Trustees' Report

Year ended 31 March 2024

The Trustees present their Report and Accounts for the year ended 31 March 2024.

The Accounts have been prepared on a receipts and payments basis in accordance with the Charity's Trust Deed, the Charities Act 2011 and applicable law.

Objectives and Activities for the Public Benefit

The objects of the Charity allow the Trustees discretion to apply the income and capital of the Charity for such charitable purposes as they from time to time decide. The Trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the Charity's aims and objectives and in planning future activities and setting the donations policy for the period.

Funds will be used to further the Foundation's aims of promoting the advancement of children's education and wellbeing within the Brighton area and the rest of the UK.

Achievements and Performance

The Foundation provide a set monthly donation to Time 4 Children a UK registered charity (1111837). In 2023 A donation was also made to UK registered charity, Sussex Nightstop Plus Limited (1132386).

Financial Review

During the year the Trustees made donations totalling £18,000 (2023: £33,000). Income of £6,329 (2023: nil) relating to gift-aid on the prior year donations of £25,000 was received. No further income was received during the year.

Free reserves at the year end totalled £20,959 (2023: £33,440).

It is the aim of the Trustees to maintain readily accessible cash funds sufficient to fund anticipated charitable donations and administration costs over the coming year. In line with the Trustees' risk policy this will be maintained within bank accounts at present due to the low level of risk free investment that could be achieved.

The Trustees aim to maintain reserves to meet their annual costs whilst distributing available income arising, after expenses, to charitable organisations at their discretion and as such reserves are not set at a specific level but will be reviewed by the Trustees on a rolling basis. The Trustees aim to provide donations to a few charities at larger amounts rather than many at smaller amounts and these will be decided by the Trustees on an annual basis.
