The report presented lo the Trustees in both August 2020 and 2021 concluded that the internal financial controls were fil for purpose and proportionate lo the scale and complexity of the Foundation's business. Mission Statement, Vislon and Values In 2018, we launched a new Ihree-year strategy for the Berkeley Foundation. As part of this, the mission, vision and values of the Foundation were reviewed and refreshed. Our mission is lo work in partnership to help young people overcome barriers, improve their lives. and build a fairer society. Our vision is for a society in which every young person can thrive. All partnerships deliver against at least one of the Foundation's four themes. A Safe Place lo Call Home,, 'Access to Employment,, 'The Skills lo Succeed. and 'Heallh & Wellbeing,. The principal values that the Foundation will ¢onduct ils work through are.. HAVE INTEGRITY- Build trust by being open, clear and ¢redible BE EFFECTIVE - Manage our resources responsibly to generate long-lerm impa BE BOLD- Take a creative and innovative approach to all our activities EMPOWER PEOPLE- Work collaboratively, engage others in our work and empower people lo create change PROGRESS THROUGH LEARNING- Take every opportunity to develop our kno￿edge and understanding

The strategy sets out three priority areas for the Foundation's work. each containing a number of specific and measurable Ihree-year commilmenls. Our priority areas are.. FUNDING- We believe in the power of long-term funding. Wherever possible we work with organisalions for three years or more. This helps build Irusl, and provides our partners with stability and consistency. ADDING VALUE- As well as funding frontline services, we also use our skills, expertise, resources and networks to create development opportunities for our partners and their beneficiaries. Our partnership with the Berkeley Group provides us with aC￿sS to a wide range of assets and opportunities. LEARNING AND SHARING- We use what we've learned to inform and improve our own strategy and funding decisions, share insights and influence wider policy and practice. We do this by publishing evaluations and reports, convening events and communicating about what didn't work as well as what did. We aim to be transparent about our grant-making in order lo drive improvements for ourselves. other funders and the wider sector. 2020121 was the final year of delivery against thi$ strategy. Activities, achievements and Impact A¢tivities The Foundation supports people in London, Birmingham and the South of England through four themes: 'A Safe Place to Call Home,, 'AC￿SS lo Employment,, 'The Skills to Succeed, and 'Heallh & Wellbeing,. We do this through three types of charitable partnership.. Strategic Partnerships.. Long term, in-depth partnerships, operating on a number of levels. There are currently six Strategic Partnerships. Deslgnated Charities.. Three-year partnerships be￿een Beikeley Group businesses and local charities. There are currently 20 Designated Charities. Community Investment Fund.. Targeted funding programmes addressing Specif￿ issues facing young people in each of our four focus areas. Over the last 12 months, oui partnerships have reached 5,487 people across London, the South of England and Birmingham. We have donated £2.8 million lo the voluntary sector through Foun(Jalion grants1£2.5 million) and staff fundraising I£0.3 million), and seen 53'h of Berkeley staff gel involved through fundraising, volunteering and Give As You Earn. This year, our grant making has included making significant further emergency Covid-19 response funding available to our charity partners, bringing our lolal gfant making in response to the pandemic lo £656.000. We remain ¢ommilled to building strong, enduring and Irusl-based relationships, and believe that investing for the long term is the best way lo maximise the impact of our funding. It enables us lo build Iwly impactful partnerships which can harness skills. expertise, brand and reach, as well as funding. str8tegiG Partnerships Our Strategic Partnerships are central to our charitable giving. They provide a core of strong, well- resourced, long-term partnerships, addressing the needs of the most disadvantaged people in society by combining the expertise and high quality delivery of our charity partners with the skills, resources and nebNorks of the Berkeley Foundation. Our six Strategic Partnerships stretch across our four themes. A brief summary of each of these partnerships is provided below..

