Independent Examiner’s Report to the Members of Great Grimsby Ice Factory Trust

I report on the accounts of Great Grimsby Ice Factory Trust for the year ended 31 March 2022, which are set out on pages 10 to 23.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The trustees (who are also the directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Charities Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

It is my responsibility to:

Basis of independent examiner’s report

My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.

Independent Examiner’s statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention to indicate that:

GREAT GRIMSBY ICE FACTORY TRUST

Notes to the financial Statements For the year ended 31 March 2022

1.5. Fund accounting

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors. Restricted funds are accounted for separately to each other and to the core funding of the Company.

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in the furtherance of the general objectives of the charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.

1.6. Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings: ● Expenditure on charitable activities includes the costs of all activities

undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support

costs.

The Charity is VAT registered, any irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

1.7. Allocation of support costs

Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include back office costs, finance and governance costs which support the Charities activities.

All activities undertaken by the Charity are in furtherance of the charitable objects therefore all support costs have been allocated to charitable activities. A full breakdown of all costs related to Charitable Activities has been provided in Note 5.

1.8. Tangible fixed assets and depreciation

Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over its expected useful life.

Company Number: 07990488 Charity Number: 1146988

GREAT GRIMSBY ICE FACTORY TRUST

Notes to the financial Statements For the year ended 31 March 2022

1.9. Operating leases

Rentals applicable to operating leases are charged to the SOFA over the period in which the cost is incurred.

1.10. Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

1.11. Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

1.12. Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity 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 and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

2. Income and Expenditure Account

The Company is a charity and so achievements cannot be measured by normal commercial criteria. Accordingly, the Directors consider that it would be inappropriate to present a Profit and Loss Account in one of the formats set out by the Companies Act 2016. Therefore, as permitted by the Companies Act, in order to reflect the special nature of the company’s activities, the Directors are of the opinion that it would be more appropriate to present an Income and Expenditure Account.

A brief description of the Restricted Funds are given below:

Peterson’s Project – This relates to two Historical buildings on Grimsby Dock (Peterson’s Smokehouse & Building 89) which have been in disrepair for many years. The Great Grimsby Ice Factory Trust have agreed a 99 year lease with Associated British Ports (ABP).

Funding has been approved form the National Lottery Heritage Fund and the Architectural Heritage Fund, repairs are due to take place during 2021. This funding is received in arrears upon submission of claim forms, a debtor is recorded for expenditure made and not yet claimed.

www.thekasbah.co.uk – Restricted funding was received from the National Lottery Heritage Fund to develop a digital project regarding The Kasbah to engage people in Heritage and the commercial potential of the historic buildings. The layout and landscape of docks, quays, transport systems and collection of specialised building types found in the Kasbah forms the most important, surviving representation of industrial scale fishing trade in England (Matthew Whitfield, 2009). The Kasbah also forms an important part of the setting of the grade I listed Dock Tower, and the grade II* listed Ice Factory.
