## **THE W A HANDLEY CHARITY TRUST** 

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

The Trustees present their annual report together with the audited financial statements of the Charity for the year 1 April 2020 to 31 March 2021. 

## **Objectives and activities** 

## **a. Policies and objectives** 

The aims of the Trust are to disburse grants to charitable causes in a manner which is in keeping with the philanthropic interests of the settlor, Wilfred Augustine Handley. 

In order to achieve its object for the public benefit, the Trustees prefer to give regular grants and focus principally on charities working for the benefit of the population and environment within Northumberland, Tyne and Wear, Co Durham (including Hartlepool) and Cumbria (including Carlisle). 

Grants are normally made to registered charities (within these counties) but may also be made to national charities operating within or where their work may be expected to be of benefit to these areas. 

In setting objectives and planning for activities, the Trustees have given due consideration to general guidance published by the Charity Commission relating to public benefit, including the guidance 'Public benefit: running a charity (PB2)'. 

## **b. Grant-making policies** 

The Trustees try to follow the wishes and interests of the Trust's founder where this is compatible with the present day needs of the North East. Grants will commonly be in response to appeals in support of welfare for those who are disadvantaged, young, elderly, disabled, as well as maritime and Service causes, education, training and employment opportunities, community benefit, historic and religious buildings, the environment, music and the arts. Grants will be made out of income and not normally out of capital. No change in policy has been introduced during the year. 

The charity does not enter into any contractual obligations; applications are examined on their merits and donations are dependent on income available. The Trust invites those charities in receipt of recurrent grants to renew their applications on a regular basis and such information is reviewed at all trustees meetings and is used to influence consideration of current and future applications. 

Applications must be made in writing, quoting the applicant's official charity number and providing full backup information to Ryecroft Glenton (The Secretary), The W A Handley Charity Trust, 32 Portland Terrace, Newcastle upon Tyne, NE21QP. 

## **Achievements and performance** 

## **a. Main achievements of the Charity** 

The Trust is reliant on the income from its investments to meet its needs. Investment income for the year amounted to £176,927. The net income available for distribution as grants after accounting for non-grant expenditure was £140,171. 

Because of the reduced investment income currently experienced in the present economic climate the trustees released an amount of £130,000 from capital to ensure that the charity could maintain the level of grants at the same level as has been achieved in recent years. 

£264,750 was allocated to grants to institutions. The net expenditure of the charity for the year before the transfer of capital funds was £124,579. This is before accounting for investment costs which are drawn directly

**TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **Achievements and performance (continued)** 

from investment funds. 

The distribution analysis of grants is set out on pages 17 to 20 of the financial statements.  Out of 109 grants, 93 were made on a regular basis and 16 grants were made following examination of and based upon the relative merits of the application. 

## **Financial review** 

## **a. Going concern** 

After making appropriate enquiries, the Trustees have a reasonable expectation that the Charity 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 financial statements. Further details regarding the adoption of the going concern basis can be found in the accounting policies. 

## **b. Reserves policy** 

## **The endowment fund** 

As a grant making trust it is necessary to maintain the expendable endowment fund at a level sufficient to ensure a secure and predictable income flow out of which the grants are to be made. Although the endowment is expendable at the Trustees discretion they take the view that a grant from this source will only be made in exceptional circumstances. 

The quantum of the endowment fund has been taken to be the balance on the trust capital account at 6 April 1981 being the earliest available figure. 

## **The income fund** 

Notwithstanding the current volatility of investment markets, the perceived likelihood of reduced dividends and the ongoing commitments of the Trust, the Trustees current policy is, and for some time has been, to distribute all of the income arising whilst retaining a balance of undistributed income from earlier years to ensure that in the event of a cessation or material fall in the income stream the trust could continue to operate whilst giving grantees due notice of reductions in future grants. 

The Reserves of the charity are represented by the balance of undistributed income at 31 March 2021. The Trustees are of the opinion that this balance of £426,192 remains sufficient for this purpose. 

## **c. Investments policy and performance** 

The Trustees have power in their absolute discretion to make investments and have the same unfettered powers of investment of an absolute beneficial owner. 

In accordance with the Statement of Recommended Practice, all investment assets have been accounted for on a fair value basis arrived at as follows: 

Quoted investments As valued by stockbrokers Properties As valued by the Trustees to reflect property market value within their location.

## **THE W A HANDLEY CHARITY TRUST** 

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **d. Coronavirus** 

The Trustees have endeavoured to maintain usual management and governance processes throughout the period since lockdown measures were imposed on 23 March 2020. 

Accounting and secretarial services are provided by Ryecroft Glenton, whose offices have been subject to a comprehensive Health and Safety Risk Assessment, which has enabled services to the Trust to continue relatively unaffected. Trustee meetings are being held remotely and the Trustees have been able to discuss and action matters arising. 

