## **RIPON MUSEUM TRUST**
(A charity and company limited by guarantee)
## **TRUSTEES’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024**
The Trustees, who are also the directors for the purposes of company law, present their report and the unaudited financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2024.
## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES**
## **Objectives**
The objective of the Charitable Company as stated in our constitution of 4[th] October 2022 is:
_The provision and maintenance of museums in or near Ripon for the exhibition to the public of articles of literary, artistic, scientific, cultural or historic interest._
## **Our vision** :
We will use our heritage assets to inspire people to seek a fairer society.
## **Our mission:**
We will use the unique trio of the Workhouse, Prison & Police and Courthouse Museums, collections and the stories they tell to help people explore big issues such as fairness, equality, justice and welfare. Through excellent engagement, programming and outreach, together we will inspire people to become compassionate and active citizens, shaping society for the better. We will work for greater participation in our heritage which will enrich lives and improve wellbeing. Volunteering is integral to our organisation; at our core we work as one team. We will make a positive impact on Ripon and the region’s cultural and economic capital.
## **Our Strategic Aims:**
To deliver our mission we have seven Strategic Aims:
- Conserve, manage and develop knowledge of our heritage assets, reducing their impact on the environment and using them to improve people’s health, wellbeing and enjoyment.
- Deliver excellent programmes of learning and interpretation which cause people to reflect on big issues about social justice.
- Provide excellent visitor services and develop new audiences.
- Develop our skills and networks to strengthen volunteering and build strong community and participatory resources and ways of working.
- Maximise RMT’s contribution to the cultural and economic capital of the region.
- Increase inclusivity and equality of opportunity in all that we do.
- Generate sustainable financial resources and develop a resilient organisation and skilled people.
These strategic aims each have a set of actions under them which form the basis of our annual development plan, which guides the work of the Charitable Company. Progress against these aims is monitored and reported at the trustee meetings throughout the year.

## **Public Benefit Activities**
The Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty under section 4 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission and the Trustees have paid due regard to this guidance on deciding what activities the charity should undertake. The Trustees consider that all the activities set out in this report have been undertaken to further the charitable purposes for the public benefit. Full description of the key elements of our public benefit are detailed on the following pages.
## **ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE**
## _**Visitor performance**_
We were pleased to see our post Covid recovery continue in 2023/24. Museum visits continued on an upward trend between April 23 and March 24, with visitor numbers up 12.6% on the previous year, despite the external pressures of the cost-of-living crisis.

## **TRUSTEES’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024**
## **People**
## _**Volunteers**_
Like many others in the charitable sector, recruiting and retaining volunteers remains a challenge, particularly post pandemic. We simply couldn’t operate without the commitment and enthusiasm of volunteers who fulfil a wide range of roles for us including front of house, gardening, learning, research and maintenance, without whom the museums would be unable to function. We have welcomed an additional 19 volunteers during the year and continuing to grow and diversify our volunteer cohort is a key priority for us in 2024/25.
## _**Staff**_
Significant work has taken place during this accounting period to invest in our staff and volunteer team. All staff received a 5% pay rise and changes to the organisational structure meant changes in roles to help to build capacity. This resulted in the creation of a new function of ‘Visitor Experience and Volunteering’ enabling a greater focus on our programme and volunteer journey. Some of our staff moved onto the next stage in their careers during this period. Our Duty Officer, Operations Officer, Marketing Manager and Visitor Experience & Volunteer Manager all moved on to pastures new. In April 2023, RMT was pleased to appoint Alexa Vernon as Interim Director. Previously a member of RMT Board, Alexa was then appointed permanent Director of Museums in September 2023.
## **Development work supported by National Lottery Heritage Fund and Arts Council England**
## _**Ripon Museums: Inspiration for a Fairer Future Project**_
Key activity in this financial year has been progressing our ‘Inspiration for a Fairer Future’ project. Just before Christmas 2021 RMT was awarded a Development Phase grant of £99,396 from The National Lottery Heritage Fund to progress the project. The full cost of the development phase project meant that RMT needed to invest significantly from reserves to deliver this phase of the project.
Due to the change in Director partway through the development phase, and other changes in the staff team, RMT were granted an extension of the development phase meaning that the deadline for submitting the delivery phase application was moved to 30 May 2024. RMT worked with a cohort of consultants to develop the project including specialists in project management, evaluation, activity planning, interpretation, fundraising and capital works. Due to challenges in the development phase bid, and cost increases in the capital works the overall project increased from £2.17M to £3.3M meaning that the fundraising requirement to meet the match requirement also increased. In March 2024 RMT received the welcome news that the UK Shared Prosperity fund awarded the project £261k of funding with other significant applications to Trusts and Foundations pending.
The project aims to enhance visitor experiences, attract diverse audiences and preserve local heritage. It will focus on essential repairs at the Workhouse Museum and manage 8,700 artefacts from the Prison & Police Museum currently in storage. Additionally, the project will unify interpretation and activities across the museums, continuing to act as a powerful learning

