## Chair’s introduction 

I am delighted to introduce the Annual Report of the Trustees for the financial year to 5 April 2025. It is exciting to report that the Foundation has made grant awards and social investments this year of almost £140 million, a record figure. 

Since we started 67 years ago, we have doubled our donations every five to six years, a growth trajectory we are proud of. This year’s grant awards take the Foundation’s total to nearly £1.7 billion since it was established by my grandfather in 1958. 

We are steadfastly here for the long-term, supported as we are by our permanent endowment which is largely comprised of our 46% indirect shareholding in Associated British Foods plc. We strongly hold the view that the model of business ownership that underpins our endowment is a force for good, though we appreciate there are other excellent models that are different to ours. 

This model of business ownership established by our grandfather was very deliberate in its intention to build for the long-term and it was created with a strong sense of personal responsibility and community, which we still value. We believe he would have been pleased with how his vision has developed since, and we aim to continue his values and objectives in the work we do today. 

We respect the skill and hard work of the businesses that generated the Foundation’s record cash income in the year of over £155 million, in the same way that we 

admire and respect the talented people across the country in the charitable sector. Our aim is to enable those with the best understanding of society’s needs to tell us their plans and objectives so that we can listen and work with them in a flexible way. 

We don’t believe in imposing our point of view on others but rather in being responsive to those with excellent ideas and plans. This deliberate and pragmatic strategy enables us to be agile and to ensure that our income is spent on good work and not on supporting a cumbersome infrastructure. 

Our job as Trustees and stewards is to remain engaged and up to date, to ensure the Foundation continues to support good work and people, and to scan the horizon to ensure we can respond and adapt to changes in society’s needs. With this context, I am proud to note that this year we made a not-for-profit social investment of £10 million in addition to our grant awards, a step to respond to charities’ demand for affordable loan financing. 

I’d like to thank our knowledgeable and dedicated staff and especially Flora Craig, who stepped into the role of Interim Director. We welcome Clare Gough who joined us as Director in May 2025. 

We are also thankful for the thousands of charities we have the privilege to work with and we greatly appreciate what they do. 

Sir Guy H Weston Chair of the Trustees

4  Report and accounts of the Trustees · 2025 



## Trustees’ report 

## Accounting policies 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies set out in the notes to the accounts and comply with the charity’s governing document, 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 published on 16 July 2014 (FRS102). 

## Structure, governance and management 

## Structure 

The operation of the Foundation is governed by a Trust Deed dated 10 October 1958. 

Under the terms of the Trust Deed, the investment in the Wittington Investments Limited group of companies forms the permanent capital endowment of the Foundation and the Trustees may not dispose of that investment in whole or in part except by a unanimous vote of all the Trustees. 

At 5 April 2025, the Foundation owned 79.2% of Wittington Investments Limited, a company registered in England. Wittington Investments Ltd is the ultimate holding company of Associated British Foods plc (‘ABF’), which is listed on the London Stock Exchange. Via its shareholding in Wittington Investments Limited, the Foundation owns 46.0% of ABF; as required by UK Listing Rules, this shareholding is subject to a Relationship Agreement entered into by the Trustees of the Foundation, Wittington and ABF. Other subsidiaries of Wittington Investments Limited include Fortnum and Mason plc and Heal’s plc. 

## Governance and management 

In accordance with the Trust Deed, after the death of Mr W Garfield Weston and his  wife, 

their descendants became Trustees. The number of Trustees is limited to ten but must be at least five. If the number of Trustees drops below five, new Trustees fall to be appointed from among the lineal descendants of W Garfield Weston. 

Being family members, incoming Trustees are aware of the aims and objectives of the Foundation and the manner in which the Trustees carry out their responsibilities. Nearly all of the Trustees are on the board of other charitable entities either in the UK, the United States or Canada. The Foundation is a member of the Foundations Forum and the Association of Charitable Foundations and the Trustees receive charity sector updates from both their Secretary, a practising lawyer with expertise in the charity sector, and from their auditors UHY Hacker Young LLP. This ensures that the Trustees are well placed to keep up to date with developments in charity practice and regulations. 

The Trustees are directly responsible for the management of the Foundation and hold regular meetings in order to consider grant applications for £100,000 or more and to ratify smaller grants which have been awarded since their previous meeting. Additional meetings are scheduled as required to deal with any time-sensitive funding requests. The initial processing of grant applications is dealt with by an experienced team and every funding decision is made by at least one of the Trustees. The Trustees also actively participate in meetings with, and visits to, applicants. The Trustees hold an annual meeting in order to review and approve the Annual Report and Accounts and to carry out a formal annual review of performance against the Foundation’s aims, objectives and policies as well as the performance of its investments over the year. 

Key management personnel, in charge of directing and controlling the Foundation and in charge of operating the Foundation on a day-to-day basis, comprise the board of Trustees and the Director respectively. 

**Garfeld Weston Foundation  5** 



All Trustees give of their time freely and no trustee remuneration was paid in the year. Details of Trustee expenses and related party transactions are disclosed in note 5 and 7. In accordance with the Trust’s policy, Trustees are required to disclose all relevant interests and register them with the Company Secretary and to withdraw from decisions where a conflict of interest arises. 

The Director’s remuneration is reviewed annually by the Chair of Trustees and is also benchmarked with grant-making charities of a similar size to ensure that the remuneration set is fair and not out of line with that of generally similar roles. 

## Risk management and policies 

The Trustees are satisfied that appropriate policies, protection, systems and checks remain in place in order to mitigate exposure to major risks and to ensure that the Foundation operates in accordance with ethical and environmental guidelines and protections. The Director and Secretary regularly review the Foundation’s risk register; the risk register is reviewed with the Trustees at their Annual Meeting. The principal risks include: investment performance; breaches of IT security; breaches of financial controls; fraudulent applications; conflicts of interest; and reputational risks relating to the Foundation’s relationship with the underlying trading activities of companies held through Wittington Investments Limited. Key controls have been identified for each principal risk area as follows: 

_Investment performance_ The Trustees regularly review the performance of the underlying assets and their shareholding in the Wittington Investments Limited group and receive reports directly from those who are managing the businesses. The nonWittington investments are also managed in accordance with an investment policy which seeks to achieve an appropriate balance of risk and return. 

