Fly Navy Heritage Trust Limited Trustee Directors’ Report For the Year Ended 31 December 2020

The Trustee Directors (“Trustees”) present their report and accounts for the year ended 31 December 2020. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in Note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the Charity’s governing document, applicable law and the requirement of the 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 (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019).

References and Administrative Details

Administrative information is given in a separate section at the front of these accounts.

Structure Governance and Management

The Fly Navy Heritage Trust was registered with the Charity Commission and is constituted and regulated by a Declaration of Trust dated 16 July 1991. In December 2006 the Trust transferred its assets and undertakings, in accordance with the incorporation agreement dated 31 December 2006, to the Fly Navy Heritage Trust Limited. This company, limited by guarantee, (company registration number 05971284) was incorporated on 18 October 2006; it is registered with the Charity Commission (charity registration number 01117272). In accordance with the governing document, the current trustees may appoint additional trustees and have absolute discretion and unrestricted powers to invest trust monies. Trustees may serve for up to three years before requiring re-appointment.

Induction and training of trustees

New Trustees are inducted and trained using information obtained from various sources, including the Charity Commission, attendance as required at specialist courses and by personal briefings.

Organisational structure

A full list of trustees and directors (all trustees are also directors of the company) who have served since 31 December 2019 is shown on page 1. The Trustees meet at least three times a year to discuss and review the current and future position of the Charity. The Charity occupies office space within MOD owned buildings within RNAS Yeovilton and now, in accordance with the Trustees’ directive to increase the fundraising capacity of the charity, employs twelve staff members, six of them part time.

Related parties

Naval Aviation Limited (NA Ltd) (company registration number 07052646) is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Charity and exists as the trading operation of the Charity. Activities include sales of aircraft displays, sales of souvenir merchandise and the operation of the Hawker Sea Fury T20 (G-RNHF) and the de Havilland Sea Vixen FAW2 XP924 (G-CVIX).

The Charity also had a close affinity with the Royal Navy Historic Flight (RNHF), a unit whose purpose was to preserve the Royal Navy’s aviation heritage by maintaining in flying condition a small number of other notable British naval aircraft and displaying them before the public. However, the RNHF was disbanded on 31 March 2019, which will affect the future of the Trust as discussed below.

Charitable donations made by the Charity have supported the activity of both the RNHF and NA Ltd. One of the trustees of the Charity, Commodore N Tindall RN, is a senior member of the management team of the RNHF. RNHF aircraft airworthiness is regulated by the MOD and NA Ltd aircraft airworthiness by the Civil Aviation Authority.

Key management personnel

Remuneration for key management personnel is set by a Remuneration Committee comprising the Trust Chairman, Deputy Chairman and the Financial Trustee (an accountant). In setting salary levels, market comparators for similar roles within the charities sector are taken into consideration. There is also the need to ensure that key posts are attractive to personnel having the detailed knowledge, experience and skills demanded of both the charity and directing an aircraft operating company.

Risk management

The Trustees routinely assess the risks to which the Charity is exposed to ensure that systems and procedures are in place to mitigate exposure in these areas. A Risk Register is held in the Charity’s Business Plan and is reviewed at Management Group level and at each Trustees’ meeting. Risk mitigation actions are included as part of the charity’s annual Work Plan.

Objectives

The Charity’s objectives are set out in the Memorandum of Association as follows:

This can be summed up as: To Educate, Inspire and Remember; this is articulated as a single aim as follows: Inspiring future generations by bringing together the aircraft, people and the story of flying from ships.

Activities

The Chief Executive Officer, Commodore Jock Alexander, joined the Trust in February 2016, following which the Charity was re-branded as ‘Navy Wings’ in July of the same year. The aim, which has not changed, remains to reach as wide an audience as possible with a refreshed look, supported by a continually evolving web-site and a wide collection of aircraft. The core Flight consists of the ex-Royal Navy Historic Flight (RNHF) aircraft which have now been gifted to FNHT. This is supported by an Associate Collection, which reaches out to individuals in the UK who operate their own, vintage naval aircraft and invites them to join the Navy Wings Associate Collection story. This has been a huge success and there are now 20 aircraft as part of that collection, ranging from a WW1 Bristol Scout, through to a Sea King helicopter from the 1990’s. Importantly, the Trust does not raise money for the Associates, but rather they join a club of like-minded people which enable Navy Wings to tell a more comprehensive story about our heritage.

