## **TRUSTEES REPORT** 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021** 

The Trustees present their report and the unaudited financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31[st] December 2021. 

Reference and administrative information set out on page 2 forms part of this report. 

## **Structure, governance and management** 

The charity is constituted as a company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 12th October 1995, registered under the Companies Acts (registration number 03112751) and its governing document is a Memorandum and Articles of Association. It was granted charitable status by the Charity Commission under number 1050202. 

By operation of law all trustees are directors under the Companies Act 2006 and all directors are trustees under Charities legislation and have responsibilities, as such, under both company and charity legislation. 

New trustees are recruited with a mixture of advertising for specific roles or attributes and responding to unsolicited offers. The organisation has a clearly documented standard process prior to appointment which incorporates recommended good practice for safer recruitment. The process includes an expression of interest, informal one-to-one meeting with an existing trustee, followed by a written application on a standard application form; a requirement to attend a minimum number of trustee meetings as an observer; and taking up two references and a DBS check. After that a decision is taken by the Chair and one other trustee whether or not to recommend the applicant for approval by the Board. If the applicant is approved, they will be appointed as a co-opted trustee until the next AGM, when their appointment will be subject to election by members. 

Since 14th September 2021, the farm has been managed by the Farm Director, Brendan Tate Wistreich. Before that it was led by Helen Fisher. The Farm Director is supported by a Programmes Manager (Adults), Programmes Manager (Children and Youth), People and Office Manager, Site and Facilities Manager and Café Manager. 

- The Board of Trustees have the following sub committees – - Health and Safety sub group 

- Finance sub group 

- - Staffing sub group 

- Safeguarding sub group 

The Board of Trustees agree an annual Budget, which then authorises the Farm Director to make spending and employment commitments that are provided for within the budget, without further reference to the Trustees. 

New trustees are paired with an existing trustee and are required to read the following documents – Child Protection and Safeguarding Vulnerable Adults, Safeguarding Behaviour Code, Equality and Diversity, Respect and Personal Dignity and Health and Safety. 

Bath City Farm’s Job Ranking and Benchmarking Scheme, introduced in 2019, has as one of its aims: as far as the Farm’s resources allow, to pay staff a rate for their work which matches as closely as possible rates for comparable skills and responsibilities in similar third sector organisations. In practice, this is done for each post by identifying at least three comparable

roles in other similar charities (ideally in the West of England) and using those to assess a “market rate”. All Pay Bands were reassessed in December 2021. 

Organisations providing support services to the Farm include – HSBC, 41 Southgate, Bath BA1 1TN  - Banking services Bristol Community Accountants CIC, Daventry Road, Bristol BS4 1DQ - Accounting services 

## **Objectives and activities of the charity** 

Bath City Farm is a community hub and green oasis in the heart of Twerton. An area of multiple disadvantage and high-density social housing in the South of Bath, far removed from the Georgian splendour Bath is renowned for. From the beginning our vision has been to build a healthy community rooted in nature, food, farming and each other. As a welcoming urban farm, we use our unique setting and targeted projects to educate, improve wellbeing and transform lives. 

Bath City Farm exists to: 

- Support disadvantaged and disabled people to develop new skills and confidence 

- Boost emotional, mental, physical and social well-being 

- Inspire environmental awareness and activity 

- Grow the number of people engaging in their community 

- Bring enjoyment to the public 

- Educate people on farming and where their food comes from 

Starting life in the early 1990’s, the farm has grown in response to demand and now supports over 800 people a year through a range of projects in horticulture, animal care, catering, retail and hospitality, conservation and land management. Aimed at supporting adults with complex health and social needs and young people facing adversity, these projects grow confidence, social networks and teach new skills. We also maintain our site as a free community resource and welcomed 40,000 visitors to our site for recreation and education pre-Covid. The farm also has extensive facilities, including a training kitchen, meeting room, outdoor amphitheater, community allotments, and 37 acres of green space. We play a vital role for other local charities, education providers and organisations who benefit from using this unique outdoor space. 

With over 25 years of experience in delivering projects for children, young people and adults we have developed generational connections with many local families and individuals and strive to offer care holistically, whether individual needs are practical, emotional or social. 

