Achievements and performance

 

Charitable activities

 

The Trust leases out the Glenborrodale Centre to Mr & Mrs Rowntree trading as 'The Ardnamurchan Bunkhouse'. The Centre continues to offer facilities for residential courses to organisations and groups and as such assists in the Trust delivering it's charitable objectives. This arrangement provides the Trust with a guaranteed income without the direct responsibility for operating and maintaining the Centre.

The Trust is currently supporting two local students with bursaries and one person with a monthly contribution towards his accommodation costs in connection with an apprenticeship. During the year the Trust also made a donation of £1,500 to West Ardnamurchan Community Council towards the cost of new equipment for the Children's Play Park in Kilichoan.

BOARD OF TRUSTEES REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTOR'S REPORT) (CONTINUED)

Reserves policy

 

The trustees have identified the level of reserves that are required for the ongoing operation of the charity. The trustees consider that this level of reserves is fully justified given the annual expenditure that may be required to maintain the Glenborrodale Centre and the difficulties being experienced in attracting suitable groups to use the facilities.

 

The charity only has unrestricted funds which can be used at the trustees' discretion. There are no restricted funds or endowment funds.

 

At 31 January 2023 there were no funds in deficit (2022: none).

 

Cash Resources

 

Following the sale of Dale Cottage in 2021 the trustees paid £140,000 to Mr D F Irwin Houston in part repayment of his loan. At 31st January 2023 the balance owing to Mr Irwin Houston was £400,000 (2022 £540,000). This loan is interest free.

 

Principal funding sources

 

The principal funding sources are donations and rental income.

 

The Trust receives continuing financial support from the provision of a loan of £400,000 from D F Irwin Houston. The loan is interest free and it is hoped that the loan will be repaid from the proceeds of the sale of building plots at Ach Na Ha.

 

Investments

 

An important local business is the Ardnamurchan Distillery that commenced operations at Glenmore on Ardnamurchan in 2014. When the distillery was first established The Ardnamurchan Trust received a free allocation of 52,498 B Shares in Adelphi Distillery Limited.

.

More recently the Trust has developed, in conjunction with the Ardnamurchan Distillery, plans for an educational program to teach local young people about the whisky industry. Allied with this program is an agreement with the distillery for the Trust to purchase a freshly distilled cask at cost for each child at the local school reaching the age of ten. When the child reaches the age of 18 then the distillery will repurchase the cask at the then market value thereby providing funds to enable the Trust to support that young person through higher education or further training.

 

No new casks were purchased in 2022/23 so at 31 January 2023 the Ardnamurchan Distillery was holding 9 casks on behalf of the Trust.

Risk management

 

The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charitable company is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.

 

Risks are identified, assessed and controls established throughout the year to ensure that the risks are properly managed.

 

The key controls used by the charity are as follows:

 

 

The trustees are satisfied that the major risks identified have been adequately mitigated where necessary but the board recognises that it must continually review and address these risks to enable the charity to continue in operation.

Plans for future periods

Future plans

 

Through the provision of leases to third parties the charitable company will continue to offer the facilities at the Glenborrodale Centre to groups and organisations for education and training for the foreseeable future.

 

The Trustees are aware that their liquid resources are currently limited but assured that Arndnamurchan Estates Ltd will provide short term interest free finance pending the sale of Dale Cottage, one of the Trust properties. Mr Donald Irwin Houston continues to provide a long term interest free loan.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT
TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE ARDNAMURCHAN TRUST
- 8 -

I report on the financial statements of the charitable company for the year ended 31 January 2023, which are set out on pages 6 to 15.

Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner

The charitable company’s trustees, who are also the directors of The Ardnamurchan Trust for the purposes of company law, 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 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 statement

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

(a)
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
(i)

to keep accounting records in accordance with section 44(1) (a) of the 2005 Act and Regulation 4 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations; and

(ii)

to prepare financial statements which accord with the accounting records and comply with Regulation 8 of the 2006 Accounts Regulations;

have not been met or
(b)

to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.

Accounting policies
Charity information

The Ardnamurchan Trust is a private company limited by guarantee incorporated in Scotland. The registered office is Mingary House, Kilchoan, Acharacle, Argyll, PH36 4LH.

1.1
Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charitable company'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) (effective 1 January 2019)". The charitable company is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

 

The charitable company has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charitable company. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention with the exception of investments which are included at market value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2
Going concern

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charitable company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

1.3
Charitable funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.

 

There are no restricted funds.

1.4
Income
Income is recognised when the charitable company 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 charitable company has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount.

1.5
Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation to committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and had been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to that category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

 

Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.

Accounting policies
(Continued)
- 10 -
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:

Freehold buildings
2% per annum
Property improvements
2% per annum
Fixtures and fittings
15% per annum

Freehold land is not depreciated.

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
Fixed asset investments

Fixed at investments are held at market value

1.8
Impairment of fixed assets

At each reporting end date, the charitable company 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).

1.9
Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

1.10
Financial instruments

The charitable company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

 

Financial instruments are recognised in the charitable company's balance sheet when the charitable company becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

 

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

(Continued)
- 11 -
Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

 

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

 

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charitable company’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

1.11
Taxation

The company is exempt from corporation tax on its charitable activities.

1.12
Employee benefits

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

 

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charitable company is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

2
Critical accounting estimates and judgements

In the application of the charitable company’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

 

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
