## **REPORT OF THE MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31** 

## **MARCH 2025** 

The Management Committee presents its report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2025. 

## **GOVERNING DOCUMENT** 

The club is an unincorporated charity, registered as such on 24 April 1970 

The charity was established under a Trust Deed dated 24 April 1970 as amended on 5 June 1997 which established the objectives and powers of the charity.  Under that deed, the trustees may appoint a person who is willing to act as a Trustee, either to fill a vacancy, or as an additional Trustee. 

## **ACTIVITIES** 

The charity exists to provide facilities to individuals and communities who are in need due to poverty or disadvantage, and in doing so to improve their quality of life. 

## **RESULTS** 

The net incoming resources for the year amounted to a negative amount of £38,467, leaving a fund balance of £96,627. This compares to an incoming net resource in 2024 of £63,922, and a fund balance of £148,381. 

## **CHARITABLE OBJECTIVES** 

To establish and develop an attractively designed playground i.e. a playground where moveable equipment and materials are provided with a view to contributing to the health, well-being and happiness of children and safely promoting their educational, physical and emotional development through a wide range of recreational facilities. 

## **FUTURE STRATEGY** 

The charity plans to continue the activities as outlined above in the forthcoming years subject to satisfactory funding arrangements to benefit the children and families of the Sands End community.  Funding and other beneficial support is being sought from the local business community and the wider national and local charitable trust funds. 

2 



## **RESERVES POLICY** 

The management committee have established a policy whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or investing in 

tangible fixed assets (‘the free reserves’) held by the charity should be between 3 and 6 months of resources expended. The management committee will continue to seek funding from a broad base of charitable trusts supporting our objectives in order to maintain and improve on current service delivery. 

## **INVESTMENT POLICY** 

The management committee has considered the most appropriate policy for investing funds and this will be in deposit accounts which will ensure that the funds are in a liquid state at all times. Reserves will be placed in a ‘High Interest’ account in order to make the best of the current financial climate. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

The principal current funding source is the London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham, and the John Lyons Charity. Additional income is generated through childcare fees, room hire and other chargeable activities. We are seeking and have had successful small local grants for specific activities and will seek larger grants for posts. 

## **RISK REVIEW** 

The management committee has conducted its own review of the major risks to which the charity is exposed and systems have been established to mitigate those risks.  Significant external risks to funding have led to the development of a strategic plan which will allow for diversification of funding and activities.  Internal risks are minimised by the 

implementation of our revised financial procedures.  These policies and procedures are periodically reviewed to ensure that they continue to meet the requirements of the charity. 

## **RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE** 

The Charities Act 2011 requires the management committee to prepare financial statements for each financial year which 

give a true and fair view of the affairs of the charity at the balance sheet date and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including income and expenditure for the financial year.  In preparing those financial statements the 

management committee should follow best practice and: 

- select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to assume that the charity will continue on that basis. 

The management committee is responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable 

accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements 

3 



comply with the charities act 2011. The management committee is 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. 

## **MEMBERS OF THE MANAGEMENT COMMITTEE** 

Members of the management committee, who are trustees for the purpose of charity law, who serve during the period and up to the date of this report are set out on page 3. 

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS** 

Jorgis Accountants have agreed to act as independent examiners to the charity. 

This report has been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice – Accounting and Reporting by 

Charities. 

Approved by the management committee on 20th November 2025. 

and signed on its behalf by 

Mr Craig Johnstone Chairperson 

Mr. Oliver Wessely Treasurer
