ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

The Garadh continues to work with a few part time staff but many more willing and knowledgeable volunteers, both in the garden and café. Without their input the project would not be able to function. We still work closely with those with support needs who are also an integral part of the project.

Garden

Despite the loss of our principal gardener in the Spring, the garden output was maintained to a similar level as last year due to the hard work and commitment of a dedicated volunteer base. New staff have now been recruited which should help with forward planning. We continued to supply the local shop and restaurants with produce as well as selling from our own premises. Plant sales on other islands took place as usual and were a chance for the whole team to spend a day together and meet other gardeners appreciative of the work they had put in.

Café

The café remains a popular venue for both locals and tourists alike during the summer months, although footfall was down this year compared to last year. There is now increased competition on the island plus it was generally felt that visitor numbers to the island were down this year and people were more conscious of their spend due to the increased cost of living. The café was able to stay open for 3 days a week during the winter to provide a warm and welcoming space for local people to gather and enjoy a reasonably priced meal. Fresh food, using produce from the garden in season, continued to be on offer with imaginative menus being tried out.

Renewables

Phase Two of the Turbine Refurbishment was completed in late September. This involved bringing all the energy generated onto the site, with backup battery systems, to ensure the most efficient use of power and leading to a reduction in our carbon footprint and our energy bills. We are grateful to the funders who made this possible.

Project Manager

Lottery funding was secured for a 3-year Project Manager post of 20 hours per week. This gives the manager time to oversee the project on a daily basis and develop plans for the future, without the constant need to try to secure funding. This also takes a bit of pressure off the charity's finances and helps us build up a contingency fund.

Wellness Co-ordinator

Funding for a further year was obtained for this valuable post which continues to expand its activities to include weekly messy play sessions for babies and toddlers in conjunction with the local Children's Centre. Groups of children from the local nursery come weekly and thoroughly enjoy their time in the garden. Health walks and gentle exercise classes for older and disabled people are popular, and the numbers have grown. A singing group has now been established and meets weekly at the Garadh.

Food Bank/Food Larder

The Food Bank is hosted by the Garadh but run by its own set of volunteers. The Food Larder is run by the Garadh with our own staff collecting the excess from the Co-op daily. This food is available to anyone without the need to be referred. Some funding has been obtained to fund a post to run and oversee this valuable resource.

STRATEGIC REVIEW

With assistance from HIE (Highlands and Islands Enterprise) a Strategic Review was conducted by Community Enterprise which involved in-depth interviews with trustees, staff and volunteers as well as users of the various projects. This highlighted the strengths and weaknesses of the current working practices and helped formulate plans for future growth. Many of the recommendations have been implemented and others are in process.

A major finding was the lack of administrative support. The Project Manager and Trustees were spending a significant amount of time on these tasks to the detriment of general oversight and planning. As a result of a funding application, HIE contracted to support a 25hr a week post for 2 years to give us time and space to become more organised and efficient. The post has been filled as a job-share which commenced September 2025.

Business Energy Scotland also reviewed our energy needs and current set-up and made recommendations. These were helpful in supporting funding applications for the renewables refurbishment.

HIE also supported a contribution to staffing costs for the café and garden over the winter months which helped us remain open to provide a warm and welcoming space to combat the sense of social isolation felt as a result of the wild winter weather.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Garadh A Bhagh A Tuath SCIO

I report on the accounts for the year ended 30 September 2025 set out on pages seven to twenty two.

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
