**THE FARMLAND MUSEUM** 

**REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022** 

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 31 December 2022. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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) (effective 1 January 2019). 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Objectives and aims** 

The objects are the promotion of the education of the public in the social and natural history, geology and archaeology of England with particular reference to agriculture and agricultural history in Cambridgeshire and the Fens. 

## **Public benefit** 

In setting our objectives and planning our activities, the Trustees have given careful consideration to the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit. In particular, the Trustees have considered how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set. 

The Trustees have complied with the duty in Section 4 of the 2011 Charities Act to have due regard to guidance published by the Charity Commission, including public benefit guidance. 

The activities of the trust educate the public in the social and natural history, geology and archaeology of England, with particular reference to agriculture and agricultural history in Cambridgeshire and the Fens. 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Charitable activities** 

The museum has had another successful year since the end of the pandemic. Visitor numbers are up, income is up, in particular from the café, and our feedback from visitors is very positive. 

Our septic tank has reached the end of its life, and we have secured funding from the Cambridge Community Foundation for replacement, signage and landscaping. Unfortunately, we learnt that there will be no renewal of our annual grant from South Cambridgeshire as this money has been reallocated to other expenditure in the community. This means that next April, we will not get the £8,500 per annum that we have received for the last three years. 

Staff hours have been slightly increased to cope with the workload, but the extra cost is more than compensated by  the café income. Additional staff time is required for holiday cover and busy event days in the café. 

A volunteer recruitment project, funded by Share East, is underway, and a consultant is helping us with this. The education team has doubled in size and we have a retired head teacher now running our schools sessions. 

We have had a number of summer exhibitions, events and children's activities which have proved popular and successful, but a series of winter events proved less so and will not be repeated. 

We look forward to another great year in 2023.

**REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022** 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial position** 

The Museum activities have now settled down to comparative normality after the COVID pandemic. 

Comparative figures show a significant growth in income from 2021, with the café being a significant contributor. During the year the Museum received a donation of £30,000 which has been credited, after consultation with the donor who wishes to remain anonymous, to the Designated Development Fund. 

At the year end, the General Fund showed a deficit of £9,472 compared to a deficit of £24,022 at the end of 2021. This negative balance takes into account longer term creditors, and the unrestricted net current asset position is £85,253 (2021: 41,681). This is higher than the figure that the Trustees have considered in their reserves policy (see below), but because the grant from South Cambridgeshire District Council has been withdrawn for 2023 and subsequent years, the Trustees feel that retaining this higher balance is prudent. 

## **Reserves policy** 

We have a stated reserves policy to hold current assets in the General Fund representing 3 months expenditure at the year end to cover the period between January and March when the museum is not open for visitors and income is effectively zero. As noted above, at the end of 2022, the net current assets total in the General Fund was equivalent to 4.8 months’ expenditure which comfortably covers this. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Governing document** 

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006. 

## **Recruitment and appointment of new trustees** 

As set out in the Articles of Association (39-48), the Trustees have power at any time to appoint any person to be a Trustee either to fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the existing Trustees. Any Trustees so appointed shall hold office only until the next AGM and shall then be eligible for election or re-election. 

The Chairman of the Board of Trustees is the person appointed as Chairman by majority at each AGM of the Charity. The Chairman will hold office from the date of his/her appointment until determination of the AGM next following the AGM at which he/she was appointed. 

The Trust may from time to time by Ordinary Resolution increase or reduce the number of Trustees but so that the number of Trustees is at no time less than three. When considering Trustees, the Board has regard to the requirement for any specialist skills needed. 

## **Related parties** 

Councillor Anna Bradnam is the appointed representative of South Cambridgeshire District Council on the committee, who are therefore a related party. Transactions with the Council are disclosed in the notes to the financial statements.

**INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE FARMLAND MUSEUM** 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The Farmland Museum ('the Company')** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2022. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity's trustees of the Company (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 Company 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** 

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

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of 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 

4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (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.

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **Basis of preparing the financial statements** 

The financial statements of the charitable company, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Companies Act 2006. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. 

The accounts have been prepared on a going concern basis. The charity is heavily dependent on income from relatively few funders together with admission and funds from school visits. 

The Trustees have an agreement in place with administrators of the Local Government Pension Scheme concerning the significant pension liability disclosed in the notes. This provides for an initial lump-sum payment and then a series of monthly installments as disclosed in notes 14 and 15. 

The Trustees are confident that the Charity will have sufficient cash to continue in business for the next 12 months from the date of this report and therefore that the Going Concern Basis of preparation is appropriate. 

## **Significant judgements** 

Apart from those judgements involving estimations, the management has not made any judgements in the process of applying the entity's accounting policies that have significant effect on the amounts recognised in the accounts. There are no key assumptions concerning the future or other key sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period. 

## **Income** 

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

## **Expenditure** 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

## **Charitable activities** 

The trustees are of the view that the charity has one main activity - that of educating the public in the social and natural history, geology and archaeology of England. Charitable activity costs have therefore been allocated to this activity. 

## **Allocation and apportionment of costs** 

Costs are directly allocated to restricted funds where the costs have been incurred in accordance with the terms of the restricted fund. 

## **Tangible fixed assets** 

Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. 

Freehold property - 2% on cost Fixtures and fittings - 25% on reducing balance

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022** 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued** 

## **Stocks** 

Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving items. 

## **Taxation** 

The charity is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities. 

## **Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees. 

Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes. 

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements. 

## **Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits** 

The charitable company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the charitable company's pension scheme are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate. 

## **Cash at bank and in hand** 

Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a maturity of 3 months or less from the date of acquisition of the opening of the deposit. 

## **Debtors** 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments and accrued income are recognised at the amount prepaid or accrued net of any trade discounts due. 

## **Creditors** 

Creditors are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.
