## **The National Honey Show Ltd Trustees Report 2025 For the period 1[st] February 2024 to 31[st] January 2025** 

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 period 1 February 2024 to 31 January 2025. 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 Charity are to advance the science of apiculture and for the benefit of the public: 

- (a) to support and encourage good apicultural husbandry and management, 

- (b) to promote an awareness of the importance of bees in the environment, and 

- (c) to promote and further the craft of apiculture. 

These are achieved through the media of both national and international competitive classes for honey and related products. Coupled with the Annual Show there is a Trade Exhibition, and a full educational lecture programme, which is funded by the charity with the assistance of sponsors and a practical workshop and demonstration programme. The 2023 Show was the Centenary Show, having started in 1923 and we were honoured with a visit from HRH the Princess Royal, who opened the Show and planted a Centenary Tree (False acacia). 

The Trustees have had regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit. This is delivered through the standards set in the Competitive Show to educate beekeepers and the public in the importance of honey and products of the hive; and through its Educational Programme of lectures and workshops in promoting good apicultural husbandry. 

The Trustees have also reviewed all the required policies relating to the risks associated with the show. 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Charitable activities** 

The 2024 National Honey Show (the 93[rd] show) was successfully staged at Sandown Park, Esher, Surrey with over 2,500 entries in this Show, up from 2.412 last year. Sixteen countries plus the UK took part in the competition. The workshop programme again proved very popular comprising over 30 workshops, mostly fully booked, over two and a half days. The 2024 main lectures were professionally videoed, financially assisted with the help of a grant of £2,500 from the CB Dennis Trust and a grant of £8,000 from the Worshipful Company of Wax Chandlers towards the cost of filming and editing. The lectures are available to view through our website on our YouTube Channel. This venture was again a great success and is a recognized source of high-quality information. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial position** 

Income is derived from individual and corporate membership fees, annual subscriptions supplemented by an appropriate sum from the Life Members Fund, admissions paid at the door, trade exhibitors' stand rental, google advertising on our YouTube channel, the sale of honey and other products of the hive from the Gift Classes, a tombola and donations to general funds. Above all, the Trustees are most grateful to the Worshipful Company of Wax Chandlers, the CB Dennis Trust, the Blaxland family and Grans on the Make for their generous sponsorship, and to all those who sponsor lectures and prize money. 

Income for the period amounted to £111,505 (2024: £112,903) and expenditure was £111,501 (2024: £116,686). In respect of its equity investments, the charity made unrealised gains in the period of £20,417 (2024: £4,195 losses). The overall gain for the period was therefore £20,421 (2024: £7,978 losses). 

The accumulated unrestricted funds on 31 January 2025 were £174,058 (2024: 157,613), of which £100,000 has been treated as designated funds, as noted below. The restricted funds stood at £81,072 (2024: £77,096). The total reserves as at the year-end were £255,130 (2024: £234,709).

**The National Honey Show Ltd Trustees Report 2025 For the period 1[st] February 2024 to 31[st] January 2025** 

The trustees' policy is to ensure there are sufficient reserves for the National Honey Show to continue for the next two years in the unlikely event that no income is generated. 

Whilst most reserves are held in listed unit trusts managed for charities, these can fall in value as well as rise in value. Likewise, the costs of hiring a suitable venue and providing and running a convention and lecture programme are increasing annually and future expenses and sponsorship are unpredictable. 

To achieve better rates of interest, all funds are held jointly, but the interest and dividends earned are apportioned pro-rata between the various funds in accordance with their respective balances at the start of the year. 

The trustees have reviewed the available resources and consider them adequate to fund activities for the foreseeable future and that the charity is a going concern. 

## **RESTRICTED FUNDS** 

- a) The Hamlin Memorial Fund is intended to be built up until the income is sufficient to pay the annual prize money, which objective has not been attained.  £42,926 (2024: £41,458) 

- b) A single expendable Prize Endowment Fund holds sufficient funds to contribute to the annual prize money of specific show classes for a period of 20 years. £8,145 (2024: £5,637) 

- c) The Challenge Cup Insurance Reserve is intended to meet the costs of maintenance, repair or replacement of the Show's cups and trophies. £30,000 (2024: £30,000) 

## **DESIGNATED FUNDS** 

During the period, the trustees again decided to designate some of the charity's unrestricted funds to various designated funds, as follows: 

- Freehold property repairs fund - the charity owns a garage that is shown in the accounts under freehold property. The garage has become run down and the trustees have been advised that it may need some remedial work and therefore a fund of £5,000 has been created for this purpose. 

