WORCESTERSHIRE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION LIMITED
TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2022
The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 30 September 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 Foundation's [governing document], the Companies Act 2006 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 Foundation's objects are to channel endowments and other funds to local voluntary and community groups within the County of Worcestershire. There has been no change in these during the year.
The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the Foundation should undertake.
Achievements and performance
The movements on the reserves managed by the Foundation are described in the notes accompanying the financial statements.
Financial review
The majority of the Foundation's income is obtained from donations, grant administration, and Government (Gift Aid and Grassroots).
Banking arrangements are placed with NatWest Bank plc.
The Foundation's endowment funds are managed by St James's Place Partnership and those subject to Government matched funding are placed in COIF Charities Deposit Funds as required under that scheme.
Incoming resources totalled £279,964 (2021 - £1,103,311) with expenditure of £744,923 (2021 - £706,441). The investment losses were £107,127 (2021 - rose in value by £174,972) resulting in an decrease in total funds of £572,086 (2021 - increase of £571,842 ) and total reserves of £1,772,226- (2021 - £2,344,312) of which general reserves total £160,438 (2021 - £190,069).
It is the policy of the Foundation 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 consider that reserves at this level will ensure that, in the event of a significant drop in funding, they will be able to continue the Foundation’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.
The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the Foundation is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.
Structure, governance and management
The Foundation is a company limited by guarantee and is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association dated 3 June 2003.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT
TO THE TRUSTEES OF WORCESTERSHIRE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION LIMITED
I report on the financial statements of the Foundation for the year ended 30 September 2022, which are set out on pages 4 to 19.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The trustees who are also the directors of Worcestershire Community Foundation Limited for the purposes of company law, are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011, the 2011 Act, and that an independent examination is needed.
Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to audit under company law and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
-
(i) examine the financial statements under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
-
(ii) to follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and
-
(iii) to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the financial statements presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the financial statements, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the financial statements present a ‘true and fair view’ and the report is limited to those matters set out in the next statement.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
(a) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
-
(i) to keep accounting records in accordance with section 386 of the Companies Act 2006; and
-
(ii) to prepare financial statements which accord with the accounting records, comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the Companies Act 2006 and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities;
-
have not been met or
-
(b) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the financial statements to be reached.

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 Foundation.
1.4 Incoming resources
Income is recognised when the Foundation 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 Foundation has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount.
