## **Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2025**
The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2025. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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).
## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES**
## **Objectives and aims**
Comann Eachdraidh Uibhist a Tuath's mission is to actively collect and conserve items from the past and present that reflect the heritage and Gaelic language of the geographical area of North Uist in order to educate and inspire present and future generations through a wide range of lifelong learning experiences.
To organise and arrange exhibitions, displays, lectures and other events relating to the work of the society and to work with universities, schools, colleges and other reputable agencies which have an interest in the work and aims of the society.
The advancement of education through a better understanding of the built and natural environment of North Uist and the development of individual skills, capabilities and understanding to improve the lives of the inhabitants of the area and the public in general.
The provision of social facilities and activities to improve the lives of the inhabitants of North Uist and the public in general.
The advancement of the heritage, language and culture of North Uist by preserving the Museum known as Taigh Chearsabhagh and developing the base now established at Carinish School.
## **Background**
Comann Eachdraidh Uibhist a Tuath was formed in 1989. Since that time the organisation has been funded for many innovative exhibitions, outreach projects and events, culminating in an annual exhibition and two smaller exhibitions each year based at the local Heritage and Arts centre at Taigh Chearsabhagh in Lochmaddy. Following a successful application to OSCR, the charity was awarded charitable status on 17 February 2017. The funds held by the organisation at that date were transferred to the charity.
Comann Eachdraidh Uibhist a Tuath holds significant collections of artefacts, photographs, paper archives and sound recordings. Our application for funding from the Scottish Land Fund to purchase Carinish School and Schoolhouse was successful. This location will provide a base for all our collections and enable us to establish a Heritage and Community Centre.

Where the Sea Meets the Road - The History of Caledonian MacBrayne
This exhibition has been extended for a further year as visitor numbers have been high. It has attracted wide interest and comprises the lifelong mission of a CEUT member, of Lochmaddy, to collect memorabilia relating to Caledonian MacBrayne. It comprises impressive accurate models of Calmac boats which have served our islands over the years and many other artefacts. Local residents, Calmac staff, Captains and others have contributed with stories of their memories.
This exhibition has attracted widespread publicity and is recognised as one of the most significant collections of Calmac memorabilia to date. There have been no exhibitions in Gallery 2 this year. The focus has been on Carinish School.
## Carinish School
The Board of Trustees of CEUT has focussed on trying to achieve funding for the development of the Carinish School building. The Board recognised that it was not possible to achieve the funding necessary to develop the whole building as planned initially. A decision to develop an area to house our collection of artefacts was taken. Our collection has been stored at the Comhairle store at Torlum with the Museum nan collection but access is dependent on Comhairle staff. The community will benefit from the collection being stored and accessible on North Uist.
## **Capital Funding Sub Committee**
A significant grant from Scottish Government Gaelic Development has enabled work to commence on developing a Collections Resource Centre. This will allow most of our artefacts and records to be moved to Sgoil Chàirinis from the Comhairle museum store at Torlum. We are extremely grateful to the Scottish Government Gaelic Development team and to Fraser Architecture and 7-22 Systems Ltd for enabling this. Also to the Comhairle and the Outer Hebrides Community Led Local Development Local Action Group for advice and financial assistance.
Heritage Consulting has been appointed to produce a Business Plan. This will be completed in May and should be of great assistance in supporting applications for further grants to enable further phases of development. We are grateful to the Architectural Heritage Fund and the Comhairle for financial support for this work.
Last year we reported that "there has been promise of £20 million of Levelling Up Fund monies to Comhairle nan Eilean Siar. Meetings with UK Government officials are due this coming May and June. Due to the subsequent snap General Election these meetings did not take place. The new Labour Government has confirmed that £20 million will still be available to the Comhairle through the Community Renewal Fund. A round of meetings with Government officials has been arranged for the coming months and we hope that support for our development project will be forthcoming.
Further landscaping works around the building have been undertaken by Contractors and roof repairs by Archie Beaton. Boiler repairs were undertaken by . We thank them for their readiness to advise and assist.
## **Further Community Led Local Development Funding**
We acknowledge with thanks grant aid received from the Comhairle's Community Led Local Development Fund (CLLD) to update some of our computer and recording equipment which will hopefully enhance the delivery of future events - events which of necessity are on hold for the time being on account of the building works in progress. This grant led to the purchase of laptops, external drives and field recorders. Thank you to those of our trustees who worked to achieve the funding and to order the equipment.
## **Looking back on the Aire air Sunnd project.**
This project received repeat funding for a second year.
Its legacy from the second year. -how can heritage contribute to wellbeing?

## **Photographic/Cupan aig Càirinis/ Gaelic group**
During "Open Days" last summer we were pleased to welcome many visitors including a number from abroad. It was satisfying to be able to help people with genealogy enquiries and assist them in tracing their ancestors and relations in Uist. In some cases that entailed producing family trees for which people were exceedingly grateful - with some subsequently applying to become members.
Our "Cupan aig Càirinis" events, encompassing a range of topics ranging from "Life as a Ranger on St Kilda", " Around the world in 46 years" to "Balaich an Iasgaich" and "Nollaig Chridheil with children from Sgoil Uibhist a Tuath" and "an t-seann Bhliadhn Ùr`"(Old New Year customs ) .We are grateful for the support of the community at all these events. We have enjoyed excellent presentations with very positive feed back which is a testimony to the preparatory work done and dedication of those presenting. We are very grateful for the kind donations of home baking received on several occasions. Our most recent "Cupan" featuring a presentation and discussion on Old Uist shops and grocery vans drew such a large number from the community that we now need to consider extending our existing meeting room to provide more space.
During "Seachdainn na Gàidhlig" we were delighted to unearth/locate and show an old video featuring taking us around Uist whilst discussing some bàrdachd and other interesting topics - in own inimitable way During the past year some of us have contributed in giving a North Uist perspective to and had some involvement in the drawing up of a draft of a "Uist Gàidhlig Plan" which is due to go out(hopefully shortly) for public consultation.
## **Treasures of Scotland Workshop**
This workshop was organised by Treasure Trove and was valued by all who participated.
## **Museum Accreditation**
Full Accreditation for 5 years was awarded in July 2024 to our Museum at TC and CEUT as the owners of the Collection of Artefacts, Paper archive material and Oral Recordings.
This is a significant achievement by a small historical society. It involved a great deal of work on policies, plans and statements to adhere to Museums Galleries Scotland and Arts Council England standards.
Those of us involved in this work would like to thank Robin Patel, our Mentor, Jennifer Youngson of Museums Galleries Scotland and Caitriona MacCuish of the Comhairle Heritage Team for their support and guidance.

## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES**
The trustees are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Charity law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law, the trustees have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law).
Under charity law the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charity for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and The Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended). They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Approved by order of the board of trustees on 19 December 2025 and signed on its behalf by:

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Comann Eachdraidh Uibhist a Tuath**
I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2025 set out on pages eight to fourteen.
## **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
- 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 to comply with Regulation 8 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.