Crisis.. Our partnership with Crisis continues to support the charity's employment services work across London. It also includes a new place-based partnership with Crisis Skylight Brent, aimed al creating local system5 change. This work has progressed well during the year. Thg Change Foundation.. We have expanded our support for Street Elite, a programme which uses sport engage young people impacted by crime, violence and inequality. We renewed our support for the programme in Birmingham and expanded into a fourth London borough.. Ealing. Tho Lord's Taverners.. Our partnership with the Lord's Taverners continues lo support the SL6per 1 s disability Cricket programme. While face-to-face delivery was paused for much of the year due to the pandemic, young people continued lo engage online and good progress was made towards rolling the programme out nationally. The Mayoi's Fund for London: We renewed and increased our support for the Kitchen Social programme during the year, providing food and activities for young people vulnerable to food poverty, during the school holidays and in national lockdowns. yBnk: Our continued support for MyBnk's The Money House programme, which supports care experienced young people moving into independent accommodation, enabled it lo expand into a fourth location.. Haringey. The programme was successfully delivered online during the pandemic. Imperial College London: We renewed our partnelship with Imperial College London for a further three years. commilling an additional £600.000 lo support the Makerspace Programmes, aimed al engaging young people in the While City area in design and making. Due to the ongoing pandemic Berkeley staff were unfortunately not able lo engage in these partnerships through fundraising and volunteering as fully as in previous years However, during the year 234 Berkeley colleagues took part in Crisis, Race lo End Homelessness, raising £54,000. Staff and contractors from Berkeley Homes East Thames refurbished The Money House flat in Greenwich, Berkeley St Edward provided free of charge use of its storage facilities lo the Kitchen Social programme, and Berkeley Divisions hosted a number of work experience placements for young people graduating from the Street Elile programme. Designat8d Charities We have 20 local partnerships with organisalions nominated and selectsd by our staff. These range from grassroots homelessness projects to children's hospices. They are long-term relationships lasting al least three years and, in some cases, much longer. This gives the two organisations the chance to really get lo know and understand each other. A partnership plan is developed which focuses not only on support through fundraising but also on staff volunteering and capacity building. Designated Charities are the main focus of staff fundraising across the Berkeley business. This year, fundraising has been significantly reslricled by the Covid-19 pandemic. Nevertheless, stsff raised £255,000 for their local partners during the year 12020.. £646,000), through fundraising events ranging from quiz nights to bike rides. and through Give as You Eam. This money can make a huge difference lo the small- to-medium svzed organisalions we support. Community Investment Fund Our Community Investment Fund is the third stream of funding available from the Berkeley Foundation. It allows us to fvnd flexibly, making smaller grants lo innovative organisalions within our four themes. This year, we launched our second Improving Youth M8ntal Health programme, building on our previous work lo improve young people's health and wellbeing. We are working with three charities.. Khulisa, MAC- UK and the Anna Freud N81ional Centre for Children and Familie5. During the year, we also continued lo work with the charities funded under the first Improving Youth Mental Health. Comballing Youth Homolessn8ss, Empowering Young Women into Work, and Skills for Positive Futur8s programmes.

