ANNUAL REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
2. STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
The Foundation is a charitable incorporated organisation governed by its Constitution dated 8 November 2019 and is registered as a charity with the Charity Commission for England and Wales.
The Trustees are resident in the United Kingdom and meet regularly to discuss and develop the Foundation’s goals and strategy and to review grant proposals and general grant requests.
The number of Trustees shall be a minimum of three and a maximum of six at any one time and new Trustees shall be appointed by ordinary resolution by the existing Trustees. The range of skills represented on the Trustee Board will be kept under review as the Foundation develops over time.
The Trustees delegate the day to day running of the Foundation to Rawlinson & Hunter LLP.
Induction and Training
As part of their training, Trustees are given an information pack which includes the Foundation's Constitution and the Charity Commission guidance on Trustees' Responsibilities. All Trustees are aware of their legal duties and obligations in respect of the management of the Foundation, including in relation to the protection of its assets.
Statement of Trustees’ Responsibilities
The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Annual Report of the Trustees and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Foundation and of the incoming resources and application of resources, including the income and expenditure of the Foundation for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP 2019 (FRS 102);
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and
-
prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Foundation will continue in operation.
The Trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Foundation and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the Foundation’s Constitution. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the Foundation and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The Trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the Foundation’s website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.

FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
2. STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT (continued)
Internal Controls
The Trustees have overall responsibility for ensuring that the Foundation has appropriate systems of internal controls. They are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Foundation and enable them to ensure that the financial statements follow best practice and all applicable law, regulation and guidance. The Trustees are also responsible for the Foundation safeguarding it’s assets and for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The system of internal controls is designed to provide reasonable, but not absolute, assurance against material misstatement or loss.
Risk Management & Corporate Governance
A risk assessment has been undertaken which comprises:
-
An annual review of the risks the Foundation may face;
-
The establishment of systems and procedures to mitigate those risks; and
-
The implementation of procedures designed to minimise any potential impact on the Foundation should those risks materialise.
This continuing process will identify risk areas to which the Foundation is vulnerable and highlight any necessary safeguards that will need to be put in place. No major risks were identified at the date of these financial statements.
The Trustees have signed fit and proper declarations in line with HMRC guidance.
In addition, the Trustees have taken due consideration of Good Governance – A Code for the Voluntary and Community Sector, ensuring that the seven main principles of the Code are adhered to. These are:
-
Organisational purpose;
-
Leadership;
-
Integrity;
-
Decision-making, risk and control;
-
Board effectiveness;
-
Equality, diversity and inclusion; and
-
Openness and accessibility.
The Trustees recognise that good governance plays an essential part in securing the future of the Foundation and confirm that the said main principles of the Code are followed by them in leading, directing and managing the Foundation.
No Trustee received any remuneration during the year ended 31 December 2021.
The Foundation does not carry out fundraising activities.

3. OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES FOR THE PUBLIC BENEFIT
The objects of the Foundation are restricted specifically to the application of CIO funds, at such time or times and in such manner, for the public benefit, as the Foundation Trustees may in their discretion think fit for any exclusively charitable purposes in any part of the world. The Foundation operates as a grant-making charity, supporting charitable projects and organisations with grants of varying sizes and durations.
The Trustees have defined a programme of grant-making to charities. For the foreseeable future, the Foundation’s primary focus will be to:
-
prevent or relieve poverty worldwide for individuals in need;
-
advance the health and wellbeing of the general public (including preventing or relieving sickness, disease or suffering, as well as the promotion of good health);
-
support programmes which promote and advance the education of the general public; and
-
promote and support Christianity for the benefit of the general public.
The Trustees have pursued a broad strategy of ensuring proper due diligence in the assessment of potential grants and ensuring that grants are made subject to appropriate terms and conditions.
Statement of Public Benefit
As a grant-funder, the Foundation’s activities will provide public benefit to the individuals and communities who are beneficiaries of the Foundation’s funded projects. The Foundation’s public benefit is not limited with reference to geography, by the charging of fees or otherwise. The Trustees are aware of the Charity Commission guidance on Public Benefit and confirm that they have complied with the duty in Section 4 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to it. They consider the information which follows in this annual report, about the Foundation’s aims, activities and achievements in the areas of interest that the Foundation supports, demonstrates the benefit to its beneficiaries and through them to the public, that arise from those activities.
Grant Making Policies
The Trustees’ grant making policy has been to generally consider making donations by way of direct funding and also by way of grants to charitable organisations recognised as such in their respective jurisdictions for projects that are exclusively charitable under English law. The Foundation has begun to put in place sound grant arrangements so that it can properly select appropriate grantees and impose prudent terms on grants, including, as appropriate, monitoring and evaluation of the way in which funds are applied by grantees.

4. ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE
Charitable Activities
The Foundation was established in late 2019 and these financial statements show the activities up to 31 December 2021.
The Foundation has continued to work in a world still dealing with a pandemic and the fall out of that pandemic globally.
As in 2020 the Trustees continued to ensure that in challenging circumstances the needs of those severely impacted were met where possible.
Whilst, of the donations received, 69% were distributed in the year (98% 2020) this is simply a product of the commitments the Foundation has beyond the year end which are clearly laid out in note 7 of the financial statements.
In the Foundation objects are four key pillars. Poverty, Health and Wellbeing, Education and Christianity, nothing has changed here.
Poverty
This accounted for £508,407 in donations, as well as larger donations to Shelter and CRISIS of £100,000 the Trustees have made numerous smaller grants which have a great impact on local communities.
Health and Wellbeing
Whilst the donations this year were only around 25% rather than 50% in 2020 it should be noted that certain donations made in 2020, such as the one to Dogs for Good, would continue to give benefits well beyond the year of the donation. In total £584,805 was donated to this category in 2021.
Education
Only two donations totalling £1,120,000 were made in this area in 2021 but they made up a significant portion of the £2,642,348 total. They included the largest grant of £1,100,000 to Toy Like Me which warrants a longer explanation in this report.
Toy Like Me is a registered arts and play non-profit community interest company based in Norwich and York.
Founded in 2015, Toy Like Me started playful conversations with children about disability to boost self-esteem and grow open minds. They create artwork and public facing exhibitions, educate through schools workshops and resources and influence the global toy and children’s TV industries to better represent 150 million disabled children worldwide in their products and productions.
In 2021 the Hollyhock Foundation agreed a restricted grant of £1.1m to Toy Like Me CIC to support the production of a new pre-school animation series, MixMups, which has been devised and created by Toy Like Me co-founder, Rebecca Atkinson.

ANNUAL REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
4. ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE (continued)
MixMups has been commissioned by Channel 5 in the UK and will launch in autumn 2023. The series comprises of 52 x 10 minute episodes. It will become the first disabled created and led preschool brand to feature two lead disabled characters and provide unprecedented access for disabled audiences through innovative object-based technology, allowing a new form of bespoke online viewing for disabled children.
This restricted grant has been made to Toy Like Me CIC which will use the funds as a loan into MixMups Entertainment Ltd to help fund the production costs of the show and achieve their nonprofit objective of better representation of disability on screen for children.
In exchange for the loan, Toy Like Me will receive a 16% share in MixMups Entertainment Ltd and stand in a position to recoup the loan so that the Hollyhock Charitable Foundation’s donation can continue to serve disabled children in the non-profit sector in perpetuity.
As of writing, none of the £1.1 million has been disbursed but Mixmups is still on target for its launch date in 2023.
Christianity
This benefited with donations of £429,136. This included a donation to New Gate Peace Foundation of £367,728 which is a non-profit organization based in the USA and its purpose is to allow fundraising to be achieved to fund apostolic works by the Legionaries of Christ in Holy Land such as Magdala.
The Magdala project is a unique project which started in 2005 in a property by the sea of Galilee with the aim of establishing a modern-day retreat and pilgrimage center. In 2009 the discovery of the ruins of a first century synagogue, a town, marketplace and a unique housing complex with four fresh mikvaot never before seen in the Holy Land, made Magdala an important area of world reference.
In 2014, the Magdala Archaeological Park and the Duc In Altum church were officially inaugurated and opened to pilgrims and visitors. Later in November 2019, the Magdala Hotel with 156 rooms was opened. All the projects have been funded by donations and so are the new projects such as the Visitor Centre and other programs which will benefit the development of Magdala as one of the main reference sites for Jewish and Christian visitors and pilgrims. One of these new projects is the building of a main restaurant.
The restaurant’s mission is to serve visitors and pilgrims with quality food and offer a space with a view to the Sea of Galilee. Magdala estimates that it will receive one million pilgrims annually by 2025, and the restaurant will become the project’s second largest source of income.
One of our trustees had the opportunity to travel to Magdala in early 2022 and see the area and the restaurant. The construction had been temporarily halted for a period during the pandemic and, subsequently, for the implementation of new regulations and permit requirements for the project, but will now resume in September 2022.
The donation of £367,728 and the additional contingent commitment (see note 8) of US$1,000,000 is to facilitate the building of the restaurant.
Overall
The Trustees have continued to match larger global and national charities with smaller local charities, allowing greater balance in its “giving” policy and they will continue to make efforts through 2022 and beyond to develop that.

