J.N. DERBYSHIRE TRUST REPORT OF THE COUNCIL FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2022

The directors, who are also its council and trustees for the purposes of charity law, present their report and the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 5 April 2022. The trustees have adopted the provisions of the Statement of Recommended Practice (SORP) “Accounting and Reporting by Charities” (FRS 102) in preparing the annual report and financial statements of the charity.

Trustees of the charity

The trustees who have served during the year and since the year end were as follows:

PR Moore (chair)

C J George AN Little W Carver G Cowan R Whittle

Structure, governance and management

The Trust is a company limited by guarantee, incorporated on 15 September 1944 and is a registered charity, number 231907. The Trust was established by an initial gift from Job Nightingale Derbyshire, a prominent Chartered Accountant who practiced for many years in Nottingham. The Trust does not actively fundraise and seeks to continue the philanthropic work desired by the donor through the careful stewardship of its existing resources.

The members of the Council who have served during the year are shown on page 1. In accordance with Article 26, all Members of the Council retire at the Annual General Meeting and being eligible, offer themselves for re-election. Article 32 empowers the Council to appoint one or more person to be a member of Council, either to fill a casual vacancy or as an addition to the Council.

At the half yearly Council meetings, the members of the Council review the investments, reserves and risk management policies and performance and agree the allocation of charitable donations and grant awards. The day to day administration of grants and the processing and handling of applications prior to consideration by the Council is delegated to the Secretary.

At present, the Council consists of three members of the Derbyshire family, together with three senior professionals with an in-depth knowledge of the Nottingham and Nottinghamshire community. It is considered that the present composition of the Council is appropriate to the ethos and objectives of the founder. The Council keeps the skill requirements for the Trustees under review and in the event that a need for the appointment of a new Trustee is considered appropriate, the Council would appoint a nomination sub-committee to recruit the new Trustee. The ultimate decision on a selection is, however, a matter for the Council.

Whilst there is no defined induction process for newly-appointed Trustees, prospective Trustees are invited to meet with the members of the Council to learn about the history and ethos of the Trust and an introductory pack is prepared by the Secretary containing previous years’ annual reports, details of the Trust’s investments, the Memorandum and Articles of Association together with details of established policies and procedures.

J.N. DERBYSHIRE TRUST

REPORT OF THE COUNCIL (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2022

Risk management

The Trustees have considered the major business and operational risks which face the Trust and confirm that systems have been established to enable regular reports to be produced so that the necessary steps can be taken to lessen these risks. The Trustees consider the variability of investment returns to constitute the Trust’s major risk.

Objectives and activities

The objectives of the Trust are the making of charitable donations for the promotion of health, development of physical improvement, advancement of education and the relief of poverty, distress and sickness. The Trust only supports charitable projects that benefit the people of Nottinghamshire. The Council do not envisage any change in these objectives in the coming year.

Grant making policy

The Trustees invite on-line applications for grants, which fall within the objectives of the Trust. No grants are made to individuals and preference is given to those applications which benefit charities operating in the city of Nottingham or the county of Nottinghamshire.

All grant applications falling within the objectives of the Trust are considered by the Council at their half yearly meetings. In addition to the grants awarded at these meetings, the Secretary and a representative of the Trustees are authorised to make grants for special summer and Christmas events within pre-agreed budgets. Applications for summer and Christmas grants are made direct to the Secretary via email.

Details of how to apply for grants, together with the link to the online application form, are available from the Trust’s website: www.jnderbyshiretrust.com.

Achievement and performance

The Council met twice during the year to consider the appeals received and approved grants and donations totalling £154,600 (2021: £203,400) which are summarized under the following headings:

£
Old age 6,300
Physical andmental health and handicap, sight or hearing impaired 14,500
Protection and welfare ofwomen and children 18,000
Youth organisations 20,000
Reliefofpoverty 29,400
Educational 20,500
Miscellaneous 45,900
154,600

During the year the Council approved grants to 67 organisations, most of whom are based or operate in the city of Nottingham or the county of Nottinghamshire. The Council has chosen to support a wide range of projects and organisations with grants and donations ranging from £500 to £10,000.

J.N. DERBYSHIRE TRUST

REPORT OF THE COUNCIL (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2022

Public benefit statement

The section of this report above entitled “objectives and activities” sets out the aims and priorities of the Trust.

