## **WARWICKSHIRE FEDERATION OF WOMEN’S INSTITUTES C.I.O. Trustees Report** 

The Trustees present their report and accounts for the year ended 31 March 2025. 

## **Structure, Government and Management** 

The Federation is constituted and governed under the Constitution and Rules for County Federations as laid down by the National Federation. The  principal  activity  of  the  Charity  is  to  further  the  purpose  of  the Women’s Institute movement in Warwickshire and elsewhere. 

The Warwickshire Federation of Women’s Institutes exists for the benefit of 83 WIs within Warwickshire and is a member of the National Federation of Women’s Institutes.  It offers to these WIs a mixture of events fulfilling the Values and Objects within the Constitution to educate women. 

## **Method of Recruiting and Appointing Trustees** 

The  management  of  the  charity  is  the  responsibility  of  the  Board  of Trustees who are elected biennially and co-opted under the terms of the Trust Deed.  Any member of a WI belonging to the Federation is eligible to stand for election to the Board. 

## **Public Benefit** 

The  trustees  are  satisfied  that  the  charity’s  objects  meet  the  public benefit purposes for the advancement of community development.  The trustees  confirm  that  they  have  taken  into  account  the  guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity’s aims and objectives and in planning future activities. 

## **Risk Management** 

The  Board  of  Trustees  recognise  their  responsibility  to  address  the potential risks which Warwickshire Federation may encounter.  An annual review and Risk Assessment is carried out by the Federation Officers and agreed by the Board of Trustees.  The major risks, in particular those relating to the operations and finances of the Trust, have been identified and  the  Trustees  are  satisfied  with  the  overall  level  of  risk  and  that systems are in place to manage or pre-empt those risks. The Federation also ensures that a Risk Assessment is undertaken for individual events and regularly reviews possible risks.

What a good year we have had! 

Our membership stands at over 2900 and we opened two new WIs: Hanslei Harriots  in  Ansley,  and  Styvechale  in  Coventry.  We  went  into  a  working relationship with the Relate shop in Warwick, started our own WI Lottery, and built on our connections with rugby clubs across the county. In the office, Katie and Kath have done a sterling job supporting members, streamlining processes, and working with trustees in both running the organization and in fundraising. 

Fundraising this year came in many guises, from providing teas at Wren Hall and at the Adventure Biker Event at Ragley Hall, through Gift Aid to the amazing efforts of many of you in the Chair’s Challenge. This challenge to use ten pounds from Federation to kick start fundraising in your local communities led to some very innovative ideas – including a fashion show at Wishaw and a wine walk held by the Blue Belles. In the end, Harbury won the challenge by holding several events to build the funds. Well done to you all and thank you – Federation’s share of your fundraising was a whopping £5000! 

Our trustees included a talk on Coventry’s True Crime to the by now standard agenda of the Grand Day Out, the quiz and of course, talks from the fabulous Lesley Smith. 

Our  Public  Affairs  team  added  trips  to  the  cutting  edge  recycling  centre  at Sherbourne in Coventry and to a state of the art dairy farm at Shilton to our popular Serious Science talks. On the campaigning side, members were joined by Chair Sue Postlethwaite and National Chair Jeryl Stone in a demonstration for clean water at Coventry Rail Station. 

As well as sell out workshops on making the most of your sewing machine and needle-felting, the Creative Affairs team held an extremely successful “Dabble Day” where members could learn to make up to six Christmassy items in one day. This went down a storm and is likely to become an annual event! 

In addition to the treasure hunt, darts tournament (won by Stockton) and the annual  Christmas  shopping  trip,  the  Leisure  Affairs  team,  ran  a  preserves competition and a crystallization demonstration.  Their trip to Bridgnorth and David Austin Roses saw some lovely blooms being loaded on to the coach for the return journey (and some rose plants!). 

Aside from  opening two new WIs, our Membership and Promotion  team  ran training  courses  for  new  and  existing  treasurers,  and  also  on  the  Member Communication System (MCS). 

Our Warwickshire WI magazine goes from strength to strength with 8 copies a year, 4 hard copy and 4 digital with new features and regular columns. Thank you to those WIs who continue to share news of their meetings and events – they make very interesting reading! 