environment, exploring the evolving history and modern context of social justice and the broader heritage of Ripon.
## _**Arts Council England National Portfolio Organisation**_
Our second round of Arts Council England (ACE) funding as a National Portfolio Organisation (NPO) began in April 2023 for a three-year period, ending in March 2026. We are incredibly grateful to receive £142,576 a year from ACE to deliver activity that delivers their Let’s Create strategy, the core aim of which is that, ‘ _By 2030 we want England to be a country in which the creativity of each of us is valued and given the chance to flourish, and where every one of us has access to a remarkable range of high quality cultural experiences_ .’
Our NPO programme demonstrates how we deliver the ACE outcomes and how their four Investment Principles (ambition and quality, dynamism, inclusivity and relevance and environmental responsibility) are applied across the organisation.
## _**Reserves**_
The total funds held by the Charitable Company are £586,830 of which £350,000 are restricted. Therefore, free reserves are £236,830.
In 2022/23 the free reserves of the charity were £323,587. The reduction in free reserves represents the investment the Board made to the development of the ’Inspiration for a Fairer Future’ project. The reserves in our unrestricted account at the end of March 2024 represents more than six months of trading.
## **Financial review of 23/24**
Our last set of accounts covered a 15-month period as we transitioned to financial reporting that covered the financial year as opposed to the calendar year. As such, whilst it may look like the admissions income for 23/24 of £163,746 is lower than the £168,507 reported in our previous set of accounts, when taking a 12-month period into account it is an increase in admissions income of close to 8% over the comparable period. This accounting period represented the best year the museum has ever had for admissions income and our learning performance of £43,085 also represented an improvement on the previous year. The increase in footfall drove sales in the shop which brought in £17,328 in the financial year compared to a 15-month performance in the previous set of accounts of £14,776.
A resilient source of income for us has been our paranormal income. Hiring out the museum in the evening to paranormal groups has brought in £14,696 this financial year. Fundraising income reduced during this period and will be a focus in the next accounting period.
RMT received government grants in the accounting period of £142,576 from Arts Council England and £43,458 from The National Lottery Heritage Fund.
RMT Board gave a pay rise of 5% to all staff for this accounting period which increased staff costs. Despite the wage increase, due to staff vacancies throughout the year staffing costs did not increase on the previous year.

