SOUTH YORKSHIRE AIRCRAFT MUSEUM

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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).

Purpose of the Charity

The South Yorkshire Aircraft Museum was established in 1974 and is run by volunteers to preserve South Yorkshire's aviation heritage. The Museum was registered as a charity (1051994) on the 15 January 1996 and is an Accredited Museum with the Arts Council England (ACE). The Museum subsequently became incorporated from 1 April 2013 and the Registered Charity number changed to 1149429.

The South Yorkshire Aircraft Museum is committed to enabling as many people as possible to enjoy and learn from the history of aviation and understand its relevance in the South Yorkshire region and beyond. This is achieved through the restoration, preservation and interpretation of our collection of aircraft, historic airfield buildings and other aeronautical artefacts through exhibitions and events for the benefit of the public.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and Activities

In shaping our objectives for the year ahead, and in planning our activities, the Museum has considered the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit and fee charging. The Museum relies on the income from entrance fees, group activities and events to fund our operating costs. Income from our Trading Company, The Doncaster 1909 Aeroplane Company Limited, also supports the Museum in its objectives. In addition, we apply for Grants to support our restoration, building and other projects to enhance the experience of our visitors. In setting the level of fees, charges and concessions, the trustees give careful consideration to the accessibility and affordability of the Museum as a public attraction to those on lower incomes, particularly in the South Yorkshire region.

The Museum's key objectives are:

  1. Ensure financial and operational sustainability through good governance and business practice; diversification of income streams; and through the effective recruitment of suitably skilled volunteers and employees;

  2. Improve the preservation of, and access to, the collection by planning and undertaking restoration projects, maintaining and improving Museum buildings and providing undercover exhibition space for significant and vulnerable objects;

  3. Widening our Education and Leisure offering by attracting more family and school visits; forging stronger links with local schools and communities; and improving awareness of, and access to the museum.

The strategies we employ to achieve these objectives are to:

Consider the needs and requirements of our visitors and plan ways to improve the accessibility of the collection to widen our audience and increase footfall. Regularly review and improve our policies and procedures to meet ACE (Arts Council England) Standards. Assess and review resource requirements and recruit to meet those, ensuring trustees and other volunteers receive effective induction training and ongoing guidance. The Museum also considers ways to diversify and increase our income to meet ever increasing running costs. In addition, we assess, develop and review the Museum's Restoration Project Plan and Buildings Maintenance Plan and monitor progress against these to ensure we meet out charitable objectives.

We also seek support and guidance through membership of the following organisations

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Visitor Numbers

Visitor numbers of 5,976 compared to 18,882 from the previous year reflect the enforced closure due to Covid-19 for much of the year. Regular increases over the past ten years have brought us to a very sustainable level and we hope to return to this quite rapidly once we open post Covid restrictions. The indication from the period we were able to open mid-pandemic would point to there being good demand as soon as we open again. Considerable effort had been put in to publicise the museum and encourage the expansion of our audience pool prior to Covid but we have kept activity to a low level to ensure that we are able to operate safely in the immediate future. Our online presence has been improved with the better use of 'Facebook' to keep our 'watchers' updated and, hopefully, eager to visit. Our shop staff and volunteers deserve credit and praise for their cheerful and enthusiastic efforts in keeping essential activities going and ensuring safe and enjoyable visits during the short summer opening.

Energy Assessment & Report

As improvements to the Museum's buildings continue, great attention is paid to the inclusion of insulation and low energy lighting wherever possible. Energy costs continue to rise slowly, mainly due to the increased amount of restoration work being undertaken, both on aircraft and buildings, for which the use of electric powered tools is necessary. Use of an energy provider cost comparison ensures that the best deal is achieved for the cost of electricity

Visitor Experience

Again, during the short period that we were allowed to open during the pandemic, we managed to keep most of the exhibits safely on view to the public. The main exceptions were some of the more complicated cockpits, quizzes and the 'Dressing up room'. Cafe facilities were very limited with only outside consumption allowed. We were not able to host groups or hold events such as ghost hunts and caravan rallies.

Aircraft Restoration Projects

The majority of restoration projects are carried out on site by our skilled volunteers. All ongoing projects have been considerably disrupted due to many of our volunteers being locked down and unable to attend.

The Dominie is externally completed and looks great next to her former stablemate, the Jetsream which is now virtually completed too.

The Varsity project is completed and back inside the hangar.

More cockpits have been improved and will be able to be added to those available on 'Open Cockpit' days. The Falklands Scout helicopter is now in the restoration process and the tail boom is fully stripped and repaired. The rotorhead and main gearbox has now been completed and the fuselage section is in the workshop and is currently being stripped..

