Having assessed the Trust's financial position and plans for the foreseeable future, the Truslees are satisfied that il remains appropriate to prepare the financial statements on the going concem basis. The Twstees have reviewed the Trust's investment perfomiance Sin￿ the end of the financial year and seen material falls in our investments in line with global markets.

It Is the policy of the TTUStees to approve grants for payment over a period of years, subject to the futfilment of certain conditions over the life of the grant. Commitments to be paid within 12 months are accwed in the accounts. The need for unrestricted income funds will vary from year to year and the Trustees will continue to review the position. At the balance sheet date, the Trustees are aware of the balance on both unrestricted funds and the expendable endowment. As agreed. and planned. any grants that cannot be paid from unrestricted income will be paid from the expendable endowment. As at 5 April 2022, the Trust held total funds of £22.71m (2021: £21.62m) which includes expendable endowment of £22.71 m (2021: £21.47m). Having assessed the Trust's financial position and plans for the foreseeable future, the trustees are not aware of any material uncertainties that would prevent the financial statements from being prepared on a going concern basis. Rewt and AcwJnts-5Awl 2022 THE MARK LEONARD TRUST Investment Powers, Policy and Performance The Trust Deed empowers the Trustees to appoint investment advisers who have discretion to invest the funds of the Trust within guidelines established by the Trustees. In April 2022, the Trustees recelved the Butler-sloss Judgment from the Hlgh Court following their legal efforts to clarify Trustees, investment duties. The judgment provided that much needed clarity, but also gave the Trustees pemilssion to adopt a new investment policy statement. The investment policy statement allows the Trustees to align their investments with the temperature goals of the Paris Agreement through incremental reductions in the portfolio's attributed greenhouse gas emissions. The Trustees are in discussions with the Trust's officers to implement the policy The Trustees will regularly meet the investment managers to discuss implementstion of the policy, strategy and review perfomianc8. Trustees already consider non-Paris aligned investments conflict with Trusfs charitable purposes. At future investment meetings, trustees will continue to identify other investment dasseslsectors which conflict with the Trust's work and balance potential Conflicts with factors such as financial return and moral considerations. The Trustees are committed to using some of the Trusfs expendable endowment for °Impact° investing that will not only result in a financial return, but also produce social and environmental benefits that accord with the Trust's objectives. Initially. focus was on four different sectors: forestry, microfinance in developing countries. renewable energy and clean technology infrastructure and this was extended to include social impact, The Trustee5 are interested in sharing their experience in impact investing with olher investors to improve their own knowledge in these areas. and also in encouraging more investors lo adopt the same approach. A specialist has been appointed by the trustees as adviser on investment opportunlties In thls field. During the year the return on the dlscretionary portfolio was 10.30A, over-performing the benchmark of 9.10￿. The Trust is a signatory to Divest Invest, whith commits the Trustees to sell any shares in fossil fuel holdings and invest a proportion of the endowment in 'dimate solutions,, such as renewable energy. energy efficiency and clean tech. This decision has not had a detrimenlal financial impact on the value of the Trust's investment portfolio. Risk Assessment The Trustees have examined the major strategic. buslness and operational rlsks to which the Trust may be exposed. Through the joint office of the Sainsbury Family Charitable Trusts, adequate systems are in place to manage such potential risks as the Trustees have identified. The Trustees continue to be vigilant and to keep processes under review. The Trustees Identified the uncertainty of financial retums to constitute the charity's major financial risk. This is mitigated by having a diversified financial portfolio under the management of a major investment house. The Trustees regularly review investment strategy and monitor financial perf0mlan￿. They also operate a grant distribution fomiula which helps to ensure the stability of resources available for grant awards in any gtven year. Another major risk is a misuse of funds by a grantee charity. To mitigate this risk the Trust@es normally restrict grants to charities registered with the UK Charbty Commission or equivalent bodies for charitable purposes. The awards are made following a thorough assessment and R8portand kn￿￿￿-S April 2022 THE MARK LEONARD TRUST grants are regularly monitored; multi-year grants are paid only on receipt of satisfactory progress reports. Organisation The Trust Is one of the Sainsbury Famlly Charltable Trusts (SFCT). whlch share a common administration. Trustees are appointed by existing Trustees and are provided with relevant infomiation relating to their responsibilit18s as Trustees. They are responsible for the overall direction and supervision of The Mark Leonard Trust; they set the Trusfs strategy, review proposals and approve grants. The Trustees delegate day-to-day operations to the Trust's Lead Executive, Mark Woodruff, and Executive, Sian Ferguson. Trustees are aware of the Charity Govemance Code published in 2017 (updated in March 2021) which sets out the principles and recommended practice for good g0Veman￿ within the sector. The Charity has reviewed its govemance arrangements against the principles within tho code and believes that it is compliant with the code whilst maintaining its need to operate its gov8manc8 efficiently. The remuneration of the senior staff (including key management personnel) is reviewed by the Trustees on an annual basis taking into account the requirements of their role and perfomiance during the year. From tim8 to tim8 th8 SFCT Management Committee benchmark5 pay levels against the comparable positions in similar organisations. The Committee completed a full reward evaluation process during 202112022, in order to ensure that the Trusts fully meet their responsibilities and aspirations for fair and equal pay for employees. The Trustees are fully aware of the requirements and duties set out in the Charities (Protection and Social Investment) Act 2016. The Trust does not raise funds from the