COLDHARBOUR MILL TRUST LIMITED TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

(CONTINUED)

The Trustees present their report and the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2022. The trustees have adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” (FRS 102) in preparing the annual report and financial statements of the charity.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

The objectives of the Trust as set out in the Trust Deed are as follows:

The objectives of the Trust are as set out in the Articles and Memorandum of Association:

To provide for the advancement of public education (in particular in the woollen industry) by the provision of a public working museum comprising such exhibits or items as may from time to time be comprised in the Trust Fund and to preserve the same as a Collection, and to preserve Coldharbour Mill at Uffculme in the County of Devon for the public benefit as a building of historic and architectural value.

The trustees have had regard to the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit and believe this is achieved via the charity's objectives and activities.

Summary of the main activities in relation to the above objectives:

The Working Wool Museum is open to the public on Monday to Friday, April to October and all year round for pre-booked schools and group bookings. Visitors can see demonstrations based on wool yarn and cloth production using historic flat belt driven machinery. These products are available for purchase in the museum shop & online. Whenever possible some original production machinery is powered by the water wheel, the largest in the south of England. School visits complementary to the curriculum are very popular and are staged with the help of local volunteers. These visits are based on the social history of mill workers, especially child labour, with the aid of drama sessions, and on production methods used in wool production.

A group of volunteers from as far as Taunton and Plymouth run the steam engines on regular steam days encouraging a lot of interest from the public.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

Our Vision is to be innovative with our heritage in developing a relevant and resilient future for Coldharbour Mill: our Mission is to Educate and Inspire future Generations.

The past twelve months have presented Coldharbour Mill with a number of challenges and opportunities. Our thanks go to our team of staff and volunteers who have kept the mill running and undertaken a great deal of work behind the scenes. We also extend our thanks to MRH MS Ltd for their continued exemplary CEO services as well as the support of partner colleagues such as Hilary Clements from Woodquist Associates, amongst others. Our special thanks go to The Friends of Coldharbour Mill who continue to support the Mill, both financially and in the Mill’s work. In 2022 they have donated the generous sum of £8,581.

As might be expected, Coldharbour Mill has seen the impact of rising energy costs alongside the cost-of-living crisis. Our energy costs have almost tripled and alongside £45,000 of exceptional, unbudgeted, costs saw a very challenging year and forecast for the start of 2023. However, visitor number have returned to 83% of pre-pandemic levels, although groups and schools remained below 40% of the pre-pandemic level.

2022 Visitor Figures: Visitor Numbers: 4258 School pupils: 1352 Groups: 762

COLDHARBOUR MILL TRUST LIMITED TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

(CONTINUED)

It is important to emphasise that the Board has confidence in the viability of the Mill and the Trustees and MRH MS Ltd completed in-depth analysis and 40 point action plan to combat our financial challenges. Operational costs often exceed operating income, which remains the most challenging aspect of the mills finances. We have put plan in place to reduce costs and increase income, focussing on current sustainability alongside future development.

2022 saw another successful year for funding applications and this remains a key strength within our team. Their hard work saw almost £200,000 raised through grants and donations. Applying for significant grants also requires financial outlay and there were exceptional costs of over £15,000 in preparing a grant application of £500,000 from the Museums and Estates Development Fund Round Two. However, this resulted in a grant of £495,000 (awarded March 2023). We have also helped to raise funds for the wider community and Coldharbour Mill acted as umbrella organisation raising £10,000 for the Queens Diamond Jubilee for community groups to put on celebration events.

The potential for production of wool and textiles at the Mill has been significantly expanded through funding by The Scottish Power Foundation as part of the Heritage Production Skills Project. The grant of £76,000 has enabled us to employ a full-time Heritage Production Manager alongside providing training and skills acquisition for volunteers, educational placements and apprentices. This represents an exciting return of full-time production of wool and textiles at Coldharbour Mill.

In 2022 we were delighted to open a new Conservation Room, dedicated to Mrs Kathleen Sprague MBE and funded by South West Development and The Art Fund. This will enable the conservation of over 90 sample and pattern books dating back almost 200 years. The dedicated conservation room will enable textile and paper archives to be better managed and conserved for future generations.

On the Estate, the Natural Capital Challenge Fund and Devon County Council have continued to support our Rural Skills training program which has had 80 participants with more than 75% getting paid employment or regular volunteering roles. This is a real achievement which demonstrates the potential of the green spaces at Coldharbour Mill.

Our digital impact has continued to grow during 2022 and is a key marketing tool for the Mill. There has been significant engagement with our website which has been refreshed and continues to grow. A particular achievement was the addition of a virtual tour of the factory, enabling our remote visitors to experience the working machinery, as well as learning more about the Mill and its history. Our social media channels have seen increased activity and are vital for engaging with new audiences.

