(A company limited by guarantee)
Welcome
I am delighted to report Marrick Priory Trust continues to be in a sustainable financial position, supporting the day to day running of the centre and maintenance of our historic buildings, as the planned developments take place.
I am proud that we remain as popular as ever, with visitor numbers back to pre-pandemic levels and growing. We still remain relevant to our visitors needs and we have been able to offer every activity and continue to research new ones. Staffing levels have brought their challenges, they have shown their true colours; being flexible and resilient and learning new skills in the process.
I would like to thank the staff, trustees and Friends for their hard work, expertise and integrity ensuring Marrick Priory is always a safe, happy and inspiring place to visit.

Objectives and activities
Constitution and Governing Document
The Charity is a company limited by guarantee. Marrick Priory Trust was registered as a charity on 1 December 2010 and is governed by its memorandum and articles.
Aims and Organisation
Marrick Priory Trust is an independent company limited by guarantee linked to the Diocese of Leeds of the Church of England.
The primary aim of the Charity is to manage and maintain Marrick Priory as a Christian residential community centre for outdoor education and training, religious worship, study and recreation.
Public benefit
Our values and culture are central to everything we do, helping us achieve our goals. We, the board and staff, remain focused on supporting groups with a welcoming, homely atmosphere; ensuring that all who visit us, and work here, feel part of the Marrick Family. We have received many, many letters of thanks saying how much they enjoyed their visit.
We listen closely to our visitors’ issues, needs and priorities; whether it is a quiet, reflective few days, team building outside in the countryside or managing inner fears jumping from the leap of faith. Each group is asked to complete a questionnaire. These are a few of their answers;
-
You can’t replicate this kind of teamwork in a rural/practical environment on the school site
-
Helps them build trust with each other, staff and teachers
-
Builds confidence and resilience
-
Broadens young people’s horizons
-
They can really push themselves and become more independent on a residential
-
Makes them face challenges and overcome them
-
You always feel listened to and you feel almost part of a wider family when you visit
-
Having the centre to ourselves – is a massive PLUS
-
Ethos of Marrick matches our own
-
Wonderful food, amazing location, safe environment and flexibility

MARRICK PRIORY TURST
(A company limited by guarantee)
Report of the Trustees For the Year Ended 31 March 2023
Question: What do you think are the current challenges facing young people today?
Answers:
-
The need to be in the ‘in group’
-
Need to have things; best phone, clothes, trainers and to look good
-
An increase in risk aversion
-
An over-reliance on digital media as a pass-time.
-
An unrealistic expectation that there should never be a failure.
-
Poor mental health and the lack of external services to support episodes
One of our key measures is the number of bed nights taken, as it is our main source of revenue. This year we had a total of 6130 bed nights, an increase of 4% on the years 2016 – 2020. A figure we keep an eye on as booking patterns change and group sizes increase due to Academy’s class sizes and the cost of living crisis. The majority of our visitors remain from schools within a 1.5hr journey, though some groups came from as far afield as Lincolnshire and Norfolk. We always enjoy the diversity of non-school groups, 25% of bookings this year included Scout, Christian, addiction, pediatric, inner city and military organisations. Day bookings made up 9% of our visitor numbers this year.
Activities
During the year the board and staff worked together and agreed our Vision, Mission and Values for the next 5 years;
Our Vision
To enrich, inspire and develop potential through challenge, whilst maintaining respect for the individual.
Our Mission
Realising everyone's potential through fun, tailored, educational outdoor adventures in an historic Yorkshire Dales’ Priory - underpinned by our inclusive Christian ethos of trust, integrity, kindness and respect.
Our Values
Trust Integrity Inclusivity Respect Kindness
Our strapline
Enriching life skills through adventure
We are also working on our 5 year Strategy and very much hope to reveal it during 2023. In essence our new strategy will demonstrate measurable objectives showing the impact on our visitors.

