## **Trustee’s Report (including Directors’ Report) For the year ended February 28[th] 2025** 

The trustees who are also directors of the company for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their annual report and accounts for the year ended February 28[th] 2025. 

The information with respect to trustees, directors, officers and advisers set out on the information page, forms part of this report.  The financial statements comply with current statutory requirements, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, applicable Accounting Standards in the United Kingdom and the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) “Accounting and Reporting by Charities”, (FRS 102). 

## **Reference and Administration Details** 

Gortnaghey Community Association is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 18th August 2005. It is registered with the Company's Registrar under registration number NI056271. It is also registered as a charity with the Charity Commission NI, NIC102242. The trustees and secretary of the charity are listed on the information page. The principal and registered office of the charity are also listed on the information page together with the details of the professional advisors and bankers. 

## **Risk Management** 

The directors in conjunction with the management team, have reviewed the risks to which the  charity is exposed and have established systems and procedures to mitigate those risks. 

## **Objectives and Activities** 

In shaping our objectives for the year and planning our activities, the trustees have considered the  Charity Commission guidance on public benefit. 

The principal activity of the company is to promote the benefit of the inhabitants of the area of Gortnaghey and it's environs without distinction of sex, race or political, religious or other opinions by associating with the statutory authorities, voluntary organizations and inhabitants in a common effort to relieve poverty, advance education, preserve and protect health and provide facilities in the interest of social welfare for recreation and other leisure time occupations with the object of improving conditions of life for the said inhabitants. 

The company operates a community centre for use by all groups in the community. It provides a range of educational and recreational classes. The company holds weekly social events for the elderly, a youth club for the young people of the area and Mother and Toddlers Events.   It provides computer and photocopying service   and acts as a signpost for other services. It provides access to an outdoor recreational/sporting facility for all members of the community, which consists of a play-park, walkway, 3G pitch and green space. It provides opportunities for people to get involved in volunteering and it has annual seasonal and outdoor events to bring the community together.  Local community groups are our main users, plus Sure Start and the Rural Women’s Network. 

## **Achievements and Performance** 

Our outdoor facilities continue to be a very popular destination for visitors, plus this boosts the hire demand on the Centre for children’s birthday parties.  We continue to work in partnership with neighbouring Burnfoot in sharing resources and a caretaker thanks to funding from The National Lottery’s 3 year grant.  Plans for the construction of a permissive path to connect the village and local GAC grounds are still in progress, although we failed to get the consent of all the landowners and lost out on a funding opportunity, we have now taken a different course of action and are working with local representatives to push this project through with DFI, which will be a longer process.  The Limavady Children Team of Western Trust have been using our vacant unit for contact services since July 2024.  Resurfacing work was carried out in 2 areas of the Park this year, which has seen the existing park bark areas recovered with a cleaner more sustainable play surface.  Weekly classes of Yoga and Chair Aerobics have continued.  Discussions continue with a local landowner regarding the purchase of additional land to the rear of the Centre on which we can do an extension for units to let.

## **Financial Review** 

The statement of financial activities for the year is set out on page 7 of the financial statements. A  summary of the financial results of the charity is set out below: 

|Overall Summary<br> <br>Incoming Resources<br> <br>Total Resources Expended<br><br>Surplus/(Deficit) for the Period<br>|**£**<br>57,865<br>(119,854)|**£**<br>57,865<br>(119,854)|
|---|---|---|
||<br>|<br>(61,989)|



## **Reserves Policy** 

The charity's policy on restricted funds is to separately record donations, grants and other sources of   funding where restrictions are imposed on their use by the donor. The trustees have established a policy (which will be reviewed on an annual basis) whereby the unrestricted funds not committed or invested in tangible fixed assets or designated for specific purposes ("the free reserves") held by the charity should equate to approximately six months of the resources expanded. In additions to this the trustees set a target of £10,000 to be held as a reserve to ensure that there are sufficient funds to keep the property in good repair and to cover estimated redundancy costs. This equates to £48,150 in general funds. At this level, the trustees consider that they would be able to continue the current activities of the charity in the event of a significant drop in income. It would also be necessary to consider how that income would be replaced. At the balance sheet date free reserves, which amount  to £15,230 (£247,726 less £232,496 re tangible fixed assets) did not exceed the minimum target level. The trustees hope to use these funds to assist with the land purchase and proposed extension to the Community Centre for units to let, which will help with sustainability. 

## **Plans for Future Periods** 

In the present economic climate, it is the company's intention to maintain and develop its current  activities. The company will continue to seek opportunities to expand in the areas which are compatible to the ethos and objectives of the company.  We are currently working with Causeway Coast and Glens on a project, which if successful will see the construction of permissive pathway, which will link the village with the GAC grounds.  The National Lottery funding for the Enriching Rural Communities, a joint project with neighboring Burnfoot was successful with their second application and commenced in September 2024. 

## **Structure, Governence and Management** 

Gortnaghey Community Association is a company limited by guarantee and registered as a charity with the Charity Commission N.I.. In terms of company law, charity law and day to day activities, the company is an independent entity. The trustees meet regularly to direct the operations of the charity. The charity has 2 part time employees. 

An Annual General Meeting is held every year, and a panel comprising of existing trustees nominates individuals for the Board. Trustees serve for a one year period and may be re-elected for further one year periods. The trustees who served during the year ended February 28[th] 2025 are listed on the information page.

## **Taxation**

## **Tangible fixed assets and depreciation** 

Depreciation  is provided  at the  following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life: 

Freehold property 2% Straight Line Plant & Machinery 10% Straight Line Fixtures & Fittings 20% Straight Line 

All fixed assets are recorded at cost. 

The carrying value of tangible fixed assets are reviewed annually for impairment if events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable.

Revenue grants are credited to the statement of financial activities in the year which they fall due.

The capital grants were provided toward the cost of building the property at 81 Gortnaghey Road and towards the cost of fixtures and fittings.  The balance is reducing as the assets are depreciated. 

If the company defaults on the conditions listed in the letter of offer, thee grants could become repayable until the expiry of the restricted period.  The restricted period means a period of 10 years commencing on the date on which the last payment of grant was made (80 years in respect of funding from Big Lottery Fund). 

As security for the obligations of the company to repay the financial assistance the funders have a legal charge over the freehold property situated at 79a to 81 Gortnaghey Road. 

The trustees have designated £50,000 of current reserves to assist with the development of the village activity hub and Permissive Path Works.
