Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2021
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
We have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing our aim and objectives and in planning our future activities. In particular, the Trustees consider how planned activities will contribute to the aims and objectives they have set.
From the Objects Clause of the Company's Memorandum of Association:
'To promote for the benefit of the public the preservation and conservation of broadleaved woods and trees in Wales by encouraging better methods of management and the production of timber and wood using species native or traditional to the sites, by methods which do not reduce the scientific, scenic or historic interest present; To advance the education of the public about the ecology, history and silviculture of broadleaved trees and woods'
In implementing its charitable objectives Coed Cymru focuses on the following activities.
1. Woodland Management
Bringing neglected woodlands into management and restoration of conifer plantations within ancient woodland sites to more natural states, by offering advice and ongoing support to woodland owners throughout Wales. Assisting in harvesting and marketing of timber and re-planting. Restoring natural woodland condition and improving the economic value of woodlands by improving timber quality. Inputting into government policy. During the accounting period Coed Cymru has delivered management plans under the Farming Connect programme and undertaken native woodland management programmes under the SMS Rural development programme.
2. Woodland Creation
Developing woodland creation schemes at appropriate scales across regions in Wales. Integrating woodland into farm businesses and expanding opportunities for people in Wales to access woodland and forestry creation. Promoting woodland and forestry design enhancing biodiversity, landscape and archaeological features. Developing forestry options based on carbon and ecosystem services as well as timber.
During 2020 the Charity has separated the delivery of all chargeable work into a wholly controlled trading subsidiary, which is able to operate independently of the charity on commercial terms with its clients, while remaining within the overall ethos of the Charity.
3. Woodlands and People
Recreation and public access form an important part of woodland management and increasing access to economic benefits from woodlands is an important driver for regular thinning and improvement. The Charity directs therefore directs effort towards improving the linkages between timber products using Welsh timber and woodland management and supply, as well as involving a wide range of people in its contractor base, where this is practical to do so.
4. Education and Public Information
Coed Cymru exhibits at local and national shows and events across Wales and on its website. Information is provided about the ecology and history of woodlands and appropriate management methods for Wales.
The Charity undertook the following projects during the accounting period
Rural Communities Development Plan for Wales 2014-2023 comprising:
Integrated Welsh Woodlands
We have put into place delivery mechanisms to in areas supported by the

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2021
project to improve: (a) the condition of Wales' woodland is maintained and enhanced and (b) that woodlands and trees fully realise their potential within the landscape of Wales, to continue to deliver multiple outcomes across social, environmental and economic priorities.
Barrog Project (North Wales)
Working with a group of local farmers comprising the Nant Barrog catchment in North Wales, the project will change land management practices within the catchment to increase attenuation and improve downstream flood risk, through the targeted planting of trees and hedges. The project will invest in tree and hedge planting, riparian fencing and woody debris dams and monitor where practical changes to flow, ecology and the resulting improvements to social and economic well-being of the local residents.
grwpcoed.cymru
We are piloting collaborative actions focussing on the uptake of innovation to increase economic value from woodlands and landscapes containing trees that provide high ecosystem benefits. This will generate income streams that support the sustainable management of natural resources (SMNR) achieving true resilience, economically, environmentally and socially.
Increasing Resilience in Iconic Welsh Woodlands
The project is providing a capital budget for landscape scale investment in Wales' high nature value woodlands to support increased environmental, economic and social resilience by applying the principles of the Sustainable Management of Natural Resources. The project is scoping out investment in tracks, fencing and other works necessary to manage on a more economic basis a cluster of woodlands that have high environmental value, to provide longer term sustainable management.
We are involved in a number of Welsh Government policy groups including the Woodland Strategy Advisory Panel and the post Brexit working groups.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities
The Charity's objectives are 'to promote for the benefit of the public the preservation and conservation of broad leaved woods and trees in Wales by encouraging better methods of management and the production of timber and wood using species native or traditional to the sites, by methods which do not reduce the scientific, scenic or historic interest present'.
While these are challenging times for funding and continuity of the delivery of the Charity's objectives in light of Welsh Government funding withdrawal from the environment sector generally, coupled with and future uncertainty in rural payments, we have significantly increased our outputs and impact on woodland creation and management through the RDP funded projects, and in facilitating increased access for farmers and landowners with smaller mixed woodland schemes to Welsh Governments grant schemes.
