Report of the Trustees
The Trustees present their Report for the year ended 31 March 2026.
Governing document
Clydesdale Christian Youth Trust ("the Trust") is governed by a Trust Deed dated 10 June
2008 and was recognised as a Charity on 27 August 2008 by the Office of the Scottish Charity
Regulator.
Appointment of Trustees
There is no fixed temi for Trusteeship. Prior to their appointment, new Trustees would have
expressed an interest in the Trust and would be familiar with the Trust's values, its aims and
objectives as well as its day to day operations. As part of their induction programme, new
Trustees are required to understand their statutory responsibilities.
Organisational structure
The Trustees are responsible for managing the affairs of the Trust. They delegate day to day
management to the Management Committee, the members of which are shown on page 1.
In the year under review two Trustees have served as members of the Management
Committee.
Objectlves
The aim of the Trust is to advance the Christian religion among the young people in the
Clydesdale area of South Lanarkshire and in furtherance Ihereof..
{a)to give the school age children and young people of the Clydesdale area the
opportunity to explore the meaning, value and purpose of life from a Christian
perspective.
(b) to employ such person or persons and host such groups and events as are necessary,
in conjunction with local churches and other Christian organisations where appropriate,
to do all things as will properly attain the above stated aim.
Achievements and performance
Since starting on the 281h of October, Daniel has recently come to the end of his probationary
period and completed his training. In this time, he has gradually begun working alongside
local Churches and in some schools across Clydesdale.
1. Supporting the Local Church: Daniel has been involved and supported Hope Church in
their after-school clubs and in-service days, and he also joined their Christmas Youth
event. Kirkmuirhill Parish Church run a Youth Outreach called Teen Space, which Daniel
has been along to support, as well as Calvary Carluke Baptist Church's Anchors Youth
Group. Daniel has also been working alongside Biggar District Church to run an SU Group;
Carstairs Parish Church to run assemblies in Carstairs Junction Primary. and Bridge

Church Lanark, who have supported the Trust in hosting 3 Connect Groups, which involve
an evening of Bible Study & Games.
2. Residentials.. The Lanarkshire Primary & Secondary weekends were both great times
of blessing. seeing the young people immerse themselves in exploring God's word.
3. Schools Work: The SU groups across the region are going really well. There are
currently 3. with more in the process of starting. Daniel is regularly involved with these
groups, supporting the great team of volunteers. Over Easter, Daniel was involved in
7 Assemblies across 4 Schools, and in partnership with Street Level, Carluke, hosted
an Easter open house event.
Changes to Personnel
Daniel Munday was welcomed to his first Management Committee meeting in January 2026.
Administration
The Management Committee met five times during the year. The Trustees met on 23rd May
2025 to review and approve the 2CYTrust Annual Report for the previous year. Prayer is an
essential part of these meetings.
The Trust has a new website which clearly describes and illustrates our work.
Our association with SU Scotland not only helps us with the financial administration referred
to below, we also rely on line management and training for our worker with expert oversight
by Karen Stangoe. The Associate Worker Scheme conference annually in March provides
great opportunities for engaging with and leaming from other Associate Trusts in Scotland.
Financial Review
The beginning of the past financial year was relatively quiet due to there being no Youth
worker in place. However we are glad to report that since Daniel Munday's appointment in
October our accounts have been busier with payroll, pensions and invoices to pay.
We were fortunate to be able to apply for a Scripture Union grant of £5,000 in October to help
towards running costs and this was a great boost to our funds just before Daniel joined us.
We also received a gift aid payment from HMRC totalling £1.270 which again helped to boost
our funds.
We were very blessed overthe last yearto receive lump sum payments from some supporters
in the area and again these were an answer to prayer. One of the donations helped us to set
up our new website.
We are grateful to SU for payroll administration and also to their HR department who helped
with the recruitment process. With this back-up we are able to make our salary payments
each month and also pay HMRC when appropriate.

Income totalled to £11,716, a reduction of £2,710 on £14,426 in the previous year. The
principal source of income were donations from individuals totalling to £4,020 and a grant of
£5,000 from SU. Expenditure totalled to £10,780, down from £11,805 in the previous year.
Employment costs remained our largest outgoing, amounting to £7,439 for the five months
from November 2025 to March 2026. A surplus of £936 was recorded for the yearto 31 March
2026 (2025 surplus of £2,621).
Reserves Policy
Our reserves policy continues to be to hold SLrfficient funds available to provide months,
salary and £2,000.00. The amount of the reserves to cover notice, redundancy and other
costs will be reviewed annually.
At the year-end, the Trust held unrestricted cash funds of £31.587, therefore meeting the
reserves policy.
Planning ahead - Renewed Vlsion
Last yearfs report spoke about the recruitment campaign to find a new part time worker. We
interviewed Daniel in September last year after a second round of advertising in July and
August. He began working for us part time at the end of October.
We were greatly encouraged that Daniel, by the beginning of March 2026, had completed a
very positive mid-tenn review of the 6 months training offered by SU Scotland, as well as
developing good local relationships with both churches and individuals locally. He has brought
with him a vision for the Trust's work.
An outcome of Daniel's review was that more can be achieved by a strengthened
management team, with income to support increased part time hours for our worker. These
are objectives which the Trust will pursue in 2026-27.
Statement of Trustees, Responsibilitles

which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity at the year*nd and of its

statements, the Trustees are required to..
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently,
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent,

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 {Scotlandl

Basis of independent examiner's statement
My examination is carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the Charities Accounts (Scollandl
Regulalions 2006. An examination includes a review of the accounling records kept by the charity and
a comparison of the accounts presented wilh those records. It also includes consideration of any
unusual items or disclosures in Ihe accounts, and seeks explanations from the trustees concerning
any such matters. The pro￿dUreS undertaken do not provide all the evidence thal would be required
in an audit. and consequently I do nol express an audit opinion on the view given by the accounts.
Independent examinor's statement
In the course of my examination. no matter has come to my attention
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements..
to keep accounting records in accordance with Section 4411) (al of the 2005 Acl and
Regulation 4 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations, and
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with Regulation 9
of the 2006 Accounts Regulations have not been met, or

of the accounts to be reached.
