ement
The artivities of the charity were transferred to 3 Charitable Incorporated Organisation on the I
January 2020. This new entity is also called the Faraday Masonic Benevolent Fund and its
registration was accepted by the Charity Commission on 26 November 2019. Its charity number is
1186584. The old charity, nurnbered 1003824. was removed from the Central Register of Charities
on 22 February 2020.

Each Craft Lodge respectively by re501ution has the power to nominate not more than one of its
members to be appointed a trustee of the Benevolent Fund. The nominee is appointed by the
continuing Trustees.
The charity does not have a share t3Pital. The artivities of the charity and its trading subsidiary,
Faraday House Functions Limited. are such that there is no requirement for audit nor to prepare
group accounts. An examination is performed as required under the trust deed.
Ob-ectives and actNlties
In addition to the distribution of its own available monies to charitable cau5e5. the Faraday Masonic
Benevolent Fund assumes part of the chaiitable responsibilities of the Benevolent Funds of the five
Masonic Lodges meeting at the Masonic Hall, Grantham namely,. Doric, Granta, William Peters, Sir
Isaac Newton and Meridian Daylight. including the making of charitable contributions to social and
educational local community organisations. old age persons, children's and young persons, clubs and
sickness relief organisations.
The Trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission's
general guidance on public benefit when reviewing the charity'5 aims and objettive5 and in planning
future activities

Achievements and erformance
The Faraday Masonic Benevolent Fund has made charitable donations of £100 during the year under
review.
Financial review
The Trustees aim to retain unrestricted current reserve5 sufficient to cover at least one year's
operating costs.
Whilst the impact of Covid-lg has had a significant negative effect to revenue in 2020 and will
continue to do so in 2021. with the asslstance of government grants and there being available
current reserves to meet the chariws obligations as and when they fall due, with the available
information we have at the current time there is no reason why the charity should not be considered
a going concern.

pages 5 to 11.
Res
ective res
onsibilities of Trustees and Examiner
The charity's Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the accounts. The charity's Trustees
consider that an audit is not required for this year under section 144121 of the Charitie5 Act 2011 Ithe
2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed. The charity commission number is
1186584.
It is my responsibility to:
examine the accounts under section 145 of the 2011 Act..
follow the procedures laid down in the general Directions given by the Charity Commission
under section 14515}Ibl of the 2011 Art: and
state whether particular matter5 have come to my attention.
Basis of Independent Examiner's statement
My examination was carried out in accordance with the general Directions given by the Charity
Commission. An examination includes a review of the accounting records kept by the charity and a
comparison of the accounts presented with those records. It also includes consideration of any
unusual items or disclosures in the accounts and seeking explanations from you as Trustees
concerning any such matters. The procedures undertaken do not provide all the evidence that
would be required in Bn audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the account5
present a "true and fair view" and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement
below. As part of my review l also examined the account5 and accounting records of Faraday House
Funrtions Limited.
Independent Examiner's statement
In connection with my examination. no matter has come to my attention:
which gives me reasonable cause to believe that, in any material respect, the
requirements..
to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act- and

to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the
accounting requirements of the 2011 Att.
have not been met,. or
121
to which, in my opinion. attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper
understanding of the accounts to be reached.
