The Alex Moulton Charitable Trust
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 objects of the Trust are:
-
To preserve, restore, maintain, and enhance, for the benefit of the public, the grounds and buildings of The Hall, Bradford on Avon
-
To advance the education of the public about the history and architecture of The Hall by providing or assisting in the provision of tours and educational events
-
To advance the education of the public in the subjects of engineering, design, science, industrial history and related subjects through the maintenance of an archive of educational materials and making such materials publicly accessible, and through lectures and other educational activities
-
To advance such other purposes which may be charitable according to the law of England and Wales
During the 2013 year the Charitable Trust received a gift, under a Deed of Appointment dated 5 July 2013, from the Alex Moulton Deceased Will Trust consisting of The Hall at Bradford on Avon, household and personal goods, land, properties, an investment portfolio and cash.
The Estate comprises of buildings dating from the 1610s through to the 1960s. The principal building is The Hall surrounded by c. 3.5 hectare Estate. Also within the Estate are stable blocks and drawing offices; terraced cottages; the Dovecote cottage; and three outside stone 'temples'. The Hall is a Grade I listed property dating from c. 1610 and it has been described as one of the most important buildings in England. The Terrace of the Hall is Grade II* listed, the Dovecote is Grade II listed and the Estate in its entirety is Grade II listed. The trustees consider that due to the history and architectural interest of the site, together with the historical and cultural significance of the artefacts connected with the industrial and engineering heritage of Bradford on Avon, the assets should be preserved for the future use and education of the general public.
The Trust's current aims are:
-
To promote The Hall, Bradford on Avon as a place of historical and architectural interest and natural beauty through events and education activities
-
To advance the education of the public, in particular (but not exclusively) in the subjects of engineering and design
-
Conserve and enhance the Hall and its collection
Significant activities
The charity is maintaining the heritage assets through a programme of issues reporting, risk identification and maintenance based on a prioritisation system. The Trust seeks to run the estate as an independent heritage site offering events, venue hire and education for visitors of all ages. In 2021:
-
The Trust continued to cautiously reinstate its events programme post-COVID running weekly open gardens (April - September 2021), open-air theatre (June 2021) and cinema (September 2021) and a small number of indoor tours.
-
The Trust deposited (but retained ownership) of its archival collection with Swindon & Wiltshire Records Office, which will ensure their longevity and improve public access (as per our charitable objectives).
-
The Trust carried out a policy and procedure audit, with an implementation schedule to ensure appropriate management practices and robust governance is in place.
-
The Trustees commissioned a support package, including the facilitation of an away day, from an expert consultant to ensure a clear vision and forward plan were identified.
-
The Project Director gave notice of resignation (January 2021). The Trustees amended the post to House & Estate Manager, and a new post holder was recruited (started in June 2021).
-
A new Trustee was recruited (September 2021) with expertise in historic buildings, architecture and town planning.
Public benefit
The charity trustees confirm that they have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit and have followed this in planning and undertaking the activities.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities
The charitable activity resources expended represent the costs incurred in maintaining and running The Hall and the grounds from the date the assets were donated to the Charitable Trust, with a view to ultimately enabling these assets to be utilised for awareness and education purposes for the general public. Educational events and tours were gradually reinstated in 2021. Access to educational materials was greatly improved by depositing the archival collections with Swindon & Wiltshire Records Office. Planning for the long-term preservation of the building and collection of objects in the Hall was initiated (continuing into 2022).
FINANCIAL REVIEW
The Trust maintains the Estate and does not receive external funding. Rental income is the main source of funds for the Trust. In 2021, the Trust had 5 residential tenants and 1 commercial tenant. The Trust reinstated events and venue hire post-COVID, which resulted in a small increase in income.
The Trust ran a deficit budget in 2021 and currently does not generate enough income to meet the operational budget. The level of usable reserves at 31 December 2021 was £669,444 (2020: £719,716) which covers more than 12 months likely expenditure in the coming year (based on 2021 financial statements). The trustees are, however, concerned about the rapidly diminishing free reserves and are seeking to address this as a matter of urgency.