Covid-19 The year was dominated by th8 ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. Like so many organisations, the Foundation had lo adapt quickly and we adjusted to home working. remote decision-making, and holding board meetings via Zoom. We were an early signatory of 'We Sland With The Sector,, a joint funder pledge lo the voluntary sector and a public statement of our ¢ommitmenl to supporting our charity partners during this difficult period. Our response to the pandemic this year is summarised below.. Providing addltlonal flexiblllty on current grants.. Where requested. we have enabled charity partners to use funding from the Foundation flexibly lo respond to community need. or unrestricted funding altogether. Providlng addltional funding to charity partners: During the year we committed a further £428,000 in emergency Covid-19 response grants to our charity partners. This included unreslricled donations lo support core running costs, support ft)r specific pandemic response projects and over £64,000 of match funding lo our Designated Chartlies for fundraising by our staff. This look our total grant-making in response lo the crisis lo £6￿,000. Achievements Our 2018-2021 strategy sets out three elear strategic priorities for our work, underpinned by a set of measurable objectives. Our progress against each priority area is set out below.. FUNDING By 2021 we will... Progress against obJeGtiVOS Find projects that would enable us to give al least £3.5 million a year by 2021 through grants, staff fundraising and GAYE. Over three years we gave £9 million to communities through grants. staff fundraising and Give As You Earn, including £2.8 million last year. We gave more in direct grants from the Foundation in 2020121 than in any previous year, including £656,000 in Covid-19 response grants. Woik in partnership with other funders. businesses and loeal authorities lo develop a more collaborative approach to funding. which leverages our giving and increases its impact We have worked collaboratively with a wider range of funders, businesses and local authorities over the last three years than ever before, with partners ranging from the GLA to JP Morgan Chase Foundation. We regularly shared infomation with other funders throughout the Covid-19 pandemic. and have also started publishing our grants data on 360 Giving. Launch a core ¢osl commitment, which will ensure that every grant we make lakes a full cost recovery approach We published our core cost commitment on oui website in 2019. This makes public our commitment to funding a proportion of our partners, core costs and overhead as part of every grant we make. Since then, 950/0 of new grants Irepresenling 990A of our lolal giving) have been either unreslricled or included core costs ancs we are working tOW8rds making thi¥ 100%.

ADDING VALUE By 2021 we wlll... Progress against objectlves Develop a broader range of skilled volunteering opportunities for Berkeley staff, increasing the number of volunteer hours given across the Berkeley Group and measuring the impact of this for both chaiilies and Staff, Through our charity partners we have been able to offer a range of volunteering opportunities, from mentoring young people lo serving Christmas meals to those experiencing homelessness, clean up community gardens and even renovate a home for a family. Through the pandemic we worked with partners lo deliver virtual sessions on subjects like interior design and CV workshops. Create more opportunities for our partners to meet, network and collaborate with each other and our wider networks. We created new opportunities for our charity partners to Come together, Share and collaborate, from hosting networking dinners lo workshops and roundtable events. Partners have fed back through our len year evaluation that they would like lo see the Foundation do even more of this in future. Develop stronger pathways for young people taking part in Berkeley Foundation programmes to access work experience and employment opportunities with the Berkeley Group and its supply chain. New partnerships with Crisis in Brent. Key4Life in Hammersmilh & Fulham, 2nd Vvomen into Construction in Birmingham have strengthened our ability lo support people into work. Over three years Berkeley Group hosted 21 work experience placements for people referred by our charity partners, and 12 of these moved into jobs and apprenticeships. LEARNING AND SHARING By 2021 we wlll... Progress against objectlves Undertake a long-term evaluation of the Foundation's impact, lo be published in 2021. As part of this, we will develop opportunities for partner charities and their beneficiaries to give feedback on our work. We commissioned IVAR to carry out a 10 year evaluation of our work, looking al our impact on people, organisats'ons and wider society, and making recommendations for the future. As part of this process, we collected anonymous feedback from our charity partners for the first lime something we will look to continue. We published IVAR'S report in 2021. and you can read their findings on our webs11e. Create a learning programme which pmvides space for our partners to share, reflect and develop their woth. We piloted a series of leaming events in 2019120. delivering three events with partners and young people which helped us lo develop new funding programmes. We built on this in 2020121, bringing partners together for four workshop sessions and sharing learning from our Combatting Youth Homelessness programme al London Funders. Festival of Learning. Raise the Foundation's profile and ability lo influence key stakeholders by developing and implementing a new communications strategy. Our new communications strategy was launched in 2019 and this has helped us lo increase our profile across a number of channels.

