UNIT INSTITUTE FUND, COMMANDO TRAINING CENTRE ROYAL MARINES (UIF CTCRM)

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2021

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 January 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

Objectives and aims

The fund exists for the collective benefit of the Unit as a whole, with particular emphasis on benefits to the Recruits, Marines and Junior Ranks, in order to provide the appropriate facilities to enhance the military and individual skills of all its personnel.

The objects of the Fund are for the promotion of efficiency of the Armed Forces of the Crown by the provision and support of facilities and activities for the efficiency and well-being of service personnel.

The fund carries out these objects by:

Providing and assisting service personnel to more effectively perform their roles within the Armed Forces of the Crown by providing and supporting social activities, sporting and adventure training activities and associated facilities. This assistance enables service personnel to face the challenges and danger associated with military service by developing and maintaining their teamwork; skills; fitness; confidence, character, spirit, attitude and morale. As a result the fund promotes the efficiency of the Armed Forces of the Crown by enhancing the capability of the Royal Marines to undertake the roles demanded of it including the defence of the United Kingdom and its interests.

Income to the Charity is derived from various grants, subscriptions, surpluses from the regimental shop and laundrette venture, interest and occasional donations. The laundrette was adversely affected by the Covid pandemic as it was not possible to offer service washing. The regimental shops turnover was comparable to the previous year despite the pandemic. Income has decreased this year due to to the reduction in laundrette income and Gainshare. The charity received Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme grants which helped retain employees. Expenditure on amenities decreased as many events were cancelled due to the pandemic although grants paid remained at a similar to the previous year. Grants were paid to many groups and individuals to pursue activities that have enhanced military efficiency, improved morale and enhanced the general welfare of the beneficiaries of the fund.

In allocating these grants the Management has considered the impact on the fund/account and where necessary has designated the amounts shown in the accounts to be carried over to the following year which represent the amounts allocated but not yet spent.

The activities of the charity in the form of social and occasional sporting events are accounted for by means of designated and restricted funds. The Management find that by using these funds to analyse the income and expenditure, it can control the various projects with more ease for current and future charitable objects.

The summary of income and expenditure relating to the various funds can be found at note 22.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2021

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Grant Making Policy

The policy of the Trustee is to manage the Fund's affairs with prudence taking into consideration the long term as well as a short term view of the fund, whilst expending the income in accordance with the purpose laid down in the Fund's Charter. Grants to groups and individuals are made within the bounds of the charter.

Fund meetings are held regularly and at least once per term, where the management committee will consider bids and applications to the fund. Any bids falling outside the bounds of the charter are not normally approved unless they are within the spirit of the aim of the fund charter.

Public Benefit

The Charity exists to support the military efficiency of the Royal Marines. By improving morale and Esprit de Corps amongst members of the Corps family the Charity directly contributes to the quality of the Royal Marines as a key component of the nation's Armed Forces and thereby to the defence of the nation. The Trustee has complied with the duty in the Charities Act 2011 and given regard to the Charity Commission.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Financial position

There has been a steady income and expenditure flow within the accounting period despite the Covid pandemic and the fund is operating as a going concern with sufficient funds available for the day to day and future activities. Total income for the year amounted to £441,203 (2020: £566,030). This income was mainly from the shop and laundrette activity and grants to the Charity. Total resources expended amounted to £459,276 (2020: £505,233); the total fund balance carried forward at the end of the year amounted to £682,365.

The Trustee is satisfied with the performance of the fund over the last accounting period and considers that expenditure has been within the Charter of the Fund.

Reserves policy

The Trustee's policy is to maintain a sufficient level of reserves within investments, current balance £322,903, to cover a redundancy contingency for the civilian staff of six months wages, £40,000 and sufficient to cover the laundrette equipment rental liability, currently £17,218; however, this liability could increase back to £270,000 if a new contract is signed in Sep 2021. This policy provides a stable base for the Charity's continuing activities. General reserves are normally only maintained at a level which is sufficient to meet the running costs of the Charity, a working capital of £40,000 is maintained to meet this requirement and the remaining reserves are used to make grants in accordance with the Charity's objectives on a regular basis.

At 31 January 2021 the fund had free reserves of £66k. This is calculated as follows:

£'000
Net assets 682
Less:
Restricted funds
(2)
Designated funds (166)
Functional fixed assets (34)
Investments as noted above (322)
Stock (110)
Add:
Laundrette equipment liability
17
66

This indicates that the fund had excess reserves of £26k at 31 January 2021. This is a reduction on the surplus at 31 January 2020 (£40K). The trustee continues to consider options to reduce the level of excess reserves including the need to increase retained reserves to offset expected future cuts in income.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JANUARY 2021

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Financial Risk Management

The Trustee's view is that a good level of reserves and the low administrative costs of the Charity mean that its exposure to risk is very limited. The Trustee, as a matter of principle, does not accept any obligations on behalf of the Charity without having the funds immediately available to meet those obligations.

The internal checks and controls governed by Service Regulations ensure that regular and random checks are applied to the Charity to safeguard its assets and grant making policy.