5. FINANCIAL REVIEW
The Statement of Financial Activities on page 11 shows total incoming resources for the period of £3,850,000 (2020: £2,410,643). There was no expenditure on raising funds and grant expenditure amounted to £2,642,348 (2020: £2,327,632). Governance costs amounted to £25,560 (2020: £31,798) and are included within charitable activities.
The principal funding for the Foundation came by way of voluntary donations from an unconnected third party and there were no restrictions attached to these. The funding has allowed the Foundation to operate and award 29 grants to 26 organisations totalling £2,642,348 (2020: £2,327,632) which has in turn benefitted countless thousands.
The balance of reserves at 31 December 2021 is £1,240,377 (2020: £58,715) and all funds are unrestricted.
Reserves Policy
The Trustees have examined the Foundation’s requirement for resources in light of the main risks to the organisation and have no outstanding commitments or cash demands which are not adequately covered by existing resources. The net assets of the Foundation are regarded as free reserves and the funds at 31 December 2021 will be retained to make grants in accordance with the Foundation’s charitable objects and policies. The Trustees consider that the freely expendable funds are appropriate and adequate taking into account plans for grants to be awarded in future and have at present therefore not designated any specific reserves. However, the Trustees will keep this under constant review. In future years, a specific reserves policy may be required.
The Covid-19 pandemic and the ongoing Ukraine conflict (which is a post year end event) have created operational and financial pressures for most organisations. The Trustees have considered the contingency plans in place, the level of funds held, the expected level of income and expenditure and cash flow forecasts for 12 months from authorising these financial statements and believe that no material uncertainties exist. The Trustees consider the adoption of the going concern basis in preparing these financial statements is appropriate.
6. PLANS FOR THE FUTURE
The Trustees do not propose to deviate from the current objectives and activities of the Foundation as detailed in Section 3 of this report but will further develop and refine their strategies, policies and procedures in future.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
TO THE TRUSTEES OF
HOLLYHOCK CHARITABLE FOUNDATION
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of the Hollyhock Charitable Foundation (the ‘Foundation’ or ‘the CIO’) for the year ended 31 December 2021 which comprise the statement of financial activities, the balance sheet and the notes to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
In our opinion the financial statements:
-
give a true and fair view of the state of the Foundation’s affairs as at 31 December 2021 and of its incoming resources and application of resources, for the year then ended;
-
have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and
-
have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011.
Basis for opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISAs (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the Foundation in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
Conclusions relating to going concern
In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the trustees' use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements is appropriate.
Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Foundation’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue.
Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the Trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report.
Other information
The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor's report thereon. The Trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the annual report. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact.
We have nothing to report in this regard.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT (continued)
TO THE TRUSTEES OF
HOLLYHOCK CHARITABLE FOUNDATION
Matters on which we are required to report by exception
We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters in relation to which the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 require us to report to you if, in our opinion:
-
the information given in the financial statements is inconsistent in any material respect with the trustees’ report; or
-
sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or
-
the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records; or
-
we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit.
Responsibilities of trustees
As explained more fully in the statement of trustees' responsibilities, the Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the Trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are responsible for assessing the Foundation’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Trustees either intend to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements
We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder.
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor's report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements.
A further description of our responsibilities is available on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: https://www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities. This description forms part of our auditor's report.
Extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud
Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above and on the Financial Reporting Council’s website, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud.
We obtain and update our understanding of the entity, its activities, its control environment, and likely future developments, including in relation to the legal and regulatory framework applicable and how the entity is complying with that framework. Based on this understanding, we identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. This includes consideration of the risk of acts by the entity that were contrary to applicable laws and regulations, including fraud.

