The Rona Trust Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 October 2021
ACTIVITIES AND OBJECTIVES FOR THE PUBLIC BENEFIT
The Rona Trust is a charity that operates three large sail training yachts under the name of the Rona Sailing Project.
The Right Honourable Derick Heathcoat Amory started the charity to provide opportunities through sail training for young people to develop a sense of responsibility, resourcefulness and teamwork that will help them throughout their lives. These original aims remain relevant, and the charity continues to have a substantial and beneficial impact on the many young people that sail with it.
While the original ethos remains unchanged, this objective has been extended to people with physical, sensory and learning disabilities, to those overcoming ill health and mental health issues and to those in treatment and recovery from drug and alcohol problems. Sail training has proved to be equally beneficial to people facing these challenges.
The trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance given by the Charity Commissioners on public benefit when reviewing the charity's aims and objectives and when planning future activities.
GOVERNING DOCUMENT
The charity was initially formed as a private charitable venture in 1960 (then known as the London Sailing Project) and formalised as a charitable settlement on 1 July 1961. The Rona Trust was first registered as a charity on 1 December 1966 and became a company limited by guarantee on ] November 1998 (charity number : 1073048).
GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
The work of the charity is overseen and monitored by a board of trustees. None of the trustees have any beneficial interest in the company and all give their services on a voluntary basis. All the trustees are members of the company and guarantee to contribute £1 in the event of the company being wound up.
Trustees are regularly briefed on their legal obligations and frequently meet key employees and other trustees. They are provided with management accounts, business plans and relevant governance documentation.
The operations of the charity are led by a Project Director who is supported by a small number of administrative and technical staff. The Project Director regularly consults with the trustees and seeks their approval on key strategic and operational issues.
The charity is very fortunate to have the services of more than 300 skilled and enthusiastic volunteers. The volunteers crew the yachts, help to maintain them and contribute to the success of the charity in many other ways.
RISK MANAGEMENT
The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed. A comprehensive assessment of the risks has been undertaken and is regularly reviewed. The trustees are satisfied that appropriate controls and mitigations are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error and to minimise the potential for harm to people and the environment.
SAFEGUARDING
Crews sailing with the Trust predominantly fall into vulnerable categories and the Trust has comprehensive procedures and rules in place to protect them.
Safeguarding is taken very seriously. A member of the trustee board has designated responsibility for safeguarding and regularly briefs the trustees about it. The charity also has a Designated Safeguarding Lead (DSL). The designated trustee, the Project Director and the DSL work closely together to ensure that the policies are effective in providing a safe environment.
All trustees, employees and volunteers are required to undertake safeguarding training and this is renewed regularly. Checks are also made with the Disclosure and Barring Service.

SAFETY
The trustees and the Project Director ensure that the Trust's sailing vessels are wel] maintained and fully comply with the appropriate certification laid down by the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA). The Trust has developed an industry leading Safety Management System which is reviewed and updated frequently. A rigorous selection and promotion procedure is in place for appointing volunteers to positions of responsibility on the yachts. This includes ensuring that appropriate in-date Royal Yachting Association (RYA) qualifications are held.
The process for the appointment of skippers is particularly thorough and demanding. The performance of skippers is closely monitored and they are required to undertake regular revalidation assessments to demonstrate they are maintaining the highest level of competence.
At the beginning of each year, the Trust runs familiarisation training weekends for the volunteers to prepare them for the forthcoming sailing season.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
From March 2020 to March 2021, the Trust, like so many other sail training organisations, was unable to operate due to the restrictions in place to control the spread of COVID-19. Using the Government's COVID-19 Response - Spring 2021 (Roadmap) as a framework, operations resumed in April 2021. The initial priority was Afterguard training to eliminate skill fade. Residential sail training voyages with young people resumed at the end of July, which marked 21 months since a trainee had sailed on any of our vessels.
From July to October, we ran a full programme welcoming some familiar crews back onto our boats as well as new ones. Along with the young trainees who sailed during the summer, we were particularly happy to welcome back the Gemini Sailing Project, Phoenix Futures and Bower Grove School crews who all sailed on Donald Searle in the Autumn. A very warm welcome was extended to the Hive Men’s group which supports men with mental health issues who sailed with us for the first time in September having booked their voyage nearly two years previously. We also hosted the RNLI Lifesaving team for a team building voyage as well as a group from RS Components amongst others.
All three boats participated in the ASTO Mayflower Race from Southampton to Dartmouth, and Donald Searle entered the annual ASTO Small Ships Race, coming second. Rona II normally participates in the Sail Training International Tall Ships Races but, due to uncertainties around COVID-19, it was decided that we would not participate in the 2021 event. For the same reason, all voyages in 2021 were restricted to the South of England with no cross-channel passages being permitted,
In total we ran eighty-six voyages in 2021, which was inconceivable at the start of the year. By the end of the sailing season, 328 trainees had sailed on our vessels: 284 aged between 14 and 25 as well as 44 vulnerable adults. Without exception, everyone was enthusiastic to be on the water and we received excellent feedback and support from crew, parents, caregivers, donors, and group leaders.
At the end of the season, fourteen trainees accepted the invitation to participate in the Autumn Watch Leader training weekend and we look forward to welcoming them as Junior Watch Leaders in 2022.
Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for managing COVID-19 were developed to cover both shore-side and sailing activities. Use of free lateral-flow tests was a key part of our SOPs. Everyone was asked to takea test the day before they travelled to the marina and undertake another one upon arrival before joining the vessel.

