## **Chairman’s Report** 

The first 6 months of this period were incredibly strong and promising for the charity with continued development in the quality and scope of the delivery of our focused charitable programmes, strong forward bookings for summer school activities and residentials (Summer 2020) and for continuation of delivery of the national Citizen Service (NCS) with the award of a further 3-year contract and higher funding levels. In addition, the development of a comprehensive and robust business plan to develop the Charity’s trading arm as a Community Interest Company – Via Ferrata Cornwall C.I.C. towards which significant social investment finance was secured. 

The pandemic and initial lockdown associated with Covid-19 caused significant disruption across all areas of operations and with the loss of all summer group bookings placed the charity in a position of extreme financial risk. Thanks to the support of all of our partners and stakeholders and additional government support (business grants, loans and Furlough support) with donations and grants small and large, the charity was secured. This enabled us to continue to deliver our core programmes and vital support to Cornwall’s most vulnerable young people with only a 2 week pause in operations. 

With funding secured it was also decided to utilise the opportunity to push ahead with the development of the new trading arm and Via Ferrata activity which was successfully launched in late July. 

The dedication and commitment shown by the staff and volunteer team throughout this challenging period is immense and enabled the charity to reach the end of this period on both a stable financial position and with a significantly increased charity team supporting a higher number of disadvantaged and vulnerable young people than before the pandemic began.

## **Objectives & Mission** 

“Inspiring, challenging and motivating people, especially young people, to develop their life skills to bring about positive change” 

## **Background:** 

BF Adventure is a Cornwall-based charity dedicated to improving the quality of life and engagement in society for young people and adults through the medium of behavioural and motivational support, focussed youth work, measured outcomes and outdoor activity. 

The charity was established in 1989 by a group of individuals who recognised the potential of using the outdoor environment to positively influence the physical and mental wellbeing of children and young people. 

BFA works with statutory bodies, voluntary and private sector organisations concerned with the well-being of young people, particularly those disadvantaged through social deprivation, physical and mental disability, and behavioural and / or learning difficulties. 

While this core charitable work represents 75% of BFA’s throughput, the activity centre is also popular with school groups working with multiple local schools and academies and with youth groups such as the Guides & Scouts 

In July 2020 the charity launched its dedicated trading arm – Via Ferrata Cornwall C.I.C. Offering a unique Via ferrata activity and a range of other site-based activities to families and individuals (both locals and visitors/tourists), external groups, and businesses (for corporate team building activities). The profits generated from this non-charity work will be used to support the Charitable operations of BF Adventure. 

Activities offered by BFA include basic problem solving, canoeing, abseiling, climbing, swimming, snorkelling, kayaking, archery, orienteering, bushcraft and survival skills, camping, expedition planning, zip wire, raft building, nature trail and independent living skills (budgeting, cooking, planning, job search skills, IT, basic numeracy and literacy). Where possible and appropriate these activities are embedded into accredited programmes at pre-GCSE / GCSE level. 

While, as a priority, maximum use is made of the outdoor classroom, indoor activity and problem-solving space is utilised both during poor weather and increasingly to address wider educational, key and other “soft” skills, and elements of career guidance.

## **Charitable objects:** 

**“To promote and advance the education of young people who through their social and economic circumstances are in need of the provision of training facilities and recreational activities with a view to improving their conditions of life so that they may develop their physical, mental and spiritual capacities and grow to full maturity as individual members of society”** 

**“To provide community facilities in the interests of social welfare for recreation and leisure time occupation with the object of improving their conditions of life.”** 

When reviewing our Aims and Objectives, and in planning our future activities the Trustees have referred to the information contained in the Charity Commissions general guidance on public benefit and that contained within the Charity Governance Code. 

