ObJoCt8 and actlvltlm of th• charlty
The purpoM$ of the charlty as Sot out In It¥ govornlng docum•nt.
The Paul Strank Charitable Trust has been set up to #upport disadvantagéd familias, with a focus on
allevialing poverty, illnes8 or other hardship for children. In doing 80, we hope to brlng some measure of relief,
happiness & joy to th08e in our community desperately In need of compa88ion & supp￿1.
Tho maln actlvltl•8 undertakon In rolatlon to tho•• purpo••8 durfng the y•ar.
The focu8 of our fundraising efforts in 2024 was to continue the steady recovery from the challenges brought
about by the Covld-related slowdown in prevtous year8. The year began with a small bui symbollc c8mpaign, as
we supported a local triathlon participant, Dlogo Bolan, who generously chose to raise funds on behalf of the
Trust. Imlh minimal financial outlay limited to branded clothing for Ihe event and the implemenlalion of a QR
coje-based donats'on plafform, we wer8 able to facilitate his efforts. Diogo's commrtm8nl and enlhusiasm
translated Into a commendable totsl of just over £4.000 raised for the Char￿Y. and the ￿MpaIgn provlded both
visibilily and renknied momenlum for the year ahead.
Building on this promislng start, we held a Spring Charity Party wlth Raynes Park Vale. In keeping with previous
events of Ihis kind, the gathering was modest In scale but rlch in community spirit and support. Hosted at a local
venue and attended by long-standing friends and new supporters allke, Ihe event served nol only to raise much-
needed funds but also to reaffirm our conneclions with the local cornmunity. The evening generated
approximately £15.000 in donatlons and conttlbutions.
The centiepiece of our fundraTrsing calendar once again proved to ba our Annual Charity Gala, which remains the
Trust's principal source of fundraising income. We are deeply gratefvl to the team al the Royal Garden Hotel in
Kensington. who once again extended their generous support by offerlng preferenllal rates and conslderable
Ilexibilty. Thelr willingness to provide a large function space. as well as adjoining rooms to accommodate our
celebrity guests and entertainment preparations, greally contributed to the smoolh running and overall success of
the evening. The event ralsed apwoximalely £38.000 and allowed us to reconnect with many of our long-standing
donors and partners in an atmosphere of celebration and shared purpose.
Rounding off the year, we launched our Christmas Appeal an annual oUt￿a¢h to previous supporters and the
wider local community. While smaller in scale, the campaign was warmly Teceived and helped maintain our
presence during the festive season. Through a combination of individual donalions and community support, we
were able to raise approximately £1.700.

