Structure, Governance and Management (continued)

The Trustees meet at least biannually; in addition, there are four committees of Trustees, being the Finance and General Purposes Committee, the Audit Committee, the Collections Committee and the Nominations Committee.

The Finance and General Purposes Committee meets at least biannually and its role is to supervise the assets, investments and all financial and administrative affairs of the Charity. It supervises budgetary matters and recommends approval of the annual budget to the Trustees, as well as reviewing the pay and remuneration of the Charity’s key management personnel. The Audit Committee meets biannually; its role is to review the annual reports, accounts, auditors’ reports and to report on them to the Trustees. It is also responsible for reviewing the effectiveness of internal controls and for the identification and management of risk. The Collections Committee manages any conflicts of interest arising in relation to the loan of collections to the Charity by the 7th Earl of Harewood's Will Trust, the Lascelles family or other family trusts. The Nominations Committee meets when required. The Trust Director is responsible for day-to-day management and implementing decisions of the Trustees.

The Charity owns all of the share capital of Harewood House Trading Limited, the activities and results of which are shown at note 22 on page 37. During the year ended 31 December 2023, Harewood House Trading delivered the non-primary purpose trading activities of the group. Harewood House Trading is fully consolidated within the group accounts, which increases the level of turnover, assets and liabilities.

On appointment, Trustees are given an induction to the work of the Charity and provided with the information necessary for them to perform their role successfully, including a copy of the governing document of the Charity, a copy of recent Annual Reports and the Charity Commission’s guidance, “CC3a – The Essential Trustee: What you need to know” and its guidance on operating for the public benefit.

Strategic Report

A – Achievements and Performance

2023 was a year of considerable change at Harewood, with the first positive steps taken towards realising the Reimagining Harewood masterplan. In January 2023 it was announced that the ageing bird garden was to close; with the majority closing to the public in late February. The penguins remained until September, with the farm finally closing at the end of the year.

The Reimagining Harewood masterplan scheme was developed and included plans to develop a new playground, a new contemporary garden to replace the bird garden site, remodeling the listed Bakehouse into a visitor centre, vastly improving our welcome and orientation; and lastly a scheme to improve our car park capacity and all year usability.

The Trust continues to be regulated by the Fundraising Regulator, confirming our commitment to the Code of Fundraising Practice and the Fundraising Promise. A new Head of Development started in September, with a focus on capital development fundraising and further expansion of our fundraising goals.

The first phase of the Museum and Estate Development Fund funded repair of the south façade windows was completed in October, with the second phase due to be completed in spring 2024. Steady progress was made with the Digital Masterplan following on from the grant of £187k from the National Heritage Lottery Fund. The project aims to address new audience, digital interpretation and resource development, improvements to online retail/ ticketing and more significantly a new and much needed website.

We had great success with exhibitions and programming throughout the year; including the following:

'Missing Portraits’ series

Arthur France: Son of a Small Island

This was the first in a series of commissioned portraits honouring the lives of people of African-Caribbean descent with links to Harewood House. The exhibition centred on a portrait of Arthur France made by the Leeds-based artist Ashley Karrell, which celebrated the sitter as a community activist and founder of the Leeds West Indian Carnival. The exhibition was a great success, attracting positive press coverage. The exhibition also featured on BBC TV's Look North. Following the exhibition, the portrait was integrated as part of the permanent collection displays on the State Floor.

Faces of Britain and the Gaps in British History

'Faces of Britain' was a panel discussion on 2 February 2023 which explored the capacity of portraiture to represent Britain’s complex colonial history. The discussion was programmed to mark the launch of our 'Missing Portraits' series. The panelists were Thomas J. Price (artist), Nicholas Cullinan (Director, National Portrait Gallery), Moya Lothian-McLean (journalist), and David Lascelles, chaired by writer and campaigner Yassmin Abdel-Magied. Organised in partnership with Intelligence Squared, it was attended by a live audience of 45. A further 141 booked to view the live stream, which will be available to view via the Intelligence Squared platform.

