CHAIRMAN’S REPORT

Osprey Quay Management Services Limited is a charity that is committed to managing the green space at Osprey Quay for the benefit of communities.

Investments

Over the period 1st April 2023 to 31st March 2024 the value of the investments held by the company increased by 9.05% (2022/23: increase of 5.97%) to £2.15m (2022/23: £1.97m).

A favourable income yield on our investments of 2.7% (2022/22: 2.8%) enables us to manage our sites sustainably to achieve our charitable outcomes and to fund future improvements.

Benefits

Osprey Quay is a picturesque nine-hectare open space located in Portland, Dorset, nestled between the historic Portland Castle and the marina. This vibrant area, which played a key role during the 2012 Summer Olympics as a sailing venue, combines natural beauty with practical amenities, including flood defences, a business park, and a promenade leading to the renowned Chesil Beach. It serves as a cherished green space for the local community, offering a serene environment by the waterfront.

Our maintenance efforts continued to focus on preserving the site's beauty and functionality throughout the year. This included regular grass cutting, verge trimming, and the upkeep of raised beds and amenity trees to ensure the landscape remained vibrant and welcoming. We also carried regular site cleansing which included litter collection, bin emptying, and the prompt removal of any flytipped waste to maintain cleanliness.

The ongoing maintenance, repair, and replacement of infrastructure continued, ensuring that Osprey Quay continues to be a wellmaintained and enjoyable space for all visitors. This year included the replacement of the electricity box at Liberty Square and the replacement of the western end bin on the promenade.

The Board

The Board usually meets four times a year, additional ad hoc meetings of the Board or trustees take place during the year.

Key Personnel

The charity has no directly employed staff. The trustees act as key management personnel and are not remunerated, any additional services provided are the parent charity and so all employee policies are set at Group level.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES

Health and Safety

The Board considers the health, safety and well-being of volunteers, suppliers and visitors to our sites as a governance priority. The Board is ultimately responsible for compliance with Health and Safety legislation. The day-to-day responsibility is delegated to the Chief Executive and the Chief Financial Officer of The Land Trust, who are together responsible for compliance, relevant policy development and performance. During the course of the year there were no significant accidents or incidents involving volunteers, contractors, or visitors to the site. All staff have completed training sessions outlining health and safety responsibilities of the organisation and the individual employees as expressed in the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974. The charity has the systems in place to ensure these responsibilities are met. We continue to work closely with our managing agent to develop robust and complementary best practice.

Financial Reporting

The trustees (who are also Directors of Osprey Quay Management Services Company Limited for the purposes of Company Law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report, including the Strategic Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

Company law 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 charitable company and the group and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company and group for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:

The trustees are responsible for ensuring proper accounting records are kept that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and the group and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006.

| They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and the group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities,

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

The Charity's objects ("the Objects”) are specifically restricted to the following:

PUBLIC BENEFIT

A charity is required to meet one or more of the prescribed charitable purposes as set out in the Charities Act 2011. In planning the charity's activities, the trustees have had regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance (RR2 - Promotion of Urban and Rural Regeneration) on public benefit.

The public benefit lies in the provision of land for a charitable purpose either as a public amenity or in its preservation or conservation.