_Breaches of IT security_ The IT system and security measures, including authorised signatories, are regularly updated and reviewed and all grant applicants are screened by a skilled grants administration team. 

_Breaches of financial controls_ Bank mandates specifying authorised signatories, segregation of duties and financial limits are regularly reviewed and maintained. 

_Fraudulent applications_ Registered charity status, financial statements and bank statements are independently validated for all grants awarded prior to any transfer of funds. 

_Conflicts of interest_ The Trustees maintain a documented Conflict of Interest policy which encompasses both their grant-making decisions and (where relevant) their roles as directors of Wittington group companies. 

_Reputation_ Members of the Trustee board are directors of Wittington group companies, enabling them to be fully apprised of events which might give rise to reputational risk. 

_Ethical and environment_ The Trustees have oversight of the ethical and environmental practices of the Wittington group companies as well as those of their independent investment managers. In relation to its staff secondees, the Foundation adheres to the policies of Wittington Investments Limited and Associated British Foods with respect to the Modern Slavery Act and corporate responsibility. For more details see - - www.wittington investments.co.uk/wp content/uploads/ModernSlavery HumanTraffckingStatement2023.pdf www.abf.co.uk/responsibility 

_Equity, Diversity and Inclusion_ Addressing disadvantages and ‘levelling the playing field’ for all has been a central theme of the Foundation for over six decades as the Foundation values diversity in its widest sense. The Foundation aims to be accessible, transparent and straightforward in its approach to grant-making and actively 

6  Report and accounts of the Trustees · 2025 



supports charities which in turn support diverse groups and communities, including those suffering discrimination in all its forms. 

_Safeguarding_ The Trustees have a safeguarding policy which is aimed at protecting their own staff secondees as well as vulnerable beneficiaries. The Trustees also require grant applicants to confirm that they have appropriate safeguarding policies in place to protect their staff, volunteers and beneficiaries. 

## Income and grant-making aims and objectives 

The Trust Deed contains broad charitable objects which allow the Trustees, at their discretion, to pay or apply the income and (subject to certain restrictions) the expendable capital of the Trust Fund to, or for, the benefit of any charitable bodies, trusts, associations, institutions or organisations. 

Despite continuing challenges to the global economy total cash income for the year rose to just over £155 million (2024: £110 million). The Trustees have once again been able to draw on this increase in income to make total grants and social investments of just under £140 million in support of 2,967 appeals (2024: £101 million in support of 1,797 appeals). The total outstanding forward commitments at the end of the financial year were £84 million as compared with just over £63 million in 2024. Commitments consist of future payments of £32 million (2024: £27 million) due to charities under existing multi-year grant arrangements, and pledges of just under £33 million (2024: £36 million) that require charities to fulfil specific prerequisite obligations. 

The Trustees were pleased to be able to make some substantial pledges including £5 million for the restoration of Birmingham’s Botanical Gardens, and grants including £1 million over three years to the Parkinson’s UK, to deliver specialist care through their Parkinson’s nurse programme, and 

£300,000 to the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra towards their Participate programme. The Trustees were pleased to continue to support charities’ core costs, which can be challenging for them to raise, and to support vital frontline charities that are supporting communities across the UK. In addition, the Trustees were pleased to make a not-for-profit social investment of £10 million in addition to grant expenditure, a step by the Foundation to respond to charities’ demand for affordable loan financing.  See full list of grants made for more details. 

## Grant-making policy 

The Foundation continues to accept only applications from UK registered charities. No applications from individuals are considered and the Trustees do not typically fund projects outside the UK, nor do they fund animal welfare charities, unless for the purpose of supporting a specific environmental project or where to do so assists with other charitable purposes, such as providing assistance for those with disabilities. 

The Trustees’ aim is to keep the application process as simple and streamlined as possible. Step-by-step guidelines as to how to make a grant application (more than 98% of which are now submitted online), together with helpful details of the criteria which are taken into consideration when assessing applications and the information which should be submitted with an application, are available on the Foundation’s website www.garfeldweston.org 

These guidelines are also published in Welsh (although applications from Welsh charities must still be made in English). All applications are considered on an individual basis; the Trustees do not consider funding requests made within a minimum of 12 months of the outcome of a previous application but, in relation to funding for core and project costs, they will consider providing funds to be spread over a period of years. Whenever possible, visits and/or 

Garfield Weston Foundation  7 



meetings are made by Trustees and/or the Director or one of the other members of the Foundation’s grants team in order to gain a better understanding of applicants’ requirements. Regular contact is maintained with recipients of grants for monitoring purposes, while also taking care to minimise the reporting burden on the recipient charities. 

In order to provide further transparency in the grant-making process, the Foundation publishes its grants through 360Giving. It also commissions independent reviews of grant-giving initiatives in order to assess their effectiveness and to improve the experience for both successful and unsuccessful applicants. These findings are published and shared openly and made accessible on the website. 

## Public benefit 

The Trustees have complied with section 2(1)(b) of the Charities Act 2011, having due regard to the Charity Commission’s guidance on public benefit when reviewing the Foundation’s aims and objectives, when setting the grant-making policy and in making awards. 

## Achievements and performance 

Despite the current economic uncertainty, Wittington Investments Limited has managed to increase its dividend payments to the Foundation so that the Foundation has been able to provide grant funding of nearly £130 million across a broad range of charitable purposes at a time when the sector, and those whom it supports, continue to be in need. 

Some of the valuable charities and projects which have been funded by the Foundation are described in more detail in the case studies from page 13. 

## Investment performance 

The Trustees are satisfied with the performance of the Foundation’s financial investments. 

The Trustees are satisfied that the investment structure represented by the Wittington group of companies (which was contributed by Garfield W Weston to the Foundation in 1958) remains a sustainable long-term model, particularly in terms of providing a regular and reliable income stream to enable the Foundation to fulfil its charitable purposes. 

