**Chair's and Chief Executive’s Introduction** 

## Richard Frith Chair of Two Ridings 2022 - present 

## Celia McKeon, Chief Executive 

There is much to applaud about the last financial year, and to anticipate with hope for the current one. As the financial year ends, we are basking in the glow of a very affirming royal visit, preparing to say goodbye to Jan Garrill and to welcome her successor as CEO, Celia McKeon. 

Jan was an outstanding CEO, who was a real team player and built a committed, united and effective staff team. Celia is just as outstanding. The challenges remain, with great need all around us, but with our wonderfully generous donors and brilliant staff team, Two Ridings can continue to make a really positive, transformative difference for many individuals and communities. 

. 

It is an honour to succeed Jan Garrill as Chief Executive of Two Ridings Community Foundation, and to have the opportunity to sustain and build on the wonderful work that she, colleagues and trustees have done over many years to support communities across our region. 

In my first months in the role, I have been deeply impressed by the transformative power of so much local community action. Whether it is work to engage disadvantaged young people, to help people survive the cost of living crisis, or to create opportunities for improved wellbeing, social connection and learning – the common thread is that it kindles hope and changes lives on a daily basis. 

It is a privilege to work with donors and supporters, and with gifted and dedicated colleagues, who want to make this possible. Together we ensure that we direct funds to where they will make the greatest difference. There is huge need in our region, but also incredible talent, commitment and determination to build thriving, equitable and connected communities, and we are delighted to play our part in making that possible.

**Objectives and Activities** 

Two Ridings Community Foundation is a regional, independent charity committed to improving the quality of people's lives and building vibrant, equitable and connected communities in North and East Yorkshire. 

We help people and organisations make donations to and set up funds for causes that matter, and use these funds to make grants to local community organisations who respond to the needs of local people. We also deliver a leadership programme for leaders from the social and cultural sector in Hull and East Riding of Yorkshire. 

## Charitable Purpose 

The Foundation’s principal purpose is the promotion and support of any charitable activity for the benefit of the community in the City of York, the County of North Yorkshire, the County of the East Riding of Yorkshire and the City of Kingston upon Hull[1]. 

## Aims & Activities 

In order to achieve its charitable purpose and vision, the Foundation has two primary aims: 

To promote and facilitate philanthropy to raise funds for both immediate grant making and to grow the Foundation’s long-term endowment, ensuring grants will be available for years to come. 

To make grants to community projects, voluntary groups and small charities across North and East Yorkshire that address community needs and improve quality of life. 

## Public Benefit 

The Foundation has met its objectives regarding Public Benefit through the management of grant and support programmes to voluntary and community groups benefitting people living in North and East Yorkshire. 

We also make awards to groups outside this primary area of benefit should a donor or fund holder so wish. 

Further details of the 632 grants awarded are set out in notes 7 and 25 to the financial statements. Trustees confirm that they have understood and implemented the Charity Commission’s guidance on Public Benefit when planning and reviewing the Foundation’s charitable activities and policies. Every aspect of the work and expenditure of the Foundation is wholly aimed at public benefit. 

The grant making programme is directed at supporting community groups or individuals across North and East Yorkshire. The endowment of the Foundation is invested so that the yield on the funds is distributed to community groups for the benefit of members of the public of North and East Yorkshire, to local community groups and organisations (and some individuals) that are working to address community needs and improve the quality of life in the region. 

Additional projects such as HEY Confident Futures are aimed at supporting leaders of social and cultural organisations. 

## **Our Vision** 

A connected, thriving North and East Yorkshire for all 

[1] We can also carry out other similar activities in other parts of the United Kingdom and elsewhere which are, in the opinion of the Board, beneficial to the community.

## **Achievements and Performance** 

Two Ridings Community Foundation continued to increase its impact in 2022-23, successfully bringing in substantial new funds for the region, and ensuring that these were channelled effectively to local community organisations who are making a difference to people’s lives. 

While the coronavirus pandemic receded, its long-term impacts were still sharply felt during the year, particularly among the most vulnerable communities in our region. And in its aftermath, the Cost of Living Crisis has stretched many individuals, households and organisations to the limit. The Foundation has sought to ensure that both its fundraising and its grantmaking are attuned and responsive to the evolving needs of our communities, providing vital support to those who need it most.

## **Placin eo le at the heart of all we do g p p** 

At Two Ridings, we are committed to ensuring that we place people at the heart of everything we do. This applies both internally and externally – to our staff, trustees and volunteers, to our donors and supporters, to the local groups who apply to us for funding, and to the participants on our leadership programme. We know that placing value on relationships is key to building thriving, equitable and connected communities. 

