Public benefit The Trustees have recognised the two principles of public benefit and consider that the Charity meets them, namely. That there must be an identifiable benefit or benefits and they must be clear, related to the aims of the Charity and must be balanced against any detriment or harm. The objects of the Charity are, as stated earlier in this report, to conserve and exhibit the Mary Rose, together with the educational and research facilities, "all for the benefit of the Nation." The Mary Rose and her associated artefacts glve a unique insSght Into the life of ordinary people in Tudor times and, as a result, are of benefit for academic study and casual visitor alike. That ihe benefit must be to the public or to a Section of the public,. that the beneficiaries must be appropriate to the aims and, if to a section of the public, must not be unreasonably restricted and that those from disadvantaged backgrounds must not be excluded from the opportunity to benefit. The Mary Rose Trust {A company Ilmlted by guaranteel Report of the Trustees Ilncorporatln8 the Dlrectors, report) for the year ended 31 March 2025 The potential beneficiaries of the Charity are very wide and include not only the paying visitors to Mary Rose, but also schools and other groups who visit. The Trust also enables people with speclal needs to undertake supported volunteerin8 in the Museum to extend reach further.

Making available to everyone a heritage attraction of national and Snternatlonal slgnSfScance Advancing learning, through the delivery of guided museum visits and workshops and the programme of outreach to schools across the UK BeSng the lead museum in the UX for maritime archaeology and a key resource for research. The Trustees have taken accovnt of the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the CharitWs aims and objectives and in planning future activitSes. Strate icRe ort Achlevements and performance During the financial year, the Mary Rose Trust undertook a strategSc revlew In response to lower-than- antlcipated vlsitor income and fundraising performance. Income levels fell short of both budgeted expectations and 2023124 figures. In parallel with these income challenges, the Trust continued to face slgnificant cost pressures, particularly in relation to wage Inflation, rent, and energy costs. These pressures necessitated a comprehensive organisatlonal restructure, whlch Commenced in November 2024. This process resulted in the removal of seven roles, including six redundancies, voluntary reductions in worklng hours by flve staff members, and the implementation of a new Buslness Unlt Structure designed to Improve efficiency and accountability. Despite these challenges, the Trust's partnership within the Portsmouth Historic Dockyard Operations Joint Venture, In collaboration with the National Museum of the Royal Navy INMRNI. continues to thrive. The joint venture has delivered increased visitation and remaSns a recognSsed success withln the sector. For the fourth consecutive year, Portsmouth Historic Dockyard was featured in theTop 40 attractionsin the ALVA (Association of Leading Visitor Attractions) report and retained ils posStion among the Top 5 m05t visited paid- for attractlons outslde London, despite a year-on-year decllne In visitor numbers.

Embed Environmental Sustainabllity into everything we do- How will we knowP We have an environment sustainability plan for the Mary Rose Trust- this will be initiated by progressing the environmental feasibility studies while workin8 in line with Porlsmouth Naval Base 2030 strategy. The Mary Rose Trust has embarked on a major long-term initiative to deliver an environmentally sustainable museum. Thls marks the culminatlon of several years of dedlcated work by the team, supported by multiple funding streams, which have enabled the Trust to significantly leduce energy consumption and begin implementing energy-saving measures. To build on this progress, a three-phase sustainability project has been developed. The first phase focuses on the installation of solar folls on the museum roof. Thls Ss projected to generate annual savings of approximately £50,000, depending on prevailing energy rates, and will provide around 18% of the museum's tot81 electricity usage. In addition to the environmenlal benefits, this phase will support the continued development of the Trust's sustainability strategy and partially fund the staffing required to deliver it. An application for funding ihis phase has been submitted to the Garfield Weston Foundation, wlth a deelslon expected by the end of March 2025. Slnce 2018, the Trust has achleved a 40% ieductlon In electrlclty usage, equlvalent to approxlmately 636,000 kwh. At the current energy rate of 23p per kwh, this represents an annual saving of over £146,000. These savings have been reallsed through a combination of operational changes, including adjustment5 to fan speed5 and operating hours, as well a5 Ihe installation of energy-efficient LED lighiing. KBS Maritime, which manages dockyard Infrastructure on behalf of the Mlnistry of Defence, has negotlated a fixed electricity rate of 23p per kwh for a six-month period beginning in December 2024. The Trust is hopeful that this late wlll be malntained or improved upon beyond this Inillal term.

