The Fifth Trust (a company limited by guarantee)
The trustees present their annual report together with the audited financial statements of The Fifth Trust for the period 1 April 2021 to 31 March 2022. The annual report serves the purposes of both a trustees’ report and a directors’ report under company law. The trustees confirm that the annual report and financial statements of the charitable company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charitable 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 (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2019).
Since the group and the charity qualify as small under section 383 of the Companies Act 2006, the Group strategic report required of medium and large companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors’ Report) Regulations 2013 has been omitted.

About us
The Fifth Trust has been providing educational and creative activities, skills training and rewarding work experience for adults with learning disabilities since 1990.
Currently around 140 students from across East Kent attend our two skills centres near Canterbury, which operate five days a week year-round. Here they take part in sessions including horticulture, catering, art and design, woodwork, pottery and music. Their creative
work, including paintings, bird nesting boxes, ceramics and greetings cards, is available to buy.
We also operate social enterprises – the Vineyard Garden Centre and Vineyard Café – to raise additional revenue in addition to the student fees we receive from Kent County Council, other local authorities and privately. Our students play an active role in these enterprises, growing plant stock for the garden centre and vegetables for the café kitchen; making delicious chutneys and jams, scones and cakes; and helping to prepare meals and serve customers. They also work in the local community as members of our log delivery and garden maintenance teams.
Our vision
A world where every person with a learning disability can access life-enhancing opportunities tailored to their individual needs.
Our mission
Every day we encourage and challenge our students with learning disabilities to do and be the best that they can.
Our values
Caring – we treat everyone with kindness and respect.
Individual – we tailor our services to the individual needs of each student and offer freedom of choice.
Strive – we encourage our students and our staff to develop skills and self-belief.
Excellence – we provide high quality, life enhancing services in a safe, supportive environment.
One team – students, staff, volunteers, trustees, families, carers: we work together.

Welcome
We present our 2021/22 annual report after a period that has again been overshadowed by the coronavirus pandemic. As the world adjusted to living with Covid, we were immensely proud of the way our staff and students responded to the continuing challenges, and thoroughly relieved to be able to finally return to a full rota of activities in September 2021.
This was the year when we saw a long-held dream turn into a glorious reality. On 30 June 2022 we held the official naming ceremony for the three stunning architect-designed buildings that make up our Barham Skills Centre. It was an opportunity for us to thank the many grant-making organisations and generous individuals who supported our £2 million, six-year fundraising campaign and also to recognise the contribution of our students (whose views on the design were invaluable), the guiding hand of our trustees, the input of our staff, the hard work of the contractors, and the support of the local community.
We are now happily settled in the fantastic new facilities and working towards delivery of new services and increasing student intake.
Nikki Marley, CEO
Suzanne O’Brien, Chair
We are also gearing up to launching a major new development – Fifth Trust Connect. Our on-demand video service will enable us to expand our reach to an audience of learning disabled people outside our catchment area and those living locally who are unable for whatever reason to access our sites, as well as giving our current students access to additional courses and life skills games whenever they want.
Empowering our students to realise their potential is at the heart of what we do, so we were delighted to take on the first apprentice recruited from our student body. Charly is now a year into her customer care course and working hard in the Vineyard Café and on her studies, supported by one of our instructors.
Income generation continues to be a focus with a growing reliance on fundraising and our social enterprises. Now that we have emerged from lockdown, we look forward to fully renewing a wide range of activities.
The economic and political environments remain challenging, and the links we build with like-minded organisations and with our local community are increasingly important. We continue to evolve and grow so that we deliver for our students life-enhancing opportunities tailored to their individual needs.

Our aims and objectives
-
To continue to provide a safe and fulfilling way of life for our students.
-
To increase income generation through our social enterprises and fundraising.
-
To enhance our relationship with the local community and to build stronger links with like-minded organisations.
-
To be an active voice in educating wider society to promote greater social inclusion of people with learning disabilities.
Strategy for achieving aims and objectives
In 2021, The Fifth Trust published an ambitious five-year strategic plan, providing a framework for the continued successful growth and delivery of a sustainable, high-quality service for adults with learning disabilities.
The plan can be viewed on our website: www.fifthtrust.co.uk.
Public benefit
The charity’s objective is to support adults with learning disabilities, and this is a benefit to them, to their families and to the wider community. In setting objectives and planning activities, the trustees have given due consideration to general guidance relating to public benefit published by the Charity Commission.

