The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in note 1 to the accounts and comply with the Charity's Trust Deed, the Charities Act 2011 and 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 (FRS102). ## **OUR PURPOSES AND ACTIVITIES** The Charity’s purpose is to provide relief, either generally or individually, to persons resident in the Ancient Parish of St Nicholas, Deptford, London SE8 who are in conditions of need, hardship or distress by making grants of money or providing or paying for items, services or facilities to reduce need, hardship or distress. The ancient parish of St Nicholas remains the primary area of benefit of the charity although it is now part of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St Nicholas and St Luke, Deptford. This Parish is in one of the poorest areas of the country. The 2016 Joint Strategic Needs Assessment commissioned by the Royal Borough of Greenwich includes data illustrating that the majority of residents in the primary area of benefit are living in social housing with high levels of benefit need. There are high levels of unemployment and poor health in the area and the Charity gives financial support to projects which impact on these needs. The Charity applies the objectives in the deed of trust to include: - The prevention and relief of poverty - The advancement of health - The advancement of education - The relief of those in need by reason of youth, age, ill health, disability, financial hardship or other disadvantage. In meeting these objectives, the Charity has continued to support the charity’s registered pensioners and their well-being. The Charity has also supported a local community project (The Armada Community Project) which is instrumental in supporting the local community and particularly those residents who are disadvantaged by lack of opportunity. In undertaking its activities, the Trustees have paid due regard to the Charitable Commission guidance on public benefit, and are satisfied that the Charity confers a public benefit. Contributions are made by volunteers who are committed to the Charity’s work with its pensioners and they bring their commitment to the Charity. Their contribution has enabled the Charity to expand the work they do with pensioners. ## **Policy on grant making** The Charity’s policy on grant making regarding individuals is that they must be on a low income and live in the area of benefit. The Charity’s policy on grant making for projects is that the projects deliver in line with the Charity’s objectives that the main beneficiaries of the project are from the ancient parish of St Nicholas. During the year the Charity made one project grant (2021 – one) and no grants directly to individuals (2021 – none). (4) ## **SIR JOHN EVELYN’S CHARITY** ## **CHARITY NO: 225707** ## **TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT** ## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 (Contd)** The Charity’s funds are vulnerable to changes in the economic climate and in the event of a major downturn the trustees cap the grants made to organisations supported by the Charity. ## **ACHIEVEMENTS OF THE CHARITY DURING THE YEAR** Weekly pensions continue to be paid to low-income elderly residents living in the area of benefit; these relatively small sums provide an important supplement to the state pensions received. The Charity provided a range of activities and support that helped alleviated social isolation and improve health and well-being including: - a weekly lunch club for the Charity’s pensioners; - food gifts at Christmas for the pensioners; - one to one support for pensioners at the Armada Hall, in their own homes and in hospital; - advice and support on welfare issues to adults in financial need, including assisting with benefit and other applications; - supporting the community in a garden project. The Charity continued to provide all the pensioners with contact number for the trustees so that two of the trustees could actively responding to any emergencies. The trustees contacted the pensioners on a regular basis, with particular regard to the most vulnerable. All pensions continued to be paid directly into the relevant pensioners accounts. The charity office is easily accessible within the area of benefit. Activities are planned, managed and delivered by the Clerk to Trustees who divides her time between supporting charitable activities and dealing with the day to day administration of the charity. In recent years, due to the economic downturn, the Charity reduced spending on grants to organisations. The Charity however continued to support the Armada Community Project throughout this period and subsequently as it was deemed to be of vital importance to residents in financial need in the area of benefit. The support from the charity has enabled the Armada Community Project to continue to provide additional support to the Charity’s pensioners and beneficiaries. In supporting this project, the Charity gives residents in the area of benefit access to facilities which contribute to individuals’ well-being including: - pensioners weekly arts and craft activity. - support accessing training and employment support - general interest classes. - Women's support group. - advice on welfare issues. No other grants were paid during 2022. (5) ## **SIR JOHN EVELYN’S CHARITY** ## **CHARITY NO: 225707** ## **TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT** ## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 (Contd)** ## **FINANCIAL REVIEW** The Charity's investments decreased during 2022 due to the change in market value of those investments. The investments have decreased by £236,460 compared with a increase of £210,875 in 2021 (see note 8 to the financial statements). All investments are held within two portfolios at Brewin Dolphin Ltd being one for the Endowment Fund and one for the Income Fund. The Charity decreased its expenditure on grants to £3,626 during 2022 (2021 - £4,528). There were fewer grant applications for groups received than before the Covid pandemic. It is hoped that more applications will occur in future. The Charity has continued to make payments to the pensioners and increased the weekly amount given during this year. It also continued to support pensioner’s meals during the year whenever permitted. The Charity was reliant upon volunteer workers to assist with this however other costs also increased as people were once again able to meet. The Charity made a surplus for the year of £426,191 (2021 – £9,805) mainly due to the proceeds of Stowage from Hyde Housing Association, before taking into account any investment losses. After taking into account the net losses on the investments the level of reserves increased to £3,940,068 (2021 - £3,751,909). The financial position at the year end is sound with an investment portfolio of £2,611,655 (2021 - £2,844,761) and cash balances of £1,331,430 (2020 - £910,571). The high cash balances are being retained as the Charity is still