THE MICKLEGATE ECCLESIASTICAL TRUST TRUSTEES’ REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022


TRUSTEES’ REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

The trustees present their report and financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022.

The trustees have adopted the provision of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) "Accounting and Reporting by Charities" in preparing the charity's annual report and financial statements.

This is the first annual report for The Micklegate Ecclesiastical Trust. The charity was formerly the unincorporated charity known as The Holy Trinity and St Martin’s Ecclesiastical Trust, an amalgamation of the separate Holy Trinity Micklegate Church Close Trust and St Martin with St Gregory Church Estate Trust.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the financial statements and comply with the trust's governing document, the Charities Act 2011 and "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 published in October 2019".

OBJECT

The object of the CIO is to further the religious and other charitable work of the Church of England in the Area of Benefit, including the repair and maintenance of the Churches.

To achieve the above object, the charity holds several assets, split between commercial and residential property, alongside an investment portfolio. The property is leased accordingly, producing rental income.

The Trustees confirm that they have complied with the duty in section 17 of the Charities Act 2011 to have due regard to the public benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission in determining the activities undertaken by the Charity.

THE MICKLEGATE ECCLESIASTICAL TRUST TRUSTEES’ REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022


FINANCIAL REVIEW

During the year, the charity had a surplus of £85,609, which included a net loss on investment funds of £228,984 and a property revaluation of £352,350. Total income was £199,351 (2021: £193,009), and total expenditure was £372,108 (2021: £215,494).

At 31 December 2022, the charity had total funds of £5,647,777 (2021: £5,697,168 as restated). Of this sum, £1,790,508 relates to investment funds (2021: £3,129,368), £3,210,160 relates to investment property (2021: £2,110,000 as restated), £250,000 to tangible fixed assets (2021: £250,000), £397,109 relates to net current assets (2021: £232,150) and £nil relates to non-current liabilities (2021: £24,350). The income generated from the investments was £199,160 (2021: £193,009). Free reserves are £824,693 (2021: £997,450) including listed investments as these could easily be liquidated if required.

RESERVES POLICY

Based on current and reasonably predictable future requirements for funding, and current and reasonably anticipated income generated from the Charity’s properties and investments, the Charity will keep a minimum of £50,000 in immediately accessible cash balances to act as a general reserve. An additional £50,000 will also be similarly set aside to fund any unexpected requirement, including cover for any significant shortfall, interference in the Charity’s income stream, or financial demand or liability such as emergency repair work to the Charity’s properties. This policy will be reviewed every two years, and the trustees have plans to review this again in 2023.

FUND RAISING

As the charity obtains funding from its property and investment portfolio income, there have been no specific fundraising activities.

GOING CONCERN

As required by the Charities Statement of Recommended Practice (FRS 102), we assess whether any uncertainties may cast doubt over the Charity’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Reference to the economic environment and COVID-19 pandemic is included here to demonstrate the impact on the Charity. Despite the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the current economic environment (interest rates and high cost of living), the Charity continues as a going concern. Despite wider economic issues, both dividend and rental income remain within levels where the Trustees are not presently concerned.

RISK MANAGEMENT

The trustees are aware of the financial risks associated with fund and property investment in relation to capital and income valuations.

FUTURE PLANS

There are no plans to change the way in which the charity operates or the work that it undertakes at this point in time. The Trustees highlight the following aims and activities that are planned to take place in future periods.

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

The Charity is regulated by a CIO Constitution dated 12 January 2022.

SAFEGUARDING POLICY

The Trustees are of the view that the Charity has no direct involvement with children or vulnerable adults. This policy will be reviewed every three years. Where considered appropriate, the Charity will ask all recipients of grants whether those organisations have a safeguarding policy in place. Where there are cases of safeguarding issues, the Charity will review any grant policy about that organisation.

INVESTMENT POLICY

The Trustees’ investment powers are determined by current legislation, and in consideration of the content of the Charity Commission guidance (CC14 as amended), the trust believes it has no financial investments in conflict with those guidelines or the aims and purposes of the Charity.

The Charity receives all of its income from a portfolio of property and investments predominantly traded on the London Stock Exchange together with open-ended investment funds and unit trusts, which are regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority. It will aim to generate from its investments natural income of at least the equivalent of the Bank of England’s base rate plus inflation. However, it is acknowledged that this may not be achievable during particular economic climates. All investment performances are compared with their benchmarks where applicable. Where appropriate, the Charity will also consider ethical investments within financial investments, programme-related and mixed motive investments and social investments outside financial investments.

