COR LLIS EAST KEN M4SONS C RTOFT EAREND Tru EE 30 SEPTE BER 2024 FOR TH ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE Review of the year The 'Comwallis East Kent Freemasons, Charity, completed its tenth year of operation on 30th September 2024. The Truslees and Officers are conscious that the charity ¢an only continue to thrive with the generous support which it re￿iVeS from the Brelhren and Companions of the Lodges and Chapters within the Province of East Kent. The effects of the Covid pandemic are now well behind us, The Provincial Grand Masterfs Awards Presentations were re-established this year, which took place again in November 2024 at the Canterbury Cathedral Clagett Auditorium. During 2023124, the Charity made donations to 29 local charities and deserving causes, totalling £59.6k. Of these, 20 were under the match funding provisions. The Charity is delighted with the continued success of this arrangement for joint working with Lodges and Chapters in the Province, but there is scope for even wider use of this scheme. In addition, the Masonic Charitable Foundation made an additsonal donation of £3,200 to one of the charities supported this year. This makes a total of 1,327 charities and deserving causes supported by Comwallis since it commenced aclivity. This number excludes causes supported by the Almonerfs Fund. Examples of the diverse organisations and individuals supported this year include.. Step and Leam Christians Together in Dover Kent Association for the Blind Graham Fulford Charitable Trust 1st Medway Scouts Friends of Milestone Academy Stream Walk Community Gardens J Kiel Evie Dove Foundation KSS Air Ambulance Olivei Fisher Special Care Baby Trust Demelza Hospi￿ Care for Children Maidstone and Tunbridge Well NHS Charitable Trust Kent Foster Carers Association MSS East Kent branch RMBI Duke of Kent Friends The Oliver Steeper Foundation Porchlight Macmillan Cancer Support RNLI Sheemess PCC of Hoo Medway Street Angels Nettlestead Village Hall Gravesend Women and Girls RFC Mrs E Ward Widowed and Young TLC East Kent The list indicates the wide range of deseNing causes supported which includes children, people with disabilities and community facilities and needs. In addition, the Charity sponsored a PSA 'tesling day, once more for Proslate Cancer in May 2024 at the Franklin Road Masonic Centre, where some190 plus tests were carried out on the day. The Charity aims to continue to support charities and other causes during the next accounting year ending September 2025 in order to support the objectives included in the Constitution of the Charity. All applications for support are thoroughly checked to ensure they meet the Charity's criteria, and that the applicanl's financial position supports the need for a grant. This may entail further information being sought or a meeting arranged with the applicant which may involve the Lodge and Chapter Charity stewards or Almoners. The final decision on giving any support rests with the Charity's Trustees. Page 2

RNWALLIS EA TKE MASONS CHAR REP FOR THEY OF THE TRUSTEES NDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2024 If the Trustees agree to make a grant, arrangements are usually made for the award to be presented by local Freemasons in the area where the charily is based. A report of the presentation will then usually appear on the Comwallis East Kent Freemasons, Charity website and in conjunction with the Provincial Communications team a press release will be submitted to the I￿al paper. By doing so it is hoped that the charity will gain additional benefits from the publicity which it then receives. There are some 3,000 charities in Kent registered with the Charity Commission (VCS Report 12120231, and many more that are not registered but which carry out vital work on behalf of needy people. Many of the charities which Ihe Comwallis East Kent Freemasons, Charity supports are small and are financially Challenged. A story in the Ic£al press gives the charity exposure which may enable it to gain support from other sources. It also demonstrates in an incredibly positive way the support which Freemasons give to their local Community. The charity continues to provide 'matched funding, of up to £500 per Lodge or Chapter to support any application which is in line with the objects, which an individual Lodge or Chapter, or a group of these want to support. The Trustees are happy to give presentations to individual Lodges and Chaplers. Contact can be made via the Comwallis East Kent Freemasons, Charity office, but we would ask that adequate time is given in such requests for arrangements to be made. FINANCL4L REVIEW Reserves pollcy The Charity shares Offi￿ space and resources with the Provincial Grand Lodge of East Kent and pla￿S reliance upon volunteers. As such Ihe charity has extremely low support and operating costs. The charity Iherefore has no requirement to hold significant levels of free reserves. As will be seen in the section on Risk Management, the Trustees are aware of Ihe pressure which will be placed on their fund raising and are keeping actual performance under continual review. Investmenl Policy The Charity has adopted an investment strategy based on managed capital rFsk with a diverse portfolio of investments. This is intended to produ￿ a balanced combination of income and capital growth and is effected through the use of a unit trust provider. It is also designed to ensure a degree of liquidity to enable rapid drawdown of cash when required and, where possible, to ulilise 'ethical' investments consistent with Masonic principles. Flnancial P6rformance of the year The grants provided by the Charity are highlighted above. In respect of its income, it re￿iVed income of £66.5k from Lodges, Chapters, individual Brethren and various fund-raising aclivilies including interest on investments. During the year, based on an independent report recommendation a¢lion outstanding, the 'Almonels fund, was completely removed from the CEKFC accounts and Iransferred to a dedicated Provincial fund. The funds held are, in the main, for distribution in accordance with the charity's objects and are subject to investment management. On 30 September 2024 total funds held by the Charity was £674,400 (2023.. £686,489). Most funds held are for distribution in accordance with the charily's objects, although a portion are restricted to a particular aspect, i.e. the Disaster Fund. The Brooshooft Family Endowment is a Permanent Endowment Fund and as such only the income from that Fund is available for distribution. Page 3

WALLIS EA ONS CHARITY TO THE FINANCIA FOR THE YEAR END STATEMENTS- D 30 SEPTE on in ACCOUNTING POLICIES- continued Fund accounting Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements (page15 and16). Financial Instruments The charity enters into basic financial instruments that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like Irade and other accounts re￿1vable and payable, loans from banks and other third parties and loans to related parties, a) Trade and other debtors Trade and other debtors are initially recognised at fair value and thereafter stated at amortised cost using the effective interest melhod, less impaimient losses for bad and doubtful debts except where Ihe effect of discounting would be immaterial, In such cases, the receivables are stated at cost less impainnent losses for bad and doubtful debts. bl Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and in hand. c) Trade and other creditors Debt instruments like loans and other accounts payable are initially measured at present value of the future payments and subsequently at amortised cost using the effective interest melhod, Debt instruments that are payable within one year, typically trade payables, are measured, initially and subsequently, at the undiscounted amount of the cash or other consideration expected to be paid. However, if the arrangemenls of a short-term inslrument constitute a financing transaction, like the payment of a trade debt deferred beyond normal business tems or financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rale or in case of an outright short-term loan not at market rate, the financial asset is measured, initially and subsequently, at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instwment. Financial assets and liabilities are offset and the net amount reported in the stalement of financial position when there is an enfor￿able right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liabilily simultaneously. Current investments Current Investments are included in the Balance Sheet at market value. Unrealised gains or losses during the year are included in the Statement of Financial Activities.
