**RIBBLE VEHICLE PRESERVATION TRUST LIMITED** 

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023** 

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 August 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). 

The report is prepared in accordance with the small company regime (section 419(2) of the Companies Act 2006). 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES Objectives and aims** 

The objectives and aims of the charity in the year under review were to: 

- preserve the heritage of Ribble Motor Services of the period 1919 to 2013, 

- preserve, restore and where possible operate buses which served in the Ribble fleet during those years, 

- maintain an archive of Ribble artefacts which help to tell the story of the company, 

- use our restored buses in service at historic bus events, local festivals, educational schools visits and in support of other local charities where it is appropriate. 

When planning the activities for the year the Trustees have considered the Commission's guidance on public benefit.  The policy of Ribble Vehicle Preservation Trust is to display the collection of restored vintage buses in public places to illustrate to the public how vehicle design and operation has changed over the decades. 

The charity regularly uses its vehicles to provide free services to the public so that they can enjoy the experience of riding on vintage buses. This is often done in conjunction with, and in support of, other local charity and heritage groups.

## **REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023** 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Charitable activities** 

We held our annual Members Day on the 2nd of April 2023, and as usual we opened our premises at Freckleton to  allow our members to see behind the scenes, and we also ran some vehicles locally, again to give our members the chance to ride their favourite vehicles. 

Our main event based at Morecambe Football Club, was as big a success with one of the best attendances and it really seemed popular with more families attending as well as bus enthusiasts, we aim to build on this success next year. 

Our other main event at Lytham Hall, unfortunately had to be cancelled due to the wet summer, particularly the weeks leading up to the day, meant that the ground would be too soft, with the danger of buses becoming stuck, and ruining the lawns at the Hall, the decision was jointly taken between us and the charity who run the Hall that the event should be cancelled. 

Due to the parking at the Hall being on grass, we are reliant on good weather, and it has a limited access, parking  issues, and as the Hall is a charity in its own right, it relies on events, and we cannot expect the same set date each year, so we have decided to look at other venues. 

This brings me to our Ribble/Fishwick joint running day, held at the British Commercial Vehicle Museum in Leyland  in September 2023. We had a static display of vehicles on the car park at the Museum, and operated free bus service  from Leyland to Chorley, Bamber Bridge and Preston. This was very well attended by families and enthusiasts alike. Working on this success we think this might become our second main event and replace the running day at Lytham Hall. 

We visited events and supported other groups running days, such as Mersey Side Transport Trust at Burscough, Town and District Transport Group at Great Harwood, and Barrow Transport Group, also Aire Valley Transport at Skipton, and  GMTS at Manchester. 

Our latest restorations, the Leyland Royal Tiger 377 and Leyland PD2 1467 are now in the operating fleet and have  been greatly admired at our events and proved popular to ride on. The restoration of Leyland National 382 is well under  way and is expected to be completed by late 2024. 

We have noticed a big reduction in our electricity costs thanks to the LED lighting that has been fitted in the  beginning of 2023. 

The help and support of the volunteers and members has been vital to the achievement and performance of the charity. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Principal funding sources** 

The principal funding sources during the year were from sponsorships and donations. 

## **Reserves policy** 

In accordance with guidelines issued by the Charity Commissioners, the Trustees have adopted a policy regarding the reserves which should ensure that: 

a) Excluding those funds allocated to fixed assets, general reserves do not exceed more than 15 months anticipated expenditure; 

b) There are adequate funds to ensure that the Charity is able to meet all current and known future liabilities. 

The level of resources is considered at regular intervals by the Finance Committee. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Governing document** 

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF RIBBLE VEHICLE PRESERVATION TRUST LIMITED** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Ribble Vehicle Preservation Trust Limited ('the Company')** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 August 2023. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible  for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as  carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an  independent examination; or 

4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their  accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)). 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

**RIBBLE VEHICLE PRESERVATION TRUST LIMITED** 

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2023** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **Basis of preparing the financial statements** 

The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. 

## **Income** 

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

## **Expenditure** 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Assets purchased for use by the charity on an ongoing basis are capitalised. 

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. 

Land                                    - nil Buildings                              - 2% on cost Plant and machinery etc        - 20% on cost 

The company has in its possession approximately 30 commercial vehicles and certain plant and equipment, all of which have been gifted to the charity or acquired at costs that cannot be determined. 

## **Taxation** 

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

## **Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees. 

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. 

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements. 

## **Going concern** 

The trustees have considered the expected income from various sources for the next twelve-month and five-year periods and planned expenditure accordingly. 

If income falls short of expectations, the trustees are confident that the expenditure can be controlled such that together with retained reserves there are sufficient funds such that there is no threat to the charity being able to continue as a going concern