Most management activity this year was spent dealing with the fall-out from Covid 19 and the subsequent cancellation of all fund-raising activity, including Air Shows. Work also continued in tandem for the transfer of the RNHF aircraft into the Trust, which was achieved on 1 January 2021. The Deed of Transfer, having finally gained Parliamentary approval, was formally signed at the end of December, along with a Memorandum of Understanding agreed with the Royal Navy, which under-pins the future relationship between the two parties. It is now planned to let the Navy Wings Heritage Flight appear on the display circuit in 2021, although as this being written it remains unclear whether Government plans will allow large crowds to gather in 2021.

Fly Navy Heritage Trust Limited Trustee Directors’ Report For the Year Ended 31 December 2020

In 2020, the Trust clearly felt the impact of Covid 19 and decisions were taken very early in the crisis to ameliorate the situation and protect the Trust. Trustees were informed in early April of the new Aim for the year as follows:

‘To achieve the right balance between achieving savings at this crucial time, to ensure we remain viable, against the need to emerge from lockdown in the best position we can to capitalise on our increased on-line presence, with a fully integrated and flexible team who can maximise emerging opportunities as they arise’.

To facilitate this, of the 14 staff at the time, 5 involved with event planning and routine admin were placed under furlough and the remaining 9 were all placed on a three-day week with concomitant pay reductions. An emergency budget was then produced in April, which projected the Trust would end the year about cost neutral. By Mid-summer we were able to recover 3 staff from furlough to part time working, as our strategy in the revised Aim (above) was starting to pay off with increased on-line sales. In addition, we launched a weekly lottery in May, with the aim of building an alternate source of income to the tune of about £50k per annum by Year 3. This remained the status quo until October, when furloughed members were brought back once the CJRS ceased to operate. These measures, coupled with further savings eked out in the summer, saved substantial amounts of capital and meanwhile the investment in on-line presence and retail paid dividends, with month to month sales up by over 150% since May. The situation was further ameliorated by the award of a Grant of £280,400 from the Culture Recovery Fund (CRF), which covered most outgoings between Oct 2020 and Apr 2021. In a further significant development, the Trust was selected by a private aviation enthusiast to receive a four year cycle of Grants in order to secure the future of our aircraft Fleet. This amounts to £5M over the period and we have already been able to purchase a T6 Harvard training aircraft (thus saving on future training hire costs) and also the Wasp helicopter which was on loan to us, but for sale at the same time. We are actively seeking to purchase spare engines for the Swordfish and are looking at every other opportunity to build in resilience for the future.

All of our planned money raising events, including dinners, air shows and Supporters days were cancelled, but Corporate donations were still received despite us being unable to offer anything in return.

Volunteers and Sponsorship

The Trust and Naval Aviation Ltd, together trading as ‘Navy Wings’, continues with its well established Volunteering Policy, which concentrates on a critical nucleus who provide the core of this support. This network of volunteers is drawn from the Navy Wings Supporter base who provide their time free in order to promote, develop and support various activities that aim to deliver required funds to continue operation. Volunteer support is invaluable and is particularly useful in sales of merchandise and aircraft support operations. The latter encompasses aircraft stores, documentation and admin support alongside supervised aircraft mechanical engineering tasks. All volunteers receive induction and training and, as necessary, health and safety briefings and workplace clothing. In addition, we have a small team of high profile Supporters who volunteer to promote ‘Navy Wings’ and the heritage aircraft as ‘Ambassadors’.

Corporate Support

The Trust continues to enjoy support from some key players in industry, not only from a financial perspective, but also from their knowledge of the aviation industry and in particular, heritage aircraft. Despite the severe limitations imposed by Covid 19 and our inability to provide anything in return, all of our Corporate partners remained on-side and made their regular donations. As we remain limited in what we can offer in 2021, we are currently reviewing the Corporate Package, and are in continual dialogue with our partners about what they expect.

