Tntst Aclivities The Trustees fvlfil Trust Aims and Objectives through five areas of work- managin9 green spaces and buildings, planning, projects, education. and engagement including membership, and in accordance with the Charity Commission guidelines on public benefit. We were joined by over 70 members at this yearfs AGM at Pembroke College, and we thank them for hosting us. Our speaker was OPT Trustee Carole Souter, who spoke about her role as Interim Chair of Historic Royal Palaces, highlighting the work of HCT and the similarities to OPT. Carole also highlighted the significant events of both the death of Queen Elizabeth11 and the Coronation of Kiw Charle5111 within the space ol the year and how HCT were involved. This year saw the 18th Oxford Open Doors and we celebrated foty-six years of the OPT Award5 as our opportunity to recognise the wonderful work of others. We have continued with our green spaces projects al the newfy acquired Larkins Lane and Harcourt Hill Fields and completed our woodland restoration project at Boars Hill. The new fencing at the Old Be￿eleY Golf Course was installed in plenty of tirne before November when we welcomed Sir Philip Pullman to plant an English Oak to mark the Coronation of King Chades 111. We continue to express our gratitude to the William Delafield Charitable TTUSt who support our herrtage projett work and are delighted that our Discovering Heritage and Green Spaces project will shortly be rolled out to Wood Farm where we look forward to woting with the local communty. At the beginning of 2023 the Trustees launched their new committee stTUCture to support our strategy "Towards the Centenary - Our Strategic Plan to 2027° with membership and terms of reference for each committee being agreed. The five Committees ot Planning. Heritage, Engagement Green Spaces and Finance, a￿ each chaired by a Trustee, with a membership of two to three other Trustees and co-opted members with relevant skills. The Committees all report to both the Sustainability and the Executive committee and then to the full Trustee board in a cycle of quarterty meetings. We will review the effectiveness of our new structure in 2024 to ensure its effectiveness in delivering the strategy. Also in 2023, we launched the Centenary Fund to support our future project work as we look forward to celebrating the Icoth anniversary of the Trust in 2027. We are extremely grateful for all who have supported the appeal and look forward to sharing more of our cente￿ary Plans in 2024. By far though, the most significant event of the year was Debbl• Dante's decision in Januaryto retire as Director after 25 years of service to the TrusL Debbie gave her full SLlPPOrt as we launched a fecruitment process for a new Chief Executive o￿lter with an eX￿ptionallY strong field of candidates applying. In August we were delighted to announce the appointment of Anna Eavts as our new CEO. Anna has a huge wealth of

experien￿ in the heritage sector and is currently, Curatorial Director at English Heritage with responsibility for the stewardship and presentation of over four hundred historic sites, their collections and landscapes. Anna is a Trustee of Leeds Castle and a member of the fabric committees at both Canterbury and Salisbury cathedra15. She has a particular interest in medieval stained gla55 and ha5 long been a committee member of the Corpus Vitrearum, a BrÈtish Academy-funded project dedicated to the research and publication of historic stained glass in Britain. She was formerly a Trustee of the Stained Glass Museu Anna has Irved in East Oxford for twenty years and we look forward to welcorning her to the Trust in January. Trustees M•tte We remain grateful to all the Trustees who brir4J an enviable range of expertise and experience to the Trust. At the AGM we noted with sadness the decision of Ann Campbell arKI Chades Cooper to stand down. Ann Campbell had served as a Trustee since 2005, bringing her legal expertise to bear on a number of i5sue5 faced by the Tnjst. Ann also championed our interests in Oxford Castle as Chair of the Castle Commrttee. Charles Cooper had been a Trustee since 1999, acting as Vice Chair, chairing the Finance & Executive meeting and a member of the Investment Committee. His business expertise, common sense and good humour will be missed. Both Ann and Chades have been appointed as Vice Presidents in recognition of their long service and support of the Trust We were also sorry to note that John Church also decided to retire at the end of the year having chaired first the Investment Committee and then the Finance