Strategic Report
for the Year Ended 31 December 2024


The trustees present their strategic report for the year ended 31 December 2024.

REVIEW OF BUSINESS
The Team's accounts are now managed using the FreeAgent accounting tool supported by John Andrew Chartered Accountants. Among other benefits, this greatly facilitates filing VAT returns and it allows automatic download of all transactions from Barclays, HSBC and now Virgin Bank with whom we opened an account in October 2024. The reason for opening an account with a new bank was the difficulty we experienced with Barclays Bank, and in time we expect to cease banking with Barclays and move to HSBC and Virgin alone.

One of the benefits of banking with Barclays had been their branch in Kirkby Stephen, but this closed in 2024 to be replaced by a Post Office which is just as valuable for paying in cash. Our experience with Virgin has been positive so far and there is the extra benefit of small cash back payments, totalling £4.16 so far! We are considering opening a savings account with Virgin as their interest rates are more competitive than Scottish Widows.

During 2024 the Westmorland Family very kindly offered to convert our cash collections in the form of coins into notes, which improves their access to coins for the tills, significantly eases the paying in process following our cash collections and also acts as another check on our cash count. The exchange of coins for notes has worked very well and the Team continues to benefit from the generous support of the Westmorland Family in many other ways. The permission to collect three times a year at Tebay Services is particularly helpful for the Team's finances.

Overall income in 2024 was healthy at £75,312 which was comfortably over our budgeted income by £7.6K. Bequests, income from collection boxes and service station collections (Tebay) were all slightly higher than expected, and there was a generous December donation. The Team has continued to benefit from the generous support of LDSAMRA in 2024.

In 2025 the distribution of funds from LDSAMRA will be according to a bidding process in which teams will state their income and expenses and then bid for funding to make up any shortfall that they need to achieve their objectives for the next year. This is a new process and we expect to bid for £15K in 2025.

Approximately 38% of the Team's income is in the form of donations and associated Gift Aid, 18% comes from collections at Tebay, 33% from grants (mainly from LDSAMRA) and the rest is from a number of collection boxes, bequests and other sources.

The Team's expenditure during 2024 was £13.5K less than our income, and almost half of this spend was on clothing (32%) and medical equipment (10%). All the other categories of expenditure including depreciation, insurance, heat and light, radio and IT equipment and vehicle maintenance together make up the other 58% of the total, but each category represents only 6% or less of the total. Depreciation of rescue equipment, motor vehicles, improvements to property, plant and machinery and computer equipment accounted for £10K

In the December Committee meeting it was agreed to increase the General Operational Reserve to £150K to more accurately reflect three years' operating cost, and the Fixed Asset Reserve to £36K.

The Team's financial position remains secure and we are in a good position to serve our stakeholders in our part of the country.

Strategic Report
for the Year Ended 31 December 2024


ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Team Leaders Report 2024

The Team received 29 calls for assistance, an increase on 2023's figures of 26%. As usual these were diverse in their nature, including three livestock rescues. The team provided mutual aid to LDSAMRA member teams on eight occasions, including Wasdale, Penrith, Keswick, Kendal, Patterdale and Langdale Ambleside, as well as to bordering Swaledale. There continues to be a great deal of work between teams concerning planning and sharing of information to allow us to operate as safely as possible.

The use of technology to aid communication with the Team and Emergency Services continues to develop, with Sarcall, Resilience Direct (light), and other platforms regularly being used. Airwave, the secure radio system used by the Emergency Services, continues to provide us direct communications across the region with both the calling authorities as well as with other LDSAMRA teams. This continues to be an invaluable resource in areas of poor VHF radio reception. Although the replacement Airwave system is still delayed, Cumbria Police have assured us that they will continue to support us until the change takes place. With the increase in coverage of 3G, 4G and 5G networks, the Team also continues to adopt new technology to provide VOIP communication solutions.

The Team continues to maintain its Water Rescue capability, and undertake accredited training in first aid, driving and technical rope work. The regular review and upgrading of essential equipment continues to ensure it is fit for purpose, and in common with other teams.

The Team, in common with others, is funded by voluntary donations and its Members continue to work diligently to provide the income necessary to maintain effective round-the -clock readiness. The Team relies heavily on the motorway service station collections we are lucky to have access to. Whilst the cost of living is making donating harder, we continue to see support similar to previous years. Prudent financial management allows the Team to maintain a healthy reserve to cover the day-to-day operational expenses should the need arise.

We gratefully acknowledge the assistance of all those who support us through the provision of grants, or by way of individual donation be they financial or in kind. The Team also benefits from its 'Friends of the Team' support group.

The Team has maintained a sound level of skilled members. At the close of the year the Team had 26 Full Team members, 5 in support, and 3 Inductees in training.

It is from the voluntary contributions by way of time, skill, experience and enthusiasm that individual Team member commit that Kirkby Stephen Mountain Rescue is able to achieve its aim to assist the Emergency Services find, treat and evacuate those in distress, in places or situations where specialist support is required.

Lastly we would like to extend our thanks to the friends and family of Members who support the Team, allowing them to respond quickly at any time of day or night.

Notes to the Financial Statements
for the Year Ended 31 December 2024


1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention.

Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation 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 has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the 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.

Tangible fixed assets
Tangible fixed assets for use by the charity are capitalised if they can be used for more than one year. They are valued at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at 25% on reducing balance in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
