THE BELTEX SHEEP SOCIETY LIMITED
Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2021
The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021. 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).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
The objects of the Society are:
-
To promote the science and practice of agriculture by encouragement, promotion and improvement of the breeding of Beltex Sheep and the maintenance of the purity of the breed in the United Kingdom.
-
To encourage, promote and improve the breeding of Beltex Sheep to ensure the preservation of the breed for the public benefit.
-
To undertake research on sheep breeding and matters relating thereto and to disseminate the useful results of research for the public benefit.
The main activities of the Society are to maintain a register of members' pedigree Beltex Sheep in the United Kingdom and to promote the breed at agricultural shows and events.
The Society continues to improve services offered to members, and continues to encourage production of lean meat to fulfil consumer demand and the public health objective. We have referred to the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aims and objectives and in planning our future activities. In particular, the Directors consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set.
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
The Society's membership and registrations remains constant from the previous year, the details of which are included in the office bearers' reports to the membership. Through continuous promotion, the breed is now recognised as one of the leading terminal sires used in the UK, and in turn members are gaining this acknowledgement in the show rings. Beltex sired lambs continue to attain top accolades and prices at Primestock shows with many commercial farmers turning to the breed to improve carcases. The Society is performing well with this increase of interest and gives good value to the membership.
The Society introduced DNA Testing for stock sires for all lambs Birth Notified / Registered in 2019 onwards, looking to safeguard the breed by making sure it carries the myostatin (double muscle) gene that is distinctive for the Beltex breed, at the same time we are collecting other genetic markers which may become useful in the future. Other data collected at the time is a parentage profile and Scrapie genotyping.
Continuing the safeguarding of the breed the Society has now introduced DNA testing for flushing ewes (embryos used for transplanting into recipient ewes), again making sure that the animal carries the myostatin gene.
Since the beginning of 2021 after Brexit, the rules changed for exports to not only Europe, but also Northern Ireland the animal must be Group One genotype or from a Scrapie Monitored flock, which the breeder can find out before other tests have to be carried out.

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2021
FINANCIAL REVIEW
The Society's financial position at the end of the financial period remains sound. All funds held are available for the wide-ranging running of the Society.
The Society's policy is to hold reserves sufficient to cover at least a year's operating costs, in case the sheep industry or the breed fall on lean times.
Society membership continues to remain steady, which influences the number sheep registrations. Many new members initially have a small flock which increases year on year.
Advertising and promotion costs have reduced this year mainly due to the cancellation of shows and events being cancelled because of COVID-19 restrictions. The busiest time of the year is between May - October when travelling to the major agricultural shows, events and Society breed sales across the country. The program for Breed Promotion Officer is agreed by the Directors in the Society's budget for the coming year.
The Council Members continually review business and operational risks which the charity faces which in turn enables regular reports to be produced so that necessary recommendations can be made to lessen these risks.
In the 2021 budget it was agreed to plan as if the Society would have a usual year of events and shows and plan accordingly, at the time COVID-19 restrictions were still in place, but were hopeful that things may change as the year progresses.
The Directors do not at present consider that there are any significant financial risks facing the Society.
FUTURE PLANS
The Society aims to continue to increase its membership numbers and its pedigree sheep register in accordance with its objectives.
The Society continues to attend and have a noticeable presence at major shows and agricultural events to promote the merits of the breed, this is done by the Breed Promotion Officer with assistance from the regional clubs. The Society has tasked a small group to further promote the breed with the younger generation known as Beltex Young Breeders, this falls into two age groups under 16's and over 16's.
The diary for the coming year was planned and agreed as if no COVID-19 restrictions apply. If shows do go ahead, the Society will risk assess attendance. However, the Society is still promoting the breed online and instead of attending major shows will again hold online shows for the benefit of the members.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document

16. FUNDS HELD BY CLUBS
Funds totalling £35,681 (PY: £27,560) are held by a number of Beltex sheep breeder clubs in Britain and Ireland. The society has no control over these funds whilst these clubs remain active and so the amount has not been recognised in the balance sheet. The club rules, which have been approved by the society, stipulate that the funds will transfer to the society in the event of a club winding up.
