East End Community Foundation

Trustees’ report

For the year ended 31 March 2022

Introduction

The East End Community Foundation (EECF) has been advising and co‐ordinating charitable giving since 1990. Our purpose is to promote the relief of poverty and we do this by staying abreast of social needs locally and advising, matching and administering charitable donations on behalf of individuals, companies and statutory bodies committed to supporting those most in need in Tower Hamlets, Hackney, Newham and the City of London.

As a grassroots grant maker we have excellent knowledge of the charitable sector across East London and we are uniquely connected to its people and challenges. Our experience, expertise and research provide us with a thorough understanding of the causes and solutions to tackling poverty and our services are tailored to meet the specific requirements of both the community and our fund holders and donors.

As an advisor, we are dedicated to ensuring our fund holders and donors get the most from their charitable investments, educating them on local issues and bringing them closer to the causes they are seeking to support. Our experienced staff team provide our fund holders and donors with a comprehensive service of support, including advice on effective charitable giving in the East End through to full management of their funds.

For our grantees, we are a vital source of financial support and we work closely with them from application stage through to monitoring and evaluation. We also provide a Funding Plus+ offer through which we deliver a volunteer brokerage service, sourcing corporate volunteers to support them with a wide range of needs, as well as delivering workshops to promote funding opportunities and advice on crafting good quality grant requests.

In addition, EECF occasionally directly delivers programmes that tackle inequality and address the East End’s most pressing social needs.

Aims and Objectives for the Public Benefit

EECF exists and operates for the public benefit. Through its grant making and co‐ordination of charitable giving locally it works to reduce inequality and poverty within its geographical remit.

The formal objective of EECF, as set out in the Memorandum and Articles of Association, is to promote the relief of poverty and sickness of persons within the London Boroughs of Tower Hamlets, Hackney, Newham and City of London. With the full breadth of social needs existing in the East End, EECF has prioritised support to young people, older people and digital exclusion and has done so based on the learning it derived from its Covid Emergency Fund and it’s Vital Issues research report.

The Board is satisfied that its wide range of grant making programmes and the other charitable activities it delivers meet the requirement of providing public benefit as defined by the Charity Commission.

S tructure, Governance And Management

The East End Community Foundation (EECF) is a registered charity (No. 1147789) and company limited by guarantee (08104415). It was incorporated on 13[th] June 2012 and became operational on 1[st] October 2012, following the merger of Isle of Dogs Community Foundation (IDCF) and St Katharine & Shadwell Trust (SKST). The trustees, who are also Directors of the charitable company, present their report and audited financial statements for the year ending 31[st] March 2022. In presenting this report the trustees have complied with the Statement of Recommended Practice, Accounting and Reporting by Charities (FRS102) (the Charities SORP), the Companies Act 2006 and applicable United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.

EECF is a membership organisation with four classes of membership (voluntary sector, business, statutory and individual) and only fully paid‐up members can stand for a seat on the Board when a vacancy arises. Prospective trustees are interviewed by a panel of trustees which makes a recommendation to the full Board. The Board has the power to make appointments but these must be presented to members at the AGM for ratification.

East End Community Foundation

Trustees’ report (continued)

For the year ended 31 March 2022

The board of trustees may consist of no more than 15 trustees or no fewer than 9. Our Articles state trustees can serve a term of 3 years before having to stand for re‐election. Trustees who have served 3 consecutive terms shall not serve for a further term commencing earlier than the end of the Annual General Meeting following that at which he/she retired from office. On the 31[st] March 2022 EECF had 11 trustees. EECF seeks to possess a Board that has equal representation from the following classes of membership classes: Business, Statutory and Voluntary.

Trustees may co‐opt up to 5 individuals who bring specific skills or expertise not already represented on the Board. Further expertise is also brought in the form of ‘contributors’. These individuals support specific aspects of EECF’s work and their involvement is generally confined to a committee. Neither co‐optees or contributors have voting rights, their appointments are for a term of 12 months and are reviewed annually by the board. On the 31[st] March 2022 EECF had 3 co‐optees.

Board of Trustees

For the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, the Board of Trustees is regarded as the Board of Directors of the company.