Investment Policy

The Trustee has the power to invest in such assets as he sees fit within the restrictions of the Investment Policy laid down in Service Fund Regulations Chapter 8. Currently the investments are held within a managed account with the RNRMC's Investment portfolio with Cazenove Capital Management. The Trustee's aim is to invest all funds surplus to immediate requirements in interest bearing accounts to maximise the returns.

FUTURE PLANS

The charitable objectives for the forthcoming year are to:

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing document

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes an unincorporated charity.

The Governing Document, in conjunction with the Charter details the aim, purpose, roles and responsibilities and objectives; ensuring the correct governance and management within the Unit Institute Fund. The Charter is to be reviewed annually by the UIF Committee, last review date 31 January 2021.

The account of the Commando Training Centre Royal Marines (CTCRM) Unit Institute Fund was created to provide amenities, entertainment and facilities for the personnel of the Unit not otherwise provided for by the public purse and also to promote military efficiency and well being. The Commanding Officer Support Wing at CTCRM is the sole Managing Trustee in line with current Service Regulations. The Trustee is therefore selected by appointment from within the Royal Marines and will generally change at regular intervals. Trustees are inducted by appointment and will have received training in account management in accordance with Service Fund Regulations and whose duties are laid down in Queens Regulations.

The Trustee has delegated the day to day running of the account to nominated representatives from within the unit organisation. Fund committee meetings are held on a frequent basis and have been structured to provide a wide representation of personnel to represent the best interests of the Charity. However, all decisions are minuted and approved by the Trustee as laid down within the charter.

Risk management

The Management has considered the major risks to which the charity is exposed. These risks have been reviewed and the management have established systems and procedures to manage them. The Trustee considers by reviewing the accounts monthly, the management are able to manage and review the income over expenditure.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF UNIT INSTITUTE FUND, COMMANDO TRAINING CENTRE ROYAL MARINES (UIF CTCRM)

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Unit Institute Fund, Commando Training Centre Royal Marines (UIF CTCRM)

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Unit Institute Fund, Commando Training Centre Royal Marines (UIF CTCRM) (the Trust) for the year ended 31 January 2021.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent examiner's statement

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a registered member of ICAEW which is one of the listed bodies.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  2. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

The value of services provided by volunteers is not incorporated into these financial statements.

Where goods or services are provided to the charity as a donation that would normally be purchased from suppliers, this contributions is included in the financial statements at an estimate based on the value of the contribution to the charity.

Expenditure

Irrecoverable vat

All resources expended are classified under activity headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the category of resources expended for which it was incurred.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Tangible fixed assets Motor vehicles - 10% on cost

Individual fixed assets costing £500 or more are capitalised at cost.

Fixed asset investments

Investments are stated at market value inclusive of accrued income as at the balance sheet date. The Statement of Financial Activities includes the net gains and losses arising on revaluation and disposals throughout the year.

All gains and losses are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities as they arise. Realised gains and losses on investments are calculated as the difference between the market value at the end of the year and opening market value or purchase date if later.

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.

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

Hire purchase and leasing commitments

Assets obtained under hire purchase contracts or finance leases are capitalised in the Balance Sheet. Those held under hire purchase contracts are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. Those held under finance leases are depreciated over their estimated useful lives or the lease term, whichever is shorter.

The interest element of these obligations is charged to the Statement of Financial Activities over the relevant period. The capital element of the future payments is treated as a liability.

22. MOVEMENT IN FUNDS - continued

Business Development Fund

Business development Fund - established within the UIF in November 17, in order to facilitate larger projects for the improvement of the UIF capability to support the Unit; shop refurbishment, laundry improvement, replacement transit van, and ultimately a self-sustaining fund that can meet any shortfalls from the changes in Gainshare allocation in the future.

Function Room Refurbishment Fund

The Function Room Refurbishment Fund has been raised as a Restricted Fund within the UIF, on receipt of a kind charitable donation from Lt Col P H Scarf RM (Rtd). This money was donated to the Unit to help to fund the refurbishment work for the main reception rooms at CTCRM. Lt Col Scarf RM placed no naming constraints for the refurbished rooms, however it was requested that his donation was linked to either RM Bickleigh or HMS Bulwark (R08). Further funding for the project is going to requested through RNRMC and TRMC, as well as Unit contributions.

Events Fund

Events Fund - established within the UIF in 2020 for the end of term band concerts held on camp. The ticket sales for these events will be used to pay associated expenses of these events. This event fund is intended to continue in order that the end of term concerts are cost neutral to the camp.

23. RELATED PARTY DISCLOSURES

Ministry of Defence

The charity works closely with the Ministry of Defence (MOD). Some of the charity's personnel are employed by the MOD and the charity operates from MOD premises for which no charge is incurred. The amount of time spent by MOD personnel or the amount of MOD premises space utilised by the charity is not discrete from other MOD responsibilities. Therefore no value has been recognised as donated services within these financial statements for the use of MOD personnel and premises.

24. ULTIMATE CONTROLLING PARTY

The charity is under the control of the trustee.
