## **TRUSTEES' ANNUAL REPORT (continued)** 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

The objectives of the East Coast Sail Trust Ltd are that of maintaining and preserving the traditional Thames Sailing Barge, "Thalatta", or other similar barge as may be acquired, in seagoing order and using the vessel to benefit young people from all walks of life by the provision of educational cruises. 

## **PUBLIC BENEFIT** 

The Trustees have had due regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on Public Benefit in carrying out the Charity's activities as described above. 

The Trustees are aware of the guidance; 

The Trustees will take into account when making a decision to which the guidance is relevant; The Trustees will only decide to depart from the guidance when they have a very good reason for doing so. 

Our charters are most beneficial to the young people who take part in them.  The benefits they receive are easily identified by their comments, their written work, their artwork, and the increased self-esteem and personal confidence derived from working together as a team. 

## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE** 

The 2020 season was one of continued growth as we expanded our customer base as a result of the marketing and customer support activities put in during this and the previous years.  It is one thing to widen our base of new customers by excellent publicity, but even better when those same customers return to sail with us again. 

Our philosophy has always been that charters are for young people and those disadvantaged by medical conditions or other reasons and these have always taken precedence.  However, when not used in this way we would prefer to charter Thalatta out to various other groups rather than having her sitting alongside a dock.  In this way we not only raise additional funds which help us keep charter rates low but also open up the joy of sailing this historic vessel and raise the Trust’s profile to a wider audience. 

The 2021 financial year (this comprises the 2020 sailing season) was hit by the Covid pandemic and we lost our entire charter income as the barge remained under cover for the entire sailing season and through the winter due to the nationwide lockdowns. 

We have been fortunate in two ways.  Firstly, all our 2021 season customers that had to be cancelled deferred their bookings (and any associated deposits) to the following year.  Secondly we were grateful to receive 2 grants from the Heritage Lottery fund totalling circa £16k.  During the year we received other donations from Friends of Thalatta our loyal support organisation. 

As a result of these cash injections we have been able to survive the year, carry out all our usual maintenance work and entered the new year with a cash balance of  £31.8k (2020: £32.3k). Combining this with entering the next year (ending March 2022) with a healthy forward order book we looked forward to a successful season provided that lockdown restrictions were eased.

## **TRUSTEES' ANNUAL REPORT (continued)** 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

(Note:  In the event, lockdown restrictions were eased in June 2021 which enabled us to retrieve the vast majority of our  sailing season). 

We remain grateful for the continued unstinting support from everyone  involved in the Trust, particularly Cyril & Cheryl Varley, Roger Davies, Tamsin Preston and Nick Hayward. One casualty of the lockdown is that regular Board meetings were unable to be held.  However, this was not a hindrance as communication between the Trustees was maintained via email and phone. 

The Trust is very grateful to our Friends of Thalatta for their considerable financial support and interest, including visits to the barge and participating in our day sails. The Friends receive regular newsletters which keep them informed of all that is going on in the Trust and Thalatta. We are putting greater efforts into involving the Friends in our activities. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

Income for the year of £25.1k was almost entirely due to HLF grants and donations.  We were able to maintain our cash at bank £31.8k (2020: £32.3k).  These reserves are lower than ideal and we intend to keep close control of our costs to increase them over the next 2 years to provide a greater cushion for the future. 

Increased maintenance costs are inevitable over the forthcoming years and our marketing objectives are geared towards meeting this need.

## **TRUSTEES' ANNUAL REPORT (continued)** 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **Reserves Policy** 

It is our policy to maintain free reserves (being unrestricted funds excluding those represented by fixed assets) at a level that equates to between nine and twelve months of revenue expenditure. It is our intention to maintain this level or reserves for the 2022 year and develop them further in subsequent years.  How the Covid situation develops may affect the overall level of future reserves but at present we can see our way forward. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **HOW THE TRUST IS RUN** 

The Trust is registered as a company limited by guarantee and the Directors are regarded as Trustees by the Charity Commission. 

