Quedgeley Community Trust
Year To 31st March 2021

## **Independent Examiner's Report To The Trustees Of Quedgeley Community Trust** 

Statement of Assets and Liabilities As At 31st March 2021 pages 1 to 3. 

## **Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner** 

The Trustees of the Charity are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Trustees of the Charity consider that an audit is not required for this year, under section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 and that an independent examination is required. 

It is our responsibility to: 

Examine the accounts under section 43(3)(a) of the 1993 Act; 

To follow procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners under section 43(7)(b) of the 1993 Act and 

To state whether particular matters have come to our attention 

## **Basis of Independent Examiner's Report** 

Our examination was carried our in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes the 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 as Trustees concerning such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required by an audit, and consequently we do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts. 

## **Independent Examiner's Statement** 

In connection with our examination we confirm that no matter has come to our attention which gives us reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements to keep accounting records in accordance with section 41 of the 1993 Act have not been met. 

We also confirm that in our belief the preparation of the accounts and the accounting records comply with the account requirements of the 1993 Act.

Chairman’s Report 2020/21 

Like most groups and charities, it has been a very difficult year for QCT due to the COVID 19 pandemic, this has seen both our income and grant giving drop. However, we have again helped several local groups who without the Trust’s help would be struggling or even non-existent. 

## Quedgeley Show 

The Trust was going to run Quedgeley Show with other groups within the community however due to several lock downs this has not happened. The Trust has said it will endeavour to do this in 2022. 

## Quedgeley Health and Fitness Club 

QHFC provides a useful facility to all of the community. The Gym offers personal training plans, fitness classes, cardiac & stroke rehabilitation classes and hire of badminton, tennis courts and the sports halls. It helps promote a healthy lifestyle for the community.  Due to several forced closedowns due to government restrictions it is without doubt that if we had not had financial support from both central Government via the furlough scheme and grants from Gloucester City Council we would be unable to sustain the losses. However, trading looks positive for 2021/22 and we are hoping that the gym will soon be operating with a profit. 

## QCT Quiz 

The QCT New Year quiz was cancelled due to the pandemic 

## Q Club 

We still remain in partnership with Prospect Training running the Q Club, but this venue has also suffered several forced shutdowns due to the pandemic.. The soft play area has been great success, this has provided a facility for parents and Children to meet on a regular basis to promote community On Thursday’s, 130 to 150 children between the ages of 8 to 11 years regularly attend the club. On Friday’s 110 to 130 children/adults between the ages of 12 to 18 years attend on a regular basis. The Q Club still remains successful and is a beacon for youth provision and family cohesion throughout the County. 

## **Finally** 

I would like to thank Keith Miller and Mike Skidmore my fellow Trustees. Special thanks must go to Sarah Bowden who audits our accounts for free and I would also personally like to thank the rest of the Committee who without all their time and hard work the Trust would not be where it is today. I must also thank the people who give me the most support my Family. We should all be proud of what we have achieved through a very difficult year, however the COVID pandemic is not over and this year again could be very testing.
