    Other accounting policies

    Going concern The company incurred a deficit of £20,925 during the period and had net liabilities of £20,925 at 30 June 2026. The company is dependent upon the continuing financial support of a director. The director has confirmed that she intends to continue providing such financial support and will not seek repayment of amounts due until the company has sufficient funds. The directors therefore consider it appropriate to prepare the accounts on the going concern basis. Creditors Short term creditors are measured at transaction price (which is usually the invoice price). Loans and other financial liabilities are initially recognised at transaction price net of any transaction costs and subsequently measured at amortised cost determined using the effective interest method. Taxation A current tax liability is recognised for the tax payable on the taxable profit of the current and past periods. A current tax asset is recognised in respect of a tax loss that can be carried back to recover tax paid in a previous period. Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences between the recognition of income and expenses in the financial statements and their inclusion in tax assessments. Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable surpluses. Deferred tax is measured using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the reporting date and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference, except for revalued land and investment property where the tax rate that applies to the sale of the asset is used. Current and deferred tax assets and liabilities are not discounted.

COMMUNITY INTEREST ANNUAL REPORT

MATCH OF THE DAMES CIC

Company Number: 16543733 (England and Wales)

Year Ending: 30 June 2026

Company activities and impact

During the period, the company began delivering community activities intended to promote social inclusion, wellbeing and community cohesion by enabling women to experience football in a safe, enjoyable and community-focused setting. Women met before Altrincham Football Club matches for food and refreshments, attended matches together and received scarves and further refreshments as part of the experience. The activities were provided without charge to participants and were funded by amounts advanced by a director. The company’s activities benefited the community in the following ways: 1) women, including those who may not previously have attended football matches, were able to take part in a welcoming group activity; 2) participants were given opportunities to build social connections and a sense of community around a shared interest; 3) practical and financial barriers to attending football were reduced through the provision of tickets, organised meeting arrangements, scarves and refreshments; and 4) the activities encouraged greater engagement by women with local football in a safe and inclusive environment. Any future surplus will be retained and applied to further the company’s community purposes.

Consultation with stakeholders

The company’s stakeholders include women who take part in its activities, local football clubs, community partners and organisations that support the company’s work. During the period there was no formal stakeholder consultation held. The directors organised the activities and had direct informal contact with participants, providing opportunities for comments about their experience. No specific changes arose from a formal consultation during the period. The company intends to take account of feedback from participants and partner organisations when planning the type, location and format of future activities.
