Strabane & District Playclub
Report of the trustees
f?r the year ended 31 March 2024
Financial review
During the year to 31 March 2024 we had a deficit of £14,235 (2023: £19.075 deficit). We ended the
year with cash reserves of £34,774.
It has been our policy to bring the Charity to a position where it &qn continue financially without
external grants. The aim is that parents, fees plus small local donations plus the donated labour of
trustees and other Iocal volunteers will cover the charity running costs. Thankfully this h&s now been
achieved as the external fimding has ceased at present.
We have prepared the accounts using the Receipts & Payments basis.
Going Concern
We consider it reasonable that the Charity can operate on a going concern basis and has sufficient
funds and an income stream to allow it to continue for the foreseeable future.
