The Trustees have adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) "Accounting and Reporting by Charities" (revised January 2015). ## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** ## **Introduction** Tanaka UK Japan Education Foundation Limited (the "Company") was incorporated on 28 September 2009 and was established to support and fund the advancement of education in Japan, the United Kingdom, and other English speaking countries. The Company was registered as a Charity on 2 September 2010. ## **Governing Document** Tanaka UK Japan Educational Foundation Limited is a Company limited by guarantee and has no share capital. It is constituted under its Memorandum and Articles of Association dated 28 September 2009 as amended by two Special Resolutions dated 22 July 2010 (registered at Companies House on 6 August 2010) and 7 July 2016 (registered at Companies House on 14 July 2016). It is a registered Company under Company number 07032612 and a registered Charity under Charity registration number 1137714. ## **Recruitment and Training of Trustees** In accordance with the Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Trustees are appointed by the members of the Company. The Trustees have a limited power to appoint Trustees to serve until the following Annual General Meeting. The Trustees during the year, who are also the Directors of the Company, are shown on page one. The Trustees shall never be less than three in number and there are currently four. ## **Management** The Trustees are ultimately responsible for the policies, activities, and assets of the Company. The Trustees meet at least once a year and are responsible for reviewing the annual accounts, policies and procedures in respect of internal financial controls, and the policy in relation to investments. ## **Risk Management** The Trustees have examined the major strategic, business, and operational risks that the Company is exposed to and these are reviewed regularly. The Trustees are satisfied that adequate procedures are in place to mitigate exposure to these risks, although it is recognised that systems can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance. They have identified the following risks and actions taken to mitigate such risks: Risk identified Action taken to mitigate the risk - Investments will drop in value. - Vanguard, a well-established asset manager, has been engaged by the Directors since 2015 to manage a significant proportion of the amounts the Company has available for investment. The appropriateness and productiveness of this engagement is reviewed on an annual basis. 2 **Tanaka UK Japan Educational Foundation Limited Trustees' Report For the Year Ended 30 September 2023** |- Grant/donations made will not be spent|- Each grant is made subject to the Company's standard terms and| |---|---| |for the charitable purposes for which they|conditions of grant, which provide robust protections and remedies for| |were made.|the Company, including clawback of funds. In addition, the Trustees| ||undertake proportionate checks on each potential recipient in advance| ||so that they can be satisfied as to their suitability. The Trustees also| ||actively review their active grants and require regular updates and| ||reports from recipients to ensure the grant monies are being used as| ||envisaged (which are requirements under the conditions of grant), and| ||so that the Company can take action where necessary.| |- Internal control risks.|- Structured procedures for authorisation of all transactions and| ||projects.| |- Risks related to the maintenance and|- The Company obtains relevant legal and insurance advice and other| |upkeep of the occupied premises in|appropriate consultancy support as needed from time to time to ensure| |Oxford.|any relevant risks to the Company are properly considered and| ||addressed. In relation to any works undertaken at the premises, only| ||appropriate well-established contractors of good standing will be used| ||with appropriately robust legal contractual documentation underpinning| ||the works which protect the Company's interests.| ## **Key Management Personnel** The board of Trustees and the senior management team comprise the key management personnel of the Company in charge of directing, controlling, running, and operating the Company on a day to day basis. All Trustees give their time freely and no trustee received remuneration in the year. Details of Trustees' expenses and related party transactions are disclosed in notes 11 and 12 to the accounts. ## **Investment Policy and Review** The Company has power to invest in such assets as it sees fit. The Company's policy has been to retain the income (as cash on interest bearing accounts) in light of the volatility affecting other forms of investment. The markets became stable in October 2015 and the Trustees started to invest some cash in an Equity/Bond fund on 14 October 2015 run by Vanguard. The returns from the Company's investments were broadly in line with the adopted benchmark. The Trustees actively monitor the results achieved by Vanguard and are content that they understand the reason for the historic performance levels. They believe that an appropriate investment strategy is in place for the medium to long term. ## **OBJECTIVES, AIMS AND ACTIVITIES** ## **Objectives** The objectives of the Company are the advancement of education of the public in Japan, the United Kingdom, and other English speaking countries by the provision of educational or financial support (including, but without prejudice to, the generality of the foregoing making grants, bursaries, or scholarships) to the providers of education or students undertaking studies in the Japanese or English language, literature, culture, arts, or science. 