The value of the Wittington group of companies (which is heavily influenced by the share price of Associated British Foods) continues to fluctuate in line with equity markets generally, but the Trustees remain confident that any such fluctuations will not have a lasting effect on the Foundation’s ability to provide support to grant applicants. 

As at 5 April 2025, the Rathbone portfolio was valued at over £73.2 million (2024: £76.8 million). The five year annualised returns (net of fees) of 7.0% per annum were below the portfolio return target of RPI plus 4% (10.5%), but the Trustees recognise the challenges posed by this target in the current period of inflation. 

Moreover, the portfolio performed in line with the ARC (Asset Risk Consultants) Charity Steady Growth Index which returned 6.9% per annum over the same period. The annual income distributions to the Foundation from the Rathbone portfolio totalled £1.6 million (2024: £1.7 million). 

The Oxford University Endowment Management (OUem) fund offers an alternative form of investment in a broad range of asset classes, focusing on real returns in excess of inflation and therefore fits well with the Trustees’ target return for financial investments. As at 5 April 2025, the Foundation’s investment in the fund was valued at £27.1 million (2024: £25.7 million). The five-year annualised return for the fund to 31 March 2025 was 9.4% per annum – also below the portfolio return target of RPI plus 4% (10.5%). 

The value of the Foundation’s investment in the Savills’ Charities Property Fund was 

8  Report and accounts of the Trustees · 2025 



£5.78 million as at 5 April 2025 (2024: £5.65 million), with an income yield of 4%. 

The Trustees are satisfied with the performance of the Foundation’s social impact investments. As at 5 April 2025, its investment in Social and Sustainable Capital Trust was valued at £20 million (2024: £nil), with 7,000 vulnerable tenants housed to date in 607 properties purchased by 20 borrower charities. 

Further analysis of the financial and social impact investment assets can be found in Note 9 to the Financial Statements. 

A copy of Wittington Investments Limited’s accounts for the year to 14 September 2024 can be obtained from Companies House. 

## Financial review 

In accordance with the required accounting policy, grants are recognised in the statement of financial activities when approved by the Trustees and communicated to the recipients, irrespective of the future period over which payments are to be made, and the obligations outstanding at the yearend are recognised as creditors. 

The Foundation does not currently actively fundraise and so the requirements of section 13 of the Charities (Protection and Social Investment) Act 2016, which requires that the Trustees provide a statement on specific areas of their fundraising, do not apply. 

## Costs 

These continue to be very low in relation to the levels of income and grants made and are kept under review by the Director and Trustees to ensure they remain lean as a proportion of grant expenditure. 

## Reserves 

The Trustees’ policy is to maintain reserves of approximately 50% of the Foundation’s annual income bearing in mind the general timing of income receipts, their general 

pattern of giving and the current economic climate. At £70.1 million (2024: £32.1 million), total income reserves at the end of the year represented 42% of the 

Foundation’s income in the year – below the Trustees’ 50% policy – and this will be taken into account when assessing levels of grantmaking for the following financial year. 

## Investment objectives 

The Trustees’ investment objectives in relation to their non-Wittington group assets as set out in the policy statement are to preserve the ‘real’ (i.e. inflation-adjusted) value of its financial investments. This involves adopting a relatively conservative investment strategy, investing in a balanced portfolio without geographical, currency or sector restriction, subject to the terms of a Charity Commission Order dated 19 September 2001. The primary benchmark for investment performance remains at RPI plus 4% over a rolling three-year period, although comparison is also made on an annual basis with the ARC (Asset Risk Consultants) Charity Steady Growth Index for Rathbone and, in the case of OUem, the MSCI All Country World Index. 

The Trustees are satisfied that the two investment managers have suitable policies in place regarding their stock selection to ensure that this complies with the latest ESG practices and they continue to keep this under review. The Trustees’ principal financial investment, namely Associated British Foods plc, is a highly diversified global company with an extensive and practical approach to responsible business. 

The Trustees have a direct line of sight into this business, making the Foundation’s approach to responsible investment more transparent and with a higher degree of clarity than other models might afford. The Trustees’ financial objectives in relation to their social impact investments are to preserve their ‘nominal’ (i.e. non inflationadjusted) value in order to allow the capital to be redeployed once the social impact is achieved. This involves a strategy of 

Garfield Weston Foundation  9 



investing alongside foundations with similar financial objectives; of selecting investments which have direct line of sight to social impact; and of mitigating the transfer of risk to borrowers by ensuring that the investments are secured against tangible assets. 

the charity for that period. In preparing these financial statements, the Trustees are required to: 

- select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently 

- observe the methods and principles in the Charities SORP 

## Plans for future periods 

Rising levels of inflation continue to have a significant impact on all areas of the sector, but with particular significance for charities which support the most vulnerable in our society as well as for those undertaking capital projects. The Foundation will continue to do its best to react to the changing needs of the charitable sector and to provide support where it is most needed and can be utilised most effectively to make a difference. 

The Trustees will continue to maintain their ability to respond promptly and effectively to the requests in support of a broad range of charitable causes, relying upon the consistent performance of the Foundation’s endowment and upon prudent management of its income reserves. 

## Trustees’ responsibilities for the financial statements 

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees’ Annual Report 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 

- make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent 

- state whether applicable accounting standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements 

- prepare the accounts on a going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the charity will continue in business 

The Trustees are responsible for maintaining sufficient accounting records which disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the charity and which enable them to ensure that the accounts comply with the Charities Act 2011, the Charity (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 and the provisions of the Trust Deed. 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.

## Director’s report 

In 2024–2025, the Garfield Weston Foundation delivered a record level of funding to charities, with over £129 million awarded to almost 3,000 organisations across the country, in addition to £10 million in social investments to strengthen the sector in other ways. I joined the Foundation after the end of this financial year, in May 2025, so these impressive figures are down to the hard work of my valued colleagues. They reflect the success of the Foundation’s endowment model of business ownership in generating increased returns for the Foundation to distribute. The grants awarded respond to the substantial need faced by the charitable sector, as well as the quality of the projects charities are leading. 

