The Avon Centre Limited
Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 30 June 2023
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 year ended 30 June 2023. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accoun@ng and Repor@ng by Chari@es: Statement of Recommended Prac@ce applicable to chari@es preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Repor@ng Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effec@ve 1 January 2019).
CHANGE OF NAME
The charity changed its Name from "Avon Riding Centre for the Disabled" to "The Avon Centre" on 28th June 2021.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objec&ves and aims
The charitable objects for which The Avon Centre is established are for "To advance the educa@on, health, wellbeing and rehabilita@on of the general public, in par@cular people with physical, mental and emo@onal disabili@es through the provision of horse related and nature programmes for the community of Bristol and the surrounding area."
The Charity provides equine based therapeu@c and sport ac@vi@es for people with any form of disability in one of the UK's largest purpose build equestrian centres. The centre is located in North Bristol surrounded by circa 100 acres of fields and woodland, in a seXng that aims to promote individual development, skills and confidence in a safe, friendly and aZrac@ve environment.
ac@vi@es.
The trustees believe that the centre, its facili@es and the estate upon which it operates are maintained in a way that encourages and assists individuals in a func@onal and engaging seXng, with horses that are carefully chosen and trained to support the needs of the charity's beneficiaries.
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Ac&vi&es and Performance
might have seemed a long @me ago, some financial and opera@onal effects of the pandemic remained. Staffing levels had been reduced to a minimum and the equine herd, by necessity, had to be depleted. The consequence was reduced capacity to benefit service users and generate income. Avon has made steady progressions to resolve this, with gradual increases in staff, as well as horse numbers.
The Charity has further progressed its non- ridden ac@vi@es, which has even greater poten@al to expand. This diversifica@on relieves pressure on the ridden herd and facilitates therapeu@c benefits to a wider community.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE (Con3nued)
The nature and purpose of sessions can vary depending on individual circumstances; from encouraging someone with Au9sm and sensory issues to touch and brush a pony, through to using the ponies’ reac9ons to help someone with extreme anxiety to monitor and control their levels of anxiety and emo9onal responses. "Walk and talk" ac9vi9es are also available in the woodland with experienced staff. Touching and brushing ponies etc can also help the elderly and those suffering from demen9a..
Partnerships
The Charity is con9nuing to develop strategic partnerships with third par9es to provide an even more diverse equine related and nature based offering to the local community in line with the vision for the Centre. This already includes hos9ng schools and other chari9es (such as those suppor9ng neurodiversity groups) for ac9vi9es on-site.
(beyond the year to June 2023), for example with disability/employment support and assistance dog chari9es. Leading equine organisa9ons, with whom the Charity is affiliated, hold regional training sessions at the Centre.
A new Forest School area has been prepared, and this also allows for a variety of other ac9vi9es such as teaching sessions and wellbeing groups, in a natural, therapeu9c environment.
Fundraising
During Covid, the charity undertook a crowdfunding campaign which raised approximately £80,000 of unrestricted income for the Charity. These funds have provided financial stability for the Charity to carefully plan and invest in its core opera9ons.
Another key income stream for the charity is its trading subsidiary, Bristol Horse Riding (BHR), which provides equine related services including riding lessons, and schooling. This ac9vity was also significantly impacted by Covid and the lockdowns, although some riding was able to resume between lockdowns. Post-Covid, BHR's ac9vity level has increased, which benefits the charity both financially and in opera9onal terms.
Towards the close of the year ending 30[th] June 2023, the trustees started to develop an improved fundraising strategy. Part of this u9lised the carefully-iden9fied abili9es of staff team numbers, trustees and volunteers, with the aim to add new third-party (freelance) fundraising capacity. AZer this period, this approach is coming to frui9on.
We are so fortunate to be supported by a wide range of individuals, business and other organisa9ons who donate, hold fundraising ac9vi9es or provide resources for Avon. They are part of our community, and an essen9al part of con9nuing the charity’s work.

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial posi&on
to the land and buildings (£407,401) and horses (£26,206). The remaining tangible fixed assets include the equipment necessary to run the charity, maintain the property and provide lessons.
The charity held cash of £103,238 (2022 - £135,233) with net current assets of £93,772 (2022 - £119,961)
Reserves policy
opera@ng costs of the centre for a period of at least six months. The trustees are con@nually monitoring the posi@on and ways of developing addi@onal income streams to rebuild its reserves posi@on.
The total value of reserves at the balance sheet date is £639,838 (2022 - £625,612). Of this total, £6,959 (2022 - £39,165) is held as restricted funds.
FUTURE PLANS
benefit to its user and the wider community. This includes:
-
riders. Expanding the rider group is a gradual process, as horses and lessons must be carefully matched to a rider's needs.
-
iden@fied groups who would benefit, including school and charity groups as well as individuals.
-
Gradually developing a range of ac@vi@es on-site that support our target groups as well as the wider community. This could be further ridden or non-ridden ac@vi@es, horse simulator sessions, facility hire, compe@@ons, forest school or seasonal events. These work symbio@cally with our ac@vi@es in points 1 and 2, and the Centre relies on these to be sustainable.
-
Developing the use of our site for the best use of those in need, and the community. This is a long-term plan, but this is already progressing, with partner groups and chari@es having greater involvement. Longer term plans aim to u@lise the site to its full poten@al. This requires thorough planning, as each group has specific needs, that must work well together.

