TRUSTEES REPORT
Introduction
The Trustees (who are also directors of the Charity for the purposes of the Companies Act) submit their annual report and the financial statements of Northumberland Rivers Trust (the charitable company) for the year ended 31 March 2021. The Trustees confirm that the annual report and financial statements of the charitable company comply with current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charitable company's governing document and the provisions of the Charities SORP (FRS102).
Legal Status
Northumberland Rivers Trust is a charitable company limited by guarantee, company number 7713172, and is a registered charity, number 1145188. The charity was established under a Memorandum of Association, which established the objectives and powers of the company, and is governed under its Articles of Association. The members of the company are the current trustees and the liability of the members is limited. Every member of the charity promises, if the charity is dissolved while he or she is a member (or within twelve months after he or she ceases to be a member), to contribute such sum (not exceeding £1) as may be demanded of him or her towards the payment of the debts and liabilities of the charity incurred before he or she ceases to be a member, and of the costs, charges and expenses of winding up. For the purposes of company law, the trustees of the charity are directors of the company.
Method of Appointment of Trustees
The management of the charitable company is the responsibility of the Trustees who are appointed under the terms of the Memorandum and Articles of Association. At each annual general meeting one fifth of the directors retire and are eligible for re-election.
Organisational structure and decision making
The Trustees attend Board meetings throughout the period as required (roughly every 2 months), and these meetings form the basis of strategic decision making.
Pete Kerr is the Secretary of the Trust and is employed to work within the Trust on average 2 days per month. Pete Kerr is also commissioned to deliver projects for the Trust through his separate service companies. This approach allows some flexibility of resource in a climate of generally decreasing funds in this sector.
Risk Management
The Trustees have established systems to mitigate risk appropriate to the size of the charity with a focus on finance and Health and Safety. Processes and procedures are reviewed annually by the Trustees and annual refreshment of Health and Safety procedures takes place for all staff, Trustees and volunteers.

Wider network
Northumberland Rivers Trust is part of a growing movement: there are now over fifty rivers trusts in England and Wales, covering most of the river catchments. The rivers trusts are affiliated to an umbrella organisation, The Rivers Trust, which acts as a point of liaison between them, sharing information and best practice, and coordinating/administering the bids and delivery of specific government / trust funds.
Objectives
The aims of the Trust are as set out in the Memorandum and Articles of Association, namely, to restore and safeguard Northumberland’s rivers and streams.
We are committed to:
Undertake environmental projects with communities and angling clubs to restore and improve habitats;
Share and promote awareness of environmental issue and best practice; Work in partnership with communities, angling clubs, environmental organisations and others to deliver lasting improvements;
Help deliver a Catchment Based Approach to works.
Our area of working is all the rivers and streams that flow into the North Sea north of the Tyne and south of the Tweed as shown by the map below:

NORTHUMBERLAND RIVERS TRUST YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
Activities
The Northumberland Rivers Trust completed two extensive European funded projects in this period. The Water Environment Grant projects on the Aln and Coquet side streams delivered some of our biggest environmental improvements to date. On the Aln we delivered three new technical fish passes and re-furbished a further two. We also engaged with farmers (COVID 19 permitting) to encourage best practice and planted 2000 trees. On the Coquet we delivered a series of wetlands and created roughly 3km of new hedgerow.
We built a fish pass on the Hazon Burn funded by Network Rail and delivered by volunteers. Network Rail also funded a fish pass on the Foxton Burn and we built a further one funded by the Environment Agency.
We carried out extensive walkovers in North Northumberland to identify problems along the streams feeding into Budle Bay. We also shared leaflets throughout the communities in the catchment on issues from septic tanks.
We received some funding from Coca Cola to deliver 11 wetlands in the Wansbeck catchment to reduce sediment and nutrients reaching the stream. We also planted 3000 trees around these wetlands with community volunteers and Coke employees.
We mapped and investigated 341 potential barriers to fish migration in the Coquet catchment and created a prioritized plan for improvements.
The Northumberland Rivers Trust has worked with farmers across the area during this period to raise awareness of diffuse pollution from agricultural land. We believe that this is starting to change behaviours and practices.
Towards the end of the financial year we started an ambitious Lottery Project funded by the Green Recovery Challenge Fund. The Coquet 2020 project started to plant new hedgerows in Spring 2021 with ex-young offenders to improve their skills and future employment opportunities. The project will continue in 2021 and deliver 20 timber fish passes and 20 guided nature walks.
Although the environmental charity sector was significantly impacted by COVID 19, our homebased flexible structure allowed us to continue with our work comparatively normally through the year and we managed to deliver a range of exciting outcomes.
Public Benefit
The trustees have had due regard to the guidance published by the charity commission on public benefit.
The work of the Northumberland Rivers Trust benefits rivers, river wildlife and the people who enjoy rivers and who gain their livelihood from rivers.
6
NORTHUMBERLAND RIVERS TRUST YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
Community engagement is a key element of all our projects as we recognise that people are only likely to care for their river if they enjoy and understand it. This is achieved by running events and holding informative public meetings.
Financial Review
In the period reported, Northumberland Rivers Trust managed to increase its income from £212,514 to £569,479. Much of the funding received is from tranches of local and national government grant monies for major projects, working with partners such as the Environment Agency and Rural Payments Agency. This year we have actively sought to broaden the funding base with some success in securing funding from Big Lottery, The Rivers Trust and Barratt Homes. We believe that this broader financing will become increasingly important in the coming years.
Due to the increased funding, there was an increase in expenditure from £248,145 to £419,309 which resulted in an overall increase in reserves from £3,556 to £154,226.
Reserves Policy and Going Concern
The trustees have reviewed the charity’s needs for reserves in line with guidance issued by the Charity Commission.
The Trustees keep their reserves policy and level of reserves held under review, monitoring the level of reserves held throughout the year as part of the normal monitoring and budgetary process. The main risks to both Income and expenditure are highlighted, and the level of committed expenditure taken into account. The majority of the charity’s income continues to be project specific, this limits our ability to create a reserve, however the Trust continues to look to bring in other non-specific income and will look at ways to use this to create a reserve to secure the Trusts future.
The Trustees
The trustees who served the charity during the year were as follows:
S M Renwick Dr J B Hogger C W Lucas - Deceased October 2020 A E Collingwood-Cameron G C Hodgson J W Jackson Ms J C Jonczyk R J Inverarity
Sadly we lost one of our Trustees, Mr C Lucas, in October 2020. Chris’ excellent support and advice to the Trust will be sorely missed.

NORTHUMBERLAND RIVERS TRUST YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
Plans for the future
We will continue to deliver cost effective and inclusive projects to improve our rivers and streams. We will seek to secure a second lottery funded project in the next 12 months, either focusing on the Wansbeck or the Blyth. We will continue to collaborate with partner organisations and seek opportunities to share expertise and opportunities. We will further increase our efforts on communications so that more people value and support measures to improve our rivers and streams. We will continue to explore funding from businesses such as Coca Cola and continue to diversify our funding streams. We do not intend to expand at present as we feel that our current level of costs and expenditure is sustainable whereas expansion could lead to concerns and challenges in the future.
Statement of Trustees Responsibilities
The trustees are responsible for preparing the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales 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 charity for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures that must be disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations and the provisions of the constitution. 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.