The organisation is a small one with the Trustees supported by a Management Team which includes the Skipper of "Thalatta", who has overall responsibility for the vessel when at sea. 

Trustees continue to donate their services and receive no form of remuneration. Their contribution and that of part time accountant, Rasa Dalton, to the smooth running of the trust is acknowledged and greatly appreciated as is that of the Skipper, Cyril Varley. 

The Trustees are mindful of the obligations imposed as a registered charity. They periodically review overall policy. A quorum of three members must be present at the meetings of the Trustees which are held regularly throughout the year. The Trustees are responsible for promoting the objects of the Trust, its conduct and management and day-to-day running. Proposed new Trustees are initially invited to attend trustee meetings to meet the other Trustees and ensure they have a good understanding of the trust and its objectives and will be able to contribute. They may then be elected. 

Finances are carefully controlled and projections and cash flow reviewed on a regular basis. 

Crew are paid on a weekly or daily basis according to bookings and other work required. 

This report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions applicable to companies entitled to the small companies exemption.

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

## **YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **Basis of accounting** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), 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 (effective 1 January 2019) (Charities SORP FRS102) and the Companies Act 2006. 

## **Legal Status** 

The charity is a company limited by guarantee and meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS102.  It is incorporated in England and Wales and its registered address is 146 New London Road Chelmsford, Essex, CM2 0AW. 

## **Going Concern** 

The Trustees have considered the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic in their assessment of the charity’s ability to prepare accounts as a going concern. Because of the uncertainties surrounding the effects of the economic slowdown it is difficult to predict the impact on the charity, but having taken all the factors into account, the trustees are of the opinion that the charity has sufficient resources to continue trading for the next 12 months from the date of signing these accounts. 

## **Income** 

Income from donations and grants, including capital grants, is included in incoming resources when these are receivable, except as follows: 

- when donors specify that donations and grants given to the charity must be used in future accounting periods, the income is deferred until those periods. 

- when donors impose conditions which have to be fulfilled before the charity becomes entitled to use such income, the income is deferred and not included in incoming resources until the pre-conditions have been met. 

When donors specify that donations and grants, including capital grants, are for particular restricted purposes, which do not amount to pre-conditions regarding entitlement, this income is included in incoming resources of restricted funds when receivable. 

## **Expenditure** 

Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis. Support costs which relate to the day to day running of the charity and governance costs are included as costs of charitable activities. 

## **Fund accounting** 

Funds held by the charity are either: 

Unrestricted general funds - these are funds which can be used in accordance with the charitable objects at the discretion of the trustees. 

Restricted funds - these are funds that can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity.

## **YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)** 

## **Fixed assets** 

All fixed assets are initially recorded at cost. 

## **Depreciation** 

Depreciation is calculated so as to write off the cost of an asset, less its estimated residual value, over the useful economic life of that asset as follows: 

Sailing Barge - Depreciated over 50 years Equipment - 10% Reducing Balance 

## **Stocks** 

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. 

## **Debtors** 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due. 

## **Creditors** 

Creditors are recognised when the charity has a present obligation arising 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.

The Thalatta is insured for £470,600.  The sailing barge was revalued in the year-ended 31st March 2012 at the net realisable value of £300,000 which has now been treated as the base cost and is being depreciated over 50 years. The Trustees consider the value as continuing to be appropriate and no impairment review is necessary. 

As part of the HLF funding it took a legal charge over Thalatta which is only exercisable should the Trust be unable to continue to operate for any reason.

## **14. CREDITORS: Amounts falling due within one year** 

Deferred income relates to fees received in advance for sailing trips that took place after the year end. Deferred income brought forward totalling £3,459 was carried forward at the year end. 

## **15. CONTINGENT LIABILITY** 

As is usual practice were Thalatta to be sold, or in certain other circumstances,  restoration grants previously made by HLF could become repayable.
