THE GEORGE & THOMAS HENRY SALTER TRUST

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Principal funding sources

During the year 33 individuals and 5 organisations were provided with grants for relief totalling £9,884. Schools, colleges , local organisations and individuals were provided education grants totalling £48,255

This represents 166% (2021: 167%) of the total income received from Investments of £35,015 (2021: £32,046).

As at 1 January 2022, the market value of fixed investments was £1,151,813. During the year there was a net negative re-investment of £55,853. As at 31 December 2022, the market value of fixed investments was £976,561, as a result of the fair value loss recognised during the year of £119,420.

Cash at bank decreased during the year from £512,242 as at 1 January 2022 to £503,746 as at 31 December 2022.

The Balance Sheet shows net assets of £1,476,407(2021 - £1,659,915).

Fixed Assets

The Charity has no tangible fixed assets.

Reserves Policy

The Trustees have established the level of reserves that they consider the Charity ought to have. Reserves are required to provide funds which can be designated to specific projects to enable these projects to be undertaken at short notice. The Charity supports organisations which are dependant upon continued support. The Trustees are concerned that Government and Local Authority funding is diminishing. This lack of social funding together with the economic effects of the pandemic is expected to result in more applicants for relief in need which the Trust would wish to ensure it could support and the charity's income must be preserved to ensure support for these projects and needs in the long term.

The Trustees therefore consider it prudent that the amount of unrestricted Reserves should be sufficient to cover future administration and support costs and therefore provide a Reserve of between £300,000 and £500,000. The current level of reserves of £460,722 is considered to be reasonable.

Going concern

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis as the trustees believe that no material uncertainties exist. The trustees have considered the level of funds held and the expected level of income and expenditure for 12 months from authorising these financial statements. The budgeted income and expenditure is sufficient with the level of reserves for the charity to be able to continue as a going concern.

FUTURE PLANS

The Trustees are concerned at the current increased costs of living and its economic impact on the needy residents of Sandwell and the reduced amounts that will be available for education and in particular for organisations providing sports and other community opportunities for the enhancement of the lives of the people of Sandwell.

They anticipate receiving increased grant applications . They are changing investment advisers to ensure continued growth of both income and capital to ensure they can meet this need.

They will continue to promote the charity through their website for both education and relief in need .Additionally,for education they will maintain their contacts with 6th Form Colleges serving Sandwell students going onto Higher Education, Sandwell Schools to assist with projects and equipment and Sandwell organisations providing educational opportunities such as Boys' brigades , scouts and guides, sports clubs, dramatic societies, choirs, luncheon clubs, and similar .

For Relief in Need - they will continue to publicise the Trust and in particular those supporting the trust, Social Services, Citizens Advice and similar organisations serving Sandwell residents who are in need and in particular supporting the elderly and disabled and providing social opportunities for them .

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').

THE GEORGE & THOMAS HENRY SALTER TRUST

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The George & Thomas Henry Salter Trust is a public benefit entity in England / Wales. The address of the registered office is given in the charity information on page 2 of these financial statements. The nature of the charity's operations and principal activities are page 1 of these financial statements.

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with 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 on 16 July 2014 (as updated through Update Bulletin 1 published on 2 February 2016), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Practice as it applies from 1 January 2015.

The charity has applied Update Bulletin 1 as published on 2 February 2016 and does not include a cash flow statement on the grounds that it is applying FRS 102 Section 1A.

The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain items at fair value. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £1.

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below. These policies have been consistently applied to all years presented unless otherwise stated.

The charity has got cash resources and has no requirement for external funding. The trustees have a reasonable expectation that there are adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. They continue to believe that the going concern basis of accounting is appropriate in the preparation of the financial statements.

Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In the application of the Charity's accounting policies, the trustees are required to make judgements, estimates and assumptions about the carrying amount of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The estimates and associated judgements are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered to be relevant. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The trustees do not consider any of these judgements or estimations to have any significant effect on the financial statements.

Income

All income is recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities once the charity has entitlement to the funds, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount can be measured reliably.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end date are noted as a commitment but not accrued as expenditure.

Taxation

The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.

Fund accounting

Unrestricted funds can be used in accordance with the charitable objectives at the discretion of the trustees.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF THE GEORGE & THOMAS HENRY SALTER TRUST

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The George & Thomas Henry Salter Trust

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of The George & Thomas Henry Salter Trust (the Trust) for the year ended 31 December 2022.

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 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all 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

  2. 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.
