## **Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31st December 2021** 

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 31st 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** 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Charitable activities Summary of the Year** 

The ongoing challenges of the pandemic were unexpectedly long and we did not anticipate another year of such difficulties. However, I am pleased to report that the Charity and its activities have had a solid year putting in a better performance than 2020. And we continue to learn and adapt to our new operational environment to stay effective. 

As Chair, I would like to take this opportunity to thank all involved with the organisation for their dedication and hard work during 2021. We continue to solidify the significant amount of interest in all areas of horticulture and the study of the topic. We aim to continue to move forward on a profitable and sound footing. 

The adaption to our 'working name' **Working for Gardeners Association** has been smooth and somewhat overshadowed by the pandemic. 

Our ongoing communication, networking and relationship building within the horticultural industry continues to help raise our profile with the RHS, NGS, Perennial, to name a few.  Our membership has grown remarkably as detailed below. 

## **WFGA Membership** 

Our membership continues to grow and once again in 2021 with growth of 575 new members (vs +546 in 2020). We are delighted that our renewal rate is good and that existing membership continues to renew. 

We aim to offer more to our membership and have widened our benefits structure. Members enjoy the timely information delivered via our website and mailchimp emails, as well as our other benefits including newsletter. 

We expanded our zoom-based workshops, talks and events especially during the first few months of 2021 in the second lockdown. These have been very well received especially by those who are now able to join from all over the country rather than travelling to an event, so a positive development for our membership going forward. 

## **The WRAG Scheme 2021** 

The WRAG scheme this year has obviously been extremely challenging with a total of 135 placements in 2021 (vs 88 the previous year). Our Regional Manager team around the country and our office worked hard to ensure as much continuity as possible. And the number of trainees in gardens is impressive despite the backdrop. We are pleased to say that most of our trainees were able to return to complete their training this year without any major disruptions. 

Our challenge to find suitable Gardens continues across the country. Focused advertising especially for suitable gardens via social media and work with Trustees has enable some waiting lists to be tackled by RMs. All sorts of avenues are being explored to ensure we spread the word to Garden owners about the Scheme. 

Regional Managers. We now have a total of 17 Regional Managers. We have hired one RM during the year, and that was Grace G in the West Midlands, Derbyshire, Staffs area. 

Mentoring and supporting them all is Judith B., RM Bristol/Bath/Somerset. Judith's role is one of the most vital. As our Regional Manager Liaison, she works hard to communicate and support Regional Managers in all areas of their role. She also works with the Chair and the office in all areas of documentation. The use of technology, zoom and what's app communications have enabled to team to work efficiently together. And our Annual RM meeting this year will once again be via zoom.

**Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31st December 2021** 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Workshops, Skills Days, & Tours** 

A key part of the income for the WFGA, 2021 was a good year. For lockdown 2 at the beginning of 2021, it continued to be a lot of work behind the scenes at the office, to unwind all those events planned and monitor government guidelines as per lockdown 1. 

But our 2021 programme was significantly enhanced with more of our own online platform of events, talks and workshops. These have been very well received especially by those who are able to join from all over the country, so a positive development for our membership going forward.  This has resulted in successful revenues from this area in 2021. 

We were unable to organise any trips or tours in 2021 and have put those to one side to revisit in 2023. 

## **The Office** 

2021 was also a good year for the team. Despite the office being closed until March, Julia and Tracy were able to work at home successfully. They both handled the second covid crisis extremely well and were able to visit the office individually when necessary. There was no disruption to their administrative services. They continue to deal with all enquiries and the day-to-day issues that arise including huge email traffic. They continue to conduct a number of different roles; from accounts, bursary payment management, to hands on logistics of the workshop programme and tours. 

I am pleased to say that we did not have to furlough any of our Staff during 2021. 

## **The WFGA Board** 

The Board had a good year. We met five times over zoom which we now regarded as a very good use of time rather than driving around the country. Certainly we do hope to meet in person once or twice a year in the future to be discussed. We were fortunate to welcome two new trustees onto the Board. Christabel Boersma is our Newsletter Editor as well as a WRAG graduate joined us in March 2021. Amanda Ponsonby accepted our invitation to join us in October, she is an Oxfordshire based garden owner with WRAG trainees in her garden. The Board will be able to use her experience and insights in this area. The Board will continue to work on building out the Board of Trustees with specific skillsets in future. 

## **Communications** 

Positive messaging continued to be a key part of our operations this year. Members have been very receptive to our twice monthly mailchimps in between the newsletter issues. 

Through these regular membership emails, we are able to advertise our Workshops & Skills days and get very quick responses and positive feedback. These combined with our ongoing website updates, social media links, have developed in a positive way, spreading the word to all those involved from garden owners, head gardeners to potential new members. 

The ongoing positive impact of our redesigned website (2018) continues to drive overall increased activity. We continue to monitor and make changes to various parts of the website, including the Forum. 

**Our quarterly newsletter** continues to receive quality input from members, RMs and staff. We are delighted with the  results and thank Christabel Boersma for her ongoing work as Editor. Christabel became a Trustee in March 2021. The newsletter continues to be a solid benefit to members and contributions are welcomed. 

## Bursaries 

We continue to work with the Christine Ladley Fund and thank Lars-Olav Nicols for his support in this. In 2021 the Fund supported 10 WRAGS graduates / WFGA Members with awards to fund gardening equipment, tools and further education and training opportunities.