## **Public benefit** 

In shaping the objectives for the year and planning activities, the trustees have considered the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit, including the guidance 'public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'. 

## **Main activities to further Bath City Farm’s purpose for public benefit** 

We continued to run regular weekly sessions for adults, young people and families throughout the whole of B&NES but with a particular focus on our local community of Twerton and

**BATH CITY FARM** 

## **TRUSTEES REPORT** 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021** 

Whiteway. Our social impact programmes support a range of different child, family and adult groups, each facing their own challenges. 

The farm delivers 10 different farm-based projects under two separate programmes which are: Roots to Health - Supporting adults with complex health and social needs. Branching Out - Improving lives for children, young people and families facing adversity. 

Each project is focussed around a different user group or activity such as horticulture, catering, animal care, conservation and crafting. We work closely with individuals, who each have a designated project coordinator, to encourage personal development and provide structured activity to suit their needs. We also offer supported training and progression opportunities when people are ready to take that next step. 

Our major focus is supporting people with mental health conditions often experiencing other complex issues such as substance misuse, domestic abuse, relationship difficulties, unemployment and homelessness. We aim to give people the support they need to achieve a sustained recovery and to rebuild their lives after a crisis or long-term period of mental illness. We support people to thrive in their everyday lives and discover the tools and confidence to fulfil their potential, better manage their mental health, contribute to community development and improve their quality of life. We provide non-medical psychiatric care within strongly evidence-based community mental health activities. This is in line with our local NHS strategy to reduce dependency on medication and to reduce the length of, and at times completely avoid, psychiatric hospitalisation. 

We also deliver specialist work development placements for people with a learning disability and educational courses and activities for young people and families facing adversity. 

As a Community Hub, we enable marginalised groups to connect with each other and have countless interactions that improve well-being and community cohesion.

**BATH CITY FARM** 

## **TRUSTEES REPORT** 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021** 

## **Main achievements and performance** 

We started the year of 2021 in another lockdown as the threat from Covid-19 was ever present. For the second time in our history the farm had to close it gates to the public and rely on a skeleton staff team to look after the site. This time however, the importance of maintaining people’s mental health was fully recognised and we made every effort to continue our therapeutic projects, where possible. As our projects are largely based outdoors, the threat from Covid-19 was reduced significantly, this meant that between Jan - April 2021 the mental health programmes continued to run whilst the site remained closed to the public. 

The farm re-opened its gates to the public in April, welcoming large numbers of visitors and experiencing a sharp increase in demand for our targeted projects. We were finally able to make progress on many site developments, delayed during lockdown, and restart work on key organisational goals. 

Our two main areas of focus in 2021 have been supporting people with severe and enduring mental health issues and young people experiencing adverse life circumstances, whilst they have been facing significant and unprecedented challenges throughout the pandemic. 

## _Adult Programmes_ 

The stability and continuity of our groups gave us an important role in being able to monitor the mental health of our participants throughout the course of the pandemic. As we were the only regular in-person contact for half of them we were uniquely placed to monitor their wellbeing and flag any deterioration to the relevant services. A lack of in-person support from mental health teams and GP surgeries meant our group could often be the main source of mental health support and general advice for the majority of the people that attended our groups. This was both labour intensive as we sought to find available services that could help, and emotionally intensive as staff had to provide wellbeing advice, companionship and generally provide stability and continuity in an ever-changing variety of circumstances. 

We feel grateful that the nature of our site and diverse staff team enabled us to rapidly adapt our services to the needs of our beneficiaries, whilst maintaining a Covid-safe environment. Throughout this period staff dealt with anxieties around the pandemic and supported people through profound and damaging social isolation. Sometimes we would be the only people to get in touch with that person in the week or to ask them how they are. Many participants have felt that the isolation of the pandemic has had a significantly damaging effect on their mental health. During lockdown 15 participants who were shielding or not able to attend, were supported remotely with regular phone calls, meals and the delivery of gardening ‘homework’ that entailed propagating plants for the farm to plant upon their return – this provided a vital connection to the participants’ former active role at the farm. 

