## **Carew Pole Garden Trust** 

## **Registered Charity number 268964** 

## **Trustees’ Report** 

## **Year ended 31 March 2021** 

The Trustees present their Annual Report and the financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2021. They are satisfied that the financial statements comply with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011, the Trust Deed and the recommendations of the 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) - (charities - SORP 2019 – (FRS102)). 

## **Objectives and Activities** 

In planning our activity for the year, we kept in mind the Charity Commission guidance on public benefit. The trust gardens are gardens for the enjoyment of the public and for the purpose of research, with a view to the furtherance of the study and science of botany and the increase of knowledge in respect thereof and the improvement of the methods and practice of horticulture. The Antony Woodland Gardens are open for public viewing for 8 months of the year and house the National Plant Collection for Camellia Japonica. 

## **Achievements and Performance** 

During the year ended 31 March 2021 the trustees paid £81,342 towards the upkeep of the gardens, which are open for public viewing for 8 months of the year. 

The charity incurred investment management fees of £5,251, property expenses of £5,687, advertising and marketing costs of £1,118 and other costs of £21,953. 

## **Financial Review** 

The trustees’ investment property and quoted investments are held with a view to producing income for maintenance of the gardens, with the exception of one cottage which is occupied by a garden employee. The quoted investments are shown at current market value whereas the investment property is professionally valued periodically. 

During the year, the charity received income of £5,822 from its portfolio of stock market investments, £74,091 from its investment properties, £5,167 from admission fees and made a net loss of £1,224 from the Broomhill Cottage Tea Rooms & Gift shop. 

There was an overall surplus of £95,096 for the year to 31 March 2021 (2020: deficit £21,912). This includes £110,571 profit on sales, foreign currency holdings and the revaluation of financial investments (2020: profit £4,441).

## **Registered Charity number 268964** 

## **Trustees’ Report (Continued)** 

## **Year ended 31 March 2021** 

## **Reserves Policy** 

The trustees continually monitor the level of unrestricted income funds. The charity had unrestricted funds of £1,809,572 at 31 March 2021. The breakdown of net assets between funds is shown in note 11. Net Assets at 31 March 2021 included an aggregate £1,864,042 in respect of quoted investments, investment property, heritage assets and tangible fixed assets which the trustees intend to maintain in order to generate income for distribution to future beneficiaries. The charity has net current liabilities of £14,482 (2020: net current liabilities of £20,409). 

The trustees are satisfied that this level of free reserves is sufficient because the income generated from investments is more than adequate to cover the charity’s administrative expenses, which are minimal and predictable in nature. The net expenditure position last year was largely due to the high one-off costs of woodland maintenance and tree thinning identified in note 15 to the accounts.

## **Registered Charity number 268964** 

## **Trustees’ Report (Continued)** 

## **Year ended 31 March 2021** 

## **Structure, Governance and Management** 

The Charity was created by the late Sir John Carew Pole Bt under a Deed of Trust dated 1 January 1975 to apply funds for the purpose of maintaining the gardens adjacent to Antony House, Torpoint, Cornwall. The Trustees have since acquired other parcels of land which also form part of the trust gardens. 

The Trustees who have served during the year and since the year end are set out on below. The power of appointing new trustees is vested in the Management Committee, who meet once a year. The Trustees, who must act on the direction of the Management Committee, have wide powers to apply both income and capital in furtherance of the Charity’s objectives and wide powers of investment. 

Any new trustees would be given an introduction to the Charity and would be given sufficient training to ensure that they are properly able to fulfil their responsibilities.

## **Trustees’ Responsibilities in Relation to the Financial Statements** 

The charity trustees are responsible for preparing a Trustees’ Annual Report and financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the charity trustees to prepare financial statements for each year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period. In preparing the financial statements the trustees are required to: 

a) select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

b) observe the methods and principles in the applicable Charities SORP; 

c) make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

d) state whether applicable UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

e) prepare the financial statements on the going basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation. 

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the applicable Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations, and the provisions of the Trust Deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

## **Declaration** 

We approve the attached accounts set out on pages 6 to 18 for the year ended 31 March 2021 and confirm that we have made available all the relevant records and information required for their preparation.

## **Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees** 

## **Year ended 31 March 2021** 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Carew Pole Garden Trust ('the Trust') for the year ended 31 March 2021 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’). 

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act. 

## **Independent examiner’s statement** 

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

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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. 

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.

## **Carew Pole Garden Trust** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements** 

## **Year ended 31 March 2021** 

## **1 General Information** 

Carew Pole Garden Trust is an unincorporated charitable trust registered as a charity in England and Wales. Details of the charity, including the Principal Address, are included in Reference and Administrative details in the Trustees' Report. 

## **2 Accounting Policies** 

## **Year end date** 

Although nominally described as 31 March 2021, these financial statements have been prepared with an effective cut-off date of 5 April 2021 to coincide with the stock broker tax year end packs. 

