Scropton Riding for the Disabled Centre Registered Charity 1170646
Chairman's Report for the year ended 31 December 2021
Scropton Riding for the Disabled Centre, also known as Scropton RDA, has been providing lifeenhancing riding and driving activities for disabled children and adults for over 55 years, and is one of the founding members of the Riding for the Disabled Association.
Located in South Derbyshire it is the only independent centre of its kind in the East Midlands, with around 350 riders using the Centre each year. Our Centre is much more than just a riding centre with many local groups and individuals involved, giving it a real sense of community.
People from 5 years of age upwards with a wide range of disabilities including physical, learning, sensory, profound and multiple disabilities use our specialist facilities. Our Centre is tailored to ensure that all our visitors have a safe and fun sporting experience whilst also receiving the physical and social therapeutic benefits that riding and working with horses is known to have.
All that being said, as we started the new year the Centre continued to remain closed as a direct result of the Covid-19 pandemic that was still widespread across the world. Like most of the United Kingdom, we shut our doors in March 2020 as the country went into a national lockdown, and due to ongoing Covid-19 restrictions we remained closed throughout the entire year and in to 2021.
Finally in August 2021 we opened our doors again and started to welcome back our clients, old and new. I think it’s fair to say that it took us the rest of the year to settle into something resembling normality, we were initially very cautious when we re-opened making sure that our Covid-19 protocols were up to standard and more importantly, being followed. But as we started to find our feet we grew in confidence, and by the end of the year we were fully operational 4.5 days a week. We still have some way to go to be back to pre-Covid levels but I am proud of what we have achieved so far.
Regrettably we have decided not to continue carriage driving for the foreseeable future, it has always been seasonal due to its’ outdoor nature and has had limited participation at times. Social distancing rules made it much more challenging with Covid. As an alternative we have put our time and efforts in to establishing other non- ridden activities, such as Horse Care and Horse Agility. We will be in a position to launch these activities in earnest early in 2022.
All of this has only been possible because of the support we had during our darkest days; the list is long but I would like to take this opportunity to thank some of those who have helped us along the way.
-
Our staff, who have dedicated themselves to the Centre, they have been hard working, flexible, generous and loyal.
-
Our volunteers, who helped us with the considerable preparations prior to re-opening and have since gone from strength to strength.
-
Horse and pony foster carers, these individuals took our horses and ponies into their homes (not literally) and cared for them whilst the Centre was closed, often at their own expense.
-
Grant makers and private donors, the generosity we have received has been truly heartwarming and because of their donations we have kept the Centre financially secure throughout this difficult time ensuring its survival for the future.
-
My fellow Trustees, who give their time freely, have helped me steer the Centre through another extraordinary year, there have been times when the future seemed so uncertain, but we have pulled together and made it through.

Report of the Trustees for the year ended 31 December 2021
The Trustees are pleased to present their annual report together with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2021, which are also prepared to meet the requirements for a Directors' Report and Accounts for Companies Act purposes.
The financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006, the Memorandum and Articles of Association, and 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 published in October 2019.
Our purposes and activities
The purposes of the charity are:
-
to further the objectives of the RDA (Riding for the Disabled Association Incorporating Carriage Driving) Charity Number 244108
-
to provide people with additional special needs or disabilities, the opportunity to ride and/or work with horses on the ground to benefit their health and well-being and achieve their goals
Facilities for riding and ground-based activities with horses are provided at the Centre. The assistance in the provision of such facilities is provided by our staff, coaches and volunteers, all of whom are fully qualified for their relevant tasks and attend training courses related to providing horse riding and ground-based activities for people with physical disability, learning difficulties or other special needs.
In shaping our objectives for the year and planning our activities, the Trustees have considered the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit.
Achievements and performance
Riding and Ground-based Activities
Horse riding commenced in August 2021 as the Centre re-opened following a period of closure due to the Covid-19 pandemic. We initially started with 2 people in each lesson as at the time there were Covid related industry limits to the number of people allowed in a lesson, which included riders, volunteers and coach.
Relatively quickly these limits were removed which allowed us to steadily increase our group sizes allowing more of our clients to return. Statistically it has shown that people with disabilities have been some of the hardest hit by the Covid restrictions and lockdowns, their vulnerability has in some cases left them feeling frightened to leave the house. Consequently, we had a reasonable amount of our clients not wanting to return to riding when we re-opened.
However, there was some positivity that came out of all the lockdowns, it made people think about taking up new activities. As a result, we had a large number of new clients contact us whilst we were closed, many of which are now riding with us.
During the year the Trustees took the decision to explore other ground-based activities, and both Horse Agility and Horse Care were identified as potential projects. Funding was sourced and by the end of the year the Horse Care was launched and the Horse Agility was making good progress. An unused barn was being converted to a Horse Agility arena which is expected to be finished in early 2022, at which point we will be able to launch this activity in earnest.