## _Youth Work_ 

This year focused on a measured reintroduction of our projects which support children and young people facing adversity. This included our weekly afterschool club (‘Farm Club’) for ages 5-11 and youth volunteering (‘Farm Hands’) for ages 11-16. Support for emotional distress and social interactions was at the forefront of our work, and animal care was a means to facilitate many important conversations around children and young people’s wellbeing, along with setting expectations of acceptable behaviour towards others.

## **BATH CITY FARM** 

## **TRUSTEES REPORT** 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021** 

Following a year of extreme disruption to the routine of school, shortage of other services with supportive adults, alongside spending an increased amount of time inside and away from their peers, children and young people had experienced a higher level of stress than usual, in addition to difficulties that the majority of them were facing already. During the height of the pandemic our Youth Support Worker kept in regular contact with young people and children to update them about the farm and remind them how much we value them. In some cases we became the only service that young people were engaging with due to being unable to access online learning due to a lack of equipment or because additional learning needs made this challenging. Returning to groups solidified this connection with the farm, such as being able to finally meet some of the animals that had been born over the lockdown period or seeing where seeds they had planted had grown. This helped them to give a timeframe to what they had been through which was important for processing the impact of the pandemic. 

We were also able to restart our AQA project for NEETs (a young person who is no longer in the education system and who is not working or being trained for work) offering tailored unit awards for those local to the farm in animal care, gardening and practical skills. This was in partnership with Youth Connect and offered a sense of progression and hope for the future, engaging a very hard to reach group of young adults. 

For some children and young people, returning to groups was gradual and took time to become consistent, particularly from March-September. From September onwards we were supporting 9 children in Farm Club (5-11) and 10 young people in Farm Hands (11-16) consistently, along with some with more sporadic attendance. Our AQA project ran for 5 young people over 6 weeks. Of these, 2 are now pursuing formal qualifications in animal care. 

A hugely positive step in 2021 was receiving funding to build a wooden roundhouse on site to be an area dedicated to our work with children and young people. Young people were able to take part in the construction of the shelter which is accessible to young people at all times, including non-project hours. 

## **Organisational developments** 

## **New 3-year Strategic Plan 2022 - 2024** 

Trustees, staff and volunteers came together over a series of three workshops funded by Lloyds Bank Foundation, to develop a strategy that plots out the next exciting chapter in the farm’s development. Using the new site facilities and our place in the community as a starting point, we developed 6 aims focusing on the farm as a centre for wellbeing; education and lifelong learning; environmental management and sustainability; food production; the farm as a visitor destination; and building networks of supporters and partners. 

## **Organisational Restructure** 

We strengthened and invested in the staff team, restructuring at a strategic level with the appointment of a new Farm Director to lead the organisation and the previous General Manager moving to a new Adult Programmes Manager role to oversee the Health and Social Care projects. The new organisational structure will ensure key developments and the resulting increase in visitors and project beneficiaries are well managed and the site is a safe and welcoming environment for all.

## **YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021** 

We recognise the importance of having a well-motivated and cohesive staff team and are very proud of the fantastic skilled team we have. We have invested in our staff training and wellbeing through introducing a new Employee Assistance Programme service and running an increased number of training courses including: Health and Safety, Risk Assessment, COSSH, Safeguarding Adults, First Aid and Boundaries training. 

## **Site Developments** 

2021 saw the farm break ground on the build of 2 new structures to improve community facilities. 

## _New Indoor Community Café_ 

This project was completed on budget and opened in May. This major development has had a huge impact on the operations of the farm, increasing visitor numbers, self-generated income and employment and volunteering opportunities. 

## _Roundhouse_ 

This structure was completed during the Easter Holidays 2022 and has become a focal point and safe space for young people in our Youth and Families Garden area. The Roundhouse which can seat up to 30 children will be used for school visits, our targeted youth projects and made available for other community projects to enjoy the farm’s unique setting. 

Other notable site improvements include: 

- Large Wildlife Pond restoration 

- New pig pens 

- Improved access to the crater stage 

## **Partnerships** 

We continue to lead on the Twerton and Whiteway Community Network, a collective of organisations and residents based and working in the area for the benefit of local people. We were successful in securing funding to commission a Community Facilitator to build resident involvement through facilitated community meetings and stakeholder consultation. Over 60 residents attended 2 meetings in November 2021 and fed into the next stage of the process. We are currently seeking funding to employ a Network Coordinator to take the work forward and develop a Neighbourhood Plan for Twerton with residents. 

