WINTERBOURNE MEDIEVAL BARN TRUST

CHAIR’S STATEMENT

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

Dear Friends

This year has been significantly impacted by Covid 19. The various restrictions have meant that activities have been severely limited and have not been possible for much of the year. The enforced closure did give us an opportunity for us to finish fitting out the site and installing interpretation. It also encouraged us to find new ways of working and presenting activities which have meant that we have reached a much wider audience. This achievement represents a lot of hard work by many people over the years. In particular, the support of our many volunteers has been essential in reaching this point.

There have been no changes of Trustee during the financial year. On 13 August 2021 Linda Hall resigned as a Trustee and I would like to thank her for all her support in the past and am pleased to say that she will stay as a volunteer continuing to provide advice on historical and architectural matters. On 31 July 2020 we were fortunate to be joined by Rosina Pullman as Company Secretary and she has brought a wealth of experience.

Sue Fox and Andy Peters retire by rotation this year and are happy to stand for re-election. In addition, our Constitution requires a third of Trustees to be re-elected each year. I am two years through a three year term and have also agreed to stand for re-election.

Following completion of the refurbishment project at the end of March 2020, South Gloucestershire Council (SGC) granted us a 25 year lease of the site. The site remained closed until the summer due to Covid restrictions. We were able to use this time to ensure that it provided a fitting venue and I am extremely grateful to Hazel Hatton, our Business and Development Manager for this. We also had to review methods of operation as restrictions changed. Jasmine Loveys, our Community Engagement Officer developed new activities such as Covid secure Family Days and other events and the development of on-line activities such as lectures. We were unable to organise our normal Carol Service but St Michael’s Church produced a fantastic film which was made available on our website. This attracted an international audience as well as being featured on BBC Points West. The activities that were held were extremely well received and demonstrated how much the Barn is valued by the local community and other visitors. It also demonstrated how flexibly the space and facilities can be used. We were able to adopt alternative models for events and activities which enabled us to engage with those members of the community isolated by Covid and unable to attend large scale events.

The pandemic has also impacted interest in commercial hire of the barn for events, and these are an essential element of our Business Plan. There has been considerable interest and a commercial “wedding shoot” demonstrated how wonderful the venue can be for such events. We have also looked at alternative models for events which reflect people’s potential reluctance to attend large scale events. On a positive note, all four of our Byre units have now been let, as well as space in the West Barn which will help to secure the economic future.

We are hopefully in a position to plan a more active future as it becomes possible to hold more events. Feedback received to date indicates that the Barn is still highly valued as a venue for events and activities.

As we contemplate an exciting future for the Trust, we recognise that we need to ensure appropriate governance with the right mix of skills and experience among our Trustees, as activities and circumstances change. We would love to hear from anyone who believes that they can complement our existing Board and bring new skills.

CHAIR’S STATEMENT

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

In spite of all the restrictions, as a result of astute management we have managed to retain a healthy financial position. I would particularly thank Andy Peters for his excellent support in managing our finances and adapting to ever changing circumstances.

We are looking forward to an exciting future which will be built on the firm foundations developed since the formation of the Trust. Everyone who has been involved should be proud of what has been achieved.

WINTERBOURNE MEDIEVAL BARN TRUST

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

The trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the charity for the 1 April 2020 to 31 March 2021. The trustees confirm that the Annual Report and financial statements of the charitable company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the company's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP), applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

a. Policies and objectives

The trustees have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the Trust’s aims and objectives and in planning future activities. In particular, the trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set.

The trust operates the site of the Winterbourne Court Farm Barn under a 25 year lease from South Gloucestershire Council which commenced in September 2020. SGC has agreed to waive the rent payable of £37,730 per annum under the lease on condition of the trust meeting various obligations with regards to the operation and maintenance of the site.

The objects of the trust are:

To promote and undertake the conservation, restoration and management for the public benefit of Winterbourne Court Farm Barn and surrounding land at Church Lane, Winterbourne, South Gloucestershire, by such exclusively charitable means as the trustees shall from time to time determine, and:

The advancement of the public’s knowledge and understanding of the history and architecture of Winterbourne Court Farm Barn, and its surrounding landscape and the history of food production, storage and preparation of food and farming methods generally in the surrounding area, by the provision of facilities for guided tours, exhibitions, talks and such matters as the trustees shall from time to time determine

The Trustees have reviewed and assessed the achievements of the Trust in terms of key activities and benefits and have taken the objects into account when planning future activities.

b. Activities for achieving objectives

The trust’s main objectives continue to be preservation of the unique 14th century Barn and promotion of knowledge of the history of its architecture, agricultural landscape and people through creation of a renowned centre which will provide for future generations:

