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, FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Charities SORP "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)". ## **Objectives and activities** The object of the Trust is to fulfil general charitable purposes by making donations and grants to charitable entities directly involved in first line charitable activities. The Trust donates to organisations with an established track record and that show evidence of effective results. The Trustees favour small and medium size entities where objectives are well defined and focussed. Trustees anticipate that grants will cover span a spectrum of objectives, methodologies and organisations. The Trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's general guidance on public benefit when reviewing Charity's aims and objectives and setting grant making policy for the year. The Dalgleish Trust made 71 grants in the 2024/25 financial year to 59 charitable entities totalling £313,475. The average grant overall was £4,415 and the average grant per entity was £5,313. ## _Grant making policy_ Charitable causes and entities are typically located by a Trustee and then reviewed by the Trustees collectively against criteria for consideration. After careful review, the Trustees will decide for or against and any proposed quantum of grant. Potential donations and grants are located, reviewed and decided by the Trustees at their absolute discretion. Trustees do not generally respond to external speculative applications. This follows from Trustees' proactive approach in seeking out causes, charities and voluntary bodies for which they have or can reach an adequate understanding. ## **Achievements and performance** ## _Significant activities and achievements against objectives_ The Trustees made 71 grants this year to 59 charitable entities totalling £313,475 (as shown in the notes to the financial statements). The average grant was £4,415 whilst the average grant per entity was £5,313. All entities were registered charities in the UK, with the exception of a few registered overseas and one entity being a person carrying on charitable activities. ## _Investment performance_ The investments are held and managed by two financial investment managers - Rathbones Investment Management Ltd ("Rathbones") and Activus Wealth Ltd ("Activus"). ## **Rathbone's Portfolio** During the year £71,568 (2024: £66,780) was received in investment income from the Rathbone's portfolio. Along with this amount, realised and unrealised gains of £90,563 were made. During the year, a total of £3,708,000 was liquidated. The value of the fund at the year end, including unrealised and realised gains and losses on investments was £147,532 (2024: £3,732,179). ## **Activus Portfolio** During the year there were realised gains of £19,408 before the liquidation of all funds before the year end for £1,029,595. Therefore, the fund value at the year end was £Nil (2024: £1,010,187). - 1 - ## **DALGLEISH TRUST** ## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2025**_ ## **Financial review** Receipts were £72,555 in the year including £71,568 from investment income and £987 was received as a Gift Aid reclaim of cash from HMRC. In addition, there were gains on investment portfolios both realised and unrealised of £109,971. Charitable grants made were £313,475. Expenditure amounted to £45,976 including investment management fees and auditors remuneration. Overall a deficit for the year of £176,925 was generated (2024: surplus of £1,503,165). Financial assets at year end were £4,740,004 (2024: £4,916,929). ## _Reserves policy_ The Trustees keep under review appropriate income reserves to meet the needs of the Charity. At present it is considered appropriate that the Charity should maintain minimum cash reserves and readily realisable quoted shares and securities of at least £100,000 to comprehensively cover the anticipated levels of grant giving and expenditure. ## _Principal funding sources_ The founder trustee of Dalgleish Trust founded and operated a UK company, Golden River Traffic Limited from 1974 to 2004 when the business was sold. The ultimate source of the present funds was derived from the sale of that business and donations made by the trustees each year. ## _Investment policy_ The Charity's long-term policy is to build an investment portfolio with income and returns that will enable it to make grants for many years to come. The Trustees intend to make further donations and to manage the investments so that there are funds available for continuing grants for the foreseeable future. ## _Major risks_ 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. The Trustees have a risk strategy to keep under review and identify any risks the charity may face and to establish where possible systems and procedures to mitigate those risks identified. The trustees have reviewed the major risks to which the trust is exposed and have established systems and procedures to manage them. Two areas in particular have been identified for specific monitoring; misuse of the trust's funds by grantees, and reckless investment of the trust's assets. The former is mitigated by a rigorous selection process, especially with regard to less well established grantees, and the latter by a prudent diversified investment policy. ## **Plans for future periods** The trustees intend to continue with the grant making policy and to increase the total value made each year as the investment portfolio funds grow. ## **Structure, governance and management** The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust and constitutes an unincorporated charity. The trust deed was dated 23rd May 2012. The Trustees who served during the year and up to the date of signature of the financial statements were: Mr M J Dalgleish Mrs H M Dalgleish ## _Recruitment and appointment of trustees_ New Trustees can be appointed by a resolution of a meeting of the existing Trustees. - 2 - ## ## ## ## ## ## ## **DALGLEISH TRUST** ## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES** ## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2025**_ The Trustees 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). The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the Charity for that year. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to: - select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; - observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; - make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; - state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and - prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation. The Trustees are responsible for keeping sufficient accounting records that 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 Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed. 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. - 4 - ## **DALGLEISH TRUST** ## **INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF DALGLEISH TRUST** ## **Opinion** We have audited the financial statements of Dalgleish Trust (the ‘Charity’) for the year ended 5 April 2025 which comprise the statement of financial activities, the balance sheet, the statement of cash flows and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. 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: - give a true and fair view of the state of the charity’s affairs as at 5 April 2025 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, for the year then ended; - have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and - have been prepared in accordance with the Charities Act 2011. ## **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 Charity 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 Charity’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 other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The Trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and 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. We have nothing to report in this regard. ## **Matters on which we are required to report by exception** We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: - the information given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the Trustees' report; or - sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or - the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records; or - we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit. - 5 - ## **DALGLEISH TRUST** ## **INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED) TO THE TRUSTEES OF DALGLEISH TRUST** ## **Responsibilities of Trustees** As explained more fully in the statement of Trustees' responsibilities, the Trustees 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 Charity’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 cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. ## **Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements** We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder. 