hall 

- Active grant fundraising 

- Pressure on operational income due to reduced private hire 

Trustees have carefully managed cash flow to ensure the Centre remains financially stable while progressing the capital build. 



A full financial statement is provided separately. 

## **6. Volunteers and Trustees** 

The Trustees wish to record their sincere thanks to: 

- Fellow Trustees 

- Volunteers 

- Grounds teams  User groups 

whose dedication and support have ensured that sporting and community activities have continued uninterrupted despite the demands of the development project. 

## **7. Looking Ahead** 

The forthcoming year is expected to mark a significant milestone with the opening of the new hall. 

Trustees anticipate that the improved facilities will: 

- Increase community engagement 

- Restore and grow private hire income 

- Strengthen long-term financial sustainability 

- Enhance the reputation of Dolphins Recreation Centre as a key community hub 

While the past year has required patience and persistence, Trustees remain confident that the investment of time and resources will yield substantial benefits for the whole community in the years ahead. 

## **Section E                    Financial review** 

The Charity has no policy on reserves. The current account balance is **Brief statement of the charity’s** typically between 6 months and 12 months of normal expenditure. **policy on reserves Details of any funds materially in** None **deficit**

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the above charity for the year ended 31 March 2025 

As the charity’s trustees of the Charity, you are responsible for the preparation of 


the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charity Act 2011 (“the 2011 Act”). 

I report in respect of my examination of your charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (“the 2011 Act”).  In carrying out my examination, I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act. 


I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention (other than that disclosed below *) in connection with the examination which gives me cause to believe that: 

- Accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Act or 

- The accounts do not accord with the accounting records 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