We put this commitment into practice across our major initiatives in 2022-23. In November 2022, we hosted the Visit of HRH The Prince and Princess of Wales to Scarborough, providing an opportunity for them to learn first-hand about the crucial work being done with and by young people in the town. We were determined that the visit would be more than smiles and handshakes – that it would create a genuine opportunity for the Prince and Princess of Wales to understand the experiences, talents and challenges of young people, and to expose them to ways in which they can participate in grant-making decisions that affect their lives and opportunities. We also ensured a lasting legacy from the visit, using the opportunity to raise additional funds to support children and young people in the town for the long-term. 

Within our small team, we were delighted to welcome Jen Stone during the year, in the role of Operations and Admin Officer. Jen is an incredibly efficient and supportive member of the team, quickly getting to grips with our processes and ensuring the smooth running of our office. 

While the team was otherwise stable during the year, our Chief Executive Jan Garrill announced her intention to retire in summer 2023, after nine years at the helm. Trustees and staff worked hard together to deliver a successful recruitment process for her successor, and Celia McKeon was appointed to begin in post in April 2023, with Jan and Celia overlapping until May to provide a smooth transition, celebrated at a wonderful ‘Foundation for the Future’ event at Allerton Castle in May 2023. 

Our trustee board also remained stable. James Naylor retired from the Foundation in July 2022 after nine years’ service, having handed over the Chair to Richard Frith, and Hannah Harris retired at the end of the financial year, also after completing nine years of service. We are very grateful to them both for their contributions to our work.

**Ins irin investment into North & East Yorkshire p g** 

2022/23 was another successful year for the Foundation, as we attracted substantial new sources of funding and were able to sustain grant-making of just over £2.1 million. 

Of particular note was an award of £1.3 million for work in Hull, secured from the UK Government’s Department of Culture, Media and Sport, as part of a partnership arrangement of nine UK foundations working together under the auspices of our umbrella body, UK Community Foundations. The award is focused on supporting work to reduce chronic loneliness and social isolation, and promote volunteering, with a particular emphasis on embedding learning into the work in order to identify scalable and sustainable place-based interventions. The Foundation carried out a first round of funding in the final quarter of 2022/23, in preparation for a major funding round for multi-year grants in 2023/24. 

Shortly before the Royal Visit, we also worked with the then High Sheriff of North Yorkshire, James Lambert OBE, to put on a ‘Dragons Den’ at Tennants of Leyburn. Six small local charities pitched to four Yorkshire ‘dragons’ to gain funding for their projects supporting local people in their communities. After some passionate pitches, the groups came away with just shy of £50,000 between them.

## **Ins irin investment into North & East Yorkshire p g** 

Other new donors and funds this period included the Williams Family Fund (both revenue and endowment funding), the Liz and Terry Bramall Foundation (revenue funding), the Button family setting up Terry’s Fund (endowment), Insite Property (revenue funding) and NHS Resilience Hub funding (for which the funds remain held by the NHS but the Foundation provided grant-making support). We were delighted that the visit of HRH The Prince and Princess of Wales to Scarborough assisted us in leveraging more than £300k in endowment and revenue funding for long-term work in the town. 

And finally, our thanks also go to existing supporters who sustained their revenue funding throughout the year, including The Dulverton Trust, Joseph Rowntree Charitable Trust, Lankelly Chase, Nimbuscare, Peter Sowerby Foundation, the National Lottery Community Fund,  Rank Foundation, the Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St Michael Le Belfrey with St Cuthbert, and to all the donors who have continued to trust us with endowment funds, which provide a stable core to our grant-making and operations. 

In addition, we are grateful to the many donors who contributed to our Cost of Living Crisis Fund, including North Yorkshire Council, East Riding of Yorkshire Council, Bettys and Taylors Group, and many other private individuals for their donations, both large and small.

## **Transformin communities throu h rant makin g g g g** 

At the heart of our grant making is a commitment to creating the conditions for thriving, connected communities. We understand how place shapes these conditions, and consequently, Two Ridings ensures that all its grant decisions are in turn shaped by people with intimate knowledge and understanding of both the challenges and possibilities that exist in different places within our region. 

During last autumn, we launched our Cost of Living Crisis Appeal in response to the devastating impacts of the widening gap between wages and price rises, and the rising numbers of people without sufficient food, fuel and funds for essentials. We were proud to raise almost half a million pounds in the first six months, and distributed this rapidly to support community organisations to provide emergency supplies, and then to help these groups meet their own rising costs for providing these services. 