Impact Over the last year, we have worked with 58 voluntary sector organisalions. We have given £2.8 million through grants and staff fundraising to our partner charities. and this funding has supported over 5,400 at- risk individuals. This work has been supported by the efforts of 1,418 Berkeley Group staff153Yfjl. We want to make sure that we are using these resources effectively, and supporting work that is making real and lasting difference. We work with our partners lo evaluate the programmes we are funding.. lo understand what is working well, and where there is room for improvement. What we learn from this process can be used and shared, to showcase good practice, and lo make sure things work beller next year and the year after that. As part of this process of learning and reflection, this year we also commissioned a len yearevaluation ofthe Foundation's work. which was delivered by the Inslilule forvolunlary Action Research (IVAR). We think about our impact in three ways.. Individual impact- Young people h8V8 a safe place lo call home. improved health and wellbeing, access lo emploympnt and the skills to succeed. Funding high quality services that improve people's lives is at the core of what we do. Our partners might help somebody secure a tenancy or avoid homelessness, move into work, develop new skills or access new opporbjnilie$. This yearwe have supported more than 5,400 people through our charity partnerships. This includes 898 people experiencing or at risk of homelessness, 911 people who have taken parl in employability initiatives or moved into work, 262 young people who have gained new skills, and 3.416 young people who have taken part in health and wellbeing programmes. We work with our partners lo understand the impact of the programmes we fund. This year, we have analysed impact data for over 2,350 of the people our charity partners worked with against London Benchmarking Group's impact framework, which measures depth of impact, and asks whether we had contributed towards a connection, an improvement, or a Iransformalion in the lives of the people supported by our wotk. 64% of people supported had made a connection- this includes people who received housing advice, gained new skills, or reported a change in attitude towards work or edueation. 540/0 of people had made an improvement - this includes people who experienced longer-lerm change, such as an improvement in their housing situation, or a change in attitude or behaviour that lasted beyond the end of the inteTvenlion. 25¥0 of people experienced a transformation rehoused or who moved inlo work. this includes people who were pemianently IVAR'S ten year evaluation of our work found evidence that the Foundation had contributed towards a wide range of outcomes for young people and communities, and that in some cases we have been the only funder that has been willing lo support certain services. OTganlsatlonal impact - o￿anIsatIOnS supporting young people are stronger, more resilient and beller able lo ovgrcom8 challenges and oper81e effectively. Our work also has an impact on the organisalions we partner with. We work with organisalions for the long term.. most of our partnerships last for three years and some for much longer. This provides stability, and enables our partners to plan ahead. IVAR'S len year evaluation highlighted four elements of our approach that contribute towards ¢harily partner resilience and effectiveness.. Provision of longer-term funding Funding based on an understanding of the Complexity of the issues- enabling organisalion lo lake a holistic approach and respond and adapt lo new and emerging needs Creating opportunities for partners lo collaborate and share learning and insight with peers Access to resources and support beyond funding

