TS Drax Poole Sea Cadets
Ortober 2025
I'm delighted to present the T￿aSUrer'S Report for 2024-2025. This past year h35 been another busy and rew3rding
one for our unit. and I'm pleased to share how we've managed our finances to support everything our cadets do.
Every pound we receive, whether through subs. grants. or fundraising, is used carefully and wtth purpose. Thanks to
your ongoin8 SUPPOrt, we've conrinued to provlde hi8h-quality experiences and opportunities for our cadets while
keeping our flnances stable and forward-looking.
Annual Accounts 2024-2025
Copies of the accounts h￿e been clrculated this evenln8 and cover the period from I" Aprll 2024 to 31" March 2025.
Intome
Thi5 year we saw an increase in totsl revenue of ar¢)und £12.4￿). Thi5 rise came from a mix of higher subs and the
sale of some of our older dinghies.
Notable one-off income sources include:
£1.600-The Ulysses Trust (Grant)
£7,(MJO- Sale of assets
£1,337- Scottlsh Power Isolar income)
£I,100- Hall & Woodhouse (Grant)
A spetial thank you goes to CO Reece Oliver and XO Alex Walsh, whose effort In researching and applyin8 for grants
has once again paid off. Their hard work has helped tss secure much-needed funds for new equipment and keep unlt
amp costs affordable, a real benefit for all our cadets.
Rtvenue Pa meftts
endhuve
Our total expenditure lor 2024-2025 rose by just over £33, 150 compared with the previous year. While that may
sound Ilke a sharp Increase, most of it relates to our investrnent in ihe new purpose-built unit, an exclting step
forward for our future. Of that total, £26,500 was directly tled to the new unit and its plannlng process. Wlth only
one remalnin8 blll to settle this year, we don't expect to see such a lar8e Increase a8aln next financial year.
Other one-off expenditure highlight5 include:
£2,740.98- Rent and Rates. {Thls covered two yè3ts' payments due to a chan8e in BCP Council's fee
schedule.)
£3.659.40- Buildlng & Estate, Includin8 £2,5CK) for ihe armoury Inspectlon. Teimbur5ed by MS-SC.
Balance Sheet
Throu8hout the year, we've kept a close eye on our finances to make sure we're mana8in8 funds responsibly. Our
8001 in incfftasinB subs last year was not to make a profit, but rather to avoid endin8 the year with a deficit, aimin8
slmply to balance our books. With that in mind. and excludin8 the new build costs, we ended the year with a small
deficit of aroLtnd £1,500. However, we applied for Gift Aid on the donations made through subs. and had that been
processed within the financial year, we would have ￿(orded a surplus instead !
The posltive news is that our reserves remaln healthy. Should we everlose all sources of income (including subs), we
would still be able to cover @very contractual expense for J full ye3r. ensuring the unit could toniinue operatt'ng
wlthout disruption.
Fundralsln
and Commun
Fundraising remains at the heart of keeping our unit thriving. We rely on the enthusiasm of parents, volunteers. and
the wider community to help us meet our goals. If you know ol any grhnt opportunitie5, or if your employer offers
match funding for charitable donation5 or volunteer hours. please do let U5 know. every little bit truly help5.
We're also looking to grow a small fundralslng team. If you have a back8rourKI in f￿r￿rdi$ln¥, or simply a general
interest and can Spare a few hours a month, please speak to any of the Trustees. Reece, or Alex. And if you know
someone outside the unit who mi8ht be willing to lend a hand, even if they don't have chlldren here, wed love thelr
support too. We're happyto welcome help from anyone who wants to make a difference.
Your ¢ontinued generosity and involvement are what keep the T5 Drax spirit alive. Together, we're not just balancing
books, we're buildinB Opportunities. supporting youn8 people, and ensurin8 our unil continue5 to grow stronger each
vear.