going forward with its plan to purchase property, and is taking advice on the right time to buy in the economic climate ## **Investment Policy and Risk Management** During a previous year the trustees commissioned an independent financial adviser to produce a statement of investment principles for the Charity and subsequently moved the funds to an endowment portfolio and an income reserve portfolio managed by Brewin Dolphin Ltd. This continued for the year ended 31 December 2022. The trustees continue to take professional advice from their investment manager regarding the market outlook, investment trends and yield and the prospect for future capital growth. The investment manager is instructed to invest to maximise the total return on permanent endowment funds within the constraints of a medium to low risk investment portfolio. The trustees consider viability of investment returns on the permanent endowment to constitute the charity's major financial risk. This is mitigated by retaining expert investment managers and having a diversified investment portfolio. The charities Risk Management Policies were reviewed and agreed in January 2020. A review of internal financial controls was also undertaken at this time. ## **Reserves Policy** As the investment portfolio is the major source of funding and the charity has no external funding, the Charity’s policy is to maintain its reserves at a level that will enable it to continue to make grants to projects and individuals in future years. 6) ## **SIR JOHN EVELYN’S CHARITY** ## **CHARITY NO: 225707** ## **TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT** ## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 (Contd)** ## **STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT** The Charity is unincorporated and was founded by a deed of gift dated 27 March 1749 and has been governed by a Scheme of the Commissioners since 7th April 1992. The reference and administrative information for the charity is shown on page 2 of this report. The Charity lost two trustees during the early part of the year and continued with four trustees during the year under review. A further trustee joined in early 2023 replacing the Councillor that stepped down. During the year ended 31 December 2016 the Bishop of the Diocese of Southwark in the Church of England had agreed to appoint Church Trustees directly however this has still not taken place during 2022. The Charity reviews its policies and procedures on an on-going basis. It is also a member of the NCVO which provides useful guidance, support and training on good practice and changes in the law affecting charities. The Trustees are supported by a clerk appointed by the trustees who is responsible for the day to day administration of the Charity and its purposes. The trustees intend to meet approximately five times a year and hold their AGM at the first meeting of each year but this did not occur in 2022 as we recovered from the Covid pandemic however the trustees were all in regular contact by emails. It is hoped that regular meetings will commence again in 2023 and this has occurred to date. Any trustee who has an interest in any of the grant applications must declare and abstain from discussions and voting. The Chairperson has the deciding vote. The Chairperson position is reviewed annually at the AGM, to give other trustees the opportunity to apply for the position. ## **Appointment of Trustees** The Charity’s Scheme in place during this year stipulates that the Charity has up to nine Trustees all of whom must have a special knowledge of the area of benefit through residency or employment: - Two Trustees nominated by the Diocese. - Five Trustees nominated by Royal Greenwich Council - Two co-opted Trustees with particular knowledge of the local community The Charities Governing Document is currently under review. Consideration is being given to ceasing the nominations from the Diocese and to increase the nominations by Royal Greenwich Council to Seven. This amendment is in the process of being put forward to all relevant sources. ## **Future plans** Sir John Evelyn’s Charity is a lasting testimony to the generosity and charitable concerns of Sir John Evelyn and other donors living in the 17[th] , 18[th] and 19[th] centuries. To facilitate the long term viability of the Charity to fulfil its charitable purposes, the Trustees made the difficult decision in a previous year to reduce grants to organisations in order to ensure that spending did not exceed income. Having reduced grants, particularly during 2017 and 2018, the Charity was in a position to expand its provision of pensions and grants to individuals in need but this did not take place in the last few years due to restrictions imposed by the pandemic. They are now in a position consider awarding more project grants to support its charitable purpose within the area of benefit (whilst working within a budget). (7) ## **SIR JOHN EVELYN’S CHARITY** ## **CHARITY NO: 225707** ## **TRUSTEES ANNUAL REPORT** ## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 (Contd)** ## **Future plans (continued)** The Trustees anticipate that over the next few years the Charity will: - a) Increase the number and diversity of pensioners and deliver more activities to reduce isolation for pensioners and families; - b) Increase the provision of grants for individuals in need, including specific grants; - c) Continue to review and improve the Charity’s structure, governance and management to support its charitable objectives and grant making processes; - d) Review the level of available funds brought about by the sale of the Charity's freehold investment property to ensure the Charity reinvests the funds in one or more residential properties that will provide an increased income to use for charitable purposes outlined above. - e) Review the governing document to ensure inclusivity and diversity in the local community ## **STATEMENT OF TRUSTEES’ RESPONSIBILITIES** The trustees are responsible for preparing a trustees' annual report and 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 charity trustees to prepare financial statements for each 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 the financial statements, the trustees are required to: - select suitable accounting policies and apply them consistently; - observe the methods and principles in the applicable charities SORP; - make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent; - state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures that must be disclosed and explained in the financial statements; - prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to assume 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 to enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Charities Act 2011, the applicable Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations, and the provisions of the Scheme of the Commissioners dated 7 April 1992. They 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.

