TRUSTEES REPORT

For the Year Ended 31st March 2021

The trustees present their report and the financial statements for the financial year.

Management and Governance

The charity was established by Trust Deed dated 11th November 1985 and is registered at the Charities Commission under number 1055377.

The trustees who served during the year were Dr N R Grey, Professor M C Grey, R Kadritzke and Rev J Boulton-Reynolds .

The charity is indebted for the continuing voluntary commitment of the trustees.

Objectives and Activities

The main objects of the Trust are to support charitable work throughout the world, in particular, charities with a development and justice focus.

Achievements and performance

Grants of £180,573 much higher than the £108,197 of last year which was lower than the year before (£151,029). This reflected the delayed spending in the first quarter of of 2020 whilst priorities were reassessed due to the Coronavirus pandemic. Then in the 2nd quarter of 2020, the first quarter of the financial year 2020-21, Trustees agreed to a higher than normal level of funding with a focus on supporting communities impacted by the pandemic.

Trustees maintained a focus on the Indian subcontinent and the Middle East where the trustees have first hand experiences of the problems that face these communities. In Rajasthan, India infrastructure projects were postponed or reduced in favour of emergency relief to village communities. Less support was given to girl education because of school closures.

The trustees have continued their investment policy of investing mainly in UK shares offering either good growth prospects or yielding a high income. £6,927 of shares were sold in the year with a realised loss of £48. Because of rising share prices from a low at the beginning of the financial year, only a limited number of shares were sold.

Ethical considerations have dictated that the shares of companies engaged in arms manufacture, oil and mineral extraction or tobacco are not bought.

Financial Review

All funds are unrestricted and have increased by £12,334 in the year to £817,315. In addition to investment income the charity also received £39,874 in voluntary income.

Registered Charity number 1055377

I report on the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31[st] March 2021

Respective responsibilities of the trustees and the examiner

The trustees of the charity are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. They consider the audit requirement of section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (“the Act”) does not apply.

It is my responsibility to:

Basis of Independent Examiner’s report

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes a consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations concerning such matters. The procedures undertaken to 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 accounts.

Independent Examiners Statement

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

i) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respects the requirements

have not been met; and

ii) To which in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
