The Trustees present their report with the financial statements of Chichester Cathedral Restoration and Development Trust CIO ("the Trust") for the year ended 31 March 2021. The Trustees have adopted the provisions of 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).
Objectives
The objects of the Trust are as follows:
-
a) The restoration, improvement, development, maintenance and repair of Chichester Cathedral
-
b) The promotion and improvement of the musical and educational facilities of the Cathedral
-
c) The restoration, improvement, development, maintenance and repair of other properties belonging to the Cathedral
-
d) Such charitable objects as are normally undertaken by the Dean and Chapter
The core income of the Trust comes from grant making trusts and foundations, individual donations and regular giving linked to Gift Aid. This income provides the basic resources vital for the day-to-day operation of the Trust and the forward planning of expenditure for restoration and development of the Cathedral. The Trust also relies heavily on legacies and fundraising events.
Achievements
The Covid 19 Pandemic was a turning point for the Trust and the 2020-2021 financial year was spent largely on raising funds for the Cathedral to help with the very significant drop in income from the lack of visitors and income from bookings across the Cathedral precincts, including accommodation.
During the last financial year, the Trust provided fundraising support and funding for the following:
Paid direct to Chapter:
-
£25,000 from the All Churches Trust paid annually.
-
Historic England awarded a grant of £149,548 towards the Buttress 60 cloakroom preparation work.
-
Church of England – Cathedral Sustainability Fund, £247,469 award for salaries.
-
National Lottery Heritage Fund – Cultural Recovery Fund awarded £297,000 to help heritage organisations that are at risk due to no longer trading during pandemic
-
Cathedral Choirs Emergency Fund awarded £35,000 towards the retention of lay vicars
-
National Lottery Heritage Fund – Round 2 Cultural Recovery Fund awarded £148,500 to support heritage organisations reopen post pandemic
-
Cathedral Music Fund- Revenue Fund awarded £16,800 for music
Paid to the Trust:
-
All Churches Trust – Hope Beyond awarded £5,100 for a pilot project that addresses loneliness and digital isolation
-
The Tanner Trust award £4,500 towards a project to address digital isolation
-
Chichester Cathedral Millennium Endowment Trust grant of £255,000, £130,000 towards the Treasury project and £125,000 towards the Buttress 60 cloakroom refurbishment project
-
A grant towards the maintenance of the Organ
The Fundraising Team has worked closely with the Cathedral’s Head of Communications and Marketing to provide updates to supporters especially during the lockdown.
During the year the Trust benefited from funds received from its predecessor, the Chichester Cathedral Restoration and Development Trust (charity number 280328). That charity continues to benefit from legacies and although inactive remains on the Charity Commission register.
Fundraising
The Trust relies on voluntary income to fund its work. This income is generated through fundraising appeals to the public, funding applications and organising fundraising events. It is a member of the Institute of Fundraising and follows the Code of Fundraising Practice. Specific fundraising activities during the year included the following:
2
-
The continuation of the major fundraising appeal to raise the remaining funds required for the roof recovering and restoration project.
-
Research and development of a plan to engage major donors with fundraising for the cathedral.
-
Creation of a Special Advisers group to support fundraising activities
-
Development of the American Patrons initiative for Day Tours and a Sussex Tour
-
Development and revision of plans for a Festival of Flowers in 2022
Future project funding
The Restoration and Development Plan of the Cathedral seeks to identify key projects requiring attention. Capital works are costed by the Surveyor of the Fabric and the Quantity Surveyor, who also provide Chapter with advice on the priority of each project. At 31 March 2021 the Trust had agreed in principle to provide grants to the Cathedral towards the following major projects:
-
The largest phase of the roof project to re-cover and restore the medieval Nave roof. This project is expected to start in July 2022 at an estimated cost in excess of £2 million.
-
£30,000 towards the restoration of the Cathedral Font
-
£80,000 towards the restoration of 4 Vicars Close, and No.1 Faiths for additional accommodation for the Cathedral to raise income
-
£30,000 towards Learning & Engagement
-
The support of choral music with grant applications
-
The Trust also continues to assist Chapter with grant applications
Future fundraising activities
In the year ahead the Trust will continue to raise funds by:
-
Continuing to research and apply to grant making trusts
-
Continuing to develop events and activities to engage individuals and major donors
-
Continuing the legacy giving communication plan to raise the profile of legacy giving
-
Encouraging regular giving by individuals
-
Preparing for the 2022 Festival of Flowers. This event was postponed from May 2020 to June 2021 due to the coronavirus pandemic
-
Undertaking other fundraising events
-
The renewal of a programme of fundraising for the roof project final phase (Nave)
-
Preparation work to secure funding to support Chapter’s ‘Vision 2025’
In the medium term, the last phase of the four-year programme of work to re-cover and restore the Cathedral's high roofs remains the largest fundraising effort ever undertaken by the Trust. It comes at a time when the fundraising needs of the Cathedral are also likely to increase, and the Trust will work collaboratively with Cathedral colleagues to best support these additional needs.
