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

Objectives and aims

The trustees shall hold the capital and income of the Trust Fund upon trust to apply the income, and all or such part or parts of the capital, at such time or times in such manner to, or for the benefit of, such exclusively charitable objectives and purposes in any part of the world as the trustees may in their discretion think fit.

Significant activities

The trust is set up to benefit children, young people, other charities or voluntary bodies through the making of grants to individuals or organisations to support general charitable purposes, education, training, arts, culture, amateur sports and conservation.

Public benefit

The trustees consider that they have complied with their duty to have due regard for the guidance regarding public benefit published by the Charity Commission.

Grantmaking

The trust provides grants to individuals and organisations for the benefit of children and young people and other charities and voluntary bodies.

ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE

Charitable activities

The trust has received donations which are used to achieve the charitable objectives by the making of grants to charitable causes.

Investment performance

Investment income relates to dividends received from unlisted investments and interest received on cash at bank. The trustees review the performance of bank accounts to ensure they are achieving the best interest rates.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Reserves policy

The reserves policy aims to maintain sufficient funds to continue to support the charitable objectives. The figure for reserves at the end of the period stands at £2,669,289.

FUTURE PLANS

The trustees will utilise the reserves to make grants to individuals and organisations for the benefit of children and young people and other charities and voluntary organisations.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

Governing document

The charity is controlled by its governing document, a deed of trust and constitutes an unincorporated charity.

Recruitment and appointment of new trustees

The power of appointing new trustees shall be vested in the settlor during his lifetime and thereafter in the trustees. A new trustee may be appointed at any time, but so that the total number of trustees shall at no time exceed four.

All trustees are made aware of the objectives of the charity during their induction process and have some relevant prior experience.

Organisational structure

The trustees hold at least two meetings in each calendar year in which the financial and operational management of the trust are reviewed, as well as approving policy, strategic plans and ensuring proper governance of the trust.

Related parties

None of the trustees receive remuneration or other benefit from their work with the charity. Any contractual relationship must be disclosed and notes of interest are retained in written form.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE TROUTSDALE CHARITABLE TRUST

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The Troutsdale Charitable Trust

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of The Troutsdale Charitable Trust (the Trust) for the year ended 5 April 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

Since your charity's gross income exceeded £250,000 your examiner must be a member of a listed body. I can confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a registered member of ICAEW which is one of the listed bodies.

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:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. 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.

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

Use of report

This report is made solely to the Charity's trustees, as a body, in accordance with Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011. My work has been undertaken so that I might state to the charity's trustees those matters I am required to state to them in an independent examiner's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity's trustees as a body, for my work, or for the opinions I have formed.

THE TROUTSDALE CHARITABLE TRUST

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS for the year ended 5 April 2022

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

The Troutsdale Charitable Trust is a charitable trust registered with the Charity Commission in England and Wales. The charity's registered number and principal office address can be found within the Report of the Trustees.

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

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 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investments which are included at market value, as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

The financial statements are presented in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity.

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. Donations and gifts are recognised when receivable at fair value.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that 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. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.

Allocation and apportionment of costs

Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the trust but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include finance and governance costs which support the trust's activities.

Taxation

The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.

Preparation of the accounts on a going concern basis

The trustees have prepared the accounts on a going concern basis on the grounds that the trust has a healthy balance sheet and that anticipated levels of income and expenditure will be sufficient together with the level of reserves held for the trust, so there are no material uncertainties regarding going concern.

Financial instruments

The trust only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities such as trade, other debtors and creditors. Debt instruments that are payable or receivable within one year, typically debtors or creditors, are measured initially or subsequently at the undiscounted amount of cash or other consideration expected to be paid or received.

The trust also holds investments in unlisted shares, which are measured at the trustees' best estimate of open market value at each year end with reference to independent valuations periodically performed. Listed investments are included at their market value as at the balance sheet date.

Investments

Investments include shares held in an unlisted company and are stated at the trustees' best estimate of fair value when acquired and then subsequently revalued at each year end, based on independent valuation reports of open market value periodically prepared. Listed investments are included at their market value as at the balance sheet date. Investments also include investment property being a beneficial interest in land included at the trustees' best estimate of open market value. The statement of financial activities includes the net gains and losses arising on revaluations and disposals during the period.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued for the year ended 5 April 2022

2. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Investments

In preparing the financial statements, management is required to make estimates and assumptions which affect reported income, expenses, assets, liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Use of available information and application of judgement are inherent in the formation of estimates, together with past experience and expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results in the future could differ from such estimates.

Critical judgements in applying the company's policies

The trustees have used their judgement to assess the fair value of unlisted shares based on independent valuation reports prepared.

Critical accounting estimates and assumptions

The trustees do not consider that any of the estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of these financial statements have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.
