## **Achievements and performance**
- Took ownership of premises on Lockerbie High Street which was formerly Bank of Scotland thanks to funding from South of Scotland Enterprise, commenced renovation works while we continue to source funding
- Employed Project Officer, part-time, with funding for the next year including working with HMRC and pension company
- Held monthly in person Board Meetings either on Teams and in the High Street premises
- Through the continued work of the Trustees and staff further contacts have been made in the community to ensure collaborative working at all times
- There are various organisations and groups locally who we continue to work with who have expressed a continued interest in using the building, work with stakeholders and ensure the building will provide the space they need
- Attended community events and training via media ie Teams/Zoom and in person
- Kept up to date with possible funders and foster relationships with key organisations which we can apply for funds
- Developing a close working relationship with South of Scotland Enterprise and D&G Council Economic Development Team
- Renewed our business plan on an ongoing basis for School Bank and Janitors house
This has been another very successful year for the project. We continue to grow our number of staff, developing our Board with help from DTAS and SOSE. We have continued to developing contacts within Dumfries and Galloway Council, SOSE and Third Sector Dumfries and Galloway, Holywood Trust. These contacts can help us not only financially but with the expertise they are offering.
We continue to work on promoting the project within the local area and ensuring the community are aware of the ongoing work that goes on behind the scenes. It’s easy for the community to become disheartened by the lack of obvious change in the building and we are trying to show what activities they can expect once the Old School is open. By continuing to hold community events, using the Old Bank in the high street as a ‘shop window’ we aim to encourage people to become more actively involved now rather than waiting until we are opening the Old School.
## **Financial review**
The charity's income for the year totalled £2,775,860 (2024 - £428,633) of which £5,480 (2024 - £45,737) was unrestricted and £2,770,380 (2024 - £382,896) was restricted. Of the restricted funding received, £2,669,048 was capital in nature for the development fo the Community Hub - expenditure of £2,416,036 has been capitalised as part of the Community Hub development works on the balance sheet this year. Transfers from unrestricted funds in the year of £339,588 (2024 - £82,565 to unrestricted) represent corrections to fund allocations. The charity incurred revenue expenditure of £117,215 (2024 - £143,518) of which £9,408 (2024 - £6,258) was unrestricted and £107,808 (2024 - £137,260) was restricted. The increase in income and expenditure was expected as the development of the Community Hub progressed.

**LOCKERBIE OLD SCHOOL COMMUNITY HUB (SCIO) T/A LOCKERBIE OLD SCHOOL TRUSTEES REPORT (CONTINUED)**
## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2025**_
## **Statement of the Charity's Policy on Reserves**
This Reserve Policy outlines the approach of Lockerbie Old School to maintaining financial reserves. It ensures that the charity has a financial buffer to manage risks, respond to unexpected events, and maintain stability while continuing to meet its charitable objectives.
Reserves are unrestricted funds that are freely available to be used for the general purposes of the charity. They do not include restricted funds, endowment funds, or assets tied up in long-term investments or fixed assets.
Lockerbie Old School aims to maintain reserves of £5,000, representing approximately three months of essential operating costs. This level has been set to ensure the charity can continue core functions in the event of income disruption or unforeseen expenditure.
The reserve fund exists to:
- Sustain operations during short-term funding gaps or delays
- Support the charity in responding to emergencies or unexpected costs
- Provide time for the trustees to develop a recovery plan if necessary
- Facilitate an orderly wind-down of services should the need arise
The reserve level will be reviewed quarterly by the Treasurer and discussed at board meetings. The Reserve Policy itself will be reviewed annually to ensure it remains appropriate as the organisation grows and evolves.
Use of reserve funds requires Board approval and must be:
- Supported by a clear rationale
- Documented in meeting minutes
- Accompanied by a plan replenish reserves within a reasonable timeframe where appropriate
If the reserve fund falls below the £5,000 target, the board will prioritise actions to rebuild it, such as reallocating surplus income, adjusting expenditure, or increasing fundraising efforts.
At 31 July 2025 the unrestricted reserves were £14,479 of which £1,253 were held in tangible assets, this left free reserves of £13,226, and as such the policy was met. The charity is currently in the process of completing the first stage of the building redevelopment and once this is completed this summer the Trustees will look to revisit the policy.

**LOCKERBIE OLD SCHOOL COMMUNITY HUB (SCIO) T/A LOCKERBIE OLD SCHOOL TRUSTEES REPORT (CONTINUED)**
## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2025**_
## **Principal Funding Source**
The principal funding source was grant funding received from as disclosed in note 3.
## **Risk Management**
The principal risks and uncertainties facing the charity, and the steps being taken to mitigate these risks, are as follows:
a) Capital build and plans for re-development and extension. To mitigate the risks this brings the Board have employed a project manager, and sort capital fundraising which is continuing, with the capital funds in place for the first stage.
b) Loss of Funding/Not achieving Funding Strategy this would result in income for services being reduced, staff redundancies and services lost or delivered at lower levels. The Trustees are continually monitoring funding as the building comes into community usage.
## **Going concern**
The charity relies upon grants and donations from outside sources in order to meet its day to day working capital requirements. The first phase of the capital build is funded and due to be completed in the summer of 2026 with the Centre opening to the public. The Trustees have prepared financial projections for the first three years of operation of the Centre based on their expectations of operations. The income projections are based upon expected grants based on current applications together with reasonable estimates of other income receivable, whilst expenditure forecasts are based upon known fixed costs together with reasonable estimates of expected costs. These projections indicate that the charity should achieve a deficit in the first year and then in a surplus in subsequent years. The trustees expect that they will be able to fund the deficit in the first year from existing cash reserves, however, free reserves are forecast to move into deficit of around £27,500 during that first year.
The Trustees continue to review all costs of the organisation and ensure that these are kept to a minimum. They also continue to consider ways to increase the future funding of the charity both through grant applications and the hire of the Centre to other organisations.
The Trustees have prepared budgets and forecasts for the period through until summer 2029 which show a growth at sustained levels and a contribution to reserves, based upon anticipated Centre usage based on expressed local interest, the securing of additional grant funding and increased funding levels.
At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that they can manage cashflow and that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. Thus, the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