The Foundation admires the dedication and commitment of our charity partners to make such a positive difference within their communities. We are particularly conscious of the extra challenges that charities are facing today with pressures both from abroad and at home and an increasingly difficult financial landscape. We could not do our work without them and thank them for their hard work and resilience in these challenging times. Within this context, the Foundation is pleased to be able to remain steadfast in our support for the sector, building on our history of 67 years of grantmaking. We remain very much ‘open for 

business’ and keen to support charities the length and breadth of the UK, from the small, grassroots charities to the large, national organisations, and across a wide variety of projects, from the tried and tested to innovative new approaches. 

With over 2,900 grants made during the year, we can only highlight a small selection in this report. This year, we have picked out examples that we hope give a taste of the breadth of initiatives we support, across a full spectrum of sectors up and down the country. However, each grant represents the work of a dedicated team and we are delighted to list – as we do each year – every charity to whom we have made a grant. 

In addition to our charity partners, I would like to thank the team at the Foundation who have worked so hard to deliver this impact – the Trustees who bring great experience and insight to each decision, and the small, professional team of staff who apply real care to all applicants. In particular I would like to thank Flora Craig, who has led the team as Interim Director throughout the year. 

I am delighted to join the Foundation team and look forward to working with our charity partners to deliver even greater impact in the year to come – a year in which we can see that the need remains acute. 

Clare Gough Director (joined 19 May 2025)

In2ScienceUK 

## In2scienceUK 

In2scienceUK is a social mobility charity dedicated to helping young people from low socioeconomic and underrepresented backgrounds to access education and careers in science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM). The charity aims to improve access to better-paid jobs and boost inclusion within the UK STEM sector – 80% of its participants are the first in their families to pursue higher education and 65% 

The Garfield Weston Foundation’s generous grant towards In2scienceUK’s core costs has been pivotal in helping us continue to deliver transformative STEM opportunities for young people from the UK’s lowest income households. By funding the vital backbone of our organisation, the Foundation has ensured that we have the capacity to deliver lifechanging STEM experiences. 

Stephen Hancock, CEO 

are female. The charity’s programmes include in-person work placements, mentoring, skills training and research placements, and careers support for young professionals from disadvantaged backgrounds transitioning into STEM. 

The charity has developed strong relationships with university and industry partners and could demonstrate a broad range of funding sources. The Trustees were delighted to award a core cost grant of £150,000 over two years to help In2ScienceUK increase its reach. 

## O Ddrws i Ddrws 

O Ddrws i Ddrws (From Door to Door) is one of the thousands of local organisations providing vital support to local people that the Trustees value. O Ddrws i Ddrws is a community transport charity that operates on the Llyn peninsula, a remote area in Wales far from services such as hospitals, GPs and even shops. Many people cannot afford their own vehicle or are unable to access the limited public transport due to age, illness or disability; without O Ddrws i Ddrws, which also organises social activities and events, many people would be isolated.

## Streetbikes 

We’ve made it work for the past 20-plus years with immense gratitude to the Garfield Weston Foundation for its indispensable help to deliver a vital service that’s experiencing everincreasing demand. 

Wil Parry, Project Manager 

Last year, O Ddrws i Ddrws and its volunteer drivers provided over 4,200 journeys for almost 7,700 passengers. 

The organisation provided compelling case studies that demonstrated the impact of its work and a good range of income sources including earned income, local donations and grants from trusts and public sources. The Trustees were happy to make a grant of £20,000 to support the charity’s core costs. 

Streetbikes delivers inclusive and accessible cycling activities in Kirklees, West Yorkshire. Its twice-weekly sessions take place with a large range of adapted bikes so that anyone can attend regardless of age or ability, supported by the charity’s volunteers. Streetbikes works in partnership with schools, care providers and local charities to ensure they are reaching people who would otherwise face barriers to participating due to health issues, disability or poverty, reaching over 5,000 people last year. Streetbikes also refurbishes donated bikes and sells them to the community at an affordable price which generates a vital source of income and enables the charity to give bikes as gifts to local children each Christmas. 

Streetbikes included a case study from a local Dementia support group that demonstrates how the sessions enabled many of its users to cycle for the first time in

40 years with multiple mental, physical and social benefits. It also included details of an impact report conducted by a university partner that shows that Streetbikes’ work is unparalleled in the UK in terms of its ability to provide regular and inclusive cycling opportunities for people of all abilities. The Trustees were delighted to make a core cost grant of £20,000 over two years to this local, high impact charity. 

The Foundation supports a wide range of environmental charities working on differing scales, from a global to hyperlocal focus. Bright Green Nature is an example of a small, mainly volunteer run local nature restoration charity in the Scottish Borders. Big Green Nature was gifted Selkirk Deer Park, a biodiverse habitat which the charity is restoring. It is also a base for its research and education work, connecting people of all ages with hands-on ecological restoration, practical conservation skills, and confidence building activities. 

Its microgrant programme helps people to restore nature where they live, including the creation of wildflower gardens, improvements to tree orchards, hedgerows, wildlife ponds and school grounds. The Trustees appreciated the practical nature of the charity’s work and what it achieves on a relatively lean budget, and were happy to make a core cost grant of £8,000.

The support of Garfield Weston has enabled us to expand our community rewilding programmes, restore threatened habitats, and inspire young people to lead nature recovering in their own communities. Our grant is helping us to build a powerful, grassroots rewilding movement across the Scottish Boarders.

## Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra 

Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra (BSO) is the largest cultural organisation in the South West, based at the Lighthouse, Poole. Last year, over 144,000 people experienced its performances, either in person in the region’s towns, cities and isolated costal communities, or online via their digital concerts. A further 47,000 engaged with BSO Participate, the orchestra’s award winning outreach programme that takes pioneering music projects into schools, community groups, care homes and healthcare settings in over 200 locations across the region. 

