Financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2021 

## Report of the directors 

## Objectives and Activities (Continued) 

The main objective of MQT is to oversee the operation of Manchester’s Millennium Quarter, which is a distinctive cultural area in the historic medieval sector of Manchester.  The Millennium Quarter was created as part of the Master plan for rebuilding the city centre following the catastrophic damage sustained in the explosion of June 1996.  It comprises four elements: Exchange Square - a hard landscaped civic space adjacent to the retail core; the Manchester Cathedral Visitor Centre which contains the renovated Hanging Bridge, an exhibition about the Cathedral, meeting rooms and a café; Cathedral Gardens - a new green public space with trees, water features and seating areas and Urbis which is situated in Cathedral Gardens (now the National Football Museum). 

Manchester City Council is directly responsible for the ongoing maintenance of Exchange Square and Cathedral Gardens.  The Cathedral is responsible for the operation of the Cathedral Visitor Centre and received deficit grant funding of £40,426 in 2020/21 from MQT towards operating costs (2019/20: £40,225). 

Achievements, performance and the fulfilment of public benefit Financial performance is summarised in the financial statements accompanying this report. 

National Football Museum 

The National Football Museum continues to operate successfully within the Urbis building and provides regular updates to the Millennium Quarter Trust Board. The Chief Executive of the National Football Museum continues to review strategic and operational plans and is working closely with MQT, Manchester City Council and partners. In 2019/20, the National Football Museum achieved its first year of charging which allowed it to build up reserves for the first time and invest in two new leadership roles: Director of Finance and Commercial and Head of Content. As a result of COVID 19, the Museum closed to the public on March 17[th] 2020 and whilst furloughing the majority of its staff continued to operate the National Football Museum on-line. In order to support Manchester’s recovery it was the first museum to reopen in the city on July 23[rd] . 

Manchester Cathedral Visitor Centre 

During the last year the Millennium Quarter Trust continued to receive reports from the Cathedral Visitors Centre (CVC) Board of Directors. MCVC continues to review its business plan which focuses on developing financial sustainability. The management of the conferencing business reverted back to the CVC in early 2019 after previously being outsourced. Whilst the conferencing business continued beyond the year-end into early March 2020 the Covid-19 epidemic has severely impacted this business with little hope of this income stream returning in the short term. The CVC board is currently looking at options as to how to best generate future income, working with Manchester City Council to develop proposals. The high maintenance cost of the building, including the ongoing issues with leak from Cannon Court continues to impact heavily on cash-flow. CVC promotes the Hanging Bridge through tours and visits to the Cathedral and CVC.

## Report of the directors 

## Manchester Cathedral 

The Cathedral was successful with a bid for National Lottery Heritage Fund (NLHF) funding to carry out an options appraisal to explore the functionality of various internal and external physical interventions, including public realm, along with the potential impacts on the historic fabric of each option, planning acceptability and long-term project viability for both the Cathedral and CVC. An externally facilitated evaluation report commended the Cathedral’s willingness to return to first principles and rethink the project, based on the analyses carried out in 2018. The revised concept scheme is now being worked on by the Cathedral’s project board. 

## Financial risk management objectives and policies 

The principal financial instruments of the company are cash, operating debtors and operating creditors.  The objective of the company in relation to these instruments is to ensure that none of them pose a material threat to the unrestricted reserves of the company. 

All cash is held in Pounds Sterling with Barclays Bank plc. 

The primary risk facing the company is the loss of support from Manchester City Council. Currently grants paid to the company amounts to 2020/21  74% ( 2019/20  : 74%) of the total income and therefore its loss could lead to the closure of the company.  This risk has been mitigated by an undertaking of support (as detailed in the Principal Accounting Policies) given by Manchester City Council. 

## Funding 

Any deficit of the Charitable Company is funded by Manchester City Council.  The company is able to meet all outgoing items of expenditure and future plans and commitments.  The company did not engage in any investment activity during the financial period. 

## Restricted funds 

The company does not hold any restricted funds. 

## Reserves policy 

The company has approved a reserves policy which has identified only a minimal need to accrue reserves for contingencies or investment opportunities. This policy takes account of the current scope of charitable activities as well as future arrangements with MCC.  The reserves held at 31 March 2021 were £nil (2020: £nil). 

