THE JOHN BURNS FOUNDATION

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 July 2022. 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).

Burns Pet Nutrition Foundation (BPN Foundation) was fully incorporated as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) in February 2016, and changed its name to The John Burns Foundation in February 2020. To keep the charity activities distinctive from Burns Pet Nutrition Ltd the CIO is operated under the banner of Burns in the Community.

The John Burns Foundation exists as a CIO to make a difference to the lives of people and companion animals across the UK and delivers resources, skills and practical life improvement projects as well as financial donations, particularly where the countryside, horticulture, education and where positive animal assisted therapies are involved.

We are developing exciting innovative projects and meaningful partnerships with social change and welfare organisations to meet our charitable objects by offering practical, recreational and educational services to help people to gain confidence and learn life and work skills, whilst tackling social isolation.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Our charitable purposes and objects are to:

The Charitable Objects for The John Burns Foundation are:

Significant activities

The three main umbrella programmes that meet the objects of the BPN Foundation are:

Additional services and events been have developed outside of the main three programmes. During the financial year the Foundation worked with 38 different organisations to deliver services and interventions to further the objectives of the charity. Amongst these were:

Public benefit

Trustees have regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit.

People

The team is managed by our Chief Executive Officer Melanie Jones, who joined the organisation in October 2019. She is supported by Project Managers, Chris Cray for The Better Tomorrow Programme and Abigail Steanson for the Burns by Your Side programme.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Achievements and Performance

Burns By Your Side Scheme

Our flagship outreach project has grown from strength to strength with our volunteer base expanding in numbers from 15 in 2017 to 56 active volunteer/canine teams working in schools and education settings across five counties. In the last 12 months over 12,000 reading sessions were delivered.

We have participated in a consortium of service providers across the UK to develop robust training and minimum standards which were loosely based around our practices. This now means we are leading the way in terms of training which meets the new standardised guidelines. We hold accreditation by Animal Assisted Interventions International to provide training equivalent to the Kennel Club Good Citizen. We have established a training centre and are offering a range of dog training courses for our BBYS volunteer teams in four locations, which generates income for the John Burns Foundation.

We continue to engage in academic studies with Swansea University into the effectiveness of BBYS for its beneficiaries, this has been published and distributed via educational networks across the UK. The academics involved further published a book called 'Tails from the Classroom'.

Burns Better Tomorrow Programme

Our Better Tomorrow programme is thriving with additional group activity being undertaken in our gardens as well as at our Flagship Canolfan John Burns Centre building. Particular achievements have been the engagement with the occupational therapy teams for the NHS, a project with Mencap to encourage volunteering amongst their service users, and our new programme 'Food For Thought'. We were successful in securing funding from The National Lottery People & Place Fund to install a fully accessible Food Education Classroom. We also secured funding to run the 'Food for Thought' project to teach people how to prepare healthy meals for themselves and their families and learn about why cooking from scratch using healthy seasonal produce provides huge health and financial advantages. This project will continue until March 2024.

We commenced a project called Woodland Heroes in 2021, which ran throughout this financial year. The project was funded through the Rural Development Plan for Wales. In Carmarthenshire this programme called Leader was managed by the Cefn Gwlad Local Action Group (LAG). The Woodland Heroes project teaches school children and adults with learning disabilities about the many benefits of planting trees. Pupils and adults plant their own patch of native trees on agricultural land at Canolfan John Burns Centre, with the goal of offsetting carbon emissions in the local community, and at their school or residential setting. The beneficiaries learn about carbon dioxide and sustainability and acquire the skills to plant and care for trees. They become ambassadors for change and take the lead on reducing the carbon footprint of their schools and communities. The aim is that young people understand and tackle the consequences of global warming, we want to encourage them to change their behaviour to respond to what is already a global emergency. This programme is not only about planting trees, but also to plant seeds in the children's mind about being responsible for our planet.

Burns in the Community

Burns in the Community is our way of enriching the lives of people who live in our community. The project provides support for individuals who have the potential to become socially excluded. We work with local community groups and a whole host of social organisations. Our fantastic new headquarters set in 20 acres of land has been designed specifically to give us the space to develop and expand our charitable objectives, thereby maximising our work within our community.

We continue to deliver and work with partner organisations to bring services into the community such as parent and baby groups, socialisation groups for the elderly and prevention sessions run by the emergency services.

Community Bus and Electric Car Service

To meet our charitable objects around social isolation and tackle this challenge head on we provide a local community transport service to enable individuals to attend the regular programme of activities provided for targeted groups in the area. We can provide transport to these activities by utilising our fully adapted minibus. We have a 18 seater fully adapted bus with tail lift as well as an electric MPV in association with Dolen Teifi.

Burns in the Community - Ireland

Since inception in May 2018, the Ireland charity has grown significantly. The BBYS volunteer programme is active with 24 volunteers attending schools, and training for further volunteers underway. Reading sessions have also commenced in libraries.