EECF has a formal trustee induction process that includes receipt of a trustee handbook and a one to one meeting with the Chief Executive. Where appropriate this is followed by a further meeting prior to their first board meeting to take them through the agenda and provide useful background information. Trustees are also encouraged to visit some of our grantees to better understand the needs of the community and the impact of our work.

No remuneration or expenses were paid to trustees or co‐optees during the year. All declarations of interest are held on a formal register and trustees must raise these, where relevant, at the start of every board and committee meeting. In those cases, this is noted in the meeting minutes and trustees are excluded from the discussion and decision‐making process.

The trustees of the company during the period and to the date of signing this report are as follows:

Trustees’ report (continued)

For the year ended 31 March 2022

Management and Committees

The day to day running of the charity is delegated to the Chief Executive, Tracey Walsh, and her staff. The Board is responsible for setting strategies and policies for the charity and ensuring they are implemented. To assist the Board with its work EECF has four Committees, the functions of which and members and contributors for the period ending 31[st] March 2022 were as follows:

Finance & Administration Grants Fundraising & Development James Wright (Chair) Katherine Webster (Chair) Rick Watson (Chair) Howard Dawber Vicky Clark Howard Dawber Rick Watson Sister Christine Frost Guy Nicholson Sahidur Rahman Co‐optees / Contributors Co‐optees / Contributors Co‐optees / Contributors Adrian Greenwood Stella Bailey Adrian Greenwood Mark Sherlock Rita Bensley Nominations Jim MacHale (Chair) Vicky Clark Howard Dawber Shah Rahman Katherine Webster

Finance & Administration

Staff Remuneration

Staff salaries are set in line with similar sized charitable organisations and are benchmarked with recruitment consultants. We also have a recruitment advisor co‐opted to the Board. In addition to trustees, key management personnel in the period to 31[st] March 2022 were Tracey Walsh (CEO), Kate Turner (Director of Development & Communications) and Paige Murphy (Head of Grants and Community Engagement). All staff, including key management personnel, are eligible for an annual salary increase of 2% subject to meeting a specific grade as part of EECF’s appraisal process. At the end of this financial year, trustees agreed for the financial year 2022/23, staff are to receive a cost of living increase of 4%.

Trustees are not remunerated for their role with the Foundation. They are able to claim relevant expenses such as travel, but no expenses were claimed in the period.

Risk Management

Alongside the Finance & Administration committee, the CEO and Finance Manager identify and review the major risks to which the charity is exposed and have established systems to mitigate those risks. EECF’s most significant potential risk relates to a drop in value of its endowment, leading to a loss of income, which would materialise as a reduction in grant making and contribution to overheads. In addressing this issue, the charity regularly reviews its investment strategy and the performance of its investment managers, details of which are listed on page 2. The loss of key staff is also considered a significant risk, so the Foundation regularly undertakes salary benchmarking, has introduced an employee assistance programme which offers access to wellbeing and mental health advice and support and has continued to offer hybrid working arrangements.

Equal Opportunities

EECF is committed to a policy of equal opportunities in the selection, training, career development and promotion of all people, regardless of age, gender, marital status, race, colour, religion, disability or sexual orientation. The charity encourages people with a disability to participate fully in organisational activities, consistent with their ability, so that they can maximise the use of their knowledge, experience and skills in the charity’s work. During the year the team participated in a five week DEI training programme and drafted a statement that will be presented to the Board for consideration later this calendar year.

For the year ended 31 March 2022

Grant Making

As a grassroots grant maker, EECF grants are awarded to registered charities, voluntary and community groups and other not for profit organisations that have their own constitution and bank account. All grantees are based within or delivering services directly benefiting residents within Tower Hamlets, Hackney, Newham and City of London.

Transparency is important to the Foundation so all awarded grants are published on our website, updated at regular intervals throughout the year.

As a Community Foundation our mission is to support grassroots activities and, as such, our grants programme has been designed to do just that. Grants vary in value depending on the guidelines of each grant making fund we manage and start from £200. Funded activities and services are broad ranging and can be for one‐off items of expenditure, e.g. equipment, social activities and training, through to quality initiatives that address the high levels of unemployment that exist locally. Our grant application and monitoring process is reflective of the value and purpose of grants being sought and awarded i.e. lower value grant requests have a simplified application form and monitoring requirement compared to higher value grants.

