Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2025
We continue to work with pupils from schools in the local community, who come to us to learn about what we do as part of their school's YPI programme. We also visited Hyndland Secondary and Ross Hall Academy as they hosted charity fairs to allow the pupils engage with a variety of different local charities.
INCOME
The Magpies Eye has continued to be busy and consolidate on its successes of recent years. Online sales continue to be a well-used function of the shop and have allowed customers an easy way to pay for items they see online quickly and have also continued to give the shop an extra stream of income when traditional footfall may be quieter.
The Magpie's Nest's had a better year with new staff settling in place and a positive team growing together and developing the shop both in terms of how we operate our donations sorting room through the back and how the shop floor is set up.
Both units continue to provide a steady income for the organisation and retail managers have been tasked with ensuring that they maximise opportunities to increase income to contribute to the monthly running costs of the organisation.
We continue our relationship with local charity 12 Guitars, selling guitars on their behalf on a 20% commission basis, utilising the window of our stockroom at 43 Burleigh Street, which in turn gives them an on-street presence. We added guitar amps at 40% commission to their offering this year and have also run one-off guitar part sale days with an assortment of guitars, parts and pedals being available for the day in store in our Magpie's Eye shop.
The cost of running continues to be a concern, and we are constantly looking at ways in which we can save on running costs and try and maximise our income streams.
SOCIAL MEDIA INITIATIVES
We continued to utilise our Social Media channels and develop our in-house staff teams who continue to produce short films and content for the charity's Facebook pages, Instagram, TikTok and X (Twitter). We also continue several successful social media initiatives and campaigns from previous years, which are now regular annual events for us.
*ON-LINE AUCTIONS - [Magpie's Eye] we continue to hold regular auctions of high-end items have proven to be a popular initiative, creating a n ew income stream and raising larger amounts of money for higher value items.
*CHRISTMAS GIVING TREE - a regular festive feature asking our supporters and retail customers to donate the cash value of specific pack items, ranging from £1 to £25. A popular initiative which the customers are keen to take part in each year.
*PAY IT FORWARD - another staff led initiative which continues to be popular with customers who make donations covering a wide range of community spirited donations & gestures.
HOUSING ASSOCIATIONS
We continue to work with the majority of Housing Associations across the city as well as other relevant organisations including:

STAFFING AND VOLUNTEERING
We have worked to increase our volunteer numbers by developing our relationship with Volunteer Glasgow. It has seen new volunteers join the team and we have retained more volunteers that have come in this year, which has helped increase our team numbers.

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2025
We had welcomed several new staff in last year and they have settled well into the organisation, proving to be a positive addition to our staff teams.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial position
The charity had free reserves of £29,050 at the year end.
Reserves policy
It is the policy of the charity to maintain unrestricted funds, which are the free reserves of the charity, at a level to provide sufficient funds to cover management, administration and support costs. The Board have set this as the running costs for three months.
FUTURE PLANS AND STRATEGY DEVELOPMENT
We finalised our Strategy document for the five-year period from 2024-2028 that was worked on by the whole team at Starter Packs Glasgow, with everybody being engaged to give their input.
Financially it has been a difficult year, and we had to utilise much help from the charity's supporters to ensure that we survived what was a very difficult financial time. We are looking at ways in which we can keep our costs as low as possible and increase our income streams whilst continuing to provide the important service which we pride ourselves on delivering well. Whilst we look forward to our 25th Anniversary Year, we are aware that our financial situation is delicate and a better balance of funding, fundraising, income streams alongside minimising running costs will be essential for us to keep running well.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
During the year under review, the charity was controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constituted a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation.
Recruitment and appointment of new trustees
As set out in the Constitution, Trustees are appointed at the Annual General Meeting. Any subsequent appointments are co-opted by the committee.
Risk management
The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Starter Packs Glasgow, SCIO
I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2025 set out on pages eight to seventeen.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended). The charity's trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10(1)(a) to (c) of the Accounts Regulations does not apply. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts as required under Section 44(1)(c) of the Act and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of the independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention :
-
(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the requirements
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 44(1)(a) of the 2005 Act and Regulation 4 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with Regulation 8 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations
have not been met; or
- (2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2025
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
Incoming resources
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. Income from service level agreements is deferred when the income is specifically for future accounting periods.
Resources expended
Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
| Improvements to property | - over the period of the lease |
|---|---|
| Fixtures & fittings and equipment | - 25% on cost |
| Computer equipment | - 33% on cost |
Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.
Taxation
The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charity's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.
Debtors
Debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due.
Creditors and provisions
Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably.
