TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
The Trustees present their annual report together with the unaudited financial statements of Ditchling Museum of Art + Craft ("the Trust", "the Company" or the “Museum”) for the period 1 April 2020 to 31 March 2021. The annual report and unaudited financial statements comprise the consolidated results and financial position of the Company and the Ditchling Museum Endowment Trust, registered charity number 290075 (together “the Group”). The Trustees confirm that the annual report and financial statements of the Company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the company's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP), 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 2015) as amended by Update Bulletin 1 (effective 1 January 2015).
Since the Company and the Group qualify as small under section 383, the Strategic Report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Director's Report) Regulations 2013 is not required.
PRINCIPAL ACTIVITY AND OBJECTIVES
Ditchling Museum was founded in 1985 by Joanna and Hilary Bourne. It is housed in a purpose-built award-winning building designed by Adam Richards Architects, which opened in 2012. The Museum holds a unique collection of work by many of the internationally known artists and craftspeople who chose to make Ditchling their home from the early 20th Century onwards, including David Jones, Sir Frank Brangwyn, Edward Johnston, Eric Gill, Ethel Mairet and Charles Knight.
The purpose of the Company is to present the story and historical context of the artists and craft workers who lived and worked in Ditchling and its surrounding communities since 1900. This is to be achieved through the acquisition, organisation, preservation, and interpretation of relevant and related objects and information and their deployment for public display, research and learning.
Vision:
A Place for Making
Inspired by the artists and craftspeople who first came to Ditchling, and in collaboration with contemporary practitioners, we connect past, present and future.
Mission:
Engage: Inspire: Create
-
To use the power of making to improve people’s lives with socially driven projects and hands on opportunities to create.
-
To be a hub for engaging with historic and contemporary making for researchers and creative practitioners
-
• To be an inspiring, enriching and inclusive museum that preserves the ideas and work of Ditchling’s historic makers and uses them to explore contemporary issues.
Objectives
Key objectives planned for this period were overtaken by the COVID-19 pandemic, and an emergency plan was put into place. Primary objectives during this year were:
-
To ensure the museum remained sustainable and financially viable during the pandemic.
-
To retain relationships with audiences and communities through digital means where face to face operation was not possible.
-
To support staff wellbeing and financial security in so far as that was possible during this period of extreme uncertainty.
The museum was closed for over 6 months during 2020-21 because of lockdown restrictions.

TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Collection and Exhibitions
-
Closure periods when staff were still able to access the building were used productively to progress collection cataloguing and care, and for research time.
-
A new project Different Stories was initiated, working with external partners to explore disability and queer stories within the museum collection.
-
One exhibition was presented during this period: tillage an exhibition of work by artist John Newling. It opened in July several months later than scheduled, once museums were permitted to re-open, and was extended across the rest of the. This exhibition which included new commissioned worked made in collaboration with the local community and additional work made by Newling during lockdown was well received by visitors and resonated with the prevailing increased appreciation of nature at this time.
The planned Hamada exhibition for winter 2020 was postponed.
Learning and Community
-
During lockdown the museum developed and delivered its first digital programme, designed to support wellbeing through creativity, and engage with our audiences. This was a new venture, but was highly successful, growing our social media following significantly and winning an award from Kids In Museums for Virtual Museum Club, a programme of weekly online family workshops.
-
Very little face to face activity took place because of restrictions during this year, although a successful Christmas project took place with local families who used kits to make festive lanterns at home, and then came together on the village green just before Christmas to share their work in a communal event.
Communication and Audience Development
-
During the open periods we welcomed 2,251 visitors, only 17% of normal numbers in an average year.
-
• Audience surveys after reopening reflected a high level of satisfaction with the experience and the exhibition, including safety measures in place to combat COVID-19 transmission with 100% visitors saying they felt safe.
-
The website rebuild commissioned in 2019-20 was completed in early 2020-21 and proved invaluable with a new online donations facility and enabling the expansion of online retail.
Commercial
- Commercial results are significantly down due to the pandemic. However, the success of the new online retail platform has been significant, and has mitigate the loss of on-site sales to some extent.
Governance
-
The Board meet more frequently during 2020-21 in response to the pandemic crisis with monthly meetings during the early part of the period.
-
The Finance and Income Generation Committee met monthly throughout the year, leading work on financial scenario planning to support prudent financial management.
Business Review, Investment Policy and Reserves
During the year the Trust’s consolidated funds increased by £75,184 (2020: decrease of £52,812), comprising income of £439,858 (2020: £403,129), expenditure of £382,973 (2020: £435,688) and gains on investment assets of £18,299 (2020: losses of £20,253). Consolidated reserves carried forward at 31 March 2021 totalled £2,531,027 (2020: £2,455,843). Of this amount £831,749 (2020: £755,960) is unrestricted, £391,718 (2020: £373,970) are Endowment Funds and the balance of £1,307,560 (2020: £1,325,913) is restricted. The restricted funds at 31 March 2021 predominantly comprise the development fund of £1,218,526 (2020: £1,246,639), which is primarily represented by the freehold property.
The Trustees have set a policy for investment of the Trust’s assets such that available monies are invested to maximise the total return, whilst ensuring that there is sufficient liquidity for short term cash flow requirements.
The Trustees have established the minimum level of unrestricted reserves that the Trust ought to have to cover operating costs as £60,000. Reserves are necessary to bridge the funding gaps between spending on exhibitions and other projects