Grants are awarded from EECF’s own financial resources in addition to the charitable funds we manage on behalf of our fund holders and third parties. Full details of all grant awards are listed in Note 6.

Other Charitable Activity

As a philanthropy advisor, EECF is focused on understanding the community’s needs and directing donor funds to the charitable organisations best placed to deliver. But, in addition to this work EECF provides a ‘Funding Plus+’ offer and directly delivers a small number of initiatives for the benefit of the community. Our Funding Plus+ offer supports the voluntary sector with capacity building activities including sourcing corporate volunteers and delivering workshops on funding opportunity and how to construct a strong case for support. We also provide 1‐2‐1 support to applicants, particularly those smaller organisations run by volunteers. Our workshops had previously been held in person but moved online during the pandemic and as a result we saw participation almost double. For this reason online delivery has continued and attendance remains high.

Our Winter Appeal is an example of direct delivery that complements our grant making. Throughout November and December EECF co‐ordinated the delivery of care packages for older people experiencing hardship and isolation. Our Winter Appeal initiative has run for more than a decade and reaches pensioners most in need. EECF is supported in the packing and distribution of care packages by City and Canary Wharf based employees as well as some of our voluntary sector grantees. In 2021/22, 815 care packages were distributed.

Financial Review

Investment Strategy

To complement the skills and expertise of the Finance & Administration Committee, EECF continues to benefit from independent pro‐bono guidance from Mark Sherlock of Hermes Investment Management in reviewing and monitoring the performance of our investment managers and relevance of our investment policy.

All three longstanding investment managers (Sarasin, CCLA and Investec) engaged in regular communication with the Finance Manager and Finance & Administration Committee to discuss performance and investment strategy in addition to providing quarterly performance reports. We also had regular communication with Eden Tree prior to the year end to negotiate our new contract. We enabled Eden Tree to liaise directly with Investec on the transition of assets which was well managed by both parties. EECF is grateful to Investec for its service and for the smooth handover.

EECF’s Investment Policy sets out the Foundation’s commitment to ethical and responsible investment and remit to maintain the level of income in real terms, seeking a return of at least 4%, and to increase capital growth based on a real return of at least 6%.

East End Community Foundation

Trustees’ report (continued)

For the year ended 31 March 2022

Reserves Policy

EECF’s reserves policy states the charity should aim to keep a minimum reserve of £640k of unrestricted funds to enable it to deliver a grants programme addressing social needs across its area of benefit, to meet the associated administrative costs of grant making and having core staff focused on donor development. At 31 March 2022, EECF had total resources of £29.9m of which £27.4m was for designated or restricted purposes and/or forms part of the permanent endowment funds. The unrestricted balance of the funds amounted to £2.5m which meets the reserves policy requirement.

Designated funds of £4.2m remain to support any shortfall in our annual grant making budget (£0.5m), to offer an endowment match incentive programme (£1.2m) and to directly invest in property as a means of diversifying our income stream (£2.5m). The purpose of our designated fund will be reviewed in 2022/23.

REVIEW OF THE PERIOD

The year ending 31 March 2022 was another busy and productive period. The Charity:

Year after year EECF’s achieves more than it did in the prior year and this is something we are extremely proud of. Regardless of the challenges that come our way, to effectively and meaningfully invest in our local communities is always our priority. 2021/22 was no different, and post delivery of our Covid‐19 Emergency Fund we transitioned back to our original income and grant making strategy, and carefully considered how best to strategically invest our limited resources when social needs locally have increased as a result of the pandemic.

Income for the period to 31 March 2022 totalled £2,475,612 (2021: £4,826,395) against which total expenditure of £2,349,011 (2021: £4,167,026) was incurred. As expected, both were lower than the prior year when our Covid‐19 Emergency Response Funds was at its peak. EECF defines its donor categories as Business, Trusts & Foundations, Statutory and Individuals. Income is generally highest under Business but in 2021/22 this was far exceeded by Statutory and Trusts & Foundations as a result of our effective partnership with the London Borough of Tower Hamlets and National Emergencies Trust. As the UK returns to a level of normality, we expect to revert back to operating in line with the financial projections set out in our business plan, but intend to capitalise on the clear benefits of collaborative giving and maintain partnership arrangements with business who worked with us for the first time during the pandemic.

