Appointment of trustees is governed by the trust deed. The Board of Trustees is authorised to appoint new trustees to fill vacancies arising through resignation or death of an existing trustee.
The charity's limited scale of operations means that there is no formal organisational structure. Training is and will continue to be provided as and when trustees are inducted.
Investment Powers
The trust deed authorises the trustees to make and hold investments using the general funds of the trust.
Structure, governance and management
The Manson Family Charitable Trust is registered as a charity on 24 August 2016 (Registered number 116888) and is governed in accordance with its trust deed dated 01 September 2015 and the requirements of the Charities Commission and best practice guidelines.
The management, operation and governance of the charity are the responsibility of the Trustees, appointed under the terms of the trust deed. They meet regularly and a Chairman has been appointed. All trustees give of their time freely and are unremunerated, and cover their own expenses. There are currently five trustees including the Chairman.
All trustees have been made aware of their responsibilities and operate under the best practice code as recommended by the Charities commission.
The trustees have ensured that they have complied with section 17 of the Charities act 2011 with due regard to public benefit and are happy that they are continuing to provide Charitable services to the community.
We would like to acknowledge and thank Jonathan Manson who created this charity through his generosity and vision. Jonathan has been involved with various charities over the years and felt he would like to create a means to help people in need more directly, and without the cost that by necessity larger charities often incur.
He is also keen to help young people where particular medical or education support might be necessary as well as general health, religious and social well being organisations.
Having established this charitable trust in September 2015, he appointed us as Trustees and guided us as to how he would most like his funds used. He provided initial funding of £1,938,262 in 2017 via gift of shares.

In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to:
(a) select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently;
(b) observe the methods and principles of the Charities SORP (FRS 102);
- (c) make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
(d) state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements;
(e) prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at anytime 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 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.

THE MANSON FAMILY CHARITABLE TRUST
Charity Number: 1168888 INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE MANSON FAMILY CHARITABLE TRUST
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2024
The trustees present their report together with the financial statements of the trust for the year ended 31 December 2024. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out on page 5 and comply with the trust deed and applicable law.
Respective responsibilities of trustees and examiner
The trustees of the trust are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required this year under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
Having satisfied myself that the trust is not subject to audit and is eligible for independent examination, it is my responsibility to:
- examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act;
• follow the procedures laid down in the General Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act; and • state whether particular matters have come to my attention.
Basis of independent examiner's report
My examination was carried out in accordance with the General Directions given by the Charity Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the trust and a comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any unusual items or disclosures in the accounts, and seeking explanations from you as trustees concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that would be required in an audit, and consequently, no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a "true and fair view" and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent Examiner's Statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
1) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements: - to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and - to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act and with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities have not been met; or
2) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

| 1 | Accounting policies |
|---|---|
| a) | Basis of preparation |
| The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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) - (Charities SORP FRS 102). | |
| The charity meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or | |
| transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy or note. | |
| b) | General information |
| The Manson Family Charitable Trust is a registered charity ( charity number: 1168888).The principal place of business is: 4 Parklands, Whitefield, | |
| Manchester, M45 7WY. | |
| c) | Going concern |
| The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. The trustees do not | |
| consider that there are any sources of estimation uncertainty at the reporting date that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to | |
| the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next reporting period. | |
| d) | Income |
| Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the income have been met, it is | |
| probable that the income will be received and that the amount can be measured reliably. | |
| Income from government and other grants, whether ‘capital’ grants or ‘revenue’ grants, is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the | |
| funds, any performance conditions attached to the grants have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be | |
| measured reliably and is not deferred. Income received in advance for the provision of specified service is deferred until the criteria for income | |
| recognition are met. | |
| For legacies, entitlement is taken as the earlier of the date on which either: the charity is aware that probate has been granted, the estate has | |
| been finalised and notification has been made by the executor(s) to the charity that a distribution will be made, or when a distribution is received | |
| from the estate. Receipt of a legacy, in whole or in part, is only considered probable when the amount can be measured reliably and the charity | |
| has been notified of the executor’s intention to make a distribution. Where legacies have been notified to the charity, or the charity is aware of the | |
| granting of probate, and the criteria for income recognition have not been met, then the legacy is a treated as a contingent asset and disclosed if | |
| material. | |
| e) | Donations of gifts, services and facilities |
| Donated professional services and donated facilities are recognised as income when the charity has control over the item or received the service, | |
| any conditions associated with the donation have been met, the receipt of economic benefit from the use by the charity of the item is probable and | |
| that economic benefit can be measured reliably. In accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102), volunteer time is not recognised so refer to | |
| the trustees’ annual report for more information about their contribution. |
On receipt, donated gifts, professional services and donated facilities are recognised on the basis of the value of the gift to the charity which is the amount the charity would have been willing to pay to obtain services or facilities of equivalent economic benefit on the open market; a corresponding amount is then recognised in expenditure in the period of receipt. f) Interest receivable Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank. g) Fund accounting Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of charity. Designated funds are unrestricted funds of the charity which the trustees have decided at their discretion to set aside to use for a specific purpose. Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the charity’s work or for specific projects being undertaken by the charity.

| 1 | Accounting policies (continued) |
|---|---|
| h) | Expenditure and irrecoverable VAT |
| Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make a payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be | |
| required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified under the following activity headings: | |
| ● Costs of raising funds comprise of trading costs and the costs incurred by the charitable company in inducing third |
|
| parties to make voluntary contributions to it, as well as the cost of any activities with a fundraising purpose. | |
| ● Expenditure on charitable activities includes the costs of delivering services, exhibitions and other educational activities |
|
| undertaken to further the purposes of the charity and their associated support costs. | |
| ● Other expenditure represents those items not falling into any other heading. |
|
| Irrecoverable VAT is charged as a cost against the activity for which the expenditure was incurred. | |
| i) | Allocation of support costs |
| Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Support costs include back | |
| office costs, finance, personnel, payroll and governance costs which support the Trusts programmes and activities. These costs have been | |
| allocated between cost of raising funds and expenditure on charitable activities. The bases on which support costs have been allocated are set | |
| out in note 4. | |
| j) | Operating leases |
| Rental charges are charged on a straight line basis over the term of the lease. | |
| k) | Listed 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. Any change in fair value will be recognised in the statement of financial | |
| activities. | |
| l) | Debtors |
| Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount | |
| prepaid net of any trade discounts due. | |
| m) | Cash at bank and in hand |
| Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date | |
| of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account. | |
| n) | Creditors and provisions |
| Creditors and provisions are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the | |
| transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors and provisions are | |
| normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. |
o) Financial instruments The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value with the exception of bank loans which are subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