## **Basis of preparation** 

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, as modified by the revaluation of investments. 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011. 

The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair view'. The departure has involved following Accounting and Reporting applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has been withdrawn. 

The trustees have assessed the charity's activities with regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit.  The Carew Pole Garden Trust meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. 

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis and the Trustees are not aware of any material uncertainties that would cast doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. 

The presentational currency of the Carew Pole Garden Trust is considered to be Pounds Sterling as that is the currency of the primary economic environmental in which the trust operates. 

## **Heritage Assets** 

The charity holds heritage assets, which are tangible fixed assets of historical, artistic or scientific importance that are held to advance preservation and conservation objectives of the charity. Newly purchased heritage assets are capitalised and included at cost including any incidental expenses of acquisition. 

Heritage property is revalued periodically and is included at the latest valuation. 

Heritage sculptures are carried at cost less impairment. 

The Green Man sculpture is of artistic importance. The carrying value represents the initial value of the asset when originally purchased by the Trust. The trustees consider there has been no impairment of the asset. 

The very long expected lives of heritage assets, due to their nature, value and need to be protected and preserved means that depreciation is not material and is, therefore, not provided.

## **Carew Pole Garden Trust** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)** 

## **Year ended 31 March 2021** 

## **2 Accounting Policies (continued)** 

## **Heritage Assets (continued)** 

The value of the heritage assets does not include the gifts made by Sir Richard and Lady Mary Carew Pole on 8 September 2005. They both gifted their half share in a sculpture known as the “Wrapt”. Sir Richard also gifted three pieces of Delabole slate and Standing Stone all inscribed by Tom Perkins. 

## **Tangible Assets (other than Heritage Assets)** 

Other tangible assets comprise equipment which is intended for ongoing use either in pursuit of the charity's objects or in the management and administration of the charity. 

Equipment is initially stated at cost. Depreciation is provided on equipment at 25% on a reducing balance basis, based on the estimated useful life. 

## **Investment Property** 

Investment property is revalued periodically and is included at the latest valuation – March 2016. 

## **Unrestricted Funds** 

Unrestricted funds are donations and other incoming resources receivable or generated for the objects of the charity without further specified purpose and are available as general funds. 

## **Restricted Funds** 

Restricted funds are donations and other incoming resources which were received for a specific purpose and are not available as general funds. 

## **Income** 

## Investment Income 

Income from quoted securities and bank deposits is accounted for in the period in which the Charity is entitled to receipt. 

## Donations and Grants 

Grant income is recognised in the financial statements when the qualifying conditions for the grant have been satisfied and there is reasonable certainty that the funding will be received. 

Income from donations is recognised on receipt. 

Grants and donations received for specific purposes are identified as restricted fund income. Other grants and donations are identified as unrestricted funds. 

## Income from Property 

Property income is accounted for on an accruals basis. 

## Other Income 

Other income and Broomhill Shop income is accounted for when the Charity is entitled to the income, which by the nature of the items is when cash is received. Gardening work income is recognised when the work is completed. 

## **Expenditure** 

Expenditure is included on an accruals basis and is recognised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation to pay the expenditure. Direct charitable expenditure includes all expenditure directly related to the objects of the Charity and represents the costs associated with the upkeep of the gardens. Property costs and investment management fees are directly related to those sources of income. Other costs are the costs of running the Charity itself as an organisation.

## **Notes to the Financial Statements (continued)** 

## **Year ended 31 March 2021** 

## **2 Accounting Policies (continued)** 

## **Broomhill Cottage Tea Room and Gift Shop** 

Carew Pole Garden Trusts share of the joint venture loss is shown in note 13. 

Revenue is generated from the sale of food, drink and gifts and is recognised within income in the Statement of Financial Activities on a receipts basis, net of the following costs. 

Direct costs incurred in the upkeep and use of the building such as repairs and utilities are paid in full by Carew Pole Garden Trust. These costs are included within note 13 on an accruals basis and are recognised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation to pay the expenditure. 

The Shop is operated by a third party who is entitled to a fixed profit share which is calculated as monthly sales less direct costs associated with the running of the shop (i.e utility bills). This is recognised on an accruals basis and included within note 13 as Broomhill Tea Room Operation. 

## **Investments** 

Investments are carried at market value. Gains or losses on disposals and on annual revaluation of investments are credited or charged in the Statement of Financial Activities. 

## **Financial Instruments** 

The Trust only has financial assets of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments i.e. cash, investments, short-term debtors and creditors, which are initially recorded at transaction value. Investments are revalued at market value through the Statement of Financial Activities. Details of the financial instruments can be found in notes 5, 7, 8, 9, and 10. 

## **Covid-19** 

The Trustees have considered the impact of Covid-19. In their opinion, the trust has sufficient working capital within existing facilities to continue to trade for the foreseeable future, and therefore the accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis.