All Board and Committee meetings went ahead as scheduled and trustees and supporters remained actively engaged. Having served their full term we said farewell to our Chair Howard Dawber and our longest standing voluntary sector trustee, Sister Christine. Both were integral to EECF’s success and to acknowledge their contribution both were made Patrons of the charity and we look forward to engaging in this new working relationship.

East End Community Foundation

Trustees’ report (continued)

For the year ended 31 March 2022

EECF’s business plan covers a five year period to 31[st] March 2022 with clear criteria to guide the work of the charity. For 2022/23 we agreed to operate in line with our approved budget and focus our efforts on progressing our Life Chances campaign. Information on our wider objectives for the year ending 31[st] March 2022 are detailed below. Achievement or significant progress was accomplished on each objective, and where progress was slower than anticipated this was a result of the pandemic and therefore not within our control.

Grant Making

In the twelve months to 31[st] March 2022, EECF received 479 funding requests totalling £2.9m. We awarded 258 grants totalling £1.3m based on budget availability to support a wide range of social needs. Grants ranged from £292 to £35k.

At EECF we have always embraced the diversity of our community and the ability that only local grassroots community organisations can have in identifying and reaching those most in need of support. As in previous years we have awarded funding to a diverse range of not‐for‐profit organisations serving our vibrant community here in the East End.

In addition to the financial support we provide in the form of grants, we continued to deliver well attended workshops for the local voluntary sector to advise on funding opportunities and how to craft quality grant applications. We also provided the same audience with our corporate volunteer brokerage service to aid their work, and continued to deliver our Winter Appeal to directly support the needs of vulnerable older people locally.

Business Development

Despite neighbouring the wealthy areas of Canary Wharf and the City of London the East End of London suffers from high levels of deprivation, adversely affecting young people and older people. Unfortunately, these needs and the localised approach required to effectively address them are often overlooked by those with the ability to give in favour of higher profile national charities.

To significantly improve our impact and achieve meaningful long term change for the communities we serve, EECF is committed to challenging the approach of donors to seek a more collaborative approach to community investment locally.

Develop plans for our freehold property in Poplar

The pandemic and the UK’s departure from the EU has had a significant negative impact on the property market, so despite shortlisting a preferred development partner we chose not to formalise our arrangement during the period covered by this report. However, EECF remained committed to ensuring we have a comprehensive offer that is right for both the charity and local community and dedicated time during the year to actively contribute to the Local Authority’s South Poplar Master Plan, Tall Building Strategy and to landowner discussions. As we approached the end of the 2021/22 financial year, CBRE re‐marketed our site and received a good level of interest from a range of well‐established property developers. Shortlisting and interviews have since taken place and a preferred bidder was agreed by EECF’s Board in May 2022. Legal negotiations are currently underway.

Staff and Trustee Recruitment

We continued to operate for much of the year slightly under‐resourced but made significant strides in building our team with the appointment of a Director of Development and a Communications Manager. Capacity was added in key areas of work by utilising freelancers and we also participated in the Government’s Kickstart scheme as a means of creating valuable work experience opportunities for local young people who were unemployed. The freelance approach and Kickstart programme both worked extremely well.

Trustees remained engaged throughout 2021/22 and having held the majority of board meetings on‐line, in January 2022 the charity took the opportunity to meet in person, in a community setting.

8

East End Community Foundation

Trustees’ report (continued)

For the year ended 31 March 2022

EECF said farewell to long‐standing Chair, Howard Dawber having served his maximum term, and welcomed new Chair, Bronek Masojada following a comprehensive recruitment process undertaken through a specialist recruiter. We also bid farewell to Sister Christine Frost, who had also served her maximum term. Although not able to serve as trustees, EECF was keen for them both to remain engaged. Howard Dawber and Sister Christine Frost were appointed as our first ever Patrons so that our positive and long standing working relationship with both continue.

