GILBERT HANNAM EDUCATION FOUNDATION
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 August 2022
The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 August 2022. 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 AND ACTIVITIES
Public benefit
The charity confirms that the trustees have complied with their duty to have due regard to guidance on public benefit published by the Charity Commission in exercising its powers or duties and in deciding what activities the charity should undertake. The trustees believe that the charity's accounts demonstrate that it acts for the public benefit.
The object of the charity is the provision of items, services and facilities for the school i.e. Midhurst Rother College or such other secondary school for pupils from Midhurst and the surrounding area as may replace it. If and in so far as the income of the charity cannot be applied towards the object above, it may be applied in promoting the education of persons who are in need of financial assistance in the following order of priority:
a) Persons who are attending the School and
b) Persons who have at any time attended the School.
The trustees have paid due regard to guidance issued by the Charity Commission in deciding what activities the charity should undertake. At the forefront of their considerations have been the impact of the pandemic on students.
ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
In large part the activities of the Foundation have returned to pre-pandemic levels. Trustees have resumed meeting in person, although the Foundation continues to take advantage of video teleconference facilities to allow trustees to join meetings virtually if required. The key activity supported this year was the 350th anniversary of the establishment of the original school by Gilbert Hannam. After a two-year break, the Foundation held its normal celebrations. Marking the 350th Anniversary, the preacher at the church service was Rt Rev Helen Bushyager, The Bishop of Horsham. Mrs Shelagh Legrave, the Government's Further Education Commissioner, was the guest speaker at the Foundation evening where prizes were awarded. The evening was well attended by students, parents, staff, governors, trustees and friends of the College. In addition to mark the 350th Anniversary, a tea party was held in July for current and past trustees of the Foundation, current and past governors both of MRC and Midhurst Grammar School, local politicians, the past and current Principals of the College, current and past teaching staff of both schools, past speakers from our Foundation evenings and past winners of the prizes supported by the Foundation. Around 100 people attended a wonderful event.
In supporting requests for assistance, trustees continue to delegate a sum of £2,000 for use by the Principal and one trustee: Gill Welsman; without reference to all trustees. This has been agreed in support of efficiency and confidentiality.
In other activities in support of the College, trustees supported the largest ever single grant to the College in support of the College's response to challenges and disruption caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. The enforced school closures during the reporting period meant some students had missed face to face teaching for a significant period and further days were lost through enforced self-isolation. The overall impact was very disruptive to student's education and there was a rise in mental health issues. In response, trustees have approved a £115,000 grant to support MRC's response across three areas:
i. The appointment of an additional Maths and English teacher for a year to enable extra tuition for all students in these subjects.
ii. Additional counselling support to allow additional support for students' mental health resulting from the pandemic. This paid for two additional days counselling per week and continued to support the alternative provision post. iii. One to one tuition in Maths, English and Science for disadvantaged students.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 August 2022
FINANCIAL REVIEW
Investment policy and objectives
Smith & Williamson (Evelyn) Investment Management and Rathbones continue to look after the funds in line with the investment criteria contained within the Foundation's investment strategy. The strategy was reviewed during this reporting period.
Reserves policy
The charity has minimal financial commitments with no obligations or employees. Therefore the reserves policy is to have under investment sufficient funds to generate income in line with the charity's investment strategy and that the capital value will be preserved in perpetuity in line with inflation to continue to meet the objectives of the charity. Ignoring movements in valuation the trustees consider a portfolio value of between £2,500,000 and £3,000,000 sufficient to fund future activities.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
The charity was established by a charitable trust deed on 5 January 2011 (1159447) and was formerly known as Midhurst Grammar School Educational Foundation (3062231). The Foundation has a 5% interest in the land on which the College is located. The trustees are appointed to use their skills and experience in support of the aims of the Foundation and thus no specific induction training is required. One trustee has attended a corporate governance and risk management seminar offered by one of the Foundation's investment partners in the last reporting period. During the reporting period, trustees have completed a review of the Foundation's investment strategy and implemented meetings of an investment sub-committee formed of Adrian Moore, Phil Stringer and David Lawes. This has allowed greater scrutiny of investment partner's performance and more active management of the Foundation's financial business. All business completed by the investment sub-committee is reviewed at meetings of all trustees
The trustees have considered the major risks to which the charity is exposed, supported by advice from the trust's financial advisers, including an annual report to the Trustees by Rathbones and Smith Williamson, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to those major risks.
The trustees who served during the period (1 Sep 20 - 31 Aug 21) were: Phil Stringer (chair), Adrian Moore, Gill Welsman, Gina Dutt, David Lawes and Stuart Edwards.A new trustee, Chris Hunt, was welcomed to the Board from June 2022.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF GILBERT HANNAM EDUCATION FOUNDATION
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Gilbert Hannam Education Foundation
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Gilbert Hannam Education Foundation (the Trust) for the year ended 31 August 2022.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by Section 130 of the Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
