RICHARD HENRY HOLMES MASONIC BENEVOLENT FUND

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025

The trustees present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 30 June 2025. The trustees have adopted the provisions of 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).

OBJECTIVES AND ACTIVITIES

The objects of the fund are:

Public benefit

The Charity Commission has set out general principles to be used in assessing the public benefit of UK charities. To ensure it meets these principles, the Trust must be able to demonstrate that its work benefits the public or a section of the public, that people on low incomes are able to benefit, and that any private benefit is incidental. In exercising their powers and duties, the trustees have given due consideration to the Charity Commission's guidance on public benefit.

ACHIEVEMENTS AND PERFORMANCE

All requests from Freemasons for assistance during the period were able to be met from the fund.

Total expenditure including donations amounted to £281,189 compared to £212,829 in 2024 which meant that the net deficit for the year before movements on investments amounted to £63,556 compared to a deficit of £20,354 in 2024.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF RICHARD HENRY HOLMES MASONIC BENEVOLENT FUND

Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Richard Henry Holmes Masonic Benevolent Fund

I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of Richard Henry Holmes Masonic Benevolent Fund (the Trust) for the year ended 30 June 2025.

Responsibilities and basis of report

As the charity trustees of the Trust you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 ('the Act').

I report in respect of my examination of the Trust's accounts carried out under Section 145 of the Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5)(b) of the Act.

Independent examiner's statement

I have completed my examination. I confirm that no material matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:

  1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Trust as required by Section 130 of the Act; or

  2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or

  3. the accounts do not comply with the applicable requirements concerning the form and content of accounts set out in the Charities (Accounts and Reports) Regulations 2008 other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination.

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements

The financial statements of the charity, which is a public benefit entity under FRS 102, 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)', Financial Reporting Standard 102 'The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland' and the Charities Act 2011. The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention, with the exception of investments which are included at market value, as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).

Going Concern

The financial statements are prepared on the going concern basis. In the opinion of trustees, no material uncertainties exist about the charity's ability to continue.

Income recognition

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.

Donations are recognised when the charity has received the donation or the charity has been notified in writing of both the amount and settlement date.

Legacy gifts are recognised on a case by case basis following the granting of probate when the administrator/executor for the estate has communicated in writing both the amount and settlement date. In the event that the gift is in the form of an asset other than cash or a financial asset traded on a recognised stock exchange, recognition is subject to the value of the gift being reliably measurable with a degree of reasonable accuracy and the title to the asset having being transferred to the charity.

Interest on funds held on deposit is included when receivable and the amount can be measured reliably by the charity; this is normally upon notification of the interest paid or payable by the bank. Dividends are recognised once the dividend has been declared and notification has been received of the dividend due. This is normally upon notification by our investment adviser of the dividend yield of the investment portfolio.

Expenditure

Liabilities are recognised as expenditure as soon as there is a legal or constructive obligation committing the charity to that expenditure, it is probable that a transfer of economic benefits will be required in settlement and the amount of the obligation can be measured reliably. Expenditure is accounted for on an accruals basis and has been classified under headings that aggregate all cost related to the category. Where costs cannot be directly attributed to particular headings they have been allocated to activities on a basis consistent with the use of resources.

Taxation

The charity is exempt from tax on its charitable activities.

Fund structure

Unrestricted funds are available for use at the discretion of the Trustees in furtherance of the general objectives of the charity.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2025

1. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Fund structure

The fund is available for distribution as the Management Committee sees fit in accordance with the governing rules, including grants or loans to Freemasons and their dependents and the dependents of deceased Freemasons, donations or loans to local Masonic and non-Masonic charities and organisations and worthy causes within the Masonic Province of Northumberland, relief or assistance in exceptional or urgent cases and insofar as the foregoing objects have been exhausted relief or assistance within and outwith the United Kingdom.

Fixed asset investments

Investments are a form of basic financial instrument and are initially recognised at their transaction value and subsequently measured at their fair value as at the balance sheet date using the closing quoted market price. The statement of financial activities includes net gains and losses arising on revaluation and disposals throughout the year.

The trust does not acquire put options, derivatives or other complex financial instruments.

The main form of financial risk faced by the charity is that of volatility in equity markets and investment markets due to wider economic conditions, the attitude of investors to investment risk, and changes in sentiment concerning equities with particular sectors or sub-sectors.

Debtors

Debtors (including prepayments) are recognised at the settlement amount due (or amount prepaid) .

Cash at bank

Cash at bank includes cash and short term highly liquid investments.

Creditors

Creditors (including accruals) are recognised where the charity has a present obligation resulting from a past event that will probably result in the transfer of funds to a third party and the amount due to settle the obligation can be measured or estimated reliably. Creditors are recognised at their settlement amount.

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 their opening carrying value or their purchase value if acquired subsequent to the first day of the financial year. Unrealised gains and losses are calculated as the difference between the fair value at the year end and their carrying value. Realised and unrealised investment gains are combined in the Statement of Financial Activities.

Irrecoverable VAT

Irrecoverable VAT is charged against the expenditure heading for which it was incurred.
