REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS
The directors, as trustees of the charity, present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2021.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
The constitution of the charity, being a limited company, is its Memorandum and Articles of Association. Its company number is 1082684 and its registered charity number is 265661. The company is limited by guarantee and has no share capital. The members of the company are prohibited from receiving any share of any surpluses the company may make, these being retained to further its charitable objectives.
The company is wholly dependent on voluntary labour to carry out its activities. It is run by a board of directors, who make decisions on strategy and finance. The directors meet on a regular, usually monthly basis. The day-to-day running of the operations is delegated to the charity’s Lifeboat Operations Manager and Responsible Person under the Rescue Boat Code of Practice (RBCoP), who consults with the lifeboat crew and discusses issues with the Chairman and trustees on a regular basis.
The company reviews the membership of its Board from time to time, and seeks out potential new directors, mainly from contacts made through the activities of the company and its directors. In view of the small size of the company, there is no formal procedure for training and induction of new board members.
DIRECTORS
The directors, being the trustees of the charity, who held office throughout the year, and who remain in office at the date of signing this report are as follows:
Mrs J B Motherwell Mr J Motherwell Mr S Emery Mr J Godwin Mr G Duke
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
The charity delivers its public benefit through its principal activity, which is to protect life and relieve suffering and distress amongst persons affected by illness, accidents or natural hazards in the inshore waters of Southampton Water, the Solent, and elsewhere.
The charity delivers this public benefit by operating two inshore rescue boats, which are of the Halmatic Pacific 32 RIB type, powered by Castoldi water jets. The most recent boat is “The John and Violet Hurrell” which was launched in February 2006, and the “Harry Childs” (named in memory of the late Harry Childs), launched in 1996. The use of Castoldi water jets does away with the need for propellers, which makes it ideal for use in rescue operations.

HAMBLE LIFEBOAT LIMITED
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS (continued)
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES - Continued
The charity also delivers its public benefit by operating a boathouse on the foreshore at Hamble, Hampshire, and this is staffed entirely by volunteers from the local community. The charity maintains these boats to a high standard and one is always moored ready in the water for a speedy response.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
The company attended a total of 122 (2020:102) incidents over the year, assisting approximately 124 people, of which 14 were deemed to be lives saved. This makes the service one of the busiest independent inshore rescue services in the country. The volunteer crew amassed 6,264 (2020: 5,999) hours during the year. During the Covid lockdowns, the Service continued to operate a full emergency response to H M Coastguard.
The charity continued to operate from its boatshed on the Hamble foreshore, which was completed in 2017.
Donation income maintained its level, being £24,130 for the year compared to £23,876 in 2020, but it has not returned to levels of the pre-Covid era. Other sources of income, such as fundraising and lotto income remained steady.
The Friends of Hamble Lotto continued to bring in a regular flow of funds, and raised an amount of £16,779 for the charity, compared to £16,473 in the previous year. Other fundraising events brought in £2,834 compared to £5,719. This drop was balanced by an increase in income from the sale of donated goods and merchandise.
An important part in being able to fulfil its public benefit remit in providing a life-saving service is to ensure that its boats and equipment are maintained to a high standard. This also applies to providing adequate training and protective gear for the crew. The charity spent invested in £8,286 of capital items in the year, less than in 2020 when the charity received an equipment grant of £33,968 from the Department of Transport.
Costs of running the rescue boats, with costs of fuel, repairs and pagers were £15,286 compared to £17,363 in the previous year. The reduction is due to there being slightly less spent on repairs. Insurances amounted to £8,583 compared to £8,382, and training costs were £2,273 compared to nil the previous year.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Results
The overall deficit for the year amounts to £26,002 (2020: surplus of £15,745) and is attributable as follows:
| 2021 | 2020 | |
|---|---|---|
| £ | £ | |
| Unrestricted funds: | ||

| ---------- | ---------- | |
| Overall (deficit)/surplus for the year | -£26,002 | £15,745 |
| ====== | ====== |
Total income amounted to £59,510 compared to £84,253 for the previous year. The overall level of donation income showed a modest increase from £23,876 to £24,130. The overall drop in total income is due to the receipt of a grant in 2020 from the Department of Transport of £33,968 used to finance specific items of equipment, and no such grant was received in 2021.
Operational costs of running the rescue service increased due to higher insurance costs, depreciation and training. This year the directors decided to revise downwards the useful lives and possible net realisable value of its two rescue craft, resulting in an increase in the depreciation charge of £16,524 over what it would have been previously. Overall costs incurred on charitable activities increased from £64,427 to £83,711.
Additions to equipment amounted to £9,286 for the year. This included a donation of navigational equipment which is included at a value of £6,175, being the equivalent cost to the charity had it bought the items new from its usual supplier.
Reserves policy statement
The charity has a policy of setting aside funds for designated projects, the sole designated fund at present being for the re-development of the boat house. Major donations (which are not by their nature, restricted funds) are set aside into a separate fund in order to pay for future construction costs.
In addition, many of the reserves held are restricted funds, as they are donations provided for the specific use of financing new rescue boats and equipment. These restricted funds have been utilised to pay for the costs of acquiring and constructing the rescue boats.