The Trustees appreciated the breadth of the orchestra’s outreach work and its efforts to diversify its income in anticipation of reduced statutory funding. The Trustees were delighted to make a grant of £300,000 over three years to support BSO Participate, enabling the orchestra to plan with confidence for following years. 

## Hull Minster 

Hull Minster has been a place of Christian worship and hospitality for over 700 years. The Minster is not only a church but provides a wide range of community activities and events aimed at low-income families, and a range of volunteering opportunities. Its café provides support and meals to up to 200 people each week, its choral and music programme provides music workshops to over 1,000 young people from local schools in deprived communities, and its outreach programme supports over 2,000 children, young people and adults. In total, the Minster welcomes over 100,000 visitors each year. 

The Trustees appreciated the wide range of local partnerships the Minster has developed to ensure it is reaching those most in need and its clear fundraising plan to meet the costs of its outreach work, giving them confidence to make a grant of £50,000 over two years.

The Foundation’s grant will supercharge our learning, participation and creative-health programme for three years: from schools’ concerts and mentoring for our young musicians, to a growing network of recovery and wellbeing orchestras. I’m especially delighted that, with the Foundation’s help, we can expand our work in hospitals into new counties, taking the healing power of music to the people who need it most.

## Empire Fighting Chance 

Empire Fighting Chance (EFC) uses the power of non-contact boxing to fight the impact of social disadvantage and inequality for young people in over 40 locations across the UK. In total, EFC works with 10,000 young people each year who are experiencing poor mental health and those who engage in destructive behaviours including violence and self-harm and who feel excluded from many mainstream services. 

Despite considerable growth over the past few years, the charity was hampered by its physical base. To address this, EFC applied to the Foundation for its capital project to 

Our grant from Garfield Weston enabled us to transform our boxing gym. Expanding The Mill’s footprint is going to be game changing for us. We’ll be able to work with hundreds more young people each year, improve the quality of our psychologically charged boxing programmes and create a vital community hub in inner city Bristol.

build a two-storey extension to its Bristol base. The charity had planning permission in place and had raised over 50% of the total project cost when it applied, and could demonstrate how the charity would absorb the additional running costs of its expanded footprint. The Trustees were happy to make a major grant of £250,000 to help EFC with this capital project. 

Bangladesh Youth Movement 

## Bangladesh Youth Movement 

Bangladesh Youth Movement (BYM) was established in 1976 to support young people from Bangladeshi communities and, over the years, has expanded to support people of all ages from any ethnically diverse community. Tower Hamlets is characterised by extreme deprivation, high levels of child poverty and is an area where 54% of residents are from ethnically diverse communities. The charity delivers a wide range of support including a drop-in advice service, a targeted debt support project, a weekly youth club, a Saturday school, and a women and girls project. 

BYM partners with a wide range of local organisations including Job Centres, GPs, family centres and tenants associations and could demonstrate the impact of its work as a result of its monitoring and evaluation. The charity provided a clear breakdown of its anticipated expenditure and its income broken down by source including statutory funding, earned income, community fundraising and trusts. The Trustees appreciated the practical support the charity provides and how it has adapted to respond to local need, and were happy to make a core cost grant of £30,000 over two years. 

18  Report and accounts of the Trustees · 2025 



Without grant funding, people who are excluded from community services on an ongoing basis would quite simply have no-one to turn to, losing their health, money and homes; BYM is a sanctuary in the most deprived of areas, thanks to the Garfield Weston Foundation.

The Foundation’s generous grant is transforming access to specialist care for people with Parkinson’s across the UK. By funding, training and supporting new Parkinson’s nurses and allied health professionals, the Foundation is helping to ensure thousands more people receive the lifechanging support they need to live well with the condition. Together, we’re creating a future where no one faces Parkinson’s alone.

## Parkinson’s UK 

Parkinson’s UK is the leading charity dedicated to supporting and empowering the 166,000 people living with Parkinson’s in the UK, ensuring access to high-quality care, and driving the search for better treatments and a cure. The charity identified that 20% of people with the disease still have no or limited access to specialist nursing and, with the number of people affected by this neurological condition projected to increase by 20% in the next five years, launched a £12 million appeal to seed fund at least 20 

nurses and 30 allied health professionals over four years. 

When Parkinson’s UK applied to the Foundation, it had secured over £5 million and could clearly show what grants of varying levels would achieve; every £100,000 would deliver around 3,000 hours of vital specialist care. The Trustees were delighted to make a grant of £1 million over three years to help the charity achieve its target.

## Dacorum Heritage Trust 

Dacorum Heritage Trust is an accredited museum and archive for the Borough of Dacorum, Hertfordshire. It cares for over 131,000 items from prehistoric hand axes and Roman paw prints preserved in roof tiles, to 20th century artwork, and provides access to its collection via creative engagement opportunities within the local community, such as pop-up exhibitions and handling sessions. When Garfield Weston established the Foundation in 1958, he endowed it with shares in the family business, Wittington Investments. Today, Wittington Investments’ largest investment is in Associated British Foods (ABF) which makes some of the bestknown food brands in the UK, including Ovaltine. In 2022, ABF transferred the ownership of the Ovaltine Collection, over 

10,000 items relating to the history of the production of Ovaltine at its former factory in nearby Kings Langley, to Dacorum Heritage Trust, making it one of the largest archives owned by the trust. 

Dacorum Heritage Trust had plans to conserve fragile artwork and to digitise damaged advertising film, to record the memories of former Ovaltine employees and to develop a public engagement programme. Dacorum Heritage Trust presented a very clear proposal with detailed timescales, budgets and anticipated outcomes and the Trustees were delighted to make a project grant of £90,000 to help conserve a part of local Herfordshire – and ABF’s – heritage. 

As we work more on the Ovaltine Collection, we realise how important an employer and supportive of the community the Ovaltine factory was to the area. The continued support of the Garfield Weston Foundation means that we can continue to care for and share the wonderful artwork of the Ovaltine brand.

