TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
COGGES HERITAGE TRUST
The trustees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2020.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006 and "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)".
Objectives and activities
The objectives of the Trust are to preserve, protect, develop and improve the archaeological, historical, architectural and environmental heritage of the site of Cogges Manor Farm and associated land, for the benefit of the people of Oxfordshire and the members of the wider public such as visitors to the county; and to advance the education of the public in an understanding of rural heritage and contemporary and future farming and food production.
The Trust, with the continued support of its volunteers and paid staff, continues to be a strong attraction to the local community as well as those from further afield, and Trustees are always mindful of the need to review the offer to the public on a regular basis to ensure their continued support.
The closure of the Cogges site at the end of March 2020, due to the coronavirus pandemic, has naturally had an effect on the financial position of the Trust, with admission sales from visitors being almost £100,000 less than in the previous year. The Trustees took every possible action to mitigate this loss of income during the year including furloughing staff under the government's Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme where possible and minimising other expenditure. They also applied for a number of grants available to support the heritage sector and secured a government backed ‘bounce back loan’ of £50,000. The site reopened in July 2020 on a controlled basis and visitor numbers were encouraging before the second coronavirus lock down which fortunately coincided with the winter closure season. Major events also had to be cancelled including the beer festival and theatre productions, all of which contribute to Cogges financial viability. In addition Cogges Heritage Enterprises had to defer all weddings until 2021 resulting in no return of profit to the Trust and the annual recharge by the Trust to Enterprises being significantly reduced from an average of £65,000 to about £11,000. The situation was managed during the year by the Trust delegating to a small group of Trustees the power to act on behalf of the Trust in order to manage the effects of the closure. Weekly meetings were held remotely with the Director and notes of the meetings made available to all Trustees. The Trustees are confident that through their positive actions the Charity is in a strong position to re-emerge from the pandemic and rebuild the offer and visitor numbers from 2021 onwards.
Over the past few years negotiations have been taking place with Oxfordshire County Council (OCC), the owners of the majority of the Cogges freehold, to acquire the freehold. Transfer of the freehold to the Trust was completed at the end of March 2020. In order to relinquish the existing lease OCC have paid the Trust £1 million, at least two thirds of which has to be spent on renovating the two major barn roofs. Trustees have awarded a contract for the works in two phases over winters 2020/21 and 2012/22 and by the end of the financial year significant work had been undertaken on the wheat barn.
The ‘Cogges: Next Steps’ project has also progressed with a target of undertaking most of the physical works by July 2021. Staff have also been appointed in support of the educational and community engagement aspects of the project. Some slippage of the project may occur due to the pandemic but NLHF are fully informed and supportive of actions being taken.
The NLHF’s award will support a suite of interpretation and capital work to improve the overall visitor experience and encourage a wider spread of audiences, with a particular focus on adults without dependants, groups and the growth of school visits. The enhanced heritage offer combined with improved infrastructure will support growth in visitor numbers from the current level of c.40,000, as well as offering greater opportunities to increase secondary catering and retail spend.

