Ob ertives and actlvltles To continue to maintain and encoura8e the ecological enhancement of the area of land known as Langaford Farm, North Bovey in order to sustain and improve the wide diversity of both plant and animal life found on the fam).

Publlc bene The primary aim of Langaford Farm Trust ha5 alwèys been to keep the East Dartmoor agricultural holding known as Langaford Farm as an exemplary in-bye farm. The Trust ha5 followed the principals of land management which our benefactor Geoffrey Bayes desired. that is to manage the site to a high ecological value and maintain the features ' and character of a granite in-bye farm. From the Trusts fofmation in 2021. it has provided education, respite and recreation facilities for a wide range of people who have gained benefit frorn and been inspired by the qualities of the environment. The Trust has further developed its links with other organisations that share our common punblic benefit objectives. particulary those in the fields of well bein& mindfulne55, as well as maintainin8 and increasin8 links involvin8 research. education, environmental management and local community development. Now the Trust has improved Visitor facilities its long term objective of providing the local and widercommunitie5 Wlth a farni based community hub will now be able to be more effectively pursued. Achlevements and rforniance During the past year the trustees continued to tske full responsibility for the actual day to day and financial management of the land and buildings at Langaford Fami. The farm has been used for agricultural therapy, open days and educational camping. The trustees remain dedicated in their pursuit of the aims and objertives of the trust and wherever possible have taken an active part in caring for the land and buildin8S. Financlal review The trust expects to meet its revenue expenditure out of its operating income and grants. However, where expenditure on the farni, is incurred of a capital nature lincludin8 fencin& hedging and other improvin8 workl. this may require financing from the disposal of investments. During the year the trustees decided to remain with their investment managers. Hawksmoor. and their investment policy is to invest in assets that are low to medium risk. The trust had cash reserves. including cash held in the investment portfolio of £1.84112024 £1.0341 at the end of the year, and the market value of investments arnounted to £35.58212024 £34.3061. Goin concern The charity's main source of income is fami income and gain on disposals in relation to the fixed asset investments. The trustees have considered the impact on cash reserves and the liquidity of the investment5 and are satisfied that the charity is a going concern.
Reserves The trustees have set a reseThes policy which requires that reserves be maintained at J level which ensures that the trust's core activities continue during a period of unfor5een difficulty and that a proportion of reserves be maintained in a readily realisable form. The trustees consider readily realisable reserves to be the amount of reserves that are easily converted in to cash should the need arise. The calculation of the required level of reserves is an integral part of the trust's plannin& budgeting and forecasting cycle. It tskes into account the risks associated with each stream of income and expenditure varying frorn budget,. the planned ctivity level.. and the trust's future commitments. The trustees will now assess the reserves policy on a annual basis. They will discuss levels of readily realisable reserves against the trust's rnain commitments and market valuation of investments. The main risks to both income and expenditure will be highlighted and a calculation made of the possible financial consequences of adverse movements. The trustees will use this information to ensure an adequate level of readily realisable reserves is maintained. The trustees agreed the turrent reserves policy to be a minimum of £30,]. As at the 31st March 2025, the total of cash and realisable investments amounted to £71.17912024 £57.9561- The excess over the desired minimum will continue to be monitored but is considered prudent in the light of uncertainty over future funding levels. The trustees declare that they have approved the trustees. report above. Signed on behalf of the charity5 trustees Date 24th September 2025