Other crisis work included managing the Tadcaster and Selby District Business Flood Grant Scheme, made possible by generous funding from the then Selby District Council. The Fund enabled local businesses to purchase tools, make repairs, cover clean up costs, and address personal hardship arising from the floods. 

Throughout the year, we also continued to convene and chair our ongoing grants panels in Harrogate, Hull, Scarborough and York, which considered and made decisions on applications assessed by our staff and volunteers. And we continued to bring together community panels to distribute the windfarm funds we manage in Knabs Ridge, Six Penny Wood and Rusholme. In total, our panels brought together 60 people with a range of expertise and insight into the communities they live and work in. 

With the intention of strengthening our contribution to tackling the climate crisis, we undertook a pilot round of grant-making with this as a cross-cutting theme, and hope to learn from the experience of these grants for our future strategy in this area. 

Alongside our grant-making practice, we also revised and updated our grants policy during the year. This is a crucial document for us, as it shapes the scope of our funding, defines our processes, and allows applicants to understand how we work. We are proud to have a policy which facilitates our commitment to being a flexible, generous and relational funder, supporting varying types of organisations to make a vital difference in their communities.

## **Contributin to ositive chan e in our communities g p g** 

We are delighted to have received confirmation of continuation funding from the National Lottery Community Fund, enabling us to continue to develop the HEY Confident Futures (HEYCF) Programme over the next three years. Its goal is to support and develop voluntary and cultural sector leaders through a bespoke programme, which works at the level of the individual, the organisation and the place. 

The programme has a number of strands, working in particular with emerging leaders in our ‘New To Leadership’ cohorts, with a CEOs cohort, and with organisations supporting racially minoritised people. The latter cohort has subsequently developed into a collective known as the Leadership Advocacy Network, modelling a practice of connected and collaborative working that typifies the underpinning values of the programme. 

Across our work, Two Ridings also seeks out opportunities to work in partnership with other organisations, as we know that this creates the potential to increase our collective impact. 

Key examples of this during 2022-23 include our work with the Humber Coast and Vale partnership, our engagement with the British Science Association in relation to the Ideas Fund in Hull, and our collaboration with the Joseph Rowntree Foundation on the Yorkshire and Humber Funding Ecology report. We also continued to play an active role in numerous networks across the region. 

One of the highlights of the HEYCF programme during the year was a vibrant leadership conference in July, bringing together almost 80 leaders from across Hull and the East Riding for a day of outstanding speeches, activities and networking opportunities.

**Plans for the future** 

## Ambitions for 2023/24 

As we look ahead, we plan to build on the achievements of the last twelve month, and ensure that the foundation continues to grow and flourish for the benefit of the communities we support. 

Image: Pioneer Projects 


Page 13 



## **Plans for the future** 

## People 

2023/24 will be a year of transition for the Foundation, with our outgoing CEO, Jan Garrill retiring after almost nine outstanding years at the helm. Our focus will therefore be on ensuring a successful and smooth transition to the new CEO, Celia McKeon. 

We will also continue to support all our people – whether staff, trustees or volunteers – to thrive in their respective roles so that we can make the best possible impact across the region. Given the rapid expansion in our grant-making over recent years, we will review our staff capacity to ensure we can resource the grant programmes effectively and maintain robust financial systems and operating processes. We will also prepare for the roll-out across the UK Community Foundations network of a new grants database, which should make our systems more efficient, and free up precious staff time for our outward-facing work. 

We are also working with the new High Sheriff of North Yorkshire, Clare Granger, to develop a new angle on the previous Dragons Den formula. This will involve running a photography competition, inviting images that showcase the extraordinary work of community groups across our region. Entries to the competition will be reviewed by a panel of judges, with the winning groups invited to a Photography Exhibition and Showcase at Allerton Castle near Knaresborough, where they will have an opportunity to bring their images to life for an invited audience and receive their cash prizes. 

## Investment 

Our ambition for the year ahead is to continue to grow our endowment, helping current and potential donors understand the impact of the grants we make. 

We will continue to raise money for our Cost of Living Crisis Fund, as we are acutely aware that the crisis is still with us and that this emergency support remains a lifeline for people and organisations. We will also seek out opportunities to secure and direct revenue funds that are responsive to local needs and priorities. 

As the number of funds that we manage continues to grow, we will also explore opportunities to connect donors and pool funds where there are shared interests and priorities, and work with partners in the region to design and deliver grant-making opportunities that are timely, accessible and flexible.

## **Plans for the future** 

## Community funding 

A major priority for 2022-23 will be delivering the Know Your Neighbourhood Fund, a £1.3 million investment in tackling loneliness and promoting volunteering in Hull. 

