The Trustees seek lo ensure sustainability of their grants and therefore. as far as possible, seek to protect the undwtying capital held by the Foundation. In seeking to do this. the Truslees regularly revw the reserves policy of the charity and have developed the reserves policy lo better reflect the Foundation's fotsl Return approach lo reserves management. This polrcy, going forward. will seek to desBJnate elements of the reserves held as described below, in ordei lo improve the visibility of Ihe resilience of the fund5 at their di5P05al. Desi naled Income Fund The Foundation aims to maintain a destgnated inccyne fvnd, consisting of Income Reseryes. funded from the planned di51ribulion from its assets on a lotsl luM basis, wrth a view lo suslaining eharrtable aetNilies for a minimum of six months and a target ol ts¥elve months.

The level ol reserve5 to be retained is subject to annual revie and will be linked to the VJF busines5 plan and budget cycles.

THE VARRIERJONES FOUNDATION IA COMPANY UMITED BY GUARANTEE} TRUSTEES. REPORT The ineome reserves target is based on the charitable aclivrty and other support costs (see note S and 618nd income reserves are anlicipaled to reach target ¢)veT the nexl 12-24 months as the rewsed distri)ulion policy is (teployed. Comment5 on events that have affecled financial perfomwn¢e Income has slrenglhened in the yeaf. wilh both rental income from invesiment prr4)erties and incorne generated from the listed investment portfolK) showing improvement. Investment property income ha5 51renglhened on Ihe eslablishmenl of new leases at the Business Park. secured at market rates, with void5 at Pendrill Court remaining through most of the year. though intecesl has started to pick up wrth a couple ol the smaller unrts recently being let. The market for small lo medium-sized office space in fufal locations remain5 supressed as organisaiions continue to mainiain hybrid I home-wofking approaches. Ihcwgh we are starting to see more interest. and we have also considered our operaling model lo offer more flexible temis to traditional offe leasing. Income from the listed Investment portfolio has recovered well. increasing by 31% over the prior year, reflecting improved dislribulions from equrties and improvements in fixed iw)me.. Operational costs have largety remained slable dufing the yeai. with additional costs of supporting the maintenance of void properties, and unrecoverable Service charges and council tax. being offset by lower than anlicipaled plannin9 fees and bek)w budget pLanned maintenance expendrture. Investment management fees have been k)wer than Ihe previous year tlue to Ihe decreased valLte of the portfolio. Undertying operating costs remain high due lo the ongoing cosls of maintaining and operating sites at Papworth Hall and VOKI units in Pentlril Court. whh shcxjkl redu in the forthcoming year. Distribution velS were signrficanlty reduced as we sought to rebalance Ihe distribulK)ns made to accord better with our lolal return and distributn p)li¢y as we seek to establish a structured basis to ensure lon9-lerm slabilty, whilst maximising impad. The value of the market investment fLbnds held de¢rea$ed by £3.010.374. refle¢tirvJ wthdrawal of fund5 of £SOO.000 and a dKrease in value of £2.510.374. This needs to be considered in the lighl of long-terrn movements in the fund valuatK)n. and the policies being established are such as lo allow elements ol market volatility lo occur Witho disturbing long-temi distributson plans. Investment policy The Tiuslees have discretionary pcFMers lo invest the Foundation's monies in the purchase of investment5 or propety. The Foundation seeks to produce the besl risk adjusted total financial retums from its financial investments. The property assets are actively managed. yielding a rental return and surplus which. together wth return5 generated from the listed inveslment portfolio. are used lo meet the Foundation's Chantab objectives by providing grants to the Papworth Trust and to other charities. The propety portfolKJ is managed to achieve a commeIal rate of retum. whilst preserving the long-tem value of the assets. Listed investmenls are mage{l on a Total Return basis. The investment and distribution objectives, and the asset allocation parameters. are agreed by Ihe Board. through the Inveslment Commrtlee. and encapsulated in a Slalemenl of Investment Policy, which is IMpmented by external rnvestmenl managers. The investment objective is lo maintain the real value of the assets over the lon9 tem. thus preservin9 the purchasing power of distnbul¢ons. The Foundation decreased rts granl lo the Papworth Trust by £455.000 in the year. as the Foundation sought lo rebalance dislributions in line with rts long-term sustainability plan. A small number of other grants were made, in support of Ihe objects of the FOUndatn.
