Turn End Trust

Annual Report for the year ended 31 December 2020

The Turn End Trust is constituted by Deed of Trust and is a registered charity, No. 1162076. The address is 4 Long Wall, Haddenham, Buckinghamshire, HP17 8DL. The Charity Trustees at the end of the year to 31 December were:

Mrs Margaret Aldington Mr Peter Aldington Mr Gary Collins Chair Ms Karen Fitzsimon Mr Julian Gitsham Dr Kaye Lillycrop Ms Jane Lillystone Mr Mark Sharratt Mr Neil Warnock-Smith Secretary

In addition, Mr Philip Roberts acts as Treasurer in a non-Trustee capacity.

There were no changes to the Board of Trustees during the year.

The Trust was set up to (i) conserve and maintain the Turn End estate; (ii) help the advancement of education and scholarship in the art of building and garden design and seek to foster the integration of these two disciplines; and (iii) promote public knowledge and understanding of architecture, planning, landscape architecture and other creative arts. Until such time as the Turn End estate is gifted to the Trust, it is unable to fulfil the first of these requirements other than to fully understand the construction of the three listed buildings and the administration of the estate. The Trust has therefore concentrated its activities on the other two by each year holding a number of public events including house and garden open days, workshops and lectures. These events have until 2020 been well attended by the general public, and many student and professional architects and landscape architects from around the world have taken the opportunity to visit Turn End at Trust events to appreciate the architecture and garden, and to experience and understand how building and garden design can be integrated in practice.

Like so many other charities, the Trust found 2020 a very difficult year. All its ’ planned events – the Trust s major source of income – had to be cancelled because of Covid-19 restrictions. The Trust did however receive some welcome income from the sales of its book A Garden and Three Houses from its website and by its book distributor, sales of the Turn End DVD, two new Corporate Friends, and grants for specific reasons from funding bodies. No commercial fundraisers were used by the Trust.

The total income the Trust received in the 2020 year was approximately £3400. Unfortunately, despite its best efforts to reduce costs, expenses exceeded income by about £5400, so reducing its reserves. The Trust ’ s bank balance now stands at just under £14000.

If anything, the disappointing 2020 year has helped make the Trust realise that it needs to look further in to the future with its plans for the development of the Trust. To that end, it formed a Trust Strategy Group to look at, amongst other topics, audience development, sustainability, the future management of the Turn End Estate, and, more immediately, core funding for the Trust.

The Trust is more optimistic about 2021, with a number of events being planned for later in the year. With Covid restrictions still in place, it is looking at the possibility of delivering some of these as on-line events.