Trustees. Annual Report for the year ended 31 December 2024
Each of these evenis played an important role in supporting the financial stsbility of the Trust during the year,
enabling us to continue our work and plan future grants with confidence.
The maSn actlvttlos undortakon durlng the year to further the ¢harlty'8 purpose for the publlc bonofit.
The Paul Strank Charltable Trusl considers grant applications from within the London Borough of Merton and
oss the UK, pr¢)vided they allgn with our objectives. In 2024, we received fewer appltcations than in previous
years, which, given the limited number of projecls we eAn support. was a welcome change from years where
many had to be turned away.
As in previous years, the Trustees prioritised funding for young people, individuals facing hardship. and the
public and particularly where support can relieve need, hardship, sickness, disability or dlstress.
Applications from prevlous recipients and un$uc¢es8ful applicants are considered on their own merits. Vthile
past outcomes are noted, they do not Infiuence the decision on new applications.
The TTU8tee8 aim to support 8 broad range of organisatlons, with a focus on grassroots and small-to-medium-
Sized voluntary groups. Grants may also be awarded to indlviduals. assessed case by case. The Charity is open
to partnerships with other oiganisatlons lo support initiatives beyond the scope of any single body. However, it
is our policy not to fund aclivilies for which the govemment has a statutory re8ponsibllity.
All appllcatlons undergo an Snitial eligibiliiy check. Trustees revlew ellglble applications at theSr rneetlngs, but
due to high demand, responses may not be possible in all cases. Even strong applications may be declined due
to limited funds, and Trustees are not obliged to provide reasons for rej8ction8.
All grants are monitored, with conditions set where necessary. Progress is assessed agalnst agreed targets. For
grants paid in in8lalment8, further payments are subject to salisfactory progress, and th& Tru8tee8 TeseNe the
right to withdraw funding if requlfed,
The Tru$lee$ havo follow¢d the Charity Commlssion's guidance on publlc benefit throughoui the year.
The contrlbutlon of voluntsers durfng the year.
We are lucky to have a large base of volunteers induding Paul Strank Roofing Limiteds staff who glve up a lot
of time throughout the year to mak8 every event a success. Most of our volunteers have been wlth us for a
long tlme and have helped on numerous events and Include friends, family as well as councll members, MP'S,
Lords & Ladl88, buslness associates and generalty people from 811 walks of lifel
As always, we are extremely grateful to our $pon8ors, patrons, donor8 and supporter8 who make it all
possible. Some have newly come aboard. whlle others have been supporting our work since before The Paul
Slrank Charitable Trust was even fomed. but to each and every one of them we can only say a huge. hu9e
thank you.
The maln achlovements and porfomiance of tho charlty durlng the yoar.
2024 was, In many ways, a surprising success for the charity. particularly against the backdrop of ongoing
economlc uncertainty. wrth households facing increasing financial pressure and many charities seeing a dip in
donations, we were genuinely moved by the continued generosity of our supporters. The willingness of
Idividuals, local businesses, and long-standing partners to keep supporting our work despite challenglng times
was both humbling and heartening.
Thanks lo this ongoing support, we were able to raise enough over the course of the year to fund several
meaningful grants and donations to a range of causes. As in previous years. our main Charity partner, Shooting
Star Children's Hospices, continued to receive our largest all￿atiOn of support.

Trustees. Annual Report for the year ended 31 December 2024
Their work remains closely aligned wlth our charitable objectives, and we were delighted to provide them with a
combined lotsl of £53.000 raised through both our Christmas Appeal and our Annual Charity Gala. It is an honour
to be able to contribute to the vital servrces they offer to families during some of the most difficult times
imaginable.
In total, the Trust distributed £124,074 in monetary grants during 2024, enabling us to support a few worthy
causes throughout the year. Among these was our contlnued support of Stevie and her family. Having previously
provlded a specialist pushchair to aid her mobility: we w8re onc8 again pleased to be able to fund a family holiday
for Ihem. Being able to offer nol Just practical help. but also the chance for a family to create joyful memories
together. is at the heart of whal we aim to do. It Is dlfficult lo overstate Ihe impact that such a simple gift of time
and relaxation can have foi familles living with ongoing hea￿h challenges.
Beyond our main donalK•ns, we were also able to offer smaller grants and assistance to other aligned charities
and communlty-based initiatives throughout the year. These Included one-off contrlbutions and support for
causes brought to us by our network of local supporters and coMmun￿Y organi8ations, and each was assessed
and awarded in line with our charitable objectives.
Our operational costs continue to remaln extremely low. The chaiity has no staff costs and does not pay for
premises, utilities. or day-tO&day running expenses, as these are generously covered by Paul Strank Roofing
Limited. This modal •n$ures Ihat almost every penny ralsed goes directly to the people and organi8atlon8 that
need it m05t. A modest reserve is maintained solely to cover the upfront cost5 assoclated with planning and
delivering our fundraising events such as deposits for venues or marketing materials before ticket sales.

All of thls would not be possible without the Commitment of our community. partners, and donors. As always, we
remain deeply grateful for the support that makes our work posslble.

The total Charltls fund was £74145 {2023'. £87,010),
It 18 normally the policy ol the charity to keep reserve funds of around £35,000 to maintaln the charity's normal
function. However, as the maln function ol the charity is to raise funds at events and then make grants, and
as events were a challenge to host in 2024 the truslees decided that the funds would be better used making
grants to worthwhile causes and charities than Sitting in a bank account. Nevertheless, despite all the challenge8
presented the charlty managed to maintain the reserve funds more than the Ilmlt $81. We consider this is
prudent lo maintain the current functionlng of the charity.

