THE ELLA ROWCROFT ENDOWMENT TRUST
STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
The Trustees present their annual report together with the audited financial statements of The Ella Rowcroft Endowment Trust (‘the charity’) for the year ended 31 March 2024. The Trustees confirm that the annual report and unaudited financial statements of the charity comply with the current statutory requirements, the requirements of the charity’s governing document and the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP FRS 102) “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” effective 1[st] January 2019.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
a. Policies and objectives
The charity was established in November 2019 with the sole objective of supporting the ongoing activities of Rowcroft Hospice by establishing, building and investing an endowment fund. The charity will benefit the community of Torbay & South Devon through direct financial support to the hospice with proceeds from this fund, enabling the hospice to continue to deliver and expand its specialist care and support to those who need it, free of charge.
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. Activity, achievements and plans
The Trustees remain focused on establishing the charity and developing the endowment. Rathbones are engaged as the investment manager for the charity, overseeing and administering the portfolio on behalf of the Trustees.
The Trustee Board recognise that cultivating philanthropic income and building the endowment to deliver significant returns will take time. Much work has been undertaken with Rowcroft Hospice in researching opportunities and developing the promotional material to market the proposition and attract donations.
The Trustee Board remain focused on engaging with High Net Worth donors, trusts and corporates and it is acknowledged this will take many years to build interest, engagement and ultimately advocacy and a donation to the endowment. The Trustees are grateful to Ms Judy Fitzgerald for agreeing to act as an ambassador for the charity and work with them to raise awareness of the endowment proposition and cultivate support.
The Trustees are sensitive to the needs of the Rowcroft Hospice capital appeal and recognise that building the Trust may take longer as a result.
c. Fundraising activities and income generation
The Trustees monitor fundraising practices on an ongoing basis through regular meetings between the Chairperson and Chief Executive of Rowcroft Hospice and at Trustee Board meetings.
We believe in the highest possible standards for our fundraising, considering supporters preferences in all of our activity. Ensuring that all of our activity is compliant with regulatory standards and in line with the intent of those standards.
The charity adopts the Fundraising Regulator standards and is committed to the Code of Fundraising practice. During the year the charity received no formal complaints arising from our fundraising activity.

c. Investments policy
Investment Objectives
The Trustees of The Ella Rowcroft Endowment Trust intend that the real value of their assets and funds be maintained and enhanced over the medium to long term (5 years) by investment in a portfolio comprising equities, fixed income stocks, land, property, cash and alternates. The aim is to achieve the best financial return within an acceptable level of risk.
The charity adopts a total return approach to investment, generating the investment return from income and capital gains or losses.
Attitude to risk
The charity requires the investment return to meet the charitable objective: to support the ongoing activities of Rowcroft Hospice by establishing, building and investing an endowment fund.
The Trustee Board are able to tolerate volatility of the capital value, as long as the charity is able to meet its long- term objective of capital growth and investment to provide an annual donation to Rowcroft Hospice.
Liquidity Requirements
To allow for volatility of capital values, the Trustee Board wish to maintain at least £100k in cash or lower risk liquid investments to support cash flow needs.

FINANCIAL REVIEW (continued)
d. Investments policy (continued)
Time Horizon
The charity is expected to exist in perpetuity and investments should be managed to meet the charitable objective and ensure this sustainability. The Trustee Board can therefore adopt a long-term investment time horizon.
Investment Brief
In order to meet these objectives, the Board appointed an investment manager as their agent to manage a diversified portfolio of suitable investments on a discretionary basis. The specific restriction relates to the noninvestment with any organisation undertaking the manufacture of tobacco.
The proportion of the portfolio invested in equities, fixed income stocks, land & property and cash shall be reviewed with the investment manager from time to time to agree a suitable mix for the coming period. It is anticipated that such a review will take place at least annually.
Review/Reporting
The Board will regularly consider whether there is a need to revise this Policy Statement and keep under review the arrangements under which the investment manager acts as our agent.
The Board require valuations on a quarterly basis and a year-end report containing detailed information relating to income and gains for use by the charity’s auditors.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
a. Constitution
The charity (Number 1186330) is registered as a charitable incorporated organisation (CIO) with the Charity Commission for England and Wales, incorporated on 13 November 2019, and is governed by its CIO Constitution document date 16 June 2022. It is led by a Board of Trustees, details of which are given on page 1.
b. Methods of appointment or election of Trustees
The management of the charity is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected and co-opted under the terms of the CIO Constitution.
The Board consists of Trustees who are nominated from the Rowcroft House Foundation Ltd (Rowcroft Hospice) Trustee Board (‘Nominated Trustee’) and those appointed by the Board of Trustees via an open recruitment process inviting applications from those with appropriate skills, experience and/or qualifications (‘Appointed Trustee’). Rowcroft Hospice may nominate up to three Nominated Trustees.
With the exception of the founding Trustees who have staggered first terms, Trustees are appointed for a three year term which is renewable up to a further two terms of three years. Each term is determined by election at a General Meeting.
A Nominated Trustee automatically ceases to be a Trustee should they resign or retire from the Board of Rowcroft Hospice. However they may choose to stand for re-election as an Appointed Trustee to continue their existing term should there be a vacancy on the Trustee Board.

THE ELLA ROWCROFT ENDOWMENT TRUST
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024
1. GENERAL INFORMATION
The Ella Rowcroft Endowment Trust is a charitable incorporated organisation, registered in England and Wales. The trustees of the Charity are named on page 1. The registered number of the charity is 1186330. The registered office is Rainbow House, Ella's Gardens, Avenue Road, Torquay, Devon, TQ2 5LS.
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 on 16 July 2014 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.
The Ella Rowcroft Endowment Trust 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. GOING CONCERN
The Trustees assess whether the use of going concern is appropriate, i.e. whether there are any material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the ability of the Charity to continue as a going concern. The Trustees make this assessment in respect of a period of one year from the date of approval of the financial statements. No material uncertainties related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt about the ability of the Charity to continue as a going concern have been identified by the Trustees.
2.3. 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.
2.4. 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.
All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT.
2.5. INVESTMENTS
Fixed asset investments are a form of financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction cost and subsequently measured at fair value at the Balance sheet date, unless the value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investment gains and losses, whether realised or unrealised, are combined and presented as ‘Gains/(Losses) on investments’ in the Statement of financial activities.
2.6. 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.
2.7. 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.
2.8. LIABILITIES AND PROVISIONS
Liabilities are recognised when there is an obligation at the Balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement, and the amount of the settlement can be estimated reliably.
Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.
2.9. 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.
2.10. FUND ACCOUNTING