The charity had net surplus for the year of £96,776 (2020: £7,919). Included within net income is £141,000 profit (£101,000) on investments (this pertains to an increase in market valuation of heritage properties that are rented out rather than a cash gain and thus is not useable). The in-year deficit on general funds was £50,272 (2020: £93,081), relating to heritage asset maintenance and management costs in excess of the income raised from the charities investments and activities.
Reserves policy
The Trust manages reserves to ensure the smooth and effective running of the organisation, the financial health of the Trust and the ability to forward plan. The cash balances are held to develop and meet the charitable objectives of the charity. The trustees have implemented a new reserves policy (June 2022), which identified that reserves can be used to:
-
Cover shortfalls when it is unable to generate sufficient income to cover operational costs.
-
Protect the Trust from unexpected drops in income or increases in costs.
-
Address significant site maintenance issues and capital works that cannot be met by the operational budget.
-
Invest in capital works, staffing and resource to further develop the income-generating capacity of the charity. Any emergency situations or unpredicted occurrences that require funding, including financial loss due to
-
- incidents, fraud and crime.
The Trust does not currently generate sufficient income to meet its operational needs. As such, the Trust runs a deficit budget and is using its reserves as above. The Trust currently holds sufficient reserves to operate for approximately 60 months. In summer 2021, The Trust began work to identify viable business models to improve income-generation to ensure the longevity of the Trust and continues this work into 2022.
Investment policy and objectives
The trustees maintain a portfolio of mixed motive investment properties that were part of the Estate left to the charity in 2013. These properties enable the charity to generate income but their illiquid nature do not contribute towards The Hall running costs. Furthermore, the properties have significant maintenance and repair requirements reducing their income-generating capability.
FUTURE PLANS
Following external advice commissioned from professional heritage architects and consultants which concluded that there is a viable way forwards for The Hall estate as an independently run heritage attraction, the Trustees appointed a Project Development Manager in April 2019 to take the project forwards. A 5-year plan was produced outlining the capital projects required to support visitors (toilets, ticket desk, café facilities etc) and other income streams that will be required to become financially sustainable including public events, venue hire and fundraising.
Considering Covid-19 and a more developed understanding of the site liabilities, the Trust has reviewed this plan and concluded that a visitor operation model will not generate sufficient income to support the financial liabilities of the Estate. The Estate incurs significant maintenance and repair costs. The Trust has identified a number of possible new income generation approaches and has been assessing these to ensure a viable new business model is selected. This work continues into 2022.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparing the financial statements
The Alex Moulton is a charitable incorporated organisation (CIO) registered in England and Wales. During the year all the assets and liabilities of the former unincorporated charity (charity registration number 273158) were transferred over to this new CIO (charity registration number 1190082) which was set up on 24 June 2020.
The address of the registered office is given in the charity information on page 2 of these financial statements. The nature of the charity's operations and principal activities are to apply resources for the purpose of maintaining and running The Hall Estate and Grounds.
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 (SORP) 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.
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 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.
Charitable activities
Charitable activity costs represent the costs of running and maintaining the heritage assets.
Governance costs
Governance costs include those costs associated with the constitutional and statutory requirements of the charity and include audit fees and costs linked to the strategic management of the charity.
Tangible fixed assets
Fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of each asset on a straight line basis over its expected useful life, which is six years for plant and machinery. Assets costing over £1,000 are capitalised.
Heritage assets
Heritage assets are assets of historical, artistic and scientific importance that are held to advance preservation, conservation and educational objectives.
Heritage assets are included at valuation at the date of addition.
No depreciation is charged on heritage assets on the basis that such depreciation is considered to be immaterial as the assets have an indefinite useful life and a high residual value.
Impairment reviews are carried out where considered appropriate.

Social investments
Mixed motive investment properties are held to generate a return for the charity, but also contribute to the charity's wider heritage objectives. Mixed motive investments are stated at the trustee's best estimate of market value. No depreciation is charged on investment properties.
All changes in value in the year, whether or not realised, are reported in the gains and losses on investment assets in the Statement of Financial Activities.
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.
Unrestricted designated funds have been set aside by the trustees out of unrestricted funds towards a specific purpose.
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.