As the charitable company's Trustees, who are also the Directors of the Company for the purposes of

Companies Act 2006. Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to b8 audited
und8r Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for indep8ndent examinalion. I report in respect of your charity's
accounts as carried out under the Charilles Act 2011 $,145 (the 2011 Act). In carrylng out my examinatlon I
have followed the Direclions given by the Charity Commission under s. 145{5> (b) of the 2011 Act.
Ba•1• of Indopondent Examlnerf• Statemont and scope of work und•rtaken
I report in respe￿ of my examlnation of the charity's financlal statements carrled out under $145 of the Acl. In
carrying out my examination, I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission
under section 145(5)(b) of the Act settlng out the dutieg of an Independent examlner in relation to the
conductlng of an independent examination. An independent examlnation indudes a review of the accounting

any unusual ilems or discbsures in the financial statements. and seeking explanatlons from you. as Truslae$,
concerning such matters. The purpose of the examlnatlon Is to establish as far as possible that there have
been no breaches of charity legislation and that, on a test basls of evidence relevant to the amounts and
disclosures made, the financial slatements comply with Ihe SORP.
The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would b8 required in an audit, and infoimation

not cover all the matters that an auditor would consider in arriving at an opinion. The planning and conduct of
an audit goes beyond the limited assurance that an independent examinatlon can provide
Consequently, I do not expre$8 an audit opinion on the vlew given by the financial Statements, and In

cause to believe that in, any materlal respect:
Accounting records were not kept in respect of the chariiy as required by Section 386 of the Companies

The financlal statements do not accord wlth those records; or
The financial statements do not comply with the applicable requirements conceming the form and

1 Accounting pollcle8
Basls of preparatlon and accountlng conventlon
The accounts have been prepared on the accruals basis, under the historical cost convention. and
in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard 102, (effective 1st January 2016) and 'FRS
102 SORP (Statement of Recommended Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities)
2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in October 2018 and applicable to all accounting
periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019), (The SORP). published by the Charty
Commission in England & Wales (CCEIN) effective January 2018, and in accordance with all
appllcable law in the charity's jurisdiclion of registration, except thal the charity has prepared th8
financial statements in accordance with the FRS 102 SORP (Statement of Recomff*nded
Practice for Accounting and Reporting by Charities) 2015, (as amended by the Bulletin issued in
October 2018 and applicable to all accounting periods beginning on or after 1st January 2019),
(The SORP), in prèfèrence to the prevtous SORP. the SORP 2005, which has been wlthdrawn,
nolwilhstanding the fact that the extant statutory regulalion5, the Charitiès {Accounts and Reports)
Regulations 2008 refer expllcitly to the SORP 2(K15. This has been done to accord with current
best practice.
Golng Concom
The charitable activities are entirely dependent on contlnuing grant aid and voluntary donations as
well as trading revenues. Therefore, the going concern basis is dependent on the futur8 flow of
these uncertain funding streams. Accordingly. the Trustees have obtained forecasts and, after
reviewing the financial forecasts for future periods lo 31 December 2023, the Truslees are
salisfied that. at the tlme of approving the fjnancial statements, It is appropriate to adopt Ihe goiThJ
concern basis In preparlng the financial statements. Other than these matters, the Trustee8 are
not aware of any materlal unc¢rtaintles about the charity's abllity to continue as a going concem.
Rl•ki and futur• a8sumptlon8
The charity Is a publlc benefit enllty.
Nature of In¢om•
Income is fecognised when the charity Is legally entitled to 11 after any performance conditions
have been mel, the amounts can be measuied rellably, and it is probable that income will be
received. Thls Includ88 income from fundraising events
Categorles of Income
Inc<)me is categorised as income from trading adivities and donations.
Income from tradlng actlvltles includes income eamed from fundraising events and trading
activities to raise funds for the charity. Income is received in exchange for supplying goods and
seniices to raise funds and is recognised when entlllement has occurred.
Income from donatlons are recognised on re￿IPt. Other donations are recognised once the
charity has been notified of the donation unless performance conditions require defeTral of the
amount. Income tax recoverable in relation to donations received under Gift Aid or deeds of
covenanl is recognised at the time of the donatlon.
15