During the year four trustees stepped down and two new trustees were appointed. By the time these accounts were approved EECF had made two further appointments to the Board under the Business and Individual classes of membership. All trustees are detailed on page 6. Recruitment for the remaining vacancies is underway but EECF continues to possess an effective, committed and cohesive Board of Trustees.

Plans For The Future

In 2022/23 EECF will focus its efforts on achieving the following:

Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities

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 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 charity and of the income and expenditure of the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:

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 to 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 auditor’s report to the members of East End Community Foundation For the year ended 31 March 2022

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements of East End Community Foundation (the ‘charitable company’) for the year ended 31 March 2022 which comprise the statement of financial activities, the balance sheet, and statement of cash flows, the principal accounting policies and the notes to the financial statements. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland’ (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).

In our opinion, the financial statements:

Basis for opinion

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the auditor’s

responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charitable company in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Conclusions relating to going concern

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.

Other information

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report and financial statements, other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report and financial statements. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.

11

Independent auditor’s report to the members of East End Community Foundation For the year ended 31 March 2022

We have nothing to report in this regard.

Opinions on other matters prescribed by the Companies Act 2006

In our opinion, based on the work undertaken in the course of the audit:

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charitable company and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the trustees’ report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Companies Act 2006 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:

Responsibilities of trustees

As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement, the trustees (who are also the directors of the charitable company for the purposes of company law) are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

In preparing the financial statements, the trustees are responsible for assessing the charitable company’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the trustees either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non‐compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below:

12

Independent auditor’s report to the members of East End Community Foundation For the year ended 31 March 2022

Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non‐compliance with laws and regulations, was as follows:

We assessed the susceptibility of the charitable company’s financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by:

To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we:

In response to the risk of irregularities and non‐compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to:

There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of noncompliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non‐compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the trustees and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any.

Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion.

East End Community Foundation

Notes to the financial statements

For the year ended 31 March 2022

1. Principal accounting policies

a) Basis of preparation

EECF is a registered charity, limited by guarantee, in the United Kingdom. In the event of the charity being wound up, the liability in respect of the guarantee is limited to £1 per member of the charity. The address of the registered office is given in the charity information on page 2 of these financial statements. The nature of the charity's operation and principal activities are to promote the relief of poverty and sickness of persons within the London Boroughs of Tower Hamlets, Hackney, Newham and City of London. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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) ‐ (Charities SORP), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Companies Act 2006.

Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy or note.

b) Public benefit entity

The charitable company meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102.

c) Going concern

The trustees have considered the working capital requirements of the company. The trustees believes that the company has adequate financial resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future and meet it's liabilities and obligations as they fall due for at least the next twelve months. The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charitable company's ability to continue as a going concern.

The trustees do not consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period.

d) Income

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and that the amount can be measured reliably.

For legacies, entitlement is taken as the earlier of the date on which either: the charity is aware that probate has been granted, the estate has been finalised and notification has been made by the executor(s) to the charity that a distribution will be made, or when a distribution is received from the estate. Receipt of a legacy, in whole or in part, is only considered probable when the amount can be measured reliably and the charity has been notified of the executor’s intention to make a distribution. Where legacies have been notified to the charity, or the charity is aware of the granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is a treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if material.

Income received in advance of the provision of a specified service is deferred until the criteria for income recognition are met. Investment income is earned through holding assets for investment purposes such as shares and property. It includes dividends, interest and rent. Where it is not practicable to identify investment management costs incurred within a scheme with reasonable accuracy the investment income is reported net of these costs. It is included when the amount can be measured reliably. Interest income is recognised using the effective interest method and dividend and rent income is recognised as the charity’s right to receive payment is established.

Notes to the financial statements (continued)

For the year ended 31 March 2022

e) Donations of gifts, services and facilities

f) Interest receivable

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank.

g) Gift Aid

Gift Aid is recovered by EECF and third parties on behalf of EECF, on donations from UK taxpayers and is recognised in the accounts when it is received.

h) Fund accounting

Restricted funds are to be used for specific purposes as laid down by the donor. Expenditure which meets these criteria is charged to the fund.

