Driffield Agricultural Society

Report of the Trustees for the year ended 30th September 2022

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30th September 2022. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

The principal activities of the charitable company in the year under review were those of the advancement of the science and practise of agriculture, horticulture and kindred trades, professions and activities. To advance education for the public benefit.

Ensuring our work delivers our aims

A Board of seven Directors meet on a regular basis. These Directors are also the Trustees of the Society. The Show Committee and Education Committee meet up to 4 times a year working on the activities of the Society. Regular meetings enable the membership to be integral to the workings of the organisation. At the start of all meetings a Director will give a report on the health of the Society and all committee members will be kept up to date with Society based activity. This process helps to keep the Society focused on its charitable objectives and activities. The Board have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the aims and objectives. The Trustees consider how planned activities contribute to the aims and objectives of the Society.

How our activities deliver public benefit

The public benefit delivered by the Society is carried out through several different projects, An evening with..... was cancelled due to the feeling of the Board that it was still too early after the pandemic to invite a large number of people into the society's main facility. We are pleased to say the Schools Food and Farming Day came back this year for the first time since 2019 inviting up to 1,600 school children on to site from 33 schools from across Hull and the East Riding. Driffield Show ran again as a two day show delivering all the usual activities, attractions and experiences for the 20,000 in attendance.

Who used and benefited from our services?

The Society runs a range of educational activities that benefit both members of the Society and also the general public and school children from a range of backgrounds. These include the following:

Significant activities

The main charitable event of the charity is the Driffield Agricultural Show, which was held on 21st and 22nd July this year (a two day show for the second time). The Show brings together the local farming, rural and urban communities together and promotes the principal activity of the charitable company.

The Events Centre was completed in 2015 through the Charity's subsidiary Company, Driffield Showground Events Limited. The aim of this facility is to generate income to both protect the Society from poor weather costs at its main event (the Driffield Show) and also to further its charitable activities.

Grantmaking

The charity is not involved in providing grants, other than the administration of up to 4 educational bursaries per year.

The Focus of our work

The Society's objects are the advancement of the science and practise of agriculture, horticulture and kindred trades, professions and activities. To advance education for the public benefit. To further these objectives the Society look to encourage and promote agricultural education, research and knowledge, transfer and enhance the understanding of agriculture and land management practise amongst the wider population and, to encourage and advance sustainability through responsible stewardship of land and related resources consistent with the needs of future generations and thriving rural economy.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Volunteers

The charity relies heavily on volunteers, both members and non members, and committee and non committee representatives. None of the members of the Board received any benefits from the charity during the year.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Charitable activities

The main charitable activities of the charity were those of the advancement of the science and practise of agricultural, horticulture and kindred trades, professions and activities. To advance education for the public benefit.

FINANCIAL REVIEW Principal funding sources

The charity is funded by a bank current account.

Investment policy and objectives

The Agricultural Society maintains an adequate current account to meet its day to day requirements.

The main NatWest account and other accounts used for the retention of this money are annually reviewed by the Board and any changes to the charity's investments reviewed before the end of each term.

Reserves policy

It has been agreed that the Society should in best practice maintain at least £150,000 in cash reserves. After a period of consolidation and the significant impact of COVID-19 this fund now needs to be restored to a working level, this will be achieved over the next few years. This then ensures the safe use and running of the Society's facilities and helps to prepare the Society for events in a future year which may create losses by preventing it from holding its annual show, educational events and other fundraising activities. This occurred with the foot and mouth outbreak in 2001 and poor weather during the summer of 2011 and 2012 and the pandemic in 2020 and partially 2021.

The Society holds both restricted and unrestricted reserves. Details of the restricted reserves are included in note 21 to the financial statements. Unrestricted reserves can be spent as and when deemed necessary by the trustees, but normally in the pursuit of the Society's charitable objectives and in line with current fundraising practises.

The reserves policy will be reviewed annually by the Trustees of the Society.

As at 30 September 2022 the Society held unrestricted reserves of £1,218,619 (2021: £1,269,092) and restricted reserves totalling £42,299 (2021 £33,747).

Funds in deficit

The charity has no funds in deficit.

General

The total income for the year amounted to £140,431 (2021: £195,641). Resources expended in the year amounted to £177,662 (2021: £193,612), resulting in a net deficit for the year of £41,921 (2021:surplus £2,029) after recognising unrealised losses on investments of £4,690 (2021: £nil)

Future developments

During the year, the Society have moved forward considerably with regards to developing the facilities on their showground through the wholly owned subsidiary, Driffield Showground Events Limited. Most of this work is now complete with this forthcoming year's focus being to develop the Driffield Show and its other events onsite further.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing document

Driffield Agricultural Society is governed by the Memorandum and Articles of Association of the company dated 29 August 1996 as amended by special resolutions dated 30 September 1997, 14 July 2003, 8 December 2009 and 23 January 2018.

Recruitment and appointment of new trustees

5 Trustees were appointed at the annual general meeting of the company's members on the 27 February 2018, eventually each will sit for 5 years, although initially to ensure rotation a board member will stand down each year for the first 5 years. Each year the members are sought to nominate a new Board member at the Annual General Meeting. This cycle ensures rotation whilst maintaining a good knowledge bank on the Board.

Organisational structure

The charity has a Board which meet on a regular basis and are responsible for strategic direction and policy decisions. A full time Chief Executive is supported by a part time Society Manager, a part time Rental Coordinator and an Accounts Manager to manage the day to day administrative affairs. The society treasurer has regular input into the financial running of the organisation.

Induction and training of new trustees

New trustees are briefed on their legal obligations under charity and company law, the contents of the Articles of Association, the decision making process and the current performance of the charity on joining the Board.

Trustees are encouraged to attend external training courses which will assist them in their role.

Key management remuneration

The Society's trustees and the senior management team comprise the key management personnel of the society. All trustee's give their time freely and no trustee received any remuneration in the year.

The pay of the senior staff is reviewed annually and pay increases assessed on a year to year basis dependent upon average earnings and the performance of the society. The remuneration bench-mark is the range paid for similar roles within a Society with the pay maximum no greater than the highest benchmarked salary for a comparable role.

Wider network

The charity does not have a network of branches and operates solely from its office in Driffield.

Related parties

The charity has a 100% interest in Driffield Showground Events Limited. The activity of Driffield Showground Events Limited is the rental and organisation of non-charitable events on the Driffield Showground. The charity operates a current account with Driffield Showground Events Limited.

Risk management

The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. A trustee (also acting as Treasurer) inspects the accounts on a quarterly basis and reports back to the Board. These systems have been established to enable regular monitoring of these risks so that their impact can be lessened. The trustees met 9 times during 2022 to review Society activity.

A Risk Management Assessment has been written considering the strategic, operational, administrative, and other areas of the business that is reviewed annually at Trustee level.
