The British Pilgrimage Trust CIO

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 December 2021

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

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Objectives and aims

The British Pilgrimage Trust CIO (The BPT) aims to promote pilgrimage in Britain by helping to develop and publicise new and old paths as well as the practice of pilgrimage itself by making it open to all.

Significant activities

Summary of our 2021

2021 has been a significant growth year for the British Pilgrimage Trust as we have attempted to capitalise on the recent global trend towards domestic and meaningful travel. Two particularly strong growth areas were partnerships and volunteers. Our website received 150,000 visitors who visited it 540,000 times over the year.

Our mission is to help build routes, infrastructure and support for pilgrimage all around Britain; create a community to support the work of the BPT and other organisations across the country by supporting them in return; communicate to create understanding, awareness and involvement; and thereby make the practice of pilgrimage popular, with strong participation across Britain.

We continue to create new resources for pilgrims, some of which are free of charge to use, i.e. our routes directory, and some of which are available for purchase, i.e. Old Way Online Guide and our Britain’s Pilgrim Places book.

Publicity

2021 was another strong year for press coverage of the BPT. Pilgrimage seems to be a source of endless angles and stories for journalists, who find that there are as many reasons for making pilgrimage as there are pilgrims.

The press articles were:

Guardian (UK Overview, Ley Lines and Silent Pilgrimage articles), Telegraph, Independent, Catholic Herald (article 1/3), Money Week, Nat Geo Traveller, Simple Things magazine, Magnifissance, iNews (+ another), Religion News Service, Church Times, Idler magazine, Hijaz Shrine in Coventry Telegraph, South West Londoner, School House, Peter Stanford - Cathedral Cycle Routes Project - BBC Midlands TV on Ley line pilgrimage, 2chill, Old Way featured in top 15 list and Kent Life - Worcestershire News - BBC Songs of Praise - Sight Magazine - St Peter’s Way in Telegraph - BBC1 TV Sunday Morning Live - Sacred Steps Podcast Pilgrim Pioneers campaign launch - ArteTV- National Trust.

Old Way

This year has been remarkable; amongst all the challenges presented by Covid-19, and uncertainty around restrictions, we’ve found a real groundswell of support for pilgrimage on the Old Way.

Lockdown made everyone aware of the value of the various elements of pilgrimage, and it has opened the door to working with a number of organisations that share our goals, whether that is in conservation of churches, promoting being in nature, walking or improving social cohesion. Whilst we may have needed to adjust our ambitions for the year due to the unusual circumstances, we’ve achieved a lot.

This year, our Old Way Project Leader Dawn... Walked 254 miles Engaged 93 churches and pilgrim places Guided 10 Pilgrimages Updated 22 guide maps and 44 guide entries Raised £6.5k income Established relationships with 9 key stakeholders Established a new volunteering programme with 20 volunteers Supported 15 Sanctuary locations

The focus for the first part of the year was developing a fresh strategy for the Old Way, building on the expertise of the new Project Leader, Dawn Champion, and revising our approach against the dynamic circumstances of Covid-19.

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 December 2021

Community Engagement - Identified key locations for engagement, contacting stakeholders to identify how pilgrimage on the Old Way could support their community - Completed key pieces of research, including the benefits of pilgrimage for communities and the rural economy. - Put contact with local schools on hold, due to the capacity issues caused by the extraordinary circumstances schools found themselves in. - Established relationships with Canterbury Cathedral, Chichester Cathedral, Explore Kent, Great Sussex Way, English Heritage, Kent Downs AONB among others, and in addition to our Director leading on nationally important relationships with CPRE, LDWA, SDNPA, Woodland Trust, Ramblers, and NCT. - We also formed a partnership with Kent Downs AONB and Green Pilgrimage to deliver 10 half day AirBnB Experiences. Although the winter months have not yielded a great number of bookings, this has been a useful learning exercise in alternative platforms and helped to cement relationships with some important key stakeholders.

Waymarking

Sanctuary

Old Way Fundraising

We successfully closed off the funding from Salvia with a well-received report that has garnered their support for future applications, once we become eligible again.

