## Trustees’ Annual Report 

## Year ended 30 June 2022 

The trustees present their report and the unaudited financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30 Juné 2022. 

## Chair's report 

Last year’s Report registered the fact that the Covid restrictions had changed the way In which our staff and trustees were operating. The situation has changed but not fo a great extent; all the meetings have continued on Zoom but the staff have been able to meet together in the office afbelt on a samewhat limited basis. Although the cost savings using Zoom are worthwhile, | believe that the faca to face contact ls very beneficial and expect that at teast some of our meetings will be “in person” very shortly. Have these constraints reduced the effectiveness of the operation? Almost certainly not and the response from the staff to those seeking help has been exemplary. It is to the credit of the staff that they have continued to provide an excellent service to the “customers” and indeed to the trustees In trylng times; thank you. However, the gradua retum to working together has helped the staff to interact In a way not possible remotely and the benefits of direct personal relationships cannot be underestimated. 

We have been fortunate in recruiting two new Trustees who have brought fresh eyes and new perspectives on the work of the Fund. | would like to express my thanks to all our Trustees for the time that they give often against a background of work and home pressures. 

Despite the Covid problems and the emerging cost of Hving crisis, applications for help from the Fund have remained steady. This situation has persisted despite new initiatives to publicise the Fund through advertisements In relevant local newspapers In both hard and digital formats. There has been continued interest for the “bursary” schema and 4 growing number of people have been helped with grants to ease their financial burdens. Tha Publicity subcommittee will continue to explore new avenues to get the Fund aut there. 

Time was spent on a Future Strategy for moving the Fund forward in the changing environment and recognising the challenges of operating In a diverse nuclear Industry. tt is very Ilkely that the Fund will change its emphasis In the caming years as the old UKAEA potential recipients fade from the picture. 

. 

The assets of the Fund, as managed by Rathbones, have remained in a healthy state; the value of the Fund on paper Is determined by the stock market and will show variations. However, the International investment spread used by Rathbones looks to achieve the best possible results in a variable market

## Structure, governance and management 

The Nuclear Industry Benevolent Fund, formerly the UBA Benevolent Fund and previously the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority Benevolent Fund Is a registered charity (No 208729) which was set up by the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority In 1957. Its activities are governed by its Rules and Constitution, which were Introduced at that time. These have been updated as needed since then, the last update being in April 2017. 

Tha trustees are individuals who have been appointed to ensure that the charity carries out its purpose and objectives in accordance with its governing document and the law. They serve for an initlal period of one year after which period thay may be reappointed for further periods. There must be a minimum of 8 trustees, and can be a maximum of 14. 

Trustee vacancies ara filled by the Committee of Management. There is no formal training programme for new trustees. They are provided with a welcome pack, which Includes a copy of the Rules and the latest Annual Report. If they require further advice, Information or training on particular aspects of thelr duties, arrangements can be made for this on an ad hoc basis. New trustees are also Invited to attend a mesting of the Cases Committee. 

The Committee of Management normally meets twice a year, when the trustees agree the broad strategy for the Fund, and general guidance on grantloan making, investment, staffing policy, reserves and risk management, for Its sub-committees. 

The Committee has set up a number of sub-committees to oversee the more detailed implementation of policy and to make recommendations to the Committes. Individual trustees are appointed to these sub-committees and the membership ts reviewed annually. 

The Cases Committee meets five times a year, to consider applications for assistance. The Investment sub-committee meets once or twice a year as required, and agrees the Investment policy with the Fund's investment managers. It monitors retums on the Investments, and agrees changes of strategy with the managers as needed. All other sub-committees meet on an ad hoc basis, when required. 

The administration of the Fund Is delegated to the Fund Secretary, The Fund Secretary, who Is not a trustee, is a member of the Committse of Management, Cases Committee and Investment SubCommittee. She reports to the Chairman.

## Applications to the Fund 

The initial contact for applicants is normally directed to tha Fund office. Most of the required Information Ig gathered by the Fund staff, by post, electronicatly or by telephone. 

Occasionally, we receive applications from other charities on behalf of Individuals who are allgible to apply to more than one charity. These tend to include all the facts included on our own forms together with observations by that charity's representative. Similarly, [f we can identify another charity to which an applicant could apply, we advise hinvher to approach them directly. In such cases the two charities wil often work together, sharing the cost of the assistance awarded. 

## Other Organisations and Funds 

Networking with other similar funds continues to be extremely useful. It is helpful to have the opportunity to discuss matters such as demand for assistance, publicity methods and recrultment matters etc, This is made easier by the Fund's membership of the Association of Charitable Organisations (ACO). Not only Is this a valuable source of Information on benefits, it also has a wide knowledge of other funds and how they operate. 

It brings to tight similarities and differences In the way charities function, all of which Is extremely useful in formulating policy. Through it we are able to contact other similar funds. It also has a website listing all members and therefore is a point of contact for potential beneficiaries, which is particularly Important in view of the need to reach as many eligible people as possible. 