The civil version of the Auster is completed, having been fully re-covered in fabric as well as component refitting. The former National Coal Board Dove has been put back together and is gradually being refurbished.

Vehicle and Engine Projects

Work has started on the RAF Fire engine but progress has been slow due to the lockdown. Various parts of ground equipment have been refurbished.

Buildings Projects

Refurbishment of the original radio room display has been funded and will be completed next year.

A fire escape door has been installed at the far end of Building 19 which is currently allowing us to have a 'one way' system to make things more safe against Covid.

The roof repairs and the replacement of the transparent sections in the main workshop has been completed and, whilst it has solved the urgent leak problem, also has made it much lighter and should help with reducing electricity consumption.

A large sump full of oil from the Yorkshire Water days, has been removed by a certified waste contractor as have old stocks of oil and other chemicals which we have no use for.

A hidden water leak was found behind the workshop in pipes that we did not know were there. This presented us with a possible £3,500 bill but, thanks to Yorkshire Water, this was cancelled. The leak was successfully repaired.

Acquisitions

The Museum continues to acquire small items relevant to the collecting policy for display. No major acquisitions have been made this year for the collection.

Equipment Renewal

The sponsored replacement of the workshop compressor and grit blaster has been completed. A new ride-on lawnmower has been one of the major outlays required during the year.

Education

The Museum continues to promote class/school visits and is continually looking at ways to attract more schools and improve the experience for visiting pupils.

Page 2

SOUTH YORKSHIRE AIRCRAFT MUSEUM

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

The World War 2 exhibits continue to be used for lessons on how people lived during the Second World War. A special collection of objects for handling has been put together for these school visits demonstrated by volunteer helpers and supervised by the teachers.

We will continue to host visits from different groups from the scout movement once we can reopen.

Achievement and Performance Volunteers

Volunteers

The charity is very involved with the community and relies on the continuing support from our volunteers who turn up regularly to help with event delivery and management and the skilled restoration work on the museum exhibits and buildings. Much of the building maintenance is done by qualified volunteers which enables the museum to undertake modernisation that would otherwise be unaffordable. Approximately 40 volunteers from the Museum's membership regularly give their time and the Board of Trustees would like to take this opportunity to thank them for their diligence and loyalty.

Development Plan Volunteer

Volunteers continue to go through the induction in groups or as individuals.

Collection Management

Work continues on the Documentation Back Log Action Plan, dated 30 January 2011. This is an action required by the Accreditation Standards, set by ACE and progress is continuing. Work has been done in the library in preparation for easier access.

Partnerships

The Museum is in partnership with the Northern Battle of Britain Monument Appeal to facilitate the construction of a monument on land adjacent to the Museum.

Sadly, there was no annual lecture sponsored by the Institute of Engineering and Technology at the museum hosted by Dr Mike Diprose but we hope that these can recommence and we thank them for their continued support of the Museum.

The local plastic construction kit club continues to hold monthly meeting at the museum but unfortunately none have been allowed this year. This has affected the usual turnover of models in the shop in addition to the lack of ability to sell the stock to the visitors.

We have hosted 3 paranormal groups investigating the site for any paranormal activity. We already have a backlog of groups wishing to book such events when they are allowed again.

There are regular caravan and motorhome rallies held at the museum by organised and recognised clubs but, like everything else, these have not happened this year. These events usually contribute to the Museum's income and also created many 'ambassadors' who return to their areas with good things to say about this friendly and very interesting place.

Events

None allowed die to Covid-19. Indications are that there are lots of pent up demand for when we return

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

FINANCIAL REVIEW

The Treasurer reports at Committee meetings, the status of the finances and is responsible for reporting any discrepancies in the accounts. All takings are reviewed daily through the shop till and cashing up sheet. Larger amounts e.g. grants, are accounted for individually with bank paying in slips.

Financial Review, Investment Policy and Reserves

The charity has no investments as all monies are held in a charity bank account and are therefore classed as reserves. The monies are used to cover day to day running costs, maintain the museum buildings and to fund projects. The trustees consider that 20% of turnover be kept as a reserve. These funds, currently standing at £25,000 have been set aside to cater for any unforeseen costs with the hope that they will not be required and can then provide 'stake' monies for major projects in the future. This policy of retaining, and gradually increasing, the reserve will continue. Fortunately Government support during the pandemic has enabled the Charity to retain its reserve funds during the period with no other income.