Fly Navy Heritage Trust Limited Trustee Directors’ Report For the Year Ended 31 December 2020

Grant making policy to Naval Aviation Ltd (NAL)

The Trustees consider the needs of our sole beneficiary (NAL) to ensure that all support is provided in accordance with the objects of the charity. As part of the overall business planning for Navy Wings and NAL, the intention and plans are for Naval Aviation Ltd to trade towards being profitable, the key drivers will be the diversification and growth of income streams such as growing the online merchandising, the lottery income, as well as generating income from aircraft. As alluded to above, NAL was not able to conduct much display flying during the year with Covid 19 and the cancellation of every planned air show; this has contributed to losses due to lack of display fees and accompanying sales of merchandise on the ground. That said, traction is gradually building with merchandise along with the recently launched Navy Wings lottery and the plan is to build on this, along with display income and paid for flights, to produce a profit in Naval Aviation.

Achievements and Performance

The principal achievement of the Charity was to successfully raise enough funds during the Covid 19 crisis, to ensure we emerged in the best possible position once social distancing and other Covid measures are removed. We conducted no display flying at all in 2020 and our only flight time was to keep the minimum hours required for crew training at our home base. This also saved considerable sums of money from a combination of insuring the aircraft for ground incidents only and a negligible use of aviation fuel. Our financial achievements through retail have already been covered and, when the CRF Grant is also accounted for, we finished the FY in a stronger position than we could have hoped for. We had planned to return to a full flying programme in 2021, but we are already seeing a rolling cancellation of Air Shows for this year and this has been compounded by the loss of our Sea Fury T20 in an accident on Wednesday 28 April. Both the crew escaped with minor injuries and we now await the Insurance Company decision on her future.

Reserves policy

Since there can be no guarantee of the quantum of future income streams, the Trustees’ policy is to retain funds in excess of the current needs to meet unanticipated expenditure which is an inherent feature of maintaining historic aircraft. In addition, Trustees continue to ensure that available free reserves are adequate to cover in excess of 3 months operating costs of £123,803. At 31st December 2020 the group held £204,544 of free reserves and excess reserves to provide future funding for aircraft.

Review of financial position

From a financial point of view, 2020, as explained above was a difficult year to manage and forecast as a result of Covid-19. Budgets were harder to forecast with the uncertainty of when restrictions would ease and this inevitably made it difficult to plan what events could be held if any.

Total consolidated income included £246,551 of restricted income (33.2%) and £495,715 of unrestricted income (66.8%). Restricted income has increased as a result of the Culture Recovery fund received and Royal Navy transitional funding relating to the transfer of the aircraft (both of which were mentioned above).

NA Ltd retail sales (covering merchandising and aircraft displays) provided £98,315 of income. Merchandising was slightly below budget however it continues to grow year on year and indeed was 17% higher than 2019. As mentioned earlier in the report, no air shows were able to operate during the year leading to no income from display fees.

As a result of the global pandemic, the events which are usually run throughout the year in FNHT were also not able to go ahead as planned meaning only £91,253 was raised in the year.


Page 5

Fly Navy Heritage Trust Limited Trustee Directors’ Report For the Year Ended 31 December 2020

The group was able to minimise expenditure during the global pandemic with total consolidated expenditure in 2020 totalling £882,882, a reduction of £97,020 on the prior year.

The Group held £96,409 of restricted funds at the year end and £304,542 in unrestricted funds. Cash and short term investments totalled £199,304 at 31 December 2020 compared with £401,753 at the previous year end. Capital expenditure of £30,554 was made in the year.

Plans for future periods

The Charity has clearly had to review its ten-year rolling plan based on the effects of Covid, but more importantly for us, the injection of new cash in the form of the CRF Grant and the four year investment of £5M. The Business Plan is being reviewed again to reflect these changes, which is under-pinned by a new Risk Register. Heritage aircraft are expensive to maintain and require regular, extensive overhauls of their engines along with the provision of back-up engines and spares. Although the short-term pressure to raise money has been removed, we are still planning to double our income within the next five years and the new weekly Lottery is already proving to be a success as a future income stream. The Trust continues to plan for a sustainable programme and anticipates eventually operating a core flying fleet of one Swordfish, one Sea Fury (depending on the status of the T20 post crash), the Wasp helicopter and one jet (either the Sea Vixen or Seahawk) on an annual basis. We are also investigating the possibility of buying another Aircraft type following a £2m capital donation but have not yet formalised any plans.