Risk assessments are conducted by the ExecutSve Team using standard parameters of Ilkelihood and impact, resulting in an overall risk score. Risks are categorised under the headings of Governance, Operational, and Financial. For each identified risk, control measures have been implemented to mltigate exposure to acceptable levels. Risks with slgnificant residual scores above a defined threshold are escalated to a top-level risk register, which is regularly reviewed and monitored by senior managemer)t and Trustees. Key Rlsks for the Reporting Period The most significant risk5 identified for the forthcoming period relate to financlal sustainabilitvi and are summarised as follows: Rising Energy Costs The rlsk of unsustainable inciea5es in energy costs could affect the Trust's abilityto maintain collection care and overall museum viability. Mitigation measures include a comprehensive review of energy usage, implementation of energy-5aving initiatives, and ongoing exploralion of alternatlve energy sources. The Trust is also acllvely collaborating with other heritage institutions to share best practices. In recognition of its importance, Environmental Sustainability has been formally adopted as a Kev Strategic Objective and a 3-phase plan has been developed. Inflationary Pressures The rising cost base, which cannot be fully passed on to visitor5, presents a risk to financial stability. In response, the Trust has introduced Quarterly Budget Reviews and continues to strengthen procurement procedures to manage costs effectively. The Strategic revlew and recent restiuctuiing should assist with this.

Conclusions related to going eoncern In auditing the linancial 5tatement5, we have concluded that the tru51ees' use of the golng concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the fSnancial statements is appiopriale. Based on the work we have performed, we have not idenlified any material uncerlalntie5 relating to events or condition5 that, individually or collectively, may cast Slgnificant doubt on the group's or parent charitable company's ability to conllnue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months ffom when the linancial statements are authorised for Issue.

If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other informatlon. we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companles Act 2006 In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit: the information given in the trustees, report lincorporatlng the strategic report and the directors, report) for the financial year for which the financlal statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements,. and the strJtegic report and the directors, report have been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements. Matters on which we are required to report by exception In the light of our knowledge and understanding of the group and parent charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the strategic report and the directors, report. We have nothing to report In respect of the following matters In relation to which the Companles Acl 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: adequate accounting records have not been kept by the parent charitable company, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us,. or the parent charitable company'5 financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns,. or certain disclosures of directors, remuneration specified by law are not made; or we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. Responsibilities of trustees As explained more fully in the tiustees, re5ponsibilltles statement set out on page 15, the trustees (who are also the directors of the parent tharitable company for the purposes of company lawl 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 contiol as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparlng the flnancial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the group's and parent charitable company's ability to continue as a goin8 concern, disclosin8, as applicable, matters related to going concern and uslng the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidale the group or the parent charitable comp.any or to cease operations. or have no realistic alternative but to do so. Audltorfs responsibilities for the audlt of the financial statements We have been appolnted as auditor under the Companles Act 2006 and report in accordance with this Act. Our oblectlves 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 an auditorfs report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISA5 IUKI 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 economlc decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. 17 The Mary Rose Trust IA company limited by guarantee) Irregularities, Including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We deslgn procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, Including fraud. The extent to which our procedures ale capable of detecting irregulaiities, includSng fraud is detailed below: We gained an understandlng of the legal and regulatory framework applicable to the company and the sector in which it operates through discussions with management, sector research, and the application of relevant audit knowledge and experience We made enquiries of management around actual and potential litigation and claims We made enquirles of management and relevant staff, and designed our audit procedures, including reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing of supporting documentation, to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations. We focussed on laws and regulations which could give rise to materlal misstatement in the financial statements includin& but not limited to, the Companies Act 2006, the Charities Act 2011, the Charities SORP, and the Financial Reporting Standard 102 We identified the risk of materlal misstatement of the financial statement5 due to fraud and designed audit procedures to respond to the risk. We performed audlt procedure5 designed to addie55 the risk of fraud arising from management override of controls, includingi but not limited to, testing of journal entrles and other adjustments, reviewing accounting estimates for evidence of bias, and evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business. Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all Srregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the accounts or non-compliance with regulation. This risk Increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected In the accounts, as we will be less likely to become aware of instance5 of non-compliance. The risk 15 also greater regarding irregularities occurring due to fraud rather than error, as fraud Involves intentional concealment, forgery, collusion, omission or misrepresentation. A further description of our responsibilities for the audSt of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at.. www.frc.org.uk/auditorsre5ponsibililies. This description forms part of our auditor's report.

Our audit work has been undertaken so that we mlght state to the cliaritable company's members and its trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditorfs report and for no other purpose.
