NEWCASTLE MANSION HOUSE TRUST
TRUSTEE'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
The Trustee presents its annual report together with the financial statements of the Charity for the year 1 April 2020 to 31 March 2021.
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in the notes to the financial statements and comply with the charity’s governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and the relevant version of the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their financial statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).
Structure, governance and management
Constitution
The principal object of the trust is to provide a Mansion House for the City of Newcastle upon Tyne. The Mansion House is the official residence of the Lord Mayor of Newcastle upon Tyne.
Methods of appointment or election of Trustee
The management of the trust is the responsibility of the Trustee who is elected and co-opted under the terms of the Trust deed.
Organisational structure and decision-making policies
Newcastle City Council acquired the Mansion House by an Assent dated 7th December 1953 from the executors of Arthur Sutherland deceased by way of a gift. The purpose of the gift is set out in his Will dated 3rd December 1951 which provided that the Council had the opportunity of exercising an option to accept the gift "for the purpose of a Mansion House for the City".
The gift was declared charitable and the property was therefore registered with the Charity Commissioners as a Charity in 1971.
The property is vested in the Council on charitable trust for the purpose of a Mansion House, the Council being the sole Trustee of the Trust. In 1990 the Charity Commissioners made an Administrative Scheme of the Trust.
The City Council is the sole Trustee of the Mansion House and has appointed an Advisory Committee to oversee the use and management of the premises. The Committee comprises three City Councillors, the Lord Mayor and three external advisors. In 2020/21 these were:
-
Councillor David Cook – Lord Mayor
-
Councillor Ged Bell - Chair
-
Councillor Felicity Mendelson - Vice-Chair
-
Councillor Gerry Keating
-
Alderman Colin Gray - external advisor
-
Malcolm Lumsden - external advisor
-
John Pescott - external advisor
The Newcastle Mansion House Trading Company was incorporated on 23 December 2015 to take over the trading activity of the trust and trading activities are expected to transfer in the foreseeable future.

NEWCASTLE MANSION HOUSE TRUST
TRUSTEE'S REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
Objectives and activities
Policies and objectives
The Trustee has referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the aims and objectives and in planning future activities.
Reference should be made to Activities for achieving objectives below for further information relating to the Trust's compliance with provision of its public benefit.
Activities undertaken to achieve objectives
The Mansion House represents the official residence of the Lord Mayor and as such is used for a wide range of Civic events, such as Civic lunches and dinners, 'at home' receptions for visiting dignitaries to the City, particularly those linked to the Lord Mayor's themes for their year in office.
However, in order to generate additional income and thereby minimise the financial contribution by the City Council as sole Trustee, the House is also used for a wide range of other purposes on the basis that such uses remain subordinate to the Lord Mayor's requirements. Such uses include civil weddings, meetings involving the City Council and its partners, private sector functions etc. Such activities are managed within the context of a business plan as endorsed by the Advisory Committee.
Achievements and performance
Review of activities
Significant work is progressing by Hospitality Services in partnership with finance colleagues to implement audit recommendations and improve:
-
Accuracy of re-charging
-
Process notes for staff for the end to end process of event enquiries through to invoicing
-
The capability of Rendezvous events booking system to reduce the current paper-based processes and provide more appropriate management information regarding profit and loss.
-
The link to the Councils system for promptly producing invoices and reconciling income.
Events in 2020/21 were cancelled from March 2020 and the house has remained largely closed throughout the period.
Events held in 20/21:
Number of weddings – 1 Number of private parties/dinners - 0 Number of external Corporate events (ie conferences, meetings etc) - 0 Number of large internal events (over 30 people) - 0 Number of Lord Mayor or Civic events – 0
In total, therefore there was 1 wedding for 6 guests and 2 internal meetings for 6 held at the Mansion House this year.