3 **Tanaka UK Japan Educational Foundation Limited Trustees' Report For the Year Ended 30 September 2023** ## **Grant-Making Policy** Grants are made in line with the objectives of the Company to education providers, such as universities and schools, to achieve the Company's educational objectives for public benefit. The beneficiaries of the Company's grant-making programmes are ultimately students undertaking studies in the Japanese or English language, literature, culture, arts, or sciences. ## **Grant-Making Activities** The Trustees have continued to explore grant-making opportunities and considered a number of applications this year. In particular, a grant has been made in furtherance of the Charity's purposes to University of Oxford, Pembroke College (the Oriental Institute) - for research fellowships, scholarships and an academic symposium. ## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** Since July 2014 the Company has been a tenant of Tanaka Ikueikai Educational Foundation and entitled to receive rent on the property (The Old Building and The Annex of 66 Banbury Road, Oxford) until 9 March 2027 and 6 May 2022 (respectively) in respect of sub-leases granted to schools and other education providers. Negotiations with the tenant for the The Annex lease which expired on 6 May 2022 are still ongoing at the time of signing these accounts and a new lease agreement has been drafted. The Trustees of Tanaka UK Japan Educational Foundation Limited have not recorded the value of these leases on the balance sheet but record the rental income each year through its statement of financial activities. All funds are unrestricted. It is intended that the investment portfolio will generate income which will be used towards satisfying the grant-making policy in accordance with the objectives of the Company. Total income in the period ending 30 September 2023 was £292,732 (2022: £280,416). The financial statements show investments at market value. The unrealised and realised gains and losses on the revaluation of investment assets for the year was a net gain of £69,170 (2022: £204,047 net loss). ## **Reserves Policy** The Company’s reserves comprise unrestricted funds. Free reserves are unrestricted funds less amounts tied up in fixed assets, which are freely available to spend on any of the Company's purposes. Free reserves provide the working capital of the Company, whilst providing liquid funds in case of any unexpected future deficits. The Trustees have reviewed the requirement for free reserves and based on their review they need an amount at least equal to operating expenditure. The Trustees have examined the Company's requirements for reserves in light of the main risks to the organisation. The Company has unrestricted reserves of £2,409,591 as at 30 September 2023 (2022: £2,080,421) and free reserves of £735,641 as at 30 September 2023 (2022: £495,762). The level of free reserves as at 30 September 2023 equates to in excess of one years’ running costs. ## **PUBLIC BENEFIT STATEMENT** The overarching objective of the Trustee grant-making strategy is to benefit a wide cross-section of the community through supporting suitable educational providers. The Trustees have referred to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit when reviewing their aims and objectives and planning their future activities. The Trustees believe that their strategic grant-making activities meet the objective of benefiting a wide cross-section of the community. The Trustees ensure that a robust monitoring system is in place to establish the benefit derived from each grant in order to be confident of meeting their public benefit obligations. In accordance with their duties to provide public benefit in furtherance of the Company's charitable purposes, honouring the guidelines of the Charity Commission, the Trustees have continued to review potential grant-making opportunities this year and, in particular, have made one significant grant as detailed above. ## **FUTURE PLANS** After the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, the charity has high hopes that operations are returning to normal. In light of this optimism, the foundation is inviting proposals from the UK and Japan once more this year. Such proposals will be evaluated by the trustees in the usual course as they are received. The trustees are looking forward to supporting the relevant project proposals which are in alignment with the charity's stated goals and objectives. In addition, the building owned by the charity has undergone significant maintenance work and renovations which have greatly improved the premises. The trustees are pleased to report this ongoing major work improving the building has been performed without interruption to the tenants' operations. 4 **Tanaka UK Japan Educational Foundation Limited Trustees' Report For the Year Ended 30 September 2023** ## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' REPONSIBILITIES** The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. The Trustees have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under Company law the Trustees must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Company and of the profit and loss of the Company for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to: - select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; - observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; - make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; - state whether applicable UK accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and • prepare the financial statements on a consistent and ongoing basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Company will continue to operate. The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Company and enable the Trustees to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. So far as each of the Trustees is aware at the time the report is approved: • there is no relevant information of which the Company's independent examiners are unaware; and • the Trustees have taken all steps that they ought to have taken to make themselves aware of any relevant information. Approved by the Trustees and signed on behalf of the Trustees by: ## 28 June, 2024 ……………………………. ……………………………. Mr Takeshi Ueshima Date on behalf of the Trustees 5 ## **Tanaka UK Japan Educational Foundation Limited Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of Tanaka UK Japan Educational Foundation Limited For the Year Ended 30 September 2023** I report on the accounts of the Company for the year ended 30 September 2023 which are set out on pages 7 to 14. ## **Responsibilities and Basis of Report** As the Trustees (who are also the Charity's Directors) of the Company 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** Since the Company's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member or 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 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. ……………………………. **Karen Wardell, FCCA For and on behalf of Moore Kingston Smith LLP Chartered Accountants** 28 June 2024 …………………………….

