## **THE MAGOG TRUST** 

## **REPORT OF THE  DIRECTORS AND TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022** 

The Trustees, who are also directors of the Charity for the purposes of Company Law, present their annual report and the independently examined financial statements for the year ended 31 March 2022. 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice (FRS102), applicable accounting standards and the Companies Act 2006. 

## **Objects of the charity, principal activities and organisation of our work** 

The Charity is constituted as a company limited by guarantee and is, therefore, governed by a memorandum and articles of association. The Charity's object and its principal activity continues to be restoring the major part of its landholding to chalk grassland and woodland open for public amenity with provision for wildlife conservation and sanctuary. The Charity is a registered farmer. 

The Charity is organised so that the Trustees meet regularly to manage its affairs. During the year, day-to-day administration was mainly provided by a single self-employed part-time contractor. All work on the land is carried out by contractors or by volunteers. 

## **Development, activities and achievements during the year** 

During the pandemic, the Magog Down provided a welcome opportunity for Members and Friends, many of them new visitors, to enjoy socially-distanced walks in a very pleasant local environment. With the easing, and subsequent removal of restrictions, visitor numbers have fallen from the peaks seen during the height of the pandemic, but it is pleasing  to note that the Down continues to attract new Friends and the majority of existing ones are renewing their subscriptions. 

This increase in visitors has substantially enhanced the Trust's finances over the past two years which, in turn, has allowed the Trustees to make significant investments for the future. £31,000 has been spent on upgrading the car park, to increase capacity and improve pedestrian safety. A further sum of around £20,000 was applied to the development of a new website and online application process which will make our administration more efficient. 

Our administrator, Miranda Fyfe, stepped down from the role on 31 March. The Trustees are extremely grateful for her devoted and competent service over ten years, a period which saw the number of Members/Friends increase from around 500 to over 3,000. She goes with our thanks and best wishes. 

Barbara Massingham-Stubbs, who undertook our butterfly surveys, also relinquished her role in the year. She has now moved away from the area and the Trustees are very grateful for her time and endeavours over many years. We are pleased to report that two volunteers, who are already involved with the UK Butterfly Monitoring Scheme, will ensure these surveys will continue. 

The Trust lost another stalwart supporter in Novemebr 2021 with the passing of our Vice-President, Joan Barnes. She will be sadly missed. Together with her husband, Ray, she was a prime mover in getting the Trust started more than 30 years ago. Many who knew them both have subscribed to the installation of a memorial bench which is now in place on Shepherd's Walk. 

In January, the Trust became sole trustee of the Stapleford Parish Pit after approval by The Charities Commision. This move had previously received overwhelming support in a village consultation. The Trust has taken over from the Friends of the Parish Pit and will continue to mange it in accordance with the plan drawn up by The Wildlife Trust. 

Looking forward, the website should be live by the time of the AGM and we have a new administrator in situ who is quickly settling into the role. Also, the Trustees have decided to pursue a change in the constitution of the Trust to enable Trustees and related parties to be employed. The running of the organisation is dependent upon a small number of active participants and we find it difficult to replace those who leave. A case in point is the administrator role where it took four months to find a replacement. During that period, Trustees and one relative of a Trustee had to devote a considerable amount of their time to cover the position as best they could. This change will build in greater resilience, flexibility, and allow us to reward efforts over and above the normal course of trustee duties. Even with this change, any such employment will have to be justified and approved by The Charities Commission. A motion to approve this change will be submitted to the Members in due course.

The retirement village proposed for the outskirts of Stapleford received planning approval from the inspector upon appeal. The Trust has agreed to take on the ownership and management of the associated countryside park, to be called Chalk Hill. A plan for its development and management is currently being prepared, with the aim of restoring the land to chalk grassland, similar to the North Down. There is a degree of uncertainty at present because the proposed busway (Cambridgeshire South East Trasnsport Scheme - CSET) is likely to impinge upon the countryside park in a manner yet to be determined. Although the Trust does not see itself as a campaigning organisation, theTrustees are opposed to CSET, principally on the grounds that it will despoil an attractive part of the greenbelt and the view of the landscape from Magog Down. The Trust is supporting the "Better Ways than Busway" campaign group which will oppose CSET at the public enquiry in 2023. 

On a more positive note, the Trustees were pleased to welcome back the running events put on by Stapleford School PTA and the Cambridge University Hare & Hounds, which had been cancelled in previous years due to the pandemic. In addition, two short films were made during the year which involved the Down in some way. We hope to show these at the AGM. There are also plans to plant a small copse of indigenous trees to celebrate the Queen's Platinum Jubilee. 