We continue to partner with a range of other providers who complement our services such as Youth Connect Southwest, Bath Welcomes Refugees, Youth Offending Service, Bathscape and Avon Wildlife Trust. 

## _**Difference made to beneficiaries**_ 

Our work with people of all ages with multiple and complex needs continues to be a core area of our provision. For the period covered we supported: 

__________________________________________________________________________________________ 

**- 8 -** 



**BATH CITY FARM** 

## **TRUSTEES REPORT** 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021** 

- 97 people with a mental health diagnosis attending our Grow it Programme to support their recovery. 

- 25 people who have a learning disability attending one of our 2 work and personal development projects. 

- 74 vulnerable young people 5-16yrs attending one of our 3 environmental youth projects. 

- 18 people attending our Families at the Farm programme for families facing adversity through domestic abuse. 

- 148 attending educational courses, visits and therapeutic workshops. 

- 2500 attending free community events in the arts, heritage and environment. 

We also had 25,000 visitors connecting to nature, food and farming and using our site for recreation. An estimated further 350 people benefited from other organisations using the site for their own projects.  The numbers overall represent a slight increase on 2020 reflecting a positive start to the recovery from the impacts of Covid. 

By getting people active and talking, our projects improve participant’s mental and general wellbeing. 92% of all the farm’s adult social impact project beneficiaries report an improvement in their mental health, and 87% feel more confident after attending. Other beneficiary outcomes include a reduction in their use of medication, relapses and reliance on NHS support; feeling more in control and better able to cope; and better able to look after themselves at home through cooking and crafting skills. 

For people like Imogen, the farm is something she pins her week on to keep her well: 

_“I’ve had bulimia for 6 years now and while I’m waiting to get professional support, I’m using the animals here to make me happy. They help me say to myself, ‘it doesn’t matter how much you weigh.’ They don’t judge me for my appearance, and they listen. If I’m being triggered because of past traumas, I’ll go in with the goats, they come up to me and I feel so much better. I feel they can pick up on your mood and being around them helps me cope with my struggles. Coming here also keeps me occupied. If I’m at home feeling sad I’m likely to binge and purge all day._ 

_When I’m here I feel a purpose. On a bad day, I feel ‘is there a reason to still be alive?’ When I’m here on a Wednesday helping other people and the animals, I say to myself, ‘this is why you are still alive’.”_ 

A quote from a children and youth programme participant: 

_“The ponies are my favourite, even when they’re grumpy. I sometimes get so angry too so I know how it feels. I talk to the ponies and say nice things to help them feel calm. I’m trying to be nice to myself like I am nice to the ponies. It’s good for them so it’s good for me. It’s like we talk the same language.”_ - Lexi, 15, Farm Hands Youth Volunteer. 

## **Financial Review** 

We were delighted to secure long-term funding for our Children, Youth and Families Programme in August 2021 through a Children in Need Main Grant. This allows us to continue 

__________________________________________________________________________________________ 

**- 9 -** 



**BATH CITY FARM** 

## **TRUSTEES REPORT** 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021** 

and build on our work with marginalised local young people and help engage them in the journey of the farm. 

We also received substantial grants from the Quartet Community Fund through three separate grant programmes. They include the Emerging Needs Fund, Catalyst grant and Resilience Fund. In addition to these we also received support from: 

- The Blue Surf Trust, The Four Acre Trust and National Lottery Awards for all contributed substantially to our Children and Young Peoples programme. 

- Grants for core services were received from The Medlock Charitable Foundation, The Roper Family Charitable Trust and the Cobalt Trust. 

- Lloyds Bank Foundation and Avon and Wiltshire Mental Health Partnership continued to support our mental health programme. 

- Enovert Community Trust took us over the line for the new café. 

- Bath Youth for Christ towards our Roundhouse. 

- Substantial corporate donations were received including from Royal London Asset Management. 

