The National Emergencies Trust INM launched its COVID-19 appeal in March 2020 and UKCF was delighted to work with NET as its main distribution partner, Straight away, our members commenced the distribution of Ptuge amounts of fundlng to communities across the UK. It was an amazing succe55. made even more impressive because teams throughout the network had transitioned from working in comfortable and collegiate offices to working from home, frequently in pretty stressful circumstances, to manage very large volumes of funding. UKCF and the network celebrate the tremendous achievement of distributing £75.6 milllon of NET funding to our communities between March and October 20201£2.6 million of which was distrlbuted in financial year 2019-201.

UKCF'S OBJEcfs, OBJEcfivES AND AcfiviTIES FOR THE PUBLIC BENEFIT During the year, the Board of UKCF has complied with the duty set out in section 17 of the Charitie5 Act 2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission (England and Wales) when reviewlng UKCF'S alms and objective5 and in planning future activitie5. In partlcular. the Board has eonsidered how planned activities will cOntrib￿e to the aims and objectives they have set. The objects of UKCF are.. To promote and improve the efficiency and effectivene55 of community foundations in direct pursuit of their objectives, in such a manner as may be thought fit and in particular by raising and distributing funds for application for the general purposes of such foundations.. To advance the education of the publie in the work of such foundations,. and To promote other charitable purposes of benefit to the community.

Harnessing the scale, impact and passion of our members to raise our profile, reputation and expertise is what UKCF doe5,. bringlng together the rich tapestry of community foundations across the UK to deliver a collective voice for all. Place-based funding is what makes our community foundatlons special. Our members are embedded in their place. understand the Challenges their communities face and

UK COMMUNITY FOUNDATIONS YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021 TRUST£ES' REPORT are tirele55 in their pursuit of better opportunities for all. They pursue long term change for their communities and the people that live there. they can't do thi5 unless they understand the local context, work with others, manage multiple interventions and learn and adapt their approaches over time. Their intervention5 in¢lude making grants to charities and individuals, working in partnership with key stakeholders, encouraging local philanthropy to build endowment. Local philanthropy matters. Building local philanthropy is at the heart of what we do, so we can provide fundirsg to those who need it into the future. The first ¢ommunity foundation was set up in America in 1914, as a way for the Cleveland Trust Company to manage multiple small endowment5 for the beneftt of Cleveland. Like other philanthropists at the time, they had trouble finding beneficiaries for their grant5. and needed to improve efficiency. The solution they came to was to design a model that would look at the root causes of problems in communities rather than being cause specific, engage local people in decision making and be more efficient. This is the model we have today: multlple small endowments, held by community foundation5. Our endowments are crucial to communities as othèr source5 of funding reduce. 3. ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE 2020-2021 was one of the most challenging years UKCF and our members have had. Two weeks into the financial year the scale of the pandemic beeame evident, and the world went into lockdown. This brought a halt to busine55 as Usual as everyone tran51tioned to working from home. Emergency Fundlng In the Pandemlc The National Emergencie5 Trust (NET), one of our strategic partners, responded to the emergency by launching a fundraising appeal. By 18 April NET had raised £8.2 million which UKCF distributed to our members across the UK to support their comrnunities. By J une 2020, we distributed £30 million to members and. by October, £75 million from the NET Coronavirus Appeal. This was distributed by our members to nearly 11,000 charities and community groups acr055 the UK over that period. In addition, we dSstributed grant-funding from the Department of Culture Medla and Sport, Barclays, 31. Direct Line Insurance and the Worshipful Company of Weavers. We also distributed funding from our endowment funds, The Sir George Earle Fund and a Trust Transfer flow through funding from Sick Man's Friend So¢lety. Total funds of £79.5 million io