The Paul Strank Charltable Trust
Notes to Accounts for the year ended 31 D•¢ember 2024
Income rocognilion
Income, whether from exchange or non-exchange transactions. is recognised in the statement of
financial activities (SOFA) on a receivable basis. when a transaction or other event results in an
increase in the charity's assels or a reduction in its liabilities and only when the charity has legal
entitlement. the income Is probable and can be measured reliably.
Income subject to terms and conditions which must be met before the charity is entitled to the
resources is not recognised until the conditions have been met.
All income is accounted for gross, before deducting any related fees or costs.
Rocognltlon of Ilabllltles and expendtture
A liability. and the related expenditure. is recognised when a legal or constructive obligation exists
because of a past ev8nt, and when it is more likely than not that a transfer of econom￿ beneffit8
will be required in settlement, and when the amount of the obligation can be measured or reliabty
estlmated.
Llabilities arising from future funding commitment8 and constructive obligations, including
performance related grants, where the liming or the amount of the future expendlture required to
settle the obligation are uncertain, give rise lo a provision in the accounts, which is revIev￿d at
the accounting year end. The proviston Is Increased to reflect any increases In liabilities and 18
decreased by the ulllisation of any provision within ihe period and reversed if any provision is no
longer required. These movement8 are charged or creditad to the respeclive funds and activitie8
to whSch the provision relales.
Allocatlng costs to a¢tlvltle•
Grants payable are payment8 made to Ihird parties In the furtherance of the charitable objects of
the charlty. Grants awards that are subject to the recipient fulfilling performance condilrons are
only a¢¢rued when the recipient has been notified of the grant and any remaining unfulfilled
ondrtion attachlng to that grant is outside of th& control of Ihe charity.
Expenditure Is recognised in tho period in which they are incurred. Expendlture on charitable
actlvities Include the costs of the fundiaising and the events held for the ¢ommunity and the
purpo$e of the Charlty and their associated support cost8.
Govemanc8 cosls comprise all costs involvlng the public accountability of the charity and ts
compliance with regulation and good praclice. These costs include costs related lo statutory audit
and legal fees together with an apportionment of overhead and support costs if applicable.
VoluntO0rn
In acwdance with the SORP, and in recognition of the dlfficulties in placing a monetary value on
the contribution from volunteers, the contributs'on of volunteers is not included within the income of
the charity.
However. the trustees value the significant contribution made to the activities of the Charity by
unpaid volunteers.
16

The Paul Strank Charltable Trust
Not•s to the Acmunts for the yoar ended 31 December 2024
Debtors
Debtors are measured at their recoverable amounts at the balance sheet date.
Credltors and provlslons
Basic financial liabilities. including creditors are initially recognised at Iransa¢tlon 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
dassified as payable within one year are not amortised.
Trade creditors are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the
ordinary course of operallons from suppllers. Amounts payable are classified as current liabilities If
payment Is due wrthin one year or less. If not, they are presented as non-current Ilabilities. Trade
credltors are recogni5ed initially at tran$action price and 8ubsequenlly measured at amortised eo$t
using the effective interest method.
Fund Aecountlng
Unrestricied funds are available for use al the dlscretion of the trustees in furtherance of the
general objectives of the charity.
There are no endowment fund$.
2 Llablllty to tsxatlon
The Trustees consider that the charty 8atlsfles the lests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 of the
Finance Ad 2010 for UK corporation tax purposes. Accordlngly, the Charity is potentially exempt
from taxation in respect of Income or capital gains received within categories covered by chapter 3
part 11 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010 or Sectlon 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act
1992, to the extent that such income or gains ar8 applied exclusively on the specifK chatitable
objects of the charity and for no other purpose. Value Added Tax is not recoverable by the chaiity
and is therefore included in the relevant costs in the Statement of Flnancial ActivltS8s.
3 Wlndlng up or d188olutlon of th• charlty
If upon winding up or dlssolulion of the charty there remain any assets, after the satlsfaction of all
debts and liabilities, the assets represented by the accumulated fund shall be transferred to some
Other charitable body or bodies having slmilar objects to the charity.