Our trading income has still been substantially affected by the pandemic and is yet to reach pre-covid levels, 14% in 2020 and 26% in 2021 compared to 41% in 2019. The new café will be a key part of the development of social enterprise activity to complement the grant funded work at the farm. Generating an increase in trading income is a key priority in our 2022-24 strategy. 

The farm ended the year with total funds of £508,036 due to funds raised for the new café. However unrestricted reserves are a modest £213,383 at the end of 2021, after taking account of future asset depreciation and redundancy reserve. This  equates to 7 months running costs. 

Restricted funds total £403,186 at 31st December 2021. 

## **Policy on Reserves** 

The Trustees have adopted a written policy on Reserves and Investments and aim to retain at least 6 months running costs held as Free/Unrestricted Reserves. Our monthly average running costs in 2021 were  £30,000. 

The Trustees continue to keep the charity’s risks under review, particularly with regard to any major risks from time to time. 

The Farm is a low energy user, as in 2021 we used less than 40,000 kWh. **Responsibilities of the Trustees** 

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to

ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. The Trustee is also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

The above report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions applicable to companies subject to the small companies regime as set out in Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 and in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102).

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021** 

## **1 Accounting Policies** 

## **Basis of preparation** 

These accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant note(s) to these accounts. 

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

The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. 

The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. 

## **Change in basis of accounting or to previous accounts** 

There has been no change to the accounting policies (valuation rules and method of accounting) since last year and no changes have been made to accounts for previous years. 

## **Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds 

Designated funds 

Restricted funds 

These are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objects of the charity. 

These are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for particular purposes. 

These are available for use subject to restrictions imposed by the donor or through terms of an appeal. 

## **Income** 

Recognition of income 

Income with related expenditure Donations and legacies 

Tax reclaims on donations and gifts Donated services and facilities 

Volunteer help Investment income Gains/(losses) on revaluation of fixed assets Gains/(losses) on investment assets 

Income is included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when the charity becomes entitled to, and virtually certain to receive, the income and the amount of the income can be measured with sufficient reliability. 

Where income has related expenditure the income and related expenditure is reported gross in the SoFA. 

Voluntary income received by way of grants, donations and gifts is included in the SoFA when receivable and only when the Charity has unconditional entitlement to the income. 

Income from tax reclaims is included in the SoFA at the same time as the gift/donation to which it relates. 

These are only included in income (with an equivalent amount in expenditure) where the benefit to the Charity is reasonably quantifiable, measurable and material. 

The value of any volunteer help received is not included in the accounts. 

This is included in the accounts when receivable. 

This includes any gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the year. 

This includes any gain or loss on the sale of investments.

## **BATH CITY FARM** 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021** 

## **Expenditure** 

Recognition of expenditure Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered, and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates. 

Expenditure on raising funds These comprise the costs associated with attracting voluntary income, fundraising trading costs and investment management costs. Expenditure on charitable activities These comprise the costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services in the furtherance of its objects, including the making of grants and governance costs. Grants payable All grant expenditure is accounted for on an actual paid basis plus an accrual for grants that have been approved by the trustees at the end of the year but not yet paid. Governance costs These include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the Charity, including any audit/independent examination fees, costs linked to the strategic management of the charity, together with a share of other administration costs. Other expenditure These are support costs not allocated to a particular activity. 

## **Taxation** 

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities. 

## **Tangible fixed assets and depreciation** 

Tangible fixed assets are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment losses. 

Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an asset, less its estimated residual value, over the useful economic 

|Fixtures and Fittings|10|% straight line|
|---|---|---|
|Office Equipment|33|% straight line|
|Plant and Equipment|20|% straight line|
|Site Structures|20|% reducing balance|



## **Livestock** 

Livestock is included at the lower of cost or net realisable value. 

## **Trade and other debtors** 

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

## **Cash and cash equivalents** 

Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and on hand, demand deposits with banks and other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and bank overdrafts. In the statement of financial position, bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings or current liabilities. 

## **Trade and other creditors** 

Short term creditors are measured at the transaction price. Other creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. 

## **Pension costs** 

The charity operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the company has no further payments obligations. The contributions are recognised as expenses when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals in the balance sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the company in independently administered funds.