## **Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31st December 2021** 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

Our relationship with the NGS continued into its 5th year of our Bursary. We were able to offer the Bursary to 10 Gardens through fully funded or half funded trainee grants. We are pleased to say some of these gardens have opened for the NGS for the first time, and some have taken on further trainees or hosted workshops for the WFGA. Another thank you to our Regional Managers and especially Tracy in the Office for their administration in making these placements happen and to keep up the hard work during the pandemic. Towards the end of the year, the NGS were able to offer the Bursary again for  gardens going into 2022 and we are wo rking now to allocate those funds. 

We also received Bursary funds from the **George Cadbury Foundation** , for supporting two gardens in and around Birmingham. These have been gratefully received. 

Finally, as Chair, you will have seen above. Whilst another difficult year for everyone, I believe we are stronger for it and we have done an amazing job in stabilising the Charity. 

I am confident that we have steered the Charity in the right direction. I believe we can cope better with challenges in the future (hopefully not another pandemic!). We can embrace the opportunities these changes will bring. We continue to be  considered in high regard by the many UK horticultural organisations and we look forward to working with them in future. 

Once again, I would like to take this opportunity to thank my colleagues for all their support and hard work throughout this year, it has been invaluable. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial position** 

2021 was a year of recovery for the WFGA. As the vaccine program was rolled out and gardens started to open up with  fewer restrictions, the Regional Managers were able to gradually increase their activities across the country, and trainee registration fees increased to £83,150 by the end of the year compared to £47,828 at the end of 2020. Income received from subscriptions again increased to £38,139, and garden owner subscriptions almost doubled to £4,149. Gift Aid totalling £5,737 reflects the subscriptions received during 2020 

As the WFGA embraced digital technology along with the rest of the world to aid communication, we offered talks via Zoom which have proved very successful. There was still too much uncertainty to resume a full program of garden tours, workshops, and practical skills days and so the majority of the net income of £12,048 was generated from the digital method of delivery.  This compares with £6,249 in 2020 and £12,475 in 2019. 

The WFGA net income for 2021 of £39,752 includes donations totalling £6,316 within Donations and legacies, which are always welcome. £30,000 of the 2020 donations were placed in a 12-month fixed interest deposit account, with the aim of using it for capital expenditure such as a new CRM system to streamline our national business operations. This will be moved forward in 2022 when further quotations have been received. 

Our reserve fund with Quilter Cheviot gained momentum in 2021 and ended the year at £58,113 up from £52,810 at the end of 2020.  The current volatility in the market due to the war in Ukraine is expected to settle down as tensions ease. 

Just before the end of the year, we were awarded the 2nd year of our 3-year Bursary from the National Garden Scheme totalling £65,000. This is carefully managed and allows trainees to be placed in gardens that would otherwise not be able to afford a placement.  We currently receive an administration fee of £300 per garden. 

As we progress into 2022, the charity will continue to streamline processes and embrace technology to move with the changing world. I would like to thank the Trustees, Office Staff and Regional Managers for ensuring that the WFGA persists in emerging strongly from the pandemic, and for their continued commitment to Advancing Horticulture.

## **Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31st December 2021** 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Reserves policy** 

A reserves policy is necessary to ensure there is sufficient income to tide an organisation over in order that it may meet its liabilities, whilst fundraising is done, if and when existing sources of income are lost. If WFGA were to be wound up, it also enables contractual obligations to be met. The board has chosen to have a zero reserves policy at this time. The reason for this is that we can identify our liabilities with relative ease (office premises, payroll to staff and expense obligations to Regional Managers and supplier expenses). It is estimated that these costs would not exceed £15,000. At the same time, The trustees retain an externally managed, cautious investment portfolio - a ‘rainy day’ fund, which has a net value of £58,390 at 31st December 2021. The value of this investment is monitored carefully on an ongoing basis but it should be noted that it is an unrestricted fund and can be liquidated with relative ease. This combined with other net assets of £122,895 leaves us confident that we meet all obligations. This is over and above coverage of liabilities arising in the event of a wind up of the charity. 

## **Covid-19** 

The Trustees are aware that issues and challenges as we emerge from the pandemic will have an effect on the investments and income of the WFGA. We are closely monitoring the accounts on an ongoing basis and making adjustments to costs and income where possible. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document** 

The Association is a company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006. The governing document of the charity is its Memorandum and Articles of Association dated 11 December 1929 (as altered by Special Resolutions on 1 April 1950 and 18 April 1964) and Articles of Association passed by Special Resolution at the AGM 10th July 2011.The Articles of Association were updated and amended by Special Resolution on 19th September 2020 to comply with the latest Charity Commission regulations, and the working name of Working for Gardeners Association was adopted on the same date. These documents can be viewed in the members section of the WFGA website. They are also available on the Charity Commission website for the general public to access at any time. 

In the event of the company being wound up, members are required to contribute an amount not exceeding £1. 

The Board of Trustees set the agenda and budget for the Association. A Trustee is elected for a period of three years, with re-election for a further three, after six years the Trustee must step down for a period of at least one year. 

The Chairman of the Board of Trustees is selected from within the Board. 

## **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. The trustees reviewed and updated the WFGA Risk Management policy document in accordance with government advice in 2022.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Women's Farm & Garden Association(The)** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Women's Farm & Garden Association(The) ('the Company')** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31st December 2021. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act'). 

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or 

4. the accounts 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 accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)). 

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Fixtures and fittings - 20% on reducing balance
