## **Trustees** 

David Birch Anna Bunney Diana Holliday Meg Whittaker 

Trustees are appointed by the surviving trustees upon the death or retirement of a trustee in accordance with Clause 19 of the 1940 Trust Deed as modified by the 1959 Deed of Variation. Each Trustee may nominate a replacement trustee who then, if not already known to the other 

4 



Trustees, attends several Trustees’ meetings as an ex officio member, and then the Trustees decide on whether to appoint the proposed person as a trustee. 

## **Responsibilities of the Trustees** 

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the trustees' report and the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102: The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

The law applicable to charities in England and Wales requires the Trustees are to prepare financial statements for each financial year, which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and the incoming resources and application of resources, including the net income or expenditure, of the charity for the year. In preparing those financial statements the Trustees are required to: 

- Select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently; 

- Observe the methods and principles in the applicable Charities SORP; 

- Make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- State whether applicable accounting standards and statements of recommended practice have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; and 

- Prepare the financial statements 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 disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the constitution. The Trustees 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 Trustees are responsible for the maintenance and integrity of the corporate and financial information included on the charity's website. Legislation in the United Kingdom governing the preparation and dissemination of financial statements may differ from legislation in other jurisdictions. 

The Trustees are members of the Charity, but this entitles them only to voting rights. The Trustees have no beneficial interest in the charity. The Trustees are responsible for making grants from the Trust funds in conformity with the Trust’s objects given above. 

## **Activities for the Public Benefit** 

The Trustees have continued to make grants within the objects of the Charity as stated above. A list of the 49 grants made during 2022 is included on pages 18 and 19 and details of the 4 largest grants, which amount to 26% of the total grants given in 2022, are given in Appendix A. 

The Objects of the Trust are given above. The Trustees confirm that they have referred to the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on Public Benefit when 

5 



reviewing the Trust’s aims and objectives and in planning future activities and setting the grant making policy for the year. 

The Trustees meet, usually quarterly, to discuss and agree matters affecting the Trust including its investments, financial statements and agree to make grants within the objects stated above. The Trustees also try and meet with a few of the main organisations that the Trust is helping to finance each year. 

Requests for grants from the Trust are received in three main ways: 

- Unsolicited requests from other charities and individuals, largely arising from the Trust’s entry in the Charity Commissioner’s web site and the Directory of Grant Giving Trusts. 

- The Trust has supported a number of charities for a considerable period of years and requests are received from these for further funds. 

- The Trustees themselves each have particular interests and are proactive between meetings in contacting organisations and charities within their areas of interest to see whether the trust can help such organisations. 

At each of the meetings of the Trustees requests are considered and a unanimous decision reached as to which to support and how much grant to give each organisation. 

The Trustees have a policy of generally not providing funds directly to individuals. This is because the Trustees do not have the resources to check the bona fides of such cases or to monitor the use of such grants. The exception to this is where individuals are known to the Trustees or contacts of the Trustees and whose requests comply with one of the Trust’s objectives. The Trust does however support individual cases through other charities which are able to monitor the use of the funds. 

## **Review of Financial Position** 

The financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2022 show an increase of expenditure over income of £13,820. After allowing for realised and unrealised losses on investments of £137,413 funds have decreased by £151,233 in the year. 

## **Reserves Policy** 

The Trust’s investments are unrestricted. The Trust’s investments are held in selected funds by CCLA Investment Management Limited (Registered in England No. 2183088).  The funds are selected to achieve a balance between capital appreciation/depreciation and income. The Trustees as a grant making trust hold the reserves to provide income for grants and the withdrawal of capital to enable them to distribute an annual level of grants which provide for the sustainable continuation of the Trust and which is currently considered to be about £50k. CCLA investments are highly ethical, one of the key reasons that the Eva Reckitt Trust has chosen CCLA for its investments. 

6 



## **Risk Assessment** 

The Trustees have reviewed the major risks to which the Trust is exposed and are satisfied that systems are in place to mitigate the exposure to these risks. 

For many charities the COVID-19 pandemic has been a major issue. However, for us whilst CCLA, our stockbrokers, have made a significant loss on our investments in 2022, since we only spend what we earn from our income and a small amount of sales of capital this does not constitute a risk to us as we have no long term commitments and are able to adjust our expenditure accordingly and hence we are well able to continue as a going concern. Moreover, at the time of preparing this report in September 2023, CCLA have started to make up last years losses and expect this to continue into 2023. 

