GLOUCESTERSHIRE AVIATION COLLECTION

COUNCIL OF MANAGEMENT'S REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2021

The Council of Management present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 31 August 2021.

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the charitable company's g overning document, the Companies Act 2006 and the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (Charities SORP (FRS 102)).

Objectives and activities

The objectives of the charitable company are to preserve the aeronautical heritage of Gloucestershire for the benefit of the public and to exhibit to members of the public materials related to flying, the air and space industry and its associated technology by means of the establishment and maintenance of an aviation museum and other permanent and temporary exhibitions.

Another year heavily affected by the Covid-19 pandemic. Opening times were severely restricted under government rules and until vaccines became available opening hours were kept to 3 hours a day at weekends with no bank holidays or extra days in school holidays. After the long shut-down in the first half of 2021 opening hours returned to 6 a day, but still only at weekends. The volunteer cadre for open days was down to half pre-covid levels. All the cockpits and toy aeroplanes were closed to the public until July and the Vulcan is still closed. Further government grants helped offset the loss of income, plus we were successful with our insurance claim for business interruption. The main display area still adheres to Covid safety rules but with a more permissive layout for visitor access. Some detail changes were made to exhibits.

Work in the phase 2 extension included completion of the new crew room and a staff toilet with appropriate plumbing and a partition to separate the planned education and art gallery space at the north end from the workshop. Health and safety issues in the workshop came to light, necessitating suspension of nearly all engineering work in the building. Major improvements have been made since. The Reach for a Million fundraising campaign made limited progress. In July we were successful in obtaining a grant of £10,000 to install solar PV panels and these were fitted in December 2021. 56 panels give a gross capacity of 20 Kw.

Public benefit statement

In planning the charitable company's actvities for the year, t he Council of Management ha s complied with the duty in section 17(5) of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to guidance published by the Charity Commission on public benefit, at its meetings.

The focus of the charitable company's activities has remained the provision of a museum. After a number of years of being closed to the public, the museum has now been up and running since 2014 and is open to everybody. An entrance fee is not charged, but donations are encouraged.

The charitable company continues to seek to acquire aircraft and materials related to flying and its associated technology, which are of an historic or educational value or interest. Most of the aircraft on site are on view.

COUNCIL OF MANAGEMENT'S REPORT (CONTINUED)(INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2021

Achievements and performance

The most significant achievement has been the survival of the museum during the pandemic. Thanks to government support grants via Tewkesbury Borough Council, business interruption insurance and a number of significant legacies the museum ended the year at least as well off as if there had been no closures.

Fundraising included a steady stream of donations via local lotteries. Paypal, Amazon, Golden Giving and Charites Aid Foundation. The weatherproof shell of phase 2A cost just over £352,000 with £130,000 on fitting out.

Reach for a Million had reached £231,000 by year end.

A summary of the main activities and achievements of the charitable company during the year is:

COUNCIL OF MANAGEMENT'S REPORT (CONTINUED)(INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2021

Financial review

It is the policy of the Council of Management that unrestricted funds (including designated funds) which do not relate to tangible and heritage assets should be maintained at a level equivalent to at least six month's unrestricted expenditure. The Council of Management considers that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the charitable company's current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. This level of reserves has been maintained throughout the year.

At 31 August 2021 overall reserves stood at £1,401,907 (2020 £1,337,587). This figure consisted of: unrestricted funds £462,069 (2020 £463,708), including revaluation reserve £373,547 (2020 £373,547), designated funds £322,491 (2020 £257,889) and restricted reserves £617,347 (2020 £615,990).

At 31 August 2021 unrestricted funds of £460,695 (2020 £462,453), designated funds of £203,912 (2020 £159,351) and restricted funds of £597,650 (2020 £595,126) could only be realised by disposing of tangible fixed assets.

This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions relating to small companies within Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT

TO THE COUNCIL OF MANAGEMENT OF GLOUCESTERSHIRE AVIATION COLLECTION

I report on the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 August 2021, which are set out on pages 7 to 21.

Respective responsibilities of Council of Management and examiner

The Council of Management, who are also the directors of Gloucestershire Aviation Collection for the purposes of company law, are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Council of Management consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011, the 2011 Act, and that an independent examination is needed an ICAEW member, which is one of the listed bodies.

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006 and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:

Basis of independent examiner's report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the financial statements presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the financial statements present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the next statement.