Horses
We started the year with 7 horses and ponies, most of which were with foster homes whilst the Centre was closed. By spring the horses and ponies began to return to the Centre to start their fitness work in preparation for re-opening.
By the end of the year we had 13 horses, but were in desperate need of some more. During the last 2 years the cost of horses, like many things during Covid, have increased significantly. A horse that would have cost around £4,000 is currently selling for nearer £8,000, the demand has outstripped the supply and driven up the prices. Loan horses are also in high demand for the same reason.
We have and still are looking for horses of all sizes, but particularly the larger 15’2+ weight carrying cob type. All the attributes and temperament that we are looking for also appeal to many of the people searching for horses, and although we have the funding we often cannot re-act quick enough. Horses are sold within hours and not days, and bidding wars can often start.
Finding more horses and ponies remains a priority for us.
As always, we have a team of dedicated grooms working under our Yard Supervisor who ensures the welfare of all our horses and ponies is second to none. We also have a network of support working with the Centre including vets, farriers, dentists, physios and saddle fitters.
Volunteers
The Centre has a large team of volunteers, without which the Centre would not be able to operate. These range from volunteer coaches and yard staff to maintenance and caterers in the coffee bar. We also have a few supported volunteers who gain a great deal of independence and personal responsibility from helping around the yard. All this help means the number of staff can be kept to a minimum.
The Centre has a part-time Volunteer Co-ordinator who provides a consistent and regular contact with all volunteers, engages in recruitment, undertakes statutory checks, arranges training and co-ordinates attendance times.
We have welcomed many new volunteers to the Centre since we re-opened but also seen many of our pre-Covid regulars return. Everyone is enjoying getting involved with all the different activities around the Centre, particularly assisting in the riding lessons. Many are looking forward to the launch of the Horse Agility in 2022 as it gives them an opportunity to learn something new.
The Trustees want to take this opportunity to thank each and every volunteer, old and new, who generously donates their time to ensure the Centre continues to stay open for our customers and, in addition, for providing the friendly and enriching environment within which our customers can flourish.
Funding
The Centre is entirely self-supporting, relying on self-generated funds, donations and grants to cover the general running costs and various improvement projects that become necessary during the year.
The majority of the Centre’s income comes from fees from riding activities, which are kept as low as possible to ensure they remain within the range of its customers. These fees alone do not generate enough to cover the operating costs and therefore the Centre remains heavily dependent on its charitable status and the generosity of those supporting the Centre through donations.

Scropton Riding for the Disabled Centre Registered Charity 1170646
We have relied heavily on grants and donations throughout the year as income from riding activities did not start to trickle in until August 2021. Some of the funding we had secured was to help support us once we re-opened, we anticipated that our costs would rise significantly as we brought our horses and ponies back to the Centre and started to take on more staff, but we also knew it would be a slow start and income would take time to build. This can be seen from our financial result.
The Trustees would like to thank all those supporters that gave generously during the year.
Projects
Projects were limited during the year as we concentrated our time and resources on re-opening.
Horse Agility was the main project that we’ve been working on, it wasn’t complete by the end of the year. But we secured grant funding to establish an Agility arena that was completed in early 2022, equipment was purchased and staff and some volunteers received trained. There is more to do in this area during 2022.
Activities of Scropton Equestrian Centre Ltd (SEC Ltd)
During the second half of the year all mainstream riding lessons were conducted by the trading subsidiary Scropton Equestrian Centre Ltd (Company Number 03861792). A total of £10,403 (2020: £20,091) has been received from that company in relation to charges for the use of the Centre's facilities and donations.
Financial review and reserves policy
The core income from riding lessons and ground-based activities, together with income from SEC Ltd, and regular fundraising activities is insufficient to cover the day-to-day costs of running the Centre. The nature of donations, gifts and grants is that they are irregular and cannot be relied upon to keep the accounts in surplus every year.
Accordingly, the Trustees try to maintain reserves sufficient to carry the charity through any lean years which may arise and, in addition, build up funds to finance development projects which enhance the available facilities. As the Covid-19 pandemic in March 2020 took hold and forced the temporary closure of the charity, the reserves held by the charity have proved to be sufficient. The level of free reserves held by the charity at the year-end is £45,581 (2020: £89,044).
The Trustees applied for a loan of £100,000 in 2019 to support the 3-year (2020 – 2022) business plan, the application was accepted and was received in May 2020. The business plan was created prior to the Covid-19 pandemic, which is now on hold until we can return to more normal and regular activities. The loan was still completed with the expectation it will support a new business plan from 2022 and onwards.
The Centre's total income for the year was £157,142 (2020: £284,962), costs were £189,450 (2020: £238,130), resulting in a deficit of £32,308 (2020: £46,832 surplus).
Future plans
The Centre has been running for over 50 years and the Trustees are committed to the Centre being around for another 50 years. The plan for 2021 was all about the road to re-opening which we successfully achieved.
2022 and beyond is about re-growth, versatility and supporting our community. We are under no doubt that Covid-19 will still play a part of the coming years but like the rest of the world we have got to learn
7
Scropton Riding for the Disabled Centre Registered Charity 1170646
to live and work with it. It is with this in mind that we are determined to offer a greater range of activities including Horse Care and Horse Agility which are activities that can be done safely but also allow those people that are unable to sit astride a horse to take part in horse activities from the ground.
One of the areas within the Centre that has remained closed since March 2020 is our Coffee Bar, as an indoor area we have been reluctant about re-opening it due to Covid safety concerns. However, that is something we want to put right in 2022. It has historically been a hub of the Centre for people to mix and interact over a coffee, but it’s also been a place for carers and parents to have a break whilst lessons are in progress. We hope to re-open the Coffee Bar during 2022.
Structure, Governance and Management
Governing Document
Scropton Riding for the Disabled Centre is a company limited by guarantee governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association dated 13 October 2016. It is registered as a charity with the Charity Commission. Anyone over the age of 18 can become a Member of the Company and there are currently 9 Members, each of whom agrees to contribute £1 in the event of the charity winding up.
Appointment of Trustees
When new or additional Trustees are required they are elected by the Members or co-opted by the Trustees. All Trustees are also Members and support the objects of the charity, as set out above.
The Trustees retire at each Annual General Meeting of the charity. Trustees may then stand again and may be reappointed by the Members. Co-opted Trustees hold office until the next AGM when they retire but may stand as Trustees and put themselves forward for election by the Members.
Risk management
The Trustees have a risk management strategy which comprises:
-
an annual review of the principal risks and uncertainties that the charity may face
-
the establishment of policies, systems and procedures to mitigate those risks identified in the annual review; and
-
the implementation of procedures designed to minimise or manage any potential impact on the charity should those risks materialise.
The Trustees continue to assess the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the charity which was forced to close between March 2020 and July 2021. Whilst most of the Government restrictions have been relaxed the Centre has continued to follow many of the guidelines due to the vulnerability of some of clients.