and receiving resources. Reserves are also held to cover possible emergency repairs to the property and other expenditure. The majority of the Trust’s unrestricted reserves of £831,749 at 31 March 2021 (2020: £755,960) are represented by the property and other tangible assets.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Trustees
The Trustees, who are also directors for the purpose of company law, and who served during the year were:
Prof. Carol Watts, Chair Gavin Ambrose Ruth Cribb David M Browne (resigned 28 May 2020) Robert Griffiths Penelope Jones Ashley Knowles Kevin G Smyth Robin Stewart Anna Zeuner
Appointment of Trustees
Trustees and their terms of office are recommended to the members of the Board of Trustees (“the Board”). All appointments and reappointments must be approved in advance by the members either in general meeting or in writing.
Governing Document
Ditchling Museum of Art + Craft is a company limited by guarantee governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association dated 21 July 2008. It is registered as a charity with the Charity Commission (Charity No. 1126970). The liability of members in the event of a winding up is limited by guarantee to an amount not exceeding £1 per member.
The Trust was established to take over the ownership and management of Ditchling Museum from the Endowment Trust under which the Museum had operated since it was founded in 1985.
The Endowment Trust retains the core investment portfolio which is subject to the terms of a new governing document or “scheme” approved by the Charity Commissioners in 2011. All income received from endowment assets inures to the benefit of Ditchling Museum Trust and is transferred in cash on receipt.
Trustees' Induction and Training
New Trustees are briefed on their legal obligations under charity and company law, the content of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the business and finances of the Trust, the Museum Business Plan and all Museum policy documents.
Management
The business of the Trust is managed by the Board who meet at least four times per year.
The number of Trustees must be a minimum of three and a maximum of fifteen. When Trustees retire, applications are sought through open call, and nominations are sought from existing Trustees and Museum staff for their replacement. They are appointed at any of the four Trustees meetings during the year.
The day-to-day running of the Museum is delegated to a full-time Director, Stephanie Fuller. She is assisted by a full-time

TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
Learning and Public Programmes Manager; a full-time General Manager, assisted by three part-time Visitor Services Assistants; a part-time Retail Manager, a part-time Collection Curator; a full-time Collections and Learning Assistant and a part-time Communications Manager.
The museum also runs an extensive volunteer programme and hosts internships and offers work experience opportunities. The Trust annually reviews its risk management processes to ensure that it is up to date and that procedures are fully understood by all concerned.
Pay Policy for Senior Staff
The Trustees consider that they and the person responsible for the day to day management of the Trust comprise the key management personnel of the Trust in charge of directing, controlling, running and operating the Trust on a day to day basis. All Trustees give their time freely and no Trustee received remuneration in the year. Details of Trustee expenses are disclosed in note 11 to the accounts. The pay of the senior staff is reviewed annually.
FUTURE PLANS
Due to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic original plans were subject to substantial change, and the new business plan not developed during 2020-21 as intended. Instead, an emergency plan was put in place to support operation in the changed environment. It is the Museum’s intention to pick up this work during 2021-22 as more normal operations resume, and integrate learning from the pandemic period into future plans.
TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES STATEMENT
The Trustees (who are also directors of Ditchling Museum of Art + Craft for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (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 of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP 2015 (FRS 102);
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in operation.
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 hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
SMALL COMPANY EXEMPTIONS
The above report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act 2006 applicable to companies subject to the small companies’ regime.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S' REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF DITCHLING MUSEUM OF ART + CRAFT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
I report on the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021, which are set out on pages 9 to 27.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
-
examine the financial statements under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
-
to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner’s report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the financial statements presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements, and the seeking of explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and, consequently, no opinion is given as to whether the financial statements present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner’s statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention to indicate that:
-
accounting records have not been kept in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006;
-
the financial statements do not accord with such records;
-
whether they fail to comply with relevant accounting requirements under section 396 of the Companies Act 2006, or are not consistent with the Charites SORP (FRS102);
-
any matter which I believe should be drawn to the reader to gain a proper understanding of the financial statements.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
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 2015) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
Ditchling Museum of Art + Craft ("the Trust" or "the Company") 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.
The Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) and Balance Sheet consolidate the financial statements of the Company and the Endowment Trust. The results of the Endowment Trust are consolidated on a line by line basis.
1.2 Company Status
The Company is a company limited by guarantee. The members of the Company are the Trustees named on page 1. In the event of the Company being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the Company.
1.3 Going Concern
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the Trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The Trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern
1.4 Income
All income is recognised once the Company has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
Gifts in kind donated for distribution are included at valuation and recognised as income when they are distributed to the projects. Gifts donated for resale are included as income when they are sold. Donated facilities are included at the value to the Company where this can be quantified and a third party is bearing the cost. No amounts are included in the financial statements for services donated by volunteers.
Donated services or facilities are recognised when the Company has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use of the Company of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), the general volunteer time of the Friends is not recognised and refer to the Trustees' report for more information about their contribution.
On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the Company which is the amount the Company 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 tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
1.5 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
Fundraising costs are those incurred in seeking voluntary contributions and do not include the costs of disseminating information in support of the charitable activities. Support costs are those costs incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the Company and include project management carried out at Headquarters. Governance costs are those incurred in connection with administration of the company and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements.
Costs of generating funds are costs incurred in attracting voluntary income, and those incurred in trading activities that raise funds.
Charitable activities and governance costs are costs incurred on the Company's educational operations, including support costs and costs relating to the governance of the Company apportioned to charitable activities.
The Trust operates a partial exemption scheme for VAT purposes and the irrecoverable input VAT is shown separately as an expense within other expenditure.
1.6 Basis of consolidation
The financial statements consolidate the accounts of Ditchling Museum of Art + Craft and all of its subsidiary undertakings (“subsidiaries”, together “the Group”).
The Company has taken advantage of the exemption contained within 408 of the Companies Act 2006 not to present its own Income and expenditure account.

Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
All acquisition assets are capitalised. All other assets costing more than £1,000 are capitalised.
Heritage assets comprise the collection of artefacts and exhibits that are held by the Trust. Such assets that were acquired by the Endowment Trust prior to March 2005 are not included as capital items in these accounts.
Tangible fixed assets are carried at cost, net of depreciation and any provision for impairment. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:
Freehold property – straight line over 50 years Fixtures and fittings – straight line over 5 years Museum collection – not depreciated

1.8 Investments
Fixed asset investments are a form of financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction cost and subsequently measured at fair value at the Balance Sheet date, unless fair value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investment gains and losses, whether realised or unrealised, are combined and shown in the heading ‘Gains/(losses) on investments’ in the Statement of Financial Activities.
1.9 Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the Company; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.
1.10 Operating leases
Rentals under operating leases are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities on a straight-line basis over the lease term
1.11 Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slow-moving stocks. Cost includes all direct costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.
1.12 Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.
1.13 Cash at bank and in hand
Cash at bank and 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.
1.14 Liabilities and provisions
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance Sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably. Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Company anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide. Provisions are measured at the best estimate of the amounts required to settle the obligation. Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the provision is based on the present value of those amounts, discounted at the pre-tax discount rate that reflects the risks specific to the liability. The unwinding of the discount is recognised within interest payable and similar charges.
1.15 Financial instruments
The Company only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
1.16 Taxation
The Company is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore

DITCHLING MUSEUM OF ART + CRAFT
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordingly, the Company is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Chapter 3 Part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Section 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.
1.17 Pensions
The Company operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the Company to the fund in respect of the year.
1.18 Fund accounting
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Company and which have not been designated for other purposes.
Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Company for particular purposes. The costs 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.
Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.
1.19 Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgement
Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances
Critical accounting estimates and assumptions:
The Company makes estimates and assumptions concerning the future. The resulting accounting estimates and assumptions will, by definition, seldom equal the related actual results. The estimates and assumptions that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are discussed below.
Critical areas of judgment:
Depreciation: The Company exercises judgement to determine useful lives and residual values of property, plant and equipment. The assets are depreciated down to their residual values over their estimated useful lives.
