## **WESTCOMBE FOUNDATION (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) TRUSTEES' REPORT (INCLUDING DIRECTORS' REPORT)** 

## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2022**_ 

The Trustees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 31 July 2022. 

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the charity's Trust Deed, 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 charity's objects are to relieve poverty, distress and suffering of people throughout the world and make donations and grants to assist such persons; to provide humanitarian and other essential aid to assist in relieving the poverty, sickness and suffering of people throughout the world, in particular medical and other similar aide to assist in relieving sickness and making grants or loans to any other institution, whether established for charitable purposes only falling within the objects of the charity. 

All proposals for grants are generated internally and the Trustees regret that external applications for funding will not be considered. 

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

## **Achievements and performance** 

During the year the Charity has given a number of small grants for philanthropic causes and to other charities in the UK and overseas. 

The Trustees have complied with their duty in section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to guidance published by the Charity Commission. 

## **Financial review** 

During the year the charity raised funds of £32,730 (2021: £62,019) and expended £69,336 (2021: £70,875). The reserves are £217 (2021: £36,823). 

## **Reserves and going concern** 

Firstly,  the charity receives nearly all of its funding from the Westcombe Partnership (owned by and run by the charity’s Trustees) and does not receive external funding from the general public. In addition to this, the charity has minimal overhead costs and is able to vary the level of expenditure incurred according to the level of income received each year. 

Furthermore, the charity has no immediate plans to hold another large event, similar to the one that took place in the year to 31 July 2019, that would require a significant outlay of expenditure. 

Finally, the charity’s Trustees are confident that they will be able to continue funding the charity’s on-going grant-giving activities through continued donations from the Westcombe Partnership. 

As at 31 July 2022, the charity has unrestricted reserves for £217. The Trustees consider the charity to be a going concern on the basis that, as above, they will continue to provide financial support to the charity (through the Westcombe Partnership) where needed to ensure it is able to meet liabilities as they fall due. 

## **Risk assessment** 

The Trustees have assessed the major risks to which the charity is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.

## **WESTCOMBE FOUNDATION (A COMPANY LIMITED BY GUARANTEE) INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT** 

## **TO THE TRUSTEES OF WESTCOMBE FOUNDATION** 

I report to the Trustees on my examination of the financial statements of Westcombe Foundation (the charity) for the year ended 31 July 2022. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the Trustees of the charity (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 (the 2006 Act). 

Having satisfied myself that the financial statements of the charity 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 the charity’s financial statements carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act). In carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable 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 that in any material respect: 

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

- 2 the financial statements do not accord with those records; or 

- 3 the financial statements 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 financial statements 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 financial statements to be reached.