Strategically, we have built on the Coldharbour Vision 2032 which was launched in 2021. Coldharbour Creative will help us deliver Vision 2032 through the creation of working and selling spaces for artisans and craftspeople. Not only is this embedded in the history of making at the Mill, it will help to create a financially sustainable future for the Mill. Coldharbour Creative is complemented by the Estate Development Plan which will improve the accessibility of our green spaces as well as improving habitats for nature; alongside interpreting our industrial past. We have also developed plans for a new Visitor Centre on the ground floor of the Mill which will ensure the best possible experience for our visitors. It will also provide the all-important café and retail spaces that will create further financial stability as well as encouraging visitors to return to Coldharbour Mill on a regular basis. Bringing these threads together will ensure the long-term survival of Coldharbour Mill as well as providing accessible heritage for all our audiences, old and new.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Policy on reserves:

The Trust's policy is to try and build up an unrestricted reserve in order to be able to meet any unanticipated repairs to the buildings or equipment and to help to even out unexpected fluctuations in the Trust's income.

Sources of funds:

The Trust income is derived from the general public from ticket sales to visitors, purchases in the Mill shop and donations. Rental income from office and workshop space continues to provide regular revenue at the Mill. The Trust has received generous support from the Friends of Coldharbour Mill, and from grant funders, including the Heritage Lottery fund, for special projects. The Museum is also supported by the time given by volunteers to ensure the smooth running of the Mill and its production of goods for sale in our shop.

Expenditure

All expenditure during the year has related to the running costs of the Mill, including maintenance of the fabric of the buildings, costs associated with the employment of the permanent staff and the administration of the Mill. The expenditure enables the Mill to continue to operate as a heritage centre and tourist attraction.

Conclusion

The process of rebuilding the finances of the Trust continues and is always at the forefront of the Trustees’ aim. The objective to improve the financial position is being developed and plans are being made to seek finances to assist and enhance the development of the museum and the site into a significant textile heritage centre of national importance.

COLDHARBOUR MILL TRUST LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

1. Summary of significant accounting policies

(a) General information and basis of preparation

Coldharbour Mill Trust Limited is a private company limited by guarantee and does not have a share capital. The company is a registered charity in England within the United Kingdom. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £10 per member of the charity.

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. 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) issued on 16 July 2014 (as updated through Update Bulletin 1 published on 2 February 2016), the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.

The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain items at fair value. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £.

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.

(b) Funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.

Designated funds comprise unrestricted funds that have been set aside by the trustees for particular purposes. The aim and use of each designated fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the charity for particular purposes. The cost of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.

(c) Income recognition

All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when the charity is legally entitled to the income after any performance conditions have been met, the amount can be measured reliably and it is probable that the income will be received.

For donations to be recognised the charity will have been notified of the amounts and the settlement date in writing. If there are conditions attached to the donation and this requires a level of performance before entitlement can be obtained then income is deferred until those conditions are fully met or the fulfilment of those conditions is within the control of the charity and it is probable that they will be fulfilled.

No amount is included in the financial statements for volunteer time in line with the SORP (FRS 102). Further detail is given in the Trustees’ Annual Report.

10

COLDHARBOUR MILL TRUST LIMITED

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

(c) Income recognition (continued)

Income from trading activities includes income earned from fundraising events and trading activities to raise funds for the charity. Income is received in exchange for supplying goods and services in order to raise funds and is recognised when entitlement has occurred.

Income from government and other grants are recognised at fair value when the charity has entitlement after any performance conditions have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. If entitlement is not met then these amounts are deferred.

Investment income is earned through holding assets for investment purposes such as shares. It includes dividends and interest. Where it is not practicable to identify investment management costs incurred within a scheme with reasonable accuracy the investment income is reported net of these costs. It is included when the amount can be measured reliably. Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method and dividend income is recognised as the charity’s right to receive payment is established.

Gifts in kind are recognised when receivable and are included at fair value. They are not deferred over the life of the asset

(d) Expenditure recognition

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Expenditure is recognised where there is a legal or constructive obligation to make payments to third parties, it is probable that the settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. It is categorised under the following headings:

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as an expense against the activity for which expenditure arose.

(e) Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost (or deemed cost) or valuation less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. Cost includes costs directly attributable to making the asset capable of operating as intended.

Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets, at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset on a systematic basis over its expected useful life as follows:

Freehold property 2% straight line Equipment 15% straight line No depreciation has been provided on freehold land.

(f) Investments

Investments are recognised initially at fair value which is normally the transaction price excluding transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at fair value with changes recognised in ‘net gains / (losses) on investments’ in the SoFA if the shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise be measured reliably.

(g) Debtors and creditors receivable / payable within one year

Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in expenditure.

11

COLDHARBOUR MILL TRUST LIMITED NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

(h) Cash

Cash and cash equivalents are basic financial assets and include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts.

(i) Loans and borrowings

Loans and borrowings are initially recognised at the transaction price including transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at amortised cost using the effective interest rate method, less impairment. If an arrangement constitutes a finance transaction it is measured at present value.

(j) Leases

Rentals payable and receivable under operating leases are charged to the SoFA on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.

(k) Employee benefits

The charity operates a defined contribution plan for the benefit of its employees. Contributions are expensed as they become payable.

(l) Tax

The charity is an exempt charity within the meaning of schedule 3 of the Charities Act 2011 and is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes.

(e) Going concern

Following the global impact of 'Covid-19', at the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
