The trustees carefully monitored the progre55 of these projects. as well a5 Other donations paid, during the year. Investment policy and performance The charit¢s investment powers are prescribed in the trust deed. The deed gives the trustees very wide powers of investment and the investment policy of preSe￿ing the real value of the trust fund falls within them. The trustees have set a policy that the expendable endowment should be invested to maximise the total return (capital growth plus income) with a broad low to medium level of risk. The income from inve5tment5 for the year was £198.93412023- £305.299)- The figure for the prior year was unusually high as a result of a special dividend received from the charity's material investment in Caledonia Investments plc in the year. It is expected that income will be more stable in future years. The trustees have the power to spend the expendable endowment as necessary. No transfers were made during the flnanclal year.

Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of The Elizabeth Cayzer Charitable Trust (‘the Trust’)

I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Trust for the year ended 31 March 2024.

As the charity trustees of the trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’). You are satisfied that an audit is not required for this year under charity law and that an independent examination is needed.

I report in respect of my examination of the trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

An independent examination does not involve gathering all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently does not cover all the matters that an auditor considers in giving their opinion on the accounts. The planning and conduct of an audit goes beyond the limited assurance that an independent examination can provide. Consequently, I express no opinion as to whether the accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and my report is limited to those specific matters set out in the independent examiner’s statement.

Independent examiner’s statement

I am qualified to undertake the examination by being a qualified member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales.

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a ‘true and fair view’ which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or

  4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).

I have no concerns and have come across no matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