In the longer term, the Bell Tower (the last remaining free-standing medieval Cathedral Bell Tower in England) remains a concern and so considerable fundraising efforts will remain for some years to come.
Volunteers
The Trust would achieve very little without the large number of volunteers who help in all fundraising and other activities. This includes the members of the Festival of Flowers Management Team, American Patrons Committee and Roof Appeal Committee. The Trustees are immensely grateful to all who willingly and generously dedicate a great deal of their time and expertise in the interests of the Trust and the Cathedral.
Financial review
Income
Total Income of the Trust and its subsidiary company amounted to £1,145,933 during the year, compared with £731,659 in the prior year. Income from donations, grants and legacies was £1,130,057 compared with £675,371 in the prior year. The donations are reduced due to the delay of the final phase of the High Roofs project.
3
Expenditure
During the course of the year, the Trust made grants of £411,589 (£712,904 in 2019/20) to the Cathedral towards the ongoing restoration and development programme.
Reserves
The balances held by the Trust and its subsidiary company at the end of the financial year were:

| High Roofs Designated Fund | - | - | £196,672 | |
| Total Funds | £1,426,487 | £858,365 | £1,168,919 |
The Organ Fund arose from donations for the long-term care and maintenance of the Cathedral organ and includes accumulated income. The Trust pays for continuous monitoring of the Organ. The Trust is permitted to charge reasonable administration costs to the fund.
The Tudor Painting Fund is for the benefit of the restoration and maintenance of the Tudor paintings in the South and North Transepts of the Cathedral. The conservators are continuing to review the environmental effects on the condition of the paintings and the Fund will be used to undertake work in this area.
The Bell Tower Fund is for the cost of emergency repairs to the Bell Tower. It was created by a grant from the Monument Trust.
The High Roofs Fund relates to donations towards the re-roofing of the Cathedral.
The High Roofs (Nave) Fund relates to donations specifically towards the re-roofing of the Cathedral Nave.
The Festival of Flowers Fund comprises donations towards the cost of staging the Festival of Flowers. These funds are typically expended every other year as it is normally a biennial event. The 2020 event has been postponed until 2022 due to the coronavirus epidemic.
The Learning and Education Fund and Choral Fund relate to donations specifically towards these aspects of
the Cathedral’s activities.
The Digital Isolation Project Fund consists of donations received towards a specific project to assist those suffering from digital isolation.
The Fabric Fund holds the unrestricted funds that are required to meet the future project funding as set out above. The total held in this fund will not be sufficient to meet the total of these and other future major projects without further fundraising.
The High Roofs Designated Fund consisted of legacies and donations which the Trustees designated to be spent on the High Roofs project. These funds were spent during the prior year.
Investment policy
Short term reserves are held either as cash or short-term investments to ensure that commitments can be met when required. Longer-term reserves such as the Organ Fund are invested in M&G Charifund investment funds. All investments are reviewed quarterly by the Finance Committee and reported in detail to Trustee meetings.
The Trustees consider that a minimum of £200,000 of unrestricted funds should be retained in cash reserves and short-term investments at any one time, to enable them to respond to emergency requirements of the
4
Cathedral and to support the running costs of the Trust. During the past year it has not been necessary for the Trustees to release any part of this reserve.
Public benefit
The Charities Act 2011 includes the advancement of the Arts, Culture, Heritage or Science as a description of a charitable purpose. As noted in this report the objects of the Trust include the restoration, improvement, development, maintenance and repair of the Cathedral and the promotion and improvement of the musical and educational facilities of the Cathedral. The Trustees have paid due regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit. By raising funds for the work that falls within its objects the Trust is providing a significant public benefit to a wide section of the community. The building, which is open to all without charge, is a centre for the religious, artistic and cultural life of the community not only in Chichester but throughout Sussex and beyond. In addition, the Cathedral is a nationally important heritage asset.
The Trust and the Cathedral’s mission
The Trustees consider that it is important that the public is aware of the assistance which the Trust gives to the Cathedral in its outreach programme to the population of East and West Sussex. They believe that the work of the Trust has raised the profile of the Cathedral and attracted many thousands of people, from different faiths and backgrounds, to visit the Cathedral. In this way the lives of many will be touched by Christ and His community in Sussex.
