TRUSTEES' REPORT

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022

The trustees present their annual report and financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2022.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the charity's [governing document], the Charities Act 2011 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 objective of the Charity is to apply both capiial and income form donations, bequests, deeds of covenants, gift aid and also investments for the relief of the poor and needy or such other charitable purposes as the District Council shall decided in a duly constituted meeting.

The charity carries out these objectives by raising funds principally through Club appeals and a variety of activities. Most charitable activities in District 1040 are performed by Clubs.

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

Achievements and performance

The Charity raised £155,530 through appeals and Club donations and made distributions amounting to £117,171. The principle focus for appeals was Ukraine where £126,930 was raised by District Clubs, Inner Wheel and Others and £109,292 was distributed; £50,000 through the Rotary Club of Kosice and Uzhgorod in eastern Slovakia. Past District Governor Baganich has overseen the humanitarian distribution into Ukraine. Alongside this we spent a further £49,999 on the purchase of medical supplies, including medical action bags to support ambulance crews in war torn Ukrainian cities.

The Charity has also supported a Bulgarian orphanage through the RC Ruse Dunaux in Bulgaria.

Also £7,000 was spent to Physionet to help them send more medical equipment out to Ukraine.

Donations continue to be made to the Charity and the Trustees were successful in applying to the Rotary Foundation for a £20,000 Disaster Response grant to support refugees in District 1040; this being distributed across the AG groups.

In addition the charity has launched appeals to support Sri Lanka to help at the time of Covid with Humanitarian needs, including food parcels and medical supplies. £4,650 has so far been sent to Kandy.

The Charity continues to support the KSV School in Sri Lanka and will send a further £560 this year to support buying school equipment and shoes.

A further £1,400 has been collected for Sanddams enabling us to meet our target amount of £8,000 and contribute to building a Sanndam in Kenya.

We continue to support the Microloan scheme enabling us to send a further £1,000 to the RC Kandy for the Centre

for Handicaps.

Individual Clubs continue to send donations to ShelterBox and Aquabox to support those in need as a result of world wide disasters including Ukraine and Pakistan.

ROTARY INTERNATIONAL DISTRICT 1040 CHARITABLE TRUST

TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2022

Fundraising

Section 162a of the Charities Act 2011 requires charities to make a statement regarding fundraising activities. The legislation defines fundraising as ‘soliciting or otherwise procuring money or other property for charitable purposes’. The charity does not actively raise funds from the public either directly or via use of an agent, accordingly no such amounts are presented in the financial statements for the year under review. The charity has received no complaints in relation to fundraising activity for the year under review.

Given the nature of the funding of the charity the Trustees consider that it remains appropriate not to be voluntarily bound to be regulated by the Fundraising Regulator.

Financial review

The net movement in the Charity reserves increased by £38,359 by 30th June 2022 through fund appeals, bringing total reserves up to £53,922. This includes £983 in general and unrestricted funds along with £52,939 restricted funds.

It is the District's policy to distribute balances in the restricted fund by the end of the following year. Trustees consider it imprudent to maintain large balances on the sub funds when the objective is to support charitable causes. Some sums are retained to support further initiatives in keeping with the aims of the original donations.

The Trustees have decided to keep all funds in a liquid account so as to be able to respond immediately as the needs arise. The trustees have not adopted an ethical investment policy.

The trustees have examined the major strategic and operational risks which face the charity and are of the opinion procedures are in place to mitigate these risks. The charity has no operational costs as these are bourn by the District General Fund.

Plans for future periods

The Charity will continue to support the poor and needy and its projects in the restricted funds and in particular support Ukraininan refugees in District 1040 and Ukraine through humanitarian projects.

Structure, governance and management

The charity is a trust governed by its Trust Deed dated 18 September 2010 and registered as a charity on 8 December 2010.

The trustees who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were: The trustees who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were:
