**Crosby Hall Educational Trust Trustee's Annual Report For the year ended 31 March 2021** 

The Trustees, who are also Directors for the purposes of the Companies Act, present their annual report and financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the charity's governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard 102 applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland. 

## **Objectives and Activities** 

The objects of the charitable company are the advancement of the education of the public (including in particular those suffering from need, hardship and distress); the promotion of knowledge, understanding and appreciation of the arts; the advancement of religion for the benefit of the public and such other exclusively charitable purposes as the company deems appropriate. 

The aims of the charitable company are to promote the cultural, educational and spiritual development of children, young people and adults, by providing residential courses and facilities in the quiet of the countryside. 

The main focus of our activities remains the education and personal development of the visiting children. It is increasingly recognised that out-of-classoom learning has a valuable role to play in supplementing more traditional school based curricula. Time spent at CHET also benefits children by developing their self-confidence and social skills. 

In setting our objectives and planning our activities the trustees have given careful consideration to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit. 

## **Achievements and Performance** 

During the year the charity was unable to offer a residential educational experience due to the pandemic. A great deal of effort led to schools taking up day visits as soon as was allowed. The feedback has been extremely positive and bookings for the current year leave very few days still available. Our wonderful staff are committed to giving every child a great time and a chance to try out new activities, whether it be rafting,  archery, orienteering, shelter building, photography, or using our challenging adventure course. The children not only benefit individually through their personal development, but also take home with them new social skills and a life enhancing experience to share with others, which stays with them for decades. 

The project to replace the old barn with a splendid new building will greatly enhance opportunities to provide indoor activities. We now have a place that is safe, dry, warm, bright and well furnished. 

Restrictions to school visits meant that the Bursary Fund was only used to support a small handful of families for day visit purposes.  The Bursary Fund is provided by covenants from our CHET friends. 

We were unable to undertake any fundraising.

## **Financial Review** 

The charity's financial position remains strong, despite the impact of the pandemic on trading activity. The General Fund has reduced from £208,225 to £82,311. Much reduced income and expenditure was partly balanced by government funding and furlough payments, leaving a trading deficit of £44,310 and property depreciation of £12,091. This included a number of premises improvements that became possible during lockdown. Replacement of the old barn cost £90,763. Gift Aid of £4,981 and investment income £4,707 was received. 

The Bursary Fund increased from £54,056 to £80,363. 

The Endowment Fund increased from £262,508 to £288,800. 

The charity has a policy of holding a reserve of six months turnover in cash. This reserve is held for reasons of financial prudence. 

The Trustees are confident that the charity is a going concern. No fund or subsidiary is in deficit.

## **Structure, Governance and Management** 

## **Governing Document** 

Crosby Hall Educational Trust is a company limited by guarantee governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association dated 8th March 1988. It is registered with the Charity Commission. There are currently - members (5 in 2020), each of whom agrees to contribute £1 in the event of the charity winding up. 

## **Appointment of trustees** 

As set out in the Articles of Association the trustees are elected by members of the charitable company attending the Annual General Meeting. 

## **Trustee induction and training** 

New trustees undergo an orientation day to brief them on: their legal obligations under charity and company law, the Charity commission guidance on public benefit, and inform them of the content of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the committee and decision-making processes, the business plan and recent financial performance of the charity. During the induction process they meet key employees and other trustees. Trustees are encouraged to attend appropriate external training events where these will facilitate the undertaking of their role. 

## **Organisation** 

The board of trustees, which currently has 6 members, administers the charity. The board normally meets quarterly. A Principal is appointed by the trustees to manage the day to day operations of the charity. To facilitate effective operations the Principal has delegated authority, within the terms of delegation approved by the trustees, for operational matters including finance, employment, and service delivery activity. 

## **Related parties and co-operation with other organisations** 

None of our trustees receive remuneration or other benefit from their work with the charity. Any connection between a trustee or senior manager of the charity and any client or supplier is disclosed to the full board of trustees in the same way as any other contractural relationship with a related party. 