## Societal change 

Our HEY Confident Futures programme will continue to support participants in Hull and East Yorkshire at all stages of their leadership journey. 

We are excited to build on our previous years of funding in Hull to be able to deliver a grant programme at this larger scale, getting much-needed levels of investment into some wonderful organisations and initiatives throughout the city. We are also keen to contribute to the programme’s ambitions to enable partnership and learning, through a strong focus on evaluation in all of the funded projects. 

We will continue our responsive place-based funding around the region as well as delivering further rounds of Cost of Living crisis funding. Given the scale of our grant making, we also hope to recruit additional volunteer assessors to support our staff team, and ensure that we create opportunities for applicants to do their work justice through dialogue and engagement during the assessment process. 

Over the course of the year we will continue to deepen our work with the CEOs cohort, the New to Leadership cohort ad the Leadership Advocacy network, offering a range of highly tailored programme content in response to the needs of each group. 

We will also continue to explore opportunities for partnership and collaboration across our region, as an active member of key networks and a vocal advocate for the crucial and life-changing work of community action.

**Structure, Governance and Management** 

## Charity Name 

Two Ridings Community Foundation, previously the York and North Yorkshire Community Foundation and also known locally as the Community Foundation and Two Ridings CF. 

## Charity Status 

The Two Ridings Community Foundation is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation registered with the Charity Commission, Charity Registration No. 1166471. 

The Charity was originally established and registered with the Charity Commission in October 2000, Charity Registration No. 1084043, governed by a Deed of Trust dated 5th October 2000 and amended on 27th April 2010 and 2nd February 2011. The new Charitable Incorporated Organisation was registered with the Charity Commission on 11 April 2016. On 1st September 2016 all the assets and liabilities of the former charity were transferred to the new Charitable Incorporated Organisation. 

The charitable incorporated organisation (CIO) model for charities was launched by the Government in 2013 to combine the benefits of being a charity with those of being a company. Any charity that wanted to convert to CIO status had to wind up the old organisation and start a new CIO. Two Ridings CF trustees decided in 2015/16 that they wanted to convert Two Ridings from an unincorporated registered charity to a CIO because of the limited liability protection the CIO offers. 

## Trustees 

Trustees are individuals who form the Foundation’s governing body and have the overall legal responsibility for the charity. Trustees guide the Foundation’s vision, values and strategic direction; and support and promote the development of the Foundation. All Board members are expected to commit to and uphold the values and objectives of the Foundation; act with integrity and avoid/ declare personal conflicts of interest; give adequate time and energy to the duties of being a trustee; use their skills and experience to the benefit of the Foundation; attend and contribute to meetings and events. 

A trustee is appointed for a term of three years. A retiring trustee is eligible for re-appointment, except that a charity trustee who has served for three consecutive terms may not be reappointed for a fourth consecutive term of office but may be reappointed after an interval of at least two years. The constitution states that there must be a minimum of three and a maximum of sixteen trustees. 

The day-to-day management of the Foundation is overseen by the Chair and the Board of Trustees. 

## Meetings 

Trustees formally meet as a board a minimum of four times throughout the year. At these meetings the trustees agree the broad strategy and areas of activity for the Foundation, including consideration of grant making, investment, fundraising, human resources, health and safety, reserves and risk management policies and performance. There are also regular reports from the CEO and the Head of Finance & Operations. All charity policies are reviewed on a rolling two year cycle. 

Trustees are also members of sub-committees with the following delegated responsibilities: 

Finance & General Purpose: Finance, Risk, Data Protection, IT and HR 

Investment Committee: Investment management 

Grants Committee: Grant making policies procedures and strategy 

Governance & Nominations Committee: The Foundation also convenes a Governance & Nominations Committee as needed. 


Page 16 



**Structure, Governance and Management** 

## Recruitment, Induction and Training of Trustees 

The Board keeps the skill requirements for the Trustee Body under review via the Governance Committee. Recruitment of new trustees is by open advertisement and dialogue with interested parties and is overseen by the Governance Committee. When an individual expresses an interest in becoming a trustee, an initial meeting is held with the Chair and subsequently with other trustees. References are sought and a proposal to appoint a new trustee is submitted to the Board for approval. Once an appointment has been made, the newly elected trustee undergoes an induction programme. 

The Foundation keeps up-to-date with key developments by subscription to a number of membership organisations. Training is provided to trustees as and when required, through attendance at training and other Community Foundation events and online resources. A meeting of trustees each year is used to assess board effectiveness and agree action plans to address areas for development. 

