Crosby Hall Educational Trust Trustees' Annual Report For the year ended 31 March 2022

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 2022. 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 provided a residential educational experience to about 2,000 children, mainly in school groups supported by their teachers. Due to the pandemic the summer term was restricted to day visits until the end of May. These visits attracted particularly positive feedback, leading to the next two terms and the following year becoming almost fully booked with residential visits. The opening of the new barn was very well received and proved to be a great addition to existing activities. 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, fencing or using our great adventure course. They take home with them new social skills and a life-enhancing experience to share with others, which stays with them for decades.

Through our Bursary Fund we were able to support children from low-income families and young carers from the local area to come to CHET. The Bursary Fund is provided by covenants from our CHET friends.

The number of fund raising events was limited due to the pandemic, though three concerts, the Art Fair and a coffee morning all took place.

Financial Review

The charity's financial position remains strong as we recover from the impact of the pandemic on trading activity. The General Fund has increased from £82,311 to £250,409. Income started to recover in the period, leaving a trading surplus of £119,334 including property depreciation of £24,760. This increased cost included a number of premises improvements that became possible during lockdown. Gift Aid of £3,423 and investment income £4,734 was received.

The Bursary Fund was corrected to from £80,363 to £55,724.

The Endowment Fund increased from £288,800 to £305,320.

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 5 members (5 in 2021), 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, the content of the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the committee and decision-making processes, the business plan and the 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 contractual 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 15 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 Trustees' Annual Report For the year ended 31 March 2022

Risk Management

The trustees have a risk managment strategy which comprises:

The Trustees believe that the financial risk to the charity is minimal at the present time. However, attention has also been focused on non-financial risks arising from fire, health and safety of clients and 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.

Crosby Hall Educational Trust Trustees' Annual Report For the year ended 31 March 2022

Trustees' Responsibilities

The trustees, who are also the directors of Crosby Hall Educational Trust for the purpose of company law, are responsible for preparing the trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

Company law requires the charity 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 of the incoming resources and application or resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charitable company for that year. In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are required to:

1) select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

2) observe the methods and principles on the Charities SORP;

3) make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

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

5) prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will contionue in business.

The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud or other irregularities.

The trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charitable company's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

This report was approved by the board of trustees on 10th October 2022 and signed on their behalf.

Crosby Hall Educational Trust Trustees' Annual Report For the year ended 31 March 2022

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Crosby Hall Educational Trust for the year ended 31 March 2022.

Responsibilities and basis of report

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.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

(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.

page 11

Crosby Hall Educational Trust Notes to the Accounts (cont.) For the year ended 31 March 2022

1 Accounting Policies (cont.)

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 services 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 and 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.

1 Accounting Policies (cont.)

1g. Fund Accounting

All income and expenditure together with gains and losses are allocated to a specific charitable fund.

Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of the charity.

Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose. Further details of designated funds together with their purpose are set out in note 16.

Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be used solely for particular areas of the charity's work or for specific projects being undertaken by the charity. Further details of restricted funds together with their purposes are set out in note 17.

Endowment funds are resources received by the charity which represent capital, which can be held as either a permanent or expendable endowment. Permanent endowments are where the trustees have no power to convert it into income and apply it to the charitable objectives. Expendable endowment is distinguishable from income funds in that there is no requirement to spend or apply the capital unless, or until the trustees decide to do so. Further details of endowment funds together with their purposes are set out in note 18.

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.