A – Achievements and Performance (Continued)

Reframing Reynolds

Marking the 300th anniversary of the birth of Sir Joshua Reynolds, this collection-based exhibition examined six portraits of the Lascelles family. It offered new perspectives on the artist's work with new interpretations to disrupt centuries-old narratives, addressing themes relevant to contemporary audiences. The exhibition launched with fanfare on 16 March and was attending by key stakeholders from the National Heritage Lottery Fund, as well as representatives from the regional universities, museums, treasure houses, and galleries. Reframing Reynolds has received a broadly positive response from audiences with many complementing our fresh approach to interpreting Reynolds' work. It has also enjoyed good coverage in the local press, including a double-page spread in The Yorkshire Post.

Crowning Glory: The Coronation of King Charles III

Marking the coronation of King Charles III, the centrepiece of this display was the Lascelles family coronation robes which had been recently conserved using funds from the Patricia Harewood Will Trust. The display included a display of coronets, alongside archival documents and an illustrated timeline tracing the family's relationship to the ceremony.

Lucy + Jorge Orta, '70 x 7: The Meal, Act XLV', 8 July 2023 Seeds exhibition, 8 July to 22 October 2023

On 8 July, we presented the 45th iteration of '70 x 7: The Meal, Act XLV’, a large-scale art installation by Lucy + Jorge Orta. This brought together 200 people from communities across Leeds for a shared meal and to engage in conversations around environmental responsibility. The meals were prepared by students from Leeds City College, and served on artist-designed Royal Limoges plates and table runners. The project was co-created with communities across Leeds, including Rainbow Junktion, Tea + Tolerance, and Zest. The project also featured an exhibition of Lucy + Jorge Orta's hand-blown Murano glass seed sculptures, which were presented in the historic kitchen. The delivery of this ambitious project aligns with Harewood’s values, seeding a poetic metaphor for the need to care for nature, community and heritage. 29,359 people visited the exhibition and the visitor responses were positive. The project was generously supported by Leeds 2023 through the National Heritage Lottery Fund.

Missing Portraits: David Harewood OBE 9 September to 29 October 2023

Harewood House continued its Open History programme with a newly commissioned portrait of renowned actor David Harewood OBE, whose ancestors were enslaved by the 2[nd] Earl of Harewood on a sugar plantation in Barbados in the early 19[th] century. The 'Missing Portraits' series focuses on contemporary sitters of African-Caribbean heritage who have connections to Harewood, helping redress the lack of diversity across our historic collections. The new portrait was announced in early March and received widespread attention in the national press, including in The Voice, The Times, The Guardian, Tatler and BBC Online.

A – Achievements and Performance (Continued)

Sonia Boyce

Crop Over , 11 September to 22 October 2023

We were delighted to present Crop Over by British Afro-Caribbean artist Sonia Boyce. This video installation explores a Barbadian carnival which marks the end of the annual harvest, which originated in the 1780s on sugar cane plantations during slavery. Taking the form of a pseudo-documentary, Boyce’s work celebrates the annual carnival while examining its relationship to the transatlantic trade in enslaved individuals. Crop Over was commissioned by Harewood House in 2007. Boyce is one of the most prominent artists working today. She represented Britain at the 2022 Venice Biennial and the exhibition at Harewood was presented in tandem with the artist’s solo exhibition Feeling Her Way at Leeds Art Gallery.

Harewood’s Great Time Travelling Christmas

We worked with Studio MUTT, a Liverpool based architect and design firm, who collaborated with us to create a surreal and playful interpretation of Christmases from 1950 to 2050, with a futuristic Christmas dinner, a 90s disco, a wall of 2000s Christmas lights, and a giant playable 60s snakes and ladder board game.

