Peter Lang Children's Trust

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 December 2020

The trustees who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2020. 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).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

Mission Statement

"The aim of the PLCT is to increase the number of babies and toddlers (conception to 3 years of age) in Gloucestershire who experience loving, nurturing and harm-free childhoods."

The Trust's strategic plan, with a specific focus on Early Intervention, was launched in October 2012.

The Trust's conviction is that this will help provide children with a secure social and emotional foundation for the rest of their lives and will reduce the likelihood of those later aggressive, harmful and self-destructive behaviours that result from damaging experiences in infancy.

2020 saw the continued implementation and refinement of a robust quarterly monitoring and evaluation process for all grant recipients. This process requires all grant recipients to specify their intended outputs and outcomes for each quarter of delivery and for the proposed programme of work as a whole. Grants are disbursed on a quarterly basis and the release of funds is dependent on the successful completion of quarterly monitoring returns for the preceding quarter. Applicants for funding are required to explain how they will help the Trust fulfil its mission, and how they will demonstrate that their programme has had an impact upon its targeted beneficiaries. The Trust expects projects to apply evidenced based methods when evaluating their outcomes.

It is anticipated that applications will meet 8 out of the following 10 specific short-term outcomes.

There is a preference to fund small to medium sized organisations (i.e. income between £10,000 - £1m pa), but the principal criteria is the selection of organisations that will enable the Trust to fulfil its mission and targeted outcomes. Furthermore:

Significant events - 2020

March 2020 saw the start of the Covid-19 pandemic. Following Government guidelines, the Trust Manager began to work from home. All of the PLCT grant recipients also followed Government guidelines and quickly adapted their service provision to offer support either via telephone or virtually and only met for face-to-face support as and when restritions allowed.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Following the sale of Peter Lang International Academic Publishing in 2015, the final deferred payment was expected in December 2018. However, this payment was not forthcoming from the company. The trustees have actively pursued this payment, however 99% has now been allocated as a bad debt.

Other minor cash amounts are held with Lloyds Bank for expenses relating to philanthropy and general administration. The value of cash held in this account as at 31st December 2020 amounted to £28,527.18.

The approved budget for philanthropy was £321,088.50. Actual funds released were £321,088.50.

The Trust's reserves at 31st December 2020 amounted to £3,665,066 (2019 : £3,878,178)

FUTURE PLANS

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust, and constitutes a limited company, limited by guarantee, as defined by the Companies Act 2006.

Page 6

Peter Lang Children's Trust

Report of the Trustees

for the Year Ended 31 December 2020

The Trust is a charitable company under the Companies' Acts 1985 and 1989, limited by guarantee and not having a share capital, incorporated on 28th December 2006 and first registered as a charity on 30th October 1991. The Company was established under a Memorandum of Association, which sets out the objects and powers of the charitable company and is governed under its Articles of Association.

Recruitment and appointment of new trustees

Trustees are recruited for the skills and expertise that are identified as necessary by the Trust to fulfil its mission and targeted outcomes as identified in its Strategic Plan. Potential Trustees are given the opportunity to meet the Trust Board and to discuss what their general and specific portfolio responsibilities could be. New Trustees are appointed by resolution of the Trustees. New Trustees are requested to sign a letter of commitment. There is no set maximum number of Trustees, although between five and eight is considered to be appropriate. The statutory minimum number is three. Trustee tenure is a maximum of nine years.

Organisational structure

Trustees' meetings are scheduled to take place quarterly with special meetings called, if this is deemed necessary, to discuss particular issues. It is standard practice at each of the meetings for Trustees to discuss their own development needs and review their personal contribution to the Trust.

The Trust employs one member of staff, the Trust Manager, who is responsible for the day-to-day administration of the Trust, and the monitoring and evaluation of the Trust's grant-making programme. The Board of Trustees makes the final decision to award grants. The Board is also responsible for confirming annual grant budget availability.

Mr Robin Balbernie is the Chair of Trustees.

Mrs Bridget Osicki is the Vice Chair and also advises on Human Resource Management.

Mr John Holland is the Treasurer and offers support and expertise on the Business Portfolio.

Mr Stephen Hawkins holds the lead portfolio for Business.

Mrs Patricia Perrins holds the lead portfolio for Philanthropy and is also responsible for the line management of the Trust Manager.

The Trust Manager, Ms Diane Mautterer is responsible for the day-to-day administration of the Trust, supporting the Chairman, Treasurer and other Trustees, communications (internal and external), and core financial functions (e.g. grant payments, payroll, NI/PAYE, etc.). She also administers monitors and evaluates the projects that are supported by the Trust and liaises with other local agencies, making recommendations and reporting back to the Trustees at Board Meetings.

Trustees’ Induction and Training

The PLCT has a formal induction process. In summary, new Trustees are invited to spend time with the Chairman and other Trustees, during which the aims and objectives of the Trust are outlined and discussed. Meetings are also arranged with individual Trustees, at which their particular roles are explained, for example Philanthropy, Finance and Business, in order to provide an understanding of the Trust's operations and to give an opportunity for questions and clarification.

New Trustees receive a copy of the Governing Documents, previous audited accounts, Minutes of Trust Meetings and of appropriate committee meetings and relevant Charity Commission guidance (CC3) on the roles and responsibilities of Trustees. Trustees are also provided with a copy of the Good Trustee Guide produced by NCVO. Training opportunities are identified for the Trust Board as a whole and for specific individual areas of responsibility, with Trustees supported in accessing said training.

Trustees give their time voluntarily and receive no benefits from the Charity. They are able to claim for out of pocket expenses or agreed expenditure. Any expense reclaimed from the charity is included in the accounts.

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Peter Lang Children's Trust ('the Company')

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2020.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement

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:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act 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; or

  4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).

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.
