## **CAMBRIDGE LAND ECONOMY ADVISORY BOARD (A Company Limited by Guarantee)** 

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2024** 

The Trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the Cambridge Land Economy Advisory Board ("CLEAB") for the year ending 31 July 2024. The annual report serves the purposes of both a Trustees' report and a directors' report under company law. The Trustees confirm that the annual report and financial statements of the charitable company comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charitable company's governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (second edition October 2019, effective 1 January 2019). 

Since the Charity qualifies as small under section 382, the strategic report required of large and medium companies under the Companies Act 2006 (Strategic Report and Directors' Report) Regulations 2013 is not required. 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Objectives** 

The Charity's objectives are specifically restricted to the advancement of education and research by the Department of Land Economy (or any successor to such department) of the University of Cambridge through the provision of advice and financial support and the promotion of the department's reputation and activities. 

During the period, the Trustees have borne in mind the Charity Commission's Guidance on the principles of public benefit. 

## **ACHEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Review of activities** 

During the year, CLEAB has been recruiting members, who pay a membership fee of £500 (2023: £500) and are invited to donate an additional £2,500 (2023: £2,500), although this is optional. Despite being optional, nearly all dues paying members have chosen to make the additional donation. During the year, the Charity had 40 members (2023: 38). 

CLEAB’s activities during the year continued in a variety of forms and for a variety of beneficiaries: 

- Undergraduates have benefitted from financial support (such as for the annual CULS Careers Fair along with a student essay prize), from individual mentoring and from direct contact with the Board at its annual dinner for second year students, when the guests can discuss career options and generally find out more about the real estate world. 

- Graduates also benefitted from CLEAB’s support in mentoring opportunities to meet and to quiz members of the Board informally over drinks and/or dinner. 

- Faculty have also made good use of their opportunities to discuss strategic opportunities, including CLEAB’s continued support of the Department's ongoing discussions with the University about a new building for the Department, to support the new Head of Department and to provide both continued and new support for recruitment, along with website hosting. 

- CLEAB continued to support the Communications and Outreach post, with the second of three instalments being settled this financial year. CLEAB also committed to topping-up the salary of a Senior Teaching Associate in Real Estate, Economics and Finance for a further three years. 

This is all in addition to CLEAB’s key work in improving connections between the Department and industrial partners and research sponsors. 

After making appropriate enquiries to satisfy themselves of the stability and financial health of the Charity, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational

existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason, the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies. 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Financial Review** 

During the year, the Charity received donations of £66,250 (2023: £78,750) including reclaimed gift aid of £1,250 (2023: £1,250) and membership fees of £13,500 (2023: £15,000). Expenditure on charitable activities comprised grants of £10,500 and a £52,500 reversal of a grant to the Department of Land Economy to fund an administative assistant (2023: £5,450). A total of £6,873 (2023: £4,775) was spent on meetings and events. Secretarial costs of £19,469 (2023: £17,070) were incurred as well as governance costs of £2,220 (2023: £2,100). Website hosting costs amounted to £300 (2023: £300). There was net income for the year of £96,277 (2023: £64,055), which has been added to the brought forward funds of £169,123 to result in funds carried forward of £265,400. 

## **Reserves policy** 

Reserves are held to enable the Charity to deal with unexpected events, such as sudden losses of income and increases in expenditure. 

Total funds carried forward as at 31 July 2024 were £265,400, all of which are free reserves with no restrictions. The Trustees are aiming to maintain a minimum reserve level of £100,000 to meet 6 months expenditure plus the potential cost of one or more PhD studentship(s); Department priorities for CLEAB funding are currently being discussed, which include the potential for some matched funding for PhD studentships from one of the Cambridge colleges. The Trustees recognise that they are currently holding a higher sum than the policy, and will continue to explore opportunities with the Department to spend the surplus on charitable activities so that free reserves are brought in line with the target. 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** 

## **Constitution** 

Cambridge Land Economy Advisory Board is a Company limited by guarantee which was incorporated on 12 March 2012 and is governed by its Memorandum and Articles of Association dated 7 March 2012. The Company obtained charitable status on 25 April 2012. 

## **Methods of appointment or election of Trustees** 

Trustees are appointed who will bring practical and valuable skills to the Charity. The Trustees who served during the year were: 

Professor C M Lizieri Mr J H Zehner Mr S H T Clark Mr I Marcus Mr D R Howarth 

Please note that Simon Clark has retired from his active role on CLEAB as of 8 December 2023; it is the Board’s intention that the composition of Trustees be reviewed and updated in line with current active participation. 

## **Organisational structure and decision making policies** 

The management of the Charity is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected and co opted under the

terms of the Articles of Association. The day-to-day administration of the Charity is carried out by a part-time administrator who is paid a monthly fee of £1,600 plus a Christmas bonus. 

## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES** 

The Trustees (who are also the directors of the Charity for the purposes of company law) are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

Company law requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year. 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 Charity and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, 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 of the Charities SORP (FRS 102); 

- make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards (FRS 102) have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue in business. 

The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Charity's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2024** 

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF CAMBRIDGE LAND ECONOMY ADVISORY BOARD ('the Charity')** 

I report to the charity Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Charity for the year ended 31 July 2024. 

## **RESPONSIBILITIES AND BASIS OF REPORT** 

As the Trustees of the Charity (and 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 Charity 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 the Charity's accounts 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: 

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Charity 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. 

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. 

This report is made solely to the Charity's Trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. 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 or for this report.

## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 JULY 2024** 

## **2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)** 

## **2.4 INCOME** 

All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably. 

Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid is recognised at the time of the donation. 

Membership fee income is recognised in the period to which it relates. Membership income owing to the Charity at the year end is included in debtors. Membership income received in advance for future periods is carried forward as deferred income.

## **2.5 EXPENDITURE** 

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. 

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis. All expenses including support costs and governance costs are allocated to applicable expenditure headings. 

Support costs including governance costs are those costs incurred in support of expenditure on the objects of the Charity. Governance costs are those incurred in connection with administration of the Charity and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements. 

Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Charity's objectives, as well as any associated support costs. 

Grants payable are charged in the year when the offer is made except in those cases where the offer is conditional, such grants being recognised as expenditure when the conditions attaching are fulfilled.

All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.

## **2.9 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS**