WINTERBOURNE MEDIEVAL BARN TRUST

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

• Use of the barn as a centre for the local community and provision of cultural and other activities; and

• Management of the asset to ensure that it can be restored and maintained as befits its status.

c. Volunteers

The Trust has two paid members of staff who are assisted by volunteers which over the year comprised 53 people. This assistance incorporated maintaining the site, publicising, managing and hosting events and activities, cultivating the vegetable garden and general management.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

a. Review of activities

The physical refurbishment project to refurbish the site, in partnership with SGC, was completed in March 2020. The delay in fully reopening caused by Covid 19 gave us the opportunity to continue with the fit out of the site and complete the interpretation. The overall project will continue for some time to complete the Activities aspects of the refurbishment.

The Trust organised an adapted events and an activities programme during the year, as and when Covid 19 restrictions allowed. The Trust also expanded its activities to include virtual events which enabled us to reach an international audience. The activities included events for families and children, and many were supported by the National Lottery Heritage Fund (NLHF) funding. These events generated income of over £5,000.

The various events attracted nearly 2,600 people over the year including nearly 650 people attending Covid safe activities on site, the remainder predominantly accessing virtual activities. In particular, over 750 people across the world viewed the Carol service in December 2020.

All the above events and activities were organised and supervised by our numerous volunteers who also maintain the site and cultivate the vegetable garden The volunteers have also played a major role in landscaping the site following the refurbishment.

Unrestricted funds have increased by £19,164 leaving £68,548 to be carried forward (2020: £49,384). Restricted funds have been reduced to £nil (2020: £24,498) by expenditure exceeding grants and donations. A transfer of £13,875 was made to cover the excess of expenditure over income.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

a. Reserves policy

The disclosure in the accounts analyses reserves between unrestricted funds, which are available for the main objects of the trust, and restricted funds, which are only available for the purposes set down by the donor. The trustees have examined the requirements for reserves in light of the main risks to the Trust.

At 31 March 2021 the unrestricted, undesignated funds not committed or invested in fixed assets (the free reserves) held by the charity amounted to £30,843 (2020: £21,561).

WINTERBOURNE MEDIEVAL BARN TRUST

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

The trustees consider that unrestricted funds should be designated to a building repair reserve as a contingency against future repair and maintenance costs of the site. £25,000 was transferred from general funds to the Building Repair Reserve in the year.

The trustees consider that at least three month’s fixed operating costs, estimated to be £10,500 should be the minimum amount maintained in free cash reserves.

Current free reserves are greater than the minimum because of sound financial management in the past and to provide an additional buffer against the uncertainties arising from Covid-19 on the operation of the site in the months to come.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

a. Constitution

The charity is constituted under a Memorandum of Association dated 12 June 2003 (company limited by guarantee) and is a registered charity number 1112908.

b. Method of appointment or election of trustees

The management of the charity is the responsibility of the trustees who are elected under the terms of the Articles of Association.

Under the requirements of the Memorandum and Articles of Association the number of trustees shall be not less than three but (unless otherwise determined by ordinary resolution) shall not be subject to any maximum.

At each Annual General Meeting one third of the trustees shall retire. The trustees to retire first shall be those who have been longest in office since their last appointment. Those trustees who are retiring are eligible to seek re-election.

Members are encouraged to volunteer for a range of tasks including that of trustees; membership is open to all on payment of a modest subscription. Potential trustees are interviewed by a small panel of trustees before making a recommendation for appointment by the full trustee board. In the event of identified skills needed, WMBT will approach an appropriate agency such as CVS South Gloucestershire, VOSCUR or REACH in the quest to fill that skills gap, and a similar process is adopted before appointment.

c. Policies adopted for the induction and training of trustees

The board strives to ensure that the trustees are informed and educated on their role and responsibilities as a charity trustee and director.

d. Organisational structure and decision making

The board of trustees meets on a regular basis and is responsible for setting the strategic direction and policy of the charity. The day to day administration of the trust is delegated to the members of the Finance Committee and General Purposes Committee. The Finance Committee is chaired by the Treasurer and the General Purposes Committee by the Vice Chair of Trustees. The Chair is an ex-officio member of both committees. In addition to these committees there is an Events and Publicity committee.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

e. Risk management

The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the charity, and are satisfied that systems and procedures are in place to manage our exposure to the major risks.

f. Impact of COVID 19

Along with most organisations our operations and plans have been significantly impacted by Covid-19.

Our Business Plan prepared in 2017 was based on 2020/21 being the year to establish the site as a Rural Craft and Heritage Centre, including the development of our commercial hire offering (including weddings), reflecting a position closer to economic self-sustainability. Obviously, the enforced closure has delayed this.

