THE COMBINED CUTLERS COMPANY CHARITABLE TRUST

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2023

History and objectives

The Combined Cutlers Company Charitable Trust has two linked organisations, The Cutlers Company Charitable Trust and The Sir John Osborn Charitable Trust (registered as John Osborn Charitable Trust). The charities are treated as a single charity for the purposes of Part II (registration) and Part IV (accounting). The Trustees recognise and understand that this does not constitute an amalgamation of the two charities, which remain separate and legally distinct, and that the funds for each charity are spent only for the purposes of that charity. The Trustees also understand that they must identify in the overall accounts the financial transactions, assets and liabilities of each charity.

Principal activities of The Cutlers Company Charitable Trust include the relief of persons resident in South Yorkshire who are in need, hardship or distress.

The Sir John Osborn Charitable Trust allows both capital and income to be applied for charitable purposes and for the benefit wholly or mainly for the people of Sheffield. Up to one quarter of the annual calendar income (but no capital) may be expended on the charitable objects of The Cutlers' Hall Preservation Trust Limited.

Structure, governance and management

Governing document

The Combined Cutlers Company Charitable Trust was formed on 14 April 2008 under a scheme approved by the Charity Commission. The Trust is a registered charity in the United Kingdom.

Recruitment and Appointment of the Trustees

The management of the Trust is vested in Trustees drawn from the 33 Members of the Company of Cutlers in Hallamshire.

Trustee induction and training

All the Trustees are very familiar with the practical work of the charity and some are Trustees of other charities. In addition, all Trustees have been briefed by the Secretary and have been given copies of the Charity Commission publication 'The Essential Trustee: What you need to know'.

Achievements and Performance

During the year income totalled £68,859 (2022: £65,896) and expenditure of £87,917 (2022: £81,455) was directed towards the principal objectives of the Trust.

Generally, the policy of the Trustees is to make smaller grants to local groups with limited funds to maximise the impact.

The Sir John Osborn Charitable Trust. The Trust made grants totalling £38,656 which are listed individually on pages 11-13.

The Cutlers’ Company Charitable Trust. The trust made grants totalling £22,500 which are listed individually on pages 11-13.

In setting objectives and planning activities the Trustees have given careful consideration to the Charity Commission’s public benefit guidance.

Future plans

The Trustees continue to recognise the key objects of the Cutlers Company Charitable Trust and the Sir John Osborn Charitable Trust. It is intended to maintain the policy of making a few larger donations but most are to smaller charities

THE COMBINED CUTLERS COMPANY CHARITABLE TRUST

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2023

Financial Review

The results of the year are set out in the statement of financial activities on page 6.

Investment policy

The Trustees' investment powers are set out in the Scheme, as supplemented by the Trustees Act 2000. The Trustees have considered their duties under the Scheme and under the Trustees Act 2000 and have decided that the funds of the Trust should be invested through Rathbones Group PLC with the aims being that:

The Trustees have instructed the investment manager to manage the portfolio on a fully discretionary basis and have entered into a formal agreement with Rathbones Group PLC for this purpose. The Trustees review this strategy annually or as circumstances dictate.

Fundraising Policy

The Combined Cutlers Company Charitable Trust accept donations but do not routinely engage in fund raising from the public.

Risk management

The Trustees have examined the major strategic and operational risks to which the Trust is exposed. A risk register has been established and is updated at least annually. Where appropriate, systems or procedures have been established to mitigate the external risks the Trust faces. Internal control risks are minimised by the implementation of various procedures for authorisation of transactions and the safeguarding of assets. Overall they are satisfied there are adequate systems to mitigate those risks.

The charity uses financial instruments, comprising cash and debtors. The main purpose of these financial instruments is to finance the working capital cycle of the charity and finance longer term capital needs.

THE COMBINED CUTLERS COMPANY CHARITABLE TRUST

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2023

----- End of picture text -----

Reserves policy

The Trustees take a risk-based approach to setting the reserves policy. They consider it prudent to hold sufficient reserves to cover a reasonable level of grant distributions for a 12 month period. This is currently fixed at £75,000. In addition, the terms of the Sir John Osborne Charitable Trust allow the expenditure of all reserves held in the event of a major crisis in Sheffield. Therefore the Trustees feel it is appropriate to hold larger reserves in this fund. In 2023 total unrestricted reserves are £261,467 with £199,277 held in Sir John Osborne Charitable Trust. The Trustees feel these reserve holdings are appropriate.