Statement of Trustee's responsibilities
The charity Trustees (who are also the Directors of Scropton Riding for the Disabled Centre for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing a Trustee's Annual Report and financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
Company law requires the charity Trustees to prepare financial statements for each year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period.

-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that 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 Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company’s website.

Notes to the Accounts
1 Accounting Policies
The principal accounting policies adopted, judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty in the preparation of the financial statements are as follows:
a) Basis of preparation
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 published in October 2019.
Scropton Riding for the Disabled Centre meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes.
b) Going Concern
At the time of signing these accounts, the Trustees have considered the effect of the Covid-19 pandemic on the reserves of the charity and hence the going concern position. The Trustees consider that this does not present a major risk and that the charity will continue in operation for a period of at least 12 months from the date of signing these accounts, due to the fast response by the Trustees to reduce costs and protect the reserves during the pandemic.
On that basis, the Trustees have prepared these financial statements on a going concern basis.
c) Income
Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Income from grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is 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.
d) Liabilities and Expenditure
A liability, and the related expenditure, is recognised when a legal or constructive obligation exists as a result of a past event, and when it is more likely than not that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and when the amount of the obligation can be measured or reliably estimated.
Liabilities arising from future funding commitments and constructive obligations, including performance related grants, where the timing or the amount of the future expenditure required to settle the obligation are uncertain, give rise to a provision in the accounts, which is renewed at the accounting year end. The provision is increased to reflect any increases in liabilities, and is decreased by the utilisation of any provision within the period, and reversed if any provision is no longer required. These movements are charged or credited to the respective funds and activities to which the provision relates incurred.
14
Scropton Riding for the Disabled Centre Registered Charity 1170646
e) Intangible fixed assets
Individual fixed assets costing £1,000 or more are capitalised at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful economic lives on a straight-line basis as follows:
Asset Category Annual rate Software 25% Straight-Line
- f) Tangible fixed assets
Individual fixed assets costing £1,000 or more are capitalised at cost and are depreciated over their estimated useful economic lives on a straight-line basis as follows:
| Asset Category | Annual rate |
|---|---|
| Freehold land & buildings | 0% |
| Plant & Equipment | 10% - 12.5% Straight-Line |
| Fixtures & Fittings | 10% Straight-Line |
No depreciation is provided in respect of land and buildings as the amount is negligible due to the high residual value of the buildings. Freehold land is not depreciated.
g) Stock
Stock is included at the lower of cost or net realisable value. Donated items of stock are recognised at fair value which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay for the items on the open market.
h) 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.
- i) Cash at bank
Bank balances, whether in credit or overdrawn, are shown at the amounts properly reconciled to the bank statements.
j) 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.
k) Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.
