## **THE SCOTTISH SUBMARINE TRUST**
## **TRUSTEES' REPORT** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021**_
The trustees present their annual report and financial statements 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 financial statements and comply with the charity's governing document, the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005, the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended) and “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) (second edition - October 2019) (effective 1 January 2019).
## **Objectives and activities**
1. The Trustees shall hold funds and assets as may from time to time be comprised in the Trust Property, in trust for the advancement of education and for the advancement of the arts, heritage and culture in Scotland:
1.1 by establishing, operating and promoting a world class Museum and Education Centre in Helensburgh, Scotland, to be known as "The Scottish Submarine Museum" ("the Museum"), which honours the role played by the submarine and sub mariners in securing and maintaining peace and the freedom of the United Kingdom.
1.2 by acquiring by purchase, loan or otherwise, and by exhibiting and maintaining an X51 submarine, or such other submarine or submarines as the Trustees may determine, and other exhibits relevant thereto, at the Museum.
1.3 by erecting and maintaining at the Museum a Memorial to submariners who have lost their lives since 1900.
1.4 by offering and operating high quality education and learning services to school children, community groups and the general public, in particular the inhabitants of Scotland, without distinction of sex or of political, religious or other opinions.
1.5 by stimulating public interest in the Trust Purposes by means of publications, meetings, exhibitions, appeals and other forms of publicity.
1.6 by co operating with other bodies of whatever status to promote the Trust Purposes.
## **Achievements and performance**
In the period March 2020 to March 2021 the centre was forced to close due to Covid. This forced closure came as a devastating blow and curtailed all our plans, momentum and motivation. During the period we retained a part time contractor.
## **Financial review**
The results for the year are detailed in the financial statements attached.
## **Reserves policy**
The reserves at the year end were £24,222 (2020: £80,557) of which £8,000 were unspent restricted funds and £16,222 of unrestricted funds. The charity has continued to operate at a deficit supported by loan finance from the trustee. The charity trustee is focussing on plans to improve the charity's financial position. The reserves policy goal is to maintain reserves at 1-2 months expenditure however, in the short to medium term the trustee aims to improve the deficit position.
## **Going concern**
After making appropriate enquiries, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the Accounting Policies.

## **THE SCOTTISH SUBMARINE TRUST**
## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021**_
## **Risk management**
The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the charity, and are satisfied that systems and procedures are in place to mitigate our exposure to the major risks.
The Trustees have identified three major risks:
## 1. Lack of relationships with Argyll and Bute council and with Creative Scotland
The Trustees have identified that the we have no meaningful relationship with either of these two groups. All attempts to develop relationships have met with muted enthusiasm. We believe its because the centre has the word submarine which is synonymous with the Royal Navy’s presence in Helensburgh and the loaded political bias that brings. This has been a challenge with most visitors and stakeholders which dissolves once they engage and see what we do.
## 2. Financial viability.
The biggest risk is the centre's financial viability. The Trustees have built a low cost financial model for the centre. The centre only requires one person (usually a volunteer) to operate it. The revenue required to cover the base costs for the centre is low, and that revenue is now in part guaranteed with coach visits. The Trustees had plans in place to raise funds to open a commercial kitchen to allow banquets and catered events to be run in the centre, these were stifled when the centre was forced to close due to the pandemic and will be resurrected during the pandemic recovery.
## 3. New Content Development
The Trustees believe that it is important for the centre to continue to develop new exhibits and content. There is a risk that the funds for new content cannot be realised. The Trustees have decided:
a) to intensely fundraise for new funds for content development.
b) to partner with other content owners and use their content solutions.
## **Plans for the future**
The Covid-19 Pandemic forced the Submarine Centre to close for over 18 months. In that time we were fortunate to be able to dramatically cut our costs and to apply for grants which ensured the centre's solvency. We believe that post-Covid the centre has a strong offering due to pre-booked tours and positive volunteers who will help the centre get back on its feet at a time when its stakeholders and constituents need it the most. We will focus on building guaranteed contracted visitor programmes with tour operators and schools and recurring events with a guaranteed income stream. The visitor related events will ensure we cover the costs of operating the centre any surpluses will be invested in new content development.
## **Structure, governance and management**
## **Constitution**
The charity is constituted under a trust deed dated 15 March 2013, was registered as a charity from 16 January 2015 and commenced operations on that date.
The number of Trustees shall not be less than two nor more than five.
## **Trustees**
The trustees who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were:
## **Recruitment and appointment of trustees**

## **Related party relationships**
The charity has a close relationship with The Tower Digital Arts Centre which Brian Keating is a trustee therein. Further details are disclosed in the notes to the accounts.
## **Statement of trustees' responsibilities**
The trustees 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).
The law applicable to charities in Scotland requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that year.
In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to:
- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping sufficient accounting records that 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 Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005, the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended) and the provisions of the trust deed. 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.

