CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

The chairwoman's statement for the year.

We started 2020 on a high after our centenary year culminated in a moving and joyful Carol Service at St Chad's in Shrewsbury. We were able to enjoy events more or less as normal through January and February, including some training sessions and our regular January lunches at Origins restaurant. Then we started to consider postponements as the news of the Coronavirus became more worrying. On 18th March 2021 we held an emergency board meeting and made arrangements for Nikki and Debbie, our office staff, to work from home as lockdown seemed inevitable.

The option for them to be furloughed was considered but rejected as we felt that we wanted to continue to provide members with as much administrative support as possible. Between them they arranged occasional visits to the office to check telephone messages and collect mail. This option also allowed us to continue produing a monthly newsletter which we considered to be a vital means of communication.

NFWI provided excellent support with regards to the legal implications of lockdown on the constitution and our charitable status. As well as routinely keeping in touch with WIs in their groups, our federation's WI Advisors took on the role of liason officer between NFWI and WIs. I whould like to thank them, and the presidents and secretaries they were contacting, for dealing with all the extra correspondence this entailed.

Virtual board meetingd have been held throughout lockdown and trustee Paula Pierce organised virtual events for members. We produced a new cookery book, "Lockdown Larder", with a cover photograph taken during the all-too-short period when small groups were allowed to meet. Sadly no large gatherings were permitted so our annual meeting could not take place at Theatre Severn but each WI received a copy of the Annual Review and the audited accounts for 2019. Diana Jones resigned from the board at the beginning of the year and I thank her for her support during her time as a trustee. We welcomed Josephine Bennet (Cressage WI) and Lynda Oldham (Sundorne WI) to the board in July. It has been my priviledge to act as SFWI Chairwoman and I should like to thank all the trustees, but especially my fellow officers, Bridget Thurgood, Glenys Wheeler, Dot Henderson, who stepped down as vice-chairwoman in June, and Margaret O'Neill, who was elected in her place, for their continuing support throughout a year of almost unprecidented events.

TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

The Trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the Charity for the 1 January 2020 to 31 December 2020. The annual report serves the purposes of both a Trustees' report and a directors' report under company law. The Trustees confirm that the annual report and financial statements of the charitable company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charitable company's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (update effective 1 January 2019) as amended by Update Bulletins 1 and 2.

Objectives and activities

a. Policies and objectives

In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance 'Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'.

The principle object of the Federation is to further the purpose of the Women's Institute movement in Shropshire and elsewhere as defined by the constitution.

b. Strategies for achieving objectives

In order to fulfil the objectives of the WI movement federation sub committees have organised events, workshops and training for the benefit of members.

Strategic report

Achievements and performance

a. Review of activities

Please refer to the Chairwoman's Statement on page 5.

Financial review

a. Going concern

After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

b. Reserves policy

Free reserves of the Federation stand at £163,499 (2019: £159,405), calculated as the unrestricted funds, less the designated funds and the tangible fixed assets.

The Trustees are aware of the level of reserves but feel these are reasonable in regard to fulfilling the objectives of the Federation as well as maintaining the county office, and believe that the reserves need to be at least equivalent to the normal annual expenditure.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

Independent examiner's report to the Trustees of The Shropshire County Federation of Womens Institutes ('the Charity')

I report to the charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 December 2020.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the Trustees of the Charity (and its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Charity are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of the Charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a 'true and fair' view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or

  4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities [applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)].

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

This report is made solely to the Charity's Trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the Charity's Trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an independent examiner's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charity and the Charity's Trustees as a body, for my work or for this report.

THE SHROPSHIRE COUNTY FEDERATION OF WOMENS INSTITUTES (A company limited by guarantee)

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

1. General information

The Shropshire Federation of Women's Institutes is a charitable company, constituted under a Memorandum of Association dated 29 November 1994 and incorpoarated in England and Wales. It is a registered charity, number 1042705.

2. Accounting policies

2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - 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) (update effective 1 January 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

The Shropshire County Federation of Womens Institutes meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.

2.2 Income

All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.

Grants are included in the statement of financial activities on a receivable basis. The balance of income received for specific purposes but not expended during the period is shown in the relevant funds on the balance sheet. Where income is received in advance of entitlement of receipt, its recognition is deferred and included in creditors as deferred income. Where entitlement occurs before income is received, the income is accrued.

Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable.

2.3 Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

Expenditure on raising funds includes all expenditure incurred by the Charity to raise funds for its charitable purposes and includes costs of all fundraising activities events and non-charitable trading.

Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Charity's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.

Page 11

THE SHROPSHIRE COUNTY FEDERATION OF WOMENS INSTITUTES (A company limited by guarantee)

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

2. Accounting policies (continued)

2.3 Expenditure (continued)

Grants payable are charged in the year when the offer is made except in those cases where the offer is conditional, such grants being recognised as expenditure when the conditions attaching are fulfilled. Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end are noted as a commitment, but not accrued as expenditure.

All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.

2.4 Interest receivable

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the Charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the institution with whom the funds are deposited.

2.5 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Tangible fixed assets of capital nature are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.

Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method.

Depreciation is provided on the following basis:

Long-term leasehold property - 2% straight line
Fixtures and fittings - 10% straight line
Computer equipment - 20% straight line

2.6 Stocks

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slow-moving stocks. Cost includes all direct costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.

2.7 Debtors

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

2.8 Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short-term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

THE SHROPSHIRE COUNTY FEDERATION OF WOMENS INSTITUTES (A company limited by guarantee)

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020

2. Accounting policies (continued)

2.9 Liabilities

Liabilities and provisions are recognised when there is an obligation at the balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.

Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.

Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised in the statement of financial activities as a finance cost.

2.10 Financial instruments

The Charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

2.11 Pensions

Employees of the charity are members of a multi-employer scheme where it is not possible in the normal courses of events to identify the share of underlying assets and liabilities belonging to the individual employers. Therefore, as required by FRS102, the charitable company accounts for this scheme as if it were a defined contribution scheme.The pension charge represents the amounts payable by the charitable company to the fund in respect of the year. The pension scheme is in deficit and the charitable company is making additional deficit payments. Under the SORP a provision is required, based on these deficit payments.

2.12 Funds

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.

Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the Trustees for particular purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Charity for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.

DESIGNATED FUNDS

Rainy day fund

To be used, at the discretion of the Executive Committee, for helping institutes who are in trouble financially.

NFWI Raffle

A raffle is held each year and it is at the discretion of the trustees how to spend the net proceeds. An adjustment has been made in the expenditure figure above to better reflect the carried forward position of the fund, which represents the bursaries which are to be paid from the proceeds of the raffle.

Office fund

This fund represented the cash proceeds from the sale of the prior in 2013 which was designated for the purchase of the new office premises in 2014. During the year a balance was transfered into unrestricted funds to cover the cost of the additions to the property during the year, and the balance is being held to cover future capital additions.

Denman bedroom fund

Represents additional monies set aside by the trustees to sponsor a bedroom at Denman. The fund can be used to pay for the furnishing, repairs and maintenance of the bedroom.

RESTRICTED FUNDS

Denman bedroom fund

Represents monies collected to sponsor a bedroom at Denman. The fund can be used to pay for the furnishing, repairs and maintenance of the bedroom.

Denman travel fund

Can be used to pay travelling expenses of the members attending Denman.

County bursary fund

Can be used to pay towards training courses of members of the Shropshire County Federation of Women's Institutes.

Suspended institutes fund

Represents monies held on behalf of institutes which have been suspended. After three years, if the institute is not reinstated, any monies received will be transferred to unrestricted funds.

Ethel Broadhurst memorial fund

To be used to give an annual prize to the institute preparing the best press report during the year.

20. Pension commitments

The employees are members of the TPT Retirement Solutions Scheme. This is a multi-employer benefit scheme. It is not possible for the charitable company to identify its share of the current assets and liabilities of the scheme and therefore it is treated as a defined contribution scheme.

The assets of the scheme are held seperately from those of the charitable company in independently administered funds. The pension cost charge represents contributions payable by the charitable company to the fund, after adjusting for the movement on the provision noted below, and amounted to £1,248 (2019: £1,104).

The scheme is in deficit and the charitable company has agreed a deficit funding agreement and therefore a liability for this obligation has been accounted for.

21. Related party transactions

There were one related party transactions during the year. A family member of a trustee was awarded a grant to the value of £250, which has not yet been paid out and is treated as an accrual in the accounts.
