The Bardsey Island Trust Limited 

## Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 December 2023 

The Trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report together with the financial statements of The Bardsey Island Trust Limited (the "Trust") for the year ended 31 December 2023. 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 charity's vision is to be an exemplar of Welsh island life, that supports a vibrant island community, economy and healthy ecology. Its objectives to deliver this vision are as follows: 

1. To support a community of residents engaged in rural enterprises. 

2. To protect and enhance a range of characteristic habitats that support diverse and typical wildlife, which are maintained in favourable condition through appropriate management. 

3. To honour, celebrate, explore and share the Welsh language, natural and living heritage, culture and spirituality of the island. 

4. To ensure that the built landscape and infrastructure are sensitively maintained and developed whilst preserving the sense of place. 

5. To minimise impact on the environment with responsible management and stewardship. 

6. To provide an excellent visitor experience. 

7. To encourage and enable people, and in particular the young people, of Wales to visit the island when access is possible. 

8. To ensure funding for the Trust and generate alternative income streams, enabling the Trust to meet its objectives. 

The Trust can only achieve these objectives through the generous support of members, benefactors and volunteers, whose significant contribution is gratefully acknowledged. The Trust would like to pay particular tribute to: 

a) All those who gave generous donations in 2023, and to those who gave in their legacies to support the Trust's work. 

b) To all volunteers who sit on the Trust's committees providing their expertise to support its aims as well as the many volunteers who give their time and energy volunteering on Enlli supporting the wardens in their work. 

The Trust would also like to thank the Architectural Heritage Fund, Gwynedd Council's Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty programme and Natural Resources Wales for their support throughout 2023. 

A particular thanks to the residents of Enlli as well as the staff and contractors who have delivered so much of the Trust's work during 2023.

## Report of the Trustees 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Public benefit** 

The Trustees confirm that they have referred to the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the Trust's aims and objectives and in planning its future activities. The Trust continues to seek to maintain Enlli as a living community, visited, enjoyed and appreciated by as many people as possible, whilst protecting and preserving the designated nature conservation features and historical, archeological and religious sites. 

## **Significant activities in 2023** 

The Trust has continued to fulfil its objectives during 2023. The Trust's core business remains the provision of accommodation to paying guests while respecting the natural and living heritage, culture and spirituality of Enlli and, once again, holiday lettings were at a maximum. 

The Trust's paying daily or weekly visitors contribute to the maintenance of rural enterprise on the island. Moreover, the Trust has continued to work with and support the other long-term residents of the island, as well as the regular boat service, in supporting these operations wherever possible. 

During 2023, the Trust has entered into a long-term relationship with Natural Resources Wales by way of a section 16 Environment (Wales) Act agreement. A first step to implement the agreement was undertaken through the appointment of consultants charged with the preparation of a nature conservation management plan, due to be finalized in early 2025. Helped by Natural Resources Wales' funding, the Trust will thus be able to work to maintain a high level of nature conservation on Enlli. 

Over the summer months, the Storws building was entirely renovated. This iconic building, which greets visitors on  their arrival on Enlli, had become extremely dilapidated; its renovation was made possible due to funding provided by the Architectural Heritage Fund and the Area for Outstanding Natural Beauty. Further funding was also granted in the autumn by the National Heritage Lottery Fund. These monies will be used to create two part time jobs as well as further develop the Trust's activities on Enlli. 

Spirituality remains important. The chaplaincy programme was again successful and bookings have already been taken for the 2024 season. Two retreats were organized during the year, good feedback was received from both and further are planned for 2024. 

The Trust seeks to minimize the environmental impact of its activities. Unfortunately, the possibility of benefitting from Nova Innovation's tidal energy scheme in the Bardsey Sound was put on hold in early 2023. However, in playing its part, the Trust doubled the electrical output from its established solar array at Ty Bach to supply electricity to adjacent properties. 

Providing information to stakeholders and visitors is an important aspect of the Trust's operations. After much hard work Enlli was awarded "Dark Sky Sanctuary" status early in 2023, joining only 16 other sites worldwide 

and being the first in Europe. Having achieved this status, the Trust will work to protect the Enlli dark skies and promote their importance, both locally and nationally, and enhance the island visitor experience. The Trust also took advantage of the Boduan Eisteddfod to promote its activities via a series of dedicated events, as well as the week-long presence of staff and trustees, at a stand highlighting its activities. 