public and as such has no fundraising activities requiring disclosure under Sl 62A of the Charities Act 2011. The income of the Trust is not bound by any regulatory scheme. and the Trust does not consider it necessary to comply wilh any voluntary code of practice relating to fundraising. We have received no complaints in relation to any fundraising adivities. As we do not approach individuals for Ihe purpose of raising funds. we do not have specific requirements related to fundraising activities. nor do we consider It necessary to design specific procedures to monitor such activities. GRANTS APPROVED PORTFOLIO OF VENTURES - £5.200 sin￿ 2011 the Trustees have been realising their long-temi aim to provide grants to fewer charities in their priority areas, but at a higher level of funding than previously, towards deeper organisational development. greaterfinancial sustainability and wider impact. They have selected organisations that can see themselves as ventures in which the Mark Leonard Trust is investing, rather than slmply as recipients of revenue grants. Report and Ac4>JLsn15-5 April 2022 THE MARK LEONARD TRUST Typically, a grant of up to five years is offered, backed up with intensive involvement by the Trust's executives with the charity's board, as well as with senior managers and work delivery. Each year as needed, Trustees also provide these ventures with further consultancy, problem-solving or technical support. Drawing on the example of other fomis of venture philanthropy and development investment and maximising the power of the group as it works together, the Chief Executives and other managers meet for mutual 5UPPOrt, as well as to share learning and address problems in common. In 2021-22 the Portfollo reached ten years of operation. The first five venture5 were Bioregional, Global Action Plan, the Sustainable Restaurants Association, Become, and Just for Kids Law. BioRegional and Global Action Plan exited the portfolio in 2018-19, having achieved agreed development objectives. Orpheus Centre, Paraorchestra and In Place of War. each in the field of Muslc and Social Need, joined the portfolio since th8 original five ventures. to intensify the 'power of the group. model. They have since been joined by the Environmentsl Funders Network. Chefs in School, and Switchback. During the year, the Trustee5 renewed their investment in the Orpheus Centre as part of the portfolio, in the category of Music & Social Need. At the beginning ofthe pandemic. several ventures had projected significant challenges to income from service provision. grants and donations, potentially lasting into 2021-22. In various ways, by reorganisation of services and staff structures, as well as making the case for grants and donations as longer-term investment in charities beyond the pandemic and lockdowns, each succeeded in achieving a positive and better than expected position. This was in no small part due to the 'power of the group, model of the Trust's engagement with the ventures, and the mutual support and knowledge-sharing among the organisations, even across sectors. The ventures working direct in the hospitality industry, in educational settings and with young people at risk experienced exceptional restrictions to their work because of the lockdown of schools and outlets for engagement or training. These challenges continued throughout 2021. In cases where funding 5UPPOrt from other sources during the pandemic was amergency-related and looked to be dosing, a priority of the Portfolio was to assure the ventures of long-tem support and accompanirnent as they manage challenges and build up their work for the future. The Portfolio of Ventures stands alongside the Trustees. other substantial grant-making engagement. the Climate Change Collaboration. Portfolio Consultancy Support - £5,200 Towards Consultancy Support for ventures in 2021122. CLIMATE CHANGE COLLABORATION - £780,794 The Mark Leonard Trust is part of the Climate Change Collaboratlon wlth Iwo other Sainsbury Family Charitable Trusts (The Aurora Trust and the JJ Charitable Trust). During this reporting period the Collaboration reviewed its mission to support efforts which help stabilise global temperatures to 1.5 degrees, restore our natural worEd. and support a regenerative economy. The Trusts aim to support a wide range of approaches and interventions, including strategic communications and campaigns. leglslation, litigation, research, policy work, and investment practice. Rwrt and A¢￿[￿-s4)n12o22 The Trust has been, and continues to be, a key supporter to the global Divest Invest movement, getting private, foundation, faith, pension and sovereign wealth investors to remove fossil fuel investments from their portfolios. Investors with assets under management of over $40.5 trillion have committed not to invest in fossil fuels since 2015. The CCC supports UK Divest (Platfomi. Friends of the Earth Scotland, and Friends of the Earth England, Wales & Northern Ireland) in its leading of divestment campaigning and engagement in the UK. The CCC also continues to support C40's Divest Invest Forum which supports major cities around the world to divest from fossil fuels and support their green economies. In supporting the 'lnvest' side of Divest Invest, the CCC is supporting the Green Finance Institute's Local Climate Bonds campaign. Local climate bonds are financial products which generate funding and allow local people to invest in community decarbonisations projects (i.e. solar panels),. the campaign seeks pledges from local councils to begin issuing climate bonds 18 months after COP26. The CCC provided core funding to the Global Legal Action Network (GLAN) towards its legal focus. GLAN is an organisation seeking to prevent and challenge environmental damage and human rights violations by using international and national legal frameworks. The CCC provided project funding to GLAN to build the evidence base, and eventually a legal case, against organisations and individuals financing and benefitting from the destruction of Barbuda's natural landscape. Recognising the perilous situation facing Amazonian forest communities and the vital role they have in protecting the forest, the Collaboration made three emergency grants this year. Articulation of Indigenous Peoples of Brazil (API8), is challenging two potential laws at the Brazilian Supreme Court that would legally demarcate their territories and enable encroachment on their lands. The other I￿0 grants supported emergency defence funds providing on-the- ground communications and medical equipment to indigenous communities working to stopping the illegal encroachment and deforestation of their territories.
