## Darlington Railway Preservation Society Trustees’ annual report (continued) 

## Structure, Governance and Management 

The Society is a registered charity established as per the declaration of trust 27[th] April 1982 Management of the trusts work is carried out by the societies committee, elected at the AGM each year, as per the society’s constitution. Overseen by the Trustees. 

## Objects & activities of the charity 

TO PRESERVE FOR THE PUBLIC BENEFIT OF STEAM AND OTHER RAILWAY LOCOMOTIVES AND ROLLING STOCK MACHINERY AND EQUIPMENT FOR EDUCATIONAL AND HISTORICAL INTEREST. 

To acquire, purchase, restore, and preserve artifacts of Darlington’s Famous railway heritage, for the benefit of future generations. 

The society has restored seven locomotives that were built or operated in Darlington and other railway artifacts which are on public display in the societies building. 

The society has regular public open days when visitors can view the collection, 

On open days the society operate and give rides on their narrow-gauge railway, a miniature railway and a Wickham trolly. 

Evening visits are arranged by request, popular with local scout groups. 

The societies members range from teenage to retired. 

In 2022 the society put much effort into preparation for relocating the collection and workshop facilities into new premises as part of development on a railway quarter lead by Darlington Borough Council. The society committee has focused much effort into planning for establishing the DRPS as key component of preserving Darlington’s Historic Railway heritage into the future. Restoration work is carried out on site by members. 

As always, the society recognises the importance of its members who are all volunteers and is hugely grateful to their contribution. 

The total volunteer hours across the year are equivalent to 3 to 4 full time staff in terms of hours. One major achievement has been the restoration from nearly scrap condition to full running order of steam engine built in Darlington during 1953, named Borough of Darlington. This engine is now hired to other heritage railways across the country, demonstrating Darlington’s famous engine building skills. 

## Financial review 

Engines require a full overhaul every ten years; for which reserves are required for when this work is needed. 

The funds for the restoration, preservation, and maintenance of 78018 BR Standard 2MT stands at £63,336.61, to be used to ensure the future preservation and running of the locomotive. During the year the charity received income of £34,563.96 and made payments of £4,288.81. There was therefore an excess of receipts over payments for the year of £30,275.15. When added to funds brought forward of £76,600.18 gives total funds of £106,875.33.

## **2.1 INCOME** 

|**2.1 INCOME**<br>**Note 2      Accounting**|**policies**|
|---|---|
|**Recognition of income**|These 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; and|
||•  the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.|
|**Offsetting**|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**|Grants and donations are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition|
||criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP).|
|**Tax reclaims on**|Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor.  Any|
|**donations and gifts**|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.|
|**Contractual income and**|This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or services|
|**performance related**|or met the performance related conditions.|
|**grants**||
|**Donated goods**|Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be|
||exchanged) unless impractical to do so.|
||The cost of any stock of goods donated for distribution to beneficiaries is deemed to be the|
||fair value of those gifts at the time of their receipt and they are recognised on receipt.  In the|
||reporting period in which the stocks are distributed, they are recognised as an expense at the|
||carrying amount of the stocks at distribution.|
||Donated goods for resale are measured at fair value on initial recognition, which is the|
||expected proceeds from sale less the expected costs of sale, and recognised in 'Income from|
||other trading activities' with the corresponding stock recognised in the balance sheet.  On its|
||sale the value of stock is charged against 'Income from other trading activities' and the|
||proceeds from  sale are also recognised as 'Income from other trading activities'.|
||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.|
||Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations when|
||receivable.|
|**Donated goods, services**|The value of donated goods, services and facilities are not included in income or expenditure.|
|**and facilities**|Such items are currently incidental to the operation of the Trust and the Trustees do not|
||believe that the work needed to record them will be justified by the benefit provided to a user|
||of the accounts.|
|**Support costs**|The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs.|
|**Volunteer help**|The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in|
||the trustees’ annual report.|
|**Income from interest,**|This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can be|
|**royalties and dividends**|measured reliably.|
|**Income from membership**|<br>Membership subscriptions which gives a member the right to buy services or other benefits|
|**subscriptions**|are recognised as income earned from the provision of goods and services as income from|
||charitable activities.|
|**Settlement of insurance**|Insurance claims are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria|
|**claims**|are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP) and are included as an item of other income in the|
||SoFA.|

