BOOMERANG COMMUNITY CENTRE SCIO TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2025.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's governing document, the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005, the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006, FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" 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)".

Objectives and activities

Boomerang Community Centre SCIO exists to provide a safe, welcoming and inclusive environment for people of all ages within the Stobswell and wider Dundee community. Our charitable purposes are to relieve poverty, advance community development, promote citizenship and volunteering, and improve the physical and mental wellbeing of those experiencing social isolation, disadvantage or exclusion.

We deliver a range of community-led services designed to respond flexibly to local need. These include our Community Food Larder, Cosy Café, Lunch Club, Stay and Play toddler provision, youth groups, social activities, volunteering opportunities and partnership projects. Alongside direct service delivery, we work collaboratively with local agencies, schools, statutory services and other third sector organisations to strengthen community resilience and ensure that those most in need can access appropriate support.

Our activities are shaped by ongoing dialogue with service users, volunteers and partners, ensuring that our provision remains responsive, accessible and rooted in lived experience.

Public benefit

The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by OSCR (Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator) in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.

Achievements and performance

Significant activities and achievements against objectives

During the 2024-5 year, Boomerang continued to operate as a key community anchor organisation within an area of high deprivation. Demand across all services remained strong, particularly within our food provision and social activities, reflecting continued cost of living pressures and social isolation within the community.

Our Community Food Larder operated three days per week, providing affordable food and access to additional support where required. The Cosy Café and Lunch Club offered daily opportunities for connection, reducing loneliness while providing nutritious, free or low-cost meals.

Stay and Play sessions supported families with children aged 0-5, offering structured play, peer support and early intervention opportunities. Youth groups provided safe, creative spaces for young people, promoting confidence, resilience and positive relationships.

Across all programmes, we prioritised dignity, relationship-based support and volunteer involvement. We maintained a strong and active volunteer base, enabling community members to contribute meaningfully to the life of the organisation.

Despite funding uncertainty within the wider sector, the organisation remained stable, responsive and visible within local partnership networks.

BOOMERANG COMMUNITY CENTRE SCIO TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025

Financial review

Total income for the year was £360,086 derived from a combination of grant funding, fundraising activity, earned income from services and donations. The charity remains grateful to its funders, donors and community supporters whose contributions make our work possible.

Expenditure totalled £351,174 with the majority allocated to staffing costs, reflecting our commitment to providing consistent, relationship-based support. Additional expenditure covered premises costs, utilities, service delivery costs and governance expenses.

For the year to 31 March 2025 the charity made a surplus of £8,912 (2024 - £32,966) of which £14,969 (2024 - deficit £29,223) was on unrestricted funds and deficit of £6,057 (2024 - surplus £62,219) on restricted funds. At 31 March 2025 the charity had total funds of £193,734 (2024 - £184,822) of which £76,004 (2024 - £61,035) is unrestricted and £117,730 (2024 - £123,787) is restricted.

The charity continues to manage its finances prudently, with clear oversight from the Treasurer and Board of Trustees. Financial systems were strengthened during the year, supporting improved budget monitoring, reporting and transparency.

Going concern

The Trustees have assessed the charity’s financial position and projected cash flow and are satisfied that Boomerang Community Centre SCIO remains a going concern.

While parts of the charity’s income are grant dependent and subject to renewal, the Trustees are actively pursuing continuation funding and diversification of income streams. Cash flow forecasting indicates that the charity can meet its liabilities as they fall due for the foreseeable future.

The Trustees therefore consider it appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.

The Trustees reviewed the charity’s reserves policy in February 2025 to ensure it reflects organisational risk and sustainability. The policy aims to hold unrestricted reserves equivalent to approximately one month of full payroll costs, alongside provision for statutory redundancy liabilities and essential core commitments.

At the year end, unrestricted reserves totalled £76,004 (2024 - £61,035). This level of reserves is considered appropriate in light of the charity's size, funding profile and risk exposure.

The Trustees recognise the importance of maintaining adequate reserves to ensure continuity of service in the event of funding delays or unforeseen financial pressures.

This policy has been met - see note 17.

Major risks

The Trustees actively review and monitor risk through regular Board meetings and financial reporting. Key risks identified during the year included funding uncertainty, increasing demand on services, rising utility costs, and staff capacity pressures.

Mitigation measures include diversified income generation, regular budget monitoring, maintaining appropriate reserves, strong partnership working, and clear policies and procedures covering safeguarding, health and safety, data protection and financial controls.

The Board continues to review risk proactively to ensure the charity remains resilient and responsive.

Plans for future periods

In the coming year, the charity will focus on strengthening long-term sustainability, securing multi-year funding where possible and increasing earned income to reduce reliance on short-term grants.

We aim to continue developing our food provision, youth activities and social inclusion programmes, ensuring they remain responsive to community need. We will also continue investing in staff and volunteer development, strengthening governance and improving impact measurement.

Strategic priorities include building financial resilience, deepening community partnerships and maintaining Boomerang’s role as a safe and trusted space within the community.

Charity information

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's governing document, the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005, the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006, FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" 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)". The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

The charity 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 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. Prior period The accounts for the year to 31 March 2024 were prepared under the Receipts and Payments method. The comparative figures have been restated as if they had been prepared under the accruals basis. The Funds under the Receipts and Payments Basis was £190,262 adjustments have been made to include property at £1 and creditors of £5,441 giving restated reserves of £184,822 using the accruals basis.

1.3 Going concern

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity 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.

1.4 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.

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.

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.

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. Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the category of resources for which it was incurred.

(Continued)

Governance costs are those incurred in connection with administration of the charity and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements.

1.7 Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are measured at cost, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

Any asset purchased over the value of £500 is capitalised.

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

No depreciation is charged in respect of properties held because they are maintained in a state of repair, such that the estimated residual value of land and buildings at the balance sheet date is not less than their net book value.

1.8 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.

1.9 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.

(Continued)

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity's contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

1.10 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 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.

Critical judgements

Accruals

Accruals are applied at the year end based upon financial costs received post year end and the experience of the trustees.