COGGES HERITAGE TRUST
TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
Achievements and performance
Financial review
For 2020 the Group achieved a surplus after depreciation, in respect of unrestricted activities of £328,528 (£28,680 deficit, 2019). This surplus does, however, include £333,333 of unrestricted funds received from Oxfordshire County Council relating to the transfer of the freehold of Cogges to the Trust. But for this, the Trust would have achieved incurred a deficit of £4,805.
The Group achieved a surplus in restricted funds of £710,546, which includes £666,667 of funds received from Oxfordshire County Council relating to the transfer of the freehold of Cogges to the Trust. The Group achieved an overall surplus of £1,039,074.
During the year, as a result of the coronavirus pandemic, the Group received grants totalling £34,396 under the government's Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme, £25,000 of local government grants and two £50,000 government backed bounce back loans , of which £834 of interest paid for by the government is included as a restricted fund income. The grants received by the subsidiary are included within Other Trading Activities. These grants and loans allowed the Group to retain staff and continue funding the operations and trading activities of the Group as much as possible throughout the year.
The details of the financial performance are shown in the following statements of account for the year ended 31 December 2020.
The Trust continues to charge its subsidiary Cogges Heritage Enterprises Limited for use of Trust resources including staffing, based upon apportioning those costs which relate to the daily operation of both organisations on the basis of the percentage of total income generated by the respective organisations, excluding certain income such as grants and gift aid. This basis of apportionment will be kept under review. Any profit the trading Company makes after these charges may be donated to the Trust.
The Trust has determined that it will maintain a cash reserve of £90,000 equivalent to a three year cash deficit of £30,000 or approximately three months operating costs. This will be kept under review.
At the year end, the group had total reserves of £1,454,966 (2019 - £415,892) and available reserves of
£523,08 6 (2019 - £360,097).
The Trust’s current policy concerning the payment of trade creditors is to follow the CBI’s Prompt Payers Code (copies are available from the CBI, Centre Point, 103 New Oxford Street, London WC1A 1DU ).
Structure, governance and management
The Trustees have met every other month and are advised by the Trust’s Director, Colin Shone. The Trustees have established four committees reporting directly to the Trust Board: Finance and Property Committee, People and Legal Committee, Business Development Group and Development Committee.
The appointment of new Trustees is by resolution of the existing Trustees. The Trust’s constitution provides for a minimum of 5 Trustees (unless otherwise determined by ordinary resolution) but there is no maximum number of Trustees. Two places on the Trust board were reserved for the nominees of the Oxfordshire County Council up until March 2020 and two must be resident in Witney or one of the surrounding parishes.
None of the Trustees has any beneficial interest in the Trust or Company. All of the Trustees are members of the Company and guarantee to contribute £1 in the event of a winding up.
The Trustees have developed a risk management strategy which comprises (i) an annual review of the risks faced by the charity, and (ii) the establishment of systems and procedures designed to manage those risks identified.
The primary risk faced by the Trust is that it is unable to identify and secure sufficient funding to keep the site open to the public. Work continues to identify new sources of funding and to explore the developments which need to be made to the site to attract a wider range of visitors in the future.

COGGES HERITAGE TRUST
STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2020
The trustees, who are also the directors of Cogges Heritage Trust for the purpose 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 which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that year.
In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
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 charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the 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 charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

COGGES HERITAGE TRUST
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF COGGES HERITAGE TRUST
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Cogges Heritage Trust (the ‘ parent charity’) and its subsidiary (the 'group') for the year ended 31 December 2020 which comprise the statement of financial activities, the consolidated and charity balance sheet s, the consolidated statement of cash flows and the notes to the financial statements, 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 charitable company's affairs as at 31 December 2020 and of the group's incoming resources and application of resources, 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.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’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 charity’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.
Other information
The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor's 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 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.

COGGES HERITAGE TRUST
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED) TO THE TRUSTEES OF COGGES HERITAGE TRUST
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
the information given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the trustees' r eport; or
-
sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the s tatement of trustees' r esponsibilities, the trustees, who are also the directors of the parent charity for the purpose of company law, are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being 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 charity’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 charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

COGGES HERITAGE TRUST
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED) TO THE TRUSTEES OF COGGES HERITAGE TRUST
Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
We have been appointed as auditor under section 151 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.
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 auditor's 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:
Based on our understanding of the group, we identified that the principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations related to the misuse and misallocation of charity funds, and the risk of income being materially misstated due to fraud. We considered the extent to which non-compliance might have a material effect on the financial statements, and considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the financial statements such as the Charities Act. 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 related to income.
Audit procedures performed included:
-
Discussion amongst the audit team regarding the susceptibility of the client to fraud;
-
Consideration of the risk of fraud when documenting and reviewing internal controls and procedures;
-
Enquiring of management how they: assess the risk of fraud; and identify and respond to the risks of fraud;
-
Enquiring of management whether they have any knowledge of actual or suspected frauds or noncompliance with laws and regulations ;
-
Review of how those charged with governance exercise oversight of management's process for identifying and responding to the risk of fraud;
-
Substantive testing of income and debtors;
-
Review conditions attached to government grants and ensure adherence to these conditions;
-
Substantive testing of restricted fund expenditure ;
-
Substantive testing on payroll costs, including vouching the existence of employees;
-
Sample testing of Coronavirus Job Retention Scheme income to ensure compliance with the conditions of the scheme;
-
Review of journals for unusual items;
-
Review of bank reconciliations for evidence of window dressing; and
-
Review of minutes of meetings of those charged with governance.
There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above. We are less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations that are not closely related to events and transactions reflected in the financial statements. Also, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion.

