TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MAY 2025
Evidence of Impact
Over the course of the year, our programmes reached a wide cross-section of the community. The Fairfield Food Larder supported an average of 250 households each week , reducing food insecurity for local families. Our sports programmes engaged more than 450 children and young people across school sessions, community football, and development squads. The new women’s walking football initiative has already attracted 15 regular participants , with positive feedback on health and wellbeing benefits. Family programmes such as Pram Walking and Mini & Tiny Jamesies welcomed 30 parents/carers and children , while the Innostitch project delivered 4 craft sessions a week (9 kids in each class) and 4 employability workshops , supporting participants with new skills and confidence. Attendance at our £2 Community Panto exceeded expectations, with 240 community members taking part.
These figures demonstrate not only the scale of participation but also the breadth of need in the East End of Dundee. They highlight the Hub’s role in tackling inequality, promoting health and wellbeing, and providing inclusive opportunities for people of all ages.
Financial review
The charity’s income for the year came from a mix of grant funding, donations, fundraising, and earned income from facility hire.
Expenditure was focused on staff costs, project delivery, and improvements to facilities, including flooring and community hub works.
While securing ongoing core funding continues to be challenging, the charity has managed resources carefully. The Trustees are committed to maintaining a prudent reserves policy to safeguard future sustainability.
During the year ended 31 May 2025, Fairfield Community Sports Hub SCIO reported total income of £387,637 . This was largely made up of restricted and unrestricted grant funding, donations, and income generated from community services such as the Food Larder and studio hire. Expenditure for the year totalled £288,766 , primarily reflecting investment in staff wages, essential repairs and maintenance, and project delivery costs. This resulted in a net surplus of £98,771 .
Fairfield Community Hub Limited, the trading subsidiary, achieved turnover of £119,092 through activities such as pitch hire, café income, studio hire, and the jetwash facility. Administrative costs of £74,075 were recorded, leading to an operating profit of £77,311 . After including small amounts of other income, the final profit for the year stood at £77,321 . Profits are to be gift-aided to the parent charity to support its community activities.
Taken together, the charity and subsidiary continue to demonstrate a healthy ability to generate both grant and earned income streams. While the SCIO recorded a deficit this year due to exceptional repairs and maintenance costs, the trading subsidiary delivered a strong surplus which offsets pressures on unrestricted funds. The trustees continue to monitor finances carefully and are confident the organisation remains in a stable position going forward.
Going concern
The trustees have considered the financial position and future plans of the organisation, including the confirmed funding streams and projected income from the trading subsidiary. On this basis, the trustees are satisfied that Fairfield Community Sports Hub SCIO has adequate resources to continue to operate for the foreseeable future and therefore the accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis.
Reserves policy
The trustees review the reserves position regularly to ensure that the organisation maintains sufficient unrestricted funds to meet ongoing commitments and manage cash flow. The policy is to hold reserves equivalent to at least three months of core expenditure , providing a buffer against unexpected costs or delays in funding. At year end, the charity’s unrestricted reserves were £100k+, which the trustees consider adequate to support planned activity and future development.
Structure, governance and management
Fairfield Community Sports Hub SCIO is registered as a charitable company limited by guarantee.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The Company's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. The Company trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10(1)(a)-(c) of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 does not apply.

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 financial statements presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements, and seeking 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 | do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the financial statements.
Independent examiner'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 44(1)(a) of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and Regulation 4 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006, and
-
- to prepare financial statements which accord with the accounting records and comply with Regulation 8 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006
have not been met, or
- to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.

1 Accounting policies
Charity information
Fairfield Community Sports Hub SCIO is a Charity registered in Scotland. The principle address is Drumgeith Pavillion, Drumgeith Road, Dundee, DD4 0JX.
1.1 Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Company's articles and memorandum, the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005, the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended), FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the Charities SORP "Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)" (effective 1 January 2019). The Company is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The Company has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the Company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
1.2 Going concern
At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
1.3 Charitable funds
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.
1.4 Income
Income is recognised when the Company is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the Company has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the Company has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

(Continued)
1.5 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.
Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
1.6 Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Equipment 25% reducing balance/ or 10% straight line Motor vehicles 25% reducing balance
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.
1.7 Fixed asset investments
Fixed asset investments are initially measured at transaction price excluding transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Changes in fair value are recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred.
A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the Company. Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities.
1.8 Impairment of fixed assets
At each reporting end date, the Company reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).
1.9 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

1.10 Financial instruments
The Company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the Company's balance sheet when the Company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Company’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
1.11 Employee benefits
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.
Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the Company is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
1.12 Retirement benefits
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.

2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the Company’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
Key sources of estimation uncertainty
Depreciation
Fixed assets are depreciated over their expected useful lives. Useful lives of assets are reviewed regularly, taking into consideration the assets physical condition.
