Moray Inshore Rescue Organisation (Registered number: SC307007)

Report of the Trustees

for the Year Ended 31 March 2025

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, 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

The Objectives and activities for the year under review were:

1 The protection of an Inshore Rescue facility to save life, in the inland and coastal waters around Findhorn Bay up to three miles offshore, from Burghead in the East to Nairn in the West.

2 To support Coastguard and RNLI operations.

To meet these objectives the organisation operates a Humber Ocean Pro rib powered by twin outboard engines for use in the bay and up to three miles offshore and a smaller 4m boat for use within Findhorn Bay from their base at Findhorn Marina. The vessel is crewed by a volunteer team and is on call 365 days a year.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

MIRO has maintained a 24hour capability throughout the year and continues to respond to call outs from HMC Aberdeen.

Crew numbers remain at a suitable level. Support of the public, business, organisations and individuals has allowed MIRO to continue operations throughout the year and some larger donations during the year means the financial stability of MIRO is secure.

Our donation tins are dispersed in the area and regularly collected by a new member of the team.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Financial position

After the higher costs of the last financial year, the fundraising and support gained this year means income is above expenditure.

We are linked with the Charities Aid Foundation for on-line donations. QR codes are used on notices and posters for donations to be made directly to MIRO

Reserves policy

There are adequate funds to maintain operations at the current level and cover any emergency costs such as engine breakdowns which can be very expensive. MIRO has an ongoing programme for fundraising including the annual Burns Supper which has ongoing support.

FUTURE PLANS

MIRO is undertaking a project to relocate the changing and storage accommodation and office, on ground which we hope to lease from the Findhorn Conservation Company and Royal Findhorn Yacht Club. The boat will continue to operate from Findhorn Marina, maintaining a 365 day 24/7 service. Fundraising and donations continue to enable us to continually update crew equipment and provide advanced training but further grant applications and fundraising will be needed to facilitate the new base.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing document

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of

Moray Inshore Rescue Organisation

I report on the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2025 set out on pages four to eleven.

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.
