## **Grant making policy :** 

The capital and income of the Trust is to provide only for the assistance or provision of funds as detailed in the deed dated 24 January 2017. 

## **Financial review and investment policy :** 

There are no restrictions on the charity’s power to invest.  The investment strategy is set by the trustees for a period of five years and takes account of demand for funds.  The trustees consider the income requirements, the risk profile and the investment manager’s view of the market prospects in the medium term.  This strategy is set within an overall policy which states that the fund is to be invested in moderate risk investments with a view to ensuring that capital appreciation of the fund exceeds inflation over each five year period.  The funds may be invested in any type of investment.  Our strategy is reviewed with our investment managers annually. 

This is the eighth year of The Gregson Family Foundation.  During the year incoming resources totalled £113,563 (2024: £110,998) resources expended totalled £57,369 (2024: £68,812) and there were other recognised gains of £109,956 (2024: £96,206).  As a result the fund balance carried forward at 31 December 2025 was £1,549,394 (2024: £1,383,244). 

The Trustees confirm that they did not receive any remuneration during the year, nor were they reimbursed for any expenses. 

## **Reserves policy :** 

It is the policy of the charity to maintain unrestricted funds, which are the free reserves of the charity, at a level which equates to approximately six months expenditure, totaling £28,500.   This provides sufficient funds to cover management and administration and support costs and to respond to emergency applications for grants which may arise.  Unrestricted funds were maintained at this level throughout the year. 

## **Risk management :** 

The trustees have examined the major strategic, business and operational risks which the charity faces and confirm that systems have been established to enable regular reports to be produced so that the necessary steps can be taken to lessen these risks. 

## **Trustees’ responsibilities in relation to the financial statements :** 

Law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the charity’s financial activities during the year and of its financial position at the end of the year.  In preparing those financial statements, the trustees are required to: 

1. select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

2. observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP; 

3. state whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and 

4. prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business. 

The trustees are responsible for keeping accounting records which 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.  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 Trustees confirm that the accounts comply with the governing document.

## **THE GREGSON FAMILY FOUNDATION** 

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT** 

## **TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE GREGSON FAMILY FOUNDATION** 

I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of The Gregson Family Foundation (the ‘charity’) for the year ended 31 December 2025. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the trustees of the charity you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act). 

I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s financial statements carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act. In carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act. 

## **Independent examiner's statement** 

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no 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 charity as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or 

- 2 the financial statements do not accord with those records; or 

- 3 the financial statements 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 financial statements to be reached.

## **THE GREGSON FAMILY FOUNDATION** 

## **REGISTERED CHARITY NO.  1171351** 

## **Notes to the Accounts for the year ended 31 December 2025** 

## **1 ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

The Gregson Family Foundation is an unincorporated charity, registered with the Charity Commission number 1171351.  The registered address is 

Riverside East, 2 Millsands, Sheffield, S3 8DT 

## **1.1 ACCOUNTING CONVENTION** 

These accounts have been prepared in accordance with the charity’s memorandum and articles of association, the Charity’s Act 2011 and “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” the Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice as it applies from 1 January 2019.  The charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102. 

The charity has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows. 

The accounts are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. 

The accounts have been prepared on the historical cost convention modified for the revaluation of investments.  The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below. 

## **1.2 GOING CONCERN** 

At the time of approving the accounts, the trustees have reasonable expectation that the charity has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.  Thus the trustees’ continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparation of the accounts. 

## **1.3 CHARITABLE FUNDS & FUND ACCOUNTING** 

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives unless the funds have been designated for other purposes. 

Restricted funds are subject to specific conditions by donors as to how they may be used.  The purposes and uses of the restricted funds are set out in the notes to the accounts. 

## **1.4 INCOMING RESOURCES** 

Incoming resources includes investment income, which is recognised when the charity has a legal right to the income. 

The gain or loss arising on the disposal of an asset is determined as the difference between the sale proceeds and the carrying value of the asset, and is recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year. 

Donations received by the charity are accounted for as and when they are received. 



**Page 8** 

## **1.5 GRANTS PAYABLE** 

Grants payable are debited to expenditure within the Statement of Financial Activities in the period to which they relate.  Where a grant commitment is payable over a period of more than one year, a liability is recognised for the full amount of the constructive obligation unless conditions are attached to future payments such that the trustees effectively retain the discretion to avoid making such payments. 

## **1.6 INVESTMENTS AND INVESTMENT INCOME** 

All investments are stated at fair value and the movement shown comprises both realised and unrealised gains and losses. 

Realised gains or losses arising on the disposal of investments (together with provisions for diminution in value), are credited or debited to the Statement of Financial Activities, and subsequently transferred to Unrestricted Funds. 

## **1.7 CHARITABLE ACTIVITIES** 

The cost of charitable activities consists of grants made. 

## **1.8 COST OF GENERATING FUNDS** 

The cost of generating funds consists of investment management fees. 

## **1.9 GOVERNANCE COSTS** 

Governance costs comprise all costs involving the public accountability of the charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice.  These costs include costs related to statutory independent examination and legal fees together with other overhead and support costs. 

## **1.10 CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS** 

Cash and cash equivalents include deposits held at call with banks. 

## **1.11 FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS** 

The charity has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 “Basic Financial Instruments” and section 12 “Other Financial Instruments Issues” of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments. 

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously. 

## **Basic financial assets** 

Basic financial assets, which includes debtors and cash and bank balances, are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs and are subsequently carried at amortised cost using the effective interest method unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the transaction is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest.  Financial assets classified as receivable within one year are not amortised. 



## **Page 9** 

## **Impairment of financial assets** 

Financial assets, other than those held at fair value through income and expenditure, are assessed for indicators of impairment at each reporting date.  Financial assets are impaired where there is objective evidence that, as a result one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows have been affected. 

If an asset is impaired, the impairment loss is the difference between the carrying amount and the present value of the estimated cash flows discounted at the asset’s original effective interest rate.  The impairment loss is recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year. 

If there is a decrease in the impairment loss arising from an event occurring after the impairment was recognised, the impairment is reversed.  The reversal is such that the current carrying amount does not exceed what the carrying amount would have been, had the impairment previously been recognised.  The impairment reversal is recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year. 

## **Basic financial liabilities** 

Basic financial liabilities, including trade and other payables, are initially recognised at transaction price unless the arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, where the debt instrument is measured at the present value of the future receipts discounted at a market rate of interest.  Debt instruments are subsequently carried at amortised cost, using the effective interest rate method. 

Trade payables are obligations to pay for goods or services that have been acquired in the ordinary course of operations from suppliers.  Accounts payable are classed as current liabilities if payment is due within one year or less.  If not, they are presented as non-current liabilities.  Trade payables are recognised initially at transaction price and subsequently measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method. 

## **Derecognition of financial liabilities** 

Financial liabilities are derecognised when the charity’s contractual obligations expire or are discharged or cancelled. 

## **2.  CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES AND JUDGEMENTS** 

In the application of the charity’s accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.  The estimates and associated assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant.  Actual results may differ from these estimates. 

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis.  Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.