## **2.2 EXPENDITURE AND LIABILITIES** 

|**2.2 EXPENDITURE**<br>**Note 2      Accounting**|**AND LIABILITIES**<br>**policies (cont)**|
|---|---|
|**Liability recognition**|Liabilities are recognised where it is more likely than not that there is a legal or constructive|
||obligation committing the charity to pay out resources and the amount of the obligation can be|
||measured with reasonable certainty.|
|**Governance  and support**|Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support.|
|**costs**|Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its|
||compliance with regulation and good practice.|
|**Redundancy cost**|The charity made no redundancy payments during the reporting period.|
|**Deferred income**|No material item of deferred income has been included in the accounts.|
|**Creditors**|The charity has creditors which are measured at settlement amounts less any trade discounts|
|**Provisions for liabilities**|A liability is measured on recognition at its historical cost and then subsequently measured at|
||the best estimate of the amount required to settle the obligation at the reporting date|
|**Basic financial**|The charity accounts for basic financial instruments on initial recognition as per paragraph|
|**instruments**|11.7 FRS102 SORP.  Subsequent measurement is as per paragraphs 11.17 to 11.19,|
||FRS102 SORP.|
|**2.3 ASSETS**||
|**Tangible fixed assets for**|These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least £100|
|**use by charity**|They are valued at cost.|
||The depreciation rates and methods used are disclosed later in the notes.|
|**Heritage assets**|The charity has heritage assets, that is, non-monetary assets with historic, artistic, scientific,|
||technological, geophysical or environmental qualities that are held  and maintained principally|
||for their contribution to knowledge and culture.|
||The Trust's collection of locomotives, carriages, railway artefacts and archive material has not|
||been capitalized on the balance sheet. Donations to it are not valued and where material is|
||purchased, it is written off in the year of purchase. The collection has been put together over|
||many years and is considered to be irreplaceable and inalienable. The cost of obtaining a|
||valuation, the reliability of which would be questionable, is likely to be out of proportion to the|
||benefit provided to a user of the accounts.|
|**Stocks and work in**|Goods or services provided as part of a charitable activity are measured at net realisable|
|**progress**|value based on the service potential provided by items of stock.|
|**Debtors**|Debtors (including trade debtors and loans receivable) are measured on initial recognition at|
||settlement amount after any trade discounts or amount advanced by the charity.|
||Subsequently, they are measured at the cash or other consideration expected to be received.|

**Details of the accounting policy for the recognition and valuation of donated goods, facilities and services.** 

The value of donated goods, services and facilities are not included in income or expenditure. Such items are currently incidental to the operation of the Trust and the Trustees do not believe that the work needed to record them will be justified by the benefit provided to a user of the accounts. 

**Details of other forms of other donated goods and services not recognised in the accounts, eg contribution of unpaid volunteers.** 

The DRPS is hugely gratefully to the valuable contribution of its Members and Volunteers. The value of such is difficult to estimate. It is recognused that many of our members put in substantial hours on and off site.

## **Note 13             Fair value of assets and liabilities** 

**Details of the charity's exposure to credit risk (the risk of incurring a loss due to a debtor not paying what is owed) , liquidity risk (the risk of not being able to meet short term financial demands) and market risk (the risk that the value of an investment will fall due to changes in the market) arising from financial instruments to which the charity is exposed at the end of the reporting period and explain how the charity manages those risks.** 

The DRPS has suitable funds to sustain normal day to day activity in the short term however these funds do not cover costs associated with upcoming overhaul of locomotive 78018. If the required funds are not found by the time locomotive 78018 is due its overhaul the DRPS risks loosing a significant portion of its income and may rely on funds needed for the overhaul to pay basic running costs. To 21/12/2021 the society has managed to reserve £63,336.61 for locomotive 78018 witch depending on estimates at the time of the future overhaul may be 25%-50% of the funds required. The society must raise a minimum of 50% in order to negotiate a deal similar to that under which locomotive 78018 was previously completed and operates currently. The DRPS has no risky investments and has minimal credit risk. 

## **Note 14             Events after the end of the reporting period** 

_**This note details events (not requiring adjustment to the accounts) have occurred after the end of the reporting period but before the accounts are authorised which relate to conditions that arose after the end of the reporting period.**_ 

## **Details of the nature of the event** 

Upcoming relocation of the DRPS and involvement with Stockton Railway Heritage Quarter 

**Estimate of the financial effect of the event or a statement that such an estimate cannot be made.** 

The relocation of the DRPS is unavoidable and the society may have to consider its position carefully with regard to future direction, what assets can be housed and if any may need to be let go as well as the activities and goals the DRPS can undertake. The full financial burden of the move cannot yet be fully assessed, however the society is determined to achieve a positive sustainable future within Stockton Railway Heritage Quarter alongside its partners. 

The DRPS has moved out of the old S&D goods shed into temporary storage and paused all restoration, event and other on site activities as of February 2022. The society expects a 6- 9 month wait before being able to move into the 1861 shed once building works have completed. The DRPS will continue to receive revenue form locomotives already on hire.
