Plans for the Future
The Trustees continue to encourage grant applications particularly from voluntary youth organisations in the West of Scotland.
2025 has seen an encouraging start, with the value of grants awarded by the end of July over £100,000.
The costs of activities continue to be hit by inflationary pressures, this being reflected in many grant applications.
As a consequence of this the trustees expect that the Grants to be awarded for 2025 will significantly exceed projected dividend income for the year. To date 81 grants amounting to just over £118,000 and benefiting over 2,600 young people have been approved.
Approved by the Trustees and signed on their behalf.

Allander Youth Activities Charitable Trust Independent Examiner's Report Year ended 31st December 2024
Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of the Allander Youth Activities Charitable Trust
I report on the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31st December 2024 which are set out on pages 1 to 7.
Respective responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner
The 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 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 Independent Examiner's statement
My examination is carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended). 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 accounts and seeks explanations from the 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 the course of my examination no matter has come to my attention
-
(1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements
-
(a) to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 44(1)(a) of the 2005 Act and Regulation 4 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations (as amended) and
-
(b) to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with Regulation 9 of the 2006
Accounts Regulations (as amended) 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.