## **RIPON MUSEUM TRUST**
(A charity and company limited by guarantee)
## **TRUSTEES’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024**
Utility costs also increased during this period. RMT’s gas and electricity contracts were renewed at a time of considerable increases in energy prices and were fixed for three years. This practically doubled the amount that RMT paid for their gas and electricity from £21,762 in the previous 15-month period to £39,059 in this accounting period.
RMT Board are pleased to note that the unrestricted performance is an excess of income over expenditure of £21,324. This was achieved by growing visitor numbers and controlling costs, despite increases in overheads. The other key feature of this financial period is the planned investment in the ‘Inspiration for a Fairer Future’ project. The project aims to enhance visitor experiences, attract diverse audiences and preserve Ripon’s heritage. It will focus on essential repairs at the Workhouse Museum and manage artefacts from our collection. The project will unify interpretation across all three museums, exploring the themes of fairness, justice and poverty. RMT Board are confident that the investment from reserves into the ‘Inspiration for a Fairer Future project’ will maximise the chances of a successful delivery phase application to the Heritage Fund in May 2025.
The final position for the accounting period is a deficit of £151,891 reflects the planned investment to the ‘Fairer Future’ project.
We are grateful to the whole staff and volunteer team who contributed to the performance and for all their effort and passion throughout the year.
## **Risk Management Policy**
The Trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. As part of our reporting processes to Arts Council England we must report on risk quarterly. We have created an organisational risk register that is reviewed quarterly by Board and there is a separate risk register for the ‘Inspiration for a Fairer Future’ Project for specific project related risks. RMT conforms to all standards required including safeguarding, health and safety, data protection etc. A Health and Safety Consultant and HR consultant is retained by the Trust. Looking ahead to 2024/25, one of the biggest risks to the organisation is volunteer capacity therefore a volunteer development strategy is being created.
## **PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS**
Through robust financial management, the successful application to continue to be an ACE National Portfolio Organisation and our ‘Inspiration for a Fairer Future’ project we are fortunate to be in a very positive position to pursue our objectives in 2024/25.
Our activity as an NPO will ensure we deliver two of the three ‘Let’s Create’ strategy outcomes namely; ‘ _Creative People; everyone can develop and express creativity throughout their life’_ and _‘Cultural communities; Villages, towns and cities thrive through a collaborative approach to culture’._ It will enable us to become closer to our communities and understand their needs better, becoming more sustainable and resilient in the longer term. Our ‘Creative Conversations’ model will continue, whereby we work an artist and marginalised communities to give them a voice through a creative output. We will create longer lasting partnerships and stakeholder networks that allow us to embed organisational change and learning. We will build

better evaluative frameworks for our work so that we can measure the impact that we’re having, and we’ll build evaluation skills across or staff and volunteer team.
Our ‘Inspiration for a Fairer Future’ project will be pursued as we progress the Development Phase with a delivery phase bid to the Heritage Fund planned for May 2024.
## _**Strategy development**_
Our vision and mission remain a touchstone for all that we do and help to guide our decision making. It played a pivotal role in our applications for funding to Arts Council England and The National Lottery Heritage Fund.
In 2024/25 we aim to maximise the development work undertaken as part of the Heritage Fund development project to help us to understand our audiences better and continue to drive visitors to the museums. Whilst maintaining our core audience, we will develop our messaging and offer for the family audience- a key growth area for us.

## **Appointment of new Trustees**
## _**Recruitment, appointment and induction of Trustees**_
Appointment of Trustees is governed by the Constitution. The charity may by ordinary resolution appoint a person who is willing to act to be a director and determine the rotation in which any additional directors are to retire. Directors may serve for three years, and outgoing directors may be re-elected for a further three years on two consecutive occasions but will then not be eligible for re-election for a further year. They may become a co-opted member during this period. The Board is authorised to co-opt new Trustees to fill vacancies arising through resignation or death of an existing Trustee. Those co-opted serve until the following AGM when they are normally eligible for election by the AGM.
## **Governance**
## _**New Board appointments**_
At the 12-month period ending March 2024 there were nine Trustees. At the AGM held 11 January 2024, Steven Revell stood down from the Board as did Alexa Vernon, due to her appointment as Director of Museums. Richard Taylor and Amanda Whitehead stood down from being Chair and Vice-Chair respectively but remained on the Board as co-opted members. Existing Board members Robert Ling and Caroline Lewis-Jones were appointed Chair and Vice-Chair respectively.
Martin Webber offered to stand again and was proposed and seconded. Richard Pollitt and Rebecca Crallan were co-opted until the AGM and offered themselves for election. They were both duly proposed and seconded and were appointed. Given the significant amount of change taking place in the organisation at the time, retaining the skills and knowledge of longstanding Board members and ensuring that the Chair and Vice Chair positions were filled by individuals who know and understand the charity will give stability to the organisation while providing the ambition to drive our development.
The Trust has a trustee induction pack containing all relevant policies, procedures and documentation. New Trustees meet with the Chair and the Museum Director for initial induction sessions as well as meeting key members of staff. Trustees are encouraged to attend relevant training, especially sessions on governance provided by the Association of Independent Museums.
## **Relationship to Unincorporated Charity number 512913**
This was the original charity for the Trust prior to Incorporation in 2012. All assets and liabilities have been transferred from this charity to the new incorporated charity. On 13 March 2024, it was confirmed that the lease of the Prison and Police Museum was transferred from charity number 512913 to charity 1141462.