The Charity of the Year award supported West Cork Animal Welfare during the period and we have agreed an ongoing partnership with previous award recipients Galway SPCA.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Reserves policy

In the longer term, the trustees will aim to maintain free reserves at a level which equates to approximately twelve months of charitable expenditure. It is considered that this level will provide sufficient funds to respond to the commitments made to our beneficiary groups and ensure that support and governance costs are covered.

Free reserves as at the balance sheet date amounted to £ 648,814 which comprise the charitable assets that may freely and quickly converted into cash. This does not include the woodland which is viewed by the trustees as a long-term investment for the future development of charitable activities.

The trustees acknowledge that the current reserves far exceed the policy requirement. This situation arose as a result of the substantial initial donation made to the charity by Burns Pet Nutrition Limited being its main benefactor. This source of charitable funding cannot be relied upon as a continuing source of funding for the future. The trustees are therefore mindful of the need to diversify its sources of funding through alternative grant funding, donations and trading activity and therefore feel that the current level of free reserves is appropriate, at present, to enable its activities to continue until alternative funding is secured.

This policy will be regularly reviewed.

FUTURE PLANS

Key Aims of our work in 2022/2023:

  1. To grow our commercial activity by renting out space in our building on a sessional basis and to open a Glamping site.

  2. To grow our volunteer base to increase our capacity (numbers of people and the wealth of expertise). 3. To grow our Burns in the community projects in Ireland.

  3. To further develop fundraising channels including grant funding applications and commercial activity.

  4. To develop further the range of dog training & welfare courses in readiness for public delivery.

  5. To identify collaborations with other organisations to help deliver assistance dog services presently unavailable in south west Wales.

  6. To maximise the potential for PR and marketing in conjunction with BPN marketing team.

  7. To evaluate and illustrate how our work is impacting on the communities we are working with.

  8. Smarter working, communications, operational models and governance.

  9. Proposed capital project - the John Burns Legacy.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing document

The charity is controlled by its governing document and a deed of trust. The Foundation was registered in February 2016 and was amended as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation in February 2020.

Recruitment and appointment of new trustees

In line with best practice and the Charity Governance Code, the board continuously seeks to enhance the diversity of its skillset. Trustees are subject to a rigorous interview, probationary period, checks and induction to support them in becoming effective members of the board, working in the best interests of the Charity. Trustees play an engaged role, volunteering their time and support freely, contributing the benefit of their professional expertise and experience and collaborating to protect and develop the Charity in a heavily regulated environment. Trustees are eligible for election to a maximum of six years tenure.

Risk management

A risk register has been developed to ensure that risk management is a core part of our operating procedures. It is regularly reviewed by the management of the foundation. Risk management is inherent in all the Charity's activities and key risks broadly cover volunteer management, safeguarding of vulnerable groups, data protection, finance governance and compliance, health and safety and information technology.

One of the key risks identified in the period was the protection of personally identifiable data, recognising the risk of non-compliance with GDPR. This was managed by implementing targeted policies and procedures and staff training. Trustees are satisfied that risks identified are rigorously controlled and regularly monitored through internal and external sources and that they are properly mitigated and managed to ensure the Charity remains compliant and meets the highest standards of care for client groups and the general public.

The trustees will review this document regularly.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE JOHN BURNS FOUNDATION

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The John Burns Foundation

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of The John Burns Foundation (the Trust) for the year ended 31 July 2022.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent examiner's statement

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants, which is one of the listed bodies.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by Section 130 of the Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  2. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. 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.

Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.

Tangible fixed assets

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.

Plant and machinery 3 years straight line Computer equipment 3 years straight line Fixtures and fittings 10 years straight line

Assets in progress will start depreciating when complete.

Investment property

Investment property includes the woodland previously donated by Burns Pet Nutrition Ltd. It is included in investment property as the land will be used to harvest wood which will later be sold. It is shown at its most recent trustee valuation.

Taxation

The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits

The charity operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charity's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.

Legal Status of the charity

The Charity is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation.

Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

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.

The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Donated services

Donated services from other entities are recognised within the financial statements as income with the corresponding expenditure being put against the expense to which is relates.

Grant income

Income from government and other grants, whether 'capital' grants or 'revenue' grants, are recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred.

17. MOVEMENT IN FUNDS - continued

This funding came from the Rural Development Plan for Wales for the facilitation of the Woodland Heroes project. Children and young people learnt about the effects of carbon on our environment and how planting trees reduces our carbon footprint. The pupils became ambassadors for change who took the message back to their schools, presenting what they had learnt to other pupils. They also planted trees both at CJBC and in their school.

18. RELATED PARTY DISCLOSURES

During the period services were donated from Burns Pet Nutrition Limited to The John Burns Foundation. These have been accounted for as income within the financial statements by way of a donation, with the corresponding expenditure being put against the expense to which the donated service relates. The total of these donated services in the year were £55,889 (2021: £193,432). In addition to this, Burns Pet Nutrition Limited donated monies to the sum of £138,307 (2021: £NIL) to The John Burns Foundation.

There is a balance owed to The John Burns Foundation from Burns Pet Nutrition Limited as at the year end of £22,899 (2021: £102,744) which is included within other debtors.