## Remuneration of key management personnel 

Remuneration of key management personnel is reviewed annually by the Governance & Nominations Committee, in consultation with the Finance & General Purposes Committee, and recommendations made to the Trustee Board. Their remuneration is also bench-marked with grant-making charities of a similar size and activity to ensure that the remuneration set is fair and not out of line with that generally paid for similar roles. 

## Associations and Affiliations 

The Foundation is part of a national network of 47 independent community foundations across the UK. The Foundation’s umbrella body, UK Community Foundations (UKCF) provides on-going help and support to foundations. UKCF represents local foundations at a national and international level, and negotiates and manages national grant making and funding opportunities. Two Ridings Community Foundation pays an annual membership fee to be part of the network. For more information on UKCF visit www.ukcommunityfoundations.org. 

The Foundation is also a member of Community First Yorkshire and York CVS, working with them and other local development agencies to promote its grants. 

## UKCF Accreditation 

The Foundation has the UKCF Quality Accreditation (QA5) issued in October 2021. The accreditation process is independently assessed and is recognised by national funders and the voluntary sector as a mark of excellence for Community Foundations.

**Structure, Governance and Management** 

## Risk Management 

The Foundation has a Risk Register which is updated and reviewed regularly by the relevant sub committees and trustee board. Trustees have identified the principal risks to which the charity is exposed and established appropriate controls and procedures to mitigate risks.The main risks facing the Foundation are: 

- Failure to attract new funds and grow in line with long term plan and development goals 

- Loss of key staff and failure to manage the leadership transition effectively 

- Managing funds with potentially adverse reputational consequences 

Trustees considered the mitigations required to mitigate these risks and worked with staff to ensure that these were put in place. 

We also continue to place a high priority on managing our relationships and associated data in line with the increased regulatory frameworks that all charities face. These include the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR), fundraising regulations, and safeguarding procedures. 

Trustees have appropriate controls and procedures in place to mitigate the risks including the following: 

- Employing staff with appropriate training, skills and experience where necessary. Completing an annual business plan, including long term strategic development plan, diversification of income sources and fundraising for core costs. To review insurance provision annually. 

- To have a comprehensive investment policy, and to review investment allocations and performance on a regular basis. 

- To establish and review policies and procedures regularly. 

- To hold regular meetings between the Chair and the Chief Executive to discuss and review workload, aims and achievements. 

## Fundraising 

The Community Foundation is registered with the Fundraising Regulator which is the independent regulator of charitable fundraising. All our fundraising aims to meet the requirements of the Charity Commission, the Fundraising Regulator and the Information Commissioner’s Office. 

We are committed to following best practice in fundraising and follow the Code of Fundraising Practice issued by the Fundraising Regulator. 

The vast majority of our income generation activity is undertaken by our own staff or on our behalf through introductions made by ambassadors and professional advisors. We also connect to potential donors and partners through networking and by raising our profile through communications. We do not share information about donors or supporters without their express permission. 

We do not use direct marketing, telephone, or doorstep fundraising and do not employ professional fundraisers or use commercial participators to raise funds on our behalf. Some fundraising may be done for us by third parties, for example community groups who have supported our Disaster Relief funds, or funds where a donor wishes to raise money from friends or family in memory of a loved one. We encourage all volunteer fundraisers to comply with fundraising regulations and are working to develop additional training and guidance to support them. 

At Two Ridings we work hard to maintain our reputation and high professional standards. All staff and volunteers receive appropriate training and adhere to our policies and procedures, with particular regard to protecting vulnerable people and being sensitive to people who may be in vulnerable circumstances. We are proud of the trusted relationships we have with donors, supporters and the public and aim to treat everyone, fairly and with respect. 

Feedback is important to us to help us monitor and improve our practices. During the year there have been no reported compliance issues with the Code of Fundraising Practice. The Community Foundation also maintains records of all complaints received and during the year received no complaints on its fundraising activities

**Financial Review** 

## Financial Statements 

The financial statements cover the 12 month period from 1st April 2022 – 31st March 2023. The net movement in funds after investment gains and losses for the 12 month period was a net decrease in funds of £348,902 (2022: £2,310,492 increase in funds) 

Total income for the 12 month period to 31st March 2023 was £2,911,769 compared with £4,673,837 for the previous year. This included £239,550 for establishing new endowment funds. During the period 632 grants were awarded across 31 programmes totalling £2,156,307 (2022: £2,174,853). 

The value of the Foundation’s total endowment decreased to £8,116,390 at 31st March 2023 from £8,643,701 at 31st March 2022 due to market volatility on investments.

