Review of Activities

The Trust is the succession Trust of the Devon Vihara Trust (Charity no. 289636)

The main financial responsibility of the trust is the development, maintenance and upkeep of Hartridge Buddhist monastery. This continues to attract members of the public of all faiths who are interested to learn about, or deepen their understanding of Buddhism and are able to visit or stay at the monastery.

The monastery is the focal point for an extensive community. It provides spiritual support to and is generously supported by expatriate members of the Thai, Sri Lankan, Cambodian and Lao communities, as well as UK born Buddhists. The annual Kathina and Vesak ceremonies held at the monastery both attract 100-200 visitors.

The monasteries are open to the public on a daily basis and all are welcome to join in the formal meditation and puja activities. Some visitors request to stay for an extended period in order to deepen their practice of the Buddhist religion. Others gain benefit from the peaceful and calm woodland environment where ecological conservation is being undertaken through the contribution of volunteers.

Meditation classes, which are open to all members of the public whatever their faith and personal circumstances, are run on a regular basis. These classes are provided free of charge. Mindfulness meditation and the cultivation of loving kindness are practices with proven therapeutic benefits which have been adopted and adapted by healthcare professionals.

Meditation classes and residential retreats at other locations, as well as public talks and lectures, are given during the year, and these include visits to schools and other organisations.

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

After the monastic winter retreat, which ended at the start of April, the activity on the monastery gradually returned to pre-covid-19 routines. The size of the resident community varied between five and seven, which meant that the monastery was full much of the time. Usually there would be two to four lay guests at any one time.

Meditation workshops were well attended, and consequently extra workshops were held. However Sunday evening talks were generally less well attended than pre-covid. Festival days were well attended, including the annual Kathina festival in October. Several retreats were taught elsewhere, and a successful Thai weekend retreat was held at the monastery. Inter-monastery visits and exchanges resumed, with visits to Harnham, and to and from both Amaravati and Chithurst communities.

Total donations during the year were the highest ever, with a total of £122,394 received. Of this amount £36,600 was towards the construction of new kutis, and spending on the kutis in the year was £35,828. The Trust spent £23,379 on the day-to-day running expenditure of Hartridge, of which £834 was on administration for the independent examiners fees and £3,932 on a varity of sundry capital items.

Unrestricted income was £84,319 of which £5,916 was Gift Aid from HMRC, and £1,607 was payment under the Renewable Heat Incentive scheme for heat generated by the log boiler. A restricted travel fund expended £2,163 on running costs of the car and received £929 leaving a balance of £1,945 at the year end The Welfare fund expended £894 and received £545 leaving a balance of £6,001 at 31st December 2022.

One new kuti was completed during the year, and a second was nearing completion. A PA system was installed in the Dhamma Hall, and the roof of one of the older kutis was replaced with material recycled from buildings demolised at Amaravati monastery.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Reserves and Investment Policy

The Trust holds a contingency reserve of £15,000, primarily to cover any sudden and maJor fall in voluntary income. This sum represents approximately one year of core expenditure, so it is thought that if a situation arose where either short or long term income seemed in doubt, the reserve would provide a period of between one to three years for the trustees to consider how best to proceed. The reserve was also available as a contingency against cost over-runs during the Dhamma Hall project, as cash flow needed to be carefully considered at various stages. However, by the end of 2019, the Dhamma Hall project had effectively been completed, and there are no immediate large capital projects planned, although there are some tentative ideas for further ahead.

' The Trust s unrestricted cash assets over and above the reserve are designated for future capital projects. Currently these assets are held in a current account as the trustees take a cautious view on riskier investment, interest rates in deposit accounts are exceptionally low, and the sums involved are relatively small.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE HARTRIDGE BUDDHIST MONASTERY TRUST LTD

I report on the accounts of Hartridge Buddhist Monastery Trust for the year ended 31 December 2022, which are set out on pages 5 to 8.

This report is made solely to the trustees, as a body, in accordance with the regulations made under Section 44 of the Charities Act 1993, as amended by the Charities Act 2006. 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 an independent examiner's 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

The trustees (who are also directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to an audit under company law and is eligible or independent examination it is my responsibility to:

Examine the accounts under section 43 of the Act; to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 43(7)(b) of the Act; and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of independent examiner's statement

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting 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 seeks explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would by 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 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;

have not been met: or

2.) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understand of the accounts to be reached.

The reserve was also available as a contingency against cost over-runs during the Dhamma Hall project, as cash flow needed to be carefully considered at various stages. However, by the end of 2019, the Dhamma Hall project had effectively been completed, and there are no immediate large capital projects planned, although there are some tentative ideas for further ahead.

' The Trust s unrestricted cash assets over and above the reserve are designated for future capital projects. Currently these assets are held in a current account as the trustees take a cautious view on riskier investment, interest rates in deposit accounts are exceptionally low, and the sums involved are relatively small.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE HARTRIDGE BUDDHIST MONASTERY TRUST LTD

I report on the accounts of Hartridge Buddhist Monastery Trust for the year ended 31 December 2022, which are set out on pages 5 to 8.