Business performance

Harewood experienced significant growth in the two years following the pandemic, experiencing a 33% increase in visitor numbers since 2019. Although 2023 was more challenging and unpredictable, the final visitors numbers of 231,000 were still 20% more than pre-Covid. Visitor numbers were strong during February half-term (+44% up on 2022), in May and in September but generally tracked below 2022, with the closure of the bird garden, poorer weather, including the wettest spring in over 40 years impacting negatively.

Venue hire has performed well this year, 34% up on 2022. Our large outdoor events, including the Great British Food Festival, VW Festival, Dog Fest and Winter Artisan Market were well attended, although the AEG concert series was unfortunately cancelled due to insufficient sales. Filming activity was strong in the first half of the year, with the film writers’ strike impacting any further business growth in the latter half. The travel trade has performed well in 2023 with groups up 28% on last year and Christmas coach bookings up 53% on budget.

In October 2023, we took the decision to insource catering, to better control the offer and improve efficiencies.

Collections Care and Conservation

The painting of the Madonna and Child with St John and St Jerome attributed to Vivarini and Basaiti returned to Harewood in August after extensive conservation work by Simon Bobak and Anna Sande, and is now back on display in the Gallery. This work was funded by the Patricia Harewood Trust.

The Music Room pier tables were returned on 22 August, which had undergone conservation work at the Victoria and Albert Museums’ furniture conservation studio. The conservators who worked on the tables also came to Harewood and worked on the Music Room pier glasses in situ, this work was also completed in August.

We currently have one Chippendale torchère undergoing conservation at the Carvers & Gilders studio. This is the first of six which will be conserved in a phased way over the next few years. This work was also funded by the Patricia Harewood Trust.

B – Financial Review

The results for the year ended 31 December 2023 are shown on page 19 in the consolidated statement of financial activity (incorporating the income and expenditure account). Net assets have increased to £17,951,656 from £17,880,568 a movement of £71,088 inclusive of all donations and unrealised gains on investments. The results for the year and the balance sheet of Harewood House Trading Limited are shown at note 22 (page 37), and the results are consolidated within these accounts.

Overall income from day visitor and membership admissions was £1,966,978 (2022 - £2,241,618). Within this number, visitor and membership admissions under gift aid was down on prior year at £875,106 (2022 - £897,482). Costs of generating voluntary income increased to £1,009,206 (2022 - £963,110). Fundraising and trading costs increased to £1,704,161 (2022 - £1,452,851). This increase in costs is due to the higher levels of activity across the Harewood House Trust site. Expenditure on charitable activities increased to £2,145,075 (2022 - £2,077,156) and was significantly impacted by rising costs in particular utilities and maintenance.

The Group’s trading activities (events, retail, catering and film work) generated a surplus of £421,477 (2022 - £463,990) for the year.

The overall consolidated surplus of the charity for the year was £71,088 (2022 - deficit £232,492), which included non-admissions related grants and donations of £555,003 (2022 - £130,193) as shown in Note 4.

The unrestricted endowment fund (comprised of Heritage Assets) at 31 December 2023 was valued at £10,088,916 (2022 - £10,088,916). The Endowment Fund, established in 2015 was valued at £1,794,247 at 31 December 2023 (2022 - £2,764,198). Additions of £1,441,627 were made to and £396,264 has been used from the restricted fund during the year leaving a balance at 31 December 2023 of £2,010,197 (2022 - £964,834).

There are £11,501,050 (2022 - £11,501,050) of heritage works of art which are maintained and displayed for the public benefit. These were last valued during 2016. These assets represent a small proportion of the works of art made available by the Trust for the public benefit, the rest of which are loaned to the Trust from the estate of the 7[th ] Earl of Harewood, other Lascelles family trusts and family member.

TRUSTEES’ REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF HAREWOOD HOUSE TRUST LIMITED (CONTINUED)

C – Investment Policy & Investment Performance

The power to appoint investment managers is reserved to the Board of Trustees on the recommendation of the Finance & General Purposes Committee. The latter has responsibility for monitoring investment managers and for conducting a review of investment performance.