Duty of care

The Trustees are also aware of the duty of care to the public, visitors and the museum membership. The collection and buildings are covered by insurance and the public is covered by third party insurance. The membership and the public are covered by our Third Party Insurance and our employees by Employee Liability Insurance. The Museum also holds a Trustees indemnity policy for the protection of the Trustees. There are also procedures in place to cover Health and Safety issues.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

PLANS FOR THE FUTURE

Sustainability

The Board of Trustees have drawn up a Site Development Plan which includes short and longer term plans for the site. The plan has received high level approval from Doncaster Council and includes the erection of a new display hangar, a new visitor centre and car park improvements. These projects will require external funding and the trustees will be working on this over the next few years.

In addition, the proposed construction of the Northern Battle of Britain Monument will be a joint project, led by a separate organisation in partnership with the museum. Full planning permission has now been approved for the monument.

The museum will continue to seek guidance and support from our Curatorial Advisor, Jude Holland, and our Museums Development Officer, Michael Turnpenny.

A policy to increase our internet visibility is being managed on a voluntary basis by experts under the management of our volunteer, Mal Taylor.

Public admissions, donations, and events income will continue to provide the main operating income for the day to day running costs of the museum. Our Trading Company, The Doncaster 1909 Aeroplane Company Limited, will continue to provide additional income through shop sales. The main source of funding for capital projects will be through Grants.

The 'Exit Survey' put in place to gain feedback from visitors with regard to their experience shows a very positive response from the majority of those completed. It will also give us information on marketing effectiveness from the 'where did you hear about us section' The results of this survey show that we have a great proportion of returning visitors and personal recommendations. The major source of information about the Museum which is attracting visitors is 'The Internet' and steps have been put in place to improve our representation online. Almost all comments are positive with most visitors finding the current 'style' of the Museum a great factor in their enjoyment of their visit. Regular references to the 'helpfulness' and 'friendliness' of staff is a real reflection of the dedication of both staff and volunteers. This exit survey will continue and be improved if found necessary.

Collections Care, Access and Preservation

The construction of a new Display Hangar (covered in our new Site Development Plan) will provide additional undercover display space for our most significant and vulnerable objects. At the same time it will enable us to re-interpret the collection to enhance the educational content for our visitors.

We have also received continued support from Museums Development Yorkshire (MDY) for 'Interpretation planning' which is to look into ways of better interpreting our collection for the benefit of visitors.

Education & Leisure

The Trustees will continue to review and develop plans to improve the visitor experience and widen our audience. A programme of events will be drawn up which will aim to continue to expand the family audience. This will be supported by a Marketing Plan to make more people aware of the museum and attract new visitors.

Effects of COVID-19 Pandemic

The Museum is in a strong enough financial position to see us through the problems caused by 'lockdown' for some considerable time. Our eligibility for the £25,000 Grant from HM Government via DMBC along with CJRS (Coronavirus Jobs Retention Scheme) wages furlough refund, has greatly increased the time that we can continue without difficulty. For obvious reasons, only essential spending will be allowed until we can see the way forward. The Museum has received donations and pledges for specific purposes, the new compressor and workshop modernisation and the Radar Room 2 project and these have gone ahead as planned. The most important thing is that we get our volunteers and staff back all safe and well.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES RESPONSIBILITIES

Charity law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which show a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and its financial activities for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:

Page 5

SOUTH YORKSHIRE AIRCRAFT MUSEUM

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021

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 1993. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence must take reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.

The charity's Constitution can be viewed on request.

Trustees

The Board of Trustees can have up to 9 members. None of our trustees receive any remuneration from the charity. A new trustee receives copies of the previous year's annual report and accounts, and a copy of the charity Commission's leaflet CC3 'The Essential Trustee: What you need to know'. The Chair of the trustees is responsible for the induction of new trustees and experienced trustees will support the ongoing development of any new trustee as required.

Procedures and Policy Making

The Trustees meet monthly to consider risks and other issues in the day to day running of the Museum. Representations can be made by members on any issue relevant to the Museum and its collection.

Risk management

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.

The major risks, to which the charity is exposed, as identified by the trustees, are under constant review as are the systems established to mitigate those risks.

The following controls are in place: Trustees Declaration Statement Formal agendas for meetings Terms of reference for committee roles Planning Emergency Plan Written Policies Accounting Systems Authorisation procedures Daily shop, till and banking records

It is recognised that systems can only provide reasonable but not absolute assurance that major risks have been adequately managed.

Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Tangible fixed assets

Improvements to property - 5% on reducing balance Fixtures and fittings - 15% on reducing balance

Taxation