UK COMMUNITY FOUNDATIONS YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021 TRUSTEES, REPORT were distributed to our members for COVID-19 support and recovery work a¢ros5 2019-20 and 2020-21. The issue5 that received the most fundin8 during the pandemic were food and e55entials, mental health 5UPPOrt, information and advice, and digStal and social isolation. To distrlbute thls amount of fundlng durlng a very short tlmt was an achlevement. Dué to the Speed at which things happened, we werè building the systems for our coronaviru5 appeal programme, while it was underway. This led to our data Capture not being as ac¢urate as is should have been. We werechallengèd by Charitysowhite during the pandemi¢toshowthat we had distributed 20% of our funding to 8AME led groups. We re-analysed thousands of grants against more stringent criteria to establish whether we were close to the benchmark, Once thi5 exercise wa5 completed, it was proved that we had distrSbirted nearly 2tYA of our fundingto BAME led groups. It became apparent through our review that the infrn5tructure for BAME groups was less well develoFed than for other parts of the se¢tor. This led to NET establishing a BAME fund of £1 million, which we were dellghted to manage, to bulld links with BAME infrastructure organisations across the cosjntry to Increase our reach into those Communities. Stafflng We had been fortunate to move to Sharepoint in the period immediately before the lockdown,, this considerably aided our trar¢sition to working from home. However. during the year, we had to furlough two members of staff, who subsèquently both decided notto return to UKCF and unfortunately lost a number of other members of the team. This resulted in considerable pressure on the remaining team to deliver the unprecedented level of funding described above. We arè deeply thankful for their commitment during thi5 difficult time. We updated our staff policies and procedure5 to ensure we were delivering our duty of care to our team. This included the adoption of a mental health wellbeing app which provides range of sUPPOrt and advi￿ to our team tree of charge. We also held training 5e55ions for the team on workin8 from home, Increased our check Ins with Individuals and were flexible for thos• with home schooling or caring responsibilities. Once the immediate emergency passed, we began recruitin8 new team members, using blind récruitment tool called Beapplied and we now have eleven new people in the team. Having made the decision to become a remote organisation, we developed a new induction process and we have recruited from across the country, making our team more li

Most ofthe new team replaced those members who left, but we have three new positions.. a Director of Business Development and External Affairs, a Director of Equity Diversity and Inclusion, and a Head of Digital. Members As wlth all membershlp bodie5, the challenges of managing 47 UK members and three overseas members are not to be underestimated. The pandemic provided opportunltles to increase our 5UPPOrt for members. The NET became our largest donor, providing unPre￿dented fundlng for our members and into their communities. The amount of teamwork required to deliver that programme was significant and the member5 pulled together magnificently. The Senior Leadership Team focussed on improving communication, including a weekly CEO'S update meeting on zoom attended by over 40 community foundations each week. In normal times, the CEOS would get together three or four times a year. $0 the opportunity to speak every week. share challenges and encourage each other. wa5 greatly valued by our members. The Programmes Team held weekly webinars with the grnnts teams across the ne￿ork. and our marketing and comms activity also increased dramatlcally. We provided tree access to our PR agency for any Community foundation r$qulring ¢risls communlcation5. We set up series of "CEOS, Conversations" which provided a confidential 5pèce for CEOS to share what they were most concerned about which was well received. Our leadership programme continued, albeit with a slight delay and in a remote form, and Cohort 3 has now graduated and satisfaction with the programme is high. We held consultatlons with members on the development of the new strategy, and our governance revlew. It Is pleasing to note that engagement has been high, facilitated by online meetings. We have engaged with trustees as well as community foundation staff. The Chair of Trustees has held numerou5 Chairs Webinars to build relationships across the network and to focus on topics of interest. including EDI and philanthropy. This has been important. as we have has many new Chairs of Trustees apF)ointed across the network. PR and Marketlng We appointed a PR agency. PHA. to build our profile and have been successful in appearing in a range of national newspapers and trade press. These included the Independent, the Financial Times, the Mirror, the I, the Charity Times and other5. 12

This is up 172,000 on the same period last year which represents 16% increase. Since January last year our followers on Linkedln have grown by over 160%. Twitter followers have grown by 2.000 Since September 2019 which represents a 4LPA increase. We have published tsvo reports about the work of community foundatlons during the pandemlc, one as an update on the emergency fundin8 and a second sharlng the results of a survey of members, about the future p05t pandemie. We have launched a newwebsite and have updated our branding. Governance During 2020-21, we undertooka governance review, followingthe Charitycommisslon'scode of Governan¢e Framework. with an independent firm, The Connectives, advising us. We held consultation with members, including tru5tee5 of community foundation5. to discuss our challenges and to gather views from the network. The outcome of our work wlth The Connectives and members was a clear desire for a more diverse board of trustees at UKCF, elearer Selection and appointment process for UKCF trustees and a new set of article5. A new Nomination5 Commlttee was put in place to guide us through the trustee reeruitment process. We are required to have trustees from our membership in the majority on our board and have the capacity to appoint independent trustees to make sure the skills on thé board are appropriate for our strategic needs. We held an election at our AGM in October to appoint trustees from the membership, We then began the process to find independent trustees. At our June 2021 meeting six new independent trustee5 were co-opted and will be officially appointed at our AGM in November 2021. We would like to thank The Connertives for their work during this review. We would also like to thank Alan Banes from Howard Kennedy LLP for hls support and guldance In updating our articles and Tom Ward for his generous donation to help fund this 8overnance review. Further information regarding UKCF'S governance 15 provided in section 4 of this report. 13

