THE BOODLES CHARITABLE TRUST

a

Objectives and activities

a. Policies and objectives

In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance ‘Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)’.

The objective of the Trust, as stated in the settlement deed, is to identify and provide funding to charitable causes within the United Kingdom.

b. Activities undertaken to achieve objectives

During the year the Trust has made grants to a number of charitable organisations within the United Kingdom. All activities undertaken have been done so in support of the Trust's principal objectives.

c. Grant-making policies

The Trustees have discretion over where and when grants made. Grants will be made by the Trustees as and when they identify a suitable and deserving cause.

d. Volunteers

The Trust relies on the contribution of its Trustees who provide their services free of charge.

Achievements and performance

a. Review of activites

The Trustees are pleased to report that financial support has been provided to various deserving charitable causes during the year as more fully detailed in the notes to these financial statements. Investment income and donations recognised for the year amounted to £1,249,561 (2024: £1,297,454). Expenditure on charitable activities amount to £872,067 (2024: £1,005,027).

b. Fundraising activities and income generation

The Trustees do not fundraise. The income is derived from its investments and by donations received from Boodle & Dunthorne Limited.

c. Investment policy and performance

The Trustees have appointed and given discretion to Investec Wealth & Management (UK) for the day-to-day management of the investments held by the Trust. Investments are made in accordance with the directions of the Trustees, who control the overall nature of the investment portfolio and who are responsible for the overall financial control of the Trust. The Trustee's investment policy is to seek to enhance the capital value of the portfolio so that in the long term the income and future capital gains will be sufficient to meet the expenditure requirements of the Trust. During the year under review, investments performed favourably.

Financial review

a. Going concern

After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Trust has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies.

a Page 3

THE BOODLES CHARITABLE TRUST

TRUSTEES’ REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2025

b. Reserves policy

It is the policy of the Trust to maintain unrestricted funds, which are free reserves at a level which is sufficient to cover grant making and management and administration costs and which allows the Trust to be managed efficiently. The financial statements show that unrestricted funds at the year-end totalled £5,165,220 (2024: £5,042,254), which equates to approximately five years of grant giving at current levels assuming a worse case scenario where no income is received. At 5 April 2025, unrestricted funds of £37,597 (2024: ENil) were held for the Indian Christian Mission Centre (ICMC). These funds are restricted and will be transferred to ICMC once it is again able to receive international donations under Indian regulations. Until then, the restricted balance will be held securely and not used for any other purpose.

c. Financial risk management objectives and policies

The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Trust is exposed, in particular those related to the operations and finances of the Trust, and are satisfied that systems and procedures are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.

d. Principal funding

The Trust is principally funded by donations received from Boodle & Dunthorne Limited and income derived from its investments.

THE BOODLES CHARITABLE TRUST

Statement of Trustees’ responsibilities

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' report 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 & Wales 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 Trust and of its incomingT resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:

• ° select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently, © observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP (FRS 102), e make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; © state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards (FRS 102) have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;

• e prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Trust will continue in business.

The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Trust's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Trust and 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 Trust and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

Disclosure of information to auditor

Each of the persons who are Trustees at the time when this Trustees’ report is approved has confirmed that:

• e so far as that Trustee is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the Trust's auditor is unaware, and

• e that Trustee has taken all the steps that ought to have been taken as a Trustee in order to be aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the Trust's auditor is aware of that information.

THE BOODLES CHARITABLE TRUST

TRUSTEES’ AUDITORS' AND THE MEMBERS OF THE BOODLES CHARITABLE TRUST

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2025

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of The Boodles Charitable Trust (the 'Trust') for the year ended 5 April 2025 which comprise the statement of financial activities, the balance sheet, the statement of cash flows and the related notes, 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, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland’ (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standards applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has been withdrawn.

This has been done in order for the accounts to provide a true and fair view in accordance with the Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.

In our opinion the financial statements:

• ° give a true and fair view of the state of the Trust'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 20141.

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 Trust in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council'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 Trust'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 other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditors' report thereon. The Trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. 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. 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 course of 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:

e the information given in the Trustees’ report 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.

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.

TRUSTEES'AUDITORS' AND THE MEMBERS OF THE BOODLES CHARITABLE TRUST (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2025

Auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

We have been appointed as auditor 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 an auditors’ report 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.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

• e the engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations;

• ¢ we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the company through discussions with trustees and other management, and from our commercial knowledge and experience of the sector;

• e we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the company, including the Charities Act 2011;

• e we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management and inspecting legal correspondence; and

• ¢ identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit.

We assessed the susceptibility of the company’s financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by:

• making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud; and

• e considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations,

To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we:

• « performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships; tested a sample of journal entries to identify unusual transactions;

• « assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining the accounting estimates were indicative of potential bias; and

• e investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions.

In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to:

• e agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation; * reading the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance;

• *® enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims.

THE BOODLES CHARITABLE TRUST

There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any. A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at: www.fre.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditors' report.

Use of our report

This report is made solely to the Trust'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 Trust'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 Trust and its Trustees, as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

19. Related party transactions

Voluntary income of £1,082,500 (2024: £1,000,000) was received from Boodle & Dunthorne Limited, a company in which the Trustees are Directors.

Donations of £3,000 (2024: ENil) were made to Now Believe of which J A Wainwright is a Trustee.

With regret after over twenty seven years of supporting the children at The Indian Christian Mission Centre (ICMC), either via personal donations or via Shining Faces (registered charity 1070575 — constitution adopted 23rd April 1998), the trustees feel the time is correct to close Shining Faces of India (of which N A Wainwright and J A Waiwright were Trustees). The balance of funds (£37,597) was transferred to The Boodles Charitable Trust ring-fenced for ICMC, to be transferred in full at a later date.
