The Dagny Raymond Charitable Trust
Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 5 April 2021
The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 5 April 2021. 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).

The Charity's objects are to pay or apply the income and (if and when the Trustees in their absolute discretion think fit) the whole or any part or parts of the Capital of the Trust Fund to or for such charitable institution or institutions or other charitable object or objects in any part of the world as the Trustees shall in their absolute discretion think fit to support or establish.
The Trustees are consulted in connection with the affairs of the Trust by being asked to consider the reports and matters requiring decision as presented at each Trustees meeting
The Trustees decide the total amount available for donation and which charities or charitable objects to donate to at biannual Trustees meetings. The Trustees' have due regard for the Charity Commission's public benefit guidance when making these decisions.
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable activities
The charity has made total donations of £nil during the year to 5 April 2021 compared with £88,415 in the year to 5 April 2020.
Investment performance
The charity has achieved a return of £85,062 on investments by way of dividends. Slightly lower than what was received in the previous year, £103,894.
The market value of investments at 5 April 2021 has increased by £538,193 on the previous year.
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Financial position
The charity achieved a surplus in the year of £625,036, compared with a deficit of £573,128 in the prior year. The change is caused by the changes in the value of fixed asset investments in each year. Investments achieved a loss of £575.742 in 2020 but a gain of £543,584 in the current year.
Total unrestricted funds carried forward at the year end amounted to £2,256,593 (2020: £1,631,557).
INVESTMENT POLICY
It is the Charity's policy to invest primarily in Blue-Chip securities, to maintain balanced holdings in the various sectors of the market as well as geographically, to invest for the long-term to avoid constant change of holdings and to obtain above average income where possible.
RESERVES POLICY
The Trustees' policy on reserves is to review reserve levels on a regular basis and to maintain a level of reserves which will provide a stable base for the Trust's continuing activities while at the same time ensuring that excessive funds are not accumulated.
Total unrestricted funds at the year end amounted to £2,256,593, made up of £133,745 cash reserves. The remainder of the funds relate to fixed asset investments which can only be released on the sale of those assets.
The charitable company has free reserves of £126,641 as at 05 April 2021 (2020 - £39,798). The Trustees consider this level of reserves to be sufficient to deliver charitable objectives for the next twelve months. Free reserves are calculated by deducting fixed assets from the unrestricted (and undesignated) reserves held at the year-end.

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The Dagny Raymond Charitable Trust
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of The Dagny Raymond Charitable Trust (the Trust) for the year ended 5 April 2021.
Responsibilities and basis of report
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').
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent examiner's statement
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:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
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.
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 accounts to be reached.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 5 April 2021
1. LEGAL FORM
The Dagny Raymond Charitable Trust is a charitable organisation, registered in England and Wales. The registered office is noted on page 2.
2. 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.
Cash at bank
Cash at bank includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account.
Expenditure and creditors
Liabilities are measured at transaction price and recognised 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.
Governance costs
Governance costs comprise all the costs involving the public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practise.
Taxation
The charity is a registered charity and so there is no charge for taxation with the exception of Value Added Tax. The irrecoverable element of VAT is included within the item of expense to which it relates.
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.
Investments
Investments included in the accounts are included at market value. Gains arising from the sale of quoted investments are disclosed in the SOFA as realised gains. Gains arising from changes to the market values of quoted investments are disclosed in the SOFA as unrealised gains.