The group consists of the charity Cogges Heritage Trust and its 100% subsidiary Cogges Heritage Enterprises Limited.
A separate Statement of Financial Activities and Income and Expenditure Account for the charity has not been presented because the charity has taken advantage of the exemption afforded by Companies Act 2006, s. 408.
1.1 Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Companies Act 2006 and "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 charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling , which is the functional currency of the charity . Monetary a mounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain financial instruments at fair value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
1.2 Going concern
As at the point of signing the accounts, there is an ongoing worldwide pandemic of Covid-19. This outbreak of Covid-19 is causing restrictions on the population in the UK, which is having an impact on the financial activity of the whole economy. The effects on the UK economy and Cogges Heritage Trust cannot be quantified with any accuracy at this point in time, but the trustees will continue to manage the trust through this position .
1.3 Charitable funds
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.
1.4 Income
Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received. Income is shown net of VAT where applicable.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Income from grants is recognised where there is entitlement and all conditions for receipt have been met.
Income from charitable activities includes income recognised as earned (as the related goods or services are provided) under contract.

1.5 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as the liability is incurred. Expenditure includes any VAT which cannot be recovered, and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates.
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services to beneficiaries. It includes both the costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.
Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include the auditor's fees linked to the strategic management of the charity.
1.6 Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
Freehold property improvements 10% straight line Leasehold property improvements 10% straight line Plant and machinery 25% reducing balance Fixtures and fittings 20% reducing balance
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year.
1.7 Impairment of fixed assets
At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any ) .
1.8 Stocks
Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell . Cost comprises direct materials and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the stocks to their present location and condition .
1.9 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.
1.10 Financial instruments
The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.
Financial instruments are recognised in the charity 's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

(Continued)
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future p aymen ts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity ’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
1.11 Taxation
Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all timing differences and deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. Such assets and liabilities are not recognised if the timing difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the tax profit nor the accounting profit.
The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at each reporting end date and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Deferred tax is calculated at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period when the liability is settled or the asset is realised. Deferred tax is charged or credited in the profit and loss account , except when it relates to items charged or credited directly to equity, in which case the deferred tax is also dealt with in equity. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are offset when the company has a legally enforceable right to offset current tax assets and liabilities and the deferred tax assets and liabilities relate to taxes levied by the same tax authority.
1.12 Employee benefits
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.
1.13 Retirement benefits
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.
2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.

On 25th March 2020, Cogges Heritage Trust acquired Cogges Manor Farm from Oxfordshire County Council.

As a condition of the transfer of the title to the property, Oxfordshire County Council hold the option of repurchasing the property at a cost of £1 on completion of set conditions. The conditions specified are that either the Cogges Manor Farm Heritage Centre is permanently closed to members of the public, or that the Trust serves written notice to Oxfordshire County Council of it's intention to dispose of the property. This option is available to Oxfordshire County Council for 125 years from the date of the transfer of the property, being 25th March 2020.

The bank loan s comprise two £50,000 government backed bounce back loan s, one taken out by the Charity and the other by the subsidiary. Both are repayable by instalments in the six years to May 2026 incurring interest at 2.5% per annum.
No repayments fall due in the first 12 months and the first 12 months interest is paid by the government, shown as grant income.
Despite this fact, the charity has opted to repay the full amount outstanding of its bounce back loan of £50,000 in June 2021. The outstanding balance on this loan is therefore £nil. No additional charges or obligations have arisen from this repayment.

26 Financial commitments, guarantees and contingent liabilities
A contract was entered into on 24 September 2020 in relation to the re-roofing and structural repairs of a barn at Cogges Manor Farm.
The work in relation to these repairs is scheduled to commence on 1 November 2021, with no work being completed prior to this date.
The sum agreed as being payable for this contract amount to £228,038.

The work in relation to these repairs commenced on 5 October 2020, with some expenditure being incurred during the current financial year.
Of the total sum agreed for this contract, £311,816, the total expenditure incurred in the financial year to 31 December 2020 is £98,614. As at the year end, the expected expenditure remaining amounted to £213,202.

27 Events after the reporting date
At the year end the group had two outstanding government backed bounce back loans of £50,000, one taken out by the Charity and the other by the subsidiary. Both are repayable by instalments in the six years to May 2026 incurring interest at 2.5% per annum.
No repayments fall due in the first 12 months and the first 12 months interest is paid by the government, shown as grant income.
Despite this fact, the charity has opted to repay the full amount outstanding of its bounce back loan of £50,000 in June 2021. The outstanding balance on this loan is therefore £nil. No additional charges or obligations have arisen from this repayment.
