THE MAIDENHEAD MALACHI TRUST

TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2022

The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 5 April 2022.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and "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

The Trustees shall hold the trust fund and its income upon trust to apply them for all charitable purposes, in accordance with the laws of England and Wales, particularly by means of making grants and providing other support (whether of a financial nature or otherwise) in the UK and elsewhere in the world as the trustees may from time to time think fit.

The trust will look to fund:

  1. Grants to charities, individuals and groups in the UK and internationally to relieve poverty and hardship. These will include running costs such as staff salaries and overheads.

  2. The promotion of the Christian gospel by a variety of means.

  3. Grants for the purpose of relieving sickness and promoting good health, particularly in under-developed nations.

The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake.

The applications for funding of projects are reviewed by the board of trustees for approval.

Achievements and performance

Charitable activities

This year has seen a fall in giving financial support due to the Trustees taking the decision to act with caution following the increased giving during the previous financial year. It was decided that each Trustee would have £5,000 to allocate rather than the usual £10,000, this decision was made on a temporary basis of 12 months and would be reassessed at the end of the financial year. That being said, the Trust was still able to offer financial support to one individual and 12 small organisations in the UK, along with a couple in South America and to the Diocese of Kigeme in Rwanda. Trustees decided that the temporary fund in response to provide financial support to individuals and small organisations affected by the impact of Covid-19 was no longer needed.

The Trust continued to follow the funding strategy of each of the trustees assigning an equal amount per year to individuals and small organisations, giving one off grants to individuals of £500 when requested and raising funds to support the ongoing work of Kigeme Diocese in Rwanda. The funding for in Rwanda included training pastors at EACU and Huye, offering support for their families and poor parishes, providing school meals, replacing the roof at Uwinkomo and contributing towards salaries for diocesan and Ubumwe staff.

In the UK, Trustees were able to support children and young people, people leaving prison, people recovering from addictions and people accessing food and baby banks. The total value of projects supported this year was £47,188. The reports received from individuals and organisations on the use of their grant made encouraging reading to the trustees who were extremely glad to be able to offer support and encouragement to so many people. All grants met the objectives of the Trust and are in line with the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit.

Income was £34,730 whilst loan repayments of £27,000 were received. The Trust has loaned Ben and Cat Dale a further £15,000 to complete building work on their home; this will be paid pack at the current monthly rate over a longer term. Trustees agreed during the previous financial year to close the Investec account as the balance had fallen below £20,000 which meant this is no longer producing any interest and this action was completed in July 2021.

The investment performance is considered by the trustees to be satisfactory.

THE MAIDENHEAD MALACHI TRUST

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2022

Financial review

The Maidenhead Malachi Trust relies for its grant making on income from its investments and funds donated by individuals and other grant-making organisations.

At the balance sheet date total fund balances were £1,430,178 (2021 - £1,425,234) of which restricted fund balances were £752 (2021 - £6,050). Excluding gains on the investment portfolio, the charity again had total charitable expenditure exceeding total income.

The investment portfolio managed by Rathbones increased in value from £505,027 to £524,655 reflecting the improving stock market performance over the period.

It was with great sadness that the Trustees took the decision to shut the Quench bookshop in Maidenhead in February 2022. The shops had been struggling financially for years due to a number of factors and it was decided to close the Maidenhead shop and focus resources on the Wokingham shop. This has left the the shop unit empty within the building that the Trust owns. For a while the Trustees explored the option to rent the unit out to a local church to use for community activities, but after some discussion it was decided that it was the right time to sell the property and estate agents have been tasked with this job. Rather than see the closure of Quench Maidenhead as a failure we instead look back over the past 20 years that the Trust has been involved and see the facility which has been provided to the town and churches in it.

It is the policy of the charity that unrestricted funds which have not been designated for a specific use should be maintained at a level equivalent to between three and six month’s expenditure. The trustees considers that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the charity’s current activities while consideration is given to ways in which additional funds may be raised. This level of reserves has been maintained throughout the year.

Risk management

The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. The board of trustees have examined the major strategic, business and operational risks to which the charity is exposed, particularly related to the operations and finances of the trust, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate its exposure to them.

Plans for future periods

Given the current difficult financial conditions, the Trust will focus on trying to maximise its income whilst ensuring that the assets of the Trust are not put at significant risk. The Trust continues to remain committed to relieving individuals from the pressures of poverty and will seek new ways to do this in the coming financial year.

Structure, governance and management

The charity was established by a charitable trust deed on 29th September 1999.

The trustees who served during the year were: Dr J Hyde Mrs M Hyde S Hyde S Hyde Mr J Hyde Mr M Sabiers

Trustees are appointed and elected in accordance with the terms set out in the governing document.

THE MAIDENHEAD MALACHI TRUST

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2022

The charity is headed by its trustees who are ultimately responsible for day to day operations. Decisions made in formal trustee meetings are communicated to staff who perform direct and administrative roles, and overseen by the trustees.

The current members of the Board of Trustees are set out on the information page. All appointments were approved at the Charity's AGM and there were no other movements during the year.

The trustees meet on a regular basis and delegate the day-to-day organisation of the Trust to the Chair and Secretary. The Chair and the Secretary report to the trustees on a regular basis.

New trustees may be co-opted by the existing trustees and undergo familiarisation training in the nature and objects of the charity and financial accounting matters.

New trustees benefit from an induction and training period to enable them to acclimatise to the way that the charity operates. This may include attending meetings with existing trustees and staff and taking part in the day to day operations of the charity to facilitate a greater understanding of its objectives and activities.

The trustees' report was approved by the Board of Trustees.

Independent examiner's statement

Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared financial statements in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard 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 now been withdrawn.

I understand that this has been done in order for financial statements to provide a true and fair view in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Practice effective for reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2015.

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

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

THE MAIDENHEAD MALACHI TRUST

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2022

1 Accounting policies

Charity information

The Maidenhead Malachi Trust is a charitable trust.

1.1 Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the charity's governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and "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)". The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.

The financial statements have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a true and fair view. This departure has involved following the Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying FRS 102 rather than the version of the Statement of Recommended Practice which is referred to in the Regulations but which has since been withdrawn.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, [modified to include the revaluation of freehold properties and to include investment properties and certain financial instruments at fair value]. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2 Going concern

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

1.3 Charitable funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the charity.

1.4 Income

Income is recognised when the charity is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.

Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the charity has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.

Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the charity has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.

THE MAIDENHEAD MALACHI TRUST

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2022

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

1.5 Expenditure

Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs 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.

1.6 Investment properties

Investment property, which is property held to earn rentals and/or for capital appreciation, is initially recognised at cost, which includes the purchase cost and any directly attributable expenditure. Subsequently it is measured at fair value at the reporting end date. The surplus or deficit on revaluation is recognised in profit or loss.

1.7 Fixed asset investments

Fixed asset investments are initially measured at transaction price excluding transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Changes in fair value are recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred.

1.8 Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities.

1.9 Financial instruments

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the charity's balance sheet when the charity becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.

Basic financial assets

Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.

Basic financial liabilities

Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.

Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.

Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2022

1 Accounting policies

(Continued)

Derecognition of financial liabilities

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled.

1.10 Employee benefits

The cost of any unused holiday entitlement is recognised in the period in which the employee’s services are received.

Termination benefits are recognised immediately as an expense when the charity is demonstrably committed to terminate the employment of an employee or to provide termination benefits.

1.11 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. Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements.

2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements

In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