The Rona Trust Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 October 2021
Sail Training has so much to offer to people - and to the communities in which we live. This has never been truer than in these times of huge challenges presented by COVID-19. As with other charities, staff and volunteers have all shared in the pain this pandemic has brought. It has had immense consequences for our work, and it has affected many people on a personal level. This has however, also brought out all the best traits of resilience, determination and support for others. It has been encouraging that we have been able to play a part in helping people to recover and heal from the effects of lockdown.
VOLUNTEERS
As the Trust is volunteer-based the volunteers are the backbone of the organisation and are relied upon not only to run the sail training voyages, but also to help with various aspects of running of the charity. Despite not being able to sail for 21 months, volunteers of all ranks remained engaged with and supportive of the Trust. The volunteers continued to show commitment and flexibility and were instrumental in safely implementing our successful 2021 sail training programme. 153 volunteers sailed during the 2021 season. Not everyone who wanted to sail could do so because of the short season or because they were affected by COVID, and so we look forward to welcoming many more back in 2022.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Despite the difficulties resulting from the pandemic over the two years, the Trust remains in a strong financial position. The relevant income, expenditure, cash and surplus are shown under unrestricted funds.
We did not have a full season and so, whilst the income from crew and charter fees was good, it was less than if we had run a full season. We also saw an increase in costs related to fuel, food and berthing but savings were made wherever possible. However, as detailed below, donations and grants were very satisfactory and we had a small surplus at the end of the year.
It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a minimum level equivalent to two months expenditure. The trustees consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, the Trust's activities will be able to continue while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. This level of reserve was maintained throughout the year under review.
Although none of the yachts are in imminent need of replacement, the trustees are seeking to increase the charity's cash reserves for when this becomes necessary and have set aside an additional £100,000 for this purpose.
DONATIONS
The trustees remain grateful to the Amory Trust and the Searle Family Trust for their continued and generous support which contributes significantly to the financial stability of the Rona Trust year on year and particularly so during the challenges of the pandemic. ASTO was both quick and generous in providing emergency support to ASTO members. The purpose of the ASTO grants was to help members to weather the storm and to be able to return to providing a vital service to young people and vulnerable adults. In addition to an emergency cash grant from ASTO in 2020, we received a grant of £92,658 in 2021. The grant had the desired outcome, allowing us to resume sailing as soon as we emerged from lockdown and we were allowed to take to the water.
Volunteers' donations remained healthy in 2021, with the majority generously continuing to support the charity as normal via monthly direct debits and one-off donations despite some not sailing.
Sincere thanks are also due to other existing and new donors and supporters including the Leathersellers’ Company, the Girdlers’ company, the Little Britain Challenge Cup, The Heart of England Community Foundation, The Fellowes-Freeman Foundation and 3i all of whom made generous donations in 2021.
The Trust remains grateful to so many volunteers and supporters who not only donate money but also volunteer their time and provide in-kind support, especially Akzo Nobel and RS Components.

GOING CONCERN
Since the end of the year under report, we are starting to see positive signs that we have weathered the impact of COVID-19. The Project Director and the trustees are closely monitoring the situation and are optimistic that it will be possible to resume activities at a more normal level in 2022. The demand for voyages remains high both in terms of new bookings and those which have rolled over from previously cancelled voyages.
Notwithstanding the continued challenges, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
INDEPENDENT EXAMINER
Jaine Best FCA has been re-appointed as independent examiner for the ensuing year.