## Objectives and activitlas 

The Object of the Fund, as stated In the Rules and Constitution, is the relief of financlal hardship and distress among past, present and future members of staff of the United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority, British Nuclear Fuels plc and Amersham International plc or any successor company or organisation to which has been transferred and which is carrying on the undertaking or part of the undertaking previously carrled on by the Authority, British Nuclear Fuels plc or Amersham International plc, any company which has at anytime been a subsidiary of British Nuclear Fuels plc or any other companyor organisation which is or has been engaged in the Nuclear Industry In the United Kingdom.

## Public Benefit 

The trustees review the Fund's objectives and activities on a regular basis and confirm that In doing so they have complied with the duty under section 4 of the Charities Act 2011, to have regard to the Public Benefit guidance published by the Charity Commission for England & Wales (the Commission). 

The Object of the Fund is the relief of financial hardship, which is clearly recognised In the guidance as a potentlal Public Benefit, subjact to compliance with the principles which are fald down. The Fund relleves financial distress in tangible form by giving assistance In the form of grants and interest-free loans, as summarised in detall elsewhere in this Report. Of equal Importanca is the significant level of advice which the Fund provides to applicants with financial problems. 

The objectives of the Fund limit benefit to a section of the public, being present and past employees of the organisations defined under Objectives and activitles. The trustees consider that Ilmitation to this significant dass of people is reasonable and relevant. 

There Is no further restrictlon on the opportunity to benefit. Because of the continulng proliferation of employers who are carrying on parts of the undertakings of the named organisations, the trustees make every effort to maintain and continually revise a record of such employers, for reference on recelving requests for assistance, to ensure as far as possible that no eligible person is excluded. No fee ts charged for access to any benefit. 

The trustees are not aware of any detriment arising from the activitlas of the Fund, which would nesd to be offset against the benefit. The trustees therefore consider that the Fund fully complies with the principles laid down in the Commission's guidance on Public Benefit. Grant and and Loan Making Policy a 

Grant and and Loan Making Policy a The Cases Committee considers requests for financial assistance from current and ex-employess, Requests may also come from the families or dependants of those employees. The Cases Committee establishes that the applicant is eligible for assistance, and then considers his/har financial position. Having regard to guidelines approved by the Committee of Management, the Cases Committees decides whetheror not assistance would bs appropriate. If so, help can be given in the form of a one-off grant for a particular raquirement, or a regular grant that continues until the circumstances Improve. In most circumstances, the Fund ts also able to offer advice on how the individual's sttuation can be Improved, and in some cases, this Is all that is required.

This scheme has now been made a permanent addition to the benefits offerad by the Fund, with the numbers of applications continuing to increase. Payments under the scheme amounted to £54,670 In the year (2021; £21,802). 

## Monitoring Achievement 

Since the Fund can only respond to the requests It recelves, and can only give assistance when the applicant's circumstances merit help, It Is not possible to set performance targets in relatlon to its charitable activities. it does however, usually set targets relating to other activities. 

Because of the Coronavirus (Covid 19) pandemic restrictions, the Fund did not set any targets last year. It was agreed to continue with the publicity campaigns within nuclear organisations which it did.

- : legacy income is recognised when receipt is probable and entitlement Is established. .

Donated facifties and services are recognised in the accounts when recelved if tha value can be reliably measured. No amounts are Included for the contribution of general volunteers. —. 

- . income from contracts for the supply of services Is recognised with the delivery of the contracted service.

## Impairment of fixed assets 

A review for indicators of impairment is carried out at each reporting date, with the recoverable amount being estimated where such indicators exist. Where the carrying value exceeds the recoverable amount, the asset is impaired accordingly. Prior impairments are also reviewed for possible reversal at each reporting date. 

For the purposes of Impalrment testing, when it is not possible to estimate the recoverable amount of an Individual asset, an estimate ts made of the recoverable amount of the cash-generating unit to which the asset belongs. The cash-generating unit Is the smallest Identifiable group of assets that Includes the asset and generates cash Inflows that are largely Independent of the cash Inflows from other assets or groups of assets. 

For Impairment testing of goodwil, the goodwill acquired in a business combination is, from the acquisition date, allocated to each of the cash-generating units that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination, Irrespective of whether other assets or liabllitlas of the charity are assigned to those units. , 

## Financial Instruments 

A financial asset or a financial liability ls recognised only when the charity becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument 

Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at the amount recelvable or payable including any related transaction costs. 

Current assets and current !labitttes are subsequently measured at the cash or other consideration expacted to be pald or received and not discounted. 

## Debt instruments are subsequently measured at amortised cost 

Where investments in shares are publicly traded or thelr falr value can otherwise be measured reliably, the investment Is subsequently measured at fair value with changes in falr value recognised in income and expenditure. All other such investments are subsequently measured at cost less Impairment. 

Other financlal Instruments, including derivatives, are initially recognised at fair value, unless payment for an asset Is deferred beyond nonnal business terms or financed at a rate of interest that is not a market rate, in which case the asset is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. 

Other financlal instruments are subsequently measured atfair value, with any changes recognised in the statement of financial activities, with the exception of hedging instruments In a designated hedging relationship. 

Financial assets that are measured at cost or amortised cost are reviewed for objective evidence of impairment at the end of each reporting date. If there is objective evidence of impairment, an impairment loss is recognised under the appropriate heading in the statement of financial activities - in which the initial galn was recognised.