Committee. In these roles he was invaluable in ensuring we remain in strong financial shape. In June we were pleased to welcome Mark Beard who was elected as a Trustee who brings a tremendous business experience in the construction industry. Team Matt•rs The m05t significant change to the team wa5 of course the retirement of Debbie Dance as Director at the end of the year (see Trust Activities above). Stephen Dawson as Operations Director has continued to give Debbie nd the tearn invaluable support and ensure the smooth day to day operation of the Trust across all its work. Nina Urai as Development and Communications Officer has tsken the lead on our new website projert to be launched in 2024, as well as leading on the co-ordination of the annual Oxford Open Doors evenL Chadie Jackson did not return to work after her maternity leave, instead moving to Exeter where her husband's work had been relocated. We wish herwell. This meant that Hannah Brockwell who was covering Charlie's maternity leave as Green Spaces Officer ha5 Stayed on with us and has done wonders with increasing our volunteer engagement and working on projerts at Larkins Lane, Harcourt Hill and Boars Hill. Laura Warden, as Senior Planning Officer. continues to bring a wealth of experience to our planning work and is ably assisted by Shona Carr who also organises the OPT Awards. We were delighted that Shona gained a distinction in MSC Historic Conservation at Oxford Brookes which OPT 5UPPOrtÈd. Louise Lockyer joined us as Heritage and Membership Officer in February 2023 and quickly showed her ability in ably boking after our growing membership and organising our annual events" programme. Hywel Edwards, as Finance and Govemance Officer, continues to ensure our finances remain in good shape and give5 invaluable support to the team. Green SpKes Thi5 year we have been working towards opening up the two spaces acquired in 2022, instslling new fencing on Boars Hill and continuing to work with our land agen( ecological advisers and volunteers to manage our green spaces. Larklns Lane Fleld A great deal has been achieved this year towards opening up thi5 space, includirrfj duty of care tree work& installing fencing and gates arKI clearing large areas of nettles and brambles. The small stream running through the space is a remnant of a spring fed alkaline fen las present at the nearby Dunstan Park) and our contractor, Rod d'Ayala, with volunteers has started restoring the fen by widenin9 the profile of the stream and installing leaky, log dams to re-wet the area. Seeds donated by Friends of the Lye Valley have been sown and over time

wetland plants will establish and peat will form. This restoration is a nature-based solution towards tsckling climate change and we will continue the work WFth volunteers in 2024. Harcourt Hlll Fl•lds Vegetation clearance work has been carried out in the newly acquired field which arguably has the best view of the dreaming 5pire5 of all OPT'S green spaces. We await the results of an environmental survey to asse55 the space as a Local Wildlife Site. In 2024 we will progress the management of thi5 space making the field ready for grazing, with fencing and water troughs instslled. Boars HIII In Spring 2023, the Trust for Oxford5hire'5 EnvironmenVNetwork.Rail funded woodland management project was completed where we have opened up three areas (Matthew Amold Reserve, Jarn Heath. and Abraham Wood) to increase biodiversity and improve access. Aftercare of the areas has been included in our management plans going forward. The replacement of the fencing and gates along the top boundary of the Old Berkeley Golf Course was carried out in the Springlsummei made possible by a generous legacy from the late Peter Robinson. In 2024, we W￿11 work on plans to open up Uncombe Lane Fleld and Reserve to improve public acces5 and increase biodiversity. New signage at H•yford Meadow has been installed with support from Sandford on Thames Parish CoLtncil as part of our new wayfindlng. slgnage. and Intèrpr•tatlon proJ•d. Designs are being wot*ed on for green spaces across Boars Hill and will be installed in 2024. In February 2023 the Environment Agency served a Compulsory Purchase Order for the Oxford Fl¢od Alleviation channel IOFASI to acquire the land and rights to land needed to build the scheme. A Public Inquiry Was scheduled for the ALrtumn and we assembled a team of experts to assist our legal team in presenting a case for considering alternatives to protert the rare MG4a gra551and in Hinksey Meadow. The Inquiry will close in January 2024 and we expect