The trustees present their report and accounts for the year ended 5 April 2021. The accounts have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 and comply with 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 (FRS102) published on 16 July 2014.
STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT
Governing document
The charity is controlled by its governing document, a Deed of Settlement dated 18 April 1957 (as amended 10 February 1981), and constitutes an unincorporated charity.
Trustees
The trustees who served during the year were: David Boyd Victoria Morland Rebecca Morland Rachel Boyd
The power of appointing new trustees is vested in the majority of the trustees.
Risk management
The trustees have a duty to identify and review risks to which the charity is exposed and to ensure appropriate controls are in place to provide reasonable assurance against fraud and error. The trustees have assessed such risks and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate their exposure to major risks.
OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES
Objectives and aims
The Deed of Settlement allows for the pursuit of general charitable purposes at the discretion of the trustees. It provides that the trustees may apply both trust income and capital for such charitable purposes as they decide.
The trustees may apply funds to further the charitable objects of any organisation or to make grants to individuals to advance education or relieve poverty.
The trustees' usual policy is to invest the trust capital, and to use the income arising from these investments to make direct grants and donations to organisations which either directly or indirectly are involved in charitable work both in the UK and overseas.
Public benefit
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's aims and objectives and setting its grantmaking policies.
ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE
The trustees do not usually consider unsolicited applications unless they meet the criteria of the charity. all grants are considered by the trustees at their meetings. The trust generally makes grants to charities it has supported on a long term basis but each year this list is reviewed and new charities may be added. The trust normally only makes grants to registered charities and not to individuals. During the year 26 (2020: 26) grants totalling £40,500 (2020: £39,500) were made to a wide range of charities both in the UK and overseas. The grant payment represents a distribution of 137% of income (2020: 106%).

FINANCIAL REVIEW
Grantmaking
The trust's net expenditure for the year before revaluations and disposals were £23,956 (2020: £14,311 outgoings). Gains on investment revaluations and disposals during the year totalled £269,242 (2020: losses £124,667). 76% (2020: 77%) of the trust's outgoings were for charitable activities.
Reserves policy
All reserves are unrestricted and used at the discretion of trustees. As at the 5 April 2021 the trust's reserves totalled £1,233,229 (2020: £987,943). £1,232,450 (2020: £984,388) are held as investments to generate income for distribution as grants in future years.
At present the trust has no ongoing projects or financial commitments and the reserves reported should enable the trustees, if they so decide, to continue making grants at a similar level for the foreseeable future our of income rather than capital.
Investment powers and policy
The trustees' investment powers allow them to invest as they think fit in any form of investment authorised by law for the investment of trust monies or in the stocks and shares of any nature of any company incorporated in the United Kingdom of Great Britiain and Northern Ireland or on deposit with any bank, insurance company or building society.
The portfolio of investments is management by the investment advisors on a discretionary basis although in most cases changes to the portfolio will be discussed in advance with the trustees. The portfolio is managed on the basis of a balance between income and capital appreciation subject to a medium degree of risk and subject to ethical investment criteria. The trustees regularly review investment performance and their ethical investment criteria.

The trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' Report and the accounts in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice).
The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the trustees to prepare accounts for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the income resources and application of resources 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 accounting standard have been followed subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the accounts; and
-

The trustees are responsible for keeping sufficient accounting records that disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (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.

Independent examiner's report To the Trustees of S C & M E Morland's Charitable Trust
I report on the accounts of the charity for the year ended 5 April 2021, which are set out on pages 7 to 12.
Respective reponsibilities 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 the period under section 144(2) of the Charities Act 2011 (the 2011 Act) and that an independent examination is needed.
Basis of independent examiners' report
My examination was carried our 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 comparision 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 an audit and consequently no opinion is given as to whether the accounts present a 'true and fair view' and the report is limited to those matters set out in the statement below.
Independent examiner's statement
In connection with my examination, no matter has come to my attention:
-
(a) which gives me reasonable cause to believe that in any material respect the requirements:
-
(i) to keep accounting records in accordance with section 130 of the 2011 Act; and
-
(ii) to prepare accounts which accord with the accounting records and comply with the accounting requirements of the 2011 Act;
-
have not been met; or
-
(b) to which, in my opinion, attention should be drawn in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