NEWCASTLE MANSION HOUSE TRUST
TRUSTEE'S REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
Achievements and performance (continued)
Future developments
The Hospitality team will continue to provide high quality services in line with Government COVID guidelines. The long term impact of COVID on the hospitality trade is not yet known, but it is anticipated this industry will take some time to fully recover.
Financial review
Going concern
The balance sheet shows negative unrestricted funds of £825,599 at 31 March 2021. After making appropriate enquiries, with an emphasis on the current and future effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on the hospitality trade, the Trustee has a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the Accounting Policies.
Key financial performance indicators
The Trust has made a deficit for the year of £136.4k however trading activity has not been able to generate a surplus which has led to no contribution towards the running of the house.
Financial risk management objectives and policies
The Trustee has assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the charity and is satisfied that systems and procedures are in place to mitigate our exposure to the major risks.
Principal funding
The City of Newcastle makes a contribution towards the upkeep of the Mansion House. In 2020/21 the contribution was £12,360.
Plans for the future
The Hospitality team will continue to provide high quality services in line with Government COVID guidelines. The long term impact of COVID on the hospitality trade is not yet known, but it is anticipated this industry will take some time to fully recover.

TRUSTEE'S REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
Statement of Trustee's responsibilities
The Trustee is responsible for preparing the Trustee's report and the 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 & Wales requires the Trustee to prepare financial statements for each financial 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 these financial statements, the Trustee is required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The Trustee is responsible for keeping proper accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charity's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable him to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed. The Trustee is also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

We report in respect of our examination of the Charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out our examination we have followed the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.
Independent Examiner's Statement
Your attention is to drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared the financial statements in accordance with the relevant version of the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their financial statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). This is in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has been withdrawn.

-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
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.
We 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.
This report is made solely to the Charity's Trustee, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008.

NEWCASTLE MANSION HOUSE TRUST
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
1. Accounting policies
1.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the relevant version of the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their financial statements in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.
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’. This departure has involved following the relevant version 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) rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
Newcastle Mansion House Trust meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy.
1.2 Going concern
As explained in the annual report, the trust provides facilities for the Lord Mayor of Newcastle upon Tyne and other civic events for the City Council of Newcastle upon Tyne. The balance sheet shows negative unrestricted funds of £825,599 at 31 March 2021 and the trust is supported by the City of Newcastle upon Tyne which is the major unrestricted creditor as explained in note 15 of the financial statements.
The coronavirus pandemic has had a substantial impact on the charity, but the trustees have received assurance from the City Council of Newcastle upon Tyne that they will continue the ongoing support of the trust and therefore, the Trustee believes it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis.
1.3 Income
All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.
1.4 Expenditure
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 allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.
Costs of generating funds are costs incurred in attracting voluntary income, and those incurred in trading activities that raise funds.

NEWCASTLE MANSION HOUSE TRUST
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
1. Accounting policies (continued)
1.4 Expenditure (continued)
Charitable activities and Governance costs are costs incurred on the charity's charitable operations, including support costs and costs relating to the governance of the charity apportioned to charitable activities.
1.5 Interest receivable
Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the trust; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.
1.6 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
The Mansion House was gifted to the City of Newcastle "for the purpose of a Mansion House" and as such cannot be sold and therefore has no value.
A review for impairment of a fixed asset is carried out if events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of any fixed asset may not be recoverable. Shortfalls between the carrying value of fixed assets and their recoverable amounts are recognised as impairments. Impairment losses are recognised in the statement of financial activities.
Tangible fixed assets are carried at cost, net of depreciation and any provision for impairment.
Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of fixed assets, less their estimated residual value, over their expected useful lives on the following bases:
- Fixtures and fittings 5 years Other fixed assets - 10 - 20 years
1.7 Investments
Fixed asset investments including cash on deposit are recognised at their transaction cost.
1.8 Stocks
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slow-moving stocks.
1.9 Debtors
Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered.
1.10 Liabilities and provisions
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably. Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.

1.12 Fund accounting