## **THE SCOTTISH SUBMARINE TRUST**
## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT**
## **TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE SCOTTISH SUBMARINE TRUST**
I report on the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2021, which are set out on pages 5 to 16.
## **Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner**
The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the terms of the Charities and Trustee Investments (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006. The charity's trustees consider that the audit requirement of Regulation 10(1)(a) to (c) of the 2006 Accounts Regulations does not apply. It is my responsibility to examine the financial statements as required under section 44(1)(c) of the Act and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
## **Basis of independent examiner's statement**
My examination is carried out in accordance with Regulation 11 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the financial statements presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements, and seeks explanations from the trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently I do not express an audit opinion on the view given by the financial statements.
## **Independent examiner's qualified statement**
In connection with my examination, it has come to my attention that:
- (a) The requirement to keep accounting records in accordance with section 44(1)(a) of the 2005 Act and Regulation 4 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations have not been met; and
- (b) In my opinion attention should be drawn to the fact proper accounting records have not been maintained during the period of these accounts which may result in the financial statements not reflecting all the income, expenditure, assets and liabilities relating to the charity.

## **THE SCOTTISH SUBMARINE TRUST**
## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021**_
## **1 Accounting policies**
## **Charity information**
The Scottish Submarine Centre is an unincorporated charity.
## **1.1 Accounting convention**
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's governing document, the Charities and Trustee Investment (Scotland) Act 2005, the Charities Accounts (Scotland) Regulations 2006 (as amended) and “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) (second edition - October 2019)” (effective 1 January 2019). The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.
## **1.2 Going concern**
At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have reviewed the future funding and activities of the charity including the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic. At 31 March 2021 the charity had net current liabilities of £391,930, mainly due to loans provided by Brian Keating, Trustee, to support the development of the museum. There are no obligations on the charity to repay these loans in the short term and Mr Keating will continue to provide support as required. The trustees therefore have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the charity continues to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.
## **1.3 Charitable funds**
General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors or grantors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.
## **1.4 Income**
Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Donated goods, facilities and services are recognised in the period in which it is receivable and to the extent goods have been provided or on completion of the service. The donations are recognised at the value of the gift to the charity, which is based on the open market value.
Grants receivable and sales of services are credited to the Statement of Financial Activities in the year in which they are receivable.
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.

## **THE SCOTTISH SUBMARINE TRUST**
## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021**_
## **1 Accounting policies**
**(Continued)**
## **1.5 Expenditure**
All expenditure is included on an accruals basis and is recognised when there is a legal or constructive obligation to pay for expenditure. All costs have been directly attributed to one of the functional categories of resources expended in the Statement of Financial Activities.
Costs of raising funds are costs incurred in attracting voluntary income, and those incurred in activities that raise funds. Costs of raising funds are costs incurred for the management of the investment portfolio.
Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the charity in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them.
Support costs are those costs incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the Charity. Governance costs are those incurred in connection with administration of the Charity and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements.
## **1.6 Tangible fixed assets**
Tangible fixed assets are initially measured at cost and subsequently measured at cost or valuation, net of depreciation and any impairment losses.
Depreciation is recognised so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets less their residual values over their useful lives on the following bases:
|Leasehold land and buildings|4% straight line|
|---|---|
|Plant and equipment|20% straight line|
|Fixtures and fittings|20% straight line|
|Computers|25% straight line|
The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in the statement of financial activities.
## **1.7 Impairment of fixed assets**
At each reporting end date, the charity reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).
## **1.8 Stocks**
Stocks are valued at the lower of cost and net realisable value after making due allowance for obsolete and slow moving stocks. Cost includes all direct costs and an appropriate proportion of fixed and variable overheads.
## **1.9 Cash and cash equivalents**
Cash at bank and in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
## **1.10 Financial instruments**
The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