SafeLives<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br>


## SafeLives 

SafeLives is the UK-wide charity working to end domestic abuse, for everyone, for good. It works with government and organisations across the UK to transform the response to domestic abuse (DA), a pervasive and complex issue that over 2 million people in the UK experience each year. SafeLives has a track record for innovating and placing victims of abuse at the heart of its approach, holds the largest dataset on DA in the UK and is the largest single provider of specialised DA training. 

SafeLives aims to continue to influence large-scale systemic change and clearly communicated their priority areas in their application. The charity has a varied range of income sources, however, similar to most charities, requires unrestricted funding in order to adapt to need. SafeLives was clear 

about its future strategy and the Trustees were happy to make a three-year grant of £450,000 to support the charity’s important work. 

In addition to the systems-wide work that SafeLives undertakes, the Foundation made 79 grants in the last financial year to local organisations working to support victims of DA as well as to deliver preventative education programmes and train professionals in how to work in a traumainformed way. The Trustees continue to value these vital, local support services in the knowledge of the lifeline they provide to many vulnerable people. Grant recipients span the UK and include Perthshire Women’s Aid, Cornwall Refuge Trust, Crossroads Derbyshire, Birmingham Crisis Centre, Women’s Aid Armagh Down and Phoenix Domestic Abuse Services in Wales.

## Independent auditors’ report to the Trustees of the Garfield Weston Foundation 

## Opinion 

We have audited the financial statements of Garfield Weston Foundation (the charity) for the year ended 5 April 2025 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance Sheet, the Cashflow Statement and notes to the financial statements, including significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including FRS 102 The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). 

In our opinion the financial statements: 

- give a true and fair view of the state of the charity’s affairs as at 5 April 2025 and of its incoming resources and application of resources for the year then ended 

- have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice 

- have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 

## Basis for opinion 

We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (UK) (ISA (UK)) and applicable law. Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements section of our report. We are independent of the charity in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. 

## Conclusions relating to going concern 

In auditing the financial statements, we have concluded that the Trustees’ use of the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statement is appropriate. 

Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern for a period of at least twelve months from when the financial statements are authorised for issue. 

Our responsibilities and the responsibilities of the Trustees with respect to going concern are described in the relevant sections of this report. 

## Other information 

The other information comprises the information included in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon. The Trustees are responsible for the other information contained within the financial statements. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and, except to the extent otherwise explicitly stated in our report, we do not express any form of assurance conclusion thereon. 

24  Report and accounts of the Trustees · 2025 



Our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the course of the audit, or otherwise appears to be materially misstated. If we identify such material inconsistencies or apparent material misstatements, we are required to determine whether there is a material misstatement in the financial statements or a material misstatement of the other information. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard. 

## Matters on which we are required to report by exception 

In the light of the knowledge and understanding of the charity and its environment obtained in the course of the audit, we have not identified material misstatements in the Trustees’ report. We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Charities Act 2011 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: 

- adequate accounting records have not been kept, or returns adequate for our audit have not been received from branches not visited by us 

- the financial statements are not in agreement with the accounting records and returns 

- certain disclosures of Trustees’ remuneration specified by law are not made 

- we have not received all the information and explanations we require for our audit 

## Responsibilities of Trustees 

As explained more fully in the Trustees’ responsibilities statement set out on page 10, the Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view, and for such internal control as the Trustees determine is necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. 

In preparing the financial statements, the Trustees are responsible for assessing the charity’s ability to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the Trustees either intend to liquidate the charity or to cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so. 

## Auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements 

We have been appointed as auditor under section 151 of the Charities Act 2011 and report in accordance with the Act and relevant regulations made or having effect thereunder. 

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with ISAs (UK) will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements. 

Details of the extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud and non-compliance with laws and regulations are set out below. 

Garfield Weston Foundation  25 



A further description of our responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements is located on the Financial Reporting Council’s website at: www.frc.org.uk/auditorsresponsibilities This description forms part of our auditor’s report. 

## Extent to which the audit was considered capable of detecting irregularities including fraud 

Irregularities, including fraud, are instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations. We design procedures in line with our responsibilities, outlined above, to detect material misstatements in respect of irregularities, including fraud. The extent to which our procedures are capable of detecting irregularities, including fraud is detailed below. 

Based on our understanding of the charity and the industry in which it operates, we identified that the principal risks of non-compliance with laws and regulations related to the acts by the charity, which were contrary to applicable laws and regulations including fraud, and we considered the extent to which non-compliance might have a material effect on the financial statements. We also considered those laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the preparation of the financial statements such as the Charities Act 2011. 

We evaluated management’s incentives and opportunities for manipulation of the financial statements (including the risk of override of controls), and determined that the principal risk related to the valuation of the unquoted investment in Wittington Investments Limited (‘Wittington’) of which the Foundation owns 683,073 50p ordinary shares (79.2%). 

The valuation of Wittington requires significant estimation as it is an unquoted company and there is no readily identifiable market price for its shares. Accordingly, the value of the Foundation’s investment has been assessed by the Trustees on the basis of the share of the value of the underling net assets of Wittington attributable to the Foundation’s holding as at 5 April 2025. As Wittington’s financial statements are audited as at 14 September 2024, there is a varying degree of estimation required to assess the net asset value as at 5 April 2025 and therefore there is more potential for misstatement in this area. 

We assessed Management’s valuation methodology and considered whether it was in accordance with the accounting policies of the Foundation, applicable accounting standards and industry practice. Wittington’s principal asset is a majority holding (58.1%) in Associated British Foods plc. Therefore, the value of the Foundation’s investment in Wittington is driven predominantly by the Associated British Foods plc share price as at 5 April 2025. As the shares are listed on the London Stock Exchange, the value of this holding can be determined easily. 

Other audit procedures performed included: review of the financial statement disclosures to underlying supporting documentation to assess compliance with relevant laws and regulations, review of minutes of meetings held by those charged with governance, enquiries of management and testing of journals and evaluating whether there was evidence of bias by the Trustees that represented a risk of material misstatement due to fraud. 