a decision to be reached in Summer 2024. Alongside this we still await the outcome of the planning application for the OFAS to which we have also engaged and submitted a response. We are grateful to Dr Tim King and Dr Judy Webb who carried out the annual count of Snakehead Fritillaries. At Marston Hamm although relations With the Grosvenor Estate have improved there are still a number of obligations to fulfil and the Green Spaces committee will meet on site to discuss this in 2024. Another successful hay crop was taken this year and aftermath grazing with cattle has meant further impiovement in the condition of the meadows. We expect Thames Water to connect the water supply in early 2024. We are also at the earty stages of considering a wider partnership with other landowners in the Marston area on an ecosyslem restoratlon projert on fields along the River Cherwell. OPT hold a number of legal covenants on land and property around Oxford which help in protecting the historic environment and its green setting. We visited Shotover as part of this yearfs Progress and the Trustees continued their conversations about the City Council's proposal for a burial meadow on land there. At South Park the Oxford Artisan Distillery have consulted us on revised plans for the site to include provision of public WC and café facilities with plans to submit a planning and listed building consent application shortly. The Trustees have expressed their deep concem about the damage caused as a result of the annual fireworks event which has limited public access to some parts of the pa￿ We are liaising with the City Council and the Friend5 of South Park constnJctively to ensure that repairs to the park are carried out a5 500n as weather conditions allow and to consider how future events in the park are managed and organised going fotward.

Voluntwrs and Engag•meTrt Hannah Brockwell has been working closely with volunteers at ourGreen Spaces thisyear and monthly sessions continue at W0￿erC0te Lakes and Heyford Meadow. The regulor work parties at Larkins Lane are fully establish￿ and a new group will be estsblished next year to look after the Rewley Road Swln9 Brldgè and suffounding lanéKape. To support the stewardship of ourgreen spaces, work parties have also been carried out at Boars Hill (Abraham Wood. Old Berkeley Golf Course, Matthew Amold Field & Reserye, Jarn Heath, Jam Mound and Wild Garden and Elvzabeth Daryush Memorial Garden), Kennington Memorial Field, lffley Island / Meadow Lane, lffley Glebe, Simons Land and Wolvercote Lakes. Continuing our tradition of tree planting to commemorate Royal events, on 25th November Sir Philip Pullman planted an English Oak on the Old Bwk•l•y Golf Cours• to mark the Klng's Coronatlon and also to thank the family of Peter Robinson who left a very generous legacy donation to OPT. We were delighted to be joined by the local community, volunteer5. SUPPQrters, and Scouts from Abingdory Wootton, and Dry Sandford. We then warmed up at Youlbury Scout Adventures Centre with tea and cake. Other events in our green spaces included a Meadow Day walk with Julian Munby around Hinksey Meadow, a walk and talk around Matthew Amold Field and Reserve and Jarn 4eath with Rod d'Ayala, as well as Old Headington Open Gardens and Apple Day at Wolvercote Community Orchard. We are very grateful to our OPT volunteers, Abingdon Green Gym. Oxford Conservation Volunteers and Oxford Good Gym. Their contribution and hard work is crucial towards supporting the management of our green spaces. Propertles The Palnted Room continues to delight visitors with our popular monthly tours and a special visit this year for pupils from Marazion Primary School, Comwall and at Oxford Open Doors we welcomed 1,30D visitors across the weekend. For the first time this year Shakespoare Birthday Cel•bratlons began at Oxford Castle & Prison where we welcomed Oxford Spires. Students to perform to invited guests and the public, and then the patade led by our own 'Shakespeare' town crier and with music from the Oxford Waits, made their way to the Painted Room. Shakespeare Scholar, Dr Robert Stagg, raised the toast to the immortal bard in malmsey & sac with a further inspiring perforrnance by the students of Oxford Spires. We hope next year to increase the range of events as part of our annual Shakespeare celebrations. Towards the end of the year works began to complete the restoration of the Painted Room with thanks to support from the Eyre Estate and William Delafield Charitable Trust and we welcomed James Mackintosh Architects who now (KCUPY the upper floor.