## **LOCKERBIE OLD SCHOOL COMMUNITY HUB (SCIO) T/A LOCKERBIE OLD SCHOOL INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT**
## **TO THE TRUSTEES OF LOCKERBIE OLD SCHOOL COMMUNITY HUB (SCIO)**
## **Opinion**
We have audited the financial statements of the Lockerbie Old School Community Hub (SCIO) (‘the charity’) for the year ended 31 Jul 2025, which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Statement of Cash Flows and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, Including FRS102 ‘ The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements:
- give a true and fair view of the state of the society's affairs as at 31 July 205 and of its incoming resources and application of the resources for the year then ended;
- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and regulation 8 of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended).
## **Basis for opinion**
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs UK) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
## **Conclusions relating to going concern**
We draw attention to note 1 of the financial statements which highlight that the forecast operating conditions of the charity are uncertain with limited free reserves. These conditions indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Trustee’s use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate. Our evaluation of the Trustees assessment of the entity’s ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting included assessing the clients budget and cashflow forecasts.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the Trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
## **Other information**
The other information comprises the information in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.

**LOCKERBIE OLD SCHOOL COMMUNITY HUB (SCIO) T/A LOCKERBIE OLD SCHOOL INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED) TO THE TRUSTEES OF LOCKERBIE OLD SCHOOL COMMUNITY HUB (SCIO)**
## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception**
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities and Trustees Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended) requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
- the information given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the Report of the Trustees’;
- Proper accounting records have not been kept; or
- The financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records; or
- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit
## **Responsibilities of trustees**
As explained more fully in the statement of trustees’ responsibilities set out on page 6, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements which give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
## **Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements**
We have been appointed as auditor under section 44(1)(c) of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
Irregularities that result from fraud are inherently more difficult to detect than irregularities that result from error.
From enquiries of those charged with governance, it was determined that the risk of material misstatement from fraud was low with little scope for fraud to occur. Our audit testing is designed to detect material misstatements from fraud where there is not high level collusion.
Our audit testing was designed to detect material misstatements from other irregularities that result from error where there is not high level concealment of the error. In this regard the following audit work was undertaken: applicable laws and regulations were reviewed and discussed with management; senior management meeting minutes were reviewed; internal controls were reviewed; and journals were reviewed. From this audit testing it was determined that the risk of material misstatement in this regard was low.
We performed income and expenditure testing which was designed to identify any irregularities as a result of mistakes or human error. From this audit testing it was determined that the risk of material misstatement in this regard was low.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's constitution, 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 charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. 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**
The charity relies upon grants and donations from outside sources in order to meet its day to day working capital requirements. The first phase of the capital build is funded and due to be completed in the summer of 2026 with the Centre opening to the public. The Trustees have prepared financial projections for the first three years of operation of the Centre based on their expectations of operations. The income projections are based upon expected grants based on current applications together with reasonable estimates of other income receivable, whilst expenditure forecasts are based upon known fixed costs together with reasonable estimates of expected costs. These projections indicate that the charity should achieve a deficit in the first year and then in a surplus in subsequent years. The trustees expect that they will be able to fund the deficit in the first year from existing cash reserves, however, free reserves are forecast to move into deficit of around £27,500 during that first year.
The Trustees continue to review all costs of the organisation and ensure that these are kept to a minimum. They also continue to consider ways to increase the future funding of the charity both through grant applications and the hire of the Centre to other organisations.
The Trustees have prepared budgets and forecasts for the period through until summer 2029 which show a growth at sustained levels and a contribution to reserves, based upon anticipated Centre usage based on expressed local interest, the securing of additional grant funding and increased funding levels.
At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that they can manage cashflow and that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and for a period of at least 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. 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 Accounting policies**
## **(Continued)**
## **1.4 Income**
Income is recognised when the charity 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.
Grants are recognised where entitlement is not conditional on the delivery of a specific performance by the charity, are recognised when the charity becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity 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.
## **1.5 Expenditure**
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis when a liability is incurred, Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates.
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be directly attributed to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.
Support costs are costs whose functions assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include finance and governance costs. These costs have been wholly allocated to charitable activities.
## **1.6 Tangible fixed assets**
Costing in excess of £1,000 are capitalised. 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:
Freehold land and buildings Nil Computers 25% Straight line
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.
Assets under constuction developed are considered for impairment and will be depreciated upon completion of the project.
## **1.7 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 Accounting policies**
## **(Continued)**
## **1.8 Financial instruments**
The charity 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 charity's balance sheet when the charity 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 charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
## **2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements**
In the application of the charity’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.
The trustees are of the opinion that there are no critical accounting estimates or judgements that would have a material impact on the financial statements.