Our signature events (Medieval Fayre and Orchard Harvest Day) and many of our plays and music events could not take place. However, we adapted. We ran some events remotely, others in a hybrid fashion catering for those who could attend in person and those who couldn’t and ran events which we wouldn’t otherwise have contemplated. In many ways Covid has shown how adaptive we can be.

The impact of Covid on wedding hirings has been significant, just as it has been for all wedding venues. We did not have any wedding hires in 2020 and our bookings for this year and 2022 are at this stage not promising.

On a positive note, we envisage all the Byre units remaining fully let, and we have managed to reduce our operating costs. This together with the continued support from SGC via its Revenue Grant and Covid Support grants meant that financially we ended 2020/21 in a better financial position than we could have expected and are hopeful that notwithstanding COVID 19 we can record a small surplus for 2021/22. In addition, the careful management of our financial resources in the past means that have built up cash reserves which should cover any shortfall should COVID 19 have a more detrimental impact on 2021/22.

PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS

a. Future developments

The experience of the last year has provided us with great confidence that as pandemic restrictions are relaxed we will have a successful future ahead of us and that Winterbourne Medieval Barn will continue to be a valued community asset.

MEMBERS' LIABILITY

The Members of the charity guarantee to contribute an amount not exceeding £10 to the assets of the charity in the event of winding up.

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

1 Accounting policies

Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with the Charities Act 2011, the Financial Reporting Standard 102 (FRS102) and the requirements of the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice based thereon.

The charity is a public benefit entity as defined under FRS102. The Trustees have considered the implications of the COVID-19 pandemic in assessing the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. Please see the Trustees' Report for further details. Having considered this and all other factors the Trustees are consider that the charity is able to continue as a going concern.

Income

Income from donations is included in income when these are receivable, except as follows:

I. When donors specify that donations given to the charity must be used in future accounting periods, the income is deferred until those periods;

II. When donors impose conditions which have to be fulfilled before the charity becomes entitled to use such income, the income is deferred until the pre-conditions have been met.

Legacies are included on a receivable basis where charity is entitled to the income, it can be measured reliably and receipt is probable. Where legacies have been notified to the charity, or the charity is aware of the granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is not included in income but is treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material.

Investment income is included on a receivable basis.

Donations in kind comprise donated services where the costs are measurable and the services would otherwise have to be paid for to maintain operational effectiveness.

Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised in the period in which it is incurred. Expenditure includes attributable VAT which cannot be recovered.

Raising funds

Raising funds expenditure include those costs incurred in seeking voluntary contributions, costs of goods sold and other costs which include the costs of running and participating in fundraising events and collections and cost of goods purchased for resale.

Charitable Activities

Grants awarded are allocated to charitable activities.

Grants awarded are treated as expenditure and a liability in the accounts as soon as they become legal or constructive obligations. In the case of multi-year grant awards, the funding for all years is immediately recognised unless there are conditions which need to be met by the recipient to enable the release of subsequent years’ funding.

1 Accounting policies (continued)

Governance costs

Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include the audit fees and costs linked to the strategic management of the charity. Governance costs are included within support costs.

Allocation and apportionment costs

Certain expenditure is directly attributable to specific activities and this has been included in those cost categories. Other costs, which are attributable to more than one category, are apportioned across cost categories on the basis of an assessment of workload carried out from time to time.

Overhead support costs have been allocated between fundraising and publicity costs, fundraising trading and charitable activities. The apportionment has been allocated on the basis of usage and is analysed in

Intangible fixed assets

Website development has been capitalised to the extent that it is probable that future economic benefits attributable to the website are likely which will benefit to the Trust. The asset is being amortised over its estimated useful life of 3 years.

Tangible fixed assets

Fixed assets are held at cost less accumulated depreciation. Assets costing less than £250 are not capitalised. Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an asset, less its estimated ultimate residual value, over the useful life of that asset as follows:

Other fixed assets - over 5 years; straight line

Heritage assets

Heritage assets are held at cost at the time of acquisition. The asset balance represents the historic cost of a cider mill purchased by the Trust in 2014. The cider mill has not been depreciated due to its long economic life and high residual value, meaning any depreciation charged would not be material. One of the Trust's objectives is conservation and therefore it is the responsibility of the trustees to ensure that the condition of the charity's heritage assets does not deteriorate over time.

Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

Liabilities and provisions

Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably. Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide. Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objects 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.

Designated funds form part of unrestricted funds and have been identified as being for particular purposes by the Trustees. They are not restricted and can be transferred to general funds at any time at the discretion of the Trustees.

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