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. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud, is detailed below. 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: - the engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations; - we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the charity through discussions with Trustees and other management, and from our commercial knowledge and experience of the client’s business sector; - we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the charity, including the Charities Act 2011; - we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management and inspecting legal correspondence; and - identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit. - 6 - ## **DALGLEISH TRUST** ## **INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED) TO THE TRUSTEES OF DALGLEISH TRUST** We assessed the susceptibility of the charity’s financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by: - making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud; and - considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations. To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we: - performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships; - tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions; - assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining accounting estimates were indicative of potential bias; and - investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions. In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to: - agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation; - reading the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance; - enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims; and - reviewing correspondence with HMRC and the company’s legal advisors. 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 non-compliance. 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. A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: https:// www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report. ## **Other matters** Your attention is drawn to the fact that the charity has prepared financial statements 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)" (as amended) in preference to the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice issued on 1 April 2005 which is referred to in the extant regulations but has now been withdrawn. This has been done in order for the financial statements to provide a true and fair view in accordance with current Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. - 7 - ## **DALGLEISH TRUST** ## **INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT (CONTINUED) TO THE TRUSTEES OF DALGLEISH TRUST** ## **Use of our report** 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. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity’s trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed. ## **Robert Kirtland (Senior Statutory Auditor)** For and on behalf of Gravita Audit Oxford LLP, Statutory Auditor Chartered Accountants First Floor, Park Central 40-41 Park End Street Oxford OX1 1JD Date: .........................28/7/2025 Gravita Audit Oxford LLP is eligible for appointment as auditor of the Charity by virtue of its eligibility for appointment as auditor of a company under section 1212 of the Companies Act 2006. - 8 - ## **DALGLEISH TRUST** ## **STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL ACTIVITIES INCLUDING INCOME AND EXPENDITURE ACCOUNT** ## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2025**_ |||**Unrestricted**|**Unrestricted**| |---|---|---|---| |||**funds**|**funds**| |||**2025**|**2024**| ||**Notes**|**£**|**£**| |**Income from:**|||| |Donations and legacies|**3**|987|1,270,512| |Investments|**4**|71,568|66,780| |**Total income**||72,555|1,337,292| |**Expenditure on:**|||| |Raising funds|**5**|40,856|12,273| |Charitable activities|**6**|318,395|252,789| |**Total expenditure**||359,251|265,062| |Net gains/(losses) on investments|**12**|109,971|430,935| |**Net income/(expenditure) and movement in funds**||(176,725)|1,503,165| |**Reconciliation of funds:**|||| |Fund balances at 6 April 2024||4,916,929|3,413,764| |**Fund balances at 5 April 2025**||4,740,204|4,916,929| The statement of financial activities includes all gains and losses recognised in the year.

The principal address is Foxcombe Rise, Foxcombe Road, Boars Hill, Oxford, OX1 5DL. ## **1.1 Accounting convention** The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charity's governing document, the Charities Act 2011, FRS 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Charities SORP "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)". The Charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102. The financial statements have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a true and fair view. This departure has involved following the Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying FRS 102 rather than the version of the Statement of Recommended Practice which is referred to in the Regulations but which has since been withdrawn. The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the Charity. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investments which are included at market value, as modified by the revaluation of certain assets. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below. ## **1.2 Going concern** At the time of approving the financial statements, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Thus the Trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements. ## **1.3 Charitable funds** Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees. ## **1.4 Income** All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. ## **1.5 Expenditure** Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure. Where unconditional grants are offered, this is accrued as soon as the recipient is notified of the grant. ## **1.6 Fixed asset investments** Investments are recognised initially at cost or donated value received. Subsequently they are measured at fair value with changes recognised in the statement of financial activities. - 12 - ## **DALGLEISH TRUST** ## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2025**_ ## **1 Accounting policies** ## **(Continued)** ## **1.7 Cash and cash equivalents** Cash at bank includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity. ## **1.8 Creditors** 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. ## **1.9 Taxation** The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities. ## **2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements** In the application of the Charity’s accounting policies, the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods. ## **3 Income from donations and legacies** ||**Unrestricted**|**Unrestricted**| |---|---|---| ||**funds**|**funds**| ||**2025**|**2024**| ||**£**|**£**| |Donations and gifts|-|1,225,512| |Gift aid|987|45,000| ||987|1,270,512| ## **4 Income from investments** ||**Unrestricted**|**Unrestricted**| |---|---|---| ||**funds**|**funds**| ||**2025**|**2024**| ||**£**|**£**| |Income from listed investments|71,568|66,780| - 13 - ## **DALGLEISH TRUST** ## **NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)** ## _**FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2025**_ |**5**|**Expenditure on raising funds**||| |---|---|---|---| |||**Unrestricted**|**Unrestricted**| |||**funds**|**funds**| |||**2025**|**2024**| |||**£**|**£**| ||Investment management|40,856|12,273| |**6**|**Expenditure on charitable activities**||| |||**2025**|**2024**| |||**£**|**£**| ||**Direct costs**||| ||Grant funding of activities (see note 7)|313,475|249,789| ||**Share of support and governance costs (see note 8)**||| ||Governance|4,920|3,000| |||318,395|252,789| ||**Analysis by fund**||| ||Unrestricted funds|318,395|252,789| |**7**|**Grantees 24/25**||| |||**2025**|**2024**| |||**£**|**£**| ||Grants to institutions:||| ||Grants to charities under £11,000|280,975|249,620| ||Dignity Choice in Dying|17,500|-| ||Tools for Self Reliance|15,000|-| |||313,475|249,620| ||Grants to individuals|-|169| |||313,475|249,789| The total number of grants paid to institutions during the year amounted to 59 (2024: 74).