HAMBLE LIFEBOAT LIMITED
REPORT OF THE DIRECTORS (continued)
Reserves policy statement - continued
The directors consider that the charity always needs a general reserve of at least £30,000 in order to cover future operating costs, in view of the fact that all of the company’s income is of a voluntary and hence variable nature. Whilst the balance on the general undesignated reserve is less than this at the year-end, the charity has a designated fund that could be drawn upon in an emergency.
Risk assessment statement
The company faces a large number of risks from operating the rescue boats, principally in the field of health and safety matters. All crew are given training and essential protective clothing. The boats are maintained to a high standard. The charity has ensured that the rescue boats comply with the RBCoP and it continually reviews its procedures to ensure compliance with the new code, issued by the Maritime and Coastguard Agency.
In addition to its own operational procedures, the company mitigates the operational risk by having insurance cover. The charity has also taken out indemnity insurance for the directors.
The charity also faces the financial risk of having insufficient funds to carry out its operations, as all of its income is derived from voluntary sources. The charity tries to mitigate this risk by holding sufficient funds to meet the operating costs of the charity for at least a year. It also benefits from the proceeds of The Friends of Hamble Lotto, which generates a regular monthly income.
PLANS FOR THE FUTURE
The charity will continue to maintain to a high standard its existing rescue boats in order to provide an effective inshore rescue service. The new equipment which has been acquired over the last couple of years largely by grants from the Department for Transport has ensured that it is well equipped to deal with its rescue role in the future.
The charity will continue to put funds aside where it can in order to build up a fund for the eventual replacement of its oldest rescue boat.
TANGIBLE FIXED ASSETS
In the opinion of the directors, the cost of replacing two new lifeboats, complete with their rescue equipment is approximately £650,000.
PUBLIC BENEFIT STATEMENT
In accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 and the associated Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008, the directors confirm that they have complied with their duties to have due regard to the guidance on public benefit as published by the Charity Commission, in exercising their powers and duties in the year under review.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
HAMBLE LIFEBOAT LIMITED
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of accounting
The company uses the historical cost basis of accounting, and the financial statements are drawn up in accordance with the requirements of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities (SORP) 2015 second edition, as issued by the Charity Commission.
The company has taken advantage of the exemption available as a small charity and not prepared a cash flow statement.
Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets are stated in the balance sheet at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided to write off the cost, less anticipated residual value of these assets over their estimated useful lives in equal annual instalments at the following rates:
| % | |
|---|---|
| Boathouse premises at Hamble | 2.00 |
| Rescue boats | 10.00 or 20.00 |
| Engines | 10.00 |
| Radios | 20.00 |
| Miscellaneous equipment | 12.50 |
No depreciation has been provided on rescue boats until the current year on the basis that due to the value of work done on the boats by voluntary labour, the net realisable value of the rescue boats was greater than their historical cost. However, with the increasing age of the craft the directors now consider that this assumption is no longer appropriate. They have revised the estimated useful lives of the two craft to between five to ten years and depreciation has been provided for 2021. The amount of the depreciation charged to the income and expenditure account in respect of the rescue craft is £16,524.
In accordance with the requirements of the Charity SORP and the accounting and reporting standard FRS 102, upon which the SORP is based, the additional depreciation has been treated as a change in an accounting estimate, and the 2020 figures have not been restated to reflect the new depreciation rates.
Costs incurred on major refits are added to the cost of the rescue boats, and any original expenditure on items that are replaced as part of the refit is written off in the year of refit. Costs of any very significant engine repairs are also capitalised and written off over the remaining life of the engine.
Costs of a capital nature incurred on the new boat house are included in fixed assets. Depreciation has been provided each year since 2016 when the boathouse was brought into use.

1.ACCOUNTING POLICIES – continued
Income
Income represents grants receivable, plus donations and other funds raised. Donations and legacy income only are included when the charity has been notified by the donor of the forthcoming grant or donation. In most instances therefore, grants and donations are included on a received basis.
All grants and donations are treated as income in the income and expenditure account and are treated as restricted funds where the donor specifies the purpose to which the donation is to be put. Donations in kind are not accounted for unless their value can be determined with a high degree of certainty.
Income and expenditure account
The balance on the income and expenditure account is split between restricted funds, and unrestricted funds. Unrestricted funds (or general reserves) are split into a capital fund, being funds that have been invested in boats, equipment and other fixed assets, to the extent that they are not otherwise funded by restricted funds, a capital assets replacement fund and the general fund, which the directors are free to utilise to further the charity’s objectives.
Restricted funds
The company accounts for two restricted funds. Firstly, a fund has arisen from donations received specifically for the purchase and fitting out of particular rescue boats, these being in 2000 for the “Harry Childs”, and in 2004 the “John and Violet Hurrell”. This fund also includes grants received to purchase specific pieces of equipment. Depreciation is allocated against the individual donations contained in the fund as the boats and equipment to which they relate are depreciated in accordance with the policy referred to above.
A second restricted fund has arisen in respect of grants and donations specifically made towards the new boathouse. These funds are utilised against depreciation provided each year on the building.
Donated goods
Where goods (such as second-hand books) are donated to the charity for subsequent sale, they are only recorded in the financial statements at their value when sold. The directors consider it impractical to value any such goods in stock at the year-end. Where goods and services are paid for directly by a third part as a donation to the charity, the donation is included at its fair value in income and expenditure where it is practical to do so. The value of volunteer time is not accounted for.
Cost of charitable activities
These comprise costs directly involved in running the rescue boats, including fuel, repairs, servicing, protective clothing, pagers and depreciation of the engines and equipment. It also includes the costs of running the boathouse, including light, heat, repairs and rates, and support costs. The latter are telephone, office and other administration costs. In view of the small scale of the charity, these support costs have not been allocated between cost of charitable activities and governance costs.

The capital asset replacement fund is to set aside reserves to enable funding of major capital assets including eventually a replacement lifeboat. A transfer has been made to this fund of £17,006 in the year in order to maintain its parity with the bank account used for this purpose.
The boarding tender renovation fund comprises a £1,000 donation which was originally given to the charity to assist in the purchasing of a new boarding tender. Following the death of the original donor, approval has been given from her representative that the donation can be used instead for more general use, and the directors have agreed to treat this as a designated fund to be used to fund future repairs to the present tender.