Impact of Covid-19 and going concern

In light of the impact of Covid-19 the trustees have given careful consideration to the cashflow forecasts of the charity covering the period of at least twelve months from the date of signing the accounts. They are satisfied that the charity has sufficient working capital resources in place over that period, and therefore the accounts are drawn up on the going concern basis.

Auditors

The auditors, Albert Goodman LLP are deemed to be reappointed under section 487(2) of the Companies Act 2006.

Small company provisions

This report has been prepared in accordance with the small companies regime under section 487(2) of the Companies Act 2006.

Fly Navy Heritage Trust Limited Trustee Directors’ Report For the Year Ended 31 December 2020

Statement of trustees’ responsibilities

The trustees (who are directors of the Fly Navy Heritage Trust Limited for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustee Directors’ Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and the group and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure of the charitable group for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable 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 the group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities

The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company’s website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

Statement as to disclosure to our auditors

In so far as the trustees are aware at the time of approving our trustees’ annual report:

Approved by the Trustees on 30 September 2021 and signed on their behalf by:

Rear Admiral T A Cunningham CBE Chairman and Trustee

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of the Fly Navy Heritage Trust Limited for the year ended 31 December 2020, which comprise the consolidated Statement of Financial Activities, the consolidated and parent charitable company Balance Sheets, the consolidated and parent charitable company Statement of Cash Flows, and Notes to the Financial Statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, including Financial Reporting Standard 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the group and parent charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Trustee’s use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the original financial statements were authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Trustees’ Report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.


Page 8

Fly Navy Heritage Trust Limited Independent Auditors' Report to the Trustees and Members For the Year Ended 31 December 2020

In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the group and parent charitable company and their environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Directors’ Report included within the Trustee Directors’ Report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees Responsibilities (set out on page 6), the trustees (who are also the directors of the parent charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the group and parent charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the parent charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.


Page 9

Fly Navy Heritage Trust Limited Independent Auditors' Report to the Trustees and Members For the Year Ended 31 December 2020

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of Independent Auditors.

The extend to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities including fraud

Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, was as follows:

We assessed the susceptibility of the company’s financial statements to material misstatement including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur by:

To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we:


Page 10

Fly Navy Heritage Trust Limited Independent Auditors' Report to the Trustees and Members For the Year Ended 31 December 2020

In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to;

There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of noncompliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any.

Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involved deliberate concealment or collusion.

A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at www.grc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the group and parent charitable company’s members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the group and parent charitable company’s members and trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the group and parent charitable company and the group and parent charitable company’s members as a body and the parent charitable company’s trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed

Fly Navy Heritage Trust Limited Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 December 2020

1 Accounting Policies

The principal accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:

1.1 Basis of accounting

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

Fly Navy Heritage Trust Limited meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s) and all amounts are presented in £ sterling.

These financial statements consolidate the results of the Charity and its wholly owned subsidiary, Naval Aviation Limited, on a line by line basis. The “Group” heading within the balance sheet refers to the consolidated accounts of the Fly Navy Heritage Trust Limited and Naval Aviation Limited.

In the parent company financial statements the investment in the trading subsidiary is accounted for at cost less impairment.

A separate Statement of Financial Activities or income and expenditure account, for the Charity itself has not been presented because the Charity has taken advantage of the exemptions afforded by Section 408 of the Companies Act 2006.

There are no material uncertainties about the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Trustees have considered the implication of the Covid-19 pandemic on the operations of the charity. Grant and donation income has been received that is sufficient to cover the temporary reductions in fundraising and trading income. Taking into account all reasonable circumstances, the trustees believe that the charity remains a going concern and no adjustments to the accounts are necessary.

1.2 Legal status of the Trust

The Trust is a company limited by guarantee and has no share capital. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the charity.

The company is incorporated in England and Wales and the company registered office is detailed on page 1, reference and administration details.

1.3

Income

Income from grants and donations is recognised in the year in which they are receivable when there is evidence of entitlement, receipt is probable and the amount can be reliably measured.

