INSTITUTE OF CAST METALS ENGINEERS
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES (INCORPORATING THE DIRECTORS REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2020
The Trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report in accordance with the small company regime, Section 419(2) of the Companies Act 2006, with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31st December 2020. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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) (effective 1 January 2015).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
The objectives of the charity are to:-
-Stimulate science and technology in the cast metals and allied industries.
-Promote learning and education in the cast metals and allied industries.
-Confer professional qualifications up to the level of Chartered Engineer through its Membership Committee.
The charity is registered with the Engineering Council to achieve these objectives. It also promotes lectures and seminars and assists with the technical content for technical journals.
During 2020 the Institute of Cast Metal Engineers has achieved its goal of becoming a recognised End Point Assessment Organisation (EPAO) for the level 3 apprenticeship standard ST0566. This will enable the ICME quality team to end point assess apprentices who have been trained in the standard for Casting, Foundry and Patternmaking.
At the beginning of 2020 some branches were fortunate to be able to host their annual dinners and host some technical and social events. As the worldwide pandemic forced the UK into lockdown, all branch and national events unfortunately were cancelled. Some regional branches have continued to offer a wide range of technical webinars, enabling members, and those from the wider industry, to meet (albeit virtually) and network with like-minded people. Gratitude is expressed to all those that have hosted and continue to host and organise social and technical events on behalf of the Institute after what has been a very difficult year for our country.
The Foundry Trade Journal is a publication that is provided to members as part of their subscription.
Public benefit
In shaping our objectives for the year and planning our activities, the trustees have considered the Charity Commissions guidance on public benefit, in particular, the trustees consider how specific projects will contribute to their objectives.
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities
The Institute of Cast Metal Engineers has continued to focus on preparing to be one of the lead providers of End Point Assessments for the foundry, casting and patternmaking industries apprenticeship programme.
The Investment/Finance & General Purpose committee continues to support and signpost training requirements in the sector. Furthermore, the regional branches have held various technical webinars throughout the year enabling the Institute to continue to bring its members together during these challenging times.
Membership Promotion and Apprentices
As part of its commitment to support young apprentices, Technicians and their companies, ICME continues to offer free membership to apprentices. 21 new members were recruited to ICME in 2020.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Accounts and financial position
The attached financial statements comply with current statutory requirements, the charity's governing document, and the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in February 2016), (THE SORP).
The Statement of Financial Activities summarises the income sources and main areas of expenditure. Opportunities to control costs and raise income are actively sought by Investment/Finance and General Purposes committee. The council continues to investigate opportunities to work with other like-minded organisations to ensure that the Institute continues to meet its aims and objectives for the benefit of the castings industry.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES (INCORPORATING THE DIRECTORS REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31ST DECEMBER 2020
Principal funding sources
The investment powers are unrestricted but are managed under the advice of an Investment Advisory Committee reporting to the Council. Baillie Gifford & Co. is employed as the investment adviser. Capital withdrawals are made to either acquire or to give additional support in times of financial uncertainty.
The Institute's principal source of funding is now membership subscriptions (£63K) for the year to the 31st December 2020. There was also income of £14K from investment returns, but training is now delivered by an independent training company and this direct income has ceased.
Investment policy and objectives
The investment policy has been to continue to invest in any stocks and bonds considered by the investment managers to form a sound basis for stable long term growth and reasonable income. The overall purpose of the investment is to facilitate additional income resources for the Charity. The target for the split of the current holding remains at 10% invested in bonds and 90% invested in equities and at the year end this was 14% and 86% respectively.
Reserves policy
The Charity holds reserves to support the long term learning and educational needs of the sector and will continue to hold these reserves to allow it to generate income to meet these objectives. The Trustees estimate 6 months expenditure, being £110K at 31[st] December 2020 would be sufficient reserves held. This policy is reviewed each year by the Trustees.
At the year end the charity held unrestricted reserves totalling £662,285 (2019:£753,107). The trustees consider the level of reserves currently held to be of a sufficient level to support the charity moving forward.
FUTURE PLANS
The aim of the Institute is to continue to support and develop educational opportunities for those in the industry. The industry continues to have a particular need for training and education provision for new apprentices and graduates entering this sector. Work also continues on providing an End Point Assessment platform for apprentices completing their courses and a submission will be made early in 2021 for this.
It is recognised that the Institute’s finances are underpinned by the Investment portfolio and, with limited direct sources of income available, a project is underway to see how the Institute can be re-shaped to ensure future financial viability.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
The Charity is an Institute incorporated by Royal Charter, without share capital. It operates under the name of Institute of Cast Metals Engineers and constitutes a limited company which is limited by Guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.

STATEMENT OF DIRECTOR'S RESPONSIBILITIES
The Trustees, who are also directors of The Institute of Cast Metals Engineers for the purposes of company law, are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations.
Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the trustees have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP 2019 (FRS 102)
-
make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charitable company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
STATEMENT AS TO DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION TO AUDITORS
So far as the trustees are aware, there is no relevant audit information (as defined by Section 418 of the Companies Act 2006) of which the company's auditors are unaware, and each trustee has taken all the steps that ought to have taken as trustees in order to make aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the company's auditors are aware of that information.
AUDITORS
The auditors, Fields, will be proposed for re-appointment at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting.
This report has been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006 relating to small companies.
ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD:
Trustee: Trevor Stevenson

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF INSTITUTE OF CAST METALS ENGINEERS
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Institute of Cast Metals Engineers (the 'charitable company') for the year ended 31st December 2020 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, Balance Sheet, Statement of Changes in Equity and Notes to the Financial Statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
-
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charitable company's affairs as at 31st December 2020 and of its loss for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the ISAs (UK) require us to report to you where:
- the trustees use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is not appropriate; or - the trustees have not disclosed in the financial statements any identified material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the company's ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting for a period of at least twelve months from the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Other information
The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information in the Report of the Directors, but does not include the financial statements and our Report of the Auditors thereon.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Opinion on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006
In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:
-
the information given in the Report of the Trustees for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and
-
the Report of the Trustees has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.
Page 5
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE MEMBERS OF INSTITUTE OF CAST METALS ENGINEERS
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Report of the Trustees.
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
certain disclosures of director's remuneration specified by law are not made; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit; or
-
the trustees were not entitled to prepare the financial statements in accordance with the small companies regime and take advantage of the small companies' exemption from the requirement to prepare a Strategic Report or in preparing the Report of the Trustees.
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees Responsibilities set out on pages two to four, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors 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 (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members those matters we are required to state to them in a Report of the Independent Auditors and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charitable company and the charitable company's members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