Independent examiner's statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2021

1 Accounting policies

Charity information

Gloucestershire Aviation Collection is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office is Unit 3 Ambrose House, Meteor Court, Barnett Way, Barnwood, Gloucester, GL4 3GG.

1.1 Accounting convention

These accounts have been prepared in accordance with FRS 102 “The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland” (“FRS 102”), “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” the Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying FRS 102, the Companies Act 2006, UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice as it applies from 1 January 2015 and the Charities Act 2011. The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling , which is the functional currency of the charity . Monetary a mounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention modified to include the revaluation of heritage assets. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2 Going concern

The Council of Management has carefully considered going concern, particularly in the light of the impact of the Covid 19 pandemic. At the time of approving the financial statements, the Council of Management has a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the Council of Management continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

There are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue.

1.3 Charitable funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Council of Management in furtherance of their charitable objectives.

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

1.5 Resources expended

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, 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 classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges are allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

Liabilities recognised as resources expended are included in the period when these is a legal or constructive obligation, committing the charitable company to the expenditure. Their allocation is as follows:

Costs of running the museum, shop and cafe are included under charitable activities.

Costs of examining the accounts are included under charitable activities.

1.6 Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.

Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:

Freehold buildings 2.5% on cost Plant and machinery 25% on written down value Fixtures, fittings & equipment 25% on written down value

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities .

1.7 Heritage assets

Heritage assets are stated at valuation less depreciation. Revaluation gains/losses are credited/charged to the relevant fund account.

No depreciation is charged because it is immaterial, as the estimated residual value of the assets is not materially different from the carrying amount of the assets.

1.8 Impairment of fixed assets

At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any ) .

GLOUCESTERSHIRE AVIATION COLLECTION

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2021

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

Recoverable amount is the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset for which the estimates of future cash flows have not been adjusted.

If the recoverable amount of an asset is estimated to be less than its carrying amount, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount. An impairment loss is recognised immediately in income/ (expenditure) for the year , unless the relevant asset is carried at a revalued amount, in which case the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation decrease.

Recognised impairment losses are reversed if, and only if, the reasons for the impairment loss have ceased to apply. Where an impairment loss subsequently reverses, the carrying amount of the asset is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but so that the increased carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset in prior years. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately, unless the relevant asset is carried in at a revalued amount, in which case the reversal of the impairment loss is treated as a revaluation increase.

1.9 Stocks

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell .

1.10 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

1.11 Financial instruments

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the charity 's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

GLOUCESTERSHIRE AVIATION COLLECTION

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 AUGUST 2021

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future p aymen ts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity ’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

1.12 Current assets

1.13 Liabilities

Liabilities are stated at settlement value.

2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements

In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the Council of Management are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.

The charitable company has acquired over many years several retired military aircraft and other artifacts. These include 5 complete Meteors, a Gladiator, forward fuselages of a Hunter, a Harrier, another Meteor, a Typhoon, Trident forward fuselage and the sole suriving Javelin F.4. The charitable company also has replicas of the Gloster E28/39, the Gloster Gamecock and a Hurricane. There is also a large number of other artifacts, including several aero engines. Those aircraft which have undergone restoration or have been built more or less from scrap, have a significant amount of volunteer labour time invested in them.

These assets, were valued by the Council of Management, at 31 August 2013, at market value, based on insurance values to reflect replacement cost. Due to the nature of the assets involved, the Council of Management believes this to be a realistic basis on which to value these assets. The valuation has not been updated in the reporting period, as the council of management is not aware of any material change since the last valuation.

Had these assets not been revalued, they would have been stated at cost £105,342 (2020 £96,062). Any depreciation would have been immaterial, as the estimated residual value of the assets would have at least equalled their cost.

Recorded expenditure this year and for the preceding 5 years, on these assets is as follows

2021 £9,280 2020 £4,130
2019 £6,590 2018 £3,850
2017 £5,831 2016 £8,884

17 Operating lease commitments

The charitable company leases the land upon which its building is situated from a third party landlord. Under this lease, rent payable is based on a percentage of a defined 'operating profit'. Accordingly, future rent commitments cannot be quantified with reasonable certainty, however, based on this definition of operating profit, it is unlikely that any significant rent will be payable to the landlord for the forseeable future.

18 Control

The Council of Management believe the charitable company is not under the control of any individual.

19 Related Party Transactions

There were no related party transactions, requiring disclosure, during the year.