## **Our Core Programmes** 

We have continued to deliver and develop our core charitable programmes this year. Our provision was closed for 2 weeks over the easter period due to the first Covid-19 lockdown but re-opened with an initially reduced staff team to support young people classed as highly vulnerable, demand from referral partners grew exponentially across the year and we responded by building the team and expanding provision. The increase in costs associated with Covid-safe operations and gap in funding was met by a range of funders and partners including Cornwall Council, The Wooden Spoon Charity, Garfield Western and numerous other donors including those supporting an urgent crowdfund appeal. We are hugely grateful to all of our partners, supporters and stakeholders for enabling us to continue to support young people throughout this challenging period 

## Young person’s feedback: 

_“I feel like before I started I wasn’t myself but it’s helped me get back to where I was before and be more confident.  I want to come back and volunteer when I am old enough”_ 

We have developed our Skills for Life programmes to meet needs identified through our clients, referrers and partners; as a learning organisation committed to delivering change, we are able to adapt our provision as demand changes and in recent years the focus of many of our additional programmes has been on developing provision to improve mental health and well-being. 

During the 2019/20 academic year we delivered 1693 Skills for Life sessions across a range of programmes.  Our Social Impact Report is produced yearly to record in detail the difference that our provision makes.  Headlines from this report are:

## **Skills for Life – Learn Differently** 

Our Learn Differently programme is dedicated to providing young people aged 5—16 with an alternative education provision. We create bespoke, co-produced programmes built around individual needs whilst utilising our 60+ acre site. We use a host of activities which provide challenges and experiences that are key in building self-esteem, critical thinking and improving social and personal skills.  Learning differently helps young people build capacity to change and improve their outcomes. Our goal is to provide young people with support in developing resilience and effective coping strategies for dealing with the stress of life. 

## **Skills for Life - Access to Adventure** 

Inclusivity is essential to our work at BF Adventure and we continue to develop the site to ensure that people with physical and/or learning disabilities can participate in all aspects of our provision. This year we have continued to provide our Access to Adventure group provision and 1:1 support and were able to draw funding from Baily Thomas and CLA Charitable Trust to support Family Activity Days throughout the summer holidays. 

During the summer we worked with 11 families whose lives are impacted by disability. 

## **Skills for Life - Head Out** 

The 8-week mental health and well-being programmes run on a half-termly basis and include 1:1 outreach and transition phases alongside group work on site. We have expanded the initial term time provision to include group work throughout the summer holidays. 

During 2019-20 we have delivered 5 Head Out programmes and supported 30 young people to develop improved coping strategies to manage their mental well-being. 

## **Skills for Life – Head Out LGBTQ** 

Funded through a private donor this programme follows the Head Out with a combination of workshops and outdoor activities.  Each group plans their own themes for workshops and the groups have covered confidence building, identity, sexuality and reducing isolation. 

During 2019/20 we supported 18 young people. 

## **Skills for Life – Family Work** 

At BF Adventure we love to work with whole families and support the development of positive communication and relationships where there may have been a breakdown for some reason. During this year we have supported 7 families through our contract with Safer Stronger Consortium to deliver under the Victim Care Unit Contract and 3 families through Together for Families funded provision.

## **Group Delivery** 

Alongside our Core charitable programmes, the charity offers a wide range of sessions for a whole variety of groups and organisations. Due to our staff’s skills and our inclusive equipment, we specialise in educational activity days for other charitable organisations. We can provide activities to improve communication, confidence, life skills or just provide an unforgettable experience. Most of our activities are fully accessible, making us a popular choice for groups with some additional needs. We provide residential camps and activity days for a large number of Cornish Schools. 

Some of our long-term programme partners include: 

NCS - delivery of the National Citizenship Service programme to Y11 students, this includes their engagement in local community projects. 

Carefree - residential and one - off activity programmes to support young people in care and leaving care. 

## **Impact of Covid-19:** 

With 95% of group activity taking place from Easter through to October, the impact of the pandemic and the start of Lockdown 1 upon 23[rd] March 2020 was wide ranging and immediate. All planned school and group visits were either cancelled or transferred to 2021, seasonal staff and the group management team were either placed upon the Government Furlough scheme or reallocated to other areas of operations. 

In addition, ongoing restrictions resulted in the NCS scheme having to be significantly modified with reduced numbers and associated income. 

## **Volunteering** 

During 2019-20 (Pre-Covid) we received support from 60 individuals, with around 6 actively involved in delivery and maintenance in any given week. Most individuals support for one day per week and volunteer working parties support one off fundraising and maintenance events. 

Many of our site projects would not happen without volunteer support and our clients benefit tremendously from having additional support on session. 