The Avon Centre Limited INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The Avon Centre Limited ('the Company')
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Compnay for the period ended 30 June 2023.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the trustees of the charity (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act).
Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the charity are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
Independent examiner's statement
Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales (ICAEW), which is one of the listed bodies.
I have completed my examination. I can confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that:
-
accounting records were not kept in accordance with section 386 of the 2006 Act ; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
• the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements under section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or
• the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102).
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.

For Year Ending 30 June 2023
1 Accounting policies
Basis of preparation
These financial statements have been prepared in compliance with FRS 102, 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland', 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 (FRS 102)) and the Charities Act 2011.
The Avon Riding Centre meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.
The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, as modified by the revaluation of certain financial assets and liabilities and investment properties measured at fair value through income or expenditure.
The financial statements for the reporting period to 30 June 2022 were restated to correct the income analysis on the statement of financial activities.
Going Concern
There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue.
Judgements and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty
The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported. These estimates and judgements are continually reviewed and are based on experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances.
Change in basis of accounting or to previous accounts
There has been no change to the accounting policies (valuation rules and method of accounting) since last year and no changes have been made to accounts for previous years.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity.
Restricted funds are subjected to restrictions on their expenditure imposed by the donor or through the terms of an appeal.
Incoming Resources
All Incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SoFA) when:
-
the charity becomes entitled to the resources;
-
it is more likely than not that the trustees will receive the resources;
-
the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.
There has been no offsetting of assets and liabilities, or income and expenses, unless required or permitted by the FRS 102 SORP or FRS 102.
Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP).
In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent that the charity has provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP).
Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the charity or have been met.
Page 10
The Avon Centre Limited NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
Incoming Resources (continued)
Government grants are included in the SOFA for the relevant reporting period
Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor. Any Gift Aid amount recovered on a donation is considered to be part of that gift and is treated as an addition to the same fund as the initial donation unless the donor or the terms of the appeal have specified otherwise.
Donated services and facilities are included at the value to the charity where this can be quantified. The value of services provided by volunteers has not been included in these accounts. Goods donated for on-going use by the charity are recognised as tangible fixed assets and included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable.
Resources Expended
Expenditure is recognised on an accruals basis as a liability is incurred.
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.
Other expenditure includes all expenditure that is neither related to raising funds for the charity nor part of its expenditure on charitable activities.
All costs are allocated between the expenditure categories of the SOFA on a basis designed to reflect the use of the resource. Costs relating to a particular activity are allocated directly, others are apportioned on an appropriate basis, as set out in the notes to the accounts.
Taxation
The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.
Tangible Fixed Assets
Fixed assets (excluding investments) are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. The costs of minor additions or those costing below £1,000 are not capitalised.
Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of each asset over its expected useful life:-
-
Freehold property (land only) - not provided
-
Improvements to property - at various rates on cost
-
Plant and machinery - 15% on cost
-
Horses - 20% on cost
-
Motor vehicles 20% on cost
Impairment reviews are carried out as and when evidence comes to light that that the recoverable amount of a functional fixed asset is below its net book value due to damage, obsolescence or other relevant factors.
Financial Instruments
A financial asset or a financial liability is recognised only when the entity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.
Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the amount receivable or payable including any related transaction costs, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where it is recognised at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument.
2 Company status
The company is limited by guarantee and has no share capital. The liability of its members is limited to £1.

Restricted funds relate to monies given for specific purposes, which can be identified by the above descriptions.
Once a fixed asset has been purchased, or the funds utilised (and assuming there is no restriction upon the use of the asset), the funds are transferred to the appropriate fund.
Designated funds are unrestricted and relate to the total fixed assets at the current net book value and the remaining balance of the land loan. Repayments to the loan, and purchases of assets are transferred against this balance.
The prior year fund categories have been aggregated inline with the restriction rather than the donor.
The trustees have recognised that a number of restricted funds should have been consumed through standard expenditure over recent periods, and as such have transferred the funds against the unrestricted fund where the expenditure was recognised..
