## **CHAIRMAN'S REPORT**
## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025**_
We started this year on a more stable footing than previous years, working continuously with our partners “Your True Path to Wellness” (YTPTW) and New Scots along with all our classes and groups.
Every Board Member has a part in our groups giving a voice to each section of this YMCA. We can only move forward if we listen to what this Community needs, expanding where it is needed. Our Trustee Report will expand on this later.
Our Board continually look at costing of utilities, supplies, insurance groups and wages so we can ensure we are offering a good and stable costing for all lets.
This year could not run smoothly without the ongoing support of our Board, our Office Staff, Isobel and Maureen and Gardening expert Maureen Mills.
All their hard work is greatly appreciated.
Mr D Mills’ knowledge of funding and application to funders is acknowledged as invaluable.
As we move into 2026, I look forward, to seeing what we can achieve, hopefully without any further current conflicts in the world. Let’s keep up the good work.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025**_
The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2025.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's Articles of Association, the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005, the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended) and "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)" (effective 1 January 2019).
## **Objectives and activities**
## Charitable purposes
Broughty Ferry YMCA aims to:
1. Provide a warm welcome to members for themselves, in a meeting place which is theirs to share, where friendships can be made and counsel sought.
2. To enable people, particularly the young, to develop as full participants in the local community.
3. Develop activities and programmes which stimulate and challenge its members in an environment that enables them to take responsibility and find a sense of achievement.
The principles upon which the YMCA was founded remain the cornerstone of the movement today although the work may have developed in a variety of ways.
Broughty Ferry YMCA since its foundation in 1866, remains committed to the Christian value base of body, mind and spirit as reflected in its logo of the red triangle.
It remains open to people of all faiths and none.
It believes in equal opportunities for all and the support of programmes and services which encourages the development of the whole person.
The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.

## **BROUGHTY FERRY YMCA**
## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025**_
## **Achievements and performance**
The trustees are happy to report that the upturn referred to in last year’s report continues despite a world situation which although having a less severe impact on the organisation compared to previous years still brings challenges in particular for the charity sector. Due to the diligent work carried out in controlling expenditure levels and increasing income we have improved our resilience against these external pressures, whilst still achieving our charitable purposes at a cost that is affordable by all. As the Chair has noted in her report every board member is represented on at least one sub-committee and contributes meaningfully to our meetings and has continued to make us more pro-active rather than re-active. This in turn has brought the “soul” back into the building in a more dramatic way than could have been foreseen a few years ago.
The Future Development Committee whilst looking at renewal of contracts as and when they fall due, also was tasked with improving our income and expenditure spreadsheets in order that the Board could examine these better at monthly meetings on both a monthly and year to date level. This will be implemented in 2026 and introduce an improved level of governance and oversight to our discussions and budgeting.
The Funding and Grant Seeking Committee continues to be successful in obtaining grants although in this year substantial funding has been raised for our Partnership work and less on capital works. The coming year will see them look at improving the gymnasium extension and the possible development of green energy projects. With the help of YMCA Scotland Artificial Intelligence (AI) was utilised in suggesting improvements to funding applications with positive results and we anticipate undertaking training in this technology in 2026.
The Fabric Committee are now actively meeting more regularly than before and completing their duties timeously in line with our conservation plan. In the coming year we anticipate a greater liaison with the funding committee as we look to expand and manage the proposed work on the gymnasium extension.
The Fundraising and Communications Committee has continued to improve the dissemination of information to the public through both our website and Facebook. The Gala Day continues to be successful both in terms of bringing in additional funds but also in raising our profile in the community and assisting us as being seen as one of the community centres of Broughty Ferry.
During the year we have continued to work in partnership with several groups
1. Y not Me in partnership with YMCA Tayside. Although this club was appreciated by those attending, the numbers were insufficient to justify the input necessary from YMCA Tayside to fulfil safeguarding and regulatory requirements particularly given the difficulty in sourcing external grant funding. The club continued until June 2025, however we were able following discussion with St Aidan’s Church in Broughty Ferry who ran a club for a similar age group to take on any attendees who wished.
2. Your True Path To Wellness (YTPTW). We entered the second year of our 3 year funded partnership project aimed at women suffering from loneliness, social isolation and mild to moderate mental health issues. What started off as merely a social club has expanded beyond the wildest dreams of both YTPTW and Broughty Ferry YMCA. The feedback from a questionnaire issued by YTPTW to the members who now have 12 different groups each month stated that “the YMCA feels like home and is a safe, warm and welcoming place to be”.
3. “New Scots @t Broughty Ferry YMCA. This partnership continues to expand and as well as being a social group where all members of the family attend individual projects targeting particular needs of different age groups have developed and will form the basis of future grant funded work. A highlight of the year was an event with board members and their families of Broughty Ferry YMCA where entertainment and food from the New Scots highlighting their Ukrainian heritage was showcased. All attendees from the YMCA were moved when socialising with the New Scots when hearing their stories and experiences.
4. Mens’ Shed continues to thrive as a separate charity on our premises and we are grateful for their assistance in any minor works and repairs that they carry out with great skill.
5. Empowerment Academy. While this is not a formal partnership we look as we go into 2026 to formalise this in such a way that may also us to more easily obtain external funding. The work done by this group is filling a gap that is unmet by government bodies and local authorities and is warmly appreciated by both attendees and parents and guardians.

## **BROUGHTY FERRY YMCA**
## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025**_
In summary when we hold regular meetings with our partners we are always told that everyone sees this as their home. We hope to continue and expand upon this in 2026 and obtain further funding from those funders for whom 2026 is the final year of funding our projects.
In conclusion our YMCA is now a place where as mentioned in our charitable aims “where friendships can be made and counsel sought” we as always will continue to seek greater diversity in terms of age, gender, faith and experience whilst valuing the efforts and commitment of all current staff, directors volunteers and partners, without whose joint efforts, the positive nature of this Trustees’ Report would not have been possible.

## **Financial review**
The surplus of £21,689 (2024 - Deficit £495) has been taken to reserves. The Trustees believe that the resources available are sufficient for them to continue the objectives of the charity.
Unrestricted reserves were £27,948 at 31[st] December 2025.

In addition, and totally separate to the board, with a separate constitution are a board of trustees whose sole remit is the building (business premises) which is held in trust. There are 5 Trustees sitting on this board.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF BROUGHTY FERRY YMCA**
I report on the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2025, which are set out on pages 8 to 20.
## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner**

## **BROUGHTY FERRY YMCA**
## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025**_
## **1 Accounting policies**
## **Charity information**
Broughty Ferry YMCA is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in Scotland. The registered office is Whitehall House, 33 Yeaman Shore, Dundee, DD1 4BJ.
## **1.1 Basis of preparation**
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006, FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Charities SORP "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)". The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
## **1.2 Going concern**
At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
## **1.3 Charitable funds**
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.
Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the charity.
## **1.4 Income**
Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

## **BROUGHTY FERRY YMCA**
## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025**_
## **1 Accounting policies**
**(Continued)**
## **1.5 Expenditure**
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
## **1.6 Cash and cash equivalents**
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.
## **1.7 Financial instruments**
The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
## _**Basic financial assets**_
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
## _**Basic financial liabilities**_
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
## _**Derecognition of financial liabilities**_
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

## **(Continued)**
## **1.8 Taxation**
## **Taxation**
The company is accepted as a charity by the Board of the Inland Revenue and consequently relief is given under S505 ICTA 1988 to exempt it from the payment of Corporation Tax.
## **1.9 Employee benefits**
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.
Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
## **2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements**
In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