Later in the day we were also joined by Network Rail Chair, Peter Hendy, Baron Hendy of Richmond Hill to see the restored Swing Bridge followed by a boat ride to take in the view from the water. Oxlord Castle & Prison continues to perfom well with an increased number of visitors over the course of the year despite challenges due to the Botley Road closures and works to the railway. We have also continued to see an increased number of school visits acr055 the year. Jerirho Coffee Traders have become well established in the café building with a loyal customer base and we continue to engage with site owners Land Securities regarding enlivening the rest of the Castle Quarter. We were delighted to base ourselves in the ca5tleyard again for Oxford Open D¢)ors, creating a hNe of actwity with various events and artivitie5, and our lighting of the Chri5tma5 tree has now become an annual event with the tree kindty donated by St John's College. We are grateful to the County Council who completed repair works to the shop roof and who are now working on the repair of the roof to Debtors, Tower. We continue to experien￿ problems of anti-social behaviour on the Mound which is also damaging the stru(ture, and we continue to engage the County and Historic England to try to find a solutton. Plonning We are grateful to members of our planning committee who share their views, expertise and knowledge throughout the year. Rajat Gupta- Professor of Sustainable Architecture and Climate Change- also joined the planning committee and we are grateful to have his expert input in terms of sustainability. In line with the wider OPT Strategy, a Sustainability'task force, sub-committee will be established to develop a sustainability strategy and guidance document to help inform future work and comments on planning matters. The day-to-day work of the planning team continued during 2023 including the review of weekly planning lists and identifying applications where OPT may wish to comment reviewing planning applications, attending pre- application meetings and rewewing and submitting comment5 on planning policy where relevant. We a150 have regular meetings with Officers from the City Council and other advisory 9roups such as Historic England, to ensure we are aware of current pressures and issues within planning. Since announcing the cancellation of their joint strategic planning policy document last yeaf IOxPlan50), the various local authorities have been working independently on producing their own up-to-date policy documents. As now seems to be tradition, Oxford Citys consultation on the draft Local Plan 2040 ran over the Christmas period. OPT submitted comments mainly relating.to five key issues that run through the document as a whole= heritage, Oxford's green setting, protecting views in and out of the city, improving and protecting the public realm, tourism, and access to green spaces and connectivity between them.

We await a consultation by Vale of White Horse and South Oxrordshire District Council earty in the new year for their emerging plan. We will continue to monitor the progress of the Local Plans and will engage as required throughout the process. Two key issues which continue to provide a pressure within and around the Cty are the demand for Life Science research space and a continued demand for large areas of green space to accommodate solar farm schemes around the city. OPT attend pre-application meetings Wlth developers and try to ensure that when schemes come foNard the potential impact on things such as long-di5tance views in and out of the aty have been fully considered and assessed so the potential implications can be lully understood. Discussions with the County Council have been ongoing regarding the future of Broad Street OPT submitted comments. in consultation with Kim Wilkie Architects on the County Council consultation document regarding the future opportunities for Broad Street following the trial pedestrianisation scheme. The County Council have also informed us that they have begun work on a Central Oxfordshire Movement and Place Framework ICOMPFI - we look forward to working alongside other key stskeholder to assist with the produrtion of this document which aims to provide a blueprint for public realm transfonnation across Oxford its surrounding area. Awards Thé Annual OPT Awards are intended to be a celebration ol the best in new design, sustainability and historic conservation, and the contribution these buildings can make to Oxford and the Surrounding area5. This year we had 52 entries, ranging from large new developments to small. but still swnificanl, works of conservation.

