ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE |
Review of the year |
CHAIRMAN’S REPORT |
With the pandemic effects continuing in the leisure and hospitality sector we are again very proud that we have been able to keep the pool open despite periodic increases in COVID infections. Many pools have been unable or slow to reopen. In terms of actions we have been successful in receiving a number of grants to help us recover and remain open. These are:- |
o Sport England: Community Leisure Recovery Fund (£40,934) |
o Postcode Local Trust (South West) (£16,500); and |
o Applicable Government COVID-19 related grants. |
We are very grateful to our two major funders last year. The Postcode Local Trust funded our gas, water and electricity bills for 3 months. The Sport England Community Leisure Recovery Fund supported the re-opening of the pool following COVID closures and in addition we benefitted from a consultant advising on pool recovery after COVID. |
We continue to take economy measures to reduce our costs wherever possible. We also increased our fees in advance of increasing energy costs. |
We are pleased that all the grants received and measures taken have led to our finances improving again over the last year - all this despite having to |
· restrict numbers of people using the pool; and |
· close the pool at various times during the day for additional cleaning. |
The grants plus economy measures put us in a strong position to cope with the large increases in gas and electricity costs we face in the next financial year. |
The Trustees consider that the charity has sufficient reserves and good prospects for the future. |
The local community continue to support us over the year both with donations and returning to the pool in large numbers. Our Monday Swim School is proving very popular with the addition of a new Friday Swim School. We have received several financial donations and we are very grateful for this and the continuing support of Brixham Swimming Club and all our volunteers. Thank you. |

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES |
for the Year Ended 30 June 2022 |
FINANCIAL REVIEW |
Reserves policy |
The Trustees consider it appropriate that the objective of the reserves policy is to protect the organisation against future events and that a level of reserves are held to protect the charity from closure should financial difficulties arise. |
The Trustees consider that the minimum reserve level is the minimum cash balance of the organisation available for 3 months of keeping the pool open at minimum running costs. The upper limit for reserves being for 12 months of minimum running costs: |
Minimum | Upper limit |
Salary Cost of two full time employees | £14,057 | £56,228 |
Minimum running costs (at 50%) | £9,751 | £39,004 |
Total reserve | £23,808 | £95,232 |
Running costs being: Cleaning & Hygiene, Insurance, chemicals, admin costs, rent and rates and all utilities. |
This year has seen no change to the method of the reserves calculation. |
The Trustees consider that in the unlikely event of the charity having to cease operations, the minimum cash and investment reserve together with the value of non-cash net assets would be sufficient to pay winding up liabilities. |
Should these reserves fall below this level, for whatever reason, immediate steps will be taken to reinstate them over a reasonable period. |