This report is made solely to the trustees, as a body, in accordance with the regulations made under Section 44 of the Charities Act 1993, as amended by the Charities Act 2006. 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 an independent examiner's 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

The trustees (who are also directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to an audit under company law and is eligible or independent examination it is my responsibility to:

Examine the accounts under section 43 of the Act; to follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 43(7)(b) of the Act; and to state whether particular matters have come to my attention.

Basis of independent examiner's statement

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting 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 seeks explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would by 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 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;

have not been met: or

2.) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understand of the accounts to be reached.

Review of Activities

The Trust is the succession Trust of the Devon Vihara Trust (Charity no. 289636)

The main financial responsibility of the trust is the development, maintenance and upkeep of Hartridge Buddhist monastery. This continues to attract members of the public of all faiths who are interested to learn about, or deepen their understanding of Buddhism and are able to visit or stay at the monastery.

The monastery is the focal point for an extensive community. It provides spiritual support to and is generously supported by expatriate members of the Thai, Sri Lankan, Cambodian and Lao communities, as well as UK born Buddhists. The annual Kathina and Vesak ceremonies held at the monastery both attract 100-200 visitors.

The monasteries are open to the public on a daily basis and all are welcome to join in the formal meditation and puja activities. Some visitors request to stay for an extended period in order to deepen their practice of the Buddhist religion. Others gain benefit from the peaceful and calm woodland environment where ecological conservation is being undertaken through the contribution of volunteers.

Meditation classes, which are open to all members of the public whatever their faith and personal circumstances, are run on a regular basis. These classes are provided free of charge. Mindfulness meditation and the cultivation of loving kindness are practices with proven therapeutic benefits which have been adopted and adapted by healthcare professionals.

Meditation classes and residential retreats at other locations, as well as public talks and lectures, are given during the year, and these include visits to schools and other organisations.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES CONTINUED

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

After the monastic winter retreat, which ended at the start of April, the activity on the monastery gradually returned to pre-covid-19 routines. The size of the resident community varied between five and seven, which meant that the monastery was full much of the time. Usually there would be two to four lay guests at any one time.

Meditation workshops were well attended, and consequently extra workshops were held. However Sunday evening talks were generally less well attended than pre-covid. Festival days were well attended, including the annual Kathina festival in October. Several retreats were taught elsewhere, and a successful Thai weekend retreat was held at the monastery. Inter-monastery visits and exchanges resumed, with visits to Harnham, and to and from both Amaravati and Chithurst communities.

Total donations during the year were the highest ever, with a total of £122,394 received. Of this amount £36,600 was towards the construction of new kutis, and spending on the kutis in the year was £35,828. The Trust spent £23,379 on the day-to-day running expenditure of Hartridge, of which £834 was on administration for the independent examiners fees and £3,932 on a varity of sundry capital items.

Unrestricted income was £84,319 of which £5,916 was Gift Aid from HMRC, and £1,607 was payment under the Renewable Heat Incentive scheme for heat generated by the log boiler. A restricted travel fund expended £2,163 on running costs of the car and received £929 leaving a balance of £1,945 at the year end The Welfare fund expended £894 and received £545 leaving a balance of £6,001 at 31st December 2022.

One new kuti was completed during the year, and a second was nearing completion. A PA system was installed in the Dhamma Hall, and the roof of one of the older kutis was replaced with material recycled from buildings demolised at Amaravati monastery.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Reserves and Investment Policy

The Trust holds a contingency reserve of £15,000, primarily to cover any sudden and maJor fall in voluntary income. This sum represents approximately one year of core expenditure, so it is thought that if a situation arose where either short or long term income seemed in doubt, the reserve would provide a period of between one to three years for the trustees to consider how best to proceed. The reserve was also available as a contingency against cost over-runs during the Dhamma Hall project, as cash flow needed to be carefully considered at various stages. However, by the end of 2019, the Dhamma Hall project had effectively been completed, and there are no immediate large capital projects planned, although there are some tentative ideas for further ahead.

' The Trust s unrestricted cash assets over and above the reserve are designated for future capital projects. Currently these assets are held in a current account as the trustees take a cautious view on riskier investment, interest rates in deposit accounts are exceptionally low, and the sums involved are relatively small.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE HARTRIDGE BUDDHIST MONASTERY TRUST LTD

I report on the accounts of Hartridge Buddhist Monastery Trust for the year ended 31 December 2022, which are set out on pages 5 to 8.

This report is made solely to the trustees, as a body, in accordance with the regulations made under Section 44 of the Charities Act 1993, as amended by the Charities Act 2006. 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 an independent examiner's 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

The trustees (who are also directors of the company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 43(2) of the Charities Act 1993 (the Act) and that an independent examination is needed.

Having satisfied myself that the charity is not subject to an audit under company law and is eligible or independent examination it is my responsibility to:

Basis of independent examiner's statement

My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting 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 seeks explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would by 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 set out in the statement below.

Independent examiner's statement

In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention·