Whilst financial market movements may give rise to uncertainties about assets valuations, the FTSE 100 index has presently recovered from the lowest point on 23 March 2020. In current circumstances, however, anticipated reduced investment returns will likely continue to have an impact on future grant making. 

## **e. Financial position** 

At the year end, the charity held net current assets of £14,478 along with £411,714 of investment assets within its unrestricted funds that were capable of ready conversion to cash.  This financial position is adequate to enable the Trustees to continue to carry out the charity's grantmaking objectives. 

## **Structure, governance and management** 

## **a. Constitution** 

The W A Handley Charity Trust is a registered charity, number 230435, and is constituted under a Trust deed. 

## **b. Methods of appointment or election of Trustees** 

The management of the Charity is the responsibility of the Trustees who are elected and co-opted under the terms of the Trust deed.

## **THE W A HANDLEY CHARITY TRUST** 

## **TRUSTEES' REPORT (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **Statement of Trustees' responsibilities** 

The Trustees are responsible for preparing the Trustees' 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 & 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 its incoming resources and application of resources, including its income and expenditure, 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 of the Charities SORP (FRS 102); 

- make judgements and accounting estimates that are reasonable and prudent; 

- state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards (FRS 102) have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements; 

- prepare the financial statements on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the Charity will continue in business. 

The Trustees are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the Charity's transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the Charity and enable them to ensure that the financial statements 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. 

## **Disclosure of information to auditor** 

Each of the persons who are Trustees at the time when this Trustees' report is approved has confirmed that: 

- so far as that Trustee is aware, there is no relevant audit information of which the charity's auditor is unaware, and 

- that Trustee has taken all the steps that ought to have been taken as a Trustee in order to be aware of any relevant audit information and to establish that the charity's auditor is aware of that information. 

## **Auditor** 

The auditor, Joseph Miller, has indicated its willingness to continue in office. The designated Trustees will propose a motion reappointing the auditor at a meeting of the Trustees. 

Approved by order of the members of the board of Trustees on 27 January 2022 and signed on their behalf by:

## **THE W A HANDLEY CHARITY TRUST** 

## **INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE W A HANDLEY CHARITY TRUST** 

## **Opinion** 

We have audited the financial statements of The W A Handley Charity Trust (the 'charity') for the year ended 31 March 2021 which comprise the Statement of Financial Activities, the Balance sheetand the related notes, including a summary of significant accounting policies. The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 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 31 March 2021 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; and 

- 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) (ISAs (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 United Kingdom, including the Financial Reporting Council'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 statements 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 Annual report. 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. 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 this gives rise to a material misstatement in the financial statements themselves. 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.

## **THE W A HANDLEY CHARITY TRUST** 

## **INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE W A HANDLEY CHARITY TRUST (CONTINUED)** 

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

We have nothing to report in respect of the following matters where the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 requires us to report to you if, in our opinion: 

- the information given in the Trustees' report is inconsistent in any material respect with the financial statements; or 

- sufficient accounting records have not been kept; or 

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

- 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, the Trustees are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements which 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. 

## **Auditor's responsibilities for the audit of the financial statements** 

We have been appointed as auditor under section 144 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. 

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, discussions with Trustees who are those charged with governance, we considered that the most significant laws and regulations that have a direct impact on the financial statements are FRS 102, the Charities SORP (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011 and UK taxation legislation. 

As part of the engagement team discussion about the susceptibility of the charity’s financial statements to material misstatement due to fraud, we did not identify any areas with an increased risk. 

Our audit procedures were designed to respond to identified risks, including non-compliance with laws and regulations and fraud, which may have a material effect on the financial statements.

## **THE W A HANDLEY CHARITY TRUST** 

## **INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT TO THE MEMBERS OF THE W A HANDLEY CHARITY TRUST (CONTINUED)** 

Our audit procedures included but were not limited to: 

- enquiry of the Trustees and review of any relevant correspondence with legal advisers regarding any instances of non-compliance with laws and regulations and any actual, suspected or alleged fraud; 

- communicating identified laws and regulations and the risks of fraud with our engagement team and remaining alert to any indications of non-compliance or fraud; 

- gaining an understanding of the internal controls established to mitigate risks related to fraud; 

- examining supporting documents for all material balances, transactions and disclosures; 

- review of the minutes of the board of Trustees; 

- review of accounting estimates for Trustee override and bias; 

- analytical procedures to identify any unusual transactions; 

- identifying and testing journal entries. 

Owing to the inherent limitations of an audit, there is an unavoidable risk that some material misstatements of the financial statements may not be detected, even though the audit is properly planned and performed in accordance with the ISAs (UK). 

