## **LERWICK BOATING CLUB SCIO** 

## **TRUSTEES' ANNUAL REPORT** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025**_ 

The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 December 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** 

The organisation's objectives are: 

- To promote the advancement of public participation in the sport of boating including instruction in sailing, particularly for young people. 

- To support the advancement of the seamanship heritage of Lerwick with the promotion of the Shetland Model Sailing Boat as a racing boat. 

- The provision of recreational facilities, or the organisation of recreational activities with the object of improving the conditions of life for the persons for whom the facilities or activities are primarily intended. 

The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by OSCR in deciding what activities the charity should undertake. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

In the last year, the Club has continued operating as a SCIO with the bar trading as a separate Limited Company. 

The Club continues to offer a high standard of facility to both its members and visitors, whilst also seeking to improve facilities wherever possible through a maintenance and renewal programme. 

The Club continues to benefit from high levels of volunteer support from our members, and the Club seeks to help our members by providing training for the duties they carry out wherever possible. 

The Club has a close working relationship with the Port Authority, providing washing and laundry facilities for all visiting yachts to the Harbour, with the Harbour assisting in our operations and regattas throughout the year. 

The Club also maintains excellent connections to the boating community, both locally, nationally and internationally, by hosting sailing and rowing regattas, as well as being host club and port to renowned yachts races each year. 

## **Financial review** 

Total income in the year amounted to £49,737 (2024: £70,617).  Of this £49,737 (2024: £42,877) was unrestricted and £0 (2024: £27,740) was restricted income and capital funding. 

Total expenditure in the year was £57,169 (2024: £66,192) of which £0 (2024: £9,261) was restricted expenditure resulting in an overall deficit for the year of £7,432 (2024: surplus £4,425). 

Closing reserves and net assets were £286,970 (2024: £294,402) including £25,982 (2024: £31,943) of which are restricted income and capital funds. 

The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF LERWICK BOATING CLUB SCIO** 

I report on the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2025, which are set out on pages 5 to 20. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The charity'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 charity trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10(1)(a)-(c) of the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 does not apply. 

It is my responsibility to examine the financial statements as required under section 44(1)(c) of the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005 and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **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 I 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 

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 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 

2. to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.

## **LERWICK BOATING CLUB SCIO** 

## **NOTES TO THE  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025**_ 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **Charity information** 

Lerwick Boating Club is a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation, incorporated in Scotland.  The registered office is Lerwick Boating Club, 12a Commercial Street, Lerwick, Shetland, ZE1 0AN. 

Lerwick Boating Club SCIO has a wholly owned subsidiary, Lerwick Boating Club Limited.  The aggregate gross income for the group is below the threshold for preparing consolidated accounts.  The exemption from preparing consolidated accounts has been taken and these financial statements therefore are separate financial statements for Lerwick Boating Club SCIO. 

## **1.1 Accounting convention** 

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 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 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. 

## **1.3 Charitable funds** 

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives unless the funds have been designated for other purposes. 

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 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.

## **NOTES TO THE  FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2025**_ 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **(Continued)** 

## **1.5 Expenditure** 

All Expenditure is accounted for on a accruals basis and is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to pay for expenditure, it is probable that a settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. All costs are allocated between the expenditure categories of the Statement of Financial Activities on as basis to reflect the use of the resource. 

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries.  Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities.  These costs include staff costs, overhead and governance costs. 

## **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: 

Pier, clubhouse and boat store No depreciation charge Boats and equipment 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. 

No depreciation is charged on Pier, clubhouse and boat store as a result of estimations made by the trustees. See note 2. 

## **1.7 Fixed asset investments** 

Fixed asset investments are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost less any accumulated impairment losses. 

A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the charity. 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 charity 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 Stocks** 

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price. 

## **1.10 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)** 

## **1.11 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 estimate that the residual value of the Pier, clubhouse and boat store is in excess of carrying value (as disclosed in note 13) and therefore no depreciation has been charged.