Following the creation of the Endowment Fund in December 2015, Cazenove Capital Limited were appointed investment managers in 2016 and the funds were invested in accordance with the investment policy and objectives.

The investment objective for the Trust’s Endowment Fund is to maximise income to support the ongoing activities of the Trust whilst maintaining the value of the capital. This involves an acceptance of medium to high risk and is likely to mean that the capital value will fluctuate.

The investment objective for the Trust’s Capital & Projects fund is to ensure assets are readily available to meet planned, and any emergency, capital and project costs and is held in cash.

The investment objective for the Trust’s short-term reserves, also held in cash, is to preserve the capital value with a minimum level of risk. Assets should be readily available to meet unanticipated cash flow requirements.

The Finance & General Purposes Committee regularly review performance with the investment managers. The Committee was satisfied overall with the performance of the investment portfolio during the year, taking account of the general market uncertainties.

In 2023 dividends and interest were received from the fund of £101,084 (2022 - £106,742).

D – Reserves Policy

Harewood House Trust Limited is reliant on the following sources of income:

• Donations and admissions income from visitors and from Harewood House Trust members

• Investment income generated from the Endowment Fund (which had a capital value of £2.5m at 31 December 2023)

• Profits generated by Harewood House Trading through events facility fees, catering, retail and other non-primary purpose income.

• Other sponsorship, grant and donation income.

As at 31 December 2023, the Trust had total funds of £17,951,656 (2022 - £17,880,568). This includes a restricted Endowment Fund of £1,794,247 (2022 - £2,764,198). The reserves shown as an unrestricted endowment fund of £10,088,916 could only be realised by disposing of the Trust’s tangible fixed assets (including heritage assets).

The Trustees have reviewed the circumstances of the Trust and consider that it has access to adequate resources to be able to fund its operations for the foreseeable future. However, to reduce reliance on related party support, the Trustees have a target to maintain free reserves of at least one fifth of budgeted visitor admissions income to enable the Trust to deal with fluctuations in income levels. At 31 December 2023, the Trust had free reserves of £nil (2022 - £nil), against a target of £393,395 (2022 - £412,724).

TRUSTEES’ REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF HAREWOOD HOUSE TRUST LIMITED (CONTINUED)

E –Going Concern

The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis. The Trustees have reviewed cash flow forecasts for a period of at least one year from the date of signing these financial statements and considered appropriate downside sensitivities. Given the seasonal and economic challenges facing the organisation and sector, post year end confirmation has been received that the endowment fund can be drawn down as required. The release of the investment is in order to reduce reliance on expensive overdraft arrangements and to bridge any operational funding gaps whilst the organisation undergoes significant capital developments planned for the site. Having considered the forecasts, the Trustees are satisfied that liabilities can be met as they fall due and there is sufficient headroom in the forecasts that the use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

F – Principal Risks and Uncertainties

The Trustees continually assess the risks to which the charity is exposed and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate those risks and also to minimise or manage any potential impact on the Trust should those risks materialise. The principal risks and uncertainties identified are shown below, with actions to address those risks. The Trust’s Risk Register is reviewed as an ongoing agenda point for Executive Team Meetings and Trustee Committee meetings.

Risk of damage or loss to the House & Collections

The Trust has put in place and regularly reviews and updates: comprehensive security systems; systems designed to prevent and detect potential damage in particular to the House and its collections by fire, flood or other peril; emergency disaster and evacuation plans; expert advised care, maintenance and restoration plans. Insurance cover is in place and regularly reviewed to ensure that it remains appropriate.