We are a popular choice for work experience placements with local school students. This year unfortunately we were unable to support our usual 15 students with their early steps into the world of work.

BF Adventure Annual Report 2019-20 Company Number 3546772 


## **Apprenticeships** 

We were unable to start our apprenticeship intake in the spring of 2020 due to the impact of the pandemic with start dates pushed forward to Autumn. 

## **Site & Strategic Developments** 

Whilst the financial impact of the pandemic limited capital investment in the site we were able to complete following works through 2019 and 2020: 

- Replacement of failing office and admin infrastructure with refurbished Porta cabins 

- Investment into the development of a unique new activity – Via Ferrata to expand the activity offering and to drive commercial income generation 

All of our recent developments are an essential part of delivering our future vision. 

## **Our Aims:** 

By 2025 BFA will have the following characteristics: 

1. Making a positive difference to **all** whom access our services 

2. A leading provider of inclusive and accessible services to disadvantaged and disengaged individuals of all ages and abilities 

3. A highly skilled & motivated team 

4. A sustainable operation delivering lasting change and making a positive environmental impact 

5. Operating across the southwest from its home base at Goodygrane offering market leading activities, accommodation, training facilities and appropriate support infrastructure 

6. Strong relationships and presence across the voluntary sector 

7. A recognised and leading provider of individual, family and group outdoor activities - now within the Via Ferrata Cornwall CIC trading arm. 

## **Plans for 2020-21** 

To consolidate the growth achieved in the Core Charity team seeking to continue to develop services and the impact upon those supported. 

To generate additional unrestricted income by looking to promote and maximise the Via Ferrata commercial offering. 

Business Planning, consultation and development will be undertaken throughout the period to review the existing organisational and operational strengths, weaknesses, to consider future threats and opportunities and to develop a 2025 Vision/Mission, Strategic aims and associated business plans to take the charity forwards.

## **Financial Review** 

- Current Free Unrestricted assets as at 31[st ] August 2020 £36k (last year £34k) 

- This represents a ratio of 0.6 months of our average monthly expenditure and our reserves policy sets out to increase this level across the next few years 

- This year we recorded an unrestricted deficit of £3k after charging £20k depreciation. £15k was invested from our reserves into unrestricted fixed assets 

- Restricted reserves show a surplus of £10k after charging £45k depreciation. £14k was invested in new restricted assets. Of our £291k restricted reserves, £225k will be drawn down in depreciation of assets over the next few years. 

## **2019-20 Review** 

At the end of February 2020 the organisation was on course to achieve a positive year end position and to generate a potential £40K operating surplus, the impact of this unprecedented pandemic, the associated lockdowns and restrictions on ongoing operations have been considerable and have included; the loss of a significant volumes of group and adventure centre bookings, the dramatic reduction in the number of young people we are able to support on site through core operations and the limitation of fundraising activities. 

Through a range of measures including utilising the Government support schemes (Furlough/coronavirus salary support scheme, Business rates grant, HMRC payment holiday) by securing additional grant funding, existing funders agreeing for funds to be utilised in a different manner, additional support from Cornwall Council and by reducing all variable costs we were able to achieve a breakeven year end position. 

## **2020-21 Expectations** 

Our primary objective for 2020-21 remains to increase our current reserves level. Our budget sets a minimum expectation of a £10k increase in current reserves. We will look to rebuild operations and income from the Autumn onwards taking an agile approach as the pandemic situation develops and progresses. 

## **Investment powers, policy and performance:** 

The Trustees’ investment policy is governed by the Trustee Investment Act 2000. Current investments are spread between COIF Charities Investment Fund and COIF Charities Fixed Interest Fund. Surplus funds are deposited with Barclays Bank, Santander Plc. and Bank of Scotland to achieve maximum spread of risk. Our investments were reviewed in 2013-14, we chose not to commit any further funds to long term investments and to ensure reserves remain available to support site infrastructure improvements where essential. Our aim across the next 3-5 years is to increase the level of cash investments held once reserves have recovered to a safe level. Our investment objectives were to safely invest, with an expectation of a small additional income for the organization. This objective has been met.

