THE SYDNEY AND SHEILA McGHEE CHARITABLE TRUST
TRUSTEES’ REPORT
The trustees present their report and accounts for the year ended 5 April 2022.
Principal activity and status
The trust is a non-profit seeking charitable organisation whose principal activity during the year was to provide financial support for charities and charitable purposes.
Trustees’ responsibilities for preparing the accounts
Trust law requires the trustees to prepare accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the trust and of the profit or loss of the trust for that period. In preparing those accounts, the trustees are required to
-
~ select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
~ make judgments and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
~ prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the trust will continue in business.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the trust and to enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with relevant legislation. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the trust and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
Trustees
The trustees who served during the year were:
G L Bond M R Spratt

Public benefit statement
The trustees have considered the general guidance on public benefit issued by the Charity Commission in carrying out its objectives and activities and are satisfied the trust is compliant with its constitution and the provisions of the Charities Act 2011.
Reserves policy and risk management
The trustees have formulated policies to ensure that the trust maintains adequate reserves to finance its operations. Risk management procedures are in place to help safeguard the on-going viability of the trust and to protect its assets.

THE SYDNEY AND SHEILA McGHEE CHARITABLE TRUST
REPORT OF THE INDEPENDENT EXAMINER TO THE TRUSTEES
We report on the accounts of The Sydney and Sheila McGhee Charitable Trust for the year ended 5 April 2022 which are set out on pages 4 to 7.
Respective responsibilities of trustees
As the trustees you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The trustees consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 (the Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
It is our responsibility to:
-
examine the accounts under section 145 of the Act;
-
to follow the procedures laid down in General Directors given by the Charity Commission (under section 145(5)(b) of the Act); and
-
to state whether particular matters have come to our attention.
Basis of independent examiner’s report
Our 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 charity 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 directors 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 ‘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 our examination, no matter has come to our attention
-
i. which gives us reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements
-
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the Act; and
-
to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the Act have not been met; or
-
ii. to which, in our opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
