## **TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2021 (continued)** 

## **Structure, Governance and Management** 

The Trust is constituted as a company and the governing document is the company's Memorandum and Articles of Association. 

Overall responsibility lies with the council of management, which determines strategy and policies and takes major decisions.  Day to day management is delegated to the Town Mill Staff team. 

Trustees are usually selected on personal recommendation; no new trustees were appointed during the year. There is no maximum term for how long someone may remain a trustee, although one third of trustees must retire by rotation every year but are eligible for re-election.  The latter is done by a majority vote at the AGM. 

Each new trustee is provided with information about the Trust including a copy of the company’s Memorandum and Articles, a copy of the Charity Commissioners booklet on trustees’ responsibilities and a copy of the most recent company accounts. Companies House also send all new company directors a copy of their booklet of directors’ responsibilities. New trustees receive induction training from the Chair of the Trust.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2021 (continued)** 

## **Achievements and performance** 

The COVID-19 world pandemic originally declared in February 2020 continued to have a severe impact on The Town Mill Trust throughout the accounting period. A second national lockdown commenced 5/11/20 for 4 weeks with a third national lockdown starting 06/01/2021 with non-essential retail being given the green light to re-open from 12/4/21. These restrictions inhibited trading at the mill and its galleries significantly as well as the public facing activities of the tenants. The Trust’s previous financial performance and its ability to access support has resulted in The Trust continuing to weather the pandemic throughout 2021, however, there has been a significant reduction in income streams from mill-related activities, most notably,  flour & shop sales, donations and mill tours. 

The Trustees ratified its “Vision and 5-year Business Plan” in July 2021 after undertaking external consultancy to guide options for both site development and developing the arts. Simon Williams of Future Footprints produced “Developing Our Spaces” and Cleo Evans “Developing the Arts at The Town Mill”. At its core, retaining operational viability will be key to driving forward the ambitious plans for taking The Town Mill to the next stage in its development. 

Whilst the mill environment remained challenging, opportunity presented itself in the quiet periods with the development of a “Grain to Loaf” exhibition at the mill along with the successful restoration of a Winnower – an early mechanisation to separate wheat from chaff – on the Mill’s Stone Floor. 

Historically, the renewable and assignable lease of The Courtyard Café had been a significant barrier to expanding the Café and enhancing the mill site overall. To dissolve the lease, The Town Mill purchased the Café lease from the outgoing tenant in April 2021. The Trust subsequently granted a short-term lease to a new tenant for the existing café footprint until 31 Dec 2021, with a second 10-year lease to run from 1 Jan 2022 for a bigger footprint, which included both the existing café and the adjoining space - The Courtyard Gallery. 

A second-floor space - The Bakehouse Attic – which previously had only sporadic use, was let to a full-time tenant to make use of the area and contribute more effectively to the mill’s stable income streams. We welcomed the new tenant to this space in June 2021. 

Additionally, modifications were undertaken to the former artists’ studio on first floor of The Bakehouse to provide a multifunctional room that can be used for workshops, temporary exhibitions, meetings, courses, short term bookings or other uses. 

The tenants within the mill complex remain an important part of the Trust. The Tenants consist of a pottery, a microbrewery, a seamstress, a silversmith, seaweed art, graphic design, counselling and architectural design and pilates studio.  Despite the difficulties of the COVID-19 pandemic, tenants remain positive about their future at The Town Mill. 

2021 saw a change in how art is managed at the mill, with the dissolution of The Town Mill Arts Lyme Regis Ltd in June 2021 and the transfer of management of the arts spaces at the mill back to the Trust Board who in turn, delegated arts management to an employed Arts Manager. The appetite for Art space at The Town Mill remained very strong in 2021 with high demand for gallery space, good revenue streams plus positive feedback from artists and visitors about the art offering. 

Volunteers are at the heart of the operation, supporting day to day running and specific projects across all aspects of The Town Mill Trust’s activities. The Town Mill understands the particular challenges the pandemic has created for a high number of our volunteer community because of their demographic and remains extremely grateful for their dedication and on-going support. 

The mill consists of 3 employees totalling 2.45 FTE : Finance and Operations Coordinator, Site Manager and a Visitor Experience and Volunteer Leader /Arts Manager. There were no redundancies. In August 2021, a new Finance and Operations Coordinator was appointment after the resignation of the incumbent F&OC.

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 OCTOBER 2021 (continued)** 

## **Financial Review** 

The overall result for the year (net incoming resources before transfers) was a deficit of £44,557, compared with a surplus of £23,693 in 2020. 

The deficit on unrestricted funds (which represent the day-to-day operations of the Town Mill site) was £40,005 compared with a surplus of £28,345 in 2020. 

The bank balance at the year end was £90,500 compared with £129,225 in 2020. 

## **Reserves and reserves policy** 

The Trust is responsible for the maintenance of the Town Mill and Malthouse sites, consisting of buildings and equipment with a replacement cost of over £3 million. We consider it prudent to establish and maintain reserves of about £50,000 for repairs and renewals which may be necessary. Although The Trust were able to access financial support during the COVID-19 pandemic, this level of reserves would have provided a degree of continuity, should the support not have been available. 

## **Plans for future periods** 

The trustees continue to consider ways of developing and enhancing the Town Mill site, as well as maintaining the medieval buildings. Specifically, our 5-year plan specifies the following ambitions: 

* Install a welcome porch at the entrance to the Front of House. 

* Modifications to be made to garden to facilitate extra space for seating and events. 

- Works within the café to provide dedicated toilet. 

* Works within the café to separate café from floor above, replacing mezzanine by installing new ceiling. These works to be done by the Trust in collaboration with the new café tenant. 

* Explore possibility of providing a new stepped entrance from the leat into the garden and courtyard, and providing secluded storage for bins. 

* Seek to install a canopy or covered area in the vicinity of the garden and courtyard to provide shelter from rain and sun. 

- Cosmetic improvements to site, including cleaning and essential painting. 

- Replacement of defective or unattractive railings. 

* Resurfacing Mill Lane to provide an improved surface in keeping with the mill character; to be undertaken by Highways England, in consultation with the Mill at no cost. 

- Interpretative exhibits to be installed in the outside areas of the site. 

The above report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions in Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES** 

I report on the accounts of the company for the year ended 31 October 2021 which are set out on pages 6 to 13. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of the Association of Chartered Certifieds Accountants. 

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to an audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to: 

examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act; 

follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act, as amended); and 

state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner's report** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commision. 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 no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair' view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below 

## **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 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and 

to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of Sections 394 and 395 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the 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) 

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.

Income from charitable activities is recognised when earned, and grant income when any associated conditions have been satisfied. 

## **(f)** 

## **Expenditure** 

Expenditure is recognised when a liability is incurred. Costs of generating funds are those incurred in attracting voluntary income.

Trade debtors and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discounts offered.  Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. 

## **(i) Creditors**

The Mill Fund comprises the Mill Buildings, which have restrictions on their use as detailed in note 7 below. 

The Garden Fund consists of assets, income and expenditure related specifically to the Miller's garden. 

The Malthouse,Town Mill Path and Leat Restoration are funded with grant monies, donations and certain income which may only be used for these projects and the assets are therefore kept separate.

## **11. Contingent liabilities** 

The mill buildings would revert to West Dorset District Council for no consideration if certain covenants regarding their use are not complied with, or if the Trust attempted to sell them before the year 2075. These buildings are therefore held separately within the Mill fund. Lottery grants received for the restoration of the buildings of £240,000 would become repayable if the buildings were sold or were used for purposes not approved of by the National Lottery.
