# **HOLM COMUNITY ASSOCIATION SCIO ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2024** 



**HOLM COMMUNITY ASSOCIATIO:S SCIO** 

**TRUSTEES' REPORT** 

## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2024** 

**The Charity Trustees present their report and accounts for the year ended 31 October 2024.** 

**The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the charity's constitution, applicable law and the Statement of Recommended Practice, "Accounting and Reporting by Charities", issued in March 2005.** 

## **Objects of the Charity** 

**The charity was established be a deed of trust on 7 May 1969. The Association received approval to change its legal form and become a Scottish Charitable Incorporation Organisation (SCIO) on 27 September 2012 and officially transferred its assets to become Holm Community Association SCIO with effect from 31 October 2012.** 

## **The Organisations purposes are:** 

- **To promote the well-being of the Community and residents in the Parish of Holm and its environs without distinction of sex, sexuality, political, religious, or other opinions, by association with the local statutory authorities, voluntary organisations and residents in a common effort to promote educational, cultural, social and other leisure and recreational activities among its members, and to foster a community spirit for the achievement of these so that their conditions oflife may be improved.** 

- **To assist in or to establish, maintain, manage and develop a Community Centre and associated sports and play facilities for activities promoted by the Association and its constituent members and any other premises associated therewith in every respect as may seem appropriate.** 

**The Association is governed by a board of Charity Trustees and Members, which meet on a regular basis throughout the period.** 

## **Charity Trustees' responsibilities** 

**Law applicable to charities in Scotland requires the trustees to prepare accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the charity's activities during the period and of its financial position at the end of the period (unless the charity is entitled to prepare accounts on the alternative receipts and payments basis).** 

**In preparing accounts giving a true and fair view, the trustees should follow best practice and:** 

- **select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;** 

- **make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;** 

- **state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the accounts;** 

- **prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.** 

**The trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy the financial position of the charity and which enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the applicable law. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.** 

## **Review of activities** 

**The Association has continued to organise the normal fundraising events in the period.**