STRATEGIC REPORT

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

A summary of the activities undertaken by the charity during the year and its achievements and performance are set out in the Chairman's Report. FINANCIAL REVIEW Overview and Income The principal source of income for the charity in 2023/24 was investment income. Capital receipts are invested to generate investment income which is used to cover the cost of managing Osprey Quay for public benefit. The charity received £nil of site funding in year ended 31 March 2024 (2022/23: fnil). The charity's investment Income provides the ongoing revenue to fund the charitable activities. During the year investment income was £0.058m (2022/23: £0.055m). The market conditions have continued to improve resulting in unrealised gains at the end of the 2023/24 Financial Year of £0.179m (2022/23: loss of £0.067m). Modelling of the investment income indicates that the charity should not have a going concern issue and further steps have been taken to ensure this is the case. Other trading activities income for the year ending 31st March 2024 is £300 (2022/23: Enil). Expenditure Total expenditure in 2023/24 was £0.023m (2022/23: £0.021m). This represents the expenditure in relation to the flood barrier at Osprey Quay and the operation of the charity. The expenditure in relation to the flood barrier is periodic, in some years the maintenance and repair costs are higher than others due to the nature of the works required on the barrier, The charity generated a net incoming resource surplus (before Gains & Losses on Investments) of £0.035m (2022/23: £0.034m). The surplus is taken to the Trust’s reserves and those funds with restrictions are held to be applied in accordance with the restrictions. Financial Investment Policy and Performance The charity's Investment Policy is in line with the Investment Policy of its member (the Land Trust), this is reviewed by The Land Trust's Investment Committee which sets out the long-term investment objectives. These are essentially to generate a level of income to meet its related site expenditure whilst maintaining the long term purchasing power of capital and income against inflation. The value of the portfolio was £2.2m as at 31 March 2024 (31 March 2023: £2.0m). Financial Reserves The trustees ensure that an adequate level of reserves is maintained to enable the charity to manage financial risk and ensure there is sufficient funding for the long term financing of site maintenance. When the charity took on Osprey Quay, it committed to keeping the site open to the public in perpetuity and it must therefore plan over the long term. However, as incoming resources are mainly generated from investment retums, the charity is subject to the effects of short term volatility in these returns. The charity ensures that, in the face of potentially volatile investment returns, adequate liquid resources are held to meet short term maintenance cost commitments. Expenditure on Osprey Quay is funded through a combination of service charges and investment income generated from the investment of site funding received on acquisition. Expenditure is carefully planned not to exceed available funds; for example, if investment income were to decrease, the level of expenditure to which the charity commits would also decrease. The charity monitors its reserves, enabling it to maintain an adequate level of reserves to cover any short term short fall in investment income. The charity also reviews its central overhead commitments both to ensure they are commensurate with the needs of the organisation and the level of free reserves held is adequate to meet these obligations. Following on from the designation of the Osprey Quay site General Funds, at the beginning of the 2018/19 Financial Year, the charity no longer has free reserves. The trustees consider that these designated funds are similar to free reserves as they have been designated for the sole purpose of the management of the Osprey Quay site.

OSPREY QUAY MANAGEMENT SERVICES COMPANY LIMITED (A company limited by guarantee) YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024 The charity is building up its designated funds in case of a catastrophic event at Osprey Quay, such as the destruction of the flood barrier following a storm. As at 31st March 2024 the level of Designated Reserves is £0.30m (2022/23: £0.25m). The charity has clear policies on reserves and its designation of funds, having reviewed these policies in light of the effect of Covid-19. The charity considers that these policies remain appropriate and proportionate. Should the charity take on further sites in the United Kingdom, the trustees would review this designation of funds. Currently there are no plans for the Charity to take on any further sites.

The charity holds reserves to be applied to future activities in a number of categories;

General Funds — these funds can be used for any of the charity’s charitable purposes Designated Funds — these funds, which are otherwise unrestricted, are earmarked by the Trustees for the management of Osprey Quay. Restricted Funds ~ these funds are applied to the various specific purposes intended by the donors

Unrestricted Funds

These comprise the General Funds and Designated Funds.

The General Funds at 31 March 2024 amounted to £nil (2022/23: Enil).

siteThe Designatedmaintenance.Funds at 31 March 2024 amounted to £0.30m (2022/23: £0.25m). This represents funding designated for

Restricted Funds

At 31 March 2024 the Restricted Funds amounted to £1.95m (2022/23: £1.78m). These funds are invested in the charity’s long term discretionary investment portfolio.

Related Parties

These are the trustees and member organisations and details of these transactions are set out in Note 17 under Related Party transactions.

PLANS FOR FUTURE PERIODS

The charity's plans for future periods are set out in the Chairman's Report.

PRINCIPAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The charity’s risk mariagement processes are designed to enable the Board, on the advice of the Finance & Audit Committee which considers reports from the Land Trust's Chief Financial Officer, to conclude whether the major risks to which the charity is exposed have been identified and reviewed, and systems and procedures have been established to mitigate these risks.

The charity has currently identified the main risks as ‘Compromise in Cyber Security, internal and external fraud and failure to adhere to GDPR Regulations and failure to implement technological advances’ and ‘Unable to acquire mix and scale of land and income required in accordance with the Business Plan framework in the medium and long term’. Major risks are those which have a combined high impact and probability of occurring and would, if they occurred, have a severe impact on either operational performance or achievement of purpose and objectives, or could damage the charity's reputation. The trustees concentrate their efforts on ensuring that the most serious risks are being managed effectively. These are reported regularly to the Board and are also considered in detail periodically by the Finance & Audit Committee. The charity's approach addresses risk in a wide context, with emphasis on strategic, environmental and operational risks in addition to the more familiar areas of financial risks, compliance with statutory requirements and internal control procedures. The charity assesses risk in terms of its financial and reputational impact and its impact on the delivery of its key objectives. We are confident that our methodology enables us to identify and manage the major risks facing the charity.

