Principal Activity Leisure Facility Mission, Objectives and Strategy Charitable Objectives and Aims To assist in the provision of recreational facilities and, where appropriale. the organisation of recreational acb-vities available lo members of the public al large, with the object of improving their conditions of life..

Strategy Significant Activities The Quay Zone (roz) opened its doors in April 2017. Since opening it has been well supported by the GiNan and South Carrick community and has enjoyed financial stsbility. This has been the case despite the nearly two years of inteUpIed services due to the Covid 19 pandemic followed unceremoniously by the damage to the roof of TQZ caused by stomi Isha in January 2024. In last year's accounts we reported that the damage caused by water ingress throughout the building had resulted in ils dosure for the foreseeable future. Following the closure, we were fortunate to be able to agree a lease of a temporary swirnming pool in Maybole which we opened at the end of February 2024. This was followed in July by premises from which we were able to provide gym facilities and accommodation for limited fitness classes. We are grateful to Soulh Ayrshire Council (SAC) for Iheir assistance in securing both premises. During the financial year 2024125 the loss of TQZ has had a profound affect on our ability to provide our previous range of Services. Securing a lease of the former Maybole Swimming Pool was a tremendous stroke of luck and allowed us to provide a near full range of activities including to general and lane swimming, fun float and aquafit sessions. our Learn to Swim programme for junior swimmers and, from January 2025, a full primary schools swimming programme. The availability of trained and qualified staff meant that initially opening hours had lo be restricted to three full days and Saturday moming and although we had hoped to increase this later in the year this did not prove lo be possible.
South Carrick Community Leisure IA company limited by guaranteo, not having a sharg capital) TRUSTEES. ANNUAL REPORT for the financial year ended 31 March 2025 Initially, as reported last yearfs annual a¢¢ounls, altendances for the Learn lo Swim and olher activities was high, 240 participants per month in May 2024 but this figure fell to 210 by March 2025 a fall of 12.5 /.. We believe the Ios5 of youn9 swimrners can be attributed to a de9ree of faligue, cost and inconvenience of travelling to Maybole over an extended period. Whilst numbers for Aquafit and lane swimming have remained relatively constant other swimming sessions were not well attended and Trustees continued lo balance the desire for additional days of opening of the pool against any likely increase in income and attendance and the availability of trained and qualified staff. Although slightly later than hoped we were able to agree the lease of the ground floor of the Girvan Community Centre with South Ayrshire Council. This has been used to provide a good-sized gym and space for a weekly programme of 19 instructor led fftness classes together with a re-located general office spa. Membership since opening in July 2024 increased month on month and stood at 365 by the end of March 2025. Ofthese about 55 people used their membership almost exclusively to swim {lane swimming and Aquafit) the remainder (850/0 of members) used their membership for gym and fitness dass attendance. Support for our staff was a significant operational consideration sin. as with Covid, we were clear Ihal resuming a fijll Quay Zone operation wotjld happen although we did not know when. In practice we have been able to retain all fjjll and part lime employees throughout the disruption and deploy them across the operational sites. However. it ha5 proved exceedingly challenging at times to maintain the requisite skills and supeNision levels at the locations. In the case of the swimming pool al Maybole these problems have been exacerbated by the age and breakdown prone nature of some of the equipment. Trustees are grateful to the staff for, at times, 'mucking in" to keep the facilities and services operational and welcoming to the community. As set out in these aOuntS 2024125 has proved a cha15enging trading year for South Carrick Community Leisure {.8-CL). While we have been able to maintain a level of membership income we had to reduce the price from the previous £28 per month to £20 reflecting the reduced service offer we have been able to make and, in respect of the Swimming pool, the greater travel distan for customers. Nevertheless, maintaining a Presence and setvice across our principal activities has been key to maintaining our charitable purpose over the year. Significantly. in the absence of all our olher facilities little or no additional income has been possible. Since 2017 the charity has. as part of its insurance cover, maintained a Business Interruptlon policy. Since the stomi we have received pay-outs totalling £200K. The policy covers up to years of service interruption taking us up until February 2026. Without its provisions it 15 unlikely South Carrick Community Leisure would have been able to maintain its sejvices. Negotiations are on-going lo determine further business interruption payments that will take us up to the end of the pay-out period covered by this aspect of our insurance. Following the dosure of The Quay Zone our landlord. South Ayrshire Council. effectively took control of the building as, although we pay for it, the Council maintain5 our building fabric Insurance cover and through that, dealings with the insurers. Following the storm, the focus was on getting the building wind and water tight once more. Such was the damage this required that the building be re-roofed. This took until July 2024. Once this was achieved work began on drying the interior of the structure and removing all damaged parts of the building. In practice thi5 has involved stripping out walls, floors, ceilings SeiceS and essentially everything on Ihe custoffler accessible side of the building leaving only a shell. In January 2024 Trustees had been discussing wtth South Ayrshire Council the possibility of a further investment in the building to provide increased café and meeting Spa together with a terrace on the first floor offering views out to Ailsa Craig. This latter component was always an aspiration for the building but one that could not be met in 2017. In view of the damage caused by the storm it was decided that the potential extension and the reinstatement ofthe storm damage should, so far as possible, be completed at the same time. This proposal became a reality when towards the end of Ihe financial year the Council approved fijnding and reached agreement with ils insurers over the re-instatement of the building. As this report is being prepared tenders for all the work are being progressed by SAC and it is expected that all work will start by the middle of 2025. During the course of the year separate discussions have continued with our insurers to determine the extent of material and equipment losses. Tentative write offs for the soft play and gym equipment have been agreed and we hope to agree the remainder of our losses early in the next financial year allowing for our claim to be settled in time to purchase replacements for the fijture re-opening. Financially the accounts demonstrate that the charity continues lo trade in a sustainable way, nOlthstanding the challenges presented by the loss of the Quay Zone in January, 2024. The Statement of Financial Activities identifies that Total income {£661,3821 was £124,086 less than the previous year reflecting the loss of trading income caused by the loss of TQZ facilities and having to charge less for the facilities and seN1$ we were able lo provide. Whilst Total Expenditure was reduced. £669.144 this year compared with £810,019 last year were able to trade viabty (net loss of £(7,762)) as a result of the Boards prudent investment in Business Inlerruption insurance. As mentioned in last yearfs Accounts Trustees have been working with SAC to agree the refurbishment and repair of

