Registered Charity No 221356
ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2023
The Chair’s Report
It’s been another excellent year for The Talbot Trusts. We have awarded grants to 30 local charities, CICs and Social Enterprises that support and give a lifeline to many people including refugees, LGBTQIA+, those with physical and learning disabilities, older people, victims of abuse, users of food banks, those that are homeless and those that struggle with their mental health.
The Board has grown from 7 trustees to 8 and also evolved to include a Chair and Vice Chair, Mike Sawkins. We welcomed two new trustees, Shasta Ashraf and Sarah Poulter to the team, and also said goodbye to Tim Plant, who retired after 12 years on the board. We’re so thankful for Tim’s knowledge, experience and contributions during his time with the charity.
Some of my personal highlights from our activity this year include:
-
Our commitment and ongoing work on equality, diversity and inclusion, including appointee a trustee to lead on this. The impact of this has shown already in the diversity of the grants awarded.
-
Our commitment to continue to fund work to reduce the impact of poverty, with a particular focus on homelessness. This is a key priority for the City of Sheffield and I’m proud that we’re able to help address this inequality alongside many other voluntary and charitable organisations across the city.
As a charity we’re always looking at ways we can improve to ensure we’re more representative and accessible to the communities we serve. As part of this we became part of the Yorkshire Common Application Form initiative which aims to make the application process for grant applicants easier and faster.
As the cost of living crisis continues to impact communities and charities alike, our own charitable funds having been affected and we have reduced funds to distribute. As a Board we have an obligation to ensure that any funding we do award has the most benefit and impact on the communities we serve. To help with this, we have recently started work on overhauling our feedback forms so they are simple and not a chore to complete, but we can see the difference funding has made to people and the communities the charities work with and ultimately support. The feedback forms will be a valuable future tool and resource in helping to shape and pinpoint our future funding priorities.
I would like to personally thank all of the Board for their hard work, energy, commitment and dedication. I would particularly like to thank Gill Newman, Secretary, for her experience and support. I have been on the Board for 6 years and during this time I have seen The Talbot Trusts break down barriers, welcome change and, most importantly, make a significant difference to the lives of many individuals and communities. Although I am standing down as Chair and Trustee, I remain immensely proud of what The Talbot Trusts has achieved and I know it will continue to do wonderful
things and continue to support the people of Sheffield and South Yorkshire to the best of its ability.
Mel Russell Chair of the Trusts

1. HISTORY OF THE TRUSTS
Photo of Sarah Talbot
In 1928 Frederick John Talbot and his wife Sarah Talbot made an anonymous donation to provide funds for convalescent and after care treatment. Frederick John Talbot was the owner of a Sheffield steel works who observed that convalescent and aftercare services were poorly developed for manual workers. Their donation provided resources for this purpose particularly for his employees and other manual workers enabling them to recover properly and reducing the risk of a worker returning to employment too soon and suffering in consequence or by neglecting themselves.
Over the years Mr & Mrs Talbot made further donations, which were held in Trust and known as the Talbot Cuff Convalescent Fund. On their deaths they separately bequeathed a substantial part of their estate for similar aftercare services. For a time these bequests were operated as separate Trusts until a scheme to amalgamate the three funds was approved by the Charity Commissioners in 1955. It was at this date that the Charity became known as The Talbot Trusts.
Until 1980 the Trusts provided assistance solely to the hospitals in Sheffield with grants being
distributed by hospital social workers. The level of investment income had increased significantly at this time and exceeded the needs of the social workers. The Trustees, therefore, submitted a request to the Charity Commissioners for a widening of the Trusts' powers. This was granted in 1980 and enabled the Trustees to extend grant disbursements to other organisations and also for persons who were sick, disabled or infirm.
2. APPLICATION OF INCOME
The scheme approved in 1988 included the following objects:
Subject to the payment of any management expenses the Trustees shall apply the income of the Charity for the purpose of relieving persons who are sick, convalescent, disabled or infirm by providing or paying for items, services or facilities which are calculated to relieve the suffering or assist the recovery of such persons in such cases but are not readily available to them from other sources.
The Trustees may make arrangements for such services or facilities to be provided for that purpose by other institutions or organisations in return for donations or subscriptions out of the income of the Charity.
The Trustees shall observe the following restrictions:
They shall not apply any part of the income directly in relief of rates, taxes or other public funds but may apply income in supplementing relief or assistance provided out of public funds.
3. GRANTS POLICY
-
The Trustees meet on an adhoc basis to consider grant applications.
-
The Trustees will only approve grants for items, services and facilities that directly benefit the groups of persons set out below, per the objects of the charity:
“Subject to the payment of any management expenses the Trustees shall apply the income of the Charity for the purpose of relieving persons who are sick, convalescent, disabled or infirm by providing or paying for items, services or facilities which are calculated to relieve the suffering or assist the recovery of such persons in such cases but are not readily available to them from other sources”
-
The Trustees expect the receivers of grants to operate a policy of equal opportunities.
-
All proposals eligible for a grant must address our priorities.
-

7. General criteria for grants
• Applications cannot be considered if an organisation has over 12 months of operating costs in their unrestricted reserves, unless an explanation is provided that is acceptable.
- Applications need to include all costs relevant to the application
• There is no lower limit to the size of grants which may be applied for, we typically fund applications of around £3,000 and, in exceptional circumstances, we would consider grants up to £5,000.
• Applicants will be requested to provide financial information and consideration will be given to evidence of ongoing planning beyond project completion, including evidence of financial viability in the longer term. We will have discretion to take account of applicants’ other sources of funding, such as other grants secured and/or pledged. • Applicants may be asked to submit further information as appropriate. • For all applications, we may, at our discretion, give priority to applicants who have not received funds before or who offer new benefits that meet our priorities.
• All grant awards are made at the discretion of The Talbot Trusts and the decision of the Trustees in each case is final.
- The Trustees are unable to commit themselves to approving recurrent grants.
4. INVESTMENT POLICY
-
The passing of the Trustee Act 2000 has enabled the previous investment restrictions to be removed.
-
The Act gives wider powers to Trustees including the power to delegate investment management.
-
The Trustees have agreed that investments should be spread so that the portfolio is more representative of the All Share Index and that income yields are maximised whist preserving the value of the capital base by adopting an investment strategy of moderate risk.
-
The Trustees are investigating the use of Sustainability Development Goals to aid with investment decisions.
-
The Trusts' Investment Manager is Investec Wealth & Investment Ltd.
5. RESERVES POLICY
-
Having made proper allowance for the costs of administering the charity, the balance of net income is available each year for grant making.
-
The policy of the Trustees is to keep sufficient funds in reserves to meet the grants programme.
-
The accumulated surplus of unspent income at the end of March 2023 was £74,024
6. EQUALITY AND DIVERSITY
Principles:
-
To demonstrate our commitment to diversity and equality, working to eliminating all forms of discrimination whether covered in law or not.
-
To raise awareness, recognise and celebrate our successes, forming a platform for continuous learning and improvement.
-
To have Board members, staff and members that reflect the makeup of the communities we serve.
-
To work in inclusive ways in developing an organisational culture that proactively promotes diversity and equality.
-
To ensure the Trustees and Clerk are supported and trained in knowledge and skills to deliver our policy on diversity and equality.

Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of the Talbot Trusts
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2023 which are set out on pages 4 to 13.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity’s trustees 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 charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 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:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
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.

Independent examiner’s report to the trustees of the Talbot Trusts
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 March 2023 which are set out on pages 4 to 13.
Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity’s trustees 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 charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 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:
-
accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
-
the accounts do not accord with those records; or
-
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.
