Upper Church Road, Shedfield, Hampshire SO32 2JB 



## **SHEDFIELD RECREATION GROUND** 

## ANNUAL REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 March 2025 

## **GOVERNANCE** 

Shedfield Recreation Ground Charity was registered in a scheme dates 31[st] October 1891 as amended by an order of 29[th] November 1895 

## **PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY** 

The charity provides a recreation ground for the benefit of the inhabitants of Shedfield without political religious or other distinction with the object of improving the conditions of life of said inhabitants. 

On this recreation ground have been installed a football ground, a cricket pitch, a childrens play area, a petanque court and a BMX track 

The charity also owns a pavilion building, which was significantly improved and extended in 2022/23 

## **RESULTS AND REVIEW** 

No major works have been undertaken in the year. 

## **TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

Charity law requires the trustees to prepare the financial statements taking a true and fair view of financial activities during each year and of the financial position at the end of each year.  Also, the trustees are required to follow best practice, notably The Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2010 and the Statement of Recommended Practice - Accounting Reporting by Charities.  Particular care is needed when: 

selecting suitable accounting policies and then applying them consistently; 

making judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

stating whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed; and 

preparing figures on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to assume that the Charity will continue to operate. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose, with reasonable accuracy, the financial position of the charity, and which enable them to both ascertain the financial position of the charity and ensure that the financial statements comply with the requirements of the Trust Deed and the Charity Commission.  They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

The trustees have given consideration to the major risks to which the Charity is exposed and are satisfied that there are adequate measures and controls in place to appropriately mitigate those risks. 

Signed on behalf of the trustees by 

Stuart Dyne, Parish Council Chair

## INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES 

I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2025 set out below. 

## **RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF TRUSTEES AND EXAMINER** 

The Charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Charity’s trustees consider that that an examination is required under section 145(1) of the Charities Act 2011, and that section 144(1) (audit) of the Charities Act 2011 does not apply to the charity. 

It is my responsibility to: 

examine the accounting records under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 

follow the procedures laid down by145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and 

- state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **BASIS OF INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the Charity Commission’s directions.  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 as trustees concerning any such matters.  The procedures undertaken 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 statement below. 

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S STATEMENT** 

No matter has come to my attention in the course of my examination: 

which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the Charity’s trustees have not met the requirements to ensure that - 

proper accounting records are kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act 2011; and 

accounts are prepared which agree with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Act; or 

to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
