DIRECTORS' REPORT AND UNAUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
Company Number 03423104 Charity Number 1070744
RODLEY NATURE RESERVE TRUST LTD
Report of the Directors for the year ending 31 December 2024
The directors are pleased to present the annual directors' report together with the financial statements for the Trust for the year ended 31 December 2024, which are also prepared to meet the requirements for a directors' report and accounts for Companies Act purposes.
The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and 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 the Republic of Ireland (FRS102) as applicable to small entities.
Objectives and activities
The company's objective and its principal activity is the care and management of leased lands at the former Rodley Sewage Treatment Works as a nature reserve. This is achieved by habitat management for wildlife, in particular the wildlife of wetland habitats, and the education of the public in the understanding, appreciation and enjoyment of wildlife.
Achievements and performance
We have made great efforts over the years to make the Reserve more user friendly for wheelchair users and other visitors with walking problems. A lot of work had already been done on improving the paths and making special facilities for wheelchair users in the bird watching hides but in the latter part of this year major improvements were made to the Blue Badge parking area near the visitor centre.
Our habitat management team of volunteers had another busy year. Major maintenance work took place at the Dragonfly Ponds. What was known as the Marsh area had become overgrown with reeds and was cleared. A new liner measuring 20mx15m was laid and the banking turfed. Water plants will be introduced next year. As the biggest single body of water at the ponds it should appeal to those species such as Common Blue Damselfly that prefer larger areas of water. Work to clear excess vegetation from several other ponds was carried out in the autumn.
The boxes in the Swift nesting tower came down in the autumn gales of 2022. The construction and erecting of a block of new boxes was a big job for our volunteers but the task had been achieved by the end of the year
We have been supported throughout the year by Yorkshire Water. We continue to be very grateful for their support.
Along with the Yorkshire Water support mentioned above, we received personal donations from a number of Friends of the Reserve.
Species sightings
Despite being a relatively small nature reserve in terms of size Rodley does have a wide range of different habitats including wetlands, meadows, crop field and willow coppice and all require a degree of management. Fortunately, we do have a large team of volunteers working on habitat management on Mondays and Fridays throughout the year making this a wonderful place for wildlife despite its proximity to a major city.
Our Barn Owls and Kestrels had another successful year using nest boxes on the Reserve and visitors were again able to enjoy live footage from the boxes on the monitors in the visitor centre. However, of the five eggs laid this year the Kestrels only fledged two young and of the seven eggs laid by the Barn Owls only three fledged. The boxes and cameras were cleaned by the experts early in September so we should hopefully have nice clear images on the monitors in 2025.
As regards the Little Owls in the Manager’s Garden without a camera in the nest box it is difficult to know for certain just how successful they have been. However, in the early part of the year they proved to be the most popular birds to see and photograph, judging by the number of images appearing on social media.
Maintenance work is needed on the Sand Martin nesting bank on the Lagoon every year. This involves erecting scaffolding, clearing out the old nest holes and repacking them with fresh sand prior to the arrival of the birds in the spring. Since its completion early in 2014 it has proved to be very successful but the number of nest holes has reduced in recent years.
Barkers / Airedale Mills development
Finally the Trust continues to be faced with issues with regard to the development of the Barkers Field area that is adjacent to the entrance to the Reserve. The situation is largely unchanged since our report in the 2022 accounts.
As previously noted, the maintenance of an adequate ecology buffer/wildlife corridor between the properties and the river throughout the building process and in the longer term continues to be an area of particular concern as it is extremely important to maintain connectivity of wildlife populations along the river. We are also concerned as to how this zone is to be protected and have stressed the need for adequate secure fencing before the construction phase begins.
The Trust continues to work closely with local councillors and Leeds City Council planning officers and Yorkshire Water to ensure the interests of the Reserve, its users and local communities are protected.

Managing for the Public Benefit
The Directors have paid due regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit in deciding what activities the charity should undertake. Rodley Nature Reserve Trust recognises the need to carry out its charitable activities for the benefit of the public and retains this aim at the centre of its strategic planning.
Involving children in the natural world is an important part of our work on the Reserve and school visits have always proved very popular. Bookings for 2024 were at capacity, with our Education Team welcoming 30 primary school classes, 9 other education groups and 12 uniformed organisations on visits to the reserve. Bookings for 2025 are also at capacity.
Our own children’s club, the Rodley Robins continues to go from strength to strength with a waiting list for places.
We again ran a full programme of events this year, starting with the RSPB Big Garden Birdwatch on 27th and 28th January and Build a Nest Box on 18th February, these particularly aimed at involving families and interesting children in the natural world. Aireborough Rotary Club again ran their very popular Grand Easter Egg Hunt and Autumn Seed trail events on the Reserve, raising valuable funds for local charities. We are grateful to Rodley Cricket Club and the William Merritt Centre for allowing us to use their parking facilities for these two big events
Among other events this year were three Bat Nights, three Fungus Forays, a number of moth trapping events, a Nature Quest Day, spring birdwalk on National Dawn Chorus Day and the Halloween Event. Supervised Pond Dipping started at the beginning of June on Saturdays and Sundays and was extended to include Wednesdays during the school summer holidays. As always this proved very popular with families.
Fundraising Policy
Rodley Nature Reserve Trust does not employ agents to raise funds on their behalf, nor does it undertake unsolicited mailings to request donations.
Funds are raised through:
Grants received
Unsolicited donations and legacies from members of the public Membership of the Friends of Rodley Nature Reserve
Corporate donations either unsolicited or via application/nomination
Off site donation boxes where the responsible official has either requested in writing, or has given written permission On site donation boxes
On site fund raising events
Sales of products and light refreshments within the Visitor Centre
Financial Review
The Statement of Financial Activities shows a net loss of £1,893 and total funds as at 31 December 2024 of £553,244
The Directors have a policy to retain reserves adequate to operate the Nature Reserve for one year should no income arise plus £5,000 as a contingency. They estimate that this would together require £30,000. At 31 December 2024 the unrestricted reserves are £319,177 (2023 £309,751).
Future Developments
Looking ahead in 2025, we still have the building development on the Barkers Field site to deal with in the future but the trustees have continued to closely examine the planning application in great detail and have submitted a number of reports to the Planning Department. We will continue to monitor developments, in particular potential access issues during construction.
Finally, can we once again say a big thank you to all our volunteers and visitors who have continued to support us throughout the year and, of course, the Friends of Rodley Nature Reserve who have continued to raise the valuable funds needed to maintain this wonderful place.

The charity is organised so that the Directors normally meet once a month to manage its affairs.
No staff were employed by the charity during the year. However the charity is grateful to volunteers for the skills and support they so willingly bring.
Friends of Rodley Nature Reserve were set up in 2001 as a Branch with the sole purpose of raising funds for the Trust. The Friends meet monthly and manage a separate bank account.
Risk Management
The Directors are to continue to review the major risks to which the charity is exposed, and systems have been established to mitigate these risks.
Internal risks are minimised by the continued implementation of procedures for authorisation of all transactions and projects and to ensure consistent quality of delivery for all operational aspects of the company. These procedures will be periodically reviewed to ensure they still meet the needs of the company.
: select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
: observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP;
: make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
: prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Trust will ..continue in business.

They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Trust and hence for taking steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included in the charitable company's website.
Statement as to disclosure to our Independent Examiner

- a) there is no relevant information, being information needed by the Independent Examiner in connection with preparing his report, of which the Independent Examiner is unaware.