UK COMMUNITYFOUNDATIONS YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021 TRUSTEES, REPORT IT and Digital Transformatlon We have been working with Digital Wonderlab to develop a new digital transformation strategy. Consultation wlth members ha5 taken place and a skills audit acr055 UKCF has been undertaken. There Is considerable work to do in thi5 area, to improve our use of Salesforce, move into a "digital firsv, mentality and to improve communications betMeen UKCF and members. Data management wa5 highlighted as a weakness during the pandemic and is a priority area to resolve. We have undergone Cyber Essentia15 accreditation and will achieve Cybèr Essentials Plus accreditation by September 2021. We are building a communications hub for member5 and UKCF to access to streamline our multiple communication channels. We have appointed a new Head of Digital who will lead thi5 work on our behalf. The Revltall$in8 Trusts Programme The Revitalising Trusts Programme IRTPI was formed to help struggling trustees of inactive or Inèffective trusts to revitali5e their charitie5 and put their trust assets back to work for the public bènefit in local communitie5. The programme was overséen by a steering group made up of all three organisations involvèd with the programme: The Office for Civil Society Inow Civil Society arsd Youthl/DCMS, The Charity Commi55ion ICC) and UKCF. The steering group ran between January 2018 until the end of March 2021. Ineffective trusts are defined as trusts that are struggling to spend 3LVA of their income over five year peri¢)d. Inactive trust5 are defined as those that have no income or expenditure reported over five year period. The RTP, which began in january 2018 and continues today, seeks to release fund5 from these inactive and ineffectlve trusts in one of several ways. One of these ways, recommended by the CC, Is for the inactive trusY5 capltal to be transferred to the relevant community foundation. This is done through a streamlinéd process to enable funds to be released quickly and spent exactly as they were meant to be - on excellent projects at the heart of their Communities. SSnce its launch in 2018. the programme has revitalised £51.9 milliot) to help good cause5, with £21.3 million revitalised in Year 3 alone. Of this amount, £18.2 million has been transferred to the community foundation network and UKCF. The remainder has been revitalised through modernising the purpose of the relevant trust, with the trustees continuir¢g to provide local management, or the funds have been transferred to another local ¢harity. At the tSme of writing. UKCF and the netsvork has a substantial pipeline to work thr04J8h which we hope will result in an increase In endowment for a number ot foundations. 14

UK COMMUNITY FOUNDATIONS YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021 TRUSTEES, REPORT Towards thé end of 2020-21, progress had been made towards movlng trusts through to the final stages of the programme- when the CC enacts its powers to place UKCF as trustee for those trusts which have not responded. This Is an excitin8 development and we look forward to reporting on this in the next annual report. The RTP Is also developing across the UK, with the programme commencing in Wales. as well as Foundation Scotland and The Community Foundation Northern Ireland establishing their own verslons. UKCF is proud to be supportlng these foundations with this work, The programme has proved to be a major suc¢ess due to the partnership and funding from DCMS, and therefore the CC ènd UKCF have decided to continue with the programme permanently. To fa¢illtste this, UKCF ha5 employed a permanent member of staff to deliver the programme, which was previously delivered by an external consultant, underlying our ¢ommitment to the pr¢gramme overthe long term. UKCF Core Fundlng UKCF'S overall financial posltlon improved during the year, mainly due to increased income from the NET Programme combined with a close focus on costs and the inability to continue with certain projects durlng the pandemic. Whilst 1% was available, we detlded to take contribution of only 0.5% to overheads throughout the NET programme. The total value of grant-making available through the programme made it the largest programme we have ever delivered. and the 0.5% contribution helped to strengthen our finan¢e5 during a difficult time. CS Mott Foundatlon, John Armitage Charitable Trust and CCLA were the largest donors to core Costs and we continue to be very grateful to thesé wonderful organisatlons for thelr ongoing support. Membership Fees Our membership fee5 are based on a percentage of the endowment of each individual community foundation so that community foundations with larger endowments pay higher fees than those with smaller endowment5. This demonstrate5 the values of the network in that larger community foundations help to ensure the prosperity and growth potential of their smaller colleagues. Lower fees are charged to our overseas member5 as they have limited access to mèmbership benefit5 compared to our UK a¢¢redited members. 15