## Investment policy 

The company has the power to invest the monies of the company not immediately required for its purposes in any investments, securities or property thought fit, subject to current law.  The company did not make investments during the period covered by these accounts. 

## Going concern 

After making enquiries, the Board has a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to meet its debts as they fall due for the foreseeable future, being a period of twelve months after the date on which the report and financial statements are signed.  For this reason, it continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.  Further information is given in the accounting policies (page 11).  It should be noted that the company

The Millennium Quarter Trust Limited 

Financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2021 

## Report of the directors 

has secured a commitment of support from Manchester City Council to provide appropriate resources for a period at least 12 months from the date of approval of the financial statements. 

Due to Covid-19 no conferences were held at the Cathedral Visitor Centre during the financial year 2020/21. 

Due to the impact on cash flow it was necessary to apply for payment of the grant from Manchester City Council earlier than usual in the financial year. 

MQT will continue to monitor the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic and report to Board members accordingly. 

## Directors' responsibilities for the financial statements 

The Trustees (who are also Directors of the Millennium Quarter Trust for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. 

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial period. Under that law the trustees have elected to prepare financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law) including FRS 102. The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland.  Under company law the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and the 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 (FRS 102); 

- make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

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

The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charitable company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and 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.

Financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2021 

## Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The Millennium Quarter Trust Limited 

I report on the accounts of The Millennium Quarter Trust Limited for the year ended 31 March 2021, which are set out on pages 11 to 18. 

This report is made solely to the charitable company's trustees, as a body, in accordance with the regulations made under section 154 of the Charities Act 2011.  My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the charitable company's trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an independent examiner's report and for no other purpose.  To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and the charitable company's trustees as a body, for my work, for this report, or for the opinions I have formed. 

## Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner 

The trustees (who are also the Directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charitable company's trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year (under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 and Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and that an independent examination is needed). 

Having satisfied myself that the charitable company is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011; 

- to follow the procedures laid down the general Directions given by the Charity 

   - Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act 2011; and 

- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## Basis of independent examiner's statement 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission.  An examination includes a comparison of the accounts with the accounting records kept by the charitable company.  It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters.  The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair' view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. 

## Independent examiner's statement 

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

- which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect, the requirements: 

   - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; 

   - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records; to comply with the accounting requirements of the section 396 of the Companies Act 2006; and 

   - to comply with the Statement of Recommended Practice ‘Accounting and reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing

The Millennium Quarter Trust Limited 

Financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2021 

## Principal accounting policies (continued) 

## Incoming Resources 

Voluntary income comprises all incoming resources from donations, gifts and grants. 

## Donations and gifts 

All monetary donations and gifts are included in full in the statement of financial activities when receivable, provided that there are no donor imposed restrictions as to the timing of the related expenditure, in which case recognition is deferred until the pre–condition has been met. 

Intangible income, which comprises donated services, is included in income at a valuation which is an estimate of the financial cost borne by the donor where such a cost is quantifiable and measurable.  An equivalent amount is charged as expenditure.  No income is recognised when there is no financial cost borne by a third party.  Voluntary help is not included as income. 

## Grants receivable 

Revenue grants are credited as incoming resources when they are receivable provided conditions for receipt have been complied with, unless they relate to a specified future period, in which case they are deferred. 

## Incoming resources from charitable activities 

Incoming resources from charitable activities are accounted for when earned. 

## Resources expended 

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to that category.  Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with use of resources.  Central overhead costs are allocated to operational functions on the basis of their use of central support services. 

Governance costs are the costs associated with the governance arrangements of the company which relate to the general running of the charity as opposed to those costs associated with charitable activities.  Included within this category are costs associated with the strategic as opposed to day to day management of the company's activities. 

Support costs, which include executive and development, finance, ICT, external accountancy, legal, marketing, general office and administration, are allocated across categories of charitable expenditure, governance costs and the costs of generating funds. 

## Fund accounting 

Unrestricted funds are incoming resources received or generated for expenditure on the general objectives of the company at the discretion of the trustees.  Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure imposed by the donor. 

## Cash flow statement 

The accounts do not include a cash flow statement because the company, as a small reporting company, is exempt from the requirement to prepare such a statement under FRS 102.1A.7 Cash Flow Statements.
