7(b) DISPOSAL OF THE MUGA ASSET
The Multi-use Games Area (MUGA) was originally an externally funded development to
benefit the local village community and surrounding are& which the Trust then absorbed into
its operations for prdctical considerdtions through a 'transfer' from Chipping Parish Council.
The main users of the &sset over the last few years have been Chipping Village Football
Club. An agreement was reached via a Memorandum of Understanding (Mou) between the
Trust. Chipping Village Football Club and the Parish Council to transfer ownership of the
entire asset and the continued respx)nsibility. risks and rewards of operation from l October
2023 to the Parish Council and Football Club respectively for a period of l O years.
As part of Mou, it was agreed that the asset would transfer to the Parish Council at Net Book
Value as at 30 September 2023, with no actual consideration being paid to the Trust.
Consequently, this has resulted in a technical loss on transfer of £40,838, which has been
recognised directly within Balance Sheet funds and a reduction in Net Assets.