BF Adventure Annual Report 2019-20 Company Number 3546772 


## **A Going Concern?** 

We had made significant progress in reducing the level of risk the organisation is exposed to. Changes to our objects, structure and site have all been made to enable us to deliver sufficient income to be sustainable. Whilst the value of our Core programmes is huge, the reality of maintaining high-cost activity equipment is a constant pressure on resources and is not viable without higher volume group activities. The ongoing development of profitable trading activities in order to increase the surplus we can generate and then utilise to support Core charitable activities is ongoing. 

The impact of Covid-19 was and remains considerable, including interruptions to delivery and cancellations of group activities including schools. This initially placed the organisation under considerable financial pressure but we believe we can maintain the organisation and have begun to rebuild group operations with income levels expected to return to normal in 2022-23. Our Core services have seen increased demand and funding because of the pandemic. This, alongside income from Via Ferrata CIC means we anticipate a surplus of around £44k in 2021-22, with our May 2021 management accounts showing a surplus for the year to date of £71k. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

We have invested significantly in order to expand our more stable income streams following widespread changes to both Statutory/Council and European funded programmes through previous financial periods. With the resulting growth in stable and surplus generating income streams, our reserves policy for the coming years is to deliver a year on year increase in Current Reserves, with the aim of achieving £100k (which represents approximately 3 months of trading). This level will improve our resilience against future income fluctuations and allow us to respond appropriately in the event of any future significant changes in income levels. Our reserves levels are cyclical, and increase through the summer months. The Board of Trustees review the position regularly throughout the year with the finance committee having an updated monthly oversight of our ongoing financial position. 

## **Structure, Governance and Management** 

## **Governance, governing documents and constitution:** 

The organisation is a charitable company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 16 April 1998 and registered as a charity on 7 October 1998. 

(The Bishops Forum was initially inaugurated on 1[st ] February 1988 and constituted as a charitable trust on 22[nd ] September 1989.) 

The company was established under a Memorandum of Association that established the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of 

12 




## BF Adventure Annual Report 2019-20 

## Company Number 3546772 

Association. The original Memorandum of Association was amended with the addition of a second charitable object on 14 May 2007. The Company was renamed BF Adventure on 16 October 2008. The charitable objects were then widened on 17 August 2017. 

The registered office is Goodygrane Activity Centre, Halvasso, Longdowns, Penryn, Cornwall, TR10 9BX. 

## **Recruitment and appointment of Trustees:** 

Under the Articles of Association the Trustees are appointed by ordinary resolution or by the Trustees. Only a person recommended by the Trustees or a person nominated by a member giving 14 to 35 days notice may be appointed as a Trustee. A three year staggered retirement/rotation period (with no maximum number of terms served) was introduced from 20[th ] March 2013. 

## **Trustee induction and training:** 

All trustees are selected for the skills and experience they can offer. They are formally inducted into the organization by the CEO and management team. There are opportunities for trustees to support on session, or support site development as well as spending time with the team. We recognise the need for ongoing trustee training and support and the governance committee has introduced a training programme to enhance trustee knowledge around governance and safeguarding. 

## **Organisational structure:** 

The day to day running of the charity is overseen by the CEO supported by an experienced Senior Management Team consisting of; Charity Business Manager, Activity Centre Manager and Finance Support. 

There is significant variance in staffing levels aligned with the seasonality of demand for services; last summer there were 23 staff employed on a full-time basis, there are 18 support and instructional staff with part-time contracts, some only work during the summer period **.** 

## **Pay policy for senior staff:** 

The organisation has implemented a Staffing Matrix, which defines the level of responsibility and salary banding for each role across the organization. The matrix pay levels will be reviewed annually by a new Remuneration committee led by the trustees. Pay for senior staff is incorporated within this and no separate policy is in place. 

## **Risk management:** 

The BF Adventure Risk Register is reviewed regularly by both the Senior Management Team and the 

13 




## BF Adventure 

## Annual Report 2019-20 

## Company Number 3546772 

Board. Whilst this period has seen a marked improvement in our financial resilience this remains the main area of risk, and we will continue to build resilience over the next few years. The trustees also recognise the level of risk associated with both safeguarding and health and safety due to the nature of our delivery and activities. These risks are regularly monitored and reviewed to ensure we always follow best practice. 