Reputational and public liability risks

There are potentially serious reputational impacts (including reduced visitor numbers or event bookings; disruption to opening; prosecutions or fines) resulting from an incident, accident or general poor performance concerning either the Trust’s own operations or a third party hosted event. The Trust’s approach to addressing these risks includes: health & safety systems and procedures; staff training; a focus on the management and maintenance of the physical areas open to visitors; close monitoring of the outsourced catering partners (until October 2023); careful management of third party event contracts; proactive public relations plans in the event of an incident; seeking and monitoring feedback from visitors: and maintaining public liability insurance

HAREWOOD HOUSE TRUST LIMITED ~~oe~~

TRUSTEES’ REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF HAREWOOD HOUSE TRUST LIMITED (CONTINUED)

F – Principal Risks and Uncertainties (continued)

Economic risks

Income levels are strongly impacted by visitor and membership numbers, which in turn are affected by weather and the economic climate. The Trust continues to develop, improve and monitor the visitor offer and seek ways to mitigate the risk of reliance on visitors by diversifying income streams from Trading and Fundraising. Financial risks from running events have been effectively transferred to third parties as the Trust receives a facility fee for externally organised events at Harewood. The establishment of the Endowment Fund in 2015 helps provide additional income to contribute towards the Trust’s operational revenue. The Trust will increasingly seek opportunities for grant funding in order to reduce reliance on support from the Harewood Estate and/or family members.

The Trust is also exposed to price or liquidity risk through changes in interest rates and to the credit risk of the securities it holds. Equity holdings within the investment portfolio are subject to market volatilities. The Trustees have appointed qualified investment managers to manage these risks.

Conflicts of interest risks

The necessarily close relationship of the Trust with the Harewood Estate and related family members brings risks of conflict of interest with family Trustees. Actions taken to address these risks include: formal agreements to govern the relationship and transactions between the Trust and Estate; maintaining a conflicts of interest register; maintaining detailed records of transactions between the Trust, Estate and family members which are reviewed by independent Trustees on the Finance & General Purposes Committee; an employee Whistleblowing Policy; ensuring independent Trustees take decisions on any matters with a potential conflict; and receiving ongoing guidance from legal advisers and formal loan agreements for works of art placed on loan by the Lascelles family.

In order to indemnify the Trustees against the consequences of neglect or default on their part, the Charity has purchased indemnity insurance.

G – Plans for future periods

Priorities and highlights for 2024 include:

• Submitting planning permission for the new adventure play, which should have a significant impact on membership and income generation, with plenty of recent examples in the industry to reinforce that assumption. Following the completion of the new adventure play area, attention will shift to the new South Garden (former Bird Garden) and Bakehouse planning application.

• Our first Spring Artisan Market will kick-start the main season with 4000 visitors attending and will be closely followed with a collection-based, Colours Uncovered with an Easter family-friendly offer, part sponsored by ethical chocolate brand, Play by Choc.

• The Arts Council Harewood Biennial, Create/ Elevate will follow in June, with strong PR and critical appeal anticipated. The associated and externally funded Make It Harewood Festival will run cocurrently over three summer holiday weekends, with a focus on craft, food and music.

• In anticipation of some disruption to the current adventure play during the build phase, we will be working with brilliant creatives, Wild Rumpus to create an interactive, temporary Playscape on the South Front of the house to run across the whole summer - https://wildrumpus.org.uk/

• The return of the award-winning Studio McGuire in a second iteration of Night at a Mansion at Christmas, will undoubtedly be universally popular and should bolster admission and membership income at the end of the year - https://www.studiomcguire.com/harewoodhouse

• Progress has been made against the Heritage Fund supported digital project, with web design agencies to be interviewed in March. The new website, with an improved UX, should lead to better ticket sales, member conversion and online experience overall.

• We continue to build the family offer with Under 5 Fridays and a rollout of parent drop-off school holiday clubs, following a successful trial at February half-term.

2024 exhibition programme

David Harewood: What’s in a Name?

To 3 March 2024

Following the Christmas period, we reopened our exhibition which focuses on the celebrated actor and writer David Harewood.

Colours Uncovered

22 March - 2 June 2024

Harewood House commenced its 2024 programme with Colours Uncovered. This accessible new exhibition explores the history and science of colours. Using a selection of objects and artworks from the Harewood House collection, it examines what colours can tell us about the history of civilisation, scientific discovery and society from the 1500s to today.

Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities

The Trustees, who are also directors of Harewood House 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 regulations.

Company law requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charitable company and the group and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable group for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:

• select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

• observe the methods and principles in Charities SORP (FRS102);

• make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

• state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

• prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charitable company will continue in business.

The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charitable company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charitable company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charitable company and the group and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Statement as to Disclosure of Information to Auditors

So far as the Trustees are aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the charitable company's auditors are unaware, and each Trustee has taken all the steps that they ought to have taken as a Trustee in order to make themselves aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the charitable company's auditors are aware of that information.

The Trustees’ report, including a strategic report, were approved by order of the Board of Trustees on 31 October 2024 and signed on their behalf by:

AUDITOR’S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF HAREWOOD HOUSE TRUST LIMITED

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of Harewood House Trust Limited (the ‘parent charitable company’) and its subsidiary, Harewood House Trading Limited (the ‘group’), for the year ended 31 December 2023 which comprise the consolidated statement of financial activities incorporating the income and expenditure account, the consolidated balance sheet, the company balance sheet, the consolidated statement of cash flows and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion the financial statements:

• give a true and fair view of the state of the affairs of the group and the parent charitable company as at 31 December 2023 and of the group’s incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for the year then ended;

• have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and

• have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006,

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the group and parent charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the group or the parent charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information; we are required to report that fact.

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

• the information given in the Trustees’ Annual Report which includes the Directors’ Report and the Strategic Report for the financial year for which the financial statements are prepared is consistent with the financial statements; and

• the Trustees’ Annual Report which includes the Directors’ Report and the Strategic Report has been prepared in accordance with applicable legal requirements.

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the group and parent charitable company and their environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees’ Annual Report and Strategic Report.

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Companies Act 2006 require us to report to you if, in our opinion:

• adequate accounting records have not been kept by the parent charitable company, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us; or

• the parent charitable company’s financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or

• certain disclosures of trustees’ remuneration specified by law are not made; or

• we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities set out on page 13, the trustees (who are also the directors of the parent charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of the financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the group and the parent charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the group or the parent charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed as auditors under the Companies Act 2006 and report in accordance with regulations made under those Acts.

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the group and parent financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The specific procedures for this engagement and the extent to which these are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud are detailed below.

Identifying and assessing risks related to irregularities:

We assessed the susceptibility of the group and parent charitable company’s financial statements to material misstatement and how fraud might occur, including through discussions with the trustees, discussions within our audit team planning meeting, updating our record of internal controls and ensuring these controls operated as intended. We evaluated possible incentives and opportunities for fraudulent manipulation of the financial statements. We identified laws and regulations that are of significance in the context of the group and parent charitable company by discussions with trustees and updating our understanding of the sector in which the group and parent charitable company operate.

Laws and regulations of direct significance in the context of the group and parent charitable company include The Companies Act 2006 and guidance issued by the Charity Commission for England and Wales.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements (continued)

Audit response to risks identified:

We considered the extent of compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our audit procedures on the related financial statement items including a review of financial statement disclosures. We reviewed the parent charitable company’s records of breaches of laws and regulations, minutes of meetings and correspondence with relevant authorities to identify potential material misstatements arising. We discussed the parent charitable company’s policies and procedures for compliance with laws and regulations with members of management responsible for compliance.

During the planning meeting with the audit team, the engagement partner drew attention to the key areas which might involve non-compliance with laws and regulations or fraud. We enquired of management whether they were aware of any instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations or knowledge of any actual, suspected or alleged fraud. We addressed the risk of fraud through management override of controls by testing the appropriateness of journal entries and identifying any significant transactions that were unusual or outside the normal course of business. We assessed whether judgements made in making accounting estimates gave rise to a possible indication of management bias. At the completion stage of the audit, the engagement partner’s review included ensuring that the team had approached their work with appropriate professional scepticism and thus the capacity to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations and fraud.

