THE TIGER TREE FOUNDATION

TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021

The Trustees present their annual report together with the financial statements of the Charity for the 1 January 2021 to 31 December 2021.

Objectives and activities

a. Policies and objectives

The Tiger Tree Foundation was set up to promote the advancement of disadvantaged people in the UK and abroad through opportunities for improving health, education and employment.

In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance 'Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'.

b. Activities undertaken to achieve objectives

The first project supported by The Tiger Tree Foundation was to provide funding for Grace Charitable Trust, a small charity helping to provide access to education for remote villages in a jungle area of Tamil Nadu, India. As a result of the Covid Pandemic there were no fundraising events organised this year in support of GCT.

We did have a few organised events to raise funds for Chingford Cricket Club, but these were of an ad hoc nature.

Achievements and performance

a. Main achievements of the Charity

During 2021 we were unable, due to international travel restrictions, to hold our annual visit to India for GCT (Grace Charitable Trust). We ran a smaller campaign for funding medical training for a gifted student. At the same time there was less call for support from GCT as the children were not attending school during covid so many of the normal expenses did not happen.

We also continued fundraising for Chingford Cricket Club. We explored further what would be required to improve facilities at the club and applied for planning permission to rebuild the club house. Fundraising took the form of quiz nights, BBQ’s and Golf Day competitions.

b. Review of activities

Since the charity was established, fundraising has focused on the annual visit to India and ad hoc campaigns as and when the children in India had a need. Our database of givers has remained constant but still quite small. Going forward we will need to expand the size of the database those interested in supporting CCC as the amount of funds required will be far greater.

In line with previous year’s most funds raised have been as a result of direct emails to previous donors for GCT for specific causes. For CCC most money has been raised by community initiatives like Quiz Nights and BBQs at cricket matches.

As a charity we recognise that going forward we need to pre plan fundraising events and calendar activities.

THE TIGER TREE FOUNDATION

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021

1. General information

The Tiger Tree Foundation is a registered charity in England and Wales, registration number 1181362. The principal address is 9 Montagu Mews West, London, W1H 2EE.

The charity's website is www.thetigertree.org

2. Accounting policies

2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements

The financial statements 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), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011.

The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair' view. This departure has involved following the Charities SORP (FRS 102) published in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.

The Tiger Tree Foundation 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.

2.2 Income

All income is recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably.

Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable.

2.3 Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, 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 classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity. Direct costs attributable to a single activity are allocated directly to that activity. Shared costs which contribute to more than one activity and support costs which are not attributable to a single activity are apportioned between those activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources. Central staff costs are allocated on the basis of time spent, and depreciation charges allocated on the portion of the asset’s use.

Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Charity's objectives, as well as any associated support costs.

Grants payable are charged in the year when the offer is made except in those cases where the offer is conditional, such grants being recognised as expenditure when the conditions attaching are fulfilled. Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end are noted as a commitment, but not accrued as expenditure.

All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.

2. Accounting policies (continued)

2.4 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 institution with whom the funds are deposited.

2.5 Debtors

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount after any trade discount offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due.

2.6 Cash at bank and in hand

Cash at bank and 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.

2.7 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.

2.8 Fund accounting

General funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.

Restricted funds are funds which are to be used in accordance with specific restrictions imposed by donors or which have been raised by the Charity for particular purposes. The costs of raising and administering such funds are charged against the specific fund. The aim and use of each restricted fund is set out in the notes to the financial statements.

Investment income, gains and losses are allocated to the appropriate fund.
