## Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2023 

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2023. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019). 

## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT Governing document** 

Nottinghamshire Historic Churches Trust was constituted as an unincorporated charity under a trust deed dated 31 December 1986. 

On 1 April 2018 the activities, assets and liabilities of the charity were transferred to a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (“CIO”) also known as Nottinghamshire Historic Church’s Trust which had been incorporated on 15 February 2017. 

The constitution of the new charity reflected in substance the constitution of the unincorporated charity and gives responsibility for the management of the Trust trustees, being a number between four and twenty five. 

## **Appointment of trustees** 

New trustees are appointed by the existing trustees. The trustees consult widely with appropriate bodies before issuing invitations to future trustees. Trustees serve for five years after which time they are eligible for reappointment. 

## **Organisational structure** 

Meetings of the trustees are held four times a year. At these meetings the trustees approve grant applications. They are assisted by a Grants Committee which meets quarterly and considers applications for grants and makes recommendations to the trustees. Sub-committee are appointed to deal with social functions and other matters as needed. 

## **Consideration of major risks** 

It is the Trust's policy to make grants only if it has the money in hand. It does not consider, therefore, that it is exposed to major risks which might arise as a result of a reduction in donations or a fall in interest and dividends. 

Recent events have demonstrated that all organisations are exposed to serious risks arising from factors outside their control.  The trustees monitor such risks but consider that the charity has sufficient liquid resources to meet its actual and potential liabilities. 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES** 

## **Objects** 

The preservation, repair, maintenance, improvement, beautification and reconstruction of churches or chapels in the City and County of Nottingham and any other churches in the Diocese of Southwell and Nottingham, and of monuments, fittings, stained glass, bells, clocks etc. in such churches. 

## **Activities** 

The Trust carried out its objects by making grants for the repair and maintenance of churches to those bodies responsible for their upkeep.  The trustees confirm that they have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit. Buildings for which grants are made must be in use for public worship by a Christian denomination and the trustees consider that, since public access to the buildings that it assists is freely available, it complies with the guidance on public benefit. 

The Trust's income is derived from fund raising activities and donations from the public and other trusts and institutions.

## Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2023 

## **OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES – continued** 

## **Policy on grant making** 

The Trust will consider applications for buildings which are used for public Christian worship provided that they are older than 30 years. Grants normally cover only a proportion of the total cost of repairs.  Grant-aid is intended to assist in the sympathetic repair of historic churches and chapels and their fittings and will normally not be made for works of modernisation, alteration or improvement. The Trust expects that competent professional advice will be sought by the applicant. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

It is the policy of the Trust over the course of the next few years to make grants that are in excess of income in order to reduce the level of our reserves.  The general level of grant made is fixed by reference to anticipated demand and this varies over the year and from year to year. 

## **ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE** 

## **Grants made** 

Grants awarded during the period totalled £61,850 (2022: £51,000). Grants no longer needed and withdrawn totalled £12,200 (2022: £5,500).  Full details of the recipient churches and a description of the way that the grants have been used can be found on our website. 

## **FUND RAISING** 

## **Donations** 

The Trust expresses its gratitude to all individuals and Charitable Trusts who have donated to the Trust. Details of donors are shown in Note 2 to the financial statements.  Total donations received in the year were £25,830.  Donations in 2022 totalled £32,268. 

## **Ride and Stride** 

The sponsorship income this period was £17,508 (2022: £17,744) of which £8,088 (2022: £9,537) was returned to participating churches. 

This represented a great success in the very difficult circumstances which prevailed. 

## **Autumn Party** 

An Autumn party was held at Southwell Minster.  This proved to be very successful and generated net income for the trust of £612. 

## **Friends** 

The Friends number 123, including 13 life members, 2 honorary members. 

Only 1 Friends visit was possible during the year; a very successful visit to Wellow and New Ollerton. 

## **Publicity** 

This period the Trust has issued two Newsletters. Our thanks to the editor, Andrew Paris, and to others who have contributed. This is a much appreciated addition to our efforts to make the work of the Trust more widely known. 

We also thank Andy Nicholson who continues to care for the Trust's website and extend its use.

Report of the Trustees for the Year Ended 31 March 2023 

## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** 

## **Income** 

The income for the year after deducting the cost of fund-raising activities was £19,347 (2022: £37,025). This figure is after allowing for repayment of £13,900 in respect of the grant received from All Churches Trust in 2019. This is explained in note 2 to the financial statements. 

Donations in the period were £25,830 (2022: £32,268) of which £25,555 (2022: £28,050) came from other trusts and charities. 

Activities for generating funds raised £11,653 (2022: £10,416) with the Ride and Stride being the main contributor. (See Note 3 and 5 for details). 

Investment income was £3,416 (2022: £1,541). 

The annual revaluation of the quoted investments owned by the Trust resulted in a surplus of £845 (2022 : £2,430). 

## **Expenditure** 

The expenditure of the Trust, excluding grants, was £16,058 (2022: £15,134). 

Expenses associated with generating income were £9,767 (2022: £8,868). 

## **Grants** 

The grants that we make for the repair and maintenance of churches form the largest part of our expenditure. In the period to 31 March 2023 this was £49,650 (2022: £45,500).  This figure depends on the applications that we receive rather than the availability of funds. 

## **Reserves** 

The charity’s reserves decreased by £35,902 (2022 decrease of £12,492). 

The trustees continue to review the charity’s reserves policy. The trustees recognise that the charity needs to maintain adequate reserves to ensure continuity of the charity’s activities and to ensure that the charity is able to meet any contingencies that may arise. However, the trustees are mindful of the necessity of ensuring that charitable donations and other income are applied for their intended purpose 

## **PLANS FOR THE FUTURE** 

The trustees’ plans for the future development of the charity are as follows: 

1. Publicity. To increase awareness of the charity and of its work 

2. Generating funds. To attempt to increase funds generated by the trust in order to further the objectives of the charity. 

3. Providing financial assistance to places of worship. To continue to provide financial assistance to places of worship in Nottinghamshire.

Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 March 2023 

## **1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES** 

## **Basis of preparing the financial statements** 

The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) 'Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investments which are included at market value, as modified by the revaluation of certain assets. 

## **Going concern** 

The financial statements have been prepared on the going concern basis. The trustees consider that there are no material threats to the ability of the charity to continue to operate for the foreseeable future. 

## **Income** 

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

## **Expenditure** 

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. 

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

## **Taxation** 

The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities. 

## **Fund accounting** 

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees. 

Restricted funds 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 particular restricted purposes. 

Further explanation of the nature and purpose of each fund is included in the notes to the financial statements. 

The notes form part of these financial statements

In March 2019 the Trust received a grant allocation of £39,000 from the All Churches Trust (now the Benefact Trust).  The objective of the grant was to allow the Trust to distribute funds to churches in Nottinghamshire to help them to install roof alarms and so to deter the theft of lead from their roofs. 

During the year ended 31 March 2022 and 31 March 2023 a number of churches have contacted the Trust to decline the offer of grants previously made to them.  After allowing for these “withdrawn grants” the Trust has distributed grants totalling £25,100.  The balance of the grant has been or will be returned to the Benefact Trust.