To act in the trust's best interests and comply with its charitable responsibilities, the trust will employ professional advisers to manage its commercial and other property interests. Similarly, the Charity will employ a professional adviser to manage its non-property investment portfolio, which will be reviewed at least annually. The trust has adopted an investment strategy to balance potential growth with income through diversification, capital preservation and an appropriate appetite for risk. The trust acknowledges that investments can fluctuate in value, react to market volatility, and cannot guarantee a fixed or increasing level

of income and that regulation and worldwide political and financial climates can significantly impact investments, values and income. It is considered that the trust investments are appropriate, sufficient and suitable for the Trust’s requirements.

This policy will be reviewed every three years.

Ethical Investment: describes a way of making financial investments which consider the charity’s values and ethos. Trustees must exercise their investment power in the best interests of the Charity.

Mixed Motive Investment (MMI): one which Trustees can justify making on the basis that it combines a financial return as well as a contribution to furthering their Charity’s aims.

STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ report 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 & Wales requires the Trustees to prepare financial statements for each financial which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:

The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the charity’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounting 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 MICKLEGATE ECCLESIASTICAL TRUST TRUSTEES’ REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022


INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS’ REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE MICKLEGATE ECCLESIASTICAL TRUST

I report to the trustees on my examination of the financial statements of The Micklegate Ecclesiastical Trust (the trust) for the year ended 31 December 2022.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the trustees of the charity you are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act).

I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s financial statements carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act. In carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the trust as required by section 130 of the 2011 Act; or

  2. the financial statements do not accord with those records; or

  3. the financial statements 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 financial statements to be reached.

THE MICKLEGATE ECCLESIASTICAL TRUST TRUSTEES’ REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022


NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Accounting policies

Charity information

The Micklegate Ecclesiastical Trust is a charity registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales.

1.1. Accounting convention

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the trust's governing document, the Charities Act 2011, "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)" and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102).

The Charity is a Public Benefit Entity as defined by FRS 102.

The trust has taken advantage of the provisions in the SORP for charities applying FRS 102 Update Bulletin 1 not to prepare a Statement of Cash Flows.

The financial statements 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 Statement of Recommended Practice for charities applying FRS 102 rather than the version of the Statement of Recommended Practice which is referred to in the Regulations but which has since been withdrawn.

The financial statements are prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the Charity and rounded to the nearest £1.

Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy notes. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below.

1.2. Going concern

At the time of approving the financial statements, the trustees have a reasonable expectation that the trust has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future although the assets and liabilities will be transferring to the Micklegate Ecclesiastical Trust CIO, the activities will continue through the new entity . Thus the trustees continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the financial statements.

1.3. Charitable funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of their charitable objectives.

Endowment funds are funds which are held for the permanent benefit of the trust. There is no power to convert capital into income. All income generated can be used in accordance with its objects of the charity and is included as unrestricted income. Any capital gains or losses arising from the investments form part of the fund.

1.4. Income

All income is included in the statement of financial activities when the charity is legally entitled to the income and the amount can be quantified with reasonable accuracy.

1. Accounting policies continued

1.5. Expenditure

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category.

Raising funds comprise the costs associated with managing investment funds and investment properties.

Charitable expenditure comprises those costs incurred by the trust in the delivery of its activities and services for its beneficiaries.

1.6. Tangible fixed assets

Expenditure on fixed assets costing more than £2,000 is capitalised.

Freehold property Freehold land is not depreciated Land Freehold land is not depreciated

1.7. Investment properties

Investment properties (including land) for which fair value can be measured reliably without undue cost or effort are measured at fair value at each reporting date with changes in fair value recognised in ‘net gains/(losses) on revaluation of investments’ in the statement of financial activities. Fair value is deemed to be the market value as valued by property consultants in accordance with guidelines issued by The Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors.

1.8. Fixed asset investments

Fixed asset investments are initially measured at transaction price excluding transaction costs and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Changes in fair value are recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred.

1.9. Impairment of fixed assets

At each reporting end date, the trust reviews the carrying amounts of its tangible assets to determine whether there is any indication that those assets have suffered an impairment loss. If any such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is estimated in order to determine the extent of the impairment loss (if any).

1.10. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents include cash in hand and deposits held at call with banks.

1.11. Financial instruments

The trust has elected to apply the provisions of Section 11 ‘Basic Financial Instruments’ and Section 12 ‘Other Financial Instruments Issues’ of FRS 102 to all of its financial instruments.

Financial instruments are recognised in the trust's balance sheet when the trust becomes party to the contractual provisions of the instrument.

Financial assets and liabilities are offset, with the net amounts presented in the financial statements, when there is a legally enforceable right to set off the recognised amounts and there is an intention to settle on a net basis or to realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
