FINANCIAL REVIEW, ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

The Trustees consider that the Charitable Fund's affairs are satisfactory at the year end. Net funds increased during the year to £1,786,725. The charity received income of £172,112 (2020: £96,803) primarily from donations and investment income. The Fund continued to support various charities and educational establishments with grants, donations and fundraising events of £207,000 (2020: £222,746 Fundraising costs were NIL (2020: NIL). The market value of investments increased during the year from £1,648,893 to £1,783,471

In the Trustees' opinion investment income will remain the same or even increase in the current year. Furthermore, there are no plans to sell investments and the Trustees consider the fund will be able to fulfill its aims and objectives in the current year and for the foreseeable future.

Going concern

The Covid 19 Pandemic has meant that events which would normally have been held by the Worshipful Company of Chartered Surveyors and which generated income for the Charity have had to be cancelled Also it had the impact of suppressing the value of the investment portfolio. However due to the continu support of our donors and the Trustees reserves policy as outlined below and after making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to contin in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements.

Reserves Policy

The Trust holds and accumulates capital funds for its purposes, in the context of its objectives as the principal instrument of the charitable giving of the Worshipful Company of Chartered Surveyors, which in common with the Livery movement generally, acts as a custodian and grantor of charitable funds over decades and in many cases, over centuries. In common with this over - arching policy, the Trust approach seeks to grow and sustain giving in the long term.

It is the policy of the Charitable Board to distribute a minimum of 50% of donations and income from fundraising events but to retain sufficient reserves so that investment income from these reserves of £69,819 (2020: £73,933) cover the cost of administering the fund, £41,124 (2020: £35,500).

Having analysed the Fund's responsibilities and ongoing commitments, the Trustees are satisfied that the Fund retains proper reserves to cover expected outlay over the next three years, taking into account expected income and distributions and that the level of reserves is appropriate.

The level of reserves as at 30th September 2021 was £1,786,725 and includes unrestricted free reserve of £1,299,699 and restricted reserves of £487,026.