UK COMMUNifi FOUNDATIONS YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021 TRUSTEES. REPORT Membership fees made up 27% of unrestricted income in the year (excluding pass-through income for IT subscriptions). UKCF Endowment As a result of the Revitalising Trusts Programme, UKCF holds £5.2 million12020', £4,0 milllonl In Its own endowment fund. This arises from transfers of inactive or dormant trusts which have a national or UK-wide objective. The endowment from these trust transfers is held by UKCF but the grants from the income generated are made by indivldual community foundations. UKCF receives an annual contribution to overheads for holding and administering the central endowment and the funds have been invested in CCLA COIF funds. The Community First Investment Committee la tommittee of the UKCF Boardl has oversight of the funds but reports regularly to the network. Fundralslng UKCF does not actively fundraise from members of the publle, and no third-party fundraisers are used by the Charity. Donations are. however, gratefully received and accepted. The majority of our fur¢dlng eomes directly from grant5 and other institutional funders. We have not received any complaints in respect of fundraising.

Natlonal Pro8rammeg Over the past year, UKCF has continued to manage many national programmes for government or corporate donors, which are distributed by some or all our members. The grants made in respert of national programmes are delivered by members of the network rather than by UKCF itself. UKCF'S role is to arrange, administer and report on these programmes to the grantors who prefer to have a single point of contact. UKCF has consolidated relatlonshlps with funders and has successfully launched new programmes in additlon to the emergency funding described above, including with Made by Sport and the Departmentfor Dlgital. Culture, Media & Sport. Other programmes came to an end durin8 the year. including The Nationwide programme a5 they moved the programme inhouse.

UK COMMUNITYFOUNDATIONS YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021 TRUSTEES, REPORT 5. INVEsfMENT POLICY UKCF'S investment policy is to build and hold a significant endowment fund, created to support community foundations and their communities now and for generations to come. The Intention is that UKCF will continue to develop its endowment from the transfer of dormant or inactive tru5tS Wlth a national reach. Although legally the endowment could be treated as expendable, it will be held as a long-term capitsl fund in perpetuity, to provide income for current and future grant-making and to contribute to admlnistration cost5. As an Incorporated charity, UKCF is unable legally to hold a permanent endowment. UKCF'S endowment was invested in CCLA COIF funds throughoutthe year and was moved to CCLA'S COIF Ethical fund in July 2021. UKCF operatés a total return policy which enables Investment Managers to invest funds for long-term growth. The objective of the fund is to produce as much total return as possible whilst seeking to maximise the long-term real value of the fund. The Community Flrst Investment Committee la committee of the UKCF Board) has oversight of the funds and meets twice a year. The committee consists of experienced independent investmentfund managers. The committee reports regularly to the membership network. In addition. UKCF has responsibility for the oversight of the Community First Match Fund Challenge endowment which is held by individual community foundations. Thi5 oversight has been delegated to the Community First Investment Committee and is also invested in CCIA COIF funds. 6.

UK COMMUNITY FOUNDATIONS YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021 TRUSTEES. REPORT the income and expenditure required to operate UKCF. In comparison, restricted funds are pass through fund5 which we use for grant-making to our members, and, on very rare occasions. to other organisation5. The only exceptions to this are restricted funds related to the leadership programme and the revitalising trusts programme which d1￿CtlY support aetivites at UKCF. INCOME Total income from grants, donations and subscriptions increased to £83,179k {2020.' £11.897kl. This is due to the NET COVID-19 appeal which generated income of £73,584k in thè year12020'. £2.650kl and led to a record year for UK Community Foundations in terms of income and grant-making. Other large programmes that commenced in the year include Made by Sport and DCMS Match Funding. These replaced programmesthatended inthe prior year INationwide. Building a Stronger Britain Together and Tampon Taxl. Core funding increased Slightly from 2020 and The C S Mott Foundation, the John Armitsge Charitable Trust, and CCLA are to be heartily thanked ft)rtheir generous and continued support of UKCF. Additional income of £599k12020: £441kl Is recognised as related to endowment funds Ithis does not include investment 8ains1. The majority is held as an investment fund, but this also includes investment income which is used to contribute to UKCF overheads and to be used for grant-making. EXPENDITURE Total expenditure increased to £83,027k12020'. £16,533kl, as the result of increased grant- making from the NET programme.