Finally, the Trust's 2023 Annual General Meeting was held on 20 May. Talks were given by Dianne Charles, Chair of the Bardsey Bird and Field Observatory, and Ben Porter of Ben Porter Photography on the history of the Observatory and the impact of light on seabirds' nocturnal flight patterns. 

## **Future plans** 

The Trust recognizes the enormous challenge of maintaining and improving its properties. In addition, the need to  ensure that the island retains its unique Welsh, natural, cultural and spiritual character while permitting environmentally and economically sustainable development. To achieve these ends the Trust will seek additional funding as well as ensuring that its staffing levels permit development to continue.

## Report of the Trustees 

## for the Year Ended 31 December 2023 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial position** 

During 2023 the Trust incurred an excess of expenditure over income due to its contribution to the Storws renovation, general repairs and maintenance as well as increased staffing costs. Grant income was received from a number of sources and used to fund the Storws as well as support the tenant farmer in his land management and conservation activities. Moreover, during the year, the Trust achieved revaluation gains on its investments due to an improved stock market performance. Finally, at 31 December 2023 the Trust was fortunate to have reasonable bank balances, collectible debtors and few liabilities. 

## **Reserves policy** 

The Trust's reserves policy is to hold sufficient unrestricted funds to meet day to day running costs for the year ahead as well as making allowance for the timing of the receipt of grant monies. Monetary details of the Trust's funds are shown in note 15. 

## Unrestricted funds 

These are funds not designated by the Trustees for any particular purpose. 

a) General - represents net income from on-going operations; 

b) Spirituality - represents income and expense related to spiritual activities 

## Restricted funds 

These are funds subject to restrictions imposed by the donor and a capital equipment reserve to cover the depreciation on major capital items and those grant aided: 

a) Revaluation - unrealized gains on investments; 

b) Carreg Mawr Murals - to cover restoration work on the Brenda Chamberlain murals and Carreg Fawr; 

c) Funded Equipment - to cover the depreciation of grant aided assets. As the related assets were fully depreciated during the year, the remaining balance has been released. 

d) Endowment - initial appeal funds plus realized gains on investments. 

## **Investment policy and objectives** 

Under the Memorandum and articles of association, the Trust has the power to invest broadly. A cautious and increasingly sustainable investment approach is taken. Investments other than a long-term bank deposit comprise a Quilter Multifunds Collective Investment Account in a range of corporate bonds and equity backed investments together with an Aviva investment portfolio . 

Investments are made on a long-term basis to ensure future financial viability. 

The Trust's financial advisor, Element FPM Ltd, provides financial advice as required. 

## **Risk Management** 

The Trust has established an organisational risk register which is reviewed by the Council on an annual basis . 

In addition, Trustees consider health and safety issues at each Council meeting . Paths, tracks and stiles are regularly checked and maintained and there is a detailed review of all the buildings in the spring and autumn . 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Governing document** 

The Trust is constituted as a company limited by guarantee and is a registered charity. It is governed by its Memorandum of Association dated 24 November 1977; its current Articles of Association, setting out an updated constitution were adopted in 2019. 

Members numbered 472 at 31 December 2023 (422 at 31 December 2022). Every member in the event of the Trust being wound up undertakes to contribute to any liabilities up to a maximum of £1.

## Report of the Trustees 

## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES** 

The Trustees (who are also directors of The Bardsey Island Trust Limited for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under company law the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of The Bardsey Island Trust Limited and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to: 

a) select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; 

b) observe the methods and principles in the Charities' Statement of Recommended Practice; 

c)  make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

d) state whether applicable UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and 

e) prepare the accounts on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that The Bardsey Island Trust Limited will continue in business. 

The Trustees are responsible for maintaining proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of The Bardsey Island Trust Limited and to enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of The Bardsey Island Trust Limited and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of The Bardsey Island Trust Limited 

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The Bardsey Island Trust Limited ('the Company')** 

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2023. 

## **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** 

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, which is one of the listed bodies. 

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.