It has been agreed that the swimming pool, gym and fitness sludios together wth ancillary changing facilities will be handed back to SCCL in late December 2025 while the extension element of the building will follow on towards the end of March 2026. In practice this will mean thal it should be possible to reinstate a full membership offer al the beginning of 2026 with a full café soft play and other activities package being available from Easter 2026. However. ahead of resuming services at the Quay Zone a great deal needs to be done to redesign and procure new gym equipment, a new soft play structure a cornplete refft of Ihe café together wilh making a host of staff. back office and organisational changes and affangemenls. Trustees are indebted to South Ayrshire Council for its continued financial and practical support. Vve are also indebted to Nadara, funder of the Assel Valley Community Benefit Fund and the Tralorg Community Benefrt Company, for their continued financial supporl. Looking forward to 2025126 During 2025126 Trustees and staff will be focused on a number of key areas".

Regrettably the challenges facing the chatity have, if anything increased over the last year and continued success will require the renewed commitment and contribution of all TnJstees to return the Charity lo more normal operations in 2026 and beyond. Financial Review The results for the financial year are set out on page 13 and additional notes are provided showing income and expenditure in grealer detail. Financial Results At the end of the financial year the charity has assets of £541,60612024 - £555,699) and liabilities of £108,364 {2024 - £114,695). The net assets of the charity have decreased by £(7.762). Financlal Positions In a "nomial. operating year the charity's income is derived from the provision of goods, services and facilities (trading income) logelher with granl support from South Ayrshire Council and contributions froffl two windfarm community benefit companies. Durfing 2024-25 trading income was severely restricted as a result of the loss of TQZ. but as sel out elsewhere alternative factlity provision was secured ensuring that from July 2024 reduced membership income coutd be generated from gym, swim and classes togetherwith payments for our Learn to Swim programme for young leamers. We were fortunate Ihat grant and Community benefit support continued to be made available and taken together wth Business Interwption Insurance claims the operaling loss shown in these accounts will be completely mitigated once a settlement with insurers is reached. SCCL is in part fvnded by Nadara Assel Valley Cornmunity Fund (South Carrick Community Leisure), administered by Foundation Scotland. Reserves Position and Policy As a volunteer led communty enterprise trustees consider that the enterprise faces a number of risks that require it to maintain financial reserves in relation to the following-. Unforeseen cost pressure brought about by either aloss of a major grant funder or an unforeseen signrficant increase in, for example, energy costs. In the event that TQZ could not continue lo trade on a break-even basis and trustees considered that it was not a viable ongoing concem. In such circumstances Trustees would need to affed an orderly wind-up of all trading activities. Under our propety leasè responsibility for replacemenv refurbishment of plant and equipment is the charity's responsibility and given the scale and complexity of the plant and machinery in use for healing, power, ventilation and water treatment, could present significant cost implications, particulady as the building ages. Significant components of our income relate lo the gym, the soft play and the café. We require to periodically invest in replacement and upgrades to these facilities beyond the routine investment in timely maintenance and repair. Failure to invest in this way could result in a trading loss. The reseryes fvnd will also function as a buffer for cash flow issues arising as a result of grants and income funds being received in arrears. Level of Reserves Required Based on the foregoing reseNes policy rationale, Trustee have concluded that Ihe following level of reserves needs to be maintained.. Cost Description Amount or Basis of Calculation Amount Unforeseen cost pressures Winding up of enterprise Doubling of utility costs £88,000 3 Months operating costs £212,000

FUTURE PLANS Throughout 2024-25 the emphasis has beon on providiTr3 and sustsining a range of GOTe seNices from the temporary faolities in Gip4an and Maybole. During 2025-26 the inilial focus will be on planning and preparing to resume services al The Quay Zone. Currently Il is planned that the swimming pool, gym and studio spaces will be returned lo us in late December 2025 with the remainder of the extended building (café and soft play) maée available to us by the end of the finanGial year. The resumption of services in a completely refurtjished and extended building will, in many ways. be equivalenl to original opening in 2017. Consequently, procuring new gym, soft play, café and other equipment will be a priority a5 will training and back office preparation for the phased reinlroduction of Servi5. Trustees and management will be focused on preparing for a full resuTnption of setvices by the end ol the next financial year.