Fundraising
Barham Skills Centre
Throughout the year work continued on our new Barham Skills Centre, following a six-year fundraising campaign.
The gross cost of the project, including the associated fixtures and fittings, was £1.9m, approximately £1.65m net of VAT recovered. We are pleased to report that the net costs were fully covered by donations and pledges received.
Global supply issues in the construction sector saw the build’s projected end-date slip by three months, but by the end of March 2022 students were able to move into two of the three new buildings – Lucy’s Media Suite, named after a student who sadly died in 2020, and the Art Studio. Work on the Bradbury Hub, offering flexible space for dining, meeting and putting on exhibitions, a kitchen, office, sensory room, shower and changing facilities, continued for several more weeks. Practical completion of the whole build occurred in June. We held an official launch event on 30 June and were delighted to see many donors and sponsors who helped to bring this ambitious dream to fruition.
As well as giving current students a fantastic new environment, the new centre will also increase capacity by at least 10% and allow us to offer new services for learning disabled adults with profound physical conditions and a life skills programme for students getting ready to live more independently.
Fundraising continues to fit out the sensory room, landscape the outside space with a series of sensory gardens and to provide outdoor seating.

Helping ourselves
The efforts of staff, students and local supporters help boost our income from fundraising.
In May 2021 we took part in the Captain Tom 100 Challenge, a nationwide event held in memory of Captain Sir Tom Moore, raising £960 through activities such as making 100 keyrings for sale, baking 100 biscuits for the café and being sponsored to walk 100 laps of the vineyard.
The Fifth Trust administrator Alison Turner and a friend collected £1,815 in sponsorship by climbing Mount Snowdon in July, and six other members of staff cycled 50km in the KM Big Bike Ride in September to raise £1,470.
Shoppers at Asda in Canterbury voted us winner of the Asda Foundation Green Token Giving scheme in August, which gave us £500 for art equipment. Ten-year-old café regular Alex raised an incredible £1,285 by having his hair cut!
Thankfully, we were able to hold our Christmas craft fair again, having been forced to cancel in 2020 due to the pandemic. This is a real highlight in both our and the local community’s calendar, and we raised £10,300.

Student services
In April 2021 we welcomed students back to our skills centres for the first time in three months as the Government began to implement its roadmap out of lockdown. Continuing pandemic restrictions such as social distancing and our commitment to student safety, through protective measures like small class bubbles, meant Covid continued to impact on our service through to the autumn, when we were finally able to reintroduce our full rota of activities and students joined our garden maintenance and log delivery teams again.
18 activities to choose from
928 half day sessions per week
11% of adults with learning disabilities in Kent who use care services come to us
16-70+ age range of students
During this period we continued to offer online video sessions following positive feedback from students and their families.
9
New activities
We secured funding to develop our pandemic online provision into a new video service, Fifth Trust Connect, which is set to launch in October 2022. It will be available to current students who want to access additional content at home, people living outside our catchment area and anyone facing barriers to attending our skills centres in person. It will offer courses in subjects including art, cooking, gardening and photography taught by our expert instructors and delivered in bitesized videos, and fun life skills games, with new content added every month.
A new session we have been trialling aims to build students’ confidence and communication skills while enjoying adventure out in the fresh air. Outdoor Active offers students a totally new experience, learning bushcraft skills such as campfire- and shelter-building in nearby woodland. Led by a Forest School-trained instructor and rigorously risk-assessed, the session demonstrates what the great outdoors has to offer and encourages participants to try out ancient arts including whittling.
Our commitment to engaging with other organisations has seen us become a John Muir award provider. This national environmental scheme encourages people from all backgrounds to connect with, enjoy and care for wild places. The four-week Discoverer Award has been completed by 12 of our students, and we are now offering it as a summer holiday activity to local SEN schools.