## **Statement of Trustees’ responsibilities** 

The Trustees (who are also directors of BF Adventure for the purpose of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. 

Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- Observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

- Make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- State whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and 

- Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation. 

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

The Trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charity’s website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. 

## **Small company provisions** 

This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions for small companies under Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006.

BF Adventure Annual Report 2019-20 Company Number 3546772 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements** 

## **1. Accounting policies** 

## **Summary of significant accounting policies and key accounting estimates** 

The principal accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all the years presented, unless otherwise stated. 

## **Statement of compliance** 

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. 

## **Basis of preparation** 

BF Adventure 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 notes. 

Under the Companies Act the parent charity is not required to prepare consolidated financial statements for the financial year as the group meets the requirements of a small group.  The charitable group is also below the threshold for preparing consolidated financial statements under the Charities Act. 

## **Going concern** 

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The trustees assess whether the use of going concern is appropriate i.e. whether there are any material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the Charity to continue as a going concern. The trustees make this assessment in respect of a period of one year from the date of approval of the financial statements. 

The trustees recognise the impact of Covid-19 on the organisation. Whilst it has presented some significant challenges we are continuing to deliver essential support services and have utilized government support to retain staff where associated income levels have significantly dropped. As restrictions begin to be lifted it is hoped group delivery income levels will begin to grow again and we will be in a position to return staff to their roles. 

## **Income and endowments** 

All incoming resources are included in the statement of financial activities when it is probable the charity will be entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. 

22 




## BF Adventure Annual Report 2019-20 Company Number 3546772 

## **Income from Instruction Fees** 

Income from instruction fees is recognised in the period of delivery. 

## **Donations and legacies** 

Donations are recognised when the Charity has been notified in writing of both the amount and settlement date. In the event that a donation is subject to conditions that require a level of performance by the Charity before the Charity is entitled to the funds, the income is deferred and not recognised until either those conditions are fully met, or the fulfilment of those conditions is wholly within the control of the Charity and it is probable that these conditions will be fulfilled in the reporting period. 

## **Grants receivable** 

Grants are recognised when the charity has an entitlement to the funds and any conditions linked to the grants have been met. Where performance conditions are attached to the grant and are yet to be met, the income is recognised as a liability and included on the balance sheet as deferred income to be released. 

## **Expenditure** 

Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates. 

## **Raising funds** 

These are costs incurred in attracting voluntary income, the management of investments and those incurred in trading activities that raise funds. 

## **Charitable activities** 

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the Charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them. 

## **Cost allocation** 

Direct expenditure has been allocated where possible. Remaining costs have been allocated as follows: 

|2020||2019||
|---|---|---|---|
|Skills for Life|25%|Skills for Life|25%|
|Group Educational Activities|30%|Group Educational Activities|30%|
|Fundraising|5%|Fundraising|5%|
|NCS|25%|NCS|25%|
|Group Commercial Activities|10%|Group Commercial Activities|10%|

BF Adventure Annual Report 2019-20 Company Number 3546772 Support Costs 5% Support Costs 5% 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Individual fixed assets costing £500 or more are initially recorded at cost, less any subsequent accumulated depreciation and subsequent accumulated impairment losses. 

## **Depreciation and amortisation** 

Depreciation is provided on tangible fixed assets so as to write off the cost or valuation, less any estimated residual value, over their expected useful economic life as follows: 

|Asset class|Depreciation method and rate|
|---|---|
|Land and buildings|5 - 30 years Straight Line|
|Plant and machinery|2 - 10 years Straight Line|
|Motor vehicles|5 years Straight Line|
|Computer software|2 - 4 years Straight Line|



## **Investments** 

Investments held as fixed assets are revalued at mid-market value at the balance sheet date and the gain or loss taken to the statement of financial activities 

## **Leasing** 

Rentals payable under operating leases are charged against income on a straight line basis over the lease term. 

## **Fund structure** 

Unrestricted income funds are general funds that are available for use at the trustee's discretion in furtherance of the objectives of the Charity. 

Restricted income funds are those donated for use in a particular area or for specific purposes, the use of which is restricted to that area or purpose.