## Reserves Policy 

The Trustees are committed to holding general reserves to ensure that the core activities of the Foundation will continue into the future. The target is to hold a reserve fund equivalent to at least six months core operating costs of the organisation to ensure the smooth running of the Foundation in the event of short term variations in income or unforeseen financial circumstances. 

Trustees have also designated £40,730 for Digital Development to support digital transformation projects over the next 2 years including the upgrade of the Foundation’s CRM database and finance software. 

Based on the 2023-24 forecast the required level of general reserves would be at least £195,000. At 31st March 2023 the balance of available ‘free’ reserves, being the balance of unrestricted funds excluding fixed assets and designated funds is £272,737, which is equivalent to approximately 8 months running costs. 

Given the impact the cost of living crisis and challenging economic environment is having on the sector and general funding environment, trustees consider there is likely to be increased uncertainty and risk to income streams for the next 2 years. 

Trustees therefore consider it prudent to maintain their policy of budgeting for modest surpluses on unrestricted funds with the aim of maintaining reserve levels between 6-12 months running costs during this unprecedented period.

## **Financial Review** 

## Investment Policy 

The Investment Committee is appointed to oversee the management of the Foundation’s investments and meets regularly to review investment performance and investment policy. The trustees have the power to invest in such assets as they see fit. Trustees are mindful of ethical investment considerations and expect its investment managers to optimise performance through Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) considerations and investment in well managed companies. As the investment landscape changes, trustees are exploring new approaches to responsible, sustainable and impact investing. 

The Trustees have passed a total return resolution for permanent endowments which took effect from 1st April 2018 – see note 16 for further details. When determining the amount of unapplied total return to transfer to income the trustees have considered the amount of income required to maintain the current level of grant making activity and the likely needs of future beneficiaries. The expendable endowment is also treated by Trustees as a long term capital fund to provide income for current and future grant making. 

In holding long term investments the Trustees seek to achieve the following objectives: 

- To grow the overall value of the investment in order to attract new donors to develop the philanthropic objectives of the Foundation. 

- To maintain the real capital value of the endowment over the long term and achieve a stable and sustainable return to fund grant making across our region and help support the operational costs of the Foundation. To invest in a medium risk portfolio consistent with the approach to risk agreed by Trustees. To optimise performance through investment in a diversified portfolio with an ESG approach. 

The main investment risk to the Foundation lies in the combination of uncertain investment markets and volatility in returns. The Foundation manages these investment risks by retaining expert advisors and operating an investment policy that provides for a high degree of diversification of holdings within investment asset classes that are quoted on recognised stock exchanges. 

## Investment Performance 

During these times of exceptional volatility our investment committee remains vigilant in monitoring performance but as long term investors we are also mindful of not being reactive and remain committed to following our long term investment objectives. 

The investment portfolio during 2022-23 was held with two Investment Managers, CCLA and Brown Shipley. Both portfolios performed as expected based on their investment approach and compared to the benchmarks. 

Over the 12 month period the total return of the CCLA Charity Investment Fund was -0.90% compared to a return on the comparator of -3.97%. The Property Fund has also performed above the benchmark, -11.89% compared to benchmark of -14.84%, with performance supported by the broad portfolio structure and limited exposure to traditional retail assets. Income distributions were between 2.9 – 5.1% per annum. 

The performance of the Brown Shipley portfolio was a return of -7.98% compared to the benchmark of -4.49%. 

At the end of 2022, having monitored fund manager performance, Trustees instigated a review of Investment Managers. After a formal tender process, trustees were pleased to confirm the appointment of Waverton as managers for part of our portfolio from October 2023. CCLA also continue to manage part of our portfolio. 

## Commitments 

The trustees had made no commitments to future capital purchases, nor given any guarantees, at the balance sheet date.

In preparing these financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

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 financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 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.

**Independent Auditor’s Report to the Trustees of Two Ridings Community Foundation** 

## Opinion 

We have audited the financial statements of Two Ridings Community Foundation for the year ended 31st March 2023 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet 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 including Financial Reporting Standard 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

In our opinion the financial statements: 

- give a true and fair view of the state of the charity's affairs as at 31st March 2023 and of its income and expenditure, for the period then ended; have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice, 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 Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. 

We are independent of the 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 

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the ISAs (UK) require us to report to you where: 

- the trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is not appropriate; or 

- the trustees have not disclosed in the financial statements any identified material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the Charity’s ability to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting for a period of at least twelve months from the date when the financial statements are authorised for issue. 

## 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 auditor’s report 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 there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. 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. 