## **TRUSTEES’ FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITIES**
Company law requires the Trustees of the Charitable Company to prepare financial statements that give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charitable Company at the end of the financial year and of its surplus or deficit for the financial year.
In preparing those financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
- a) Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently.
- b) Make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; and
- c) State whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements.
- d) 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 proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy the financial position of the Charitable Company, and which enables them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. The Trustees 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.
In accordance with company law, as the company’s directors, we certify that:
- so far as we are aware, there is no relevant information of which the company’s independent examiners are unaware; and
- as the directors of the company, we have taken all the steps that we ought to have taken in order to make ourselves aware of any relevant information and to establish that the Charitable Company’s independent examiners are aware of that information.
This report is prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice - Accounting and Reporting by Charities and in accordance with special provisions of the Small Companies Regime.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES**
I report to the Charitable Company’s Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Charitable Company for the year ended 31 March 2024, which are set out on pages 12 to 23.
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.

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.

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:
1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
3. 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
4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities.

## **RIPON MUSEUM TRUST**
## (A company limited by guarantee) **NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS FOR YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024**
## **1 GENERAL INFORMATION**
The Charitable Company is a private company limited by guarantee, which is incorporated and registered in England and Wales (no.07465640). It was registered as a charity on 14 April 2011. The Charity number is 1141462.
The address of its registered office is The Workhouse Museum, 75 Allhallowgate, Ripon, HG4 1LE.
## **2 ACCOUNTING POLICIES**
## **2.1 Basis of preparation of accounts**
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 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.
Ripon Museum 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 note(s).
## **2.2 Going Concern policy**
The Trustees have prepared financial projections, taking into consideration the current economic climate and its potential impact on the sources of income and planned expenditure. They have a reasonable expectation that adequate financial resources are available to enable the charity to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future, and have adequate contingency plans in the event that income streams are reduced. Consequently the financial statements have been prepared on the basis that the charity is a going concern.
## **2.3 Fund accounting**
The trustees have a defined policy for identification of different types of income:
- a) Designated funds are unrestricted funds but are specifically earmarked by the Trustees for a particular purpose.
- b) Restricted funds are only to be used for the specific purpose laid down by the donor. Expenditure which meets this criteria is charged to the fund.
- c) Unrestricted funds are the residue of incoming resources receivable or generated from the objects of the charity without further specified purposes and are available as general funds.
## **2.4 Income**
All income is recognised in the statement of financial activities when the conditions for receipt have been met and there is reasonable assurance of receipt. Except for the following:
## _Grants receivable_
Grants for immediate expenditure are accounted for when they become receivable. Grants received for specific purposes are treated as restricted funds. Grants which are received for a future accounting period are deferred and recognised in those periods.
Capital Grants for specific fixed assets are included in restricted income when received. Once the asset is purchased these monies are transferred to unrestricted funds unless there is a restriction on the disposal of the asset. If so, the net book value of the asset is shown as a restricted fund.

## **RIPON MUSEUM TRUST** (A company limited by guarantee) **NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS**
## **FOR YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024**
## **2 ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)**
## **2.5 Expenditure**
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be fully recovered and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates.
- Costs of raising funds costs associated with attracting voluntary income. Charitable activities - costs incurred by the Charitable Company in delivering its services to clients. Support costs - allocated to charitable activities on an equal basis.
## **2.6 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation**
Fixed assets (including Heritage assets) for the Charitable Company to use are capitalised at cost, for items above £1,000. Donated assets are valued at market value on donation. They are stated in the accounts at cost/original value less depreciation.
Depreciation is calculated to write off the cost or valuation of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:
Plant and machinery 10% straight line basis
Heritage assets are not depreciated but maintained in good working order.
## **2.7 Stock**
Stock is valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
## **2.8 Debtors**
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid after taking account of any trade discounts due.
## **2.9 Cash at bank and in hand**
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and call deposits, and other short-term highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to a known amount of cash and are subject to an insignificant risk of change in value.
## **2.10 Creditors**
Creditors are recognised where the Charitable Company has a present obligation resulting 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 after allowing for any trade discounts due.
## **2.11 Financial Instruments**
The Charitable 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.
## **2.12 Pension costs**
The Charitable Company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions are charged in the Statement of Financial Activities as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the scheme.
## **2.13 Limited by guarantee**
Each member's liability is limited to £10 in the case of winding up of the Charitable Company.
