Trustees' Annual Report (continued)

Year ended 31 May 2025

Structure, governance and management

The Charity was established in 1992 and Inland Revenue approval granted on 6 July 1992. The Charity is registered in Scotland and is governed by its constitution. The registered charity number is SC0020329.

The Office Bearers elected at the last Annual General Meeting were:

Chairman Secretary Treasurer

==> picture [72 x 43] intentionally omitted <==

Six Trustees stepped down as trustees on 20th August 2025, and five new trustees were appointed on the same day.

Appointment and Induction of Trustees

The trustees have power to appoint additional trustees in terms of the constitution. New Trustees undergo an induction process which helps them to understand the charity's purposes, financial position and current issues facing the Charity.

Administration

The management of the Charity is the responsibility of the Trustees who are listed above. The Trustees administer the Charity's affairs at meetings arranged as necessary, but at least one meeting is held each year, at which finances are reviewed and decisions on future plans made.

Statement of Risk

The Trustees review periodically the major risks to which the Trust is exposed and the systems which are in place to mitigate those risks.

The Trust has no long term commitments and accordingly any risks are regarded as being low, minimal and easily contained.

Objectives and activities

The objects of the Association are to promote the wellbeing of the inhabitants of Easterhouse and, in particular, the neighbourhoods of Blairtumnock, Rogerfield, Kildermorie, Provanhall and Easthall without distinction of sex, politics, or religion by the provision of facilities for the social education, care and development of individuals and families.

The main activities which the charity provides are as follows:

Trustees' Annual Report (continued)

Year ended 31 May 2025

Achievements and performance

The Association exists to improve quality of life, reduce isolation and promote wellbeing across generations within the local community. Trustees have ensured that all activities undertaken during the year furthered these aims and delivered demonstrable public benefit.

Brighter East End (BEE)

BEE continued to deliver a broad programme of children's and youth work, engaging children and young people from early primary age through to young adulthood. Weekly term-time groups (Buzz, Hive and YoBEE) operated at or near capacity, with young people actively shaping activities and decisions.

Holiday provision remained a key area of impact. Across the April, Summer and October school holidays, BEE delivered eight weeks of funded provision, supporting over 140 registered children and young people and providing more than 2,600 meals and snacks. Additional programmes included peer education workshops, youth leadership development, accredited awards, community events and an intergenerational walking group.

During the year, BEE made significant progress toward becoming an independent Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation (SCIO). Trustees oversaw this transition carefully to ensure continuity, strong governance and stability for staff, volunteers and service users.

The Daffodil Club

The Daffodil Club continued to provide vital day-to-day support for older people, many of whom experience significant social isolation, mobility challenges and health needs. In 2025, the service supported 105 older people, with a high proportion attending multiple days per week.

Activities included daily meals, exercise classes, dementia-friendly art therapy, health and wellbeing services, outings, holidays and extensive practical and advocacy support. Volunteers played a central role, contributing over 6,300 hours during the year. Client evaluations consistently demonstrated the importance of the service in supporting physical health, mental wellbeing and independent living.

Governance and Management

Throughout the year, Trustees met regularly to oversee strategy, governance, safeguarding, financial management and risk. Trustees worked closely with the staff to respond to funding pressures, rising costs and increasing demand, while maintaining high-quality services.

The Trustees wish to thank all staff, volunteers, funders and community partners for their dedication and support throughout the year.

Plans for the Future

The Association's work was funded through a combination of grants, local authority funding, fees and fundraising. Trustees are satisfied that funds were applied appropriately and in line with charitable objectives.

Looking ahead, Trustees will focus on supporting BEE's transition to independence, securing the long-term sustainability of The Daffodil Club, and continuing to meet the evolving needs of the Easterhouse community.

Trustees' Annual Report (continued)

Year ended 31 May 2025

Financial review

The association seeks to ensure that it retains sufficient reserves to enable it to continue to provide its services to the local community and with our improved financial position over the last 3 years we aim to be able to ensure the continuation of services for the following 6 months.

Reserves Policy

The Charity's policy is to attempt to maintain sufficient reserves to cover at least six months anticipated expenditure.

Investment Policy

The Trustees have retained short term surplus cash and reserves arising in the year on deposit as these are likely to be required in the short to medium term.

Taxation

St George's and St Peter's Community Association is a Charity and is recognised as such by HM Revenue and Customs for taxation purposes. As a result there is no liability to taxation on any of its income.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of St George's and St Peter's Community Association

Year ended 31 May 2025

I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of St George's and St Peter's Community Association ('the charity') for the year ended 31 May 2025.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the trustees of the charity you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 (the ‘2005 Act’) and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended). You are satisfied that your charity is not required by charity law to be audited and have chosen instead to have an independent examination.

I report in respect of my examination of the charity's financial statements as carried out under section 44(1)(c) of the 2005 Act. In carrying out my examination I have followed the requirements of Regulation 11 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended).

Independent examiner's statement

Since the charity has prepared its accounts on an accruals basis your examiner must be a member of a body listed in Regulation 11(2) of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended). I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a registered member of ICAS which is one of the listed bodies.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

  1. accounting records were not kept as required by section 44(1)(a) of the 2005 Act and Regulation 4 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended); or

  2. the financial statements do not accord with those records; or

  3. the financial statements do not comply with the accounting requirements of Regulation 8 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended).

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Notes to the Financial Statements

Year ended 31 May 2025

1. General information

The charity is a public benefit entity and a registered charity in Scotland and is unincorporated. The address of the principal office is Boyndie Street, Easterhouse, Glasgow, G34 9JE.

2. Statement of compliance

These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland', the 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) (Charities SORP (FRS 102)) and the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charity Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended).

3. Accounting policies

Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through income or expenditure.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the entity.

Going concern

There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue.

Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees to further any of the charity's purposes.

Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for particular future project or commitment.

Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure declared by the donor or through the terms of an appeal, and fall into one of two sub-classes: restricted income funds or endowment funds.

3. Accounting policies (continued)

Incoming resources

All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when entitlement has passed to the charity; it is probable that the economic benefits associated with the transaction will flow to the charity and the amount can be reliably measured. The following specific policies are applied to particular categories of income:

Resources expended

Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is classified under headings of the statement of financial activities to which it relates:

All costs are allocated to expenditure categories reflecting the use of the resource. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs are apportioned between the activities they contribute to on a reasonable, justifiable and consistent basis.

Depreciation

Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost or valuation of an asset, less its residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows:

Fixtures and fittings - Fully depreciated Motor Vehicles - 15% reducing balance

Defined contribution plans

Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as an expense in the period in which the related service is provided. Prepaid contributions are recognised as an asset to the extent that the prepayment will lead to a reduction in future payments or a cash refund.

3. Accounting policies (continued)

Defined contribution plans (continued)

When contributions are not expected to be settled wholly within 12 months of the end of the reporting date in which the employees render the related service, the liability is measured on a discounted present value basis. The unwinding of the discount is recognised as an expense in the period in which it arises.
