_The Objects of the CIO are:_
_'For the public benefit to advance the education of students and alumni of Vilniaus licėjus (Vilnius Lyceum) school including, but not limited to the awarding of scholarships, the_
_provision of maintenance allowances and grants and providing and assisting the provision of facilities for education at the school.'_
## **2.3 Trustee Selection Methods**

In accordance with the Constitution, Trustees are appointed by a resolution passed at a properly convened meeting of the charity Trustees.
In selecting the individuals for appointment as charity Trustees, the charity Trustees give regard to the skills, knowledge and experience needed for the effective administration of the CIO.
## **3 Activities & Performance**

Apart from the above scholarships, during the reporting period the charity incurred administrative expenses of £41 and foreign currency exchange loss of £417. The charity had incurred no further material expenses during the reporting period.
## **3.3 How the Public Have Benefitted**
All Trustees have read the guidance on public benefit issued by the Charity Commission and have considered this guidance when exercising any powers or duties to which the guidance was relevant.
As outlined in 4.1, scholarships were awarded with an aim to advance education and personal development of alumni of Vilniaus licėjus (Vilnius Lyceum).
## **4 Financial Review**
## **4.1 Policy on Reserves**
The VLAAUK Reserves Policy was approved by the Trustees and came into effect on 10th June 2021. The policy is being reviewed annually.
The Charity’s policy on reserves is to generate and maintain a balance which is sufficient:
- to preserve the financial viability of the Charity in the event that unforeseen and/or unavoidable circumstances precipitate a short-term fall in its income combined with emergence of unexpected expenses;
- to enable the Charity, in the interests of meeting its objectives, to undertake from time to time the setting up of new and innovative initiatives on a pilot basis to demonstrate the viability and potential benefits of such activities as a precursor to securing the external funding necessary to maintain such initiatives on an on-going basis.
For these purposes and taking into account the range and type of activities undertaken by the Charity as well as the size of Charity’s financial obligations, the Trustees will endeavour to generate and maintain reserves which are at least £500.
## **4.2 Principal Sources of Funding and Outgoings**
During the reporting period the charity raised £42,263 in unrestricted funds from voluntary receipts. Gross annual income was between £25,000 and £250,000, therefore the Charity had its annual accounts independently examined by Mr Andrius Briedis (ICAEW, ACA, membership number 3478658). The examiner’s report is attached to this annual report.
## **4.3 Remuneration of Trustees**
All Trustees act in a voluntary capacity and receive no remuneration or other material benefits from their services to the Charity.
Out-of-pocket expenses necessarily and reasonably incurred by Trustees in promoting the purposes of the Charity are reimbursed at cost. During this reporting period expenses incurred and reimbursed to Trustees were £nil.
## **4.4 Financial Status & Controls**
VLAAUK does not have any material governance/administrative costs or other financial obligations. Scholarships awarded by the Charity are fully pre-funded by unrestricted funds
_Page 5 of 6_
accumulated up to the date at which the commitment to award scholarships is made. As such, Charity’s resources from unrestricted resources are sufficient to meet its outgoings.
## **4.5 Statutory Statements on Liabilities**
The Trustees declare that:
- ✔ The charity has given no guarantees where potential liability under the guarantee is outstanding at the date of this statement;
- ✔ The charity has no debt outstanding at the date of this statement which is owed by the CIO and which is secured by an express charge on any assets of the CIO;
Approved by the Trustees and signed on their behalf,
Domantas Jankauskas
The Chair of the Board of Trustees