In addition to the 4 main RDP projects we provide the following services direct to landowners where the costs of advice and support are covered by grants from Welsh Government to the landowner:
-
Provision of woodland creation plans, where there is a high proportion of native broadleaved woodland particularly where these woodlands fit into wider landscapes, working with adjacent farmers and landowners to deliver projects that provide wide public benefit, including carbon, flood risk, habitat and biodiversity with an economic return to the landowner/local economy
-
Conversion of woodland from plantation to a more natural state, and assisting landowners with the marketing of their timber, tracks and access
-
And the preparation of felling licences for woodland and small forestry parcel on farms, where these fit into wider landscape projects
-
Development of woodland carbon code group scheme and other ecosystems services schemes for generating value
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Principal funding sources
Principal funding sources
The Charity's financial policy is to seek a diversity of sources of funding for key activities. Longer term financial stability is managed as a key risk with the core and project funding stream reviewed on a regular basis to ensure compatibility with long term objectives.
The majority of funding is currently in the form of grants with a small but increasing income from chargeable activities. As the trustees believe that earning chargeable fees and investment income are likely to increase a separate legal structure has been established to separate and maintain appropriate accountability for trading and investment income, and charitable income. This has been described under Structure, Governance and Management.
The Charity will continue to derive its funding from mostly public sources. For the year ended 31st March 2021 the main sources of funding were:
Welsh Government Rural Communities Development Plan
Investment policy and objectives
Under the memorandum and articles of association, the Charity has the power to make any investment which the trustees see fit. The assets of the Charity are available and adequate to meet its obligations for the foreseeable future. Reserves held in accordance with the Reserves Policy are invested prudently balancing risk and return. Grants received in advance are pooled with reserves and invested in secure cash deposit accounts.

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2021
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Reserves policy
Reserves are defined in this policy as the level of unrestricted funds held which are readily available for use in the activities of the Charitable Company. 'Unrestricted' means those funds which can be spent at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the Charity's objects and are not subject to restriction by the grantor.
As at 31st March 2021 the readily available unrestricted funds are referred to as the 'Contingency Reserve' in the Statement of Funds in the Annual Accounts. Trustees may designate part or all unrestricted funds to a particular purpose within the Charity's objectives, which would be shown as 'Designated Funds' in the annual accounts. There are none in the year to 31st March 2021.
Policy for the holding of and the level of reserves:
The level of reserves required should be assessed in relation to the ability of the Charity:
(1) To operate effectively with regard to forecast costs and income.
(2) To continue to deliver activities for between 3 months and one year in the event of a fall in income.
(3) To make adequate provision to cover all liabilities arising in the event of the winding up of the Company. Realisable Fixed Assets and Stocks may be taken into account in this calculation.
Reserves at 31st March 2021
(1) Based on a cash flow forecast taking into account forecast project costs, monthly expenditure and estimated income levels and timing, at least £120,000 is required in reserves to maintain liquidity.
(2) One year's running costs at present levels are forecast at less than £120,000 excluding directly reclaimable project costs under agreed contracts.
(3) In the event of the winding up of the company redundancy costs and other liabilities are estimated to be in the order of £100,000. The Fixed Assets and Stocks balance stands at £90,798 at 31st March 2021.
Based on the above policy the trustees determine that a reasonable level of reserves is between £120,000 and £180,000 as at 31st March 2021. The actual 'Contingency Reserve' balance at 31st March 2021 stands at £63,617.
The Statement of Financial Activities shows a net deficit for the year of £96,884 and the reserves stand at £324,310. The Charity's funds have all been applied in accordance with its objectives. The Charity's assets are all being maintained in the furtherance of these objectives.
Principal funding sources have contributed to key objectives during the year through a system of service level agreements with funding partners and specific project grant applications. Funds are sought to pursue the key activities 1 to 4, described above. Charitable expenditure is allocated closely to the performance of these activities.

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2021
FUTURE PLANS
The Trustees follow a medium term business plan for activities that provide for ongoing achievement of the charitable aims. Woodland management and associated activities are a long-term process and the Charity has sought a funding structure to deliver continuity of support over a number of years.
However, it is recognised that greater uncertainty in availability of current funding sources and increased competition for funds that are available together point to a future that requires new ways of working. To this end, the Trustees are working with Social Business Wales and an external consultancy to identify alternative models for financing Coed Cymru's work.