- Show equipment replacement fund - the charity owns show equipment and stands that are used each year. This equipment is getting well worn. The trustees believe that £25,000 should be set aside to fund an investment in new equipment over the next few years. 

- Educational programme fund - the trustees wish to expand the current educational programme by producing videos and educational materials that will be used at the shows each year and be made available on YouTube. They believe that the videos will promote the annual shows and enhance the general public's knowledge and understanding of bees and beekeeping. £50,000 has been designated for these purposes. 

- 100th Show fund - the charity will have its 100th show in 2031 and the trustees are planning a spectacular show that year and therefore have decided to assign £20,000 to this fund. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Governing document** 

The National Honey Show is a charitable company limited by guarantee governed by The Memorandum and Articles of Association, first drafted in 1932, amended and lodged with Companies House and the Charities Commission in 2022. 

## **Recruitment and appointment of new trustees** 

The Articles state that there must be a minimum of three Trustees, who are appointed by the membership at the AGM. One third (or the number nearest to one third) of the Trustees must retire every year, those longest in office retiring first and the choice between any of equal service being made by drawing lots. A retiring Trustee may be reappointed.

**The National Honey Show Ltd Trustees Report 2025 For the period 1[st] February 2024 to 31[st] January 2025** 

## **Organisational structure** 

The National Honey Show is organised by a board of directors, who are also the trustees of the Charity and an Executive Committee, which has seven sub-committees. The smooth running of the Show depends upon the many volunteers - those who serve on the committees, the Judges and all those who perform a multitude of different tasks before, during and after the Show. 

The National Council, which meets annually and consists of delegates from many of the beekeeping counties of the British Isles and Eire, and the major beekeeping organisations, plays an important part in providing advice to the Trustees. 

The Annual General Meeting of the National Honey Show is open to all members and is held immediately before that of the National Council. 

Approved by order of the board of trustees on 21[st] July 2025 and signed on its behalf by: 

F.R. Matheson Trustee and General Secretary

## **Independent Examiner’s Report** 

The charity's trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Act”). 

The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Act and that an independent examination is needed. 

It is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under section 145 of the Charities Act, 

- to follow the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Act, and 

- to state whether particular matters have come to my attention 

My examination was carried out in accordance with general Directions given by the Charity Commission.  An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records.  It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and 

consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. 

In connection with my examination, no material matters have come to my attention which gives me cause to believe that in, any material respect: 

- accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act or 

- the accounts do not accord with the accounting records 

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

**The National Honey Show Ltd. (REGISTERED CHARITY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE)** 

## **Notes to the Accounts** 

**for the period ended 31[st] January 2025** 

## **1 . ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **Basis of preparing the finanial statements** 

The financial statements of the Charitable Company, which is a public entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities prearing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)'. Financial Reporting Standard 102 ' The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Repiblic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investments which are included at market value as modified by the revaluation of certain assets. 

The Charity is not part of any group and therefore these statements cover the reporting entity only. 

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£) 

## **Going concern** 

The Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity, established for more than a 100 years, will continue to operate for the foreseeable future; so these financial statements are prepared in the going concern basis. 

## **Legal status of the Charity** 

The charity is limited by guarantee and has no share capital. New Articles of Association were approved and adopted at the AGM on 27[th] October 2022 and replace both the Memorandum of Association and Articles of Association which previously prescribed regulations for the Charity. 

## **Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimating uncertainty** 

The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reprted for assets and liabilities as at the balance sheet date and the amounts reported for income and expenses during the year. However, the nature of estimation means that actual outcomes could differ from those estimates. In the Trustees' opinion, there are no significant judgements or key sources of estimation uncertainty 

## **Income** 

Income is recognised when the company becomes entitled to it, the Trustees are virtually certain they will receive it and the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability. Life Member's subscriptions are accounted for over a period of 16 years. The unexpired portion of Life Members' subscription is recognised in the period in which it relates. 

Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met 

Investment income is recorded when receivable. 

## **Expenditure and Liabilities** 

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 cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular hadins they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

## **Governance costs** 

Include costs of the preparation and examination of statutory accounts. Expenditure is recognised when incurred and includes VAT which cannot be recovered. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. 

Freehold property - nil from 1[st] June 2001 - Show equipment 25% on reducing balance - Challenge cups 10% on reducing balance 

## **Quoted Investments** 

Quoted investments are valued at market value at the balance sheet date. Unrealised and realised investment gains and losses are treated as unrestricted funds in the Statement of Financial Activities. 

## **Stocks** 

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance form for obsolete and slow moving items. 

## **Taxation** 

The Charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activitieis
