GLENDALE AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY
TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2025
Achievements and performance
The AGM was held on 4 March 2025 at the Wooler Golf Club, and was well attended. Several new Committee Members were welcomed, as well as a newly elected Trustee that evening - Sophie Wilson.
Doug Kinsey resigned as Trustee in March, followed by Euan Gibson at the AGM. The Society is grateful for their many years’ service, advice and guidance and extend their sincere thanks to them both.
There are now eight directors and trustees.
The Society's first event of 2024-2025 was a Coffee Morning on the 22 March, held at the Glendale Hall, Wooler. This was a successful event, bringing the community together while raising awareness of the Children’s Countryside Day and the work of the Society.
The Society held a Members’ event on the 6 May. Simpsons Malt, Berwick-upon-Tweed very kindly hosted us and provided a tour of their site.
This was followed on June 5 by the annual Children's Countryside Day held on the showfield. This one-day interactive educational event reinforces the objectives of the Society, aiming to give children of all abilities aged 5-11 years first hand experience of rural life.
It celebrates our local heritage and culture; engages the local community and showcases the rural diversification of the Glendale area. Exhibitors share their knowledge with the children attending, to explain where food comes from and how it is produced - with an emphasis on giving a wider understanding of the countryside, the environment and the people who work in the rural economy.
The event is organised by a team of dedicated and enthusiastic volunteers for the benefit of schools from across the region, plus one full-time and one part-time member of staff. It is also a highly anticipated event in the school calendar.
The Society is indebted to local organisations, businesses, individuals and 150 volunteers for their contributions (financial and in-kind) to the day. The effect of these contributions resulted in the attendance of our highest number to date of 70 enthusiastic exhibitors, without whom the event could not be staged. In conclusion, an excellent, successful day was enjoyed by all who attended.
The Horticultural and Industrial Committee held their annual Plant Sale and Coffee Morning (10 June) which was the most successful of all coffee mornings held and boosting funds for the H & I section.
The Annual Show took place on August Bank Holiday Monday as usual - 25 August.
The weather was extremely hot and dry, with visitors coming along to enjoy a day in the sunshine. The actual number of attendees was about 5,500 - down slightly on last year.
The proprietors of the trade stands reported a healthy trade, with cash sales remaining in line with 2024. There was a strong number of entries in the livestock section, as well as a record number of entries in the equine section. Both were supported by an enthusiastic team of stewards.
A second Coffee Morning was held on the 15 November, which was once again a very successful morning, raising funds for the Children’s Countryside Day. It was great to see new volunteers helping and a healthy number of the local community in attendance.
The Directors and Trustees are mindful of their duty to ensure the Society is appropriately funded to deliver its primary objectives. They will continue to adhere to their reserving policy with a focus on maintaining adequate resources, while actively managing expenditure and maximising income generating activity.

In preparing these financial statements, the directors and trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

TO THE DIRECTORS AND TRUSTEES OF GLENDALE AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY
I report to the directors and trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Glendale Agricultural Society (the Society) for the year ended 30 September 2025.

-
2 the financial statements do not accord with those records; or
-
3 the financial statements do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 other than any requirement that the financial statements give a true and fair view, which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
-
4 the financial statements have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their financial statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).

GLENDALE AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2025
1 Accounting policies
Charity information
Glendale Agricultural Society is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is 8 Market Place, Wooler, Northumberland, NE71 6FL.
1.1 Basis of preparation
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Society's governing document, the Companies Act 2006, FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Charities SORP "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)". The Society is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The Society has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities not to prepare a statement of cash flows.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the Society. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
1.2 Going concern
At the time of approving the financial statements, the directors and trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Society has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the directors and 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 directors and trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
1.4 Income
Income is recognised when the Society 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 Society 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 at the time of the donation.
All grants are used for charitable expenditure and capital items and are recognised in full in the year in which they are receivable, or when the conditions for receipt have been met.
Membership subscriptions are recognised in the year in which they are received.
Investment income comprises bank interest receivable in the year.
Turnover is measured at the fair value of the consideration received or receivable and represents amounts receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business, net of discounts.

1 Accounting policies
(Continued)
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. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
1.6 Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
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:
Property improvements 10 years straight line Show equipment 3 and 4 years straight line Office equipment 5 years straight line Trailers 5 years straight line
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.
1.7 Impairment of fixed assets
At each reporting end date, the Society reviews the carrying amounts of its 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).
1.8 Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, 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.
1.9 Financial instruments
The Society 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 Society's balance sheet when the Society 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 set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

(Continued)
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Derecognition of financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are derecognised when the Society’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.
1.10 Employee benefits
The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.
Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the Society is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.
2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the Society’s accounting policies, the directors and trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