Systemlc impact - Insight and learning about 'what works, in improving the lives of margin81isad young people is shared across the voluntary, privat& andpublic sectors. As well as directly supporting people and organisations. we use our networks to Share what we have learned through our partnerships. We believe that by being transparent about what has worked well and what hasn't, we can begin lo influence other funders, businesses and decision-makers. As well as investing in an external evaluation of the Foundation's work, which will be shared externally, this year we participated in a number of funder events and forums aimed al sharing intelligence around community need during the pandemic, ensuring that we. and other funders, were able lo respond in a co-ordinated manner. Investment Funding for the Foundation comes from a variety of sources. The Berkeley Group staff raise money through sponsorship, Give As You Earn and by donating their time and talents. The Berkeley Group matches any monies raised, as well as providing the Foundation's 'core' funding, paying ils overheads and covering the cost of specific events. We also received a number of direct donations from individuals and companies who support our work. A significant percentage of The Berkeley Group staff support the work of the Foundation through direct giving. fundraising and volunteering. 1,418 current Berkeley staff contributed lo the Foundation in 2020121 153%), and 320/0 of all Berkeley staff were signed up lo Give As You Eam at April 2021. resulting in Berkeley receiving the Diamond Payroll Giving Quality Mark Awaid in 2021 for the fourth consecutive year (for over 30°/0 of staff contfibutingl. Financial review Income for the year was £2,592,80012020'. £4,752,390). This includes funding received from The Berkeley Group in respect of commitments and grants to charities approved by the Trustees, donated services from The Berkeley Group. amounts raised directly for the Foundation through fL+ndraising and Give As You Earn contributions, and direct donations from individuals and companies. Some of these commitments span a number of years and the commilled funding is received up front from The Berkeley Group. The decrease in income this year primarily reflects the lower level of funding from The Berkeley Group. with a lower level of new mulli-year commitments compared lo the prior year, reflecting the liming of renewal of our longer temi partnerships. The Berkeley Group has again advance funded commitments forecast for the next financial year. Expenditure in the year totalled £2,477,811 12020.. £3.412,6931. This related lo commitments and grants to Strategic Partnerships, Designated Ch8rilies and grants and donations lo other charities within the Foundation's core focus aieas and support costs paid for by The Berkeley Group, with the reduction reflecting the lower level of new multi-year commitments as discussed above. Grants and donations tolalling £2,476,863 were physically paid by the Foundation during the year12020'. £2,270,840). In addition, a further £326,262 was raised by Berkeley Group staff via fundraising and Give As You Earn and donated directly lo the Foundation's partner charities in the year {2020'. £695,604). This amount is not reflected in these financial slalements. The value of the lime and tslenl donated by Berkeley Group staff is also not included in these financial stalemenls. The charity is in a not asset position al the year-end of £1,819,97012020'. £1,705,000), with the position continuing to reflect the advance funding received from The Berkeley Group for commitsmenls forecast for the coming year, as noted above. All funds were unreslricled. The Trustees have continued lo consider the impact of Covid-19 on the Foundation and have concluded it to be low risk to its continuing operations. given the support of The Berkeley Group, resulting in the Foundation being forward funded al each balance sheet date with all ¢ommilmenls approved by the Trustees. and all costs of the Foundation being borne by The Berkeley Group. 10

In addition, advance funding has again been received before the year end frorn The Berkeley Group for other commitments forecast for the coming year not yel approved. These matters has b&en assessed when considering the Basis of Preparation for the financial stalemenls, as set out on page 20. ReseNes policy The Trustees. policy is lo maintain sufficient reserves to meet existing and forecast commitments lo charities. The reserves held al 30 April 2021, as sel out in note 9 to the financial statements. complied with this policy as, given there are no running Costs incurred by the Foundation, all reserves are available for dislribulion. The running costs of the Foundation are paid by The Berkeley Group. as set out in notes 3 and 4 to the financi81 slatemenls. Future actlons Considerable work was undertaken in the year to support the development of a new 2030 Strategy for the Berkeley Foundation. This strategy has since been finalised and launched, and will guide our work over the remainder of this decade. The slratsgy builds on the recommendations from IVAR'S ten year evaluation of the Foundation's work, particularly feedback gathered from charity partners through four focus groups and an anonymous survey. We have worked closely with our board of trustees. charity partners and key stakeholders across the Berkeley Group to shape the way forward. The result is a long-lerm strategy which sees us evolve our previous goals, making them more relevant lo a changing external environment and biinging more young people into each stage of the granl-making process. Our 2030 vision is that young people and thelr communltle$ will have the tools and resources they need to thrive and be a force for change Sn th¢ world. Our vision is supported by five impact goals, which defi'ne the difference we want to make through our work..

Public Bènefit The Trustees confirm that they have complied with their duty to have regard to the guidance on public benefit published by the Charity Commission in exercising their powers and duties, including when reviewng the Foundation's aims and objectives and in planning future activities and Selling grant making policy for the period.

Independent auditor's report to the members of The Berkeley Charitable Foundation

Opinion

We have audited the financial statements ofThe Berkeley Charitable Foundation ("the charitable company") for the year ended 30 April 2021 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, Balance Sheet, Cash flow statement and related notes, including the accounting policies in note 1.