Following last year's AGM, I was elected Chair and I would like to express my thanks to the other Trustees for their support. Sadly, our new treasurer, Nicholas Cliffe, was forced to retire through ill health before he could properly establish himself in the role. We wish him a full and speedy recovery. I should also like to record the Board's appreciation for the volunteers on the working parties, those on the gate roster and the others who contribute so much to the wellbeing of the Down. 

Finally, as Members will recall from last year's report, Kathleen Foreman gave notice that she will not be seeking re-election when her current term of office comes to an end at the forthcoming AGM. She has served as Chair of the Trust for many years and been a trustee since its inception. Her contribution to the restoration of the land back to chalk downland has been immense and her prescence on the Board will be sorely missed. She leaves with our grateful thanks and best wishes for the future. 

## **Transactions and financial position** 

The Statement of Financial Activities shows a surplus for the year of £87,374 (2021: £161,842), of which £50,227 arose from gains on the Trust's investments (2021: £116,653). 

The underlying result from normal activities was slightly reduced at £37,147 (2021: £45,189), although this was after expenditure on the new website amounting to £21,200 (2021: £nil). 

Total income, at £180,094, was 12% higher than the previous year (2021: £161,142), mainly due to rural grants and farming. Combined income from subscriptions and parking charges remained almost unchanged at £71,254 (2021: £70,893), reflecting the continued high level of visitors during the Covid-19 lockdowns. Farming income increased by 19% to £53,551 (2021: £44,932) due to a combination of crop mix and market prices. 

Total expenditure increased by 23% to £142,947 (2021: £115,953). This was mainly due to the costs incurred on the new website, as already mentioned above. 

## **Tangible fixed assets for use by the charity** 

Details of movements in fixed assets are set out in note 5 to the accounts. All land apart from The Feoffee Field and Jane's Piece is held freehold. There is no leasehold property. 

The Trust holds a parcel of land known as The Feoffee Field on an agricultural tenancy with the Stapleford Feoffee Charity, which runs for a 20 year term until November 2040. 

Jane's Piece is held on a licence, at a peppercorn rental, from the same charity. The acquisition of rights over this land has enabled the Trust to improve access for walkers. 

## **Investments** 

In 2022, total investment income recovered slightly to £18,895 (2021: £17,251), just above our target of £18,000. The market value of our investment portfolio increased by 13% to £770,474 (2021: £682,404).

## **Reserves** 

The present level of income remains adequate to support the current level of normal activity. This excludes funds required for any future major projects or works programme. As such, the Trustees are aware of the need to secure the long-term management of the land and consider that drawing on reserves may be necessary in the medium to long term. The Board of Trustees considers the financial position of the Charity to be satisfactory and its policy is to have cash funds available to meet the foreseeable medium term needs. 

## **Directors and Trustees** 

All Directors of the Company are also Trustees of the Charity, and there are no other Trustees. All of the Trustees named on page 3 served throughout the year unless otherwise indicated. The Board has power to appoint additional Trustees as it considers fit to do so. 

Kathleen Foreman is due to retire by rotation at the forthcoming Annual General Meeting and has decided not to stand for re-election. 

In accordance with the management of any potential conflicts of interest, it is declared that: 

Sara Sayer is a Partner of Birketts LLP, a firm of solicitors used by the Trust. Claire Beale provides ranger services to the Trust on a contract for service of no fixed term. A relative of Christopher Bow provided a small amount of administrative support under a contract for service. 

## **Risk management** 

The Trustees actively review the major risks that the Charity faces on a regular basis and believe that maintaining reserves at current levels, combined with an annual review of the controls over key financial systems, will provide sufficient resources in the event of adverse conditions. The Trustees have also examined operational and business risks faced by the Charity and confirm that they have established systems to mitigate the significant risks. 

## **Trustees' responsibilities in relation to the financial statements** 

The Trustees are required by company law to prepare financial statements for each financial year that give a true and fair view of the financial activities of the Charity and of its financial position at the end of that year. In preparing those financial statements, the Trustees are required to : 

- (a)   select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently 

- (b)   make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent 

- (c)   state whether the policies adopted are in accordance with the Companies Act 2006 and with applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements 

- (d)  prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to assume that the Charity will continue in operation. 