There are inherent limitations in the audit procedures described above and the further removed non-compliance with laws and regulations is from the events and transactions reflected in the financial statements, the less likely we would become aware of it. Also, the risk of not detecting a material misstatement due to fraud is higher than the risk of not detecting one resulting from error, as fraud may involve deliberate concealment by, for example, forgery or intentional misrepresentations, or through collusion.

## Use of our report 

This report is made solely to the charity’s Trustees, as a body, in accordance with Chapter 3 of Part 8 of the Charities Act 2011 and regulations made under section 154 of that Act. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the charity’s Trustees those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the charity and the charity’s Trustees as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

## Notes to the financial statements for the year ended 5 April 2025 

## 1 Accounting policies 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with applicable UK accounting standards (UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice), including Financial Reporting Standard FRS 102 ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland’ (“FRS 102”). In particular, they comply with the Charities Act 2011 and the Statement of Recommended Practice ‘Accounting and Reporting by Charities (the “SORP”). 

The financial statements have been prepared to give a ‘true and fair’ view and have departed from the Charities (Accounts and Report) Regulations 2008 only to the extent required to provide a ‘true and fair’ view. This departure has involved following the Charities SORP (FRS 102). 

Garfield Weston Foundation (‘the Foundation’) constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The financial statements are prepared on the historical cost basis except that certain financial instruments are stated at fair value. 

The financial statements have been prepared in sterling, which is the functional currency of the Foundation. Monetary amounts in these financial statements are rounded to £’000s. 

The particular accounting policies adopted by the Trustees are described below: 

## a Going concern 

After making enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Foundation has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. For this reason they continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the consolidated financial statements. 

Having reviewed the best estimate of future cash flows to October 2026, and having applied reverse stress tests, the possibility that the financial headroom could be exhausted is considered to be extremely remote. The Trustees understand the risks, sensitivities and judgements included in the cash flow forecast and have a high degree of confidence in these cash flows. There is substantial financial headroom between this cash flow forecast and the cash on hand and funding available to the Foundation over the period. 

## b Fund structure 

## Permanent endowment 

The permanent endowment funds comprise the original capital fund, and gains thereto, established to provide income for grant payments in accordance with the objectives of the Foundation. The capital may not be converted into income. The funds are represented by the unquoted investments included in fixed assets. Unrealised gains on revaluation of these investments are credited to the funds. 

## Unrestricted expendable capital 

In accordance with the authority given to the Trustees under an Order of the Charity Commission dated 19 September 2001, £65,747,000 was transferred to an expendable capital fund in relation to which income and capital are distributable at the discretion of the Trustees. £5 million was invested in 2001/02 in the Charities Property Fund and £60 million was invested in 2002/03 with investment managers in balanced portfolios on a discretionary total return basis. Income and investment gains and losses are taken to this 

Garfield Weston Foundation  31 



fund and the amount allocated to income by the Trustees, £1,873,047 (2024: £2,142,625), is shown as a transfer to the income fund. 

## Unrestricted income funds 

The income of the Foundation is expendable at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the objects of the Foundation. Gains on investments held in the income funds are credited to these funds. 

## c Critical accounting estimates and judgements 

In the application of the Foundation’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 assumptions are based on historical experience and other factors that are considered 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 where the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods where the revision affects both current and future periods.The estimates and assumptions which have a significant risk of causing a material adjustment to the carrying amount of assets and liabilities are outlined below: 

## Investment valuation 

The Foundation’s financial investments are stated at market value. Financial investments comprise both quoted and unquoted investments and are initially measured at transaction price, excluding transaction costs, and are subsequently measured at fair value at each reporting date. Changes in fair value are recognised in net income/(expenditure) for the year. Transaction costs are expensed as incurred. Valuations are obtained from investment managers. The Trustees do not believe that there is any inherent uncertainty in the presentation of these amounts, and that in their judgement, market value and fair value may be regarded as identical for the purposes of these accounts. 

Social investments are investments made directly in pursuit of the Foundation’s charitable purposes and are stated at the amount invested less impairment. 

## d Incoming resources 

Dividends are included when received. Interest receivable on fixed interest securities and bank deposits is included on an accruals basis. All incoming resources are recognised once the Charity has entitlement to the resources, it is probable that the resources will be received, and the monetary value of incoming resources can be measured with sufficient reliability. 

## e Resources expended and irrecoverable VAT 

Liabilities are recognised as resources expended as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the Charity to the expenditure. All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. 

Grants awarded are charged in the year when formally awarded by the Trustees and communicated to the recipient irrespective of the period covered by the donation as they are regarded by the Trustees as financial obligations. 

32  Report and accounts of the Trustees · 2025 



Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the category of resources expended, for which it was incurred. 

## f Allocation of overhead and support costs 

Overhead and support costs are allocated first between charitable activity and governance. Overhead and support costs relating to charitable activities have been apportioned based on the value of individual grant awards made as it is considered that more is spent awarding, monitoring and assessing grants of greater value. The allocation of overhead and support costs is analysed in note 5. 

## g Costs of generating funds 

The costs of generating funds consist of investment management fees and commissions. 

## h Charitable activities 

Costs of charitable activities include grants made and an apportionment of overhead and support costs as shown in notes 3, 4 and 5. 

## i Governance costs 

Governance costs comprise all costs involving the public accountability of the Charity and its compliance with regulation and good practice. These costs include costs related to statutory audit and legal fees together with an apportionment of overhead and support costs. 

## j Interest in Wittington Investments Limited 

At 5 April 2025 the Foundation owned 79.2% (2024: 79.2%) of Wittington Investments Limited (‘Wittington’), a company registered in England. Wittington is the ultimate holding company of Associated British Foods plc (‘ABF’), and a wide range of investments including Fortnum & Mason plc and Heal’s plc, one hotel, a real estate portfolio and significant financial investments. ABF is listed on the London Stock Exchange. The Foundation receives its income from Wittington Investments Limited by way of dividends and records its investment in that company at the Trustees’ valuation. 

