Reserves policy
The trustees have reviewed the reserves of the trust and the forecast level of free reserves (those that are not restricted or designated) that will provide the trust with fi nancial fl exibility and provide a cushion against shortfalls in income, either planned or unanticipated. The level of free reserves at 31 March 2023 was £609,359 (2022: £631,071). The trustees consider this level of free reserves satisfactory to meet annual donations to charities.

Trustees' report for the year ended 31 March 2023
Trustees' responsibilities
The trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees' report and the accounts in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare accounts for each fi nancial year in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable regulations). Under that law the trustees must not approve the accounts unless they are satis fi ed that they give a true and fair view of the state of a ff airs of the charity and of the income and expenditure of the charity for that year.
In preparing these accounts, the trustees are required to:
-
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
-
observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP;
-
make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
-
state whether applicable United Kingdom Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any departures disclosed and explained in the accounts; and
-
prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in operation.
The trustees are responsible for keeping proper accounting records which are su ffi cient to show and explain the charity's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the fi nancial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the trust deed. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the charity and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.

The Owen Jenkins Trust
Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The Owen Jenkins Trust
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of The Owen Jenkins Trust for the year ended 31 March 2023 which comprise the statement of fi nancial activities, the balance sheet and the notes to the accounts, including a summary of signi fi cant accounting policies.
Respective responsibilites of trustees and examiner and basis of report
As the charity's trustees, you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ("the Act").
I report in respect of my examination of the charity's accounts carried out under section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
Independent examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I con fi rm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the trust as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

1 Accounting policies
1.1 General information
The Owen Jenkins Trust was established by a trust deed dated 25 November 2019. It is registered with the Charity Commission in England & Wales (No. 1193318). The address of the principal o ffi ce is Lauriston, 5 Ashton Road, Shrewsbury, SY3 7AN.
1.2 Basis of preparation
The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention.
The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland ("FRS 102") and with the Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with FRS 102 (e ff ective 1 January 2019). The accounts are also prepared in accordance with the Charities Act 2011.
The charity is a public bene fi t entity as de fi ned by FRS 102.
The charity only has fi nancial assets and fi nancial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic fi nancial instruments. Basic fi nancial instruments are recognised at transaction value.
The accounts are prepared on a going concern basis; there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern.
1.3 Functional currency
The accounts are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the charity. Monetary amounts in these accounts are rounded to the nearest £1.
1.4 Income
All incoming resources are included in the statement of fi nancial activities when the charity is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quanti fi ed with reasonable accuracy.
Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable.
1.5 Expenditure
All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and recognised where there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the trustees to the expenditure. Expenditure is included under expense categories that aggregate all costs. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular activities, they have been allocated on a basis consistent with the use of resources.
1.6 Investments
Investments are initially recognised at their transaction value and subsequently measured at fair value. Investments are stated at market value at the balance sheet date. Realised gains and losses on investments, calculated on the di ff erence between the sale proceeds and their cost, are credited or charged to the statement of fi nancial activities in the year of the gain or loss.
Unrealised gains and losses representing the movement in the market values during the year are credited or charged to the statement of fi nancial activities in the year of the gain or loss.
1.7 Fund accounting
All funds held are unrestricted and are therefore available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objects of the trust and which have not been designated for other purposes.
