Objectives and activities

SORP reference
Summary of the purposes of
the charity as set out in its
governing document
Para 1.17 The North West Museum of Transport
Limited was founded in 1982 to establish
and maintain for the education and benefit of
the public of Merseyside, the North West of
England and North Wales, an operating
transport museum, the North West Museum
of Road Transport. The Charity aims to do
this by promoting the permanent
preservation of road transport vehicles and
related items of actual or potential historic or
scientific importance or educational value,
and to encourage and promote public
interest and public education in the same.
Summary of the main
activities in relation to those
purposes for the public
benefit, in particular, the
activities, projects or services
identified in the accounts.
Para 1.17 and
1.19
The principal activities and objectives are to
operate a transport museum to conserve
and preserve historic road transport vehicles
and related items of interest for the benefit,
education and information of the public. It
has carried out this activity in its current
premises since 1986. The museum is open
to the public at weekends, and other times
by arrangement.
The Charity will acquire, restore, conserve
and display vehicles and artefacts
associated with its aims in a manner that
portrays their places in road transport
history, and work to conserve the fabric and
integrity of the original.
The Charity will continue to promote interest
in historic road transport for the benefit of the
public by encouraging the public to visit the
museum, and by providing educational
displays. It will also do this by taking historic
vehicles and related artefacts to suitable
events and schools etc. for the benefit of
those who may not visit the museum itself.
The Charity will continue to encourage
anyone with an interest in its aims to be
involved and participate in its activities. It will
act in a professional manner to safeguard
and further its aims and the assets that are
in the Charity’s care. By encouraging the
involvement of volunteers in its activities,
several of whom have retired from the motor
industry and have experience and skills in
the construction and maintenance of road
transport vehicles, the Charity provides a
focus for the retention of these skills and an
educational opportunity for these skills to be
passed on to future generations.
Statement confirming
whether the trustees have
had regard to the guidance
issued by the Charity
Commission on public
benefit
Para 1.18 The trustees have had regard to the
guidance issued by the Charity Commission
on public benefit.

Contribution made by Para 1.38 The activities of the Charity are carried out
volunteers almost entirely by a small number of
volunteer members, except for work carried
out by professionals. There was a reduction
in the number of active volunteers due to the
Covid lockdowns, and their increasing age.
Fortunately, some new and younger
volunteers have joined since the museum
reopened and have made significant
contributions to the activities of the museum.
There are about 30 regular active volunteers
who work on a rota basis to open the
museum to visitors. They are also involved
with vehicle maintenance and restoration,
archive conservation and outreach, using
relevant skills and passing these on to
others for their training and education.

Achievements and performance

Summary of the main
achievements of the charity,
identifying the difference the
charity’s work has made to
the circumstances of its
beneficiaries and any wider
benefits to society as a
whole.
Para 1.20 The North West Museum of Road Transport
is housed in the former St. Helens
Corporation bus depot in St. Helens town
centre, which is a very accessible and
appropriate setting. The building has been in
continuous use for road transport purposes
for over 100 years and retains many of its
original features. The Charity has about 40
historic road vehicles in its care, mainly
buses from the North West but also lorries,
cars, motorcycles and pedal cycles. There is
also a large quantity of road transport
archive material from the region and
elsewhere. The display collection also
includes several privately-owned historic
vehicles, and an accommodation fee is
charged for these.
Following withdrawal of the COVID-19
restrictions, the Museum was reopened to
the public from 23 May 2021, and has been
open every Sunday since, apart from the
Christmas and New Year closedown period.
It has not been possible to open on
Saturdays due to a shortage of volunteers,
but visitor numbers each Sunday since
reopening have been higher than before
COVID. Unfortunately it was not possible to
arrange any educational school and group
visits during this time, due to ongoing
restrictions in schools.
We aim for the museum to appeal to all
ages. Family groups of parents and
grandparents with younger and older
children make up a large proportion of our
visitors. The items on display are selected to
be of educational value and interesting for
visitors.
Further progress on the review and
cataloguing of the transport-related material
in the Charity’s archive collection. The
display of some of these items has been
refreshed to provide new interest and
information for visitors.
There was limited progress with vehicle
restoration during the period, as far as
resources allowed. A further vehicle display
re-arrangement has refreshed the content
for visitors, and the scope of the vehicle
display was enhanced by the arrival of a
preserved Blackpool tram.
Some repairs and renewals were made to
the Museum building during this period, as
the Charity is responsible the maintenance the Charity is responsible the maintenance
of the premises under its lease from St
Helens Council.
The public benefits from the Charity’s
activities by:
Providing a focus for skills retention
and teaching to a new generation;
Being a centre for the retention of
local transport history and relating
this to present and future generations
for educational purposes;
Giving the opportunity to experience
and gain a better understanding of a
part of life in a bygone era.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF NORTH WEST MUSEUM OF TRANSPORT LIMITED

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of North West Museum Of Transport Limited ('the Company')

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

  2. 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

  3. 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.

NORTH WEST MUSEUM OF TRANSPORT LIMITED

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 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.

Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s). The financial statements are prepared in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity.

Legal status of the charity

The charity is a company limited by guarantee and has no share capital. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £5 per member of the charity

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.

Tangible fixed assets

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

Fixtures and fittings - 33% on reducing balance and 5% on reducing balance

The need for any impairment of a fixed asset write down is considered if there is a concern over the carrying value of an asset and is assessed by comparing the carrying value in use or realisable value of the asset when appropriate.

Heritage assets

The charity holds heritage assets, which are tangible fixed assets of historical, artistic or scientific importance that are held to advance preservation and conservation objectives of the charity.

The very long expected lives of the heritage assets, due to their nature, value and need to be preserved means that depreciation is not material and is therefore, not provided. In addition, many of the assets could actually rise in value as time goes on, thus making depreciation less applicable.

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.

Hire purchase and leasing commitments

Rentals paid under operating leases are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities on a straight line basis over the period of the lease.