----- End of picture text -----
INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT (continued)
TO THE TRUSTEES OF
HOLLYHOCK CHARITABLE FOUNDATION
In response to the risk of irregularities and non-compliance with laws and regulations, including fraud, we designed procedures which included:
-
Enquiry of management and those charged with governance around actual and potential litigation and claims as well as actual, suspected and alleged fraud;
-
Reviewing minutes of meetings of those charged with governance;
-
Assessing the extent of compliance with the laws and regulations considered to have a direct material effect on the financial statements or the operations of the entity through enquiry and inspection;
-
Reviewing financial statement disclosures and testing to supporting documentation to assess compliance with applicable laws and regulations; and
-
Performing audit work over the risk of management bias and override of controls, including testing of journal entries and other adjustments for appropriateness, evaluating the business rationale of significant transactions outside the normal course of business and reviewing accounting estimates for indicators of potential bias.
Because of the inherent limitations of an audit, there is a risk that we will not detect all irregularities, including those leading to a material misstatement in the financial statements or non-compliance with regulation. This risk increases the more that compliance with a law or regulation is removed from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, as we will be less likely to become aware of instances of non-compliance. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
Use of our report
This report is made solely to the Foundation’s trustees, as a body, in accordance with part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the Foundation’s trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditors' report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the Foundation and the Foundation’s trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Preparation of Financial Statements
The Hollyhock Charitable Foundation (“the Foundation” or “the CIO”), registered charity number 1186232, is based and administered in the United Kingdom. The registered address is Eighth Floor, 6 New Street Square, London, EC4A 3AQ. The nature of the Foundation’s operations and principal activities are set out in the Trustees’ Annual Report.

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 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) issued 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 Foundation constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by Charities SORP FRS 102.
In applying the financial reporting framework, the Trustees have made a number of subjective judgements, for example in respect of significant accounting estimates. Estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The nature of estimation means the actual outcomes could differ from those estimates. Any significant estimates and judgements affecting these financial statements are detailed within the relevant accounting policy below.
The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.
Incoming Resources
All incoming resources are included in the SOFA when the Trust is entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy.
Voluntary donations include donations under Gift Aid with the associated tax credits included when receivable. Interest from deposit accounts are included when received.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2021
Resources Expended
All expenditure is included on an accruals basis and is recognised when there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the Trustees to the expenditure. Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the activity for which expenditure was incurred.
Charitable activities include governance costs incurred during the period and are expended through the SOFA. Governance costs are costs relating to the general running of the Foundation, as opposed to the management functions inherent in generating funds.
Grants payable
Grants payable are made to third parties in furtherance of the Foundation's objects. Single or multiyear grants are accounted for when either the recipient has a reasonable expectation that they will receive a grant and the Trustees have agreed to pay the grant without condition, or the recipient has a reasonable expectation that they will receive a grant and that any condition attaching to the grant is outside of the control of the Foundation.
Financial instruments
The Foundation only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value.
Status of funds
The entire resources of the Foundation are unrestricted and the Trustees have complete discretion for their use in pursuance of the Foundation’s objectives.
Foreign currency
Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at the rate of exchange ruling at the Balance Sheet date. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are converted at the rate of exchange ruling at the date of the transaction. All translation differences are taken to the statement of financial activities as they arise.
Taxation
The Foundation is not subject to any taxes on its charitable activities. Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the category of resources expended for which it was incurred.
Creditors payable within one year
Creditors with no stated interest rate and payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised as expenditure.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand, deposits held on call with banks, other short-term highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and bank overdrafts. Bank overdrafts, when applicable, are included within borrowing in current liabilities.

| Provisions | ||||
| Provisions are recognised when the Foundation has | an obligation at the Balance Sheet date as a | |||
| result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required in settlement | ||||
| and the amount can be reliably estimated. | ||||
| Tangible Fixed Assets | ||||
| Tangible fixed assets are included at their cost value | and depreciated using the straight | line method | ||
| over 5 years. | ||||
| Going concern | ||||
| The Trustees have assessed whether the use of the going concern assumption is appropriate in | ||||
| preparing these Financial Statements. The Trustees have made this assessment in respect of the a | ||||
| period of at least 12 months from the date of signing of these financial statements. | ||||
| The Covid-19 pandemic and the ongoing Ukraine conflict (which is a | post year end event) have | |||
| created operational and financial pressures for most | organisations. The Trustees have considered | |||
| the contingency plans in place, the level of funds held, the expected level of income and | expenditure | |||
| and cash flow forecasts for 12 months from authorising these financial | statements and | believe that | ||
| no material uncertainties exist. The Trustees consider the adoption of the going concern basis in | ||||
| preparing these financial statements is appropriate. | ||||
