Objectives and activities
The trust's objects are namely charitable purposes for the public benefit as are exclusively charitable according to the Laws of England and Wales as the Trustees may from time to time determine. The policies adopted in furtherance of these objects are to make grants and there has been no change in these during the year.
Grants are considered by all trustees on a regular basis throughout the year while having regard to the trust's aims and objectives, and investments. When grants are approved, the trustees instruct the solicitors to organise the making of such grants. A detailed register of grants made is kept and updated by the solicitors and circulated amongst the trustees.
The trustees continue to seek for grant making opportunities to fulfil the charity's objectives.
Achievements and performance
During the year the trust made donations to other charitable bodies of £94,050 (2021: £122,200). Applications are made in writing or via email and are considered on a case-by-case basis. The trust will consider applications by charitable organisations that it has not previously supported. In principle all applications by registered charities in England and Wales will be considered on their merits in accordance with the Charity's areas of interest as outlined in the objectives.
The trust plans to continue making grants in line with its objectives.
Financial review
During the year the trust received a total income of £56,813 (2021: £41,311) and total expenditure was £113,870 (2021: £137,730). This gave rise to a net surplus of £34,359 (2021: £397,037) after gain on investments of £91,416 (2021: 493,456). This resulted in total funds carried forward as at 5 April 2022 of £2,991,013 (2021: £2,956,654).
The trust does not fundraise and its income is comprised wholly of income arising on the trust's investment portfolio which was funded by gifts of expendable endowment from the charity's founders, Peter and Teresa Harris. The trust received a lump sum gift of expendable endowment from Peter and Teresa Harris during the year to 5 April 2016 in the sum of £2,954,586. This has been invested by the trust's Investment Managers.

The Investment Managers' report for the year to 5 April 2022 showed a satisfactory performance.
The trustees aim to continue with the grant making. Given that the current reserves, they are sufficient to meet any unexpected grant application. The trust seeks to use income earned from investments to make grants but has an expendable endowment fund if required.
The trustees have assessed the major risks to which the trust is exposed, and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate exposure to the major risks.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended 5 April 2022
1 Accounting policies
Charity information
Peter & Teresa Harris Charitable Trust is a charitable trust constituted under a Trust deed dated 25 November 2010. The trust is a registered charity number 1161183. The trust was established by Peter and Teresa Harris by an initial gift of expendable endowment funds.
1.1 Accounting convention
The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the trust's governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and "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 trust is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.
The trust has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.
The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the trust. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to the nearest £.
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention. 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 trust 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 are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.
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 financial statements.
Endowment funds are subject to specific conditions by donors that the capital must be maintained by the trust.
1.4 Incoming resources
Income is recognised when the trust is legally entitled to it after any performance conditions have been met, the amounts can be measured reliably, and it is probable that income will be received.
Cash donations are recognised on receipt. Other donations are recognised once the trust has been notified of the donation, unless performance conditions require deferral of the amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of covenant is recognised at the time of the donation.
Legacies are recognised on receipt or otherwise if the trust has been notified of an impending distribution, the amount is known, and receipt is expected. If the amount is not known, the legacy is treated as a contingent asset.
Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement, and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

1 Accounting policies
(Continued)
1.5 Fixed asset investments
Fixed asset investments are initially measured at transaction price excluding transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Changes in fair value are recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred.
Basic financial assets
Basic financial assets, which include debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised.
Basic financial liabilities
Basic financial liabilities, including creditors and bank loans are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest. Financial liabilities classified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities. Trade creditors are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
2 Critical accounting estimates and judgements
In the application of the trust’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.
