Objectives and Activities
The purpose of the Woolston Eyes Conservation Group (WECG) is to maintain and enhance the environment of the Woolston Eyes deposit grounds which are owned and managed by Peel Holdings/Manchester Ship Canal Company (the owners). The deposit grounds are classified as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI).
WECG’s main activities are:
1. Habitat Management:
Woolston Eyes SSSI is a nationally important site for its breeding bird assemblage of lowland open waters and their margins, including nationally important numbers of Black-necked Grebe, Gadwall and Pochard. Approximately 25% of the UK population of Black-necked Grebes breed at Woolston. In addition to its ornithological interest, Woolston Eyes is also Cheshire’s premier butterfly site with large numbers of wider countryside species occurring along with notable assemblages of common amphibians.
2. Data Collection
The members and permit holders collect data on the fauna and flora of the site by:
-
Monthly Wetland Bird Surveys from September to April
-
Breeding Bird Surveys between March and July.
-
Bird ringing on Deposit Beds 1 and 3 carried out throughout the year by members of the Merseyside Ringing Group.
-
Regular surveys of butterflies and dragonflies.
-
Occasional surveys of other flora and fauna types, such as moths, beetles, wildflowers and fungi
The data collected is used by the WECG to guide habitat management activity and by Natural England when re-designation of the SSSI status occurs. It also informs the relationship with the owners to ensure that the quality of the habitat is maintained.
3. Visitor Access
The WECG facilitate access to the Reserve by managing a permit system on behalf of the owners. We also provide facilities so that visitors can observe and enjoy the wildlife.
Permit holders pay an annual fee for access to the Reserve of £15 per annum for an individual permit and £25 per annum for a family permit.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Habitat management
The creation of a new wetland on No.4 bed, funded by Natural England, is progressing well. The first cell on the west side of the bed was completed in 2021 and the final cell on the east side is under construction and due for completion in the summer of 2022. Already large numbers of birds have moved in to take advantage of the raised water levels in the western cell.
Another major milestone was when, after years of detailed negotiations, an agreement was reached with Peel Ports on the terms of a twenty-year lease for both Nos.3 and 4 beds. Allied to the existing Memorandum of Understanding with Peel Holdings for the management of No.1 bed, this should secure the future of all the non-operational areas of Woolston Eyes, so that we can continue to improve the habitat for our important populations of birds and other wildlife.
None of the above could have been achieved without the help of so many people and organisations. First and foremost, our thanks must go to Peel Ports and Peel Holdings, without whose consent and support Woolston Eyes as a Nature Reserve simply would not exist. In addition, we are very grateful for the unstinting technical support and advice we have received from the RSPB and NE, which have played a major part in delivering the improvements to the habitat we have seen in recent years.
In addition to these new developments a large amount of the more routine habitat management work has taken place throughout the year which has focused on reed restoration, tree coppicing and maintenance of our grasslands. This work is carried out by RSPB wardens funded by WECG. This year our finances have allowed us to increase the number of wardens employed from a single assistant warden to a full time and part time warden
Annual Report
We published a report on the fauna and flora recorded on the Reserve in 2020. We are very grateful to wildlife artist Colin Woolfe who illustrates our front cover; this year’s painting was of one of the ornithological highlights of the year when, for the first time, several thousand Pink -footed Geese roosted on the Reserve in the winter. The report for 2021 sightings is currently in preparation and will be published in 2022.
Fauna and flora reports from previous years can be found via our website www.woolstoneyes.com. In addition, all the data collected on birds, butterflies and dragonflies are entered into RECORD, a biodiversity information system serving Cheshire, Halton, Warrington and Wirral.
Visitor Access
We saw a significant increase in permit holders in 2021 compared to previous years. Approximately 780 permits were sold compared to 620 in 2020. This increase in permit holders is thought to be due to the increased use of social media to publicise the Reserve and the general increases in public access to the countryside during lockdowns. We are grateful to our permit holders, whose positive support we greatly value and whose permit fees help to fund the habitat management work and provision of visitor facilities, which are at the centre of our committee’s activities.
Due to COVID 19 we did not feel it appropriate to allow any group visits or run any training workshops in 2021. Normally we have strong demand for group visits by organisations such as bird clubs, RSPB groups and the U3A. In recent years we have also run training workshops for members of the local communities and university students on bird, butterfly and dragonfly surveying methods as well as bird ringing demonstrations.
FINANCIAL RESULTS
In 2021 £20,786 was raised from the sale of permits including Gift Aid compared to £16,602 in 2020 reflecting the increase in permit sales.
£274,429 was received from our Countryside Stewardship capital grant of for the development of the new wetland on No.4 bed. Additionally, Country side stewardship grants, totalling £30,422 were received for habitat management work on No.3 and No.4 beds.
The major expenses during the year have been costs of the RSPB wardening services which amount to approximately £30,000 and the contractor costs for the development of No.4 bed which total £277,920
The accounts show that we remain in a sound financial position. At the end of 2021 we have £173,815 cash in the bank. We owe an estimated £126,000 to the RSPB for their services between 2016 to 2021 and allowing for this and other accruals, we have surplus funds of approximately £67,000 at the end of 2021.This is an increase from 2020 when our surplus was £50,853.