The potential effects of inherent limitations are particularly significant in the case of misstatement resulting from fraud because fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations or the override of internal controls. 

The primary responsibility for the prevention and detection of irregularities including fraud rests with those charged with governance. 

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. 

## **Use of our report** 

This report is made solely to the charity's trustees, as a body, in accordance with Part 4 of the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008. 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 its trustees, as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed.

## **THE W A HANDLEY CHARITY TRUST** 

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **1. General information** 

The Trust is set up by Trust Deed and is registered with the Charity Commission for England and Wales. It provides grants principally to charities working for the benefit of the population and environment within Northumberland, Tyne and Wear, Co Durham (including Hartlepool) and Cumbria (including Carlisle). The registered address of the office is c/o Ryecroft Glenton, 32 Portland Terrace, Newcastle upon Tyne NE2 1QP. 

## **2. Accounting policies** 

## **2.1 Basis of preparation of financial statements** 

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the Charities SORP (FRS 102) - Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019), the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) and the Charities Act 2011. 

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) published 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 W A Handley Charity Trust meets the definition of a public benefit entity under FRS 102. Assets and liabilities are initially recognised at historical cost or transaction value unless otherwise stated in the relevant accounting policy. 

## **2.2 Going concern** 

The charity is a going concern.  In reaching this conclusion, the Trustees have taken account of all matters arising from the Coronavirus pandemic. Further information is provided within the Trustees Report. 

## **2.3 Income** 

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. 

Income tax recoverable in relation to investment income is recognised at the time the investment income is receivable. 

Income from investments and untaxed interest is credited when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the dividends receivable or the interest paid or payable by the bank. Rents from properties are credited and expenditure relating thereto is accounted for on an accruals basis. 

## **2.4 Expenditure** 

Expenditure is recognised once there is a legal or constructive obligation to transfer economic benefit to a third party, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is classified by activity. The costs of each activity are made up of the total of direct costs and shared costs, including support costs involved in undertaking each activity.

## **THE W A HANDLEY CHARITY TRUST** 

**NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2021** 

## **2. Accounting policies (continued)** 

## **2.4 Expenditure (continued)** 

Support costs are those costs incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the charity including governance costs incurred in connection with administration of the charity and compliance with constitutional and statutory requirements. 

Costs of raising funds are investment management costs and costs of maintaining investment properties. 

Charitable activities relate to grants payable. 

Expenditure on charitable activities is incurred on directly undertaking the activities which further the Charity's objectives, as well as any associated support costs. 

Grants payable are charged in the year when the offer is made except in those cases where the offer is conditional, such grants being recognised as expenditure when the conditions attaching are fulfilled. Grants offered subject to conditions which have not been met at the year end are noted as a commitment, but not accrued as expenditure. 

All expenditure is inclusive of irrecoverable VAT. 

## **2.5 Investments** 

Fixed asset investments are a form of financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction cost and subsequently measured at fair value at the Balance sheet date, unless the value cannot be measured reliably in which case it is measured at cost less impairment. Investment gains and losses, whether realised or unrealised, are combined and presented as ‘Gains/(Losses) on investments’ in the Statement of financial activities. 

The charity classifies land and buildings as investment properties when they are held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation, or both. Investment properties are initially measured at cost which comprises the purchase price and any directly attributable expenditure. Investment properties are subsequently remeasured to fair value (which for this purpose is market value) at each reporting date with any changes in the fair value recognised in the statement of financial activities. 

## **2.6 Cash at bank and in hand** 

Cash at bank and in hand refers to cash held at the charity's current and instant access bank accounts. 

## **2.7 Liabilities and provisions** 

Liabilities 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 of the settlement can be estimated reliably. 

Liabilities are recognised at the amount that the Charity anticipates it will pay to settle the debt or the amount it has received as advanced payments for the goods or services it must provide.

## **The endowment fund** 

As a grant making trust it is necessary to maintain the expendable endowment fund at a level sufficient to ensure a secure and predictable income flow out of which the grants are to be made. 

Although the endowment is expendable at the Trustees discretion they take the view that a grant from this source will only be made in exceptional circumstances. 

The quantum of the endowment fund has been taken to be the balance on the trust capital account at 6 April 1981 being the earliest available figure. 

A transfer of £130,000 was made from the capital account to the income account this year. 

## **The income fund** 

The Trustees current policy is, and for some time has been, to distribute all of the income arising whilst retaining a balance of undistributed income from earlier years to ensure that in the event of the cessation or material fall in the income stream the trust could continue to operate whilst giving grantees due notice of reductions in future grants. The Trustees are of the opinion that the balance of undistributed income at 31 March 2021 remains sufficient for this purpose.