For legacies, entitlement is taken as the earlier of the date on which either: the charity is aware that probate has been granted, the estate has been finalised and notification has been made by the executor(s) to the Trust that a distribution will be made, or when a distribution is received from the estate. Receipt of a legacy, in whole or in part, is only considered probable when the amount can be measured reliably and the charity has been notified of the executor’s intention to make a distribution.

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 a treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material.


Page 15

Fly Navy Heritage Trust Limited Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 December 2020

Income from other trading income is included in the period in which the group is entitled to receipt, it is probable that economic benefits will flow to the entity and the amount can be reliably measured.

1.4 Donated goods and services

Donated services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably.

On receipt, donated services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt. Income is recognised within grants, donations and legacies and expenditure within costs of raising funds and charitable activities.

1.5

Interest receivable

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the Bank.

1.6 Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT

Resources expended are recognised on the accruals basis to match the period in which the expenditure was incurred.

Costs of raising funds are expenditure incurred in generating the trading subsidiary funds and in generating the charity fundraising event income funds.

Charitable activities expenditure comprises costs incurred in by the charity in the delivery of its charitable purposes for beneficiaries including grants payable to other institutions.

Grants payable are at the discretion of the Trustees. They are in furtherance of the charity’s objects, to support and promote the efficiency of aviation in the Royal Navy and to educate the members of the public in the history, traditions and exploits of the Fleet Air Arm and the history of Royal Naval Aviation.

1.7 Operating leases

Rental charges are charged on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

1.8 Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of charity.

Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the Trust’s work or for specific artistic projects being undertaken by the Trust.


Page 16

Fly Navy Heritage Trust Limited Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 December 2020

1.9 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Aircraft are initially recorded at cost and are then revalued at the year end. The Trustees review the assets for impairment each year.

Computer equipment is stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost or valuation less estimated residual value of each asset over its expected useful life as follows:

Plant and machinery 3 years straight line Office equipment 3 years straight line Computer equipment 33% reducing balance

1.10 Investments

Investments in equity shares which are publicly traded or where the fair value can be measured reliably are initially measured at fair value, with changes in fair value recognised in profit or loss. Investments in equity shares which are not publicly traded and where fair value cannot be measured reliably are measured at cost less impairment.

1.11 Stock

Stock consists of merchandise for resale and is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after due regard for obsolete and slow moving stocks.

1.11 Debtors

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

1.12 Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and cash 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.

Creditors are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

1.14 Defined contribution pension

A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which fixed contributions are paid into a pension fund and the company has no legal or constructive obligation to pay further contributions even if the fund does not hold sufficient assets to pay all employees the benefits relating to employee service in the current and prior periods.

Contributions to defined contribution plans are recognised as staff pension expense through the profit and loss when they are due.

1.15 Taxation

As a registered charity, the company is not liable to corporation tax or capital gains tax to the extent that its income and gains are applicable to charitable purposes only. Value Added Tax is not recoverable by the company, and is therefore included in the relevant costs in the Statement of Financial Activities. The charity subsidiary is able to recover Value Added Tax and therefore it is not included within the relevant costs in the Statement of Financial Activities.


Page 17

Fly Navy Heritage Trust Limited Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 31 December 2020

1.16 Financial instruments

The charity only holds basic financial instruments as defined by FRS 102. The financial assets and financial liabilities of the company are as follows;

Financial assets – trade and other debtors, accrued income, amounts owed by group undertakings and other debtors are basic financial instruments, and are debt instruments measured at amortised cost. Prepayments are not financial instruments.

Cash at bank – classified as a basic financial instrument and is measured at face value.

Financial liabilities – trade creditors, amounts owed to group undertakings, bank loans, accrued expenses and other creditors are financial instruments, and are measured at amortised cost. Taxation and social security and corporation tax creditors are not included in the financial instruments disclosure definition.

The Trustees had designated funds of £200k in 2017 towards the retention of an engineer and storeman for the Sea Vixen with a view to ensuring that should the parts come available there could be the possibility that the Sea Vixen will get back to flying status. The amount designated has been brought back into general unrestricted this repair work is now unlikely to happen. The revaluation reserve is the difference between the fair value and original cost of the aircraft.