## **Pay policy for senior staff** 

The board of trustees and the senior management team comprise the key management personnel of the charity in charge of directing and controlling, running and operating the charity on a day to day basis. All trustees give of their time freely and no trustee received remuneration in the year. Details of trustees expenses and related party transactions are disclosed in note 16 to the accounts. 

The pay of the senior staff is reviewed annually by trustees excluding the chair. In view of the nature of the charity, the Trustees benchmark against pay levels in other organisations of a similar size run on a voluntary basis.

**Crosby Hall Educational Trust Trustee's Annual Report For the year ended 31 March 2021** 

## **Risk Management** 

The trustees have a risk managment strategy which comprises: 

* an annual review of the principal risks and uncertainties that the charity faces; 

* the establishment of policies, systems and procedures to mitigate those risks identified in the annual review; and 

* the implementation of procedures designed to minimise or manage any potential impact on the charity should those risks materialise. 

The Trustees believe that the financial risk to the charity is minimal at the present time. However, attention also been focused on non-financial risks arising from fire, health and safety of clients, food hygiene. These risks are managed by ensuring accreditation is up to date, having robust policies and procedures in place, and regular awareness training for staff working in these operational areas.

As the charity trustees of Crosby Hall Educational Trust (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 the Company's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Association of Accounting Technicians.

(1) accounting records were not kept in respect of the Crosby Hall Educational Trust 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 accodance 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 (FRS102)). 

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.

**Crosby Hall Educational Trust Notes to the Accounts For the year ended 31 March 2021** 

## **1 Accounting Policies** 

## **1a Basis of preparation** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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 Janaury 2015) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), and the Companies Act 2006 and the UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice as it applies from 1 January 2015. 

Crosby Hall Educational 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 note. 

The accounts 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 Statement of Recommended Practice for Charities applying FRS102 rather than the version of the Statement of Recommended Practice which is referred to in the Regulations but which has since been withdrawn. 

The functional currency used by Crosby Hall Educational Trust is the £ Sterling. 

## **1b. Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis** 

The trustees consider that the accounts should be prepared on the going concern basis as there are no indicators that the charitable company will not be able to continue in operation. 

## **1c. Income** 

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

Income from government and other grants, whether 'capital' grants or 'revenue' grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably and is not deferred. 

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank. 

Dividend income is recognised when the right to receive payment is established, usually when the investment is declared ex-dividend.

## **1d. Deferred income** 

Income from donations and grants, including capital grants are deferred when the following conditions are met: 

a) when donors specify that donations and grants given to the charity must be used in future accounting periods, the income is deferred until those periods 

b) when donors impose conditions which have to be fulfilled before the charity becomes entitled to use such income, the income is deferred and not included in incoming resources until the preconditions for use have been met. 

## **1e. Donated services and facilities** 

Donated professional servies and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item, any conditions associated with the donated item have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and that the economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), the general volunteer time is not recognised and refer to the trustees' annual report for more information about their contribution. 

On receipt, donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt. 

## **1f. Expenditure** 

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings: 

Educational & Personal Development of Children 

a) Costs of raising funds comprise the costs of commercial trading including the bar and coffee lounge and their associated support costs. 

b) Expenditure on charitable activities includes the costs of performances, exhibitions and other educational activites undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs. 

c) Other expenditure represents those items not falling into any other heading. 

Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred.

This fund was created on 31st March 2006 using funds given previously by donors to CHET. It is a type of fund proposed by the Charity Commission's guidance paper CC19. It is partly invested on the stock exchange through the Charities Official Investment Fund (COIF) and partly held on deposit with COIF. The proportions may be varied from time to time by decision of the trustees. The income is applied at the discretion of the trustees for the support of the charitiable company's activities and is therefore treated as unrestricted income.
