Social Club

The Social Club it had another excellent year with a profit of £70,609, an increase from the previous year of +£25,918. The amount of £70,609 was gift aided to the charity for 2023.

Charity

The Charity reports a combined deficit of -£29,059.

The deficit comprises two elements — the unrestricted funds of the charity returned a surplus of +£9,319 from the activities of the charity such as room hire etc and gift aid from the company.

The designated funds element returned a deficit of -£38,378.The major factor in the designated funds deficit were the costs incurred facilitating the Celebration Day on 30 April 2023 which commemorated the unveiling of the Shirebrook Memorial and the first march with the newly refurbished NUM Derbyshire banner. Both these events were generously supported by the National Lottery Heritage Fund for which the Trustees are very grateful. The Shirebrook Colliery Memorial Fund income/expenditure is detailed in note 9 of the annua! accounts. The remaining cumulative balance of the memorial fund at 31 December 2023 is £30,425.

Our investment portfolio at 31 December 2023 stood at £136,441, making net investment gains of +£7,517 during the year. No drawdowns were requested during the year allowing the investments to recover from drawdowns made during 2020.

Shirebrook Colliery Memorial Fund

The Shirebrook Colliery Memorial was unveiled on 30 April 2023 and the refurbished NUM Derbyshire banner was proudly marched from Shirebrook Miners Welfare Centre to the Shirebrook market square as part of the Celebration Day. The Shirebrook Miners Welfare Band led the banner and more than 1,000 people from the community back to Shirebrook Miners Welfare Centre for refreshments and entertainment at the Welfare following the unveiling of the memorial.

The Trustees would again like to place on record the receipt of the grant of £30,000 from the National Lottery Heritage Fund to help with the refurbishment of the NUM Derbyshire Area banner and help towards the festivities on the Celebration Day.

Grants and Donations

Denise Oscroft and Lynn Shortt continued to support the charity with a charity fundraiser in October of each year. They raised £700 in a grand raffle for the charity which was agreed to be remitted to the Friends of Shirebrook Model Village towards a play area.

Donations were made during the year to the British Heart Foundation £400 (raised by Bet Johnson), Shirebrook Cricket Club £525 (raised by Denise Oscroft and Lynne Shortt), Shirebrook Church Toilet Fund £200, Shirebrook Miners Welfare Football Team grant £600, Brain Tumour Research £250, Friends of Shirebrook Model Village Primary School play area £300, Safeguarding Campaign booklets for Shirebrook Academy and Shirebrook Model Village Schoo! £748, Shirebrook Rangers Football Team match balls £150, Destiny Cheer Group Florida competition costs £250 and visit to Peoples Museum Memorial towards costs £150.

Investments

Children’s Fund

The monies raised for the Children’s fund is mainly from the proceeds of the Thursday night bingo held at the Welfare which also pays for the children’s Halloween, Easter and Christmas parties.

No further events took place in the year as the Children’s Fund are building their reserves to fund another large children’s event in the future.

2

Reserves Policy

As at 318t December 2023 the free reserves of the charity amounted to £177,123 (2022 £211,894). The Trustees’ are of the opinion that the current reserves will be sufficient to enable them to meet their commitment to the beneficiary population in Shirebrook for many years to come although the Charity needs to strengthen its unrestricted reserves position to enable this. The Trustees’ are now working towards maintaining two years running costs of the Charity as a reserve.

Risk Management

The Trustees’ have examined the major strategic, business and operational risks which the Charity faces and confirms that systems have been established to enable regular reports to be produced so that the necessary steps can be taken to lessen these risks.

Trustees’ Responsibilities in relation to the Financial Statements

The law applicable to Charities in England and Wales require Trustees’ to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the Charity's financial activities during this year and of its financial position at the end of the year.