The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity 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 Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. 

## **Independent examination** 

The income and turnover of the Charity are such that a full audit is not required for the current and future years. Tim Phillips, Accountant, examined the accounts for the year ended 31 March 2022, and the Board intend to recommend that Tim Phillips be appointed as Independent Examiner at the Annual General Meeting to be held in October 2022. 

## **Public benefit** 

The Trustees are aware of The Charity Commission's guidance in relation to delivering public benefit. In promoting the conservation of Magog Down and ensuring access to an extensive area of open space, the Trustees consider that they are fulfilling the requirement to deliver a public benefit. The specific areas of activity are detailed on pages 4 and 5 of this report. 

## **Approval** 

The above report has been prepared in accordance with the small companies' regime, Companies Act 2006. It was approved by the Board of Directors and Trustees on                        2022, and signed on its behalf by

Company Number 2426534 

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES** 

I report on the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 March 2022, which are set out on pages 8 to 13. 

## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner** 

The Trustees (who are also directors of the Company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The Trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. 

Having satisfied myself that the Charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to: 

- examine the accounts under sec�on 145 of the 2011 Act 

- to follow the procedures laid down in the General Direc�ons given by The Charity Commissioners (under section 145 (5) (b) of the 2011 Act); and 

and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention. 

## **Basis of independent examiner's report** 

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by The Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the Charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as Trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a "true and fair view" and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention: 

- (1)      which gives me reasonable cause to believe that,  in any material respect, the requirements 

- to keep accoun�ng records in accordance with sec�on 386 of the Companies Act 2006 

- to prepare accounts which accord with the accoun�ng records, comply with the accoun�ng requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statememt of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities 

have not been met; or 

- (2)      to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

## **THE MAGOG TRUST** 

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2022** 

## **1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **1.1 Basis of preparation of accounts** 

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investments which are included at market value. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice (FRS102), applicable accounting standards and the Companies Act 2006. 

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The Trustees have reviewed the current level of funds held and the expected income and expenditure for 12 months from the date of approval of these accounts and regard these as sufficient to justify the going concern basis. 

## **1.2 Incoming resources** 

Income and donations are included in incoming resources when they are receivable, except when the donors specify that they must be used in future accounting periods or donor's conditions have not been fulfilled, then the income is deferred. The income from fundraising ventures is shown gross with the associated costs included in fundraising costs. 

The Trust claims refunds of Income Tax on donations for which it holds a valid Gift Aid declaration for the year in which the money is received. These refunds are included in incoming resources for that year. 

Income received from memberships which give an entitlement to free parking and car parking charges levied on non-member visitors is stated net of Value Added Tax. 

## **1.3 Resources expended** 

Resources expended are included in the Statement of Financial Activities on an accruals basis. 

Expenditure which is directly attributable to specific activities has been included in these cost categories. Where costs are attributable to more than one activity, they have been apportioned across the cost categories on a basis consistent with the use of these resources. 

## **1.4 Finance and operating leases** 

Rentals applicable to operating leases are charged to the Statement of Financial Activities over the period they are incurred. The Trust has no finance leases at present. 

## **1.5 Tangible Fixed Assets** 

Individual fixed assets costing £1,000 or more are capitalised at cost. 

Depreciation is provided on all tangible fixed assets at rates calculated to write off the cost, on a straight line basis, over their expected useful economic lives as follows: 

Downland furniture & fixtures 10% -25% straight line basis Machinery & equipment 25% straight line basis 

No depreciation is provided on freehold land. Improvements in excess of £1,000 carried out on the site are capitalised but not amortised due to their enduring nature and the maintenance programme undertaken by the Trust. The Trustees have reviewed the value of the land and consider that there is no impairment of value for the period ended 31 March 2022. 

## **1.6 Investments** 

Investments are stated at market value at the balance sheet date. The Statement of Financial Activities includes the net gains/(losses) arising on revaluations and disposals throughout the year. 

The Magog Trust Report and Accounts for the year ended 31st March 2022

## **1.7 Taxation** 

As a registered charity, the Trust is exempt from income and corporation tax and can recover tax paid on donations under the Gift Aid scheme. The Trust is also exempt from Capital Gains Tax, so all gains are stated gross. 

The Trust accounts for VAT on its memberships and car parking income. Its other income, apart from a small amount of donations, is derived from farming and associated subsidies. The Trust is therefore able to recover all VAT incurred on its expenditure.
