OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
The trustees confirm that they have had due regard to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit when reviewing Friends of Danes Hill's aims and objectives and in planning activities and priorities for the year. Details of how the charity's activities are for the public benefit are detailed below.
The charity's objectives are to advance the education of the pupils of the school by:
-
(a) Providing and assisting in the provision of facilities for education at the school and as an ancillary thereto;
-
(b) Fostering more extended relationships between the staff, parents and others associated with the school;

The charity managed to generate a voluntary income of £34,156 (2020 - £56,655). Total expenditure for the period was £31,477 (2020 - £124,185), leaving a net increase in funds of £2,679 (2020 - net reduction in funds of £67,530).
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Reserves policy
In the Trustees' view, the reserves should provide the charity with adequate financial stability and the means for it to meet its charitable objectives for the foreseeable future.
The trustees propose to maintain the charity's reserves at a minimum level of £20,000 to ensure it can meet any unforeseen emergency or unexpected need and to ensure sufficient reserves to meet the costs of its fundraising activities.
The trustees review the amount of reserves that are required to ensure that they are adequate to fulfil the charity's continuing obligations.
The charity had closing reserves of £42,658 as at 31 July 2021 (£39,979 as at 31 July 2020).

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2021
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Organisational structure
All parents or guardians of children attending the school are automatically friends of the charity, and any other person connected with the school can become a friend if approved by an ordinary resolution of the members.
Friends are not members of the charity and have none of the duties or rights of members under the articles, although they may attend general meetings of the charity as observers.
The maximum number of trustees (and directors) is seven who are to be voted in at the Annual General Meeting of the Representatives each year. On 12 September 2013 a resolution was passed to co-opt an additional trustee in accordance with Article 23.4 of the Articles and therefore the charity can appoint up to eight trustees. Trustees are members.
Every year each class of Bevendean, the Lower School, the Middle School and Upper School may appoint one friend to be a representative of the charity.
The trustees may appoint any number of friends to be representatives of the charity, up to a maximum of fifteen board-appointed representatives at any one time.
The charity has no connected charities or companies.
Risk management
The trustees have a duty to identify and review the risks to which the Charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error.

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Friends Of Danes Hill ('the Company')
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 July 2021.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) 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
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:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
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
-
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.