Lastly but not least, our Annual Federation Meeting saw us meet in Stratford-onAvon. We welcomed Annabel Croft as our principal guest speaker and also had a surprising and informative presentation (with wetsuit-donning demonstration!) from  the  Lowland  Search  and  Rescue  team.  Our  Public  Affairs  team  also presented on the work they have done – and continue to do – on our campaign No More Violence Against Women. The Lane Cup was awarded to Harbury for the best flower arrangement in a tea cup. 

Well done to all of you for the part you play in making this the successful organization it is. Thank you – and here’s to next year.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025 

I  report  to  the  trustees  on  my  examination  of  the  financial  statements  of Warwickshire Federation of Women’s Institutes (the charity) for the year ended 31 March 2025. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the trustees of the charity, you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act). 

I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s financial statements carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act.  In carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Christy Commission under section 145(b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner’s statement** 

Your  attention  is  drawn  to  the  fact  that  the  charity  has  prepared  financial statements in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the  UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has now been withdrawn. 

I understand that this has been done in order for financial statements to provide a true and fair view in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015. 

I have completed my examination.  I confirm that no 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 charity as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or 

2. The financial statements do not accord with those records; or 

3. The financial statements 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 to proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025 

## **1. Accounting policies** 

## **Charity information** 

Warwickshire  Federation  of  Women’s  Institutes  is  a  charitable incorporated organisation (CIO) registered in England and Wales. The registered office is Federation House, 1 Corunna Court, Corunna Road, Warwick, CV34 5HQ. 

The charity was registered with the Charity Commission on the 19 September 1993 and converted to CIO in September 2019 when the assets and  liabilities of  Warwickshire Federation of Women’s Institute were transferred to the CIO. 

## **1.1 Accounting convention** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with  the  charity’s  (governing  document),  the  Charities  Act 2011 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 (FRS 102)  (effective  1  January  2019)”.   The  charity  is  a  Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102. 

The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows. 

The  financial  statements  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 the following Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying FRS 102 rather than the version of the Statement of Recommended Practice which is referred to in the Regulations but which has since been withdrawn. 

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity.  Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £. 



The  financial  statements  have  been  prepared  under  the historical cost convention, modified to include certain financial instruments at fair value.  The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below. 

## Page 10 **WARWICKSHIRE FEDERATION OF WOMEN’S INSTITUTES C.I.O.** 

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025 

## **1.2 Going concern** 

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.  Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. 

## **1.3 Charitable funds** 

- Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives 

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used.  The purposes and uses of the restricted  funds  are  set  out  in  the  notes  to  the  financial statements. 

## **1.4** 

## **Income** 

Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received. 

Cash donations are recognised on receipt.  Other donations are  recognised  once  the  charity  has  been  notified  of  the donation,  unless performance  conditions  require  deferral of the amount.  Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised when received. 

## **1.5 Expenditure** 

Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been  classified  under  headings  that  aggregate  all  costs related  to  the  category.   Expenditure  is  recognised  where there is a legal or constructive obligation to make payments to  third  parties,  it  is  probably  that  the  settlement  will  be 



required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. 

## **1.6 Tangible fixed assets** 

Tangible  fixed  assets  are  initially  measured  at  cost  and subsequently measured at cost of valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses. Any minor purchases  of  furniture  or  equipment are  written  off  to the Statement of Financial Activities and no further depreciation will be provided. 

Page 11 

## **WARWICKSHIRE FEDERATION OF WOMEN’S INSTITUTES C.I.O.** 

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025 

Depreciation  is  recognised  so  as  to  write  off  the  cost  or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases: 

Freehold land and buildings Over 50 years Office Equipment Over 4 years 

## **1.7 Fixed asset investments** 

Fixed asset investments are initially measured at transaction price excluding transaction costs,  and  are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date.  Charges in fair value are recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred. 

A subsidiary is an entity controlled by the charity.  Control is the power to govern the financial and operating policies of the entity so as to obtain benefits from its activities. 

## **1.8 Impairment of fixed assets** 

At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of it tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss.  If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any). 

## **1.9 Cash and cash equivalents** 

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, depots held at  call  with  baks,  other  short-term  liquid  investments  with original maturities of three months or less, and bank 



overdrafts.  Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities. 

## **1.10 Financial instruments** 

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. 

Financial instruments are recognised in the charity’s balance sheet  when  the  charity  becomes  party  to  the  contractual provisions of the instrument. 

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to se off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on the net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
