## **Ye Amphibious Ancients Bathing Association**
## **Charity Number SC040107**
## **Trustees' Annual Report**
The trustees have pleasure in presenting their report and financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2025
## **Current Trustees**
Trustees during the year ended 31 March 2025 and at signing date;
## **Recruitment and Appointment of Trustees**
All of the charity's trustees are appointed or reappointed by the members at our AGM in accordance with our constitution.
## **Governing Document**
The charity is governed by a written constitution and is managed by a committee of members chosen for their suitability to run the charity. The committee meets monthly.
## **Charitable Purposes**
To teach swimming indoors to all age groups, to promote open water swimming and organise championships outdoors.
## **Activities and Achievements**
The financial year saw YeAABA income stabilise as we were able to carry out sustained fundraising activities.
In terms of Pool swimming, we have now restarted a learn to swim club as well as a club indoor session on a Friday evening from 5-8pm at St Johns. The closure of pools in the Dundee areas has assisted us with the LTS take up such that this portion is now self-sustaining with over 80 persons signed up for lessons.
The Dook went ahead again in the current year (January 2025), therefore income revenue from the Dook programme realised. This
income is mainly generated by the programme, and through the event itself, this provided a much-needed boost for club funds, setting the club up for the open water season.
The normal running costs involved in operating the club has remained much the same as in previous years. We replaced the four Non-Yamaha 4HP engines with new Yamaha ones.
The additional spend was met from a program of fundraising and applying for funding from local sources. Again, we recognise that traditional fundraising menthods are in decline and we shall continue the need to make more use of applying for funding bids to meet our needs.
We are looking to dispose of one of our older and heavier boats in favour of purchasing a replacement of the type we already use.

## **Ye Amphibious Ancients Bathing Association**
## **Charity Number SC040107**
## **Trustees' Annual Report (continued)**
## **Trustee Remuneration Expenses**
No remuneration was paid to any trustee.
## **Reserves**
It is the aim of the charity to have in reserves sufficient funds to meet the charity's obligations for a minimum of twelve months.
## **Financial Review**
Throughout the financial year YeAABA has seen the income increase significantly as they received some grants in order to do some larger works that were required to ensure the clubhouse and boat stock was maintaining to the necessary standard.
Fundraising activites have also taken place throught the last financial year.
Costs were up on 23/24 but as noted above that was investment from the trustees in the facilities of the charity.
FY 24/5 saw small increase in cashflow and at the year end the charity had achieved a surplus of £4,414 as an income from its activities.
YeAABA remains relatively financially stable to continue its activities at this time.
Although YeAABA is a membership organisation generating a large proportion of its income through trading, it still places a smaller, but not insignificant, dependency on the goodwill of its supporters and general donations.

## **Independent Examiner's Report**
## **For the year ended 31 March 2025**
## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Ye Amphibious Ancients Bathing Association**
I report on the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2025, which are set out pages 4 to 9.
## **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) (d) of the 2006 regulations does not apply. It is my responsibility to examine the accounts as required under section 44(1) (c) of the 2005 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. 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 seeks explanations from the trustees concerning 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:
- 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 comply with Regulation 9 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.