## **Investments** 

The Trust holds its investments in several Funds held by CCLA. CCLA are specialist investment managers for charities, faith organisations, and local authorities that provide a range of funds designed specifically for charities and which is owned entirely by its charity, faith and local authority clients and managed exclusively for their benefit. CCLA Investment Management Limited is authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority. 

The Trustees have arranged for CCLA to transfer the income from the investments held by CCLA quarterly to the Trust’s current account for use in paying out as grants and expenses.

## **THE EVA RECKITT TRUST FUND** 

## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS** 

I report to the Trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Eva Reckitt Trust Fund for the year ended 31 December 2022, as set out on pages 9 to 21. 

## **Responsibilities and basis of report** 

As the charity Trustees of the Trust 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 Trust’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 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 confirm that no material 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 Act; or 

2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or 

3. 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.

## **EVA RECKITT TRUST FUND** 

## **Notes to the Financial Statements for the Year Ended 31 December 2022** 

1. Accounting Policies 

   - a. Basis of accounting 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities in preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019) - (Charities SORP (FRS 102)), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102). 

Eva Reckitt Trust Fund meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy note(s). 

- b. Going concern basis of accounting 

The accounts have been prepared on the assumption that the charity is able to continue as a going concern, which the Trustees consider appropriate having regard to the current level of unrestricted reserves. The Trustees considered the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic when assessing going concern. The Trustees concluded that the charity was a going concern as it only spends what is earned from the investments. The Trustees reviewed the investments and noted that whilst CCLA, our stockbrokers, have made a significant loss on our investments in 2022, since we only spend what we earn from our income and a small amount of sales of capital this does not constitute a risk to us as we have no long term commitments and are able to adjust our expenditure accordingly and hence we are well able to continue as a going concern. Moreover, at the time of preparing this report in September 2023, CCLA have started to make up last years losses and expect this to continue. Therefore, the Trustees believe there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern. 

- c. Funds accounting 

Unrestricted funds are available to spend on activities that further any of the purposes of the charity. Restricted funds are donations which the donor has specified are to be solely used for particular areas of the charity's work or for specific projects being undertaken by the charity. 

12 



**EVA RECKITT TRUST FUND Notes to the Financial Statements (Cont’d) for the Year Ended 31 December 2022** 

## d. Income 

Income is recognised when the charity has entitlement to the funds, any performance conditions attached to the item(s) of income have been met, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably. 

Investment income is recorded when receivable and deemed unrestricted and available for distribution. 

- e. Expenditure and grants payable 

Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Expenditure on grants is recorded once the charity has made an unconditional commitment to pay the grant and this is communicated to the beneficiary or the grant has been paid, whichever is earlier. 

- f. Support and governance costs 

Support costs are those functions that assist the work of the charity but do not directly undertake charitable activities. Governance costs are the costs associated with the governance arrangements of the charity, including the costs of complying with constitutional and statutory requirements and any costs associated with the strategic management of the charity’s activities. These costs have been allocated in full to the charitable activities on the basis that all resources and time are spent in this area. No significant resources are directed towards raising funds. 

- g. Investments 

Investments are stated at market value at the balance sheet date. Realised and unrealised investment gains and losses that are made during the year are reflected in the Statement of Financial Activities. The types of investment are shown at note 5. 

- h. Debtors 

Trade and other debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discount offered. 

- i. Cash at bank and in hand 

Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly liquid investments with a short maturity of three months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account. 

13 



**EVA RECKITT TRUST FUND Notes to the Financial Statements (Cont’d) for the Year Ended 31 December 2022** 

## j. Creditors 

Creditors are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors are normally recognised at their settlement amount after allowing for any trade discounts due. 

## k. Financial instruments 

The charity only has financial assets and financial liabilities of a kind that qualify as basic financial instruments. Basic financial instruments are initially recognised at transaction value and subsequently measured at their settlement value. 

- l. Accounting estimates and key judgements 

In the application of the charity's accounting policies, the Trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and underlying assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. 

The estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. 

The key sources of estimation uncertainty that have a significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements are described below. 

## **Asset valuation** 

As described in note 1(g) to the financial statements, investments are stated at market value at the balance sheet date.
