Transparency
Our relationship with TFT MMA
In short
Working together, accounted for separately
TFT MMA is a combat sports gym. TFT Youth is a community organisation that helps young people who face financial or social barriers to take part in sport.
We work with TFT MMA because it can provide a safe, equipped space and experienced coaching. But the two are separate organisations, and the arrangements between them are written down, fairly priced and openly declared.
How it works
Six things to know
TFT MMA is our delivery partner
TFT MMA can provide the premises, equipment and coaching that our programmes need, so young people can train in a well-equipped, established setting.
We are a separate organisation
TFT Youth & Athlete Development CIC is a separate organisation from TFT MMA. It has its own finances, its own records and its own governance.
An interest we declare openly
Our founding director, Andrew Mark Fisher, has an ownership interest in TFT MMA. We are open about this so everyone can see how decisions are made.
Written agreements at fair value
Services provided by TFT MMA will be covered by written agreements. Any charges will be reasonable and represent fair value for what is provided.
Conflicts of interest are managed
Any director with a financial interest in a decision will declare that interest. They will not vote on that decision and will not count towards the quorum for it.
Resources serve the community
The CIC’s resources, and any surplus it makes, will be used to support its community objectives: helping young people and amateur athletes overcome barriers to sport.
