CHAIRMAN'S REPORT FOR THE PERIOD 1 AUGUST 2021 TO 31 MARCH 2022
It made sense, for future administrative ease, to rearrange our accounting period to end in March each year. For this reason, these accounts cover just 7 months from August 2021 to March 2022. In those 7 months, we have continued most effectively to maintain and grow the help we have been able to give those who help others.
In a completely cost-effective manner, we have given, or have committed to give, over 40 grants expending around £75,000, exceeding our investment income of about £62,000. With donations more than bridging the gap and with income holding up, we can look back with a great deal of satisfaction at the worthwhile assistance we have able to pass on to a wide variety of excellent causes, all of which should benefit our community against the backdrop of growing economic uncertainty and pressure.
I refer to the list of those we have helped, which embraces a kaleidoscope of activities, ranging from village halls, music, nurseries, respite care, debt counselling, physical and mental disabilities, sport, scouts, to name just a few. Our beneficiaries report back to us and in some cases request continued funding and we are happy to monitor and respond to need as it arises.
At the moment, our guideline maximum grant is £3000, but this is something which will be kept under review and we can respond to specific needs in a flexible and sensible manner.
It is good to see that our investments at the end of March were standing in value above the pre-Covid cost, but that does reflect changeable market sentiment. The income flow is the means of providing the help we can, and we believe that our assets are well placed to provide that, and to give us a long-term hedge against the inflation rate which is showing a concerning trend.
My thanks to my co-trustees, all of whom provide valuable input, and to Sue Hawes, our secretary who does an amazing job backed, with many years of experience in the world of charity.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE TUDWICK FOUNDATION
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The Tudwick Foundation
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of The Tudwick Foundation (the Trust) for the period 1 August 2021 to 31 March 2022.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').
I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or 2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts 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 accounts to be reached.

Income

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.
