WINDSOR HORSE RANGERS LIMITED
TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT – YEAR ENDING 31st MAY 2022
Windsor Horse Rangers is an organisation for children from 8 years to 10 years (Junior section) and 11 years to 18 years (Senior section), although it is not unusual for the rangers to become cadets on reaching 18. As always, our main aim is to provide children with a good grounding in everything to do with horses, from feeding, care of tack, grooming and of course riding during the weekend on both Saturdays and Sundays.
The maintenance carried out this year includes: replacing fencing in some of our fields and horse sick bay. Our Riding School Licence was again renewed successfully.
We have added to the “family” of horses with new additions who in the main have fitted in well with the Ranger way of life.
Monthly donations from our members pay for all day-to-day expenses including wages for our five part-time and one full time employees, feed, farrier and veterinary expenses and all utility bills. All expenditure over and above this is provided by fund-raising which this year comprised of our textile recycling as well as the recycling of, foreign currency and ink cartridges, which provide a regular contribution. We also attended local fetes and provided refreshments and a raffle on our annual Awards Day which again added to our funds. We can claim Gift Aid as we are a registered charity and this continues to make a huge difference to our facilities and forward planning. Parents continue to volunteer and support requirements such as the canteen to provide much-appreciated snacks for the children and a small profit for the organisation. The canteen profit also provides the food for our camps We have also this year been the grateful recipients of grants or donations from the Berkshire Community Fund, Gordon Palmer memorial Trust, Mobbs Memorial Trust, RBWM, France Hayhurst Charitable Trust, Louis Baylis Trust, Bernard Sunley Foundation, Maidenhead Lions Club and Windsor Lions Club.
Children and their parents are kept informed with regular newsletters and an excellent website with both public and private domains. An Annual General Meeting is held every November after our local Remembrance Day Parade and Service to introduce the officers and trustees, keep the parents informed of future plans and answer any questions they may have.
This year we ran a junior & senior summer camp on a day only basis. Regular First Aid courses are run and adults and children attend these, renewing their knowledge on a regular basis.
We have a good board of trustees who have regular meetings, making decisions about employment & financial matters and the general running of the organisation. Special thought is given to safety and security. We have a stringent Health and Safety policy; a qualified Health and Safety advisor visits and we compile an annual update. We also have Child Protection policies in place. All our volunteers must comply with our policies, and the requirements comprise detailed volunteer forms, providing two referees who submit written reports and the local council carries out Disclosure and Barring checks on our behalf.
Our main plans are to repair our riding arena as it floods during any heavy rain, repair our car park and purchase weight carrier horses for our Seniors. Our Gift Aid and fund-raising are geared to this.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Results for the 2021-22 financial year were a net loss of £10,275 (net loss of £9,721 had been reported in 2020-21). Despite the loss, the year was much less challenging than the previous one as WHR returned to a normal operation and had no necessity to rely on another emergency appeal. Due to timing reasons we only benefitted from recognition of three quarters of Giftaid - a fourth quarter would have brought us closer to break even accounted result. Cash position was stable throughout and 2022-23 will benefit from the extra quarter of Giftaid.
Donations and Legacies for the year totalled £74,263 and were lower than the previous year (£87,945) due to the reasons above. Subscriptions and funds raised from the canteen and uniforms for the year totalled £165,490 (2020-21 £133,599), as we reopened the site and were able to reactivate these controllable income streams. Expenses were £250,028 (2020-21 £231,265),the increase coming mostly from to higher vet bills.
RESERVES POLICY
Windsor Horse Rangers (WHR) current reserves policy has been set to ensure there is no disruption to activities in the event of an unforeseen increase in expenditure.
As part of developing the Reserves Policy for Windsor Horse Rangers, the Trustees have considered the value of funds that should be held back to cover areas of identified potential financial risk. The reserves policy is kept under regular review and Trustees base their decision on an evaluation of risk in order to set the appropriate free available reserves level. This amount is currently deemed to be in the region of £10k.