Through a series of development sessions and meetings, the group identified barriers to engagement for young people attending heritage events. Through these findings the group planned and delivered a t-shirt upcycling workshop and self-guided graffiti trail for Oxford Open Doors. Visitors were encouraged to bring old t-shirts and tote bags to the Oxford Castle Quarter. where Mani ran a silkscreen printing workshop where wsitors could print Oxford landmarks, such as the Radcliffe Camera. Headington Shark and Sheldonian Heads onto pre-loved items. After Pfinting. while their t-shirts dried. visitors were encouraged to follow the heritage graffiti trail. The event Was featured in The Guardian newspaper and turned out to be hugely successful, with over 300 attendees. We have received positive feedback from those who participated and our Instagram following has grown by over 4CK) followers since the end of May. with a considerable skew towards a younger demographic. We intend to build on this succe55 to continue engagement of young people with our wor< events, and membership. This year we were delighted to continue the OPT Internshlp AwJrd which recognises an Oxford Brooke5 student studying the Historic ConseNation MSC.

The financial strategy of the Tnjst is to balance income and expenditure over the longer term and the OPT team, led by the Director, work hard to achieve this, keeping down c05ts of administration and seeking value for money on necessary expendrtures. OPT operates a policy where all project work funding must be identified befo￿ work lakes place. Expenditure on reviewing and commenting on plannin9 proposals continues to reflect the importance of this area of OPT'S work with £49,227 being spent on this aspect in addition to the OFAS.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS. REPORTTO THE MEMBERS OF OXFORD PRESERVATION TRUST IConllnu•dl Audltorfs responslbilltles for the audlt of the flnanclal statements Our objective5 are to obtain reasonable assurance al)out whether the firbancial statements as a whole are free from material misststemenL whether due to fiaud or eyror, and to issue an auditorfs report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAS IUK) will always delect a material misstatement when it exists. Mi55tatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material rf, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be experted to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basi5 of these financial statements. Irregularities. including fraud, are instsnces of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, Outlined above, to detert rnaterial rni55tstements in re5pe¢t of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detectin9 irregularities including fraud is detailed below.. Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities. Including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations. was as follows: the ergagement partner ensured that the en9agement team collectively had the appropriate ompetence, capabilitie5 and ski115 to identify or recognise non-compliance with applicable law5 and regulations- we identrfied the lows and regulations applicable to the charity through disCUs5ion5 With trustees and other management, and from our knowledge and experience," we focused on specific laws and regulation5 which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial ststement5 or the operations of the charity-, we assessed the ex1ent of compliance wth the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management and inspecting legal correspondence,. and identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regulady and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit. We assessed the susceptibility of the charity's financial statements to material misstatemenL including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by.- making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud,. and considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and ￿n-COmpliance with laws and regulations. To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we: performed analy1ical procedures to identfy any unusual or unexpected relationship tested joumal entries to identify unusual transactions., assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates were indicative of potential bias,- and investigated the rationale behind Significant or unusual transactions. 21

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS. REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF OXFORD PRESERVATION TRUST (Continu￿) In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance wth laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to: agreeirKJ financial statement disclosures to sjndertying supporting documentation,. reading the minutes of meetings of those charged with govemance; and enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims. There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulation5 are from financial transactions. the less likely it 15 that we would become aware of non- cornpliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identty non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the trustees and other management and the inspertion of regulatory and legal correspondence, rf any. Material misststements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detert than those that arise from error a5 thty may involve deliberate Concealment or collusion. A further description of our Tespon5ibilr¢ie5 is available on the Finanaal Reporting Council'5 website at This description forms part of our auditorfs report. Use of our report This report is made solely to the Charitys members, as a body, in accorda￿e with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companie5 Act 2C4)6. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might State to the CharitVs member5 those matters we are required to state to them in an auditorfs report and for no other purpose.
