## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)**
## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2025**_
## **Financial review**
The fund has expenditure in excess of income of £2,108 this year. The trustees are satisfied that the funds of £209,348 are sufficient for the Charity to meet its ongoing day to day expenditure.
The charity incurred an unrealised loss of £19,821 in the year.
The trustees endeavour to hold the bare minimum of reserves necessary for the day to day running of the trust. On occasions, reserves do accumulate but this is down to a timing difference in receiving donations and making charitable distributions and, in general, the trustees attempt to distribute virtually all of the donations they receive.
Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
On behalf of the board of trustees

## **THE RACHAEL EMANUEL CHARITABLE TRUST**
## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT**
## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2025**_
I report on the accounts for the year ended 5th April 2025, which are set out on pages 4 to 9.
## **RESPECTIVE RESPONSIBILITIES OF TRUSTEES AND EXAMINER**
The charity’s trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity’s trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (“the Charities Act”) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is my responsibility to:
- examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
- follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Charities Act; and
- 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 Commissioners. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records kept by the charity and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, 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 accounts present a ‘true and fair’ view and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S STATEMENT**
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
- (1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements
- to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Charities Act; and
- to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and to comply with the accounting requirements of the Charities Act
have not been met; or
- (2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

## **THE RACHAEL EMANUEL CHARITABLE TRUST**
## **NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS**
## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2025**_
## **1 Accounting policies**
## **1.1 Basis of preparation**
The Rachael Emanuel Charitable Trust is a charitable trust constituted in England and Wales. The address of the registered office is given in the charity information at the front of these financial statements. The nature of the charity’s operations and principal activities are detailed in the Trustee’s Report on pages 1 to 2 of these financial statements.
The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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 issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Practice.
The charity does not include a cash flow statement on the grounds that it is applying FRS 102 Section 1A.
The financial statements have been prepared to give a ‘true and fair’ view and 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 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 issued in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £.
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.
## **1.2 Incoming resources**
These are included in the Statement of Financial Activities (SOFA) when:
- the charity becomes entitled to the resources;
- the trustees are virtually certain they will receive the resources and
- the monetary value can be measured with sufficient reliability.
Grants and donations are only included in the SOFA when the charity has unconditional entitlement to the resources.
Where incoming resources have related expenditure (as with fundraising or contract income) the incoming resources and related expenditure are reported gross in the SoFA.
Incoming resources from tax reclaims are included in the SoFA at the same time as the gift to which they relate.
Gifts in kind are accounted for at a reasonable estimate of their value to the charity or the amount actually realised.
Gifts in kind for sale or distribution are included in the accounts as gifts only when sold or distributed by the charity.
Gifts in kind for use by the charity are included in the SoFA as incoming resources when receivable.