MARRICK PRIORY TURST (A company limited by guarantee)
Report of the Trustees For the Year Ended 31 March 2023
Recruitment and appointment of trustees
Our highly skilled and passionate board of volunteer trustees ensure we are robustly governed and met 4 times during the year supported by the Staffing Committee, Estate and Facilities Group, Business and Activities Group and Marrick Family Group. All are chaired by trustees and some groups also include members of staff.
In accordance with our Memorandum and Articles of Association the maximum number of trustees is 14, made up of 5 nominated by the Bishop of Leeds, 2 nominated by the Leeds Diocesan Board of Finance, being the custodian trustee of Marrick Priory, and 7 from the wider community in which we operate. The board at present has 10 members. During the year 2 trustees resigned and were re-elected at our AGM, 3 trustees resigned from the board, and I thank them for their hard work and wisdom, and 3 joined the board bringing with them both financial and heritage church building expertise.
A trustee skills audit is planned for the near future
Organisational structure
The Head of Centre is responsible for the day to day running of the centre supported by 1 full and 1 part time deputies, administrator, business development, maintenance, housekeeper, domestic team and instructors.
There have been difficulties recruiting both instructors and domestic staff due to the pandemic and our remote location. However, with a lot of job sharing and cutting back on weekend bookings we were able to support the bookings we already had.
Key management remuneration
The Charity does not have many employees and considers the key management personnel to consist of the Head of Centre, Jim Gleave, and unpaid trustees. The Head of Centre is employed by the Leeds Diocesan Board of Finance and partially funded by Marrick Priory. This funding is reviewed annually by the Trustees.
The Friends of Marrick Priory have organised a number of entertaining evenings to promote the work of the centre, raise funds for the bursary and to purchase items enhancing the visitors’ experience at Marrick.
Our partners
We work closely with a number of partners; the Diocese of Leeds provides HR support and our farming neighbours provide support in a number of ways as well as enrich our visitors’ experience of the countryside.
Risk management
We encounter risk daily, particularly with outdoor activities and young people. We have in place a number of annually approved policies and procedures including; Health & Safety, Safe Practice for Outdoor Activities, Safeguarding, Incident, Whistle Blowing, Safe Recruitment, GDPR and the Risk Register. The risk register is reviewed and updated regularly by the board.

Fund raising
The staff have also put on a number of events including ‘soups and puds’ lunches to support the bursary fund, which ensures so many people are not left out.
Financial Review
Investment powers
The Trustees may invest funds as they see fit, subject to the laws and regulations in place at the time.
Reserves policy
The reserves policy of Marrick Priory is to maintain sufficient free reserves (total reserves less restricted funds and fixed assets) to enable the centre to meet three months expenditure. This is currently £112,000. The current level of free reserves, net of designated funds, amounts to £77,123. The Trustees are conscious of the need to raise additional funds in order to support the ongoing , regular work of the Charity.
Principal funding sources
The majority of the Charity’s income is derived from its charitable activities, through the provision of outdoor activities.
Statement of Trustees Responsibilities
The Trustees (who are also the directors of Marrick Priory Trust for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ report and the financial statements in accordance with the United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice) and applicable law and regulations.
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 they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
Select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently
-
Observe the methods and principles in the charities SORP
-
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; and

Prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business
The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charitable company’s transactions and 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.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2023.
This report is made solely to the charitable company’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and the charitable company’s trustees as a body in accordance with section 154 of the Charities Act 2011. My independent examiner’s work has been undertaken so that I might state to the charitable company’s trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an independent examiner’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company, the charitable company’s members as a body and the charitable company’s trustees as a body for my independent examiner’s work, for this report, or for the opinions I have formed.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity’s trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (‘the 2006 Act’).
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity’s accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.
Independent examiner’s statement
Since the Company’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies.
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or
-
The accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS102).
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.

17 MOVEMENT IN FUNDS - continued
The General Fund meets all the general operating costs of the charity.
The Development Fund was established to fund the acquisition and refurbishment of The Prioress' House, and the existing Priory together with the construction of new facilities and accommodation.The Trustees now consider that the original restriction was discharged following the original acquisition and refurbishment, and that the monies now set aside for future development are, instead, designated funds.
The Bursary Fund was established some years ago to provide financial assistance to those unable to meet the full cost of a visit to the centre. The Fund is represented by money held in current and deposit accounts.
The Outdoor Classroom Fund represented funding from Army Community Covenant Fund and Richmondshire District Council towards the purchase of land and construction of the new outdoor classroom building. The Trustees now consider that the original restriction has been discharged.
The Low Ropes Course Fund represents funding from The Jessica Bethell Charitable Foundation, which the Trustees now consider to be designated rather than restricted.
18 RELATED PARTIES
During the year, Marrick Priory Trust made payments totalling £19,832 in both 2023 and 2022 to the Diocese of Leeds contributing towards the salary and living expenses of the Head of Centre.