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 are described below. We have fulfilled our ethical responsibilities under, and are independent of the charitable company in accordance with, UK ethical requirements including the FRC Ethical Standard. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is a sufficient and appropriate basis for our opinion.

Going concern

The Trustees have prepared the financial statements on the going concern basis as they do not intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease its operations, and as they have concluded that the charitable company's financial position means that this is realistic. They have also concluded that there are no material uncertainties that could have cast significant doubt over its ability to continue as a going concern for at least a year from the date of approval of the financial statements ("the going concern period").

In our evaluation of the Trustees' conclusions, we considered the inherent risks to the charitable company's business model and analysed how these risks might affect the charitable company's financial resources or ability to continue operations over the going concern period.

Our conclusions based on this work:

However, as we cannot predict all future events or conditions and as subsequent events may result in outcomes that are inconsistent with judgements that were reasonable at the time they were made, the above conclusions are not a guarantee that the charitable company will continue in operation.

Fraud and breaches of laws and regulations - ability to detect

Identifying and responding to risks of material misstatement due to fraud

To identify risks of material misstatement due to fraud ("fraud risks") we assessed events or conditions that could indicate an incentive or pressure to commit fraud or provide an opportunity to commit fraud. Our risk assessment procedures included

We communicated identified fraud risks throughout the audit team and remained alert to any indications of fraud throughout the audit.

14

As required by auditing standards, we perform procedures to address the risk of management override of controls, in particular the risk that the charitable company's management may be in a position to make inappropriate accounting entries. On this audit we do not believe there is a fraud risk related to revenue recognition because the revenue is made up of a small number of transactions all that can be vouched to cash with very limited opportunity or incentive to fraudulently report revenue.

We did not identify any additional fraud risks.

Identifying and responding to risks of material misstatement due to non-compliance with laws and regulations

We identified areas of laws and regulations that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect on the financial statements from our general commercial and sector experience, and through discussion with management (as required by auditing standards), and discussed the policies and procedures regarding compliance with laws and regulations.

We communicated identified laws and regulations throughout our team and remained alert to any indications of non-compliance throughout the audit.

The potential effect of these laws and regulations on the financial statements varies considerably.

The charitable company is subject to laws and regulations that directly affect the financial statements including financial reporting legislation (including related charities and companies legislation) and we assessed the extent of compliance with these laws and regulations as part of our procedures on the related financial statement items.

Whilst the charitable company is subject to many other laws and regulations, we did not identify any others where the consequences of non-compliance alone could have a material effect on amounts or disclosures in the financial statements.

Context of the ability of the audit to detect fraud or breaches of law or regulation

Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that we may not have detected some material misstatements in the financial statements, even though we have properly planned and performed our audit in accordance with auditing standards. For example, the further removed non­ compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely the inherently limited procedures required by auditing standards would identify it.

In addition, as with any audit, there remained a higher risk of non-detection of fraud, as these may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal controls. Our audit procedures are designed to detect material misstatement. We are not responsible for preventing non­ compliance or fraud and cannot be expected to detect non-compliance with all laws and regulations.

Other information

The Trustees are responsible for the other information, which comprises the Trustees' Report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion or, except as explicitly stated below, any form of assurance conclusion thereon.

Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether, based on our financial statements audit work, the information therein is materially misstated or inconsistent with the financial statements or our audit knowledge. Based solely on that work:

Matters on which we are required to report by exception

Under the Companies Act 2006 we are required to report to you if, in our opinion:

We have nothing to report in these respects.

Trustees' responsibilities

As explained more fully in their statement set out on page 13, 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; such internal control as they determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error; 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 they either intend to liquidate the charitable company or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

Auditor's responsibilities

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 our opinion in an auditor's report. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but does not 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 aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the financial statements.

A fuller description of our responsibilities is provided on the FRC's website at www.frc.org. uk/auditorsresponsibilities.

The purpose of our audit work and to whom we owe our responsibilities

This report is made solely to the charitable company's members, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 16 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charitable company's members 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 charitable company and its members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.