There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and the further removed noncompliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it. Also, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion.

A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor’s report.

1 Company information

The company is a registered charity, number 517753 and a company limited by guarantee, registered number 02004021, which is incorporated and domiciled in the UK. The address of the registered office is Harewood House, Harewood, Leeds, LS17 9LG.

2 Accounting policies

(a) Basis of preparation

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities Statement of Recommended Practice applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (effective 1 January 2015) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006 as modified by the inclusion of fixed assets at market value.

Harewood House Trust Limited 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 notes.

These financial statements consolidate the financial statement of financial activities and the balance sheet of the charity and its group undertakings. The results are consolidated on a line-by-line basis. No separate statement of financial activity have been presented for the charity alone as permitted by section 408 Companies Act 2006. The group accounts comply with the Charities Act 2011.

(b) Going concern

The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis. The Trustees have reviewed cash flow forecasts for a period of at least one year from the date of signing these financial statements and considered appropriate downside sensitivities. Given the seasonal and economic challenges facing the organisation and sector, post year end confirmation has been received that the endowment fund can be drawn down as required. The release of the investment is in order to reduce reliance on expensive overdraft arrangements and to bridge any operational funding gaps whilst the organisation undergoes significant capital developments planned for the site. Having considered the forecasts, the Trustees are satisfied that liabilities can be met as they fall due and there is sufficient headroom in the forecasts that the use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Support costs are allocated to the activity costs on a basis which is consistent with the direct costs charged to those activities.

The income from Arts Council (MEND) relates to the conservation of Harewood and therefore these funds have been restricted.

The income from the Executors of the 7th Earl of Harewood and subsequent Will trust relates to the conservation of Harewood (£585,339) and ongoing programming (£250,000) and therefore these funds have been restricted.

The Trust benefits greatly from the involvement and contributions of volunteers. In accordance with FRS102 and the Charities SORP (FRS102), the economic contribution of volunteers is not recognised in the accounts.

17 (a) Heritage Assets

The charity holds three categories of heritage assets in support of its charitable objectives, to preserve Harewood House, its ancillary buildings, surroundings and collections for the public benefit.

Heritage building refurbishment

Costs of £2,633,511 are included in the balance sheet, largely relating to the refurbishment of the "Courtyard" stables block in 2005 and 2006. These are recorded at the cost incurred by the charity and are depreciated over periods of 20 and 50 years. The Courtyard is open to visitors to Harewood House, as a café and retail outlet, with an education facility and with function rooms which are available to hire.

All buildings managed by the charity are subject to regular inspection and assessment of maintenance requirements.

The charity was assigned a 99 year lease of Harewood House and the surrounding land from December 1996 which was extended until 2115 in November 2016, but the value of this lease has not been capitalised because of the difficulty in providing a reliable valuation.

Works of art

These consist of certain works of art, furniture and mirrors, most of which were donated to the charity by the 7th Earl of Harewood. The charity also made some purchases. These items are of national significance due to their association with Harewood House.

There have been no Trust purchases or disposals in the last five years.

The Charity holds heritage works of art valued by Christies in 2016 at £11,501,050. The items are deemed to have indeterminate lives and a high residual value so the Trustees do not consider it appropriate to charge depreciation.

The Charity's works of art are displayed within the collections in Harewood House, which are open to the public, and are cared for by the Charity's curatorial team.

Modern and contemporary works of art

This is a category of heritage fixed asset set up in 2022 following the acquisition of works of art for the modern and contemporary collection at Harewood House Trust. The items in this collection are deemed to be part of the heritage assets of the Trust due to their artistic qualities and contributions to knowledge and culture.

The items are deemed to have indeterminate lives and a high residual value so the Trustees do not consider it appropriate to charge depreciation.

The Charity's works of art are displayed within the collections in Harewood House, which are open to the public, and are cared for by the Charity's curatorial team.
