Horizon Scandal Fund (Charity Number 1199595)
Trustees report for the year ending 30 November 2023
Background
The Horizon Scandal Fund (“HSF”) was incorporated as a company limited by guarantee on 12 November 2021 (Company number 13739654). It was recognised as a charity in England and Wales in July 2022 and the trustees are indebted to Ian Fagelson who worked pro bono in helping to get the charity up and running.
The aim of the charity is that which is set out in article 2.1 of the Articles of Association:
(a) the relief or prevention of hardship, poverty, sickness and distress among those people who have suffered and been affected as a result of problems with the Post Office’s computer accounting system commonly known as Horizon, in its Legacy Horizon, Horizon Online or HNG-X versions; and
(b) The relief of poverty among persons who have worked (whether on an employed or self-employed basis) at Post Office counters and their families.’
Trustees
The charity initially had 4 trustees: David Chaplin (Chair), Helen Lacey, Nick Wallis and Nicola Wallis. Four more trustees joined subsequently: Helen Baker and Sandra Tizzard were appointed on 9 March 2022, Varchasanraj Patel was appointed on 6 April 2022 and Eleanor Shaikh was appointed on 17 November 2023.
Patron
The board is delighted that Lord Arbuthnot of Edrom agreed to be patron of HSF on 18 November 2022.
HSF website (www.horizonscandalfund.org)
The website was launched in November 2021 and it includes a page where members of the public can donate money (through donorbox – see below). It also includes details of trustees, administrative information such as company and charity numbers and contact details as well as relevant news.
Donations
Donations have been received through two main channels: a percentage of revenue from The Great Post Office Scandal book published by Bath Publishing Ltd and from private individuals. The trustees are very grateful for the support and assistance received from Ian Fagelson and The Erskine Hill Charitable Trust during the early days which allowed the charity to accept donations and give grants to those in need at the earliest possible time.
Individuals can donate in several ways:
-
By cheque
-
By donating a one-off amount via the HSF website (with an option to download a form so HSF can claim Gift Aid on the donation)
1
- By using donorbox which is also accessed on the HSF website. This facility allows individuals to donate a one-off amount or to set up a monthly direct debit. It also allows for Gift Aid to be claimed if the individual indicates accordingly.
Grant funding
HSF has a grant funding policy in place which sets out the criteria for granting funds to applicants. All the trustees agreed that the application process should be as simple as possible, bearing in mind that applicants have had to complete various applications for compensation already and should not be forced into more onerous and potentially traumatic applications. The trustees have therefore considered applications by email, letter and through the website. Each application has been judged on its merit and to date, all trustees have been unanimous in their decision making.
Nick Wallis has indicated his reluctance to take part in voting when considering applications for funding as he does other journalistic work regarding the scandal and does not want to be conflicted. Nick therefore has no vote when deciding the success or otherwise of the applications.
Grants made
The grants have been for a variety of needs, including:
-
Treatment for a support animal that was involved in a RTA
-
Short breaks for victims
-
Hardship grants (including paying rent, bills and a business debt that was subject to a CCJ)
-
Arranging counselling for victims and family members.
The future
Moving forward the trustees are looking to promote further awareness of the charity, to encourage not only donations but to reach victims that have not so far reached out for assistance and recompense, as well as those who are continuing to suffer whilst waiting for restitution - a process that is taking an exceptionally long time to bring an acceptable result.

Horizon Scandal Fund Company No. 13739654 Directors' Report For The Year Ended 30 November 2023

Directors
The directors who held office during the year were as follows:
Mr David Chaplin
Ms Helen Lacey Mrs Nicola Wallis Mr Nicholas Wallis
Ms Helen Baker
Mr Varchasanraj Patel Mrs Sandra Tizzard Mrs Eleanor Shaikh Appointed 17/11/2023
Statement of Directors' Responsibilities
The directors are responsible for preparing the Directors' Report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and regulations. Company law requires the directors to prepare financial statements for each financial year. Under that law the directors have elected to prepare the financial statements in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the directors must not approve the financial statements unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing the financial statements the directors are required to:
select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;
make judgments and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent;
- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business.
The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities.
The directors are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the company's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions.
Small Company Rules
This report has been prepared in accordance with the special provisions relating to companies subject to the small companies regime within Part 15 of the Companies Act 2006.
On behalf of the board
Ms Helen Lacey

In accordance with the engagement letter dated 11 February 2022, and in order to assist you to fulfil your duties under the Companies Act 2006, we have compiled the financial statements of the company from the accounting records and information and explanations you have given to us.
This report is made to the directors in accordance with the terms of our engagement. Our work has been undertaken to prepare for approval by the directors the financial statements that we have been engaged to compile, to report to the directors that we have done so, and to state those matters that we have agreed to state to them in this 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 Company and the Company's directors for our work or for this report.
You have acknowledged on the balance sheet as at year ended 30 November 2023 your duty to ensure that the company has kept proper accounting records and to prepare financial statements that give a true and fair view under the Companies Act 2006. You consider that the company is exempt from the statutory requirement for an audit for the year.
We have not been instructed to carry out an audit of the financial statements. For this reason, we have not verified the accuracy or completeness of the accounting records or information and explanations you have given to us and we do not, therefore, express any opinion on the financial statements.