The substantial interest in woodland creation and management we reported last year has grown further, catalysed by the increasing awareness of climate change and the continuing buoyancy of timber markets. The Charity's objectives for financial sustainability remain focused on diversifying funding sources, to develop investment opportunities for woodland creation and management and to ensure a robust legal structure exists to ensure effective implementation.
The Trustees will ensure that the organisation continues to enhance the services it provides to meet the needs of its members and the general public and in particular provide effective response to post-Brexit scenarios.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
The Charity is a company limited by guarantee. It was incorporated on 28th December 1989 and was registered as a charity on 15th January 1990. Its governing document is the Memorandum and Articles of Association. In the event of the winding up of the company, its members are required to contribute £1.
For the last 30 years the Charity has delivered a range of successful woodland and forestry projects funded by largely by public sources, where these are compatible with the Charities objectives.
The Charity has continued its exploration of a wider range of funding sources for woodland creation and management projects. The considerable increase in interest in woodland carbon last year has grown further and the Charity continued its review of function and structure to manage the risk associated with an increasing proportion of non-grant income and provide future options to receive funding outside reliance on grant as the only funding source. Demand for our advisory services continues to increase, in particular woodland creation schemes and increased harvesting of softwood timber, as market conditions have been favourable. The post-Brexit land management scheme likely to be implemented in Wales has also increased interest in woodland and forestry options from farmers, some of our main beneficiaries. The Trustees decided that, with rising commercial and investment income, a separate structure independent of the Charity has been established, that will operate within the Charity's overall objectives, but could engage if necessary in a wider range of transactions. This will have clear agency and accountability, being able to properly act on behalf of its clients. This separation would ensure that the Charity will continue to be focussed on delivering public benefit.
The trustees are considering any necessary changes to the Charity's governing document. Terms of reference are being drafted between the Charity and the new Commercial Entity, the name of which is Grwp Coed Cymru.
The Charity is continuing to deliver all existing RDP projects and funding contracts without any changes, all within its charitable purposes.

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2021
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Recruitment and appointment of new trustees
The directors of the company are also Charity trustees for the purposes of charity law and under the Company's Articles of Association are known as members of the Executive Committee. Under the Articles of Association all directors must be members of the Charity. One third of the Executive Committee must resign at each Annual General Meeting but may be re-elected. New directors may be appointed by the Executive Committee to hold office until the next Annual General Meeting, where the appointment is ratified. The minimum number of directors is three, the maximum thirteen.
New directors are selected on the basis of their skills and experience in relation to the Charity's objectives. A broad mix on the Executive Committee is sought. In the event of the loss of particular skills due to retirement, individuals with appropriate backgrounds are approached to offer themselves for election to the Committee.
Organisational structure
Coed Cymru Cyf's Executive Committee has 4 current directors. The Committee meets at least four times per year to set and review the strategic direction and policies of the organisation. The board of trustees is being reviewed and expanded following the creation of a new legal structure, with the right balance of skills being sought.
The day to day running of Coed Cymru is delegated to the 'Director' (who is also Company Secretary) who has overall responsibility for ensuring that the Charity delivers the outputs specified and that service level agreements and grant contracts are met.
Induction and training of new trustees
Most new trustees are familiar with the work of Coed Cymru and have ongoing experience in the Charity's work or in a similar field. The opportunity for all new and existing trustees to be updated with the Charity's work through field visits has been interrupted during the Covid pandemic but will be resumed as restrictions on meeting and travel are eased. All new trustees are provided with the Charity's governing documents, the latest annual reports and accounts, the trustees business plan and guidance from the Charity Commission on the duties and responsibilities of trustees.
Related parties
As far as it is complimentary to the Charity's objectives the Charity is guided by local and national policy. The primary geographical area is Wales. Woodland Management in Wales is guided by the Welsh Government's Wales Woodland Strategy, Environment Act and Wellbeing of Future Generations Act which collectively provide high level guidance to Coed Cymru.
It is of benefit to the Charity to have directors with an understanding of and working role in its objectives. Where a director has a link to a funding source or a recipient of services this is properly declared and disclosed in the accounts as a related party transaction.
Risk management
The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the Charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. The major risks to which the Charity is exposed, as identified by the trustees, have been reviewed and systems have been established to mitigate those risks. The creation of a new entity will significantly reduce risk to the Charity resulting from an increase in chargeable services. In particular risks from managing harvesting and planting work, main contract management Health and Safety responsibility, will lie with the new entity and be managed through its processes.
It is, however, recognised that systems can only provide reasonable but not absolute assurance that major risks have been adequately managed.