- Offered an unrestricted £1k grant from the Arnold Clarke foundation
- Generated over £1k in donations from various online talks and lectures
- Earned £4.5k from the general guided pilgrimage programme.

We were successful in stage 1 of an application to the National Lottery Heritage Fund, and are yet to hear back on an Expression of Interest with the Arts Council.

Looking Forward on Old Way

In 2022 we will be relaunching an enhanced Online Guide, with a new layer of nature based content for every stage of the route. This will help pilgrims find inspiration and connection with the wildlife they find on the paths, hills, woods, rivers and churchyards. We will also launch Sanctuary, providing detailed information and linked access to various sanctuaries along the route. Plans involve getting more people making pilgrimage on the Old Way, building momentum and generating lots of media. We’ll aim to add more Sanctuaries, more stamps, and with project funding deliver a range of events.

Volunteering

Britain’s Pilgrim Places Book

We have now sold over 10,000 copies, and have printed a third print run. The book continues to inspire pilgrims all over Britain, who perhaps want to leave the weighty 608-page tome in their glovebox in order that they can find a pilgrim place wherever they go in Britain, or indeed plan a pilgrimage from their armchair.

Wexford-Pembrokeshire Pilgrim Way

Perhaps the most significant step for our charity was to be awarded a large €210,000 contract to deliver a new pilgrimage route between Ireland and Wales in a project ending July 2023. We have partnered with Pilgrim Paths Ireland and two Welsh organisations, Guided Pilgrimage and Journeying, to establish the Wexford-Pembrokeshire Pilgrim Way which will become one of Europe’s leading pilgrimage routes. From Nov 2021 we met the marketing and branding agency, all the key stakeholders, the team who will evaluate us, and put out a project launch press release, and hired two new employees.

Golden Valley Ley Lines, Herefordshire

Visit Herefordshire commissioned us to create a 4-day legacy route, and also a 2-day route for a guided event we organised to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Alfred Watkins ‘discovering’ ley lines in Blackwardine on 30 June 1921. Our Director Guy devised routes on the ground, took photos, drew a map of all the ley points and lines in Herefordshire mentioned in Alfred Watkins’ The Old Straight Track, wrote historical blurbs, and published a route map of the Twin Valley Pilgrim Trail. With the associated Golden Valley Pilgrim Trail he worked with local vicar Simon Lockett, who has taken the initiative of developing another 7-day route with Night Sanctuary options in churches administered by the local Deanery.

Way of Saints Cybi and Seiriol, Anglesey

The Llan Project commissioned Guy to create a route in Anglesey that joins Holyhead with Penmon. We designed a route with all of the key pilgrim places having been visited and photographed.

Guided Pilgrimages

We took 150 pilgrims on 14 guided pilgrimage fundraising events organised for the general public, led by BPT’s Guy, Dawn and trustee Abigail. These were: Old Way (x3): Nutbourne to Chichester, Lewes to Firle, Icklesham to Rye, Patrixbourne to Canterbury (x4) Glastonbury (x2), London, Herefordshire. The Guided Pilgrimages generated income of £8.6k.

Public benefit

The trustees have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the aims and objectives and in planning and undertaking activities.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Charitable activities

Website Improvements

We redesigned our new homepage map and routes directory page in February. There is now functionality for leaving comments on our pilgrim route pages, and a route feedback form is now in place on each route page. This will allow us to keep our route directory as up-to-date as possible.

School Pilgrimages

We continue to explore the potential for working with school children. To this end, Guy wrote a piece for School House magazine. One fruitful avenue would be to explore the creation of pilgrimage summer schools. Guy released a podcast with Fr Graeme Rowlands who takes children in different year groups to Walsingham, St Paul’s Cathedral, St Albans Cathedral and Westminster Abbey each year - Fr Graeme’s insights are illuminating.

