Legal and administrative information set out on page 1 forms part of this report. 

## **Objectives and Activities for the Public Benefit** 

The objectives, for which the Charity was established, as dictated by the Memorandum and Articles of Association, are to promote such purposes as shall be charitable from time to time under English law as the Trustees shall from time to time determine. 

The primary focus of the Charity is to provide financial assistance to eligible individuals of any age, who would not otherwise have the means to do so, to facilitate their participation in amateur sport, education, environmental protection or improvement and the arts. 

Beneficiary groups are supported by the provision of funding for full or part time education or tutoring at primary, secondary or tertiary level, or by the provision of other resources or equipment necessary to enjoy, attain, complement and benefit their aims. 

The Trustees confirm that in accordance with Section 17 of the Charities Act 2011, they have referred to the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the Charity’s aims and objectives and in planning their future grant making activities. 

## **Achievements and Performance** 

During the period (2019: year) the Charity received £29,562 (2019: £516,663) of restricted funds. The Charity has awarded no bursaries in the short period as bursaries were awarded prior to the start of the period. In the prior year 44 bursaries were awarded to individuals for the purpose of providing educational scholarships. 

The Charity received £301,276 (2019: £10,556) in designated donations during the period (2019: year), following fundraising activities and appeals at a number of the schools. 

The Charity received £38,193 (2019: £31,250) in unrestricted donations during the period (2019: year). 

The Trustees assess the Charity’s performance with reference to the number of individuals supported in the areas outlined in the Charity’s objectives. 

Grants are paid based upon the merits of applications received and have decreased on the prior year due to the timing of applications being approved at the start of the academic year which is not covered in this accounting period.

## **DIRECTORS’ REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 JANUARY TO 31 AUGUST 2020** 

## **Financial Review** 

The Charity’s activities resulted in net income of £29,562 (2019: 11,689) in the restricted fund, net income of £287,788 (2019: net expenditure £201,545) in the designated fund and net expenditure of £53,668 (2019: £30,843) in the unrestricted fund. At the period (2019: year) end the Charity held £263,365 (2019: £117,915) in cash at bank and £277,420 (2019: £373,481) in investments, of which £320,135 was payable in creditors (2019: £544,401). 

The level of charitable expenditure during the period is low compared to income and reserves as a result of the change in accounting reference date. Expenditure on charitable activities for the academic year was recognised in the prior year. The Trustees intend to regularly review the level of expenditure compared to income and reserves. As at 31 August 2020, the Charity’s reserves consist of its unrestricted fund, which had a balance of £3,368 (31 December 2019: £57,036) and the designated fund and restricted fund, which are explained in more detail in notes 14 and 15. 

The principal funding sources of the charity are individual donors and income from investments. 

## **Structure, Governance and Management** 

The Gold Standard Charitable Trust was incorporated as a company limited by guarantee (with an exemption from using the word limited in its company name) on 13 February 2009, as The Three R's Foundation, and it is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association. The Company changed its name to The Alpha Standard Trust on 1 July 2009 and to The Gold Standard Charitable Trust on 15 January 2014. The Company was registered as a Charity on 7 August 2009 and its registered number is 01130999. 

The Founder Member has the exclusive power to appoint additional Trustees at an Annual General Meeting (“AGM”) up to a maximum number of twelve, to fill a vacancy amongst the Trustees where there are fewer than the minimum requirement of three Trustees, or to remove a Trustee. The first Trustees retire at the first AGM but are eligible for reappointment for one or more further terms of office. Any person appointed subsequently holds office for a term of office ending on the second AGM following his appointment; unless upon his or her retirement the number of Trustees will fall below the minimum number required, in which case he or she may continue until a replacement is found. The Trustees will consider appropriate methods for recruitment when it is decided that new Trustees are required. 

The Trustees meet to administer the Charity. The quorum for meetings of Trustees is two Trustees (unless there are fewer than two Trustees in office) including the Founder Member (unless he has agreed that a meeting may be held in his absence). Decisions are made by majority vote and in the event of a tied vote, the Chairman has a second and deciding vote (except where two Trustees are present at a meeting they act unanimously). A meeting of Trustees at which a quorum is present can exercise all of the powers which the Trustees have, including establishing sub-committees under these powers. 

The Board of Trustees is responsible for the management of risks faced by the Charity. The Trustees have satisfied themselves that no major risks have been identified. 

The number of members of the Charity is unlimited. 

This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions relating to small companies within Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006. 

Approved and signed on behalf of the Trustees 

Colin Wagman **Trustee**

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE GOLD STANDARD CHARITABLE TRUST FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 JANUARY TO 31 AUGUST 2020** 

I report to the Trustees (who are also Directors for the purpose of company law) on my examination of the financial statements of The Gold Standard Charitable Trust (‘the charitable company’) for the period ended 31 August 2020, which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities (including an income and expenditure account), the Balance Sheet and related Notes. 

This report is made solely to the Charity’s Trustees, as a body, in accordance with section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the Charity’s Trustees those matters I am required to state to them in this report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Charity and the Charity’s Trustees as a body, for my work, for this report, or for the opinions I have formed. 

## **Respective Responsibilities of Trustees and Examiner** 

As the Trustees of charitable company 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 charitable company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of the charitable company’s financial statements carried out under section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the 2011 Act’) and 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. 

As permitted by Direction 2, issued by the Charity Commission the firm for which I work has provided the Company with bookkeeping services during the period ended 31 August 2020. As a consequence I have followed the requirement of the FRC’s Ethical Standard when undertaking this assignment. 

An independent examination does not involve gathering all the evidence that would be required in an audit and consequently does not cover all the matters that an auditor considers in giving their opinion on the financial statements. The planning and conduct of an audit goes beyond the limited assurance that an independent examination can provide. Consequently I express no opinion as to whether the financial statements present a ‘true and fair’ view and my report is limited to those specific matters set out in the independent examiner’s statement. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

Since the charitable company’s gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a body listed in section 145 of the 2011 Act. I confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of ICAEW, which is one of the listed bodies. 

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 charitable company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or - the financial statements do not accord with those records; or 

- the financial statements do not comply with the accounting requirements of section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the financial statements give a ‘true and fair view' which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or 

- 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.

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED 31 AUGUST 2020** 

## **1 Accounting policies** 

## **1.1 Basis of preparation** 

The company received charitable status on 7 August 2009 and is a public benefit entity. 

The financial statements are prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise stated within these accounting policies and 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 (FRS 102) (2nd Edition, effective 1 January 2019) – (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Companies Act 2006 and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). 

## **1.2 Going concern** 

During the period, the coronavirus pandemic restrictions imposed a national lockdown with closure of schools being one measure of response. This resulted in termly fees for Summer 2020 being discounted and fundraising events being unable to go ahead. Despite this, the Trustees deem the entity to be a going concern and the financial statements have therefore been prepared on this basis due to the assets held by the charity. It has been determined that the charity will be able to continue operations for a period of at least 12 months from the balance sheet date and has continued future support from key donors. 

## **1.3 Income**

## _(iv) Interest receivable_ 

Interest is included when receivable by the Charity.

## _(ii) Charitable activities_ 

This comprises all expenditure incurred by the Charity in meeting its charitable objectives. This expenditure comprises grant funding activities and support costs.

Grants are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities (including an income and expenditure account) when the charity commits to the payment. Grants are committed to for a set period of time and are reviewed on a case by case basis to establish whether they will be continued further. 

## **1.5 Funds** 

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes. Periodically the Trustees designate unrestricted funds to ensure specific funds will be available for a specific purpose. 

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purpose and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the financial statements when the Charity holds restricted funds in the appropriate accounting period.
