REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST MARCH 2025
ORGANISATIONAL STRUCTURE
The Board of Directors are responsible for the operational and financial management of the Trust.
New Directors are recommended by individual directors and their appointment confirmed at a Directors’ meeting.
Upon the appointment of any new Directors, a full and bespoke induction process is planned in order to ensure complete familiarity and understanding of the Trust's objectives and operation and the roles and responsibilities of the Directors.
PAY AND REMUNERATION OF KEY MANAGEMENT PERSONNEL
The company employs no staff. The Company Secretary acts as its key management and oversees day to day activities through his role as Chief Executive Officer of Coventry Sports Foundation.
ACTIVITIES AND ACHIEVEMENTS DURING THE YEAR
The Trust continued to secure levels of charitable funding in support of its objectives.
The Trust also continued its rental and equipment leasing charges to Coventry Sports Foundation.
PLANS FOR THE FUTURE
The Trust will continue to work with Coventry Sports Foundation throughout the year to monitor the impact of the current economic and cost of living challenges, which are pressurising consumer spend and choices.
FINANCIAL REVIEW, RISKS AND RESERVES POLICIES
_ Theassetsresultscontinuefor theto beyearusedandforfinancialthe company’spositionobjectiveof the Trustof providingare shownsportsin theandannexedleisure facilitiesfinancialforstatements.the disabledTheandTrust'sable bodied:
The majority of the Trust's income is in rents received from Coventry Sports Foundation in respect of the Xcel Leisure Centre and the Trustees consider this income to be relatively secure for the future. In addition to this, the Trust receives an annual donation from one benefactor and the Trustees are conscious of the inherent risks that this presents, should funding from this source be reduced or withdrawn.
The Trustees are mindful of their responsibilities for the repair, replacement and renewal of any major capital items within the premises of the Xcel Leisure Centre and consider that the current level of free reserves of £764,006, being unrestricted investments and net current assets, is some way short of what would be required for any substantial capital works. Therefore, the Trustees are committed to building sufficient reserves to service future capital replacements that will be necessary to maintain the standard of its premises.
STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES'/DIRECTORS' RESPONSIBILITIES
The Trustees (who are also Directors of Midlands Sports Centre for the Disabled Trust for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year, which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
-
*. select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; * observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP 2019 (FRS 102); * make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation. ,

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF
MIDLAND SPORTS CENTRE FOR THE DISABLED TRUST LIMITED
A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE
We have audited the financial statements of Midlands Sports Centre for the Disabled Trust (the ‘charitable company’) for the year ended 31 March 2025 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company’s affairs as at 31 March 2025, and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended;
-
e have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-
e have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the Trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other information
The Trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Trustees’ annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
.
Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
—
We have nothing to report in this regard.
Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006 In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
-
e the information given in the Trustees’ Report (incorporating the Directors’ Report) for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
-
e __ the Directors’ Report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the directors’ report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
. adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
-
° the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
. certain disclosures of Directors’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or
-
. we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or
-
. the Trustees were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies’ regime and take advantage of the small companies’ exemptions in preparing the Directors’ Report and from the requirement to prepare a strategic report.
Responsibilities of Trustees
As explained more fully in the Trustees’ responsibilities statement set out on page 3, the Trustees (who are also the Directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the Trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations,.or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The specific procedures for this engagement and the extent to which these are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
-
Enquiry of management, and those charged with governance around actual and potential litigation and claims;
-
Enquiry of entity staff in compliance functions to identify any instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations;
,
-
Reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance;
-
Reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
-
Performing audit work over the risk of management override of controls, including testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business and reviewing accounting estimates for bias

,
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements (cont)
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www. frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities This description forms part of our auditor's report.
This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company’s members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and the charitable company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

;
Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the Trustees for particular purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued):
d) Expenditure recognition
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Expenditure is recognised where there is a legal or constructive obligation to : make payments to third parties, it is probable that the settlement will be required, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. It is categorised under the following headings:
-
e Costs of raising funds;
-
e Expenditure on charitable activities; and
-
e Other expenditure represents those items not falling into the categories above.
Governance costs, shown within professional fees, comprise all costs involving the public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice. These costs include costs related to statutory audit and legal fees.
e) Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are capitalised and included at cost except for investment property which is included at valuation. Assets in the course of construction includes relevant development expenditure.
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. The annual rates principally used are: Sports equipment - 20% straight line Fixtures and fittings - 20% straight line Office equipment - 33.33% straight line Motor vehicle - 20% straight line
;
The property is being held for the provision of social benefit and hence is to be classified as Property, Plant & Equipment.
The Trustees consider that Depreciated Replacement Cost is the most appropriate methodology for the valuation of Xcel Leisure Centre. Given the nature of the assets, the Trustees believe that there is no reliable market value information available for use.
f) Investments
Investments are recognised initially at fair value which is normally the transaction price excluding transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at fair value with changes recognised in ‘net gains / (losses) on investments’ in the SoFA if the shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise be measured reliably. Other investments are measured at cost less impairment.
g) Debtors and creditors receivable / payable within one year
Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in expenditure.
h) Operating leases
Rentals payable and receivable under operating leases are charged to the SoFA ona straight-line basis over the period of the lease. .
i) Tax
The charity is an exempt charity within the meaning of schedule 3 of the Charities Act 2011 and is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes.