UK COMMUNrrY FOUNDATIONS YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021 TRUSTEES, REPORT RESERVES POLICY During the year the trustees reviewed the reserves policy. following the steps Outlined In the Charity Commission's guidance CC19 (Charity Re5er¥es.' building resilience). This involves.. taking a detailed look at the restrictions on the funds and assets we hold,. understanding the impact of risk; asse55ing the reliability of our sources of income and taking into account future plans. During the current year, this gave us a target range of £300k to £410k for our unrestricted general reseNes1£250k- £340k in 20201. This increase is due to the increase in size of the organi5ation, our commitments going forward and the slight increase in the uncertainty around pro8ramme income in the coming years. For comparison this translates to 3-4 months of unrestricted expenditure. The trustees believe this policy is a sensible balance between the need to maintain a secure long-term financial position and the desire not to hold excessive charitable funds that should be distributed. The trustees review the reserves policy every year. At the balance sheet date, the unrestricted reserves of UKCF were £908k, which includes £495k designated reserves and £413k general funds, just above the top of our range. The 2021-22 budget and projection for 2022-23 includes planned investment of the designated reserves into our new strategy. Designated Funds Total designated funds at the year-end were £495k12020: £36kl. Designated fund5 comprise the following funds set aside by Trustees of UKCF: £104k is set aside for investment in specific strategic projects. This includes work on our digital strategy, setting up the network-wide equity, diversity and Inclusion plan. and various communications and information gathering activities. These activities are vital to ensuring a successful start to our new strategy period. £250k is set aside for the digital transformation project, in particular the development of an improved CRM system for our network. The funds would be spent towards buildlng and implementing the improved System. This spend is expected to be split over the next two years. £141k is set aside for a potential return of funds related to the #iwill programme. This was a matched fund programme and the amount is under review. 21

UK COMMUNITY FOUNDATIONS YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021 TRUSTEES. REPORT Restrirted Funds At 31 March 2021, UKCF held restricted funds of £2,025k {2020: £1,979kl reflecting funds that were received in previous financial years that will be spent on specific projerts in future years. For further detail see note 15 of the financial statements. Endowment Funds Funds transferred through the Revitalising Inactive Trusts programme IRTPI are held as endowment funds. The balance of thi5 fund at the end of the year is £5,247k12020: £4,017kl. The Sir George Earle Charitable Fund. which 15 held as a linked charity (Charity number 1004630-11, makes up the majority of this balance. The proceeds of the endowment funds are used to contribute to UKCF overheads and to provide grants to be made by individual community foundations. UKCF also has a second linked charity,. Aid for the A8ed in Distress ICh8rity number 1004630- 21. The funds for Aid for Aged in Distress are in the process of being transferred and a reasonable estimate of the value of the funds are included in these financial statements at £200k. 8. RISKS The trustees regularly review the major risks to which the charity 15 exposed. Systems and procedures are in place to manage these risks, with regular reports from the CEO at Board meetings. Mitigating actions are planned and prioritised and those with a f inancial implication are taken into account when setting the reserves policy. The key risks are associated with the financial, operational and reputational risks associated with the delivery of UKCF'S objectives. The most significant risk is a decline in income a5 a result of the loss of programmes or core funding grants. To mitigate the risks of a reduction of income, UKCF is actively pursulng new programmes and core funding opportunities. We have a new Director of Business Growth and External Affairs who 15 be8innin8 to build up a pipeline to secure funding for the future. Following the focus on the NET programme, a reduction in income Is expected in 2021-22 and plans have been agreed to enable us to reduce our expenditure as required during this period. In addition. with the transition to a home workSng organisation, there is currently strong focus on risks assoclated with cyber security and delivering our digital transformation project on 22

We will work to make our systems even more secure and provide trainin8 to staff in the first half of 2021-22, and plan to cbtain cyber essentials plus Certification. 9. UKCF GOING CONCERN The trustees have assessed whether the use of the going concern basis is appropriate and have considered possible events or conditions that might cast significant doubt on the ability of the charity to continLte as a going concern. The trustee5 have made this assessment for a period of at least one year from the date of approval of the financial statements. In particular, the trustees have considered the charity's forecasts and projections and have taken account of pressures on donation5 income, The COVID-19 pandemie has been a time of unprecedented grant maklng for UKCF. most notably we became the main distribution partner for the NET COVID-19 appeal alongside funding from other institutions. The core funding contribution from these programmes has enabled us to strengthen our finan¢es during a difficult time to ensure that we can continue to deliver going forward. After making enquiries the trustees have eoneluded that there is a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The Charity, therefore, continues to adopt the going con¢ern basis in preparing its financial statements. 10. PLANS FOR THE FUTURE As discussed in Section l of this report, we have developed a new strategic plan for the next three years.