Page 22 



## **Independent Auditor’s Report** 

## Matters on which we are required to report by exception 

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the Charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees’ Annual Report. 

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities Act 2011 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: 

- sufficient accounting records have not been kept; the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns; or we have not obtained all the information and explanations necessary for the purposes of our audit. 

## Responsibilities of the trustees 

As explained more fully in the trustees’ responsibilities statement set out on page 21, the trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as they 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 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 Charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.

## **Independent Auditor’s Report** 

## Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements 

We have been appointed as auditor under The Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder. 

- we focused on specific laws and regulations which we considered may have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the charity, including the Charities Act 2011, taxation legislation, data protection, anti-bribery and employment legislation; 

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 an auditor’s report 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 noncompliance 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: 

Our approach to identifying and assessing the risks of material misstatement in respect of irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations, was as follows: 

- we assessed the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations identified above through making enquiries of management and inspecting legal correspondence; and 

- identified laws and regulations were communicated within the audit team regularly and the team remained alert to instances of non-compliance throughout the audit. 

We assessed the susceptibility of the charity’s financial statements to material misstatement, including obtaining an understanding of how fraud might occur, by: 

- making enquiries of management as to where they considered there was susceptibility to fraud, their knowledge of actual, suspected and alleged fraud; and 

- considering the internal controls in place to mitigate risks of fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations; 

To address the risk of fraud through management bias and override of controls, we: 

- performed analytical procedures to identify any unusual or unexpected relationships; 

the engagement partner ensured that the engagement team collectively had the appropriate competence, capabilities and skills to identify or recognise noncompliance with applicable laws and regulations; 

- we identified the laws and regulations applicable to the charity through discussions with trustees and other management, and from our commercial knowledge and experience of the not for profit and charity sector; 

- tested journal entries to identify unusual transactions; 

- assessed whether judgements and assumptions made in determining accounting estimates were indicative of potential bias; and 

- investigated the rationale behind significant or unusual transactions; 


Page 24 



**Inde endent Auditor’s Re ort p p** 

In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, we designed procedures which included, but were not limited to: 

- agreeing financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation; 

- reading the minutes of meetings of those charged with governance; and 

- enquiring of management as to actual and potential litigation and claims; 

There are inherent limitations in our audit procedures described above. The more removed that laws and regulations are from financial transactions, the less likely it is that we would become aware of non-compliance. Auditing standards also limit the audit procedures required to identify non-compliance with laws and regulations to enquiry of the directors and other management and the inspection of regulatory and legal correspondence, if any. 

Material misstatements that arise due to fraud can be harder to detect than those that arise from error as they may involve deliberate concealment or collusion. 

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 auditor’s report. 

## Use of our report 

This report is made solely to the charity's trustees, as a body, in accordance with section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and the regulations made under section 154 of that Act. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity's trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor's report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity's trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

## TWO RIDINGS COMMUNITY FOUNDATION 

## Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2023 

## **1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **a) Basis of Accounting** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued on 16 July 2014 and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011. 

Two Ridings Community Foundation meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. 

The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant notes to these accounts. 

## **b) Preparation of accounts on  a going concern basis** 

The trustees consider there are no material uncertainties about the Charity's ability to continue as a going concern. The review of our financial position, reserves levels and future plans gives Trustees confidence the charity remains a going concern for the foreseeable future. 

## **c) Critical Accounting Judgements and Key Sources of Estimation Uncertainty** 

The most significant areas of adjustment and key assumptions that affect items in the accounts are to do with estimating the liability from multi-year grant commitments (see note 1(j) and note 13 ). With respect to the next reporting period, 2023-24, the most significant areas of uncertainty that affect the carrying value of assets held by the Foundation are the level of investment return and the performance of investment markets (see the investment policy and  investment performance sections of the trustees’ annual report for more information). 

## **d) Fund Accounting** 

Restricted funds are funds that can only be used for particular restricted purposes within the objects of the charity. Restrictions arise when specified by the donor or when funds are raised for a specific purpose. 

Unrestricted funds are funds which can be used in accordance with the charitable objects at the discretion of the trustees. 

Permanent Endowment funds are retained for the benefit of the charity as a capital fund which cannot be distributed. Income generated by the investments, after costs of administration, is distributed in accordance with the wishes of the donor. 

Expendable Endowment funds are retained for the benefit of the charity as a capital fund. The capital and income generated by the investments, may be distributed at the discretion of the trustees and in accordance with the wishes of the donor. 