Meet our students
Georgia started at The Fifth Trust during the pandemic, so initially her experience was entirely online. She was so comfortable using our digital service she even presented a session of her own – a round-up of the week’s TV soaps. Now attending our skills centres four days a week, Georgia says she enjoys all her sessions but is clear on what the best thing about the Trust is: “I’ve got loads of friends here!”
Ben is one of the students who was filmed for BBC South East Today’s On The Map in June 2021. He told presenter Sara Thornton about his work in the garden centre and the vineyard where he helps tend the vines – but admitted he hasn’t tasted the end result!
Malcolm has been coming to The Fifth Trust for over 20 years. He says: “I love art. I like drawing and painting pictures.” A massive sports fan, Malcolm often chooses football as a subject and is a dab hand at landscapes too.
Debbie is very creative so particularly enjoys sessions such as art, craft and pottery. She has also been with us for many years but still enjoys trying new things – as a keen nature lover she was one of the first students to sign up for the John Muir Discoverer Award.
11
Social enterprises
Covid-19 continued to impact on our social enterprise operations. Although the Vineyard Garden Centre returned to seven day a week opening from the beginning of March 2021 and the Vineyard Café was able to fully reopen in May 2021, footfall did not recover to pre-pandemic levels. As a result the café made a loss during the year of £9k. Since then we have seen an increase in customer numbers and the café is trading profitably again.
The Vineyard Garden Centre made a profit during the year of £28k. Our log delivery service was impacted by the loss of a key supplier. As a result we had to find new sources but given the extended lead times for deliveries we were not able to meet customer needs for several months. We have now established a pool of suppliers to ensure a steady flow of logs throughout the year.
It was great to see students return to garden maintenance and log delivery services in the autumn and regular customers were equally delighted to see them out and about in the community again. Towards the end of the year we changed our garden maintenance business model to half or full day contracts, rather than hourly periods, and this has significantly boosted profitability.
Students from the University of Kent IT consultancy redeveloped our social enterprise website www.vineyardgardencentre.co.uk as part of their Masters in Computer Science. The site now hosts an online shop that showcases student work including ceramics, cards and woodwork.

Financial review
Reserves
Results
The Fifth Trust had a net surplus of income over expenditure (including net investment loss) in the year of £933,155 (2021 £395,454) broken down as follows:
| broken down as follows: | |
|---|---|
| £ | |
| Charity’s core care services | (144,782) |
| Net loss on investments | (5,500) |
| Garden centre | 27,898 |
| Café | (9,269) |
| Donations – unrestricted | 18,284 |
| Donations – restricted | 1,046,524 |
| ___ | |
| TOTAL | 933,155 |
Donations of £1,090,187 were received during the year. £1,065,243 was restricted of which £1,026,970 related to the Barham Skills Centre redevelopment, £20,000 for an employee dedicated to supporting students with dementia, £12,000 for development of our online digital platform Fifth Trust Connect and £6,273 other. During the year expenditure incurred on restricted related donations was £1,224,753, of which £1,177,801 related to the Barham Skills Centre redevelopment. £1,205,751 was capitalised.
The trustees have adopted a policy in line with Charity Commission recommendations. The policy takes into account unexpected variances in income and expenditure to ensure that the charity is able to meet its financial obligations and to maintain its undertakings in the short term. In particular the reserves are required for the following purposes:
-
to provide a level of working capital that protects the continuity of our work
-
to provide a level of funding for unexpected opportunities
to provide cover for risks such as unforeseen expenditure or unanticipated loss of income.
The trustees have set the figure for liquid unrestricted reserves at a minimum of £250,000 (2021 - £250,000) which in a worst case scenario would cover three months’ staff costs, a building reserve and other potential costs in the event of a winding up.
The total of unrestricted funds held in net current assets is £484,826 of which £15,520 is designated funds. Unrestricted cash at bank and in hand is £301,791.
Restricted reserves as at 31 March 2022 were £333,900, all of which is held as cash at bank. Of this sum £271,079 relates to donations for the Barham Skills Centre (net of expenditure paid out to date), with the balance relating to various other projects.
Principal funding sources
The Fifth Trust’s revenue is generated from three main sources: day care fees (primarily from a contract with Kent Count Council); income from our social enterprises, the café and the garden centre providing training and work experience activities for students; and charitable grants and donations. Total revenues for the year were £2.4m against £1.6m last year. However, this increase was primarily as a result of additional restricted donations relating to the Barham Skills Centre. Excluding restricted donations, revenues fell to £1.33m from £1.44m last year. Day care fees were up on last year and although garden centre and café revenues increased as the impact of Covid lessened, these additional revenues were less than the Covid government grants and furlough payments we received during 2021.
13
Financial Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)
The trustees receive quarterly management accounts detailing the quarterly performance and year to date performance of each operation with comparisons to budgets which are set at the beginning of the year. These results are accompanied by a commentary on the performances highlighting any main variances and any issues that have arisen. In addition, a range of key performance indicators are included in the reports such as gross operating margins, student and staff numbers.
Going concern
After making appropriate enquiries, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies.
The charity has been significantly affected by the Covid-19 crisis. However, we have weathered the storm and activities are slowly returning to pre-pandemic levels. The Vineyard Garden Centre and Vineyard Café footfall has still not recovered fully, but we hope customer numbers will continue to improve as we move into the second half of 2022. As at 31 March 2022 the charity has in excess of £300k of unrestricted cash reserves to support the charity’s ongoing activities. The charity is currently forecasting a small excess of income over expenditure for the financial year ended 31 March 2023.
Principal risks and uncertainties
The major risk for the charity is the loss of income needed to fund its ongoing day care activities. The trustees and senior management keep abreast of changes in Government policy on day care fees and day care regulations to ensure that the charity complies with all requirements and implements any necessary changes as they arise to continue to secure that revenue stream. The charity was able to maintain most of its student fee income during the lockdown periods and is grateful for the support of its funders, particularly Kent County Council. In June 2022 we submitted a tender to KCC for a new four year contract beginning 1 October 2022. In August KCC confirmed we have been successful. This new contract will secure the majority of our existing care service fees for the next four years and significantly reduce our risk of a loss of income over this period.
Trustees and the senior management team revisit the charity’s business strategy regularly. Income from social enterprise activities is monitored on a departmental basis, highlighting potential areas of weakness to allow early remedial action where required. Major capital projects, such as the new skills centre, are not undertaken until adequate funding is in place. Trustees and senior management hold regular finance, audit and risk committee meetings which report back to the quarterly trustee board meetings.
14
Structure, governance and management
The Fifth Trust is registered as a charitable company limited by guarantee and was set up by a trust deed.
The oversight of the group and the charity is the responsibility of the trustees, who are all elected under the terms of the Articles of Association. Our trustees play a pivotal role in setting the strategic direction of the Trust and supporting and guiding the senior management team.
In setting the Trust’s aims and objectives, the trustees give due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit.
Board meetings are held quarterly with an annual away day to review strategy and significant topics. Smaller working groups of trustees and managers focused on particular areas and projects also meet regularly. A stakeholders’ engagement panel has been established to provide advice and feedback to the board and a communications committee also meets regularly.
The Trust has a conflict of interest policy and any potential conflicts are identified at all meetings.
Safeguarding is a priority and is on the agenda at every board meeting. Our safeguarding policy is reviewed annually. In line with the Charity Commission’s guidelines, all staff, trustees and volunteers undergo safeguarding training and all are DBS checked.
The board of trustees is responsible for selecting and recruiting suitable trustees to office. The trustees strive to ensure a good representation of independent members with the necessary skills and experience to strengthen the board. Trustees serve on an unpaid voluntary basis.
15
Statement of trustees’ responsibilities
The trustees (who are also the directors of the charity for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the trustees’ 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. Under company law, the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the group and the charity and of their incoming resources and application of resources, including their income and expenditure. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently
-
observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP (FRS 102)
-
make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards (FRS 102) 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 group will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the group and the charity’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Group and the charity 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 group and the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities

Independent auditor’s report to the members of The Fifth Trust
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of The Fifth Trust (the ‘parent charitable company’) and its subsidiaries (the ‘group’) for the year ended 31 March 2022 which comprise the consolidated statement of financial activities, the consolidated balance sheet, the charity balance sheet, the consolidated statement of cash flows and the related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland’ (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the group’s and of the parent charitable company’s affairs as at 31 March 2022 and of the group’s incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 and the Charities Act 2011.
Basis for opinion
(UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the group’s or the parent charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing
17
Other information
The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditors’ report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.
Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
-
the information given in the trustees’ report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements.
-
the trustees’ report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the trustees’ report.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
the parent charitable company has not kept adequate and sufficient accounting records, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
-
the parent charitable company financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
certain disclosures of trustees’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or
-
the trustees were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies’ regime and take advantage of the small companies’ exemptions in preparing the trustees’ report and from the requirement to prepare a strategic report.
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being
18
satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the group’s and the parent charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the group or the parent charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is
detailed below:
Capability of the audit in detecting irregularities, including fraud
Based on our understanding of the charity and the sector as a whole, and through discussion with the trustees and other management (as required by auditing standards), we identified that the principal risks of non- compliance with laws and regulations related to safeguarding, health and safety, general data protection regulations and employment law. We considered the extent to which noncompliance might have a material effect on the financial statements. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements such as the Charities SORP (FRS 102) Second Edition (released October 2019), the Companies Act 2006, taxation and pension legislation. We communicated identified laws and regulations throughout our team and remained alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout the audit. We evaluated management’s incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements (including the risk of override of controls) and determined that the principal risks were related to posting inappropriate journal entries and management bias in accounting estimates and judgemental areas of the financial statements. Audit procedures performed by the engagement team included:
-
Discussions with management and assessment of known or suspected instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations (including health and safety) and fraud; and
-
Assessment of identified fraud risk factors; and
-
Review of expenditure to confirm no evidence of personal benefit; and
-
Identifying and assessing the
19
design effectiveness of controls that management has in place to prevent and detect fraud; and
-
Challenging assumptions and judgements made by management in its significant accounting estimates; and
-
Performing analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships, including related party transactions, that may indicate risks of material misstatement due to fraud; and
-
Confirmation of related parties with management, and review of transactions throughout the period to identify any previously undisclosed transactions with related parties outside the normal course of business; and
-
Reading minutes of meetings of those charged with governance; and
-
Review of significant and unusual transactions and evaluation of the underlying financial rationale supporting transactions; and
-
Identifying and testing journal entries, in particular any manual entries made at the year-end for financial statement preparation.
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk is also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs (UK), we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional scepticism throughout the audit. We also:
-
Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
-
Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion of the effectiveness of the charitable company’s internal control.
-
Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related disclosures made by the trustees.
-
Conclude on the appropriateness of the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors’ report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors’ report. However, future events or conditions may cause the charitable company to cease to continue as a going concern.

Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the financial statements

We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance of the group audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.

1 General information
The Fifth Trust is a charity registered in England. The charity's registered address is Elham Valley Vineyard, Breach, Barham, Canterbury, CT4 6LN.
2 Accounting policies
2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (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 (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
The Fifth Trust 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 consolidated statement of financial activities (SOFA) and consolidated balance sheet consolidate the financial statements of the company and its subsidiary undertakings. The results of the subsidiaries are consolidated on a line by line basis.
The charity has taken advantage of the exemption allowed under section 408 of the Companies Act 2006 and has not presented its own Statement of financial activities.
2.2 Going concern
The trustees assess whether the use of going concern is appropriate, i.e. whether there are any material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continue as a going concern. The trustees make this assessment in respect of a period of at least one year from the date of authorisation for issue of the financial statements and have concluded that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern, thus they continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
2.3 Revenue
Revenue is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company and the revenue can be reliably measured. Revenue is measured as the fair value of the consideration received or receivable, excluding discounts, rebates, value added tax and other sales taxes. The following criteria must also be met before revenue is recognised:

THE FIFTH TRUST
(A company limited by guarantee) Registered number: 07262103
2 Accounting policies (continued)
Provision of services
Revenue from the provision of services is recognised when all of the following conditions are satisfied:
-
the company has transferred the significant risks and rewards of ownership to the buyer; - the company retains neither continuing managerial involvement to the degree usually associated with ownership nor effective control over the goods sold;
-
the amount of revenue can be measured reliably;
-
it is probable that the company will receive the consideration due under the transaction; and
-
the costs incurred or to be incurred in respect of the transaction can be measured reliably.
2.4 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.
Costs of generating funds are costs incurred in attracting voluntary income, and those incurred in trading activities that raise funds.
Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the group's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.
2.5 Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit are included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the group; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the institution with whom the funds are deposited.

2 Accounting policies (continued)
2.6 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Tangible fixed assets are capitalised and recognised when future economic benefits are probable and the cost or value of the asset can be measured reliably.
Tangible fixed assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, tangible fixed assets are measured at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. All costs incurred to bring a tangible fixed asset into its intended working condition should be included in the measurement of cost.
Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of tangible fixed assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives.
Depreciation is provided on the following bases:
Buildings 4% straight line Tools and equipment 25% reducing balance Motor vehicles 25% reducing balance Forklift (included in MV) 10% straight line Assets under construction Not depreciated
2.7 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 the 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 presented as ‘Gains/(Losses) on investments’ in the Consolidated statement of financial activities.
Investments in subsidiaries are valued at cost less provision for impairment.
2.8 Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost comprises direct costs of purchase that have been incurred in bringing the stock to its present location and condition.
2.9 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.
2.10 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.

2 Accounting policies (continued)
2.11 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 charity 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 in the Consolidated statement of financial activities as a finance cost.
2.12 Financial instruments
The group 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
2.13 Operating leases
Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the Consolidated statement of financial activities on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
2.14 Pensions
The group operates a defined contribution pension scheme and the pension charge represents the amounts payable by the group to the fund in respect of the year.
2.15 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 group 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 group for particular purposes. The costs of raising and adminstering 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.