Trustee (8) ## **SIR JOHN EVELYN’S CHARITY** ## **INDEPENDENT EXAMINERS REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES** ## **SIR JOHN EVELYN’S CHARITY IN RESPECT OF THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022** I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2022 which are set out on pages 9 to 16. ## **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 confirm that I am qualified to undertake the examination because I am a member of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, which is one of the listed bodies. 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.

Approved by the Trustees on October 2023 and signed on their behalf ............................................................................ Trustee ............................................................................ Trustee (11) **SIR JOHN EVELYN’S CHARITY** **NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS** ## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022** ## 1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES ## 1.1 Basis of accounting These accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention with items recognised at cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant notes to the accounts. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice: Accounting and Reporting by Charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) (applicable January 2019) and the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS102) and the Charities act 2011. The trust constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS102. The trust has applied update bulletin 1 and does not include a cash flow statement on the grounds that it is applying FRS102 Section 1A. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity. The trustees consider that there are no material uncertainties about the charity's ability to continue as a going concern as the charity holds sufficient funds to secure its immediate future for the next year. The financial statements are therefore prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention modified to include quoted investments at market value. ## 1.2 Incoming Resources All income is recognised once the charity has entitlement to the income, it is probable that the income will be received and the amount of income receivable can be measured reliably. Investment income is recognised once the dividend or interest has been declared and notification has been received of the amount due. This is normally upon notification by our investment adviser of the dividend yield of the investment portfolio. Interest on any bank accounts are included in the Statement of Financial Activities when received. Other income relates to a return of Stowage. ## 1.3 Expenditure Recognition 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 settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and all amounts include attributable VAT which is irrecoverable. Grants payable are payments made to third parties in the furtherance of the charitable objective of the charity. Expenditure on grants is recognised when the payment is approved by the trustees. (12) ## **SIR JOHN EVELYN’S CHARITY** ## **NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS** ## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 (Contd)** ## 1.4 Tangible Fixed Assets and Depreciation Tangible fixed assets are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost of each asset over its expected useful life. The rates used are as follows: Fixtures, fittings & equipment 15% straight line ## 1.5 Fixed Asset Investments Investments are a form of basic financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction value and subsequently measured at their fair value as at the balance sheet date. The Statement of Financial Activities includes net gains and losses arising on revaluation and disposals throughout the year net of investment management costs. The portfolio investments are valued using the closing quoted market price given to the charity by investment advisers. ## 1.6 Realised Gains and Losses All gains and losses are taken to the Statement of Financial Activities as they arise. Realised gains and losses on investments are calculated as the difference between sale proceeds and their opening carrying value or their purchase value if acquired subsequent to the first day of the financial year. Unrealised gains and losses are calculated as the difference between the fair value at the year end and their carrying value. Realised and unrealised investment gains and losses are combined in the Statement of Financial Activities. ## 1.7 Funds Structure The funds of the charity consist of an Endowment Fund and an Income Reserve Fund. The Endowment Fund relates to monies which have been given to the Charity in trust with the restriction that they are held as capital with the income generated from them to be used for the purposes of the Charity. The income is transferred to the income reserve each year. The Income Reserve Fund relates to income which is available to meet the general objectives of the Charity. These funds are unrestricted funds which are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in the furtherance of the general objectives of the Charity and which have not been designated for other purposes. Unrestricted funds include designated funds where the trustees, at their discretion, have created a fund for a specific purpose. ## 1.8 Debtors Debtors are recognised at the settlement amount due after any trade discounts offered. Prepayments are valued at the amount prepaid net of any trade discounts due. ## 1.9 Cash at bank and in hand Cash at bank and cash in hand includes cash and short term highly lucrative assets with a short maturity of 3 months or less from the date of acquisition or opening of the deposit or similar account. (13) **SIR JOHN EVELYN’S CHARITY** **NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS** ## **FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2022 (Contd)** ## 2. LEGAL STATUS OF THE CHARITY The charity is unincorporated and was funded by a Deed of Gift dated 27 March 1749 and has been governed by a scheme of the commissioners since 7 April 1992. |3.