## **e) Incoming Resources** 

Grants, including grants for the purchase of fixed assets, are recognised in full in the Statement of Financial Activities in the year in which they were receivable. Grants are only deferred on the instruction of the donor. All other incoming resources are included in the SOFA when the charity is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy. 

Donated facilities and professional services are recognised as income at their fair value when their economic benefit is probable, it can be measured reliably, and the charity has control over the benefits arising. Fair value is determined on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity, equivalent to the amount the charity would pay in the open market. 

Page 29 



## TWO RIDINGS COMMUNITY FOUNDATION 

## Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2023 

## **f) Resources Expended** 

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. 

Grants payable are payments made to third parties in the furtherance of the charity's objectives. Single or multi year grants are charged in the year the offer is conveyed to the recipient except in those cases where the offer is conditional, such grants being recognised as expenditure when the conditions attaching are fulfilled. At the year end grants offered that have not been paid out are included in creditors. 

Overhead and support costs: Where these are specific they have been allocated directly to the appropriate charitable activity. All other overheads have been allocated in proportion to staff time spent on each activity. Further details are shown in note 5. 

Raising funds comprise expenses incurred in seeking voluntary contributions and an apportionment of overhead and support costs. 

Charitable activities include grants made, development of the Foundation and an apportionment of overhead and support costs. Governance costs are those in connection with constitutional and statutory requirements including  associated management time and an apportionment of overhead and support costs. 

## **g) Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation** 

Tangible fixed assets costing more than £1,000 are capitalised and included at cost including any incidental expenses of acquisition. 

Depreciation of tangible fixed assets is provided at the following annual rates to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. 

Computer equipment 25% straight line Office equipment 25% straight line 

## **h) Fixed Asset Investments** 

Investments are a form of basic financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction value and subsequently measured at their fair value as at the balance sheet date using the closing quoted market price. The statement of financial activities includes the net gains and losses arising on revaluation and disposals throughout the year. The Trust does not acquire put options, derivatives or other complex financial instruments. 

## **i) Realised gains and losses** 

All gains and losses are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities as they arise. Realised gains and losses on investments are calculated as the difference between sales proceeds and their opening carrying value or their purchase value if acquired subsequent to the first day of the financial year. Unrealised gains and losses are calculated as the difference between the fair value at the year end and their carrying value. Realised and unrealised investment gains and losses are combined in the Statement of Financial Activities. 

## **j) Pensions** 

The Foundation offers a defined contribution pension scheme for employees. Contributions are charged to the SOFA in the period to which they relate. The assets of the scheme are held separately from those of the Foundation in independently administered funds. (See notes 20 and 21 for further details)

## Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2023 

## **20 PENSION SCHEME** 

Two Ridings Community Foundation currently participates in The Pensions Trust Growth Plan Series 4, which is a multi-employer defined contribution pension plan. The policy provides for benefits on a defined contribution basis and the pension provider holds the assets underlying the policy. 

In earlier years, Two Ridings Community Foundation participated in the Pensions Trust Growth Plan Series 3, which is a multi-employer defined benefit pension plan. Growth Plan Series 3 was previously regarded as a money purchase scheme. 

As at the balance sheet date there were 10 active members of the plan employed by Two Ridings Community Foundation, 1 deferred member and 1 pensioner member. 

Two Ridings Community Foundation is unable to identify its share of the underlying assets and liabilities of the scheme as each employer is exposed to actuarial risks associated with the current and former employees of other entities participating in the scheme. The last formal valuation of the Plan was at September 2020. The Technical Provisions (or scheme funding) basis is used for calculating the Plan's ongoing funding position. At September 2020 the value of the Plan's assets was £799 million and liabilities were £832 million. The valuation revealed a funding deficit of £33 million (2017 triennial valuation: £132 million), equivalent to a funding level of 96%  (2017: 86%). These values include Growth Plan Series 1, 2 and 3. 

In accordance with FRS 102 Two Ridings Community Foundation is required to account for the pension costs on the basis of contributions actually payable to the scheme in the year. Two Ridings Community Foundation paid contributions to Growth Plan Series 4 to match the members contribution during the year of 5% and because it only contributed to Growth Plan Series 3 in previous years, and never made contributions to Series 1 or 2,  it does not currently have to make contributions to the deficit. 

## **21 CONTINGENT LIABILITY** 

There is a potential liability to meet deficits on funding for the defined benefit scheme (Growth Plan Series 3) if at any time Two Ridings Community Foundation ceases to have active members of the Pensions Trust Growth Plan scheme. On 30 September 2022 the potential liabilty upon withdrawal in respect of the Series 3 Scheme was advised as being £4,413 (September 2021: £7,572)
