CHICHESTER CATHEDRAL MILLENNIUM ENDOWMENT TRUST
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2025
The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 5 April 2025. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
The Millennium Endowment Trust was established under a Deed of Trust dated 25th February 1997, amended 17th June 1998 and 12th November 2004, with the aim of raising a substantial Endowment Fund with the object of restoring Chichester Cathedral, its furnishings, ornaments and precincts, and the restoration of the buildings or property belonging to the Dean and Chapter.
Public benefit
The Charities Act 2006 includes the advancement of the Arts, Culture, Heritage or Science as a description of a charitable purpose. As noted in the report the objects of the Trust include the restoration of Chichester Cathedral, its furnishings, ornaments and precincts, and the restoration of the buildings or property belonging to the Dean & Chapter. The building, which is open to the public without charge, is a centre for the religious, artistic and cultural life of the community not only in Chichester, but throughout Sussex and beyond. In addition the Cathedral is a nationally important heritage asset. By raising funds for the work that falls within its objects, the trust is providing a significant benefit to a wide section of the community. The Trustees have paid due regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit.
The auditors, Lewis Brownlee (Chichester) Limited, Chartered Accountants, make no charge for their professional services, a gesture of support that is very much appreciated.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
Fundraising activities
There was a £50,000 legacy bequeathed to the Trust and a £6,252 gift aid claim from 2023/24. To date the Trust has received twenty-seven major donations totalling £3,601,553 which together with other donations, investment income and gains and tax recovered, makes up the endowment fund as shown on page 8 of the accounts.
Investment performance
During the year under review, total Trust funds have increased from £8.6m to £8.7m, during which period one donation of £50,000 was made to the Restoration of Chichester Cathedral (apart from a contribution of £1,000 towards administration).
The Endowment Fund performance has been 1% ahead of the benchmark for the year.
Distribution of Income
At the end of the financial year, a total of £613,725 of funds available for distribution had been accumulated in the accounts, and the Trustees were awaiting a request from the Chichester Cathedral Restoration & Development Trust for funding for a project.
Investment policy and objectives
The Investment Objective is to preserve and grow the capital, consistent with a reasonable level of income that is sustainable and will grow over the long term.
The Trustees intend to invest in a wide range of assets in order to provide diversification and reduce risk. Given the long-term nature of the investment objective, they, however, accept that the prices of such assets may be volatile, and thus there may be periods of time during which the capital values of the Trust's assets may fall.
Generally, the Trustees will invest through collective investment funds.
Income & Expenditure
The Trust continues to hold accumulated income fund in cash or near cash since this money is held ready to be donated towards the restoration of Chichester Cathedral.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2025
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust and constitutes an unincorporated charity.
Recruitment, appointment, induction and training of new trustees
New Trustees receive full information concerning the Trust's activities prior to their appointments. All the current Trustees have knowledge and experience of both charity and investment matters and relevant courses and seminars are advertised to Trustees who are invited to attend
Decision making
Trustees are responsible for the Report and Accounts and direct investment policy and strategy. Having delegated discretionary management to Sarasin & Partners, the trustees meet with them at least twice a year in order to review and discuss progress. Day-to-day decisions are discussed by the Chairman with other Trustees whenever relevant.
Related parties
The Millennium Endowment Trust is closely linked to the Chichester Cathedral Restoration & Development Trust: two Trustees and the staff are common. The Chairman of the Millennium Endowment Trust, however, is not a member of the Restoration & Development Trust. The two Trusts have a similar common purpose of the restoration of the Cathedral and its environs: the Millennium Endowment Trust, however, is distinct in its operation and is intended to provide funds in perpetuity, whereas the Restoration & Development Trust is intended to provide funds for immediate and current work.
Employees
The Trust is administered by a small group of Trustees, with three staff (one of whom is the Director of Fundraising for Chichester Cathedral Restoration & Development Trust) providing the secretarial administration and accounting support. The salary cost is met by the Chichester Cathedral Restoration and Development Trust. During the year the Millennium Endowment Trust paid £1,101 to the Chichester Cathedral Restoration & Development Trust towards the costs of administration and nil was transferred to the Trust.
Risk management
The Trustees have considered the major risks to which the Trust is exposed and have taken steps to mitigate those risks. The trustees maintain cash or near cash in respect of the accumulated income fund so that these funds do not reduce in value and are available when required to be donated for restoration works. The investment assets are held in managed funds designated to meet the objectives of the Trust.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2025
TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITY STATEMENT
The trustees are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales, the Charities Act 2011, Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure, of the charity for that period. In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charity SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE TRUSTEES OF CHICHESTER CATHEDRAL MILLENNIUM ENDOWMENT TRUST
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Chichester Cathedral Millennium Endowment Trust (the 'charity') for the year ended 5 April 2025 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Cash Flow Statement and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the charity's affairs as at 5 April 2025 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC's Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity's ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other information
The trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
the information given in the Report of the Trustees is inconsistent in any material respect with the financial statements; or
-
sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS TO THE TRUSTEES OF CHICHESTER CATHEDRAL MILLENNIUM ENDOWMENT TRUST
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the Trustees' Responsibilities Statement, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements which give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charity's ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
We have been appointed as auditors under Section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue a Report of the Independent Auditors that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:
-
enquiry of management, those charged with governance and the entity's solicitors around actual and potential litigation and claims;
-
enquiry of entity's staff to identify any instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations;
-
reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance;
-
reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations; and
-
auditing the risk of management override of controls including through testing journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, and evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the charity's trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity's trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors' report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity's trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investments which are included at market value, as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.
Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
Expenditure
Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.
Allocation and apportionment of costs
Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
Taxation
The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.
Listed Investments
Listed investments are measured initially at cost and subsequently at fair value.
Fund accounting
Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.
Restricted funds can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for particular restricted purposes.
Endowment funds can only be use for particular restricted purposes relating to the capital element of the asset in question.
Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.