As the activities of Wittington and its subsidiaries are fundamentally different from the activities of the Foundation, consolidated accounts have not been prepared as the Trustees are of the opinion that the adopted policy gives a true and fair view of the Foundation’s assets and sources of income. Details of the value of the Foundation’s interest in Wittington and its subsidiaries are shown in note 9 to these accounts. The Trustees have agreed this policy of not consolidating the assets and liabilities of Wittington and its subsidiaries with the Charity Commission. 

## k Investments 

Non-current and current financial investments are stated at market value as at the balance sheet date and include cash held for future investment. The statement of financial activities includes the net gains and losses arising on revaluation and disposals throughout the year. Certain bonds are classified as current investments as they are expected to be realised within 12 months of the reporting date. 

Social investments are investments made directly in pursuit of the Foundation’s charitable purposes and are stated at the amount invested less impairment. 

Garfield Weston Foundation  33 



- l 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 sales proceeds and opening market value. Unrealised gains and losses are calculated as the difference between the market value at the year end and opening market value. Realised and unrealised gains are not separated in the Statement of Financial Activities. 

- m Fund accounting 

Details of the nature and purpose of each fund are set out in note 12. 

## n Financial instruments 

Financial assets and financial liabilities are shown in note 8 to these accounts and are recognised when the Foundation becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. 

Financial assets which qualify as basic financial instruments, including trade and other receivables and cash, are subsequently valued at amortised cost and assessed for impairment at the end of each reporting period. 

Other financial assets, including investments, are subsequently valued at fair value. 

Financial liabilities are classified according to the substance of the contractual arrangements entered into. All financial assets and liabilities are initially measured at transaction price including transaction costs, except for those financial assets classified as at fair value through profit or loss, which are initially measured at fair value. If an arrangement constitutes a financing transaction, the financial asset or financial liability is measured at the present value of the future payments discounted at a market rate of interest for a similar debt instrument. 

Financial assets are derecognised only when either the contractual rights to the cash flows from the financial asset expire or are settled or all of the risks and rewards of ownership of the financial asset are substantially transferred to another party. 

Financial liabilities are derecognised only when the obligation specified in the contract is discharged, cancelled or expires. 

Financial investments are stated at market value at the balance sheet date. The market values of the managed portfolios are advised by the portfolio managers. The statement of financial activities includes the net gains and losses arising in revaluation and disposals through the year. 

- Quoted investments comprise publicly quoted, listed securities including shares, bonds and units. Quoted investments are stated at fair value at the balance sheet date. 

- Unquoted investments are valued at the Trustees’ best estimate of fair value as explained in note 9. 

Social investments are investments made directly in pursuit of the Foundation’s charitable purposes and are stated at the amount invested less impairment.

Significant aspects of the grant activity during the year are described on pages 13 to 21 of the Trustees’ report. 

## 4 Analysis of charitable expenditure 

The Charity undertook no direct charitable activities but awarded grants to a number of institutions in furtherance of its charitable activities. As a consequence of supporting charitable organisations, the Foundation achieves public benefit. The Foundation’s grant policy is to accept only appeals from UK registered charities. Registration provides an element of assurance of public benefit, although for charities registered before the implementation of the Charities Act 2006 the public benefit was a presumption.

The managed funds are managed on a discretionary total return basis. 

The charities property fund comprises units in the Savills Charities’ Property Fund. 

## Unlisted investments 

The unlisted investments comprise 683,073 50p ordinary shares (79.2%) of Wittington Investments Limited, an unquoted company, see note 1 (j). 

The business of Wittington is the management of investments in a wide range of assets. As it is an unquoted company there is no readily identifiable market price for its shares. Accordingly, the value of the Foundation’s investments has been assessed by the Trustees on the basis of the share of the value of the underlying net assets of Wittington attributable to the Foundation’s holding. 

At 5 April 2025, Wittington’s principal asset is a holding of 58.1% (2024: 56.2%) of the issued ordinary capital of ABF which is listed on The London Stock Exchange. In assessing the value of the underlying net assets of Wittington, the value of its investment in ABF has been based on the closing price as at 5 April 2025. 

Garfield Weston Foundation  43 



In addition, Wittington holds a wide range of other assets managed in three different business segments: 

- _Retail:_ comprising the 100% ownership of Fortnum & Mason and Heal’s, two long established retailers. 

- _Real estate:_ investing in high-quality investment properties in the retail, office, distribution and hotel sectors across the UK. Wittington also takes strategic positions in selective development opportunities, alongside local partners or sector specialists. 

- _Financial investments:_ investing both directly and via externally managed funds in private equity, private debt and fixed income markets. Other investments are principally composed of liquid investments in short-dated investment grade bonds and listed equities 

The most recent financial year end for Wittington was 14 September 2024. As such, aside from the investment in ABF, Wittington’s remaining investments have been valued using net asset values in the 31 March 2025 management accounts, which are considered to be their fair values. At 5 April 2025, the fair value of Wittington including ABF is considered to be £10.88 billion and the Foundation’s share of this (79.2%) is £8.62 billion. 

The Trustees have no current intention of disposing of the interest in Wittington.

## Permanent endowment 

The permanent endowment funds comprise the original capital fund, and gains thereto, established to provide income for grant payments in accordance with the objectives of the Foundation. The capital may not be converted into income. The funds are represented by the unquoted investments included in fixed assets. Unrealised gains on revaluation of these investments are credited to the funds. 

## Unrestricted expendable capital 

In accordance with the authority given to the Trustees under an Order of the Charity Commission dated 19 September 2001, £65,747,000 was transferred to an expendable capital fund in relation to which income and capital are distributable at the discretion of the Trustees. £5 million was invested in 2001/02 in the Charities Property Fund and £60 million was invested in 2002/03 with investment managers in balanced portfolios on a discretionary total return basis. Income and investment gains and losses are taken to this fund and the amount allocated to income by the Trustees, £1,873,047 (2024: £2,142,625), is shown as a transfer to the income fund. 

## Unrestricted income funds 

The income of the Foundation is expendable at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the objects of the Foundation. Gains on investments held in the income funds are credited to these funds.
