COGGES HERITAGE TRUST TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
Page 1
The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2024. This report includes the directors' report required by company law.
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 Trustees are aware of their public benefit duties and confirm that they have paid due regard to the guidance on public benefit in deciding what activities the Trust should undertake.
Achievements and performance
The Trust, with the support of approximately 160 volunteers and team of 8 paid staff, (FTE 7), continues to be a strong attraction for the local community as well as those from further afield.
In addition to the Queens Award for Voluntary service in 2023 we were awarded, in 2024, the Volunteer Organisation of the year award by Oxfordshire Community and Welfare action. Overseas tour groups also increased in number, drawn in part to due to our association with Downton Abbey as the fictional ‘Yew Tree Farm and home to the Drew Family. The Trust continues to review and refresh the offer to ensure we are current and with a particular focus on families with young children. 2023, although challenging, saw a year-onyear improvement with an upturn in footfall and revenue, additionally we reviewed our pricing to reflect the inflationary pressures. We again continued this upward projection into 2024 by notably running an events program year-round.
Events of note in 2024, ‘the Beer and Cider festival’ sold out and attracted over 1000 visitors, this was also sponsored by over 30 local business, ensuring this was our largest fundraiser of the year. The ‘Witches House’ and all Christmas events also grew substantially from the previous year. We also expanded on corporate hire offering again through the summer and into the Christmas period. School visits continued to be an impactful and educational experience for young people.
We also received grants from the Jim Cousins Trust to develop the meadow for livestock and for ecology and for the benefit of visitors. The National Lottery Heritage Funding (NLHF) finished in December 2023, this funding has been pivotal in our ability to improve the site and ultimately improve our financial performance, this can be seen from 2023 onwards.
Cogges Heritage Enterprises Limited also performed well with café sales recording its strongest year to date, also bolstered by the events program. We also hosted 18 weddings one of which was sole hire of the site.
Financial review
For 2024 the Trust incurred a deficit after depreciation, in respect of unrestricted activities of £70,210 (2023 - £90,581). However before depreciation the deficit on unrestricted funds was £3,802 (2023: £26,727). The details of the financial performance are shown in the following statements of account for the period ended 31 December 2024.
In accordance with the agreement, the Trust continues to charge Cogges Heritage Enterprises 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. For the cafe, the licence fee charged is linked to cafe sales. This basis of apportionment will be kept under review. Any profit the trading Company makes after these charges may be donated to the Trust.

I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Cogges Heritage Trust (the charity) for the year ended 31 December 2024.

In carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
Independent examiner's statement
Since the charity’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.

1 accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
2 the financial statements do not accord with those records; or
-
3 the financial statements 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 financial statements have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).

1 Accounting policies
1.1 Charitable company information
Cogges Heritage Trust is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Cogges Manor Farm, Church Lane, Witney, Oxfordshire, OX28 3LA.
1.2 Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's governing document, the Companies Act 2006, FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”) and the Charities SORP "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 amounts 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:
1.3 Charitable funds
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives. Within unrestricted funds the Trustees may designate funds for particular purposes.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors 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.
The Base Licence fee charge made by the Trust to its subsidiary company, Cogges Heritage Enterprises Limited, for use of its resources, including staffing, is based upon apportioning those costs which relate to the daily operation of both organisations on the percentage of total income generated by the respective organisations, excluding certain income, such as grants and gift aid.
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 from grants is recognised where there is entitlement and all conditions for receipt have been met.
Income from day admissions and events is recognised on the date of admission or the date of the events. Income from annual season tickets is recognised in income over the period in which the season ticket permits admission.

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. No value is recognised for the impact of volunteers in the financial statements because it cannot be measured reliably.
Governance costs include those costs associated with meeting the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include the independent examiner'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, 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 Fixtures, fittings and equipment 20%-25% reducing balance
Depreciation is the main estimate affecting the financial statements
1.7 Fixed asset investments
Fixed asset investments, which consist of investments in subsidiary undertakings, are measured at cost, less impairment.
1.8 Stocks
Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value.
1.9 Cash and cash equivalents and current asset investments
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks and other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less. Longer term cash deposits with financial institutions are presented within current asset investments.
1.10 Retirement benefits
Payments to defined contribution retirement benefit schemes are charged as an expense as they fall due.
1.11 Group accounts exemption
The charitable company has taken advantage of the exemption under section 399 of the Companies Act 2006 not to prepare consolidated accounts, on the basis that the group of which this is the parent qualifies as a small group. Under charities legislation no group accounts are required as the group income is under £1,000,000. The financial statements present information about the company as an individual entity and not about its group.
1.12 Going concern
There are no significant uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.

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.