Changes to Our Team

Merlin Sheldrake stood down as a Trustee in October 2021 owing to increasing external commitments. The operations team welcomed three new members in November 2021 to launch the Wexford-Pembrokeshire Pilgrim Way. John G O’Dwyer is providing expert advice on the Wexford end with Christine Smith and Iain Tweedale supporting in Pembrokeshire.

Partnerships

This year we have been exploring partnerships with various organisations and individuals. In terms of academic research, Eleanor O’Keeffe, used the BPT as a case study for a report on ritual innovation under Covid in Britain. We are also now working with Swansea University researcher, Jaeyeon Choe, to provide data on how pilgrimage tourism can help post COVID recovery in Wales. We provided photos of pilgrim places for the Cambridge University Divinity Faculty Shared Sacred Landscapes Photo exhibition. We will be working with Rurallure over the next year, a company working to improve the cultural and digital infrastructure for rural heritage on European pilgrimage routes. We worked to promote the ‘Listening to the Land’ pilgrimage to Glasgow - a group of 20 artists and performers walking nine weeks up the ‘Spine of Albion’ from Southampton to the Glasgow COP26 conference. They produced a theatrical performance of their journey that gets to the heart of what long-duration pilgrimages do.

Our work with English Heritage continues and they will be promoting pilgrim routes across England in their 2022-23 Annual Handbook.

Thanks to a supporter of BPT, William Cash, in September Guy met with senior government ministers, Culture Secretary Oliver Dowden and Conservative Party Chairman Ben Elliott (Levelling Up minister Michael Gove also saw the papers), to persuade them to focus more funding on improving walking infrastructure in Britain, most notably low-cost walkers’ accommodation. They recognise the importance of walking for the health of the nation in so many ways - physical, mental, economic - and understandably wanted to focus attention on Levelling Up areas, such as Preston, Bolton, Stoke and Bradford. We are yet to see what will come from this, and our ideas are now in the hands of the Tourism department.

Emma Bridgewater has joined our team as a Patron, planning to walk the Old Way in 2022.

FUTURE PLANS

We will continue to develop our partnerships with a view to connect with a more diverse range of sectors, such as nature conservation, heritage and mental health. Dawn will shift the Old Way project’s focus towards community engagement, both through the Sanctuary scheme and a broader spectrum of ways the community can engage with promoting and managing the route. We also aim to expand a National Sanctuary Network across Britain in addition to Old Way. With the uplift in interest in pilgrimage as a result of Covid it is also now time to expand our capacity. Therefore, we will be launching our volunteer scheme to widen our offerings of guided pilgrimages across Britain, and further develop and update our extensive routes directory with test walkers and admin supporters. We will also explore our long-term strategy for a Britain-wide school pilgrimage scheme.

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').

Independent examiner's statement

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.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2021

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The British Pilgrimage Trust is a charitable incorporated organisation (CIO) registered in England and Wales.

The address of the principal office is given in the charity information on page 5 of these financial statements. The nature of the charity's operations and principal activities are the to re-establish and refresh the practice of Britain's distinctive pilgrimage tradition.

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. 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) issued October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011, and UK Generally Accepted Practice.

The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair view'. This departure has involved following the 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) issued in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.

The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain items at fair value. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £.

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.

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.

For donations to be recognised the charity will have been notified of the amounts and the settlement date in writing. If there are conditions attached to the donation and this requires a level of performance before entitlement can be obtained then income is deferred until those conditions are fully met or the fulfilment of those conditions is within the control of the charity and it is probable that they will be fulfilled.

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.

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as an expense against the activity for which the expenditure arose.

Tangible fixed assets

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

Fixtures and fittings - 15% on straight line basis

Stocks

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items.

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.

Notes to the Financial Statements - continued for the Year Ended 31 December 2021

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Fund accounting

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.

Cash

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.

Debtors and creditors payable within one yea r

Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in expenditure.

Financial instruments

The charity only holds basic financial instruments as defined in FRS 102. Trade debtors, trade creditors and accruals are held at amortised cost as detailed in notes 10 and 11. Prepayments are not financial instruments. Cash is measured at face value.

Going Concern

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.