The healthy surplus is needed to enable the WECG to meet some significant expenditure commitments in 2022 such as the management of invasive species and the provision of visitor facilities which are required to complete the No.4 bed development.
The groups policy is to hold a surplus of at least £20k which would be intended to deal with any significant unplanned expenditure on our equipment or hides. As the committee comprises all volunteers our financial commitments are relatively small and the committee considers a £20k surplus sufficient to cover any financial risk.

Section C Notes to the accounts (cont)
Note 2 Accounting policies
2.2 INCOME
This standard list of accounting policies has been applied by the charity except for those ticked "No" or "N/a". Where a different or additional policy has been adopted then this is detailed in the box below.
| Recognition of income Settlement of insurance claims Insurance claims are only included in the SoFA when the general income recognition criteria are met (5.10 to 5.12 FRS102 SORP) and are included as an item of other income in the SoFA. Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as income from donations when receivable. Support costs The charity has incurred expenditure on support costs. Volunteer help 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. The value of any voluntary help received is not included in the accounts but is described in the trustees’ annual report. Donated goods are measured at fair value (the amount for which the asset could be exchanged) unless impractical to do so. In the case of performance related grants, income must only be recognised to the extent that the charity has provided the specified goods or services as entitlement to the grant only occurs when the performance related conditions are met (5.16 FRS 102 SORP). Legacies Legacies are included in the SOFA when receipt is probable, that is, when there has been grant of probate, the executors have established that there are sufficient assets in the estate and any conditions attached to the legacy are either within the control of the charity or have been met. Government grants The charity has received government grants in the reporting period Tax reclaims on donations and gifts Gift Aid receivable is included in income when there is a valid declaration from the donor. Any 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. 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. Donated goods Contractual income and performance related grants 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). This is only included in the SoFA once the charity has provided the related goods or services or met the performance related conditions. Income from interest, royalties and dividends This is included in the accounts when receipt is probable and the amount receivable can be measured reliably. Income from membership subscriptions Membership subscriptions received in the nature of a gift are recognised in Donations and Legacies. Membership subscriptions which gives a member the right to buy services or other benefits are recognised as income earned from the provision of goods and services as income from charitable activities. Donated services and facilities that are consumed immediately are recognised as income with an equivalent amount recognised as an expense under the appropriate heading in the SOFA. 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 services and facilities Donated services and facilities are included in the SOFA when received at the value of the gift to the charity provided the value of the gift can be measured reliably. |

| 2.4 ASSETS £250 Intangible fixed assets Heritage assets They are valued at cost. These are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year, and cost at least Redundancy cost 2.3 EXPENDITURE AND LIABILITIES 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. Investment gains and losses The charity accounts for basic financial instruments on initial recognition as per paragraph 11.7 FRS102 SORP. Subsequent measurement is as per paragraphs 11.17 to 11.19, FRS102 SORP. Governance and support costs Support costs have been allocated between governance costs and other support. Governance costs comprise all costs involving public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice. Support costs include central functions and have been allocated to activity cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of resources, eg allocating property costs by floor areas, or per capita, staff costs by the time spent and other costs by their usage. 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 instruments This includes any realised or unrealised gains or losses on the sale of investments and any gain or loss resulting from revaluing investments to market value at the end of the year. Grants with performance conditions Where the charity gives a grant with conditions for its payment being a specific level of service or output to be provided, such grants are only recognised in the SoFA once the recipient of the grant has provided the specified service or output. Grants payable without performance conditions Where there are no conditions attaching to the grant that enables the donor charity to realistically avoid the commitment, a liability for the full funding obligation must be recognised. Stocks and work in progress Stocks held for sale as part of non-charitable trade are measured at the lower or cost or net realisable value. The charity has intangible fixed assets, that is, non-monetary assets that do not have physical substance but are identifiable and are controlled by the charity through custody or legal rights. The amortisation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 9.5 They are valued at cost. 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 depreciation rates and methods used as disclosed in note 9.6.1.4. Tangible fixed assets for use by charity The depreciation rates and methods used are disclosed in note 9.2. Goods or services provided as part of a charitable activity are measured at net realisable value based on the service potential provided by items of stock. Work in progress is valued at cost less any foreseeable loss that is likely to occur on the contract. They are valued at cost. Investments Fixed asset investments in quoted shares, traded bonds and similar investments are valued at initially at cost and subsequently at fair value (their market value) at the year end. The same treatment is applied to unlisted investments unless fair value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investments held for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a maturity date of less than 1 year are treated as current asset investments Current asset investments The charity has has investments which it holds for resale or pending their sale and cash and cash equivalents with a maturity date less than one year. These include cash on deposit and cash equivalents with a maturity date of less than one year held for investment purposes rather than to meet short term cash commitments as they fall due. 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. |