Unrestricted funds are donations and other incoming resources received or generated for the charitable purposes. Designated funds are unrestricted funds earmarked by the trustees for particular purposes. Endowment Funds represent those assets which must be held permanently by the charity in line with the donor's wishes.

i) Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings:

Raising funds relate to the costs incurred by the charitable company in inducing third parties to make voluntary contributions to it, including investment managers fee, as well as the cost of any activities with a fundraising purpose.

Charitable activities includes the costs of delivering services and activities undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs, as well as the payment of grants.

Grants payable to third parties are within the charitable objectives. Where unconditional grants are offered, this is accrued as soon as the recipient is notified of the grant, as this gives rise to a reasonable expectation that the recipient will receive the grants. Where grants are conditional relating to performance then the grant is only accrued when any unfulfilled conditions are outside of the control of the charity.

j) Allocation of support costs

Support costs are those that assist the work of the charity but do not directly represent charitable activities and include office costs, governance costs, administrative payroll costs. They are incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the charity and include project management carried out at Headquarters. Where support costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to cost of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities on a basis consistent with use of the resources.

k) Operating leases

Rental charges are charged on a straight line basis over the term of the lease.

East End Community Foundation

Notes to the financial statements (continued)

For the year ended 31 March 2022

l) Tangible fixed assets

Items of equipment are capitalised where the purchase price exceeds £500. Depreciation costs are allocated to activities on the basis of the use of the related assets in those activities. Assets are reviewed for impairment if circumstances indicate their carrying value may exceed their net realisable value and value in use.

Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write down the cost of each asset to its estimated residual value over its expected useful life. The depreciation rates in use are as follows: Office equipment ‐ over 4 years Computer equipment ‐ over 4 years

The charity is the legal owner of various properties within the East London area which have been offered to third parties under long‐lease arrangement at peppercorn rent for the benefit of the local community. It is the trustees' intention to offer these properties to third parties for the benefit of the community for the foreseeable future. As such these properties have not been recognised in these accounts.

The charity is also the legal owner of a property situated in Poplar, currently occupied by a college under a short form lease arrangement. As disclosed within note 22, EECF intends for the property to be redeveloped in the near future as part of a wider regeneration plan for the local area, following which, this property will also be offered for community benefit for the long term. At present, due to fluctuating regeneration plans in the local area, there is significant difficulty in determining a fair value for the site. In addition consent is required from the Greater London Authority before any works may take place. Given the aforementioned, no value has been placed on this property within these accounts.

m) Listed investments

Investments are a form of basic financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction value and subsequently measured at their fair value as at the balance sheet date using the closing quoted market price. Any change in fair value will be recognised in the statement of financial activities . The charity does not acquire put options, derivatives or other complex financial instruments.

n) Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

o) Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account. Cash balances exclude any funds held on behalf of service users.

p) Creditors and provisions

Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due.

The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.

q) Pensions

r) Judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

The preparation of the financial statements requires judgements, estimations, and assumptions to be made that affect the reported values of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. The nature of estimation and judgement means that actual outcome could differ from expectation

21. Legal status of the charity

The charity is a company limited by guarantee and has no share capital. The liability of each member in the event of winding up is limited to £1.

22. Properties

The London Docklands Development Corporation, as part of its de‐designation transferred the freeholds of numerous properties in the area occupied on long leases at nominal rent. The duty as freeholder is to ensure that the properties continue to be used for community benefit. The opportunity for EECF to financially benefit from these properties remains remote or subject to many contingent matters prior to valuation, therefore no amounts are included in these financial statements. The exception to this is the Workhouse site at Poplar that is on a short term lease and is an area deemed for redevelopment. EECF has a professional team of advisors and having developed a brief they marketed the redevelopment opportunity for this site in the summer of 2019. Applicants were shortlisted but presentations were delayed due to COVID‐19. The process re‐commenced in early 2022 and again led to significant interest from reputable property developers. Once a suitable development opportunity and partner are identified and planning permission is secured, the value of the site will be clear and the asset will be brought on to our balance sheet.