Employees
As at 31 March 2021 the Trust had four employees (one full time and three part time): Head of Fundraising, Fundraising Manager, Finance & Governance Manager and Flower Festival Co-ordinator. Staffing levels and remuneration are set by the Trustees based on agreed objectives and targets whilst also taking into account movements in the Consumer Prices Index.
Trustee recruitment
New Trustees are:
-
Briefed on their prospective role prior to appointment.
-
Provided with an Introductory Brief which includes copies of the Governing Documents and relevant background material.
-
Invited to make an informal visit to the Trust office to discuss their role and that of the Trust.
-
Required to complete ‘Declaration of Interests’ and 'Fit and Proper Person' forms.
Relevant courses and seminars are advertised to all Trustees who are encouraged to attend. The majority of the Trustees hold similar positions with other charities and are able, therefore, to bring to the Trust knowledge, training and experience, both on appointment and throughout their period of service as a Trustee.
All Trustees are provided with a copy of a summary of their duties as laid out in the Charities Act 2011.
Decision making
The Trustees direct the overall strategy and investment policy of the Trust. A sub-committee of the Trustees considers financial and employee related matters and makes recommendations to the Trustees. All decisions affecting the Trust are made at quarterly Trustee Meetings. The Governors, all of whom have served as Trustees, attend Trustees’ Meetings by invitation and provide valuable support to the Trust. Day to day management decisions are delegated to the Head of Fundraising with involvement by the Chairman of the Trust whenever relevant.
Risks
The Trustees review periodically the major risks to which the Trust is exposed. Reports are given to the Trustees at quarterly meetings by the Finance Committee and Management Team, where they consider new and ongoing risks, agreeing mitigating actions as necessary. A separate risk assessment is carried out before each major fundraising event. Principal risks are judged to be:
-
Limited availability or access to the required skills and capabilities to manage and deliver its responsibilities.
-
Reputational damage by internal or external factors.
-
Financial mismanagement or fraud.
-
Management of data not compliant with GDPR.
-
Continuation of operations as a result of a major incident (disaster recovery).
5
The Trustees are satisfied that appropriate systems are in place to reduce the likelihood or to mitigate the impact of these risks.
The Trustees believe that corruption, bribery and unfair actions hamper development and impede progress. They insist on integrity in all aspects of the Trust’s activities and expect the same from all those who work with the Trust.
Predecessor Trust
In a settlement dated 1 May 1980, the Dean and Chapter of The Cathedral Church of The Holy Trinity in Chichester settled £100 on a charitable trust to be called the Chichester Cathedral Restoration & Development Trust. The Trust permits a maximum of fourteen Trustees, including the Dean and a Trustee nominated by the Chapter. The Trustees are appointed for periods of 3 years, up to a maximum of 12 years. The Trustees have wide powers of investment and powers to employ and pay officers.
Charitable Incorporated Organisation
On 16 April 2014 the Trust registered as a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (England and Wales) to be called the Chichester Cathedral Restoration and Development Trust CIO. Its objectives are the same as the objects of the original Trust, and its constitution contains the same provision for numbers of Trustees and terms of office. The Trustees have wide powers of investment and powers to employ and pay officers.
The original Trust remains in existence as a dormant charity in order to benefit from any future legacies.
Chichester Cathedral Trust Events Limited
In 2001 the Trustees established a trading subsidiary called Chichester Cathedral Restoration Trust Events Limited. It undertakes activities that could be regarded as trading, including the management of the biennial Festival of Flowers, and pays all of its profits to the Trust as a gift aid donation.
Copies of the Trust Deed, subsequent Deeds of Variation, the Consolidated Declaration of Trust and the CIO constitution are available on request.

CHICHESTER CATHEDRAL RESTORATION & DEVELOPMENT TRUST CIO
STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES' RESPONSIBILITIES
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the accounts 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 accounts 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 accounts, 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 accounts; and
-
prepare the accounts 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 accounts comply with the Charities Act 2011 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.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
TO THE TRUSTEES OF CHICHESTER CATHEDRAL RESTORATION & DEVELOPMENT TRUST CIO
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Chichester Cathedral Restoration & Development Trust CIO (the 'parent charity') and its subsidiaries (the ’group’) for the year ended 31 March 2021 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Cash Flow Statement and notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'.
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the group’s and parent charity's affairs as at 31 March 2021 and of the group’s and parent charity’s incoming resources and application of resources, for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland'; and - have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of 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 Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the group and the parent 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 group’s or parent 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 trustees are responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the information included in the Annual Report, other than the financial statements and our Report of the Independent Auditors thereon.