The Trustees have considered this matter, in conjunction with the guidance contained in the Charity Commission’s general guidance on public benefit, and have concluded:

  1. That the aims of the organisation continue to be charitable;

  2. That the aims and work done give identifiable benefits to the charitable sector and both indirectly and directly to individuals in need;

  3. That the benefits are for the public, are not unreasonably restricted in any way and certainly not by ability to pay and;

  4. That there is no detriment or harm arising from the aims or activities.

Financial review and investment policy

Incoming resources decreased by £12,400 from £146,753 in 2021 to £134,353 in 2022. The deficit of income over expenditure for the year amounts to £54,842 (2021: £89,061 deficit), as set out in the Statement of Financial Activities.

The financial state of affairs of the Trust is shown on the Statement of Financial Activities on page 8. The value of quoted investments increased from £5,619,253 to £5,851,302 during the year. The overall increase in the Trust’s funds was £255,892, resulting in funds at 5 April 2022 of £5,853,442.

Brewin Dolphin is appointed to manage the Trust’s investments under a discretionary management agreement in accordance with the discretionary management investment policy approved by Council. The increase in the value of the investment portfolio during the year reflects the movement in market indices. The dividends and interest received have fallen by £12,400 as a result of reduced distributions from the underlying investments during the year. The Trustees have adopted a total return approach for the investment portfolio and the objectives of the discretionary management investment policy are to ensure the creation of sufficient income and capital growth to enable the Trust to carry out its purposes consistently year by year with due and proper consideration for future needs and the maintenance of and if possible, enhancement of the value of the invested funds.

There are no ethical restrictions on investment. As a guideline no one individual investment should exceed 5% of the value of the total portfolio and the asset allocation within the portfolio should be maintained within established parameters. Investments are to have low to medium risk and investments in derivatives or hedge funds are not allowed.

Reserves policy

Except through inflation there has been no substantial increase in the value of reserves over the years. The Trustees consider that the present reserves should be maintained to ensure that sufficient income is generated to meet the increasing demands of grant applications.

Related party transactions

There were no related party transactions during the period.

The Trust is a lasting testimony to the generosity of Job Nightingale Derbyshire. Council is committed to maintaining the real value of the Trust’s investment assets whilst generating a steadily increasing income to facilitate the continued provision of charitable donations in accordance with its objectives.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2022

1 Summary of significant accounting policies

J.N. Derbyshire Trust is a company limited by guarantee, registered in England. The address of the registered office is given in the charity information page 1| of these financial statements.

The charity constitutes a public benefit entity as defined by FRS 102. The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) issued in October 2019, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102), the Charities Act 2011, the Companies Act 2006 and UK Generally Accepted Accounting Practice.

The financial statements are prepared on a going concern basis under the historical cost convention, modified to include certain items at fair value. These certain items include quoted investments, which are included at market value, and unquoted investments, which are stated at the Council’s valuation. The financial statements are presented in sterling which is the functional currency of the charity and rounded to the nearest £.

The significant accounting policies applied in the preparation of these financial statements are set out below.

(b) Funds

Unrestricted funds

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity and which have not been designated for other purposes.

Realised gains or losses and unrealised losses are taken to Realised Fund and unrealised gains to Revaluation Reserve.

(c) Income recognition

Investment income is accounted for on the date on which it is payable by the companies and the Bank of England.

Legacies are included when the Trust is advised by the personal representatives of an estate that payment will be made or property transferred and the amount involved can be quantified.

Donations and grants are accounted for on the dates on which they are paid or approved.

(d) Expenditure recognition

All expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all costs related to the category. Expenditure is recognised where there is a legal or constructive obligation to make payments to third parties, it is probable that the settlement will be required and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably.

«i1-

J.N. DERBYSHIRE TRUST

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED) FOR THE YEAR ENDED 5 APRIL 2022

(d) Expenditure recognition (continued)

Investment management fees are apportioned 50% to capital on the basis that over the long term investment, returns will be attributable 50% to capital and 50% to income.

(e) Support costs allocation

Support costs are those that assist the work of the charity but do not directly represent charitable activities and include accountancy, administration, investment management fees and governance costs. They are incurred directly in support of expenditure on the objects of the charity. Where support costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to cost of expenditure on charitable activities on a basis consistent with use of the resources.

The analysis of these costs is included in note 3.

(f) Debtors and creditors receivable / payable within one year

Debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in expenditure.

(g) Tax

The charity is an exempt charity within the meaning of schedule 3 of the Charities Act 2011 and is considered to pass the tests set out in Paragraph 1 Schedule 6 Finance Act 2010 and therefore it meets the definition of a charitable company for UK corporation tax purposes.
