Boat Building Academy Limited
Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 August 2020
The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 August 2020. 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
To teach men and women to build boats and design and make furniture of the highest quality to accepted industry standards using traditional and modern methods and materials, thus enabling our students to fully realise their potential
The charity's objects ('Objects') are specifically restricted to the following, for the public benefit:
a. to advance the education of the public in the art, craft and science of boat building, fine woodworking and related skills; and
b. to educate people through the provision of sailing or sailing related activities and other training to develop their physical, mental and social capabilities.
Significant activities
The principal activity of the Boat Building Academy (BBA) is to train students on an intensive, practical course over both a 40-week ('the long course') or a 12-week course to a level where they have the potential to gain immediate employment in the marine or furniture making industries.
The majority of the younger graduates (those seeking to enter the industry rather than those in retirement) are successful in finding work, and employers approach the BBA directly to seek skilled workers. A number of the former students have returned after working in the industry and now teach at the Academy, including the Principal.
2 - 5 day short courses complement these longer courses, providing training in boat building, woodworking skills and related subjects. In the last ten years the business has doubled its turnover and achieved international pre-eminence as a training establishment.
As a fee-paying college, the BBA offers bursaries to support impoverished men and women who would benefit from the training.
The second object 'to educate people through the provision of sailing or sailing related activities and other training to develop their physical, mental and social capabilities' is in its infancy. The BBA does not currently undertake sail training activities, but has been developing relationships with several sail training organisations and charities including Adventure Under Sail (AUS) and the Tectona Trust.
The relationship with AUS has started with staff staying aboard and sailing on Training Ship Pelican of London. Staff/student exchange visits are planned, and BBA tutors will attend shore based events on the Pelican to brief and informally teach the boat crew on various traditional boat maintenance techniques. These plans were cut short due to Covid but will continue as soon as possible. Some students form the BBA have sailed on the Pelican's Ocean Science voyages and undertaken work placements.
The BBA has a long history with TS Pelican: Chair of trustees - Tim Gedge - project managed the refit in 2007 using a team of BBA graduates and one of the graduates crossed the Atlantic serving as her ship's carpenter.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Main activities undertaken for the public benefit
The BBA has recently employed a fundraiser to lead on increasing our bursary fund as well as capital funding and Covid mitigation. One element of this work is engaging the Dorset Local Enterprise Partnership. The submission to the Dorset Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) is aimed at making a contribution towards the discussion about the proposed Dorset Investment Prospectus; part of the LEP's response to the economic impacts of Covid-19 and the priorities within the Dorset Local Industrial Strategy (LIS).
The BBA is an important business within Lyme Regis, Dorset and the South West and in addition to connecting with the LEP, aspires to further establish its relationship with the local community and beyond:
-
Relationship development through the Dorset Coast Forum
-
Open days for locals, potential students, and all friends of the academy. The first was being organised for April this year. Unfortunately, this was postponed due to Covid 19 but will go ahead as soon as possible
-
Twice a year student boat launches - these usually draw a crowd of several hundred and are an important part of the Lyme Regis calendar
-
Planned short courses and evening classes for the local community
-
A programme of lectures open to all
-
A programme of school and college visits
The trustees have had due regard to the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit.
The Boat Building Academy Bursary scheme
In order to provide training to all people regardless of their financial position we have a scheme whereby potential students can apply for a bursary to cover up to 50% of the course fee. This is applicable to the 40-week and 12-week courses and is aimed specifically at impoverished people or in the words of the Charity Commission - 'the poor'.
The BBA currently holds a bursary fund to support 1 student on each of the next three 40-week and three 12-week courses with the aspiration to support two students on each boat building and furniture making course from 2022.
The BBA bursary scheme has been developed by trustees specifically with public benefit in mind. The trustees have developed a rigorous approach to selecting deserving students for bursaries. A key player in this process has been Gail McGarva who has significant experience with both sides of bursary programmes including QEST and the Arts Council.
The application process is open to students who have been offered a place at the BBA through the usual application process. They will complete a bursary application form before a given deadline. Those who meet the criteria will be invited to spend a day at the BBA where they will be interviewed by 2 trustees and will work with staff to assess their approach to work. The original plan was for applicants to spend 2-5 days in the workshops but this is difficult with Covid restrictions. It might be that 1 day is rigorous enough anyway; this will be decided by trustees.

STRATEGIC REPORT Achievement and performance
Charitable activities
In December 2017 an economic assessment of the Academy and its contribution to the local economy was carried out by the Policy & Research Unit, Dorset County Council. At that time the report concluded that …."the presence of the Boat Building Academy with the associated spending of students and their visitors, supports about 32 FTE jobs currently and contributes £1.16 million Gross Value Added to the local economy." As part of this review of the Academy's work, Dorset Council has undertaken to update this assessment, and the results are awaited.
To date, the BBA has trained 536 40-week boat building students and 167 12-week furniture makers. There have also been 1821 places on short courses (some students doing more than one course)
The boat building students who started in August 2019 had their training interrupted due to the Covid 19 lockdown but returned after 4 months to complete their course. As part of the training students build several boats per course and as usual the boats were built to an exemplary professional standard and launched in Lyme Regis harbour on 1 October. The launch on this occasion was a toned-down affair to reflect Covid restrictions.
Covid 19 has not curtailed interest or enquiries about courses at the BBA. A full course of 18 students started the current 40-week course on 12 October and there are already 17 hopefuls lined up for March 2021. The 12-week courses are set to be fully booked next year. Short courses are also looking healthy with regular enquiries and bookings.
The last course fee increases were in January and February 2019. They stand at:
40-week boat building £15,850 12-week Furniture £5,850 12-week Advanced Furniture Making £5,950 2-day short courses £275 5-day short courses £675 - £950
The next increase has been delayed until August 2021 due to the unstable financial situation caused by Covid 19
Financial review
Reserves policy
The BBA will always hold a diminishing figure to reflect the cost of running a course - if the academy had to close, adequate funds (variable dependent on student numbers) are held in order to either repay a percentage of the fees for the unused part of the course or to fulfil the commitment to the students - rent, materials, tutor cost etc.
In addition, the BBA aims to hold a significant reserve in order to secure the business during periods of financial difficulty. Student numbers have been strong over the last few years with reserves increasing annually. Year ending August 2019, the reserve stood at £114,807.
Results for the year ended 31 August 2020, show a net loss of £22,322 (2019 Profit of £83,882). At the year end reserves stand at £92,485, of which £10,000 is restricted funds and £20,000 is designated for Bursaries. This leaves £62,485 in general unrestricted funds which, less the NBV of tangible fixed assets at the year end, leaves a total of £58,255 in free reserves.