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.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, 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 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 where the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
the information given in the Report of the Trustees is inconsistent in any material respect with the financial statements; or
-
sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.

REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
TO THE TRUSTEES OF CHICHESTER CATHEDRAL RESTORATION & DEVELOPMENT TRUST CIO
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the Statement of Trustees' Responsibilities, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements which 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 group’s and parent 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 liquidate the group or parent charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
We have been appointed as auditors under Section 145 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 a Report of the Independent Auditors 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:
We obtained an understanding of the legal and regulatory frameworks that are applicable to the group and the parent charity and determined that the most significant are those that relate to the reporting framework (FRS 102, the Charities SORP (FRS 102) '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)', the Companies Act, and the Charities Acts), and the relevant tax compliance regulations. We also considered the provisions of other laws and regulations that do not have a direct effect on the financial statements but compliance with which may be fundamental to the group’s or charity's ability to operate or to avoid a material penalty, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and employment and health and safety regulations.
We understood how the group and parent charity are complying with those frameworks by making enquiries of management and those charged with governance (the charity's trustees). We corroborated our enquiries through our review of the minutes of the trustees' meetings and the trustees' own risk assessment, as well as consideration of the results of our audit procedures.
We assessed the susceptibility of the group’s and parent charity's financial statement to material misstatement, including how fraud might occur, by enquiries of management and those charged with governance, by reviewing the charity's own risk assessment, and by considering our own knowledge of the group’s and charity's activities and its accounting system and controls. We also considered the existence of possible incentives to fraud.
Based on our understanding, we designed our audit procedures to identify significant instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations, and potential indicators of fraud. Our procedures involved enquiries of management and those charged with governance as to their knowledge of any instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations and any known instances of fraud (whether internal or external), review of the minutes of trustees' meetings, focussed audit testing, manual journal testing and an overall review of the general ledger transactions for the year. We also considered whether any judgements made in making accounting estimates are indicative of potential bias, including in respect of revenue recognition. Our procedures were designed to provide reasonable assurance that the financial statements were free from fraud or error.
A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council's website at www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our Report of the Independent Auditors.

Use of our report

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
1 Accounting policies
1.1 Basis of preparation
The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) "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 2015)", Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention modified to include certain items at fair value. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity.
1.2 Basis of consolidation
These accounts consolidate the results of Chichester Cathedral Restoration and Development Trust CIO (the Trust), its wholly owned subsidiary Chichester Cathedral Restoration Trust Events Limited and its predecessor charity, Chichester Cathedral Restoration and Development Trust, on a line by line basis.
1.3 Income
All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the Trust has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.
-
Legacy income is only recognised where receipt is reasonably certain and the amount is known with sufficient reliability, or the legacy has been received.
-
Donations are brought into account when receivable.
-
Amounts received in advance of an event are not recognised unless there is no obligation to refund the amounts if the event is cancelled. All such income is deferred until the event has taken place.
No amount is included in the financial statements for volunteer time in line with the SORP (FRS 102). Further detail is given in the Trustees' Annual Report.
1.4 Expenditure
Expenditure is recognised as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the Trust to the 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. As the Trust is not registered for VAT, the VAT suffered is reported as part of the expenditure to which it relates. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and is classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to that category as follows:
-
Grants are brought into account when payable.
-
Event expenditure in advance is recognised when the liability arises unless it is refundable if the event is cancelled.
-
Office and salary expenditure, including employer pension contributions, is apportioned between the cost of generating funds and charitable activities in relation to the amount of staff time that is required for each activity.
1.5 Tangible fixed assets and depreciation
Equipment costing more than £1,000 is capitalised and included at cost including any incidental expenses of acquisition. Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost less estimated residual value of each asset over its expected useful life, as follows:
Equipment
25% per annum straight line
1.6 Stock
Stocks of goods for resale are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value calculated on a first in first out basis.

NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS (CONTINUED)
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021
1 Accounting Policies (continued)
1.7 Investments
Investments are recognised initially at fair value which is normally the transaction price excluding transaction costs. Subsequently, they are measured at fair value with changes recognised in ‘net gains / (losses) on investments’ in the SoFA if the shares are publicly traded or their fair value can otherwise be measured reliably. Other investments are measured at cost less impairment.
Investments in subsidiaries are measured at cost less impairment.
1.8 Debtors and creditors receivable/payable within one year
Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised as expenditure.
1.9 Pensions
The Trust operates a defined contributions pension scheme. Contributions are charged in the accounts as they become payable in accordance with the rules of the scheme.
1.10 Accumulated funds
Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used. The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the accounts.
1.11 Taxation
The Trust is not liable to taxation on its income applied for charitable purposes.