STATEMENT AS TO DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION TO AUDITORS The trustees have confirmed that, as far as they are aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the auditors are unaware. Each of the trustees has confirmed that they have taken all the steps that they ought to have taken as trustees, in order to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that it has been communicated to the auditors.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES AND MEMBERS OF OSPREY QUAY MANAGEMENT SERVICES LIMITED

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Osprey Quay Management Services Company Limited for the year ended 31 March 2024 which comprise the statement of financial activities, balance sheet, statement of cash flows and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

i)

OSPREY QUAY MANAGEMENT SERVICES COMPANY LIMITED (A company limited by guarantee) YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees’ Annual Report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the Trustees’ Responsibilities Statement set out on page 5, the trustees (who are also directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed as auditors under the Companies Act 2006 and report in accordance with regulations made under that Act. misstatement,Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whetherthe financial statements as a whole are free from material is whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance a a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The specific procedures for this engagement and the extent to which these are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud are detailed below.

Identifying and assessing risks related to irregularities: We assessed the susceptibility of the charitable company's financial statements to material misstatement and how fraud might occur, including through discussions with the trustees and management, discussions within our audit team planning meeting, updating our record of internal controls and ensuring these controls operated as intended, We evaluated possible incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements. We identified laws and regulations that are of significance in the context of the charitable company by discussions with trustees and management and updating our understanding of the sector in which the charitable company operates.

Laws and regulations of direct significance in the context of the charitable company include The Companies Act 2006, and guidance issued by the Charity Commission for England and Wales.

Audit response to risks identified: We considered the extent of compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our audit procedures on the related financial statement items including a review of financial statement disclosures. We reviewed the charitable company’s records of breaches of laws and regulations, minutes of meetings and correspondence with relevant authorities to identify potential material misstatements arising. We discussed the charitable company's policies and procedures for compliance with laws and regulations with members of management responsible for compliance.

During the planning meeting with the audit team, the engagement partner drew attention to the key areas which might involve non-compliance with laws and regulations or fraud. We enquired of management whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations or knowledge of any actual, suspected or alleged fraud. We addressed the risk of fraud through management override of controls by testing the appropriateness of journal entries and identifying any significant transactions that were unusual or outside the normal course of business. We assessed whether judgements made

10

OSPREY QUAY MANAGEMENT SERVICES COMPANY LIMITED (A company limited by guarantee) YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

in making accounting estimates gave rise to a possible indication of management bias. At the completion stage of the audit, the engagement partner's review included ensuring that the team had approached their work with appropriate professional scepticism and thus the capacity to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations and fraud.

There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it. Also, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion.

A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.fre.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.

NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES: Osprey Quay Management Services Company Limited is a charity registered with the Charity Commission in England and Wales No. 1166655, it’s registered address is 7 Birchwood One, Dewhurst Road, Birchwood, Warrington, WA3 7GB The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:

BASIS OF PREPARATION AND ASSESSMENT OF GOING CONCERN

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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) (second edition) — (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.

The financial statements are presented in sterling, round to the nearest pound.

The charity has a clear focus on managing its costs and, working within its appetite for risk, seeks to generate maximum income from its investment portfolio. | We continue to review and prepare long term forecasts and projections to show that: - The projected income from the endowment and site fund is sufficient to meet its expected operating costs and - The contribution margin earned from the management ofthese sites, is sufficient to meet central costs such that the charity will generate working capital to remain financially sustainable in the lang term.

The trustees have therefore continued to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the annual Financial Statements.

INCOME

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

Interest on funds held on deposit is accrued and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest payable by the bank. Dividends are recognised once the dividend has been declared and notification has been received of the dividend due. This is normally upon notification by our investment advisor of the dividend yield of the investment portfolio.

DONATED SERVICES AND FACILITIES

Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), the general volunteer time is not recognised and refer to the trustees’ annual report for more information about their contribution. On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt.

INVESTMENT INCOME

Investment income is recognised on a receivable basis.

EXPENDITURE

Liabilities are recognised as resources expended as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure. Expenditure is recognised when, and to the extent that, a liability is incurred or increases without a commensurate increase in recognised assets or decrease in liabilities. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and is classified under appropriate headings that aggregate all costs relating to the category. Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the category of resources expended for which it was incurred.

CHARITABLE EXPENDITURE

Charitable expenditure includes all expenditure associated with the charity's charitable activities, including support costs. Support costs include central office functions such as general management, finance and accounting, IT and human resources.
