Minutes:

The Leader presented the Annual Financial Report and Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2022 and the independent examiners report which had been circulated separately.

 

The purpose of the meeting was for the council, acting as sole Trustee for the Shottermill Recreation Ground Trust, to approve the Annual Financial Report and Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2022. The Trust owned the Haslemere Leisure Centre which was operated through Waverley's management contract with Places Leisure. In December 2011, the Trust approved a delegation to the Executive to make all decisions on behalf of the Trustee Board with the exception of the approval of the annual report and financial statement as this was a requirement of the Charity Commission that this is approved by the Council acting as Trustee. 

 

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the charities Code of Practice and have been externally examined by Azets Audit Services Limited. The reserves level were healthy and there were no specific matters to report to the Trustee.

 

RESOLVED that the Annual Financial Report and Accounts for the year ending 31 March 2022, be approved.