STRATEGIC REPORT Financial review
The impact of Covid 19 on the BBA
In accordance with government requirements, on 20 March 2020, the BBA had to close and stop teaching its students, in the middle of the boat building course it was delivering, with staff being furloughed. It was able to restart at a much-reduced level on 13 July 2020 in accordance with government guidelines and restrictions.
However, in view of the need to comply with Covid 19 social distancing restrictions and having regard to the close working environment involved in a boat building workshop, it was only possible to restart with 50% of the number of students that should have been on site completing their course. This has also involved students being organised into separate groups, in different areas of the building, to help avoid the possibility of infection spreading throughout the students and staff, should any Covid cases arise.
There is only one dedicated classroom, as the majority of the space is taken up by the two workshops, communal spaces such as kitchen and dining area and on the first floor, residential, student accommodation. In addition, in view of the need for students to 'spread out' within the spaces available, it has also not been possible to deliver the financially beneficial short courses,that help support the business. The result of these Covid impacts is that the LRBBA has lost £275,000 in reduced income and other unexpected costs to be able to operate under Covid restrictions.
The delay caused by the shutdown also meant that new students had not been able to start the next session of the boat building course at the expected time, which is the main source of income for the Academy. There is therefore an urgent need to create more workshop space and works are in hand to convert some of the first floor student living accommodation into classroom space, expand an existing mezzanine workshop over the main boat building area and undertake other re-organisation of spaces at ground floor level. The Academy is planning to take advantage of a government guaranteed loan scheme to assist in funding this work and is also applying to charitable trusts for support.
Future plans
The trustees are committed to:
-
continuing their current strategies of maintaining and improving the status of the BBA as a world-leader in the fields of boat building and furniture making by investing to provide the highest quality training to our students
-
continuing fundraising initiatives to provide bursaries to more applicants
-
remaining at the current site while maintaining and improving the buildings and facilities for the benefit of the training and student experience
-
Developing and expanding workshop space to allow training to continue in light of social distancing requirements
-
establishing the BBA as an important landmark in the local area as well as the larger business and charity community
-
using professional advisors where necessary
-
to constantly hold public benefit as the main driver in decision making
-
through rigorous discussion and challenging of ideas, policies and processes
-
fostering relationships with complimentary organisations both locally and further afield

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Organisational structure
The trustees are responsible for the overall management and control of the Boat Building Academy and meet formally twice a year. Policies are implemented by the Principal who is also a trustee. The Chair, Treasurer and Principal speak by phone or email regularly - usually on a weekly basis with other trustees included as appropriate. The Principal provides a report to the Board every two months detailing activities, financials, problems, opportunities, Covid 19 and any other issues arising.
The Principal is paid a salary and there is provision in the BBA articles of association to allow this. All other trustees give their time freely. While no remuneration or expenses were paid in the year, reasonable expenses are available to trustees.
The Principal undertakes the key leadership role; overseeing educational, pastoral and administrative functions in consultation with the training manager, tutors and the office manager. The day to day administration of the BBA is undertaken within the policies and procedures approved by the trustees which provide for only significant expenditure decisions and major capital projects to be referred to the Trustees for prior approval. The Principal oversees the recruitment of all staff.
Induction and training of new trustees
New trustees are issued with an induction pack containing:
-
Latest annual report and accounts
-
The most recent Principal's report
-
The most recent board and committee minutes
-
Copies of the BBA's key policies and procedures
-
Copies of the Commission's key pieces of guidance - particularly CC3 and the public benefit guidance
Four of the current trustees are graduates of the BBA Boat Building or Furniture Making courses and are therefore well-versed with the approach and ethos. Those trustees who are new to the BBA have a guided tour of the facilities and meet all the staff as part of their induction.
All trustees are invited to BBA events such as boat launches, furniture exhibitions and open days to give them a better understanding of the culture and purpose.
The Principal attended an online trustee training course run by lawyers - Farrers and accountants - Haysmacintyre. This, or other local trustee training courses are available to all trustees.
Key management remuneration
The Trustees including the Principal consider that they are the key management personnel. The Trustees give of their time freely. The pay and remuneration of the Principal and all other staff is set by the Trustees and is kept under annual review.
A number of criteria are used in setting pay:
-
Nature of the role and responsibilities
-
Competitor salaries in the region
-
The sector average salary for comparable positions
-
Trends in pay in recent years
Risk management
The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.