The Members have not required the Company to obtain an audit in accordance with section 476 of the Companies Act 2006. The Trustees acknowledge their responsibilities for complying with requirements of the Act with respect to accounting records and the preparation of financial statements. These accounts have been prepared in accordance with the provisions applicable to companies subject to the small companies' regime within part 15 of the Companies Act 2006. 28 June The financial statements were approved for issue by the Board on 2024 and signed on its 28 June behalf by: ……………………………. Mr Takeshi Ueshima on behalf of the Trustees ## **Company Registration No. 07032612** 8 **Tanaka UK Japan Educational Foundation Limited Notes to the Financial Statements For the Year Ended 30 September 2023** ## **1. Accounting policies** ## **Company information** Tanaka UK Japan Educational Foundation Limited is a private company limited by guarantee, domiciled and incorporated in England and Wales. The registered office 10 Queen Street Place, London, EC4R 1BE and the principal office is Flat 7 Elton Lodge, 20-22 Florence Road, London, W5 3TX. ## **(a) Basis of preparation** The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of listed investments which are included at their market value. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the 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 effective 1 January 2015 (The FRS 102 Charities SORP), the Companies Act 2006 and Charities Act 2011. The Trustees confirm that the Company meets the definition of a public entity under FRS 102. ## **(b) Incoming resources** All incoming resources are included in the Statement of Financial Activities when the Company is entitled to receive the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. The following policies are applied to particular categories of income: - Voluntary income is received by way of grants, donations and gifts and is included in full in the Statement of Financial Activities when receivable. Grants, where entitlement is not conditional on the delivery of a specific performance by the Company, are recognised when the Company becomes unconditionally entitled to the grant. - Donated services and facilities are included at the value to the Company where this can be quantified. The value of services provided by volunteers has not been included in these financial statements. - Investment income is included when receivable. ## **(c) Resources expended** Expenditure is recognised on an accrual basis as a liability is incurred. Expenditure includes VAT, and is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates: - Costs of raising funds comprise the costs associated with attracting voluntary income. - Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the Company in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries. It includes both costs that can be allocated directly to such activities and those costs of an indirect nature necessary to support them. - Charitable expenditure includes grants payable which are charged in the year in which the offer is conveyed to the recipient, except where the grant is conditional, in which case the expenditure is recognised when the conditions of such grants are fulfilled. - All costs are allocated between the expenditure categories of the Statement of Financial Activities on a basis designed to reflect the use of the resource. ## **(d) Going concern** At the time of approving the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and for a period of not less than twelve months from the date of approval of these financial statements. Thus the Directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. 9 **Tanaka UK Japan Educational Foundation Limited Notes to the Financial Statements (continued) For the Year Ended 30 September 2023** ## **1. Accounting policies (continued)** ## **(e) Fixed asset investments** Investments are a form of basic financial instruments and are initially shown in the financial statements at market value. Changes in the market values of investments are shown as unrealised gains and losses in the Statement of Financial Activities. Profits and losses on the realistion of investments are shown as realised gains and losses in the Statement of Financial Activities. Realised gains and losses on investments are calculated between sales proceeds and their opening carrying values or their purchase value if acquired subsequent to the first day of the financial year. Unrealised gains and losses are calculated as the difference between the fair value at the year end and their carrying value. Realised and unrealised investment gains and losses are combined in the Statement of Financial Activities. ## **(f) Financial instruments** The Company has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. Basic financial assets, which include trade and other receivables, cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method, unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at market rate of interest. ## **(g) Cash and cash equivalents** Cash and cash equivalents includes cash in hand, deposits held at call with banks, other short-term liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts are shown within borrowings in current liabilities. ## **(h) Unrestricted funds** These comprise those funds which the Trustees are free to use in accordance with the charitable objectives, which are shown on the Statement of Financial Activities and Balance Sheet. The Company does not maintain any other funds. ## **2. Estimates and judgements** In the application of the Company’s accounting policies, the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods. The Trustees do not consider there to be any material estimates or judgements. 10 **Tanaka UK Japan Educational Foundation Limited Notes to the Financial Statements (continued) For the Year Ended 30 September 2023** ## **3.