Statement of Trustees' responsibilities

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Report of the Trustees and the financial statements 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 financial statements for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the charity and of the incoming resources and application of resources of the charity for that period.

In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to:

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER’S REPORT

Independent Examiner's Report to the Trustees of The Combined Cutlers Company Charitable Trust

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 30 September 2023 which are set out on pages 6 to 19.

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:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity 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.

THE COMBINED CUTLERS COMPANY CHARITABLE TRUST

NOTES OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2023

1. Charity information

The Combined Cutlers Company Charitable Trust is registered with the Charity Commission (no 224063). The registered office is The Cutlers Hall, 7-15 Church Street, Sheffield, S1 1HG.

2. Basis of preparation and significant accounting policies

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 issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice. The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102.

The financial statements have been prepared to give a 'true and fair' view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a 'true and fair' view. This departure has involved following the Charities SORP (FRS 102) issued in October 2019 rather than the Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice effective from 1 April 2005 which has since been withdrawn.

The financial statements are prepared on the 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.

2a. Going concern

The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis. The trustees have assessed the going concern position and have no reason to believe that there is a material uncertainty that would affect the ability of the organisation to continue as a going concern for the foreseeable future. The trustees consider the foreseeable future to be at least 12 months from the date the financial statements are signed.

2b. Income

Donations and gifts

All monetary donations and gifts are included in full in the statement of financial activities when receivable, provided that there are no donor-imposed restrictions as to the timing of the related expenditure, in which case recognition is deferred until the pre-condition has been met.

Investment income

Investment income, including associated income tax recoveries, is recognised when receivable.

2c. Expenditure

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to make payment to a third party, it is probable that settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

Expenditure, which is charged on an accruals basis, is charged as expenditure incurred directly to the fulfilment of the Charity's objectives (charitable activities).

All costs are allocated directly to the applicable expenditure heading.

Grants payable

All grants payable are included in the Statement of Financial Activities in the year in which they are paid.

THE COMBINED CUTLERS COMPANY CHARITABLE TRUST

NOTES OF THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2023

2d. Taxation

The charity is considered to pass the tests set out in Sch. 6, para. 1 of the Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charity for UK income tax purposes. Accordingly, the charity is potentially exempt from taxation in respect of income or capital gains received within categories covered by Income Tax Act 2007, Part 10 s521 – s537 or s. 256 of the Taxation of Chargeable Gains Act 1992, to the extent that such income or gains are applied exclusively to charitable purposes.

2e. Fund accounting

Restricted funds are to be used for specified purposes laid down by the donor. Expenditure for those purposes is charged to the fund, together with a fair allocation of overheads and support costs.

Endowment funds represent those assets which must be held permanently in trust by the charity for the benefit of the charity.

Unrestricted funds are donations and other incoming resources received or generated for expenditure on the general objectives of the charity.

Designated funds are unrestricted funds which have been designated for a specific purpose by the Trustees.

2f. Fixed asset investments

Investments are initially recognised at their transaction cost and subsequently measured at the fair value of balance sheet date. Movements in fair value are recognised in the Statement of Financial Activities.

2g. Debtors

Debtors are measured at their settlement amount.

2h. Cash and cash equivalents

Cash is represented by cash in hand and deposits with financial institutions repayable without penalty on notice of not more than 24 hours. Cash equivalents are highly liquid investments that mature in no more than three months from the date of acquisition and are readily convertible to known amounts of cash with insignificant risk of change in value.

2i. Creditors

Short term creditors are recognised when there is an obligation at the balance sheet date as a result of a past event, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefit will be required in settlement and the amount can be estimated reliably.

3. Critical accounting estimates and areas of judgement.

There were no significant judgements or estimation uncertainties in the preparation of these financial statements that have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities within the next financial year